Personality
A nebbish fellow who is quite snobbish at times and will consider himself above all if he is feeling in a rather studious mood. He prefers the library to the dormitories, as the hustle and bustle disturbs him. In his spare time he loves the fine arts as Rembrant and does research on famous witches and wizards in the library.
He has a need for friends, even though he will not confess it outright. He has not had many from his first year, having ignored the lot of Ravenclaws completely and keeping to himself.

Weaknesses (3+):
-A frail boy, he can be dominated instantly

-Too quiet
Physical Description:
Light gray eyes that are like the fog that clouds in the morning, and his skin is a pale color as well. Not because he never goes outside but simply because his skin doesn’t give off a nice tan. He is five feet, ten inches and has small hands but large feet. He is left handed and so there is more strength in that hand than the left. His hair is a faint russet which contrast with his eyes, making them stand out and seem more blue than they actually are.
He has a burn across the inside of his right arm, not that big, from when he was a toddler and burned his arm on a burning stove when his mother wasn’t watching him enough. He doesn’t wear short-sleeved shirts this often for that matter, and prefers to not talk about his foolish mistakes as a child.
( Self-explanatory.)
Personality Outline:
Quiet, only because he has nothing to say to you. However, not a teacher’s pet. He doesn’t snitch frequently, and wants some friends.
Background
His mother was born in Ireland, but her own parents moved her to Britain when she was thirteen. She loved to learn, and became a photographer-assistant when eighteen, which is not very fascinating. She traveled for a period of time before meeting Nathan-Lewis Shortrime, who declared himself a wizard the moment he met her. She was a little shocked, but still loved him and after marriage came Elbinox. (I have no idea, should this be longer?)

Mother:
( Martha Shortrime, 38, house wife (a nice way for saying that she’s unemployed)
Father:
( Nathan-Lewis Shortrime, 39, violinist and Muggle teacher. )
Siblings:
( Name, age profession. )
(none)
Country of Origin:
Born in the United Kingdom, to be specific, he was born in a Bristol hospital and not a magical one.
Heritage:
Halfblood
History:
When he was born, he was born to a muggle mother and a pure-blooded father in a Britain hospital in Bristol. The father would always boast, saying that Elbinox would become a wizard when he was eleven. His mother wasn’t so fond of this idea, bluntly muttering that they “couldn’t be sure”.
Elbinox stayed the same for his first nine years of life- not many friends, unless they were deep-thinking like himself, and not much happened to him besides a burn on his arm from when he was a child. His uncle gave him a whole set of books for his tenth birthday and Elbinox took to them and finished them in about a week. His mother was going to have another child, but the baby was tragically lost in a miscarriage and to this day they do not talk of the child.
While still ten, an event happened to him though. While reading quietly in a playground, a known bully came over to him and lifted him by his legs and threw him over the side of the playground. Elbinox broke his arm, but when he looked over his shoulder, in fear of the bully coming after him, he noticed that the bully had been knocked over as well, and thrown across the opposite end of the playground. To this day he is not sure if this was a magical reflex, but it saved him trouble quite a bit.
When Elbinox turned eleven, he thought nothing really was going to happen and that his father was a bit diluted. Until the note from Hogwarts arrived at his door with the emblem seal on it. He hastily ripped it open and almost exploded with joy over being accepted into the school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. His mother appeared a bit crestfallen, although Elbinox concluded that was jealousy.
He was whisked off to Diagon Alley to gather his robes, cloak, books, owl and wand, and sat alone on the train ride to Hogwarts. He had no idea that there were other wizards in the world until now and feels a bit more open than he originally did.
