Dante Nikolas {{RC}}

[Dante Nikolas]

Name: Dante Alexander Nikolas
Nickname: Dan, because its the first three letters of his name, and his initials, but Dante hates being called Dan and often throws a hissyfit when people do.
Age: Fifteen
Blood: Pure
Nationality: Australian
Birthday: Twenty Second of June
Year: Fifth
House: Ravenclaw
Wand: Aspen and Reed Wood, Two Veela hairs for the core. His wand is Springy.

Wand Information:
The Wood: Aspen is also known as Cotton wood. These wands are powerful in charms, but are useless when it comes to healing Magic. Those with an Aspen Wand tend to be defiant and talkative. Which would explain why Dante got landed with this wand.
Reed Wood is always delicate, and a difficult wand to work with. However, its wisdom and intelligence make it sought-after by some. It is almost solely a Ravenclaw wandwood.

The Aspen wood is what makes up most of Dante's wand, but the reed twines around it giving it a rather twisted but graceful look. The hold at the end is made of a similar coloured wood as the reed, and makes it look like the twists are growing from the base of the wand.

The Core:
Veela wands are temperamental like the creatures they come from, and are considered too volatile for a decent wand core in many circles. However, some wizards, particularly those with Veela blood, enjoy the boost it gives to outdoorsy magics, divinations, and Charms. The veela’s inherent intelligence makes finding these wands among the non-Veela blooded most common in Ravenclaw.

Length and Flexibilty:
The wand is 12 Inches long and since Dante is not small, the length of the wand helped him bond with it better, as the Wandmaker told him, it is doubtful you will see a seven inch wand bond with someone who will grow taller than average. His wand is also springy, it is not the easiest to learn new spells with, but at the same time its not the hardest. Dante's wand is a perfect match for him as the wand tells a lot about the person who holds it.

Patronus: A Caracal, unmastered but he keeps trying to get past that puff of smoke he always gets.

Hair Colour: Dark Brown
Hair Style: Straight, long fringe, one would say in need of a cut.
Height: Five foot Six
Weight: Eleven stone
Clothes: When he's not in his robes, he'll often wear baggy jeans and t-shirts.
Build: Slender, but muscular

Overall:
The problem with Dante is, he's good looking and he knows it. Often using this to his advantage. His hair is a dark brown colour, almost black inside, but when the sun hits it you can tell its brown and not black. He has been described as 'emo' but his response to that is, 'what the hell is emotional about me?' then he will playfully tap you on the head with the word 'doink' added after it. He keeps his hair straight, though even he wont deny it needs a good cutting. He's quite small, standing at five foot six but he's not stopped growing yet, he always measures himself when he goes home for the summer to see if he has gained any height or not. He's slender to look at, and when in his robes some would say he's thin and needs to eat, but everyone who knows him knows he loves his food more than anything. Dante is slender, but has some muscle under him which he plans one day to develop a bit more, they are noticeable when he's not in his school robes.

His eyes are a light brown, being one of the best things about him in his honest opinion. They seem really innocent and looking into them you might believe he could be innocent but this is as far from the truth as humanly possible. His clothes are a syle all his own and he doesnt care if people judge him by how he dresses. Though, more often than not he is seen in stylish jeans and t-shirts. His skin is pale, but not entirely without colour. He likes the fact he's as pale as he is, he doesnt tan very easily and tends to burn quicker than go brown so he figures why tempt the hands of fate to kill him through over-exposure of sunlight, when he's actually happy the way he is.

Personality:
The Smarts:
He has a sharp mind, too bad he doesnt use it often. Dante is able to follow things fairly easily and rather quickly, picking up on things others usually dont. His mind never stops working, but he tends to ignore everything it tells him. He could do extreamly well in school if he bothered to attend his classes or actually do his homework, the Sorting Hat saw his cleverness was the most striking thing about him and placed him in Ravenclaw, when he really wanted to be in Gryffindor. Though, when the hat whispered why Ravenclaw was the better choice, Dante went along with it and became one of the newest Claws five years ago. Dante plays the thick card better than the smart one, and only ever uses his brain if he has to.

The Courage:
Though its not the most apparent thing about him, Dante is a brave person. He wont turn his back on an adventure or a dare no matter how stupid or dangerous it is. The way he see's it is, 'If I die while doing this, at least I'll die having fun.' Some people have often thought he was mentally challenged because of some of his more stupid ideas, but Dante likes to keep testing himself and keep himself on his toes as nobody else seems to do it for him.

