The Character
Name: Xuan Trieu
Nicknames: Just Xuan--the Vietnamese word for spring. It's more commonly a feminine name but can be unisex.
Age: 14
Year: 4th
House: ADMIN DECIDES!
Blood: Half-blood (pure-blood father, muggle-born mother)
Wand: 10.25", Ash and Phoenix feather
Pets: Cat, Vladimir by name
Patronus: Wolverine
Boggart: Failure
Personality: If one were to look for Xuan, chances are he would be playing the bassoon. If he wasn't playing bassoon, he would be playing piano. If not the piano, he would be practicing martial arts. Xuan has played the bassoon since age 7, piano since 4, and martial arts since the age of 6.
Xuan is fairly reserved and shy. He likes to keep by himself with other things to occupy him; for example, he enjoys reading immensely and also entertains himself by playing around with Rubik's cubes.
Xuan's mind is very mathematically and logically oriented. An example of this is his Rubik's cube skills, which take a great deal of logic and intuition to solve. He also uses his mind for practical uses; for example, his current supply of staples will last him until he is about 69 years old.
Appearance: Xuan has short, messy black hair. He wears wire-rimmed glasses all the time (excepting sleep and bathing) and is absolutely hopeless without them. He has braces on his teeth. Xuan is fairly skinny.
Xuan usually wears clothes such as normal, casual T-shirts and likes track pants; they are very comfortable to him. He almost never wears jeans, unless they are the only things he has left that is clean. He wears white socks and tennis shoes every day.
History: Xuan's parents were born in Vietnam. He was also born in Vietnam an only child, but he had much family in Laos so he made frequent visits there (more than once a month). Because of this, Xuan learned Vietnamese and Lao at an early age.
Because of his father's job, Xuan's family had to move to Cairo, Egypt at the age of 8. Xuan grew accustomed to the Egyptian ways and learned Arabic in school as well as English, since it was a required language.
At the age of 10, Xuan's family moved again. Xuan was fluent enough in English (he still had quite a few grammar and spelling problems, but his vocabulary was acceptable for one his age), so they moved to London, England, this time for his mother's job (she wished to be a Healer for St. Mungo's). Within the next year, Xuan received his Hogwarts letter.
Xuan enjoyed his first three years at Hogwarts. His favorite subject was Potions, because he particularly enjoyed cooking at home.
RP Sample: Xuan raced down the dungeon hallway, his robes billowing out behind him and his glasses threatening to fly off his nose. Stuffing the last bit of muffin that he'd had for breakfast into his mouth, Xuan stopped and dusted his hands vigorously. He pulled out a small bottle of hand sanitizer from inside his pocket and popped the cap open. Pouring a generous amount onto his hand, Xuan was finally ready.
Adjusting his bag on his shoulder, Xuan closed the hand sanitizer again and put it back into his pocket. Xuan then waved his arms about subtly to make sure that they were completely dry, then put his hand on the dungeon doorknob.
It creaked open. He was the first one to Potions class, so he shrugged and sat down in the front row. Xuan then put his hands together and twiddled his thumbs, waiting for the class to begin.
