The Character's Background

1) Give a description of your character's personality. It must be at least two paragraphs long, seven sentences each. Arthur is highly socially awkward - but when he makes friends out of someone else, he has a tedency to stick to them for life. He's rather actually funny, if you think weird puns and stupid fart jokes are funny that is, and he loves learning new things - about everything. He enjoys class work actually, but that doesn't mean that he's good at whatever he tries necessarily. He just enjoys busy work, to keep his mind & hands busy, and his mother thinks he'd make a good herbolgist with that in mind, but he himself doesn't really know what he's good at when he goes to Hogwarts- and thus, is quite open-minded to suggestions on that front. He tends to keep his head low in class, and is actually prettty quiet & well mannered, always saying please and thank you. He doesn't tend to like drama and keeps his head down low most of the time, in order to avoid it - but regardless, he loves to learn, about anything, from anyone, as long as their a viable source of infomantion and don't mislead him or feed him farce infomation. He also enjoys reading - historical fiction, mind you, and writing, as a hobby. He's also a bit of a teacher's pet, admittely - not that's a bad thing or anything. He's also a bit soft around the edges around people his own age, and thus likes older people. In his mind, older people mean less drama, considering they have more experience with social things, but he could easily be wrong about this, keep in mind, he's a naive, gullible child. Children can be wrong, and he's no expection to this rule of thumb. He's a bit naive too, even though he's smart enough in the classroom and such, about people's nature. He doesn't really understand people, seeing as though he's shy and quiet-mannered, this boy has alot of social anxiety making him act somewhat oaflishly around folks. Nature wise, he's very sweet though. He's always considerate of people's space, and does somewhat care for what people think of him.

2) Write about the history of your character. How did they grow up? Is there an incident that made them the way they are? It must be at least three paragraphs long, seven sentences each. He was born to two middle-classed Pure Bloods in England on December 10th - his mother was a Minstry woman at the deptartment of Mysteries whilst his father was a teacher at Hogwarts. He taught Defense Against The Dark Arts, and was considered a rather popular teacher - as a father though, he was a good one to his three young children - himself being the eldest amongst them. His father was formerly a Gryffindor at Hogwarts, as he was so proud of. He didn't instill his bravery into his eldest son, no, he was a shy awkward little one, like his Hufflepuf of a mother. Yes, his mother was indeed a Hufflepuf, seeing as though she was one of those mothers that filled the house with the fresh scent of cookies, and enjoyed doing house work by hand even though as a Witch, she could easily use magic in order those sordid tasks for herself, but no, she heavily believed in the ethitics of hard work and such. The mix of the two led to him wanting to be different than them - than his siblings, his younger brother was hot-headed and robust much like his father, whilst the youngest of the bunch was as Hufflepufflish as possible. Whilst he excelled at magic, and was gifted with it at a very young age, his sister started to look like a Squid. There was no signs of her showing magic potiental, nothing actually, and thus their parents concluded that she was Squid - but they weren't as conserative as the rest of the Pure Bloods about Squids, and let her stay upon their golden-leafed family forevermore. She was never mistreated by their parents or anything, but after that Arthur felt highly sympthatic for her, even though he was about to go off to Hogwarts in his own will. However, they did all live a rather cozy life in England; with their house being a rather comferable, cozy house in the country, away from the hussle and bussle of city life. His mother and father wanted to raise a family away from his mother's responsiblites as a Minster, away from it all - even the muggles, even though they at least used electricity in their humble abode. They weren't too backwards - and even considered pretty progressive by the standards of the Pure Blood community. That kind of attiude allows him to not care about whenever someone is a muggle born or pure blood, he just sees them as people not by their blood type or what have you. When he got his letter - whilst he was reading some muggle book, no doubt, he thinks Muggle books are a great source of entertaiment, he was thrilled. He was so thrilled in fact, that he ran right straight to his father to tell him the news, seeing as it was Christmas break when a owl delivered to him. His sister cried about that, seeing as though it was highly unlikely that she'd be joining him there - you see, he's eleven whilst she's eight, and whilst her parents might've assumed that she was a late bloomer, none of the two of thm were. Maybe, she might be a witch, but for now, her parents consider her a squid.

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! Levi Miller, if he's not available.

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 characters from the Harry Potter Universe!) Pure Blooded

5) Does your character have any special abilities? Is he or she of a different magical race, such as Veela, Vampire, Werewolf or the like? Part or half of a 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? 1st

7) The Sorting Hat has been known to take house preference into consideration. If your character could select one house they believe they are best suited for, what would it be and why?

OOC Questions

B. Whilst the first two questions will not affect the character's house (and are mandatory), the others are designed specifically to help users come up with their character's ideal job (and are optional).

1) Is this your first character?


 * A. This is my first character. (techinally)


 * 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"?

3) What would people who know your character well say they're really good at?

Herbology but he's like eleven so...It might you know, change.

4) What do they really want to avoid in their future job/career? Do they hate working in an office? Do they hate the field?

idk

5) Aside from family and peers, what motivates your character the most in life? What drives their passion?

6) Where does your character's weaknesses lie?

7) Wand cores and woods speak volumes about a person's character. What is your character's wand? Why does it answer to them?

Cedar Wood, Unicorn Hair? Just taking a guess.

'''Is it okay If I just ingore things I don't have an awnser too? I don't know.. what motivates him yet. Idk his weakness. If he were older, than I'd probaly be able to awnser them truthfully. But you see, I don't. Maybe through Roleplaying I'll be able to come to these conclusions, lol. '''
