((Six is afraid of seven due to the rather pointiness of seven's nose.  Anyone can see that 6 is a very round and gentle number, and it would be quite easy for 7 to jab it and pop its balloon!

 -Sorry if that was rather lame, best I could come up with on pain meds XD  Just got my stupid wisdom teeth removed -_-

 --Been a while since I've RPed, hopefully you wouldn't mind if I joined?))

((Of course Nessa :) Hope your teeth feel better!

  Name: Corvus Whifferdill “Whiffer”

Age: 11
Gender:  Male

Year: 1

House:  Ravenclaw

Personality:  Quirky, to say the least.  Corvus is a brilliant child, and has always been one for knowing all the right anwers.  However, he dislikes being thought of as a brainiac, and often does what he can to make himself look foolish.  Honestly, when that doesn’t work out, he just makes himself stand out in other ways.  He’s not at all stuck up, and has a great sense of humor.  He isn’t one of those guys that only believes in one way to skin a cat, and likes to try new methods, which sometimes blow up in his face.  However, he is a dead believer in the trial and error method of learning, even if it may be a bit more dangerous for a wizard than it would be for a normal kid!

History: Corvus is a half-blood, his father a wizard and his mother a muggle, though there had been magic in her family as her sister had been born a witch, so it was little surprise when boys came about that could do magic.  Corvus is an only child, so named after his great grandfather, even though he finds the name pretentious and prefers to be called “Whiffer”, much to his father’s chagrin.  There was no doubt in either parent’s mind that he would be a wizard from the moment he was born, especially when Corvus was instantly known to have the rare gift of metamorphagus, his hair turning a vivid shade of blue upon his birth.  Due to his ability, and lack of control of it during his youth, he was home-schooled rather than sent to the public muggle school. 

Pet: N/A

Wand:  13 inch Maple, Phoenix Feather core, rigid witha  spiraled shaft.

Other: Metamorphmagus.  A rare ability that someone is born with, unlike training to become an animgaus.  It can be hereditary, but is not always, somewhat like becoming a witch or wizard itself.

Looks:  Whiffer is a Metamorphmagus, which means he can change his looks at will.  Most commonly, he is seen with vivid and stark colors, his hair shades of blue and purple, his eyes blue, though this may change depending on how he is feeling that day.  He is a tall gangly thing, with rather pointed features when he doesn’t feel like changing them about, and can never seem to keep any meat on him.  His hair does seem to revert to a dark blue-black shade when he is overly depressed or upset, which could be believed to be his ‘natural’ color.

Name: Heathcoat Warrington “Heath”
Age: 11
Gender:  Male

Year: 1
House: Slytherin
Personality:  Quiet is the first thing that would come to anyone’s mind about Heath.  He is quiet and relatively unsocial in general.  Some think it’s because he feels he is too good for the rest of the world, but in complete honesty, it is simply his lack of understanding of how to deal with people.  It could even be considered shyness, which makes it even more difficult for him to speak to girls or large crowds.  In fact, large groups of girls can terrify him.  Though he is Slytherin, there is something different about him.  While he was born to a pureblood family, what is likely the most obvious reason he was placed in the house, he does not seem to understand his family’s feelings against muggle-born or half-blood wizards.  He isn’t the judgemental type, as he doesn’t wish to be judged, so he would accept any magical, unmagical, or mix thereof without hesitation, if they would only accept and understand him.  Most often, he will be found sitting on his own reading books or doing his homework, something possibly less common for a Slytherin, but it makes him happy and allows him to prove to himself that he is capable of more than others may believe.
History: He is the third son of a pureblood family, with a younger sister following.  Most of his family holds the truest of pureblood beliefs, though he has his doubts whether they are set on logic and fact or simply misguided beliefs of a dwindling people.  He does love his family very much, but can often be embra.ssed by their actions, and does not often try to be seen with them, especially when they are doing the things that only an extremist pureblood family would do.  He is the third son to have entered Slytherin for his family, with one brother in his third year and another in his sixth, and he has just as much pressure placed upon him as the rest of the lot.
Pet: Heath has a pretty Bengal Cat by the name of Tuss.  Tuss has the traditional ‘wild markings’ of a Bengal Cat,  and is extremely intelligent and friendly.  He has some magical properties to him, as he was purchased from Magical Menagerie in Diagon Alley as a present for getting into Hogwarts.  Tuss is easily considered to be Heath’s best friend.
Wand:  14 inch Ebony with Chimera Scale Core, bendy witha  decorated shaft (rare, but his parents are wealthy and proud enough that they want the best for their children.)
Other:  Along with studying, Heath rather enjoys the arts, and may be found drawing or painting, though he would never show off his work to anyone else.

Looks:  Like his parents and siblings, Heath has the traditional Warrington black hair, though his is a bit shaggier than that of his siblings.  He is tall and broad shouldered, and will obviously be a possible athlete, if he ever felt comfortable enough in front of a crowd to be one.  His eyes are a pale shade of gray, sometimes hidden by the gla.sses he wears to help him see.

 Name:  Kurt Levski

Age: 11
Gender:  Male

Year: 1
House: Hufflepuff
Personality: Kurt is a little box of emotions!  He simply can’t keep them all to himself.  He is loud and happy and overly friendly, and will do his best to become friends with everyone that he meets.  He doesn’t mind speaking his mind, and tries to help others, even if he doesn’t really know how- which can sometimes get him in trouble.  The only things he truly dislikes are bullying and studying.  The former gets him into trouble when he tries to help the bullied, and the latter tends to put him to sleep!  He does try hard at all things that he does, but he often isn’t the best.  He’s quick on his feet, and may turn to a decent seeker, but the thought of him being hit by a bludger is enough to change anyone’s mind about that.  What he loves most in the whole world is cooking, magical or not, and might be caught sneaking to the kitchens to visit with the house elves for this very reason!  Due to its closeness in nature, he also finds potions to be his favorite cla.ss, simply for the exact measures that it adds and how similar it is!
History: Kurt is muggle born.  Both of his parents are muggles.  Yet, his uncle is a wizard, and gladly took the boy in when his parents didn’t know what to do with him!  They loved him dearly, but with four other children, having one that could break things without touching them and able to make the pet dog fly about was simply not within their capabilities.  He did attend public schools, but often had to change due to his inability to keep his magical talents hidden, something that came from his boisterous nature.  A few years ago, he and his Uncle moved to England so that his uncle could start a new job with the Ministry of Magic.  Though his uncle had graduated from Durmstrang, he was still pleased when Kurt received the letter of acceptance to Hogwarts, and quickly set about getting the boy everything he required to become a wizard.
Pet: Quite humorously, the tiny boy has a great beast for a pet!  His uncle purchased him a Great Gray owl after receiving acceptance to Hogwarts, and the cuddly creature tends to dwarf Kurt’s already rather diminuative size.  To top it off, Kurt named the bird Sir Fluffy, even if his uncle said that that was not a proper name for an owl.
Wand: 10 inch Rosewood with a Unicorn Hair core, supple and smooth.
Other: Kurt can sing beautifully, and often does to himself.  He would do well in a choir.  Beyond this, he tends to be a bit on the clutzy side, and has been known to trip over his own feet!
Looks: Kurt is, with a word, adorable.  He is shorter than any of the boys his age, and likely many of the girls.  It is uncertain if he will ever reach any real height, but his personality is big enough to make up for it.  His hair is a pale blond mop on the top of his head, that sometimes doesn’t even get brushed if he oversleeps, and his eyes are a dark blue shade that seem to be too big for him.  As a whole, Kurt just appears to be the most cuddly and huggable boy in all of Hogwarts!
