William Cross First year Slytherin
Full Name: William Cross
House: Slytherin
Age: 11
School Year: 1
Species: Human
Status: Half blood
History/Background Story: His father being a muggle, was adamant about William going to a muggle school until they were certain that he was a wizard, no matter how much his mother complained about it being a waste of time. His mother only agreed if William from an early age had a tutor teaching him latin. At first, William thought it to be a waste of time and useless skill but after a while, he started to gain an interest in everything old and ancient, but not the latin language.
He is a single child, born and raised near the forests outside London. Used to a big garden and freedom, he spent most of his time wandering the forests, looking for various critters and the occasional potion ingredient for his mother. William was a late bloomer so to speak. His mother was oh so relieved when the Hogwarts letter finally came and put an end to the shallow conflict of whether William was a wizard or not. His first tousle with magic was once when William was around nine years old and had been out in the woods all on his own, looking for bird feathers and bones when he had accidentally stumbled upon an adder. It had been resting close to a rock and William had accidentally stepped on its tail. Angered, the adder swiftly bit him only to notice that William's leg had turned rock hard and the snake's teeth couldn't pierce the skin. The snake had tried a few more times before William danced away, terrified and the snake, equally terrified decided to cut its losses and find another stone to sunbathe on. His father had always warned him about being careful in the woods, especially where there could be snakes, therefore, William didn't dare tell his parents what had happened when he came back home.
Having quite strict and overprotective parents lead William to stray away from them, prefering to make his own adventures elsewhere.
