The Character
Name: Richard Leons
Nicknames (if any): Rich
Age & Year: 17, 6th year
Blood: Pure
Wand: 11 inches , Dragon Heartstrings, Pine
Personality: Richard likes to think of himself as an alright guy, not only does he have the brains and a good sense of humour, he does know how to have fun. Although fun always comes after work. Both he and his parents know he can get the top grades, and so far this has been proven although after 6 years working hard Richard is starting to get a tad tired and is more inclined to relax more then normal. Although he thinks himself as brave, when it comes down to it he is more likely to hide at the first sign of danger then run towards it.
Richard desires a simple life, he wants good grades to get a good job in the Department of Magical Transportation along with his Dad. He does not desire the spotlight on him or to be Mr popular, he just wants to have fun and achieve something in life.
Appearance: A rather plain looking boy, Richard fits into a crowd perfectly and does not stand out as a ‘major hunk’. He is not tall but he is not small either, Richard likes to think he is the perfect height, he can reach top shelves but does not bang his head on low ceilings. If he could change one thing it would be the size of his ears, they are rather large compared to most his age and so he has tried to grow his hair to cover them up, the hair that has not be combed since he was 5.
History: His childhood and upbringing was rather simple. His parents were both in Ravenclaw, although there was a 5 year age difference. He is an only child and spent more time with his mother as his father worked hard at the ministry. As soon as he came to Hogwarts his mother too began to work at the ministry as so his summer holidays are either spent on his own, in a office in the ministry helping his Dad or at his muggle Grandparents.
