The Open-Ended Questions

A. Please answer the following questions as elaborately as possible. (Remember, this part doesn't have to be filled out if it's an expansion character!)

1) What would you consider to be your character's strengths, and your character's weaknesses? Elaborate on your answer. His strengths are his family and his weaknesses are his stubborness and lawyer-type attitude.

2) Has your character's life played out the way they wanted? Have they achieved the goals they set out for their life? Why, or why not? His life, well, hadn't exactly played out how he wanted it to, but he hasn't given up yet.

3) What's their ideal way of spending a free day? Why so? His ideal way would be working to make a better life for himself... and possibly trying to find anything on their baby sister.

4) If your character could only keep 5 possessions, what would they be? Why? Wand, Trunk, Cat, Official Documents, and one last family photo.

5) What one thing would your character change about the wizarding society? Why? He would want to make it easier for people less fortunate to get as good jobs as those who are high-society.

The Character's Background

1) Give a history of your character. History must be at least two paragraphs long. How did they grow up? Is there an incident that made them the way they are? etc. (Remember, history must at least be two paragraphs long for the first two characters, three paragraphs long for the third to eighth character, and four paragraphs long for the ninth to fifteenth character!) '''Gabriel Emmanuel Leitao has had the pleasure of being the eldest Leitao. He was born on a warm spring day in April, and basically made his own way after his siblings came along. Gabriel's father definitely lost his respect when he was 19, after putting little Calista up for adoption after their mother died in childbirth with her. Before all of this, the Leitao family was as close as can be, and definitely very attached, but all that changed very suddenly. Sadly, Gabriel wasn't there during that trying time, being a student at Beauxbatons Institute.

Growing up the eldest, he definitely tried to be there for his younger siblings after their father basically went loco and lost all of their respect. Actually, he annoyed his sister, Bianca, but enough about that. When he was seven, his magic manifested. Gabriel lifted a small set of blocks and dumped it onto his younger brother's head when he was being too annoying and refusing to leave Gabriel alone. And so, four years later, he found himself off to Beauxbatons, being placed in Ombrulune, the house of the ambitious.

Gabriel thrived at Beauxbatons, and graduated with one of the top places in his class. Now aged 23, he has successfully accomplished his lawyer training in France, and had encouraged his other family to move to England with him for a possible new start at life.'''

2) Give a description of your character's personality. Personality must be at least one paragraph long. Are you noble or sneaky? Arrogant or humble? (Remember, personality must be at least one paragraph long for the first two characters, two paragraphs long for the third to eighth characters, and three paragraphs long for the ninth to fifteenth!) '''Gabriel is a highly-respected figure in his school. He has always been known as the mediator, and is ready to help anyone who appears to need it. He is mature, having basically raised his siblings from a young age, and loves trying to help them in their lives... but he can come across, sometimes, a bit overbearing. That's something he's trying to work on!

He is observant, picking up subtle nuances that everyone else seems to miss in cases, and getting the best deal for whoever is involved. Gabriel's very well-spoken, and speeches seem to come easy to him. He loves his job, despite the many hours of schooling he had to deal with, but he has slowly begun to make a name for himself as an incredibly good lawyer despite his young age.'''

3) Are you Pure-Blood, Half-Blood or Muggle-Born? Do you have any notable magical relations? (Remember, you cannot be related to important Harry Potter characters!) Half-Blood.

4) Does your character have any special magical abilities? Or special abilities in general (photographic memory, etc.)? Is he or she of a different magical race, such as Veela, Vampire, Werewolf or the like? Part or half of that magical race counts! (Remember, you cannot have one as your first two characters!) None

5) What is your character's profession? Does your character plan to enroll your character into the Ministry of Magic? Does your character not work? Is your character a teacher? Plans to go into being a lawyer..? Or possibly Ministry.

6) Describe your character's marital status. Is your character single or married? What is the spouse's name? Any kids? He's 23 for heaven's sake! He's single, and definitely mingling.

7) What about your character's appearance? What do they look like? Feel free to write down what they look like! If you're using any FC, you can put a picture here! Please state the character's faceclaim! He's modeled by Tyler Posey.
