Character Description:
Alester is average height for a first year, but is considerably paler and
skinnier than his classmates. He has slight dark circles under his eyes. He
steps quietly when he walks, and tends to cover his mouth when he smiles. His
black hair is shaggy, like he missed his last haircut. Alester's brow is
often furrowed. He is smart and keeps to himself. He is often seen in the
library or the potions classroom.
Personality Outline:
Alester had a quiet childhood before he came to Hogwarts, and is glad to be
around so many other children. Although he is shy, he is friendly when
approached and open to socializing with all kinds of students. He is not
biased towards half-bloods or muggle-borns. He has a soft spot for unloved
animals like rodents, reptiles, and spiders. Alester is quite studious and
would rather spent time in the library than outside. He likes reading muggle
Sherlock Holmes stories and anything about wizards in faraway lands. His
friends will notice he is quick to learn accents and mannerisms, and does
funny immitations of professors. He doesn't do this often though, since he's
afraid of getting in trouble.

Background
Mother:
Elmira Crump, 32, Shop Assistant in Diagon Alley (a smaller book shop). She is
a linguist and uses her spare time to study new languages.
Father:
Unknown. Twelve years ago, Elmira went on a language exchange program.
Something mysterious happened there, and her memory was wiped. However, when
she came back, she was pregnant with Alester. She doesn't remember any
specifics about where she was going either. The incident is a cold case, still
nominally under investigation by the ministry.
Siblings:
None.
Country of Origin:
London, England.
Heritage:
Assumed to be pureblood, but his father's lineage is unknown.
History:
Alester grew up happy but somewhat lonely. His mother's mysterious past made
other witches and wizards a bit uncomfortable around her, and she didn't have
many friends... Especially none with children Alester's age. He was raised on
wizarding stories and exotic muggle books. His mother taught him he could
truly be anything he wished, but Alester feels she may have been exaggerating.
His lack of athleticism never bothered him much, but it was cause for some
bullying in school. Alester made up for it by concentrating on his studies and
throwing in an occasional joke or impression to keep on people's good side.
He is very much looking forward to attending Hogwarts.It's an opportunity to
turn over a new leaf, and finally learn real wizarding. Alester is a cunning
puzzle solver, and a passable liar... But is mostly good-hearted. His
loneliness could be exploited by others with less noble intentions. He does
have a somewhat flexible view of rules, and may break them if the ends seem
worth it.
