Aidan Bishop
Status:
Pure-blood
Birthday:
03 Oct 2011
Nationality:
English
Residence:
Castle Combe, England
Function:
First year, Hufflepuff
Wand:
29,0 cm beech wood and dragon heartstring
Physical Description:
Aidan’s height is an average 1,28 cm, which makes it appear as if he will later grow to become tall compared to his mother, but short compared to his father.
He has medium length, brown hair often styled in a laid-back, tousled manner - though, in truth, it's just messy no matter what he attempts to do. His eyes can range in color from blue to green, depending on the lighting and his mood. Typically, when in a good mood, his eyes will be a soft green; when annoyed or angry, they can appear a cold blue.

Personality:
He has a compassionate heart, always willing to lend a helping hand or offer encouragement to his fellow classmates and friends. Aidan was taught to be kind and is intolerant to bullying. He would rather risk his own hide to help someone out.
Aidan possesses an insatiable thirst for knowledge, constantly seeking to explore and understand everything around him. This curiosity also sometimes gets him in trouble as he sticks his nose in somebody else’s business. But, besides his curious nature, he tries to keep himself out of trouble.

Aidan’s own standards for himself and his work can be excessively high, leading to unnecessary pressure and disappointment when results don’t meet his idealized hopes and expectations. Besides that, his desire to solve problems independently can sometimes hinder group work, as Aidan tends to resist giving out tasks even when collaboration could show better results. It is something he’s actively trying to work on.

Family Information:

Family: Bishop / Whitewood

Father: Rodrick Bishop (Pureblood), who is an Obliviator for the Department of Magical Law Enforcement
Mother: Isabelle Whitewood (Pureblood), who works as a Curse-Breaker
Sister: Agnes Bishop (Squib)

Family Backgrounds
Bishop: The Bishop family is a long line of pureblood mages, having old Norwegian roots under the name ‘Biskop’, which - with the moving of the family and the evolving of the languages - turned into Bishop. They were a wealthy family during the Late Medieval times, functioning as traders of high-quality herbs and remedies, but lost power during the active hunting of witches and wizards. Agnes Bishop is the first known, or recorded, to have no magical abilities.

Whitewood: There is little known about the family besides them originating from Germany under another surname. Isabelle’s grandmother fled to England during WWII and likely changed her name to blend in and start anew.


Biography:
Before Aidan's start at Hogwarts, he lived a quaint and idyllic life in Castle Combe, Wiltshire, England, nestled in the picturesque countryside. His family's home is a cozy cottage with a thatched roof and a garden overflowing with colorful flowers and herbs, many of which would never be found in a muggle garden center. His family formed a close-knit and loving unit, where laughter and warmth were aplenty even though they were often away for work.

In Castle Combe, Aidan had a small circle of friends, many who were also magical kids from neighboring wizarding families. They would spend their days exploring the forest surrounding town, playing imaginative games, and occasionally getting into mischief. Whether it was chasing after 'invisible creatures' or pretending to practice made up spells, Aidan cherished these carefree moments with his friends, knowing that soon they would all embark on their own journeys at Hogwarts and they could do everything for real.

First Instance of Magic:
Aidan's first instance of magic happened when he was 8 years old. He was playing in the backyard of his family's home when he summoned a toy to him while trying to reach for it. Startled and amazed, Aidan watched in awe as the little wooden train hovered in the air before gently floating back down into his hand.
