The Open-Ended Questions

A. Please answer the following questions as elaborately as possible. (Remember, this part doesn't have to be filled out if it's an expansion character!)

1) What would you consider to be your character's strengths, and your character's weaknesses? Elaborate on your answer.

'''If it's in full honesty, Geist's true strengths are his intellect and his caring nature. It's something he's built from so many years of being a learner (and still being one, because to him, you learn something new every single day). His caring nature came more from being with Dirk (whom he values a great deal) and being a teacher.'''

'''His main weakness would definitely be his old age. In his early fifthies, he does to some extent feel like there is so much to accomplish, but not enough time to do so.'''

2) Has your character's life played out the way they wanted? Have they achieved the goals they set out for their life? Why, or why not?

'''So far, it has. He's married to the one person he can't see himself getting away from and he does do what he has always loved. Still thinks there is more to it than that, in his eyes anyway.'''

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

'''With Dirk honestly. He'd not have it any other way.'''

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

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

The Character's Background

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. (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!)

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? (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!)

3) Are you 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.

4) 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 one as your first two characters!)

Nothing special.

5) What is your character's profession? Does your character plan to enroll your character into the Ministry of Magic? Does your character not work? Is your character a teacher?

Hoping to be a teacher next school year.

6) Describe your character's marital status. Is your character single or married? What is the spouse's name? Any kids?

Married to Dirk Blumenthal, without kids sadly.

7) What about your character's appearance? What do they look like? Feel free to write down what they look like! If you're using any FC, you can put a picture here! Please state the character's faceclaim!

His model is Peter Capaldi.
