Apperance: Oswald is a boy who is circa 4'5 tall and fairly skinny. He got short and (naturally ginger) honey-colour dyed hair which tends to get messy from time to time. He often wears sweaters and a scarf or bow-tie which are both dyed in autumn colours , with black jeans and his favorite sneakers. His skin is pale and seems slightly cold, same goes to his light green eyes. His face , sprinkled with some freckles, is slightly covered by his glasses.

Personality: He is more of an introvert. He tends to be shy and not really talk-active , but can and will be an overall friendly and helpful person, if he wants to and warms up enough. His humor is wide ranged - from dark humor to random videos.
He shows great interest in muggle history and literature, which (mixed with his overall shyness) leads to moments where he simply sits down somewhere , either outside under a tree or in a library and quietly reads fictional novels. He prefers music with calm and smooth acustic guitar sounds - which he also is currently trying to play with more or less good results.

History: Oswald was born in Cologne , Germany. His parents met when both where studying in the same local (in Cologne) university. His mother was born and grew up there, while his father moved there from Britain to study abroad.
They packed all they had when he was around 3 years old and moved to London, to his great-parents' (father's parents) home , in which they still live nowdays.
The family did make many trips - to the beaches in South England , to wandering through the country side and highlands in Scottland. He also visited Cologne a couple times , where he spended some time with his german grandmother, who also came to visit them on Christmas .
He did visit a private school in London. He did play football every now and then, while he mostly sat down somewhere alone to read a book. This did anger some of his fellow pupils. Some called him weird and made fun of him for being "such a nerd" or "bookworm". One kid though was especially mean, his name was Tyler. Tyler was a fairly big kid for his age and to Oswald, it seemed like he had nothing better to do, then to terrorize him. But this action will turn out to a big mistake.

When the magic surfaced: He was around 10 years old when it first happend. It was a cool early- November morning and he was casually sitting under a big oak. Brown leaves where covering the ground around it , while the tree itself was leaveless. He was quitely enjoing a novel when out of nowhere Tyler showed up and grabbed the book out of his hands. Oswald began to swear and demand to get back the book but Tyler simply laughed at him and pushed him , which causes Oswald to fall down. He got extremely angry about it but couldn't do anything . Tyler turned around and walked away , laughing ever louder before he suddenly screamed slightly in pain and dropped the book. He turned around and sweared at Oswald , because he kicked his legs. Oswald was confused ; wasn't he sitting at the oak while Tyler was leaving him there, like he won a triumphant battle? Tyler came closer and closer, which caused Oswald to become extremely scared. Before Tyler could punch him, he would feel another slight pain in his leg, which caused him to stop the attack and gave Oswald enough time to run away and grab the book while doing so.
