Physical Description:
Zayn is a British Arab of average height and build, with fair olive skin and faint dark circles under his eyes. He has gray-brown eyes and dark brown hair usually kept short and neat.
Mental Description:
Zayn is an extrovert and comfortable being the center of attention in groups but does not typically share his inner thoughts even to those he is close with. However, he is loyal and protective of those he trusts. For his age, he is perceptive and has an innate ability to read people but can be overconfident in his abilities. He struggles in uncontrolled situations, preferring predictability over chaos and, at times, can be quite prideful.
Biography:
Zayn was born on March 13, 2015 in London, a scion of the Al-Ashmuni family which immigrated from Egypt to the UK in 1919. He grew up in Bloomsbury, close to the British Museum where he began to develop a budding interest in Egyptology. With his parents and grandparents all active in academia, his early childhood was spent surrounded by old books, maps, and antiquities which he developed an affinity towards. He has three younger siblings who he is close to and a few friends from other wizarding families, primarily from Mould-on-the-Wold where his family maintains a vacation cottage.
First Instance of Magic:
Zayn's first instance of magic occurred when he was 9 years old while the family was on holiday in Mould-on-the-Wold. Zayn, along with his younger siblings, were walking through a dense copse of ancient trees when one of the branches broke free from a gust of wind. He could hear the branch break and watched helplessly as it fell directly down towards one of his siblings. Too far to physically help, he began to panic and shouted for her move but he knew it would be too late. Except, rather than hit his sister, the branch instead burst into splinters a meter above her head and flew harmlessly to the side of the trail. Both Zayn and his siblings were frozen in shock, amazed at what the young boy had just unintentionally done. They soon recovered, however, and ran back to the cottage to tell their parents the good news.
