Bio: Gaius comes from the house of Britannia, a family of purebloods who, for generations have moved in the dark corners of the wizarding world. Much like Lucius Malfoy, Gaius' father Magnus attained a position of respect (and sometimes fear), through his dealings with numerous public officials at the Ministry of Magic (some dealings more legal than others). Magnus often knew intricate secrets about those who were on the rise to fame in the world, and he used that knowledge to attain whatever he desired. The Britannia family is very well off, but nowhere as rich as the other high families in the books. In the last wizard war, Magnus was believed to be a Death Eater who sided with Voldemort, but without any definitive proof he was not sent to Azkaban.
Gaius' mother, Marianne, was killed when Gaius was only 11 years old. While the specific circumstances of her death are not known to Gaius, as he was at Hogwarts, the consensus was that she was killed in a magical accident while trying to perfect a rare spell, which backfired. Gaius mourned the loss of his mother, as he was always on better terms with her than his father. Gaius has always viewed his father as dark and mysterious, and openly believes that his father was a Death Eater despite his father's denials.
Upon coming to Hogwarts, Gaius was almost immediately sorted into Slytherin, something which the majority of his family line shared. Throughout his studies, Gaius favored Defense Against the Dark Arts as well as Potions. Secretly, Gaius also looked into dark arts spells to cast as well. As the years at Hogwarts passed, Gaius took an interest Quidditch, and became a Chaser for the Slytherin team. The young man had wanted to be a Seeker, but was not fast enough to attain that position. As Gaius enters his sixth year, he hopes to learn how to apparate,
Personality:
Gaius was a generally kind child growing up, until the death of his mother. Her death caused him to become somewhat cold and distant, and to become a bully as well. He enjoys besting people in competitions and duels, and has practiced hidden dark magic so he can always win if conventional spells fail. He has no close friends at Hogwarts, as he mainly keeps to himself and his studies.
