[b]Name:[/b] Roy Archer [b]Age: 16[/b] [b]Appearance:[/b] [hider=Roy] [img]http://i58.tinypic.com/1r7ya9.jpg[/img] [/hider] [b]House: [/b]Ravenclaw [b]Year: [/b]5 [b]Heritage: [/b] Half-blood [b]Wand: [/b]Hornbeam and Unicorn Hair, 12 1/4 inches [b]Bio: [/b] Roy was born to a witch mother and Muggle father. He was the fourth of five boys. While he felt his older brothers' accomplishments overshadowed him, they felt he was very spoiled and an attention hog. Both were somewhat true. It was around the time that he was seven that he managed to find something to make him stand out on his own. His talent for arts showed itself in his classes at his Muggle school. His father, was so excited to have one of his sons be talented in something he could understand (as much as he did love the idea of Quidditch), encouraged him to become the best artist he could be. His mother spurred him on by charming some of his better artwork into moving and talking, just like their photographs and paintings. Eventually, it came time to go to Hogwarts and Roy couldn't be more excited to make his parents as proud as his brothers. At his sorting, he was instantly put into Ravenclaw due to his active mind and vivid imagination. His classes were simple enough. Everything seemed relatively straightforward though potions was some trouble. However, he excelled in Transfiguration. He made plenty of friends, though plenty of students were put off by his perceived arrogance. In third year he tried out for the Quidditch team, hoping to join his brother but failed spectacularly. He doesn't like to talk about it. Rather he put his energy elsewhere, his art and duelling. Though he is not exactly a top-tier duellist, his duels are typically entertaining if nothing else. [b]Personality:[/b] Roy's mind is always working. He like to think in different ways, approaching ideas from several angles. He tends to comprehend and visualize more abstract concepts better than many people. Because of this he is a skilled artist as well as talented Transfiguration. This same aspect of him, is why his mind tends to wander though. Left alone with his own thoughts, he could ignore the rest of the world for hours. He generally has people around to bring him back down. When's he interacting with people he's generally friendly. However he's used to drawing attention and can be pretty arrogant and boastful. Growing up with four brothers ensures he's made of some tougher stuff. He's never aggresive but he knows how to take an insult and physically hold his own. That's good, because his tendency to flirt with whatever pretty girl he sees has put him in a few predicaments with angry boyfriends.
