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!)

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!)


 * Leonidas Oscar Argyris was born on February 16th in Patras, Greece. At birth, he had nothing from the knee downward for legs, so he would be raised with prosthetic ones. He was also born with two diseases called an older triplet named Diana and a younger triplet named Elina, who he had soon realized he was apart from in several different aspects of life. Their parents were Oscar and Nomiki Argyris, a Latvian-Greek wizard and Greek witch who formed a decent radio show together. They planned on raising their suddenly complicated family in Greece, as they did for years and years before moving to Wales. The Argyris' had soon retired, after realizing that caring for and raising their three children was more important than the money. They both worked part-time jobs at shops to have some sort of income, but they mostly focused on creating that loving household they had always wished for. Mostly, things were going pretty well for the triplets, until it was soon noticed that they had avoided showing any signs of magic. Their obvious separation from society, as far as their differences went, caused a decent amount of confusion and curiosity from the parents and children around them. After more relentless teasing and bullying towards them (namely Leo) started as they were getting older, they finally decided to follow their dreams and move to live to Wales when they had just recently turned ten.  It became believed that the Argyris triplets were all going to be Squibs to their supposedly Pure-Blooded parents (realistically they all knew there was some blood through the line that strayed away from this image). When they turned eleven, there wasn't an invitation to Hogwarts because none of them had displayed any sign of magic. However, a few weeks later, it happened that Leo was starting to make lights flicker and items hover, but neither Diana nor Elina showed any bits of magic. A Ministry of Magic official from the Department of Magical Education visited and delivered a belated invitation to Hogwarts just to Leo alone a while after that, leaving out both of his sisters to remain in the dust. He later began attending school without them, as they were pronounced to be Squibs, and was promptly sorted into (-).  He struggled at first without Diana and Elina there to support him, but he quickly adjusted with his older cousin Malia there. Although they rarely spoke, he was comforted by the thought that she was there to care for him when there might've been a need for it. He finally stepped out of his zone to befriend another boy named Alastair in a younger year, just when he was reaching the summer of his second year. They mostly just stuck together, without concerning themselves with what they considered to be their uselessly intimidating yearmates, until his buddy Al moved away to Germany over the summer leading to his fifth year. Once again, he was feeling alone at Hogwarts, especially with Malia having already graduated by then, but Leo was determined to fight through it for the sake of his OWLs and NEWTs.

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!


 * His model is Reece King.

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!)


 * He's a 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!)


 * Nope, he's just a generic dude!

6) What year is your character in?


 * Fifth, this upcoming year.
