Oliver is friendly, polite and quiet. He hates being the center of attention and enjoys having just a few friends around. His favourite activity would probably have to be caring for animals, which he has been doing all his life. He hates to disappoint people, and so prefers to stay out of the spotlight entirely. While he seems quite unsure of what he wants in life, he has aspirations of becoming a Care of Magical Creatures professor. He has dark brown, curly hair and strikingly blue eyes. He has a tall, slender build and measures at about 165cm. Oliver comes from a pure-blood family who breed fancy hippogriffs for a living. He grew up loving animals, even preferring them over people most of the time. He has three older sisters, all of which have since left Hogwarts. He sees his sisters as a source of encouragement, rather than competition. His parents are kind and accepting, and baby Oliver to no end. However, as they are a pure-blood family, they put pressure on Oliver to be a good wizard. True to their hopes, Oliver first used magic when he was five; his parents had found him strolling along the roof of their (five storey) house. From then on, he was taught extensively about magic, the family history and about the prestigious school for witchcraft and wizardry: Hogwarts.