The Loyalty:
He is an extreamly loyal friend, one could say fiercly loyal. He will stick by his friends like glue and will protect them from anything, even hungry werewolves if he had to. If you hurt them, Dante will hunt you down and castrate you with a stick, preferably one which is quite rough and has a good couple of thorns on it, either way it would be excrutiantingly painful for his adversary. Who needs the crucio curse when you have a stick? If any of his friends are upset, Dante will do his best to cheer them up, hes the sort of guy who would wear a fuzzy bunny outfit and act like donald duck just to see you crack a smile

The Love:
He has a lot to give, but thats diversing. Dante prefers to love people, rather than fight them. As the saying goes, hes a lover not a fighter. He doesnt like to fight with people if he can avoid it and will usually take a good while before he reacts to a fight. Of course, if need be he will fight, especially if his friends need him. Dante wont be the first to stand up and be all, "Yeah lets do this woo" about a fight, he is more likely to look at you sceptically and say, "Cant someone else do it?"

The Fear:
Of all the things to be scared of. Birds. Anything that flies Dante will run away from screaming like a girl. Well, he's not afraid of Broomsticks with people on them, but if a broomstick came flying at him without a rider, Dante would run for the hills. He has a really irrational fear of china dolls, he thinks their porcelain features are just creepy, (and like his creator) he is terrified of clowns. Well everyone has to fear something right?

The Flirt:
If its a girl. He'll flirt. Dante is a bit of a jack the lad for his age and he wants to get in as much experiance as humanly possible before someone manages to trap him. He will flirt with just about anyone, and though not gay or that way inclined, he has often been known to flirt with guys too, just to see their reactions if nothing else. If he flirts, dont think you've found love cause Dante is not one to settle down.

The Stupidity:
Dante is crazy, hes always running around making people laugh at him, which is what he loves most, laughter. Its like a drug for him which eggs him on to keep on going and make a complete fool out of himself. He never passes up an opportunity to have a laugh, and finds himself mentally kicking himself if he does. He once ran around the school naked, much to the Teachers dissaprovals. By now, everyone is used to how Dante is and have learnt not to expect anything as Dante is the type to surprise you.

History:
Dante was born and raised most of his life in Australia, and because of it he has a very thick Aussie accent. He's never had any real dreams or any ambitions that would actually make someone proud. Though he wants to be successful in his future, Dante doesnt care much if he ends up working in a supermarket. His elder brother Sam was more of a best friend to Dante, and despite the age difference the two got on perfectly, even when Sam had to go back to school It was a little far for him to travel, so he often stayed with their Aunt and Uncle in Scotland for the week before school.

When it was Dante's turn to go to school, Dante didnt really want to stay with his Aunt and Uncle, the three of them never saw eye to eye with each other, and due to Dantes rowdy behavior, the three didnt get along. After much debate, the family decided to move down to Cornwall instead, go to England, Dante nearly died of happiness, it meant he wouldnt have to spend awkward days pretending to get along with them and actually do as they say. Sam would come home with stories of the strangest things and Dante would laugh, never believe them and pat his brother condescendingly on the head.

When it was time to leave, on the platform Sam went with his friends and Dante went compartment hunting, he finally found one with a girl he didnt know but had been talking to on the platform, her name was Rosalie, he didnt know it at the time but the two would strike a very fierce friendship. Before they even arrived at the Platform in Hogsmeade, the two had already gotten the level grounding needed for a friendship to build on and Dante had then decided in his mind that she was going to be his first friend. Whether she bloomin well liked it or not.

A few months down the line, him and Rosalie were more or less joined at the hip, wherever Dante went, Rosalie went, they were like the two musketeers, Dante often says the third one died tragically falling from a tree. The two of them like to make life hell for those who class themselves at better usually by playing with thier minds, especially the Slytherins as most of them are too thick to understand what Dante is actually doing, "Bloody idiots," He would describe them as, "They dont own a single braincell between them, I have more, and believe me. THAT is saying something." Then shaking his head, "Well not really, obviously im smart. I just dont use my brain a lot."

