Character Name
Lamont Jacob Belfour
Age
15
Gender
Male
Appearance
Tall at almost six foot and a little awkward. His shoulders are a little to big for his weight, but he seems to add a pound every couple of months this last year, the boy coming into his body more. His muscles are even starting to look more defined. His light muddy brown eyes are often crinkled up in a smile that makes his charming face light up even more. Black, slightly wavy hair kept short.
Personality
Lamont is that quite southern gentlemen. While he can, and does, talk rather loudly, he’s polite and respectful until you anger him. Then he’s a raging bull to be avoided at all cost. He can be a bit of a spitfire when occasion calls for it but more often than not he is the slow and friendly sorta fellow. He’s always trying to see the good in people and not dwell on what very well maybe a very awful thing about them.
House

Bio
Lamont was born to American mother and French father down in a small farm town outside Atlanta, Georgia. His parents, both purebloods, raised him in a hard working home that didn't rely on magic to do a whole lot. There was tension in town though because of the inter-racial marriage of his parents. Lamont though, went unbothered by the words and insults tossed at him and his mother for most of his early childhood. Even now he doesn't take offense to them, just takes them and laughs them away knowing them all to just be fools. He was relieved when his letter came for the Salem Academy, hoping to escape the South and some of the prejudices there. Mostly now, he gets picked on for his way of talking. Which still doesn't bother him. And at least no one is making fun of his momma anymore.
