Forum:Donatello Bellucci

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.

Strengths: Donatello has very powerful magic, is an animagi, good at pranks, kind, trusting, supportive, helpful, makes the best smores

Weaknesses: He is extremely gulible, too trusting, naive, good at pranks, doesn't know when to give people space, utterly positive

Overall, he's one of the friendliest people you'll ever meet. He's always looking out for others, even at his own expense. He likes to believe in people even if they give him every reason in the world not to. He has a child-like personna but that's what makes him so easy to love.

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?

Donatello doesn't have many long-term goals. He is too much like a child to think past tomorrow. His current goal is to be happy, but more importantly, to make others happy. He hopes to change the world one smile at a time.

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

He would go rollar blading or bowling with his siblings, grab some pizza for dinner, watch a movie all cuddled on the couch, and finish the night off with smores. He'd definitely include some pranking throughout the day with Dante. He loves his family, so, ideally he'd spend every moment with them.

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


 * 1) His wand because he uses magic on the daily - probably too much
 * 2) His brother - not really a possession, but he's not going anywhere without him
 * 3) His skateboard because it's his main mode of transportation and he loves to skate
 * 4) The super soft pillow Aurora gave him for Christmas one year
 * 5) Favorite flannel that he often ties around his waist when he is skateboarding

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

The foster care system - in the wizarding world and outside it. There are too many kids being tossed from house to house or sometimes worse. He wants everybody to have the chance to be happy.

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

Donatello really wants to be in whatever house Dante is in, but he doesn't really mind being thrown wherever - except Ravenclaw. He's too dumb for that mess.

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!)

Nate is a smol lil bean to be honest. He always has a bright outlook on things, unlike his twin. He looks for the best in people and really believes in people and their dreams. He's definitely a believer, but that gets him in trouble sometimes. He's extremely gulible and naive. He can be quite oblivious at times. Basically, he's a cinnamon roll and needs to be protected. It really is true that some of the kindest people have been treated the worst. At least, that's how it is in Nate's case. He's one of the kindest souls on the planet. He'll help anyone if they ask for it - and even when they don't. He's that guy that pulls over to help someone on the side of the road, meanwhile someone goes behind him and steals the car he just pulled over in. He's kind to a fault. Despite his kindness, Donatello loves pranks. He and Dante always pull off the best pranks at school as well as at home. They definitely have a mischeivious streak, and quite often get into trouble. He's always one for an adventure, and he doesn't let the rules stop him from having fun. Overall, he's one of the friendliest people you'll ever meet. He's always looking out for others, even at his own expense. He likes to believe in people even if they give him every reason in the world not to. He has a child-like personna but that's what makes him so easy to love.

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!)

Donatello Lorenzo was born on June 21 to Guila and Piero Bellucci in Lucca, Italy. He was the fourth born of the children, but only by a mere couple of minutes. Soon after Nate was born, their mother gave birth to his twin Dante. After the twins came their youngest brother Nico, but his life came at the expense of Guila's. The birth had taken their mother's life. Their father was left to raise a newborn babe, a set of toddler twins, and three more children alone.

With their father struggling with six children, he turned to always asking neighbors for help, and to drinking for relief. After showing growing signs of instability, one of the neighbors had taken the children, and called protective services. That was when the children were thrown into the foster care system. Donatello was still young at the time and had a hard time understanding what was going on. His mortal fear was to be separated from his siblings - especially Dante. But luckily, Aurora found a way to convince the foster care system to keep them all together.

Before the younger kids were able to attend Beauxbatons, the family moved to England, and were prepared to attend Hogwarts instead. Nate had his first magic sign at a young age when he was pulling a prank on Stefano. He had set up a small paint bucket over the door way to fall on top of his brother when he should open the door. Unfortunately for Donatello, Stefano predicted his prank and side-stepped the bucket. Unfortanately for Stefano, he didn't predict his brother utilizing magic to move the bucket mid-fall to land right on him. Nate thought it was hilarious. Stef thought he was going to go to jail for murder.

The foster families that had followed their father's abandonment of the children were less than ideal. Some were right-out abusive, other neglectful, and some clearly favoring their blood-related children. Overall, the Bellucci kids had to protect each other. It was them against the world. Despite their bad circumstances, the twins were actually good kids. Sure, they were mischeivous, but they had good souls. Nate always had a better outlook than Dante though. He looked for the best in people, but was often let down time and time again.

The Bellucci family is known to produce very powerful wizards as well as some of the weakest - they are quite the anomaly. Luckily, the twins were gifted with great power. Such great power that when they got older, 15 to be exact, they were able to accomplish something incredible for wizards, let alone wizards of their age. They conquered the skill of transforming into an animagi. The pair could transform into Siamese Cats that looked identical, save for a few minor differences. They've never registered with the Ministry however, and they keep their ability on the down low. They hope to keep it that way.

Over the years, their eldest sister Aurora grew increasingly protective of the family, and eventually attempted to gain custody over her younger siblings but was refused. Soon enough, Donatello and Dante were old enough to go to Hogwarts and escape their unfortunate home life for a while. Eventually, circumstances allowed Aurora to follow through with gaining custody and the Bellucci kids all moved into her apartment in Lincliff. Happily Ever After, right? Nate sure hopes so.

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 Max Schneider

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!)

Half-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!)

They're also really good at pranking, but he doesn't have any real great skills other than that.
