Physical Description: An outwardly meek, short boy. Mikaela is pale in complexion, with thin almond shaped dark blue eyes. His hair is light blond, a textured cut that peaks at neck length, and around his nose at the bangs. His expressions are soft, and he often appears to be deep in thought.
Mental Description: Mikaela feels he is hard working, but generally very neutral, as if going through the motions. Easily described as cat-like in curiosity. His unfortunate upbringing leads him to not get his hopes up, simply content rather than whimsical. He feels he is often more intelligent than his peers, or perhaps just quicker to understand things. Mikaela only truly grows outwardly emotional or happy when discussing things that fascinate him. He loves astrology, tarot cards, felines, and sweet foods. He is most driven by knowledge and enamored by the idea of the future as a concept. He wishes to learn and find more direct purpose, or ways to study divinations. Mika enjoys reading, cooking, music, shiny objects and trinkets, and warm spaces. He dislikes being cold, most insects and reptiles, and suffers from claustrophobia. He is often controlling and unknowingly cold to others. Especially when involving things he is passionate about.
Biography: Mikaela grew up muggle-born, being taken in by his distant family when he was a babe. He knows nothing of why he was left to their care, but holds no ill thought about it. He was raised among a caring family. It left him content, but he'd always felt very distant. He is part Asian, but was predominantly English in his traits. Unknown to Mikaela, he is a half-blood, born to a Muggle father, and a pure-blood English mother. His father was part Japanese, thus giving him his Asian roots. Their father had to depart to Japan to return to work and his mother did not feel able to raise a child on her own, thus they both decided on leaving him in the care of his father's English side of the family, being left in the care of his great Uncle and Aunt.

His father was in and out of his life in his early years, and would encourage Mikaela to explore his roots, which led him to practice Japanese privately, and actively converse with his father when they were around. He has no memory of his real mother, having only been with her before he was 1 year old. His family was encouraging in his want to learn, but distant by factor of having to dance between their careers, and caring for much of the extended family, ever generous. Mikaela thought he was fine, letting others have the spotlight, but deep inside that lack of parental focus was felt. It led him to spend his time and energy on personal hobbies and learning, to distract himself. He was easily the most clever among his young family, enjoying to teach them or show off fun tricks with cards, and attempt to fascinate them as these things fascinated him. Never quite landed like he wanted, but he still tried. He was brought through schooling and excelled at all English and Math, doing well in portions of History and Science, depending on the subject matter.
First Instance of Magic: An average day of Primary school in Norwich, Mikaela had just turned 10 years old a month prior. The young blonde was enjoying his time in a science class, being shown a presentation on the solar system, stars, planets, moons, and it left him enamored. The fire alarm went off during class, and Mikaela felt torn away from his glee, ears filled with the ringing alarm. The teacher flicked on the lights and the class began to exit, but Mikaela lagged behind, ears ringing in his confused state. Despite no source of heat in the room, the bulbs of glass that triggered the fire suppression burst, allowing water to start pouring down on the room. Mikaela hadn't understood what happened, no one seemed to, the potential danger was all that mattered to the teacher, who ushered Mikaela out quickly as pages and papers left out began to soak. While Mika did not understand, he knew that there was no reason for the sprinklers to go off, and he was the last person in the room.
