Character Description:
Albrecht is tall and very well-built for his age. His impressive physical stature is his best feature, and his tanned complexion clearly shows him to be an outdoorsman. He has a moderately handsome, clean-shaven face, and despite the lack of a defined chin and a bulbous nose, he sports brilliant blue eyes and strong cheeks. He keeps his brown hair swept back and slicked, the ends of which fan out about his neck. His robes are the standard for Hogwarts, sweeping and black, and shined, black shoes are visible beneath the hem.
Personality/Beliefs Outline:
If one believed him to look strong, his convictions would convince you. Supremely confident in himself and his friends, Albrecht can verge on arrogant at times. While he’s intelligent, he isn’t terribly suited to problem-solving and other such endeavors. However, should you need a bastion of hope, you could look no further, and he has been blessed with some common-sense. He’s energetic and friendly, and he has no problems being amicable with anyone, save those who clash with his morals. While he isn’t the most dedicated of individuals, when he puts his mind towards an end, he expects to finish.
Background
Mother:
Elissa Hamilton, 47, Ministry of Magic Employee
Father:
Samuel Hamilton, 43, Corporate Accountant(Muggle)
Siblings:
Charles Hamilton, 23, Traveling Abroad(Wizard)
Country of Origin:
London, England
Heritage:
Halfblood
History:
Born into interesting circumstances, Albrecht was the result of a pairing of a witch anda muggle. His father, Samuel, had no idea of his wife’s nature until theirfirst son, Charles, began to display the telltale signs of magical talent. The discovery of the wizarding world was quite the shock for the muggle, and he ended up divorcing his wife of fifteen years, leaving her with child, and with a son who grew up resenting his father. Albrecht never knew him, and from the moment he was born, unlike his brother, he was immersed in the wizarding culture, resulting in two very different siblings. Charles shipped off to Hogwarts and left Albrecht at home, usually alone, while his mother was at work. He immersed himself in the storied history of his family and the wizard realm. The tales of those such as the Founders of Hogwarts, and those that had occurred not even a century before, like Albus Dumbledore and Harry Potter and the fall of Voldemort.
When he himself shipped off to Hogwarts, he found a place that suited him well. He had marks ranging from decent to excellent, and he never was able to stay out of trouble for long, usually dealing with the students from Slytherin. Confrontations seemed to be his offense of choice. Nothing too violent, usually. At home, strained relations between he and his brother seemed to ramp up as the years went on, until Charles decided he’d had enough for a while and struck out to see the world at large, mainly just to escape Albrecht’s accusations of his interest in Dark magic. Something having to do with their Muggle father and Charles’s abandonment issues. And so after that final, decidedly violent row, Albrecht returned to Hogwarts to begin his fifth year, even as the news of Muggle disappearances and odd weather and natural disasters occurring seemed to ramp up. The world was becoming a dangerous place, and Al did his best not to let it dampen his mood. After all, his mother was with the Ministry and he was at Hogwarts, two of the safest places in England. And his brother? Well he could hardly care.
