- Winning
- Girls

Strengths (3+):
- Elliott is charming and for the most part, charismatic. He is able to woo girls and persuade those around him to believe he is more honest, more lovable, than he typically acts.
- Naturally gifted in intellect. Elliott is good at memorization and is able to retain a lot of knowledge very quickly. He is clever and can think on his feet.
- Relentless. If someone threatens him or someone he is defending, there is no way he'll go down without a fight.
Weaknesses (3+):
- Impulsive.
- Refuses to admit that he has been hurt in the past.
- Detached.
Character Description:
Teen dream, anyone? This blonde haired teenager was straight out of 'Teen Beat'- dimples, straight, white teeth, big blue eyes, and absolutely kissable lips- formed into an evil smile, of course. He was captivating, but nearly terrifying- the kind of kid you'd look away from in order to avoid being torn apart. He looked immediately like he knew everything about you- of course, he didn't... right? With the posture of a teenager- too cool for school, the features of a Calvin Klein model, and the attitude of an evil prince, Elliott was a force to be reckoned with. He appeared to have it all (appeared being a key word here), and he knew it. He looked at the world through the eyes of a kid in a candy shop- a kid with sticky fingers.
Personality Outline:
Damaged goods. Elliott, thanks to years of abuse, isn't the nicest kid on the block. Quite the contrary. While serving as a father figure for his younger sister (okay, sometimes he could behave more like a child, but- whatever- and only 'till he was eleven), Elliott was kind, protective, wise, and overall such a lovely boy- but whenever else, he was cunning, deceptive, and downright immoral at certain times. He was in it for himself- the self- pleasure. It was a mixture of emotional damage and just regular teenage boy antics. He'd grow out of it in time- and could possibly be coaxed into kindness with the right touch, but as of right now? God bless anyone who had to deal with him.

Background
Mother:
Wendy McGin, [DECEASED- would be 40 years old], Librarian.
Father:
Simon Darling, 49, Shop-Owner of "Soap Opera", a soap store in Scotland- now an inmate.
Siblings:
Simon Alexander Darling Jr., 1. Cilia June Darling, 6 & Josephine Alice Darling, 6 (Twins). Saeth Cane Darling, 12.
Country of Origin: Scotland.
Heritage: Pureblood.
History:
Wendy and Simon met at Wendy's place of work during her 23rd year and his 32nd, and, for lack of a better and less cliche term, it was love at first sight. Simon was not much of a reader (having been raised as an heir to a very successful soap business, he did not much bother with education but more with worldly travels and lavish self gift-giving) but was so taken aback by Wendy's beauty that he decided to deduce a plan in which he'd study up at her library- so obviously often that it was Wendy that made the first move. Soon after that, Wendy was pregnant with Elliott, and gave birth to him a year later. The two lovers tied their knots three years later- moving into a luxurious but small cottage in Scotland. Simon found it ridiculous that Wendy did not quit her job at the low-scale library- there was plenty of money to go around without any extra job- but she had such a passion that she remained there.
Unlike his sister, Elliott was not at all shielded from his father's alcoholism during his childhood. Often being around daddy was downright emotionally scarring for the boy. Life was rough- so was daddy's belt and words.
When Elliott turned 11, he "disappeared". At least to his immediate family's knowledge- he was abducted. In truth, he was sent to Hogwarts and his father was too drunk to read/remember reading the letters he'd sent back home after enrollment. Once he did finally receive formal notice, he neglected to share it with the rest of the family.
