STAFF ACCOUNT: Aulis Vorozheykin

Physical Description: Six feet tall and broadly built, Aulis Vorozkeykin is a handsome man, though you'd never know it in the winter when the freezing temperatures of Russia force this new Headmaster to layer up. A pretty face distracts from his dyed hair, which is slightly fried from having been bleached like clockwork every time the roots show up since he turned sixteen. It's a wonder what pale blue eyes and high cheekbones can do.

Mental Description: Deceitful, tricky, and altogether untrustworthy, Aulis may seem like naught but a lying, scheming villain, but can you really say that of someone who is just in way too deep? He's dug himself into a vaguely Seer-shaped hole and doesn't know who else to be at this point in his life.

Aulis's life is one giant lie, and he fears nothing more than getting caught in it. Whether he is actually evil or not is debatable - but he is certainly willing to do whatever it takes to keep his secret.

A brilliant mind used for all the wrong reasons, Aulis has learned to make people trust him whilst he searches out all the skeletons in their closet to use against them if necessary. If anyone tells you that he has dossiers on everyone from friend to foe, please inform them that it is just a rumour. (At least officially.)

Funnily enough, he's actually quite a talented divinatory artist and really enjoys the subject - at least until he spills tea on his fancy coats. Aulis is also a talented poet (one needs to be, to come up with false prophecies).

Biography: The Pajari family is one of the eldest and most prolific Seer lineages in all of Scandinavia, dating back hundreds of years with nary a single child born sans the Sight. (Well, at least all the children they claim as their own have the gift. Those without it... there's a reason they don't use the Pajari name.) Unelma Pajari, "The Dreamer", hailed from this family; as a child, and like many generations of Pajaris before her, Unelma attended Beauxbatons, where she was taught to control, interpret, and understand her visions, many of which came to her in dreams - hence the nickname. Sought-after as a Seer not only in her native home of Finland but all over the world, Unelma travelled extensively post-graduation for her work; this led her to Russia, specifically a small town in the Saratov oblast, where she met Lavrentiy Vorozheykin. Lavrentiy was a маглы - a Muggle - and, yet, he clocked her immediately as being different. Perhaps it was the snow-white hair or the tarot card deck that spilled haphazardly from her bag when they bumped into each other; either way, he never minded her peculiarity. That was more than could be said for the Pajaris. When Unelma returned to inform them that she had fallen in love with someone of non-magical descent, and that they would be married in Russia soon, the family laughed in her face. The marriage was illegitimate, they said, and any children borne of it would surely not bear the gift. The first and only child born, Aulis - given a Finnish name, just in case - was Unelma's only hope for returning to the fold, for proving the strength of her blood, and from a very young age, Aulis was told he would have the Sight. Trained to be a Seer - to be the first half-blood Seer in his family in over a century. He would be the little prince, the little heir, a Pajari, despite his surname. spoiler alert it didn't work out too well

First Instance of Magic: As a very young child, the boy enjoyed spending time in his mother's divinatory parlor; the tea leaves smelled nice, and the tarot cards made a fun sound when falling to the floor, even if he didn't quite like the way his mother snapped at him to pick them up afterwards. At five, Aulis was spending one such normal evening in the parlor when he noticed a smudge on his mother's crystal ball, way up on the table. The Seeress always liked to keep it pristinely clean, and while the rag used to buff streaks off the glass was situated on the edge of the table, within the kid's reach, the crystal ball itself was too far back. Aulis began to cry, frustrated that he was not able to reach, and when he looked up it had rolled off its pedestal and closer to the edge without him touching it or reaching for it; it was only when Unelma walked in to find her son polishing the crystal ball she had definitely placed out of his reach on purpose that it occurred to her that magic may have occurred. Of course, his mother walking in startled Aulis, and he dropped the ball - which shattered on the cold stone floor below, a million glistening shards of glass scattering every which way. Unelma was so excited for Aulis's magic manifesting in her divination parlor, though, that she barely gave him a scolding for breaking it. After all, if the boy's first act of magic was related to a crystal ball, surely he would have the gift someday.
