Physical Description: Sunny is a half-blood, 142cm tall, and has coffee-colored eyes and short-cropped, thin, dark, and unruly hair that always looks like he just rolled out of bed without brushing it first. He looks shorter and younger than his age (a source of teasing), but he's still got clean skin and some nice eyebrows, well shaped, not quite caterpillars, but ... eyebrows. His fingers are long and thin and nimble, great for playing the piano (which he doesn't play).

Mental Description: Sunny is... well, Sunny. He loves to play games, he likes to learn things, he likes going outside, and doing things with his hands. He's the last person you'd find studying up late in the common room - unless he fell asleep with his nose in a book (that funky book smell does that sometimes). He has trouble making friends because he has trouble doing what other people are doing for the sake of doing it, so he can seem quiet and introverted to others, he's just slow to warm up. He just sort of does his own thing, and he doesn't mind if others join in. He's not afraid of hard work or of going first, but that doesn't mean that he's a particularly brave person (he's terrified of girls!).

Sunny is bilingual, he speaks Thai and English. (Note: This is an English website, so in posts he will only speak English).

Biography: It's really hard for Sunny to talk about - it's not tragic, he's just homesick.

His family, his real family, is actually in Thailand. In Thailand, Sunny goes by Thith. Sunny's step-father and mother (Krit Pachrapa & Tuani Smitherson ) operate a tourist attraction (elephants, lodging, breakfast, & tour sort of thing), with the help of many other family members. They're doing fine, business is good.

It's just that when Sunny did magic for the first time, Sunny's aunt in England (Aunt Bee Smith) went on and on about Hogwarts and how awesome it was for her to go back in the day. Aunt Bee convinced his parents that Sunny would have a better education at Hogwarts. After all, Aunt Bee hasn't gotten to see her brother's child hardly any after he moved to Thailand. And also, after graduating Hogwarts, Sunny would have a prestigious education and probably get scholarship at an Ivy-League university. After a careful 1 second of consideration, his parents said: No. No way. This is our child and he should be with his family. Besides, the business needed all the family hands it could get.

A few months later, coupled with the government tightening restrictions around elephants, a tourist caused legal trouble for the tourist attraction. Aunt Bee offered the use of her lawyer, a loan to install the requisite safety devices and to settle the suit and to help comply with new elephant regulations, in exchange for custody of Sunny for the duration of his Hogwarts education. His parents said: No, no way. The tourist's lawyer said: we want more money. Then his parents agreed, as long as everything was in writing, and that when Sunny got back, that he would go to a fancy school to become a lawyer or doctor on scholarship (nothing else, strictly only those things), and that he would marry the woman his parents picked out for him when the time came (unlike their other son). Also, Sunny should be sending money back home regularly to help out the family.

Sunny's legal guardian is Aunt Bee Smith and he is a resident of Hetton, England. Aunt Bee wants Sunny to focus on his school work, so she gives him money to send. Sunny sends it back home with periodic letters to his family (postal mail).

First Instance of Magic: Sunny's first instance of magic was at home in Thailand. He was 8 years old, it was afternoon, and he was on the trail alone with one of the newest elephants and he was helping it get some tree bark during a rest stop (they love tree bark) when it spotted a bee and suddenly fled. Sunny was not able to coax it back to him and grew more anxious as evening approached. Suddenly, the tree bark he had been using to try to coax it back grew an elephant apple. and Sunny was able to use the elephant apple to coax it back to him and get back home safely. But that was in Thailand and Hogwarts doesn't accept international students.

Sunny was very nervous about not getting into Hogwarts now that he was in England, as he had to do a magic accident not on purpose, and what if he didn't do it in time to be accepted for his first term? When he was 10 carving some wood with his moving-in present of a pocket knife ("because every boy should have one"), he slipped badly - but somehow the knife bounced away and he didn't cut himself. He didn't think much of it. Two weeks later, he had an anxiety melt-down about not getting into Hogwarts due to not doing a magic accident (it just wasn't time for the letters yet). An hour later, there was a knock on their door from a kind stranger who had his suitcase, explaining that it had just appeared suddenly at the nearby bus stop. Since Sunny had left on his airport luggage stickers on it (whoops) he was able to deliver it to their house. The stranger was very confused, but Sunny was able to stammer out a fake story about being mugged.
