the QuietNote: goes by Draco
F A M I L YDraco' mother is an English witch- specifically, she works on a dragon sanctuary, so she isn't home much. His father, on the other hand, is an American wizard, so even if lucky, Draco sees him about twice a year. As such, he is usually home alone, if he goes home at all.
He
used to have a twin sister... but she is no more.
B A C K G R O U N DDraco is the product of two different wizards, meaning he is a
pureblood, but he doesn't seem arrogant about it at all. In fact, his father being from the U.S., no one knows about his blood status at all, and likely, it will stay that way.
Draco was born 15, almost 16 years ago on February 1st, approximately 2 minutes before his younger sister, and has pale blue eyes and nearly white hair. His sister and him were inseparable for the first 10 years of their life. He was the brave explorer, who would fight anything to protect his sister. His sister was the one who drove him, having the grandest ambitions for one so young. No doubt, had things not changed, he would've been Gryphindor, and she a Slytherin. But fate has a strange way of changing things. On their 6th birthday, the children were out playing in the forest, perhaps too late at night, when a Hidebehind happened upon the children, and Draco's sister was snatched. Ever since then, Draco has been able to see thestrals. Contrary to what this might have done normally, this made Draco even more interested in magical beasts, and changed his demeanor. Since the death of his twin, Draco constantly searches for more knowledge, and routinely works out.
Most often found at a library or a bookstore, Draco will stop at nothing in his pursuit for knowledge, and his lack of present parents only furthered this for him. It came as no surprise to him when he was sorted into
Ravenclaw- after all, he had even commanded the Sorting Hat put him there.
Draco has made no friends yet, especially within his own house, although the head of house is quite fond of him, granting him permission to even the restricted section of the library. At school, Draco is usually one of three places- outside, in the library, or in the room of requirement, which sensed his need for solitude on the anniversary of his sister's death, and welcomed him kindly.
Many find Draco strange due to his propensity to going outside to talk to "nothing." As of yet, no one knows that he speaks to the thestrals, telling them of the knowledge he learned in his sister's place.
P E R S O N A L I T YDraco is quiet and withdrawn. While he honestly wishes to have friends, and is extremely kind and loyal once he deems you worthy, these traits are often bypassed by his seemingly solitary nature. In reality, Draco is incredibly lonely, but completely unwilling to push himself onto someone else, and instead focused on magic itself. Because of his sister, Draco is fiercely protective of younger students. Although he is capable of many spells due to his quest for knowledge, he feels no need to have outstanding results, and instead keeps his results mostly mid-range. This isn't to be confused with modesty- Draco is, surprisingly, hopelessly blunt. He knows what he is capable of, but simply doesn't care to share it. If he isn't approached by someone else, he will likely spend his entire time at Hogwarts alone.
In essence, Draco is magically outstanding, but socially hopeless.
It is rare to see the 5โ11 boy smile, but if one managed to pull one from him, his childish trust and kindness are easy to see.
It is even more unlikely to make the youth angry, but if one managed to- good luck to them. His normally slightly off putting manner will become downright dangerous as his eyes change to pure white (a side effect of his animagus form), and angry accidental magic will freely swirl around him.
M A G I C SDraco has a
14'' Fir Wand, with Suprisingly Swishy Flexibility, and a Dragon's Heartstring Core- no real surprise with the core, given his mother's profession. (Thanks Pottermore)
Draco's
patronus is yet uncreated- he will learn it this year in defense. But, once he can create one, his
patronus will be a flying fox. Although the older male isn't aware of it, Draco noticed a seventh yearโs strange movements at one point, so in his fourth, managed to nick the book the man was reading. As a result, this year he reached his
animagus- a thestral. With his form of a thestral he is invisible to any who haven't witnessed death firsthand, which helps to keep his secret... secret. No one currently knows except the other thestrals, of course.
He only really uses his animagus form when at home, or on breaks when few students remain at school.
Draco
does not differentiate between light versus dark magic. To him, magic is simply magic, and as long as it isn't necessarily hurting anyone he cares about, he has no qualms about using it.
R E L A T I O N S H I P SCurrently, Draco isn't close to anyone. This may change- however, he won't have anything to do with it if it does. He is pan sexual.
O T H E RDue to his animagus form, Draco is almost completely carnivorous, though he will eat some other foods. He is also very thin, and fast. Though he will not necessarily pick fights, when in them, he is ruthless and aggressive.
Draco is very graceful in his movements, and, surprisingly, loves to dance.
He is in the
5th year.He studied Parseltongue in his free time, and knows a bare minimum of it.
P E T S
N O XNox is a giant black 3/4 kneazle who is about 3 years old. She loves Draco more than anything, and he returns the feeling. She is protective, and highly intelligent. She often slinks around outdoors, staying close to the caretaker's hut, and like Draco, is able to hang out close to the thestrals when they visit. This would be a
terrible idea for most pets, but thanks to Draco's unique nature, she is able to traverse among them, but still very carefully. She's rather grumpy with most people, but is accepting of those who are kind to Draco... so far, though few have been particularly mean, none have been kind enough to warrant her affection. As such, she's generally indifferent.
L U M O SLumos is a ball python with a specific genetic strand that lets them be called Stormtrooper pythons. He is a kind soul, but completely silent, unless talking with Draco, who knows a small amount of Parseltongue. He was bought with Nox, and is perhaps the only other creature Nox is fond of. Because of the fact that only one pet is allowed per person, Lumos and Nox are completely inseparable. Lumos wraps himself gently around Nox's neck, and is seen by other students and professors as a collar, unless they're paying too close attention. He is constantly wrapped in a notice-me-not charm.
Neither Nox nor Lumos spend time around people outside of Draco, so as not to be noticed
