Forum:Benjamin "Ben" Edwards

1) Give a short history of your character. How did they grow up? Is there an incident that made them the way they are? etc. Benjamin grew up in the outskirts of Edinburgh with his parents Luke and Clarisse Edwards. Benjamin's mother was a pure-blood witch who was in Slytherin House coming from the family of the Patterson's. Luke was a half-blood in Ravenclaw. Luke and Clarisse met in Hogwarts and were "Hogwarts Sweet-hearts" marrying soon after graduation. They had Benjamin when they were 20 on April 4th.

'''Clarisse had plenty of wealth in her family, so the home that Benjamin grew up in was quite large. Benjamin lived far from any civilization, but sometimes they would go into towns, and he'd play at parks at in Muggle neighbourhoods and he'd met some people. Ben was a smart boy for his age, and had a thirst for education. '''

'''When Ben was 11, he attended Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Ben was sorted into Slytherin, like his mother, and he liked it. He enjoyed himself. At the end of his school year, they'd discovered that "You-know-who" had returned. Ben was worried, his parents as well, but he stayed in school still. His father said that no matter what, Hogwarts would be needed for Ben.'''

'''During the summer, before Ben would be going into his seventh year at Hogwarts, he was strolling down Diagon Alley with his parents when a Death Eater had taken Ben's dad. They suspected Luke of being a Muggle Born. They questioned his magical abilities. Somehow they'd proven Luke guilty, that he couldn't do magic, and he went to Azkaban. His mother, out of anger, decided to join the Order and that Ben would not go to Hogwarts. '''

'''Because of this, Ben's mother was murdered. Ben was able to fight off the Dark Wizard who'd killed her as he tried to leave, for he came for Ben too, and he killed the Dark Wizard. Ben knew that the Ministry would be going after Ben because of everything that was going on, so Ben went into hiding. Ben hid around protecting himself through forests, and things like that. Ben even once ended up in The Forbidden Forest at Hogwarts, and got to chat with one of his good friends. '''

'''Ben stayed hidden, but he also learned some new tricks. Ben had to learn how to defend himself from the Death Eaters. He trained, he fought, he did all that he could to be ready for what the Death Eaters could throw his way. He had to be ready. To save himself. Ben met someone through his travels who taught him how to fight dark wizards like Voldemort. Their actions, their plays, and their defense. '''

'''His name was Arbol. He was not a wizard, but he was a squib, also being hunted by snatchers. He was trained with a bow and arrow and knew many different forms of fighting styles. He taught Ben how to climb, to hunt, and Arbol even taught him how to kill. Ben went through Five years of training with Arbol. Ben finished his last year at Hogwarts after the "Battle of Hogwarts" and continued his training with Arbol in the trees after.'''

'''Ben promised himself that he would avenge his mother and his father (his father had been killed later in Azkaban). He was going to get back at the sort of people who had killed his parents. To save the wizarding world from those who are trying to destroy it. '''

'''Ben is now the PA to Jade Knight at the ministry, and no one knows of his secret identity as "The Justifier". So far, Ben is just getting back into the world again, after many years of hanging low. He's done his observations and discovered what he needs, and knows who his targets are. He will not be seen as "The Justifier".'''

2) Give a short description of your character's personality. Are you noble or sneaky? Arrogant or humble? Ben is sneaky and secretive about what he does when he leaves work early or disappears into the darkness. He is a smart man, brave, and protectful. He is very loving and caring although he's not wonderful at showing it. Ben has lots of anger for what happened to his parents, and his friends who knew him well know that and try to keep their distance sometimes.

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 likes? Part or half of that magical race counts!

5) Describe your character's profession. Do you plan to enroll your character into the Ministry of Magic? Does your character not work? Is your character a teacher? PA to Jade Knight. When "The Justifier", he attempts to kidnap those who have done wrong doings and bring them to the Ministry so they can be taken care of in Azkaban.
