Appearance:
Reducio
I am an Indian boy with caramel skin. I have black hair that is curly and dark brown eyes. I am 5 feet tall and growing fast but only 75 pounds.


Personality:
Reducio
Even though I am Indian I was born in America and moved to England. I act very American and am still getting used to living in England. I am kind of shy when first meeting people but really open up after getting to know them. I am also very loyal to my friends. I sometimes get made fun of because I am an Indian boy who hangs out with the cool kids but I have gotten used to the price of my skin color. I am really into sports and also the type of kid to get all the girls due to my devilish smile (according to the baddies). I am most looking forward to Quidditch and Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts.


Backstory:
Reducio
My mom and my dad met at an arcade in the United States and I was born 5 years later. I lived in America for 9 years before moving to Britain due to my muggle dad´s job as a lawyer. My mom is a witch who went through Hogwarts herself, her name is Emily she was a Gryffindor. My dad is a muggle who knows about the wizarding world but doesn´t really understand it. His name is Stephen. I was brought up in a house divided between the magical and muggle worlds. My dad and I would watch baseball on TV and my mom would keep me entertained by showing me spells and pictures of her friends from Hogwarts (I always loved to see them waving back at me). We weren't exactly rich but we weren't poor either. Since I've always loved sports I am hoping to make the Quidditch team at Hogwarts. I was sad I had to leave my girlfriend Penny in the United States who was really cute and was my best friend but I am hoping to make other friends at Hogwarts. Since I've only been in Britain for 2 years I am still getting used to the accent and once in a while, I speak in American slang which people here don't understand so apologies in advance.



First Instance of Magic:
Reducio
One day when I was 10 years old I was on my skateboard when I slipped and fell but instead of hitting the pavement I levitated above the ground and I was gently placed on the pavement. I tried to recreate that moment many times but was unsuccessful on each attempt. I confided the truth in his mom unsure of how my dad would react. My mom explained to me what it meant and how I soon would attend Hogwarts.
