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.

Magic/being a wizard — If he didn't have magic he would be nothing.

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?

Yes, and it's only going to get better — His life has been perfect and he doesn't think it will stop.

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

Relaxing, maybe eating some of his favorite foods — He's kind of lazy and would expect it served to him by someone else.

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

Money — Currency is important everywhere, it's what people use to get things they want and need.

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

He wouldn't change anything.

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

He doesn't want to be in Hufflepuff or in Ravenclaw. He'd rather be in Slytherin, but he thinks he's always thought he was going to end up in Gryffindor.

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!)

Omari is too carefree and reckless for his own good. He has this way of making things work out for him. Whether he's fooling everyone into thinking he's lucky or he's actually more competent than he's willing to let on. The odds seem to naturally be in his favor. It's quite possible he is the same high functioning level of nerd as his sister. However he might have literally lucked out in the genetics department and scooped up all the talent and little of the actual motivation to back it up.

He's playful and charming, he loves to chat with people about anything big or small. He's got idle hands and he's good a breaking things. He's broken a number of bones in his body. He has even bent, and splintered his wand a number of times, the first day he got it in fact. He doesn't seem to know his own strength and often can't tell when he's been injured as immediately as some others might. He's got a sense of mischief that's written all over his face.

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!)

Omari is a Pure-Blood wizard born in Kent during the summer of 2024 to Devon Calder and India Hammond. His father was a Hogwarts graduate, an inventive Potioneer turned brilliant Healer. Devon left the Calder family business so that he could pursue his passion. His mother was a wildly successful Uagadou graduate who became a famous Auror for the Burkinabé Ministry of Magic. She was forced into early retirement following an injury that almost took her life. His parents met while his father was starting his work abroad. Six years after their first interaction Devon and India started a family. The new parents chose Swahili/Egyptian names for their twins; Neema and Omari. Omari is the youngest, he is also the only boy in his immediate family. The heir to the Calder throne. Devon took it easy on both his children. The quintessential good dad, he didn't want either child to have the terrible experience he had with his family. Omari's had everything handed to him since the day he was born. As an infant he was caudled too often, the spoiled rotten effect of giving him everything he wanted. It continued far longer than it should have.

He was six when he discovered his magic. His mother knew he was going to be a very special child. It was her fault he developed such an over inflated ego so quickly. He was arrogant, assuming that all magic would come easily to him. His mother was a powerful witch, his father was a very capable wizard in his own way. He knew that same sort of magic ran in his veins. He felt entitled to wield it at his discretion. He wasn't ever brash enough to do so, that meant he had to keep his anger under control when he got frustrated. That didn't often end well. He developed his knack for breaking things when his magic revealed itself. Plates, cups, toys, windows, and doors. He broke almost everything in the house for a year straight. He still has slip ups although he's managed to work on his reflexes to try to catch some of the things he may have moved or lost control of.

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!)

Pure-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!)

No.

6) What year is your character in?

Second

OOC Questions

C. These do not affect what house you're sorted to, but everybody must answer them!

1) Is this your first character?


 * A. This is my first character.

''':B. No, this is not my first character.'''

2) If your answer to the previous question is B, how many characters do you have? How many of them are "exotic" (of a different magical race/have a special ability)?