Dante has had a wild set of years, he never likes to stay still and is usually in the middle of some rukus somewhere, you just have to know where to look. Its rarely a dull day with Dante around, and he prizes himself of being able to make people laugh. "Cause lets face it," He smiles, "Im amazing" Over the years he has developed quite an attitude, but he displays it in a way that people just tend to laugh at him, and though he's arrogant, his calm display often tends to make people think they've misjudged him.

"Roll on the fifth year! Im halfway there!" He chimes, "Oh no, I was halfway there when I was halfway through my third year.. Hang on." He thinks to himself, "Maybe a little over three quarters then. Either way bring on the fifth!"

and this is the place where the creator of this plot [caseyy of white pages] gets to prattle on
and on about what the rules for using this plot are, plus where she got all the stuff for it.
color blending is from the fabulous color blender that everyone uses, but actual colors were
taken from this image. the sonnets are all from shakespeare, i don't remember what
numbers and i'm sorry for that. if you care enough you can search all 154 until you find
these exact four. the titles of each section [including this one] are all plays/collections of
poems by shakespeare himself.

now for the actual rules. one, if this credit is taken off, i will
come after you in the name of all literary nerds and beat you over the head with a dictionary.
please provide at least two relationships, and use the code provided exactly, no editing or adding
in random things that aren't needed. quote the original post to get the colors, it makes everything
look nice and pretty and i like it when things are nice and pretty. make your history at least
one solid paragraph of eight to ten sentences, more is always welcome and better. you must
pick the relationships!! if you simply put 'whatever you wan't, you're going to get 'nothing'.
Please DO NOT Wrap your RC application in a code as well as not in a code cause it stretches the page for some reason[/center]

It's a weird relationship because in normality we just wouldn't be friends. But who's normal? All you need to know is I love him and he's a hoot. Honestly, I can't think of what else to say about him, you'll know first hand when you meet him. What you see if what you get with him, and he doesn't tend to care whether you accept that or not. I can't see him changing for anyone, and that's probably a good thing. Not being yourself is bad. He's a royal pain in the butt but at least he's funny!"
>>‘dante says: "Who?" Dante asks rubbing his head, only to feel a slap coming on, "Oh that Rosalie. Yeah, we go way back. Like, before we even stepped on the train that September morning. No I'm serious, we were talking on the platform but she ran off when the train was letting people on it." He snickered, "Still I found her anyway and we became solid friends as the years wore on, Hogwarts would be a dull place without my Rosalie," Dante furrrows his brow and whispers, "How do I say I love her, in a friendly way obviously, but not sound completley gay?"

Alice tries to hide her laugh before continuing, "No, he's a great guy. Lets me dress him up and such, course there's a deal there that I'm not allowed to tell you about but I doubt you'd want to know all those details anyway." Alice puts a hand on her bottom lip and thinks for a moment, "Yeah, we've been through a lot together, can't say he's my favorite guy though but he's not exactly my least favorite either." Alice shrugs, "That's pretty much it right there."
>>‘dante says: "“Alice?” Dante raises his eyebrows questioningly, "She's Alice, man, is this some kind of lameass interview where you run back and tell her everything I told you?" Dante rubs his neck and looks to the person asking the questions, "I like to think of us as friends, I wouldnt say best friends, but close enough. I know a lot about her and she knows equally as much about me, but I'm still learning and the girl tends to ya' know, surprise me a lot." Dante laughs, "Some people have thought in the past that we were dating or something, but our relationship isnt like that, shes not out for a boyfriend and im not out for a girlfriend so our little arrangement suits us both fine. I suppose you could say we're friends with benefits, I like the fact that I dont have to worry about what she is thinking about me all the time and I know if we were together that's exactly what I'd be doing." He listens to the next question, "Oh yeah man, We go out all the time, Alice is a bucket load of fun, we go make trouble or go out to Hogsmeade, what? Underage drinkers? Why who in the world would think so badly of us?" Dante laughs again and skips to the next question, "I wont deny theres tension between us, or attraction, but its not strong enough to lead us to any other place than we are now. We're bad for eachother, really, we have this wasy of influencing ourseves but to do something worse than we already have, Alice is a bit protective over me and I over her, but thats what friends do right?" A blush creeps up Dante's face, "What, she told you that? Yeah I'll admit she likes to dress me and Rosalie up a lot, she's even put makeup on me but I dont mind so much. In fact, it gives people something to laugh about so I'm all cool with it. Dante sized paper doll.""[/font][/SIZE][/font][/SIZE]
