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!)

'''There is only one word to describe Nico Bellucci. Quiet. He's the kind of guy that really only speaks to people if they talk to him first. Unless you're family. Then he's going to talk your ears off. He is the type to really think about what he's going to say before speaking. It's what makes people think he's really this quiet kid. When he's comfortable around someone, he's more likely to smile more and not think so much about his word choices. He never shouts. He hates it more then anything in the world. '''

'''He loves learning through books. He can mark them up and take them wherever he goes. They provide a silent form of comfort that he needs at times. It's actually really helpful when it comes to his anxiety. He can focus on the feel of the book and the individual words to bring him back from out of his head. '''

'''He's often the first person he pins the blame on. In his eyes, all of his siblings hardships are because of him, so therefore he has to do anything in his power to make life easier for them. He rarely stands up for himself and takes everything said to heart. However, he's gotten to a point where he doesn't really show his emotions that often. If he does, that means he trusts you with everything he has. If you can't tell, he's loyal to a fault and won't hesitate to stand by you through anything. He's a really sweet boy who probably cares too much.'''

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!)

'''Nico Raffael Bellucci was born under unfortunate circumstances. Piero and Guila Bellucci were wonderful parents over five other children. Both were extremely excited for their sixth. It was only natural after all. If only Guila hadn't died in childbirth. A good set up right? Left you reeling there. Nico never knew his mother and due to the circumstances of his birth, he ended up causing damage to his frontal/parietal lobes which as a direct result caused the ever so wonderful Sensory Processing Disorder. '''

'''Nico only remembers the shouts and the smell of alcohol. He remembers hiding in the closet with his hands over his ears, trying to will the noise to quiet down just a bit. He remembers his head pounding and feeling like it was his fault. Maybe Dad wouldn't have been like this if he wasn't around? So, he ran next door to Miss Adria's house. He stayed there for exactly 21 minutes before his siblings (Aurora was at school) came knocking on her door and whisked him away. '''

'''Not long after, she called protective services and Aurora was sent home early for reasons he didn't know until later. '''

'''The years after were less then ideal, that's for sure. He much preferred the families that loved their blood children more then the ones that screamed and yelled and hit. However, if it wasn't for those families, he probably wouldn't have gotten his first sign of magic. Well, he probably would but not at eight years old, that's for sure. One of the Bellucci foster parents were screaming at them for one reason or another (Nico can't quite remember). It was so loud and all Nico wanted was for it to stop, to be quiet again so the headache would stop, so he could breath a bit easier. He remembers opening his eyes and seeing the source of his current suffering trying to speak but not a sound came out. They didn't stay there for long. '''

'''His older siblings told him everything he knows about magic - about how there's special relics and how they have to use a wand to properly channel it. About how they have to go to school to learn spells and how to properly control it. Nico didn't really care about that stuff. What good had magic done? It certainly didn't keep his mom alive so that their dad would've wanted him. However, he saw how his siblings smiled and congratulated him so he smiled. '''

'''He remembers the summer before he entered first year. His sister, Aurora had officially adopted them. No more bouncing from nightmare to nightmare. No more constantly covering his ears. Everything was going to be okay. The sorting ceremony didn't seem as important to him as that was. In fact, all he remembers is that he was put into (house). Now he's going to be a fourth year. Time sure flies.'''

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!

Model: Colin Ford

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!)

Pureblood

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!)

'''Not really? I mean, does Sensory Processing Disorder count?'''

6) What year is your character in?

Fourth
