Physical Description:
Elliot is on the taller side for his age, around 150cm in height and is on the slender side. He has a couple of beauty marks on his face, one by his upper lip on the right and one on each cheek as well as some light freckles spread across his cheeks. His eyes are a deep sea blue and his hair is a natural dark chocolatey brown color. Elliot's bangs and hair are on the longer side and has a natural wave to it which becomes more apparent the longer he's gone without getting it cut.

Mental Description:
Elliott is a kind and caring person, often far too kind for his own good. He loves to be outside running around in the sun and fresh air. Growing up he often was outgoing and friendly with everyone he met and also loved to play around and joke with his friends.
While he is a very fun loving person he grew up pretty fast, helping take care of himself at home while his mother was at work. He is pretty independent because of that but he doesn't like to be alone if he can help it.

Biography:
His father had died when he was young, due to his work as an auror he had been killed in the field during a job, so he never got to know him outside of a few pictures his mother had of the three of them when he was a baby. His mother worked hard to support them both and made sure he was always comfortable.

Elliott was more close with his mother's family than his father's but he still got to see them on occasions like holidays and birthdays. During the summer and winter holidays his mother would usually take him to see both sides of his family.

His mother's side of the family was decently well off, enough that they helped provide things for him when his mother was struggling. Although he appreciated them caring for him and his mother he would always see his mother trying to tell them not to go out of their way to do things for them and would say she can manage. Because of this he learned to not ask for more than he needed, selflessly in a way and not wanting his mother to feel upset by her family's gifts.

Being an only child he found ways to stay entertained when he had to be home alone. He picked up playing guitar and then piano a little bit and he would also play games as well.

First Instance of Magic:
Until he had his first instance of magic he never really heard much about his father. When he was around 6 years old he was playing while his mother corrected some papers. He was having a good time playing with one of his favorite toys, a superhero figurine, when he had somehow made it start to float in the air. His mother glanced over at him to check on him and saw the toy in mid air and was at a loss for words and nearly dropped the paper in her hand.

At that point is when she had finally told him about his father's history, his history being a wizard and having magic. It seemed so far fetched that Elliott didn't believe her at first. After she explained it more it ended up sinking in that it was the truth and that was why he had never really knew much about the father's side of them family.

Things really became real when he received his letter to Hogwarts. He was really invited to attend a fancy school to learn magic. It meant being away from his mother a lot though so he told her at first that he didn't want to go but she insisted he think it over and that his father would be proud to see him go to his old school. With that thought in mind he decided to go and knew it would be his chance to feel close to his father.
