The Open-Ended Questions

A. Please answer the following questions as elaborately as possible. (Remember, this part is only a requirement for your third to fifteenth character! However, if you want to have more input on where you character is sorted, then please answer #6!)

1) What would you consider to be your character's strengths, and your character's weaknesses? Elaborate on your answer.

Strength he has are that he's vocal, and can be considered a fun dramatic person to be around. Those can also be his weaknesses, as well as his over attachment to people, which can cause alienation.

2) What goals and objectives has your character set out in their life? Is it to be successful and rich? Is it to find happiness? Why?

Sawyer wants to have friends and be loved, and never have his friends leave him. His objective in life is to not be alone, and be in such an amazing place that he never has to move again.

3) What's their ideal way of spending a free day? Why so?

Making musical.ly's all day, because he loves the attention and praise he gets from them.

4) If your character could only keep 5 possessions, what would they be? Why?


 * Phone because of musical.ly
 * Wand to do magic
 * his magician handbook
 * his magician box of tricks
 * picture of his grandparents
 * His grandpa's watch

5) What one thing would your character change about the wizarding society? Why?

He might change the sleep away process of many magical schools, and make them work more like regular muggle schools.

6) What house does your character want to be in? What house does your character not want to be in? Why?

He would probably want to be in anything but slytherin and ravenclaw, because slytherin gets a bad rep, and ravenclaw seems too smart and closed off as a whole. He would prefer Gryffindor most likely, just because hufflepuff is considered by some to be the uncool house.

The Character's Background

1) Give a description of your character's personality. Are you noble or sneaky? Arrogant or Humble? Anything about your character that might help the Sorting Hat decide. (Don't worry, you can copy this onto your character page later!) (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!)

Sawyer is insecure, and has attachment issues. He tries to keep the friends he makes at whatever cost, and loyalty to him is everything for him. Even though he is shy, he pushes himself out of his comfort zone and tries to be the loudest one,often coming across as annoying. He always tries to encourage people to check out his musical.ly, or asks if they know him from somewhere. He enjoys being the center of attention, so it wouldn’t be odd for him to do out of the norm things to get attention, unless he thinks it through and feels it might jeopardize a friendship. While gossiping makes him uncomfortable, he will do it to be loved.

2) Write about the history of your character. How did they grow up? Is there an incident that made them the way they are? etc. (Again, you can copy this onto your character page later!) (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!)

Sawyer Zheng is the definition of a satellite baby. While his no show dad is a wizard, his mom is not, and it is she who had to take care of him. Unfortunately, their family was not a rich one, so for the first few years of his life, he was sent to live in China with relatives. Of course, because of this, he never truly saw his mother as his real mother. He grew a close attachment to his grandparents, the most important people in his life. When time came, he had to move back to boston and start kindergarten, despite not knowing the language or his parents really well. It was the first adventure in his life, the first real move he’d taken. In school he was shy, and because of his lack of understanding english, had a rough time. His mom cried almost everyday, because he wouldn’t talk to her, or tell her the issue.

When Sawyer turned seven, he had his first sign of magic. While in class, missing his grandparents, he changed the letters on the board into mandarin chinese characters. Everyone was confused, but explained it away with the day's heat. Having received a call from the principal, his mother sent Sawyer to live with his father, who could better bring him into the wizard culture. This was Sawyer’s second big move, and only made him more closed off. The main reason why Sawyer had never met his dad prior was because of his dead beatness, and general lack of care for himself. Despite this, his dad was a charismatic guy who eventually got Sawyer to open up. Sawyer learned about magic, and learned how to be a magician on the side, to deal with his incredulity of magic and also busy himself away from his anxiety. To provide Sawyer with a better life, his dad finally got a real job. Once it was just Sawyer alone, he found himself longing for human contact, and people to trust. He had never been an introvert perse, just shy. He took to musical.ly, and became a star on the app. This is where his false boisterous personality comes from. Now ten, turning eleven soon, he will be going into hogwarts this upcoming yea.

3) Write about your character's appearance. What do they look like? Are you planning on using a certain model for your character? If you already have a picture in mind, you can put it here!



4) Is your character a Pure-Blood, Half-Blood or Muggle-Born? Do you have any notable magical relations? (Remember, you cannot be related to important Harry Potter characters!)

Mixed Blood

5) 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 a character with special abilities/of a different magical race as one of your first two characters!)

Nah

6) What year is your character in?

Going into first year, but still 10 at the moment
