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.

Kitrino is one eighth Greek, one half German, and the rest is a British mix. It's not especially important in any context - but he somehow thinks it is. His great-grandmother was not only greek herself, but also a light nymph. The family legend was that Χαρα, or Chara, the light nymph, was dared by a dark nymph to betray her clan - and join the humane world. Chara, both due to an insatiable curiosity, and a need to prove herself, did so. She found herself an employee of a local circus - one that Kitrino's great-grandfather, a pure-blood, managed. He knew, when she set rays of light across the room to dazzle guests, that it wasn't any old magic trick, and that was how they first officially met. Chara's son inherited her love for life and charisma, as well as his father's business savvy - and that was where the Perro fortune accumulated. Kitrino grew up being told all of this as a bedtime story, but it wasn't until he was six years old did he realize it was anything more than just family legend.

Kitrino was born in Berlin. His parents hadn't intended to settle down there, having the wanderlust they did, but Kitrino... happened. As Kitrino grew up, his mother homeschooled him. Bee would have nothing less than the best tutors - muggle or otherwise - to teach her son. The Perro fortune, however, was bound to run out sooner or later; in this case it was sooner. When Kitrino was six, just that happened. His father, Jared, hadn't any financial genius - nor the concept of 'healthily coping with stress'. As he grew more and more distant from his family, he came closer to the local brewery.

Bee took it onto herself to support both her son and the man-child that was now her husband, having been cut off from her own - much smaller - family wealth. She wasn't used to manual labor in the least, so it was only a matter of time before she wore herself down. Bee had fallen down the stairs whilst coming down the stairs in their apartment, and had badly sprained her ankle. Kitrino, hearing a cloud clatter - then a scream, had rushed to help her. Hugging her tightly, snot and tears running down his face, he had fixed her ankle.

Now, Kitrino was boy wonder. Five dollar admission - tips for cuteness - and he would heal whatever malady you had. Truthfully, he loved the attention, and would make the 'Healing Process' quite theatrical. Given that Kitrino would usually set up shop outside of a church, he would first require the injured to list any and all sins in order to 'open up and let good energy in'. Then Kitrino would close his eyes - so no one would see them burn yellow - and mutter some gibberish. He intended for it to sound more like the incantations he remembered his father using, but it sounded more like a cow learning to speak; long vowels, almost always ending in 'ooo'. More often than not, it was a placebo effect, or no effect at all, but that isn't to say he didn't try. He was, however, permanently turned off from the idea of becoming a doctor, knowing that he could only do so much to help, and that it would never be enough.

After four months, they had enough extra money to move in with Bee's family, the Abel's, in Munich. Jared was not invited to join them, and Kitrino was no longer boy wonder. The Abel's were muggles, so magic was no longer encouraged, either, but he didn't forget. Private school wasn't to his liking - too restrictive, and too competitive - but he still made as many friends as possible and comforted himself with the thought that he'd probably return to homeschooling anyways. Kitrino and his mother would often go on holiday in the UK, as Bee had always adored being there - her birthplace. Kitrino would eventually get a tutor in order to learn English, and he would begin spending both summer and winter break in the UK.

Instead, he was shipped off to a boarding school when he was 11 - Durmstrang. Bee saw boarding school as a chance for him to grow as a person, to learn independence and responsibility - and hopefully not turn into his father. During his schooling, he had several girlfriends, and learned the value of hard work. Other people's hard work, that is. He became well versed in the art of charisma, and, in some cases, bribery. And he thought private school had a heavy workload. Against his mother's wishes, he dropped out midway through his sixth year - as soon as he turned 17. He was subsequently given 200 galleons, the name of a muggle homeless shelter - should he need it, everything he could pack in his school trunk, and was promptly cast off once he returned home. If he didn't take his education seriously, Bee would not coddle him any longer.

At first, he saw it as a true opportunity to explore. Surely she couldn't be serious? He took a train from Munich to Paris - then to London. Until he realized he hadn't much money left... and his mother was completely serious.

Now he resides in Magnus Diaetim and seeks to find work for the Daily Prophet. Or really, anyone else that will take him.

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?

Kitrino is a bit of a maverick - or at least he tries to be. He, himself, is easily impressed, easily distracted, and rather naive. He hasn't grown up at all, nor does he want to, and one might think he's constantly thinking - "Oooh! Shiny!" He's all for living in the moment, explaining his fickle and flirtatious tendencies. Kitrino says what people want to hear, and seeks to be as polite and charismatic as possible. By default, he is overly generous, attention seeking, and caring.

Durmstrang, however, brought out a harsher side to him - brutally honest, selfish, and unrelenting. It occasionally surfaces, especially in cases when he has to buckle down and get some serious work done.
