The Character's Background

1) Give a description of your character's personality. It must be at least two paragraphs long, seven sentences each.

"A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one."

- boy idk


 * Tony has never been the brightest tool in the shed, but without a doubt he's always tried his best to be good at everything he does. While it's very difficult for him to achieve perfection, especially with such a short attention span, he's very versatile and adjusts as quickly as can to meet whichever needs.

2) Write about the history of your character. How did they grow up? Is there an incident that made them the way they are? It must be at least three paragraphs long, seven sentences each.


 * There are many things Kira Prescott hoped for, longed for and anticipated when her parents relocated from Orlando, Florida, to the Bronx, in New York. But falling in love with a foreigner that bore the cutest Londoner accent wasn't one of them. She had dreams and aspirations that included traveling the world and studying at Harvard. None of it included big, chocolate brown eyes and a breathtaking smile, and certainly didn't include a little boy with a jaunty grin and mischievous eyes. Tyler Blake was her love, her muse, her everything. But he was also her downfall.


 * Kira had everything going for her. She granted in the top 10% of all students in the public system within New York, was enjoying her gap year, already had offers of full rides for most of the Ivy League universities, and was slowly but surely building a good life for herself. All of it came tumbling down one evening when she was returning from a concert in Madison Square Garden. Tyler Blake was a name known by many in both the wizarding and no-maj worlds, known best for bringing to an end a heist that went down in what just happened to be one of the biggest banks of America - the same one used by wizards and no-majs alike. He was an LEO, and a good one too, seeing as he also held a respectable position in the NYPD.


 * He was out in patrol that very night when he noticed there was a car on the side of the road with a busted tire in what happened to be one of the shittiest neighborhoods to be in - especially at night. The owner - a biracial young woman, he soon came to realize - was worrying over the sure punishment she'd be receiving from her parents, despite being an adult enjoying her gap year. And what kind of auror and cop would he be if he didn't extend an offer of help? Well, she took the offer and let him help her change the tire. One thing led to the other, though, and they ended up hooking up. The only reason she got off with a warning from her parents, she knows, is because she was escorted home by a cop.


 * That evening was the start of something beautiful. One date led to the another, one romantic gesture led to another, and one move led to another. It was like this that Anthony Sebastian Prescott came to be. He was an oops baby, but was fortunate enough that his parents refused to abort him despite the insistence of Kira's parents. For God's sake, she was a sophomore at Harvard University, and she wasn't even married to the father of her child. How would she be able to raise a child? How would she be able to provide for them both? She knew she couldn't rely on her parents, so what was there to do?


 * Because both mother and father were unwilling to give their son up for adoption, Tyler renounced his job at MACUSA and took paternity leave at the NYPD. He knew when the time came, he could return for it. But for now, his son needed him. Thus, he focused more on his girlfriend and child, and when the time came, he became a stay at home father. By the time his paternity leave, vacation days and sick days were all up, little Tony was old enough to start going to a little daycare. Tyler returned to the NYPD and Kira was able to finish her BD in Biology. Continuing to live off the scholarship she had, she was able to pursue a career in medicine. Unfortunately, this separated her for a long time from her son and boyfriend, but it was something she had to do for herself.


 * As a little boy, Tony was a very active kid who enjoyed interacting with others. Although he was usually never to any good, he was also the kind of little boy that ran to get the first aid kit whenever another toddler broke into tears. He wasn't the brightest kid going into preschool and then muggle primary, but he always tried his hardest, and at the end of the day, that effort was well-rewarded by both his father and mother. He had an overall fairly easy life, but it all went to shit one day when he was nine years old. The day itself was a blur, but he remembers somehow throwing his father out of his room... without actually touching him? Tyler ended up with a bruised rib that day and a wounded ego. (Oh, and single, too.)


 * Throughout his eleven, twelve years dating Kira, not once did he bother mentioning he was a wizard, let alone a wizard who had come to America in hopes of moving on from his first love. Honesty was key in a relationship, and Kira felt like theirs didn't have that. So she ended it. That break didn't last long, though. She may have been mad, but at the end of the day she needed help with her warlock son. (Plus she was still madly in love with her ex, so that was that.) Of course, this conversation led to a plethora of other conversations where they properly reconnected and were able to find out things they'd previously not know. They better than before. Stronger.


 * When Tony was eleven, he received his letter of acceptance to Ilvermorny School. His mother, who by then was already a doctor specializing in orthopedic surgeon, had the funds to send him there. So she did. He arrived that first of September at Ilvermorny School with an excited grin and happy eyes. Upon arrival, both the statue of Pukwudgie and the statue of Wampus lit up, claiming him as their own. The choice then rested in Tony's hands, who ultimately decided to join Wampus House. Despite being severely different from the brutes of his house, Tony thrived at Ilvermorny, becoming a great wizard worthy of the Prescott name. In his sixth year, it was announced his school would be crossing the Atlantic and partaking in the Triwizard Tournament for the very first time. Interested in bringing honor to his house and school, he sought his parents' approval and joined the delegation headed to the host school: Hogwarts.
