Forum:Cade Rivers

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.

Cade Rivers is the eldest child, and he won't let you forget it, of Olivia and Richard Rivers, four years senior of his younger sister Avery Rivers (yes, the beater of Puddlemere United, although he's not proud) and is now the manager of the semi-finalist 2025 Quidditch World Cup squad, the Ballycastle Bats. The Rivers parents, both rather friendly and giving Hufflepuff alumna of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, seemed to have at least some Gryffindor blood running in their veins as they were very keen explorers and travellers throughout the British Isles and beyond. When they weren't travelling, they lived in the wizarding area of Brighton, England, not far from the famous beach.

He was, not unlike his sister later, born on the side of their road as Richard reluctantly used a little magic (they hated to do so outside of their own home) to get them home safely from where they had been travelling just north of London. Cade Emmett Rivers is, in his esteemed opinion, the most damn amazing thing to ever happen to them, (I'm the best worst thing that ever happened to you, yeah, best, worst thing oh, oh...) But that's simply just him taking the full, full truth and pouring some out, as his sister would testify that she, Avery Amelia Rivers, was actually the most damn amazing thing to ever happen to them - on the side of the same road four years later, when they were travelling just north of London.

Cade was not best pleased to have a little sister; he had proved to have a passion for flying since he got his first toy broomstick, and a talent for getting his own way, but now it seemed this 'little sister' Avery was going to become the new Cade. She seemed to have a similar flair for flying, and while he'd have to deal with her spontaneous singing, by her first year he got her well and truly up, up, up and away. He had been sorted into Slytherin and become a beater in first year, so when she became his beating doppelganger and he was captain, the Rivers duo were impressive and never disappointed even when they ultimately lost the game. For the two years Avery and Cade played together they won the Quidditch Cup; even after graduation Cade helped Avery out with her complicated crush on Gryffindor chaser Ciara Scott. It did always frustrate him that she supported Puddlemere United instead of the Ballycastle Bats.

Upon graduation he was scouted by the Ballycastle Bats to join them as a beater, and played for them, half hoping that Avery would join him. But when she graduated, she was picked up by her dream team Puddlemere United, along with Ciara Scott. Beating against his sister instead of with her was difficult, and on several occasions they have hospitalised each other in finals and games, and this went on for a long five years before, at the age of twenty-seven he retired. He had a managing career in America for a while, before when the former Ballycastle Bats manager retired and he was picked up to manage for the 2025 World Cup after his very successful managing for the previous two years. How he got it was a bit of a blur for him, but everyone knows one of his priorities is to always beat Puddlemere United into the dust.

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?

Cade is not too much unlike his sister, you could say that was from spending a lot of time around each other. He enjoys satire, a good game, and rivalry, and won't stand for anything less than your best effort. He is a bit of a charmer, people tell him he's a ladies' man (at which he laughs, because he is a men's man, thank you very much,) and he's always had a particular ease at getting his way. He doesn't shout, he gets across what he needs or wants in a persuasive, explanatory way, and that's what makes him so communicative and a great manager (except when he's in the managers' box, at which time he has very little choice.) He can be very laid back and personal with his team members, he feels like the closeness will make them easier to know, and to work with - he's not one to hesitate to get up there and practice with his players.

He has a habit to laugh, a lot, and make jokes in a way his sister doesn't. Like his sister he has a very...specific vocabulary when he's not coaching, it comes with your doppelganger. He definitely does not like Puddlemere United, they stole his very favourite sidekick from him, and will do anything he has to to beat him into the dust - even if it means being a little reckless or brave. (He's also so much more at ease in the air, and hates water, but tell nobody, okay?)

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!)

Pure-Blood. His sister is Puddlemere United beater Avery Rivers.

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 likes? Part or half of that magical race counts! (Remember, you cannot have an "exotic" characters as your first two characters!)

No.

5) Describe your character's profession. Do you plan to enroll your character into the Ministry of Magic? Does your character not work? Is your character a teacher?

He is the manager of the British and Irish Quidditch team, the Ballycastle Bats.

6) Describe your character's marital status. Is your character single or married? What is the spouse's name? Any kids?

He's single, homosexual, and ready to mingle.
