DRAVEN MIRADOR | SECOND YEAR | SLYTHERIN
PAST INFORMATIONAPPEARENCE AND PERSONALITY
Quiet and reserved, Draven kept to himself most days, his nose buried in philosophy and poetry books. One wouldn't say he was antisocial, as he could hold his ground in a conversation; he simply preferred the company of dead authors. There weren't many people he opened up to, keeping a nearly frigid distance between himself and his peers - a stance learned perhaps from Mr. Mirador. He was the perfect son, really. The boy no one ever had to worry about. Which was good then, but would come to bite him soon enough.
Draven Mirador was a tall, slender boy with ashen skin and a head of curly black hair that always seemed to fall just right, no matter what time of day you caught him at. There were deep, dark circles around his eyes - courtesy of one too many nights spent reading. He was elegant and poised, standing with an air of quiet dignity. His clothing was expensive and well-made, his robes clean enough you could eat your lunch off them. He always smelled faintly of an airy, fresh cologne.
PRE-HOGWARTS HISTORY
The Mirador manor had been dead silent for as long as Draven could remember it. The huge empty halls empty devoid of life, it's inhabitants being the only things that disturbed the frigid house. Abbadon. Rory. Iris. And Draven. The four of them against the world, fighting to keep their place amongst the living. Iris had lost that battle. After her death, Rory could no longer bear the quiet. So she made some noise. Noise that would last for a good long time. And then she left, taking away what little color there was.
And then there were two.
Mister Abbadon Mirador and Draven. The two men didn't know how to talk to one another, so they didn't. Draven raised himself, spending entire days in his father's giant library, pouring over the pages of books so thick he could barely lift them. They were what brought the color and the noise back. They were the only thing he needed. Draven lost himself in the stories, reveling in the adventures other little boys could go on, that he only needed to wait a few more years to join.
TC;DU - Abbadon Mirador married Rory, had two kids with her - Iris and Draven. Iris died during her 5th year at Hogwarts. She was on winter, skating on the lake behind the Mirador Manor. The ice wasn't as thick as she'd thought it was, and she wasn't quite as good a swimmer as she claimed she was. There was no one else around to save her when the heavy winter cloak dragged her down, no one to help her break the ice when she swam up and was met with a frozen lake keeping her from precious air.
She drowned. With the cold and the lack of air, it wasn't long before she could no longer fight and sank to the bottom.
Rory couldn't bear the quiet her death had left behind, so she coped the only way she knew how - by causing problems. Her cheating (of 7 years) was dicovered when she got careless. There was a rushed, quiet divorce which was kept off the papers to avoid soiling the Mirador name. And Mister Abbadon and Draven were left alone, with Abbadon nursing a broken heart and Draven having to practically raise himself, living vicariously through books.
THE AFFAIR
Rory Mirador's affair was kept quiet. It brought great shame upon her family and Abaddon's, and after the divorce was finalized she was forbidden from stepping foot in the Mirador manor or contacting her son. Some would think she'd go to her lover, Dockson Gray. A clock maker in England, who'd rejected magic and lived in a small house away from society. But she didn't, leaving both men she'd loved to raise her kids alone. Earl Gray and Draven Mirador grew up without meeting one another, the former knowing and hating what his mother had done.
THE SILENCE WAS DEFENING
Abbadon Mirador was always a withdrawn man, quiet and polite, doing his best to avoid drama. But after his divorce was finalized, he stopped talking all together. The chemists couldn't find anything wrong with him physically, yet there he was, not speaking. Over the years, he learned how to sign and used this method to communicate with Draven.
FIRST INSTANCE OF MAGIC
The first time Draven did magic saved his life. He'd climbed on the roof of the Mirador manor with his sister. While the two were talking, one of the shingles came loose. He slipped. He fell. He slid down the roof and went tumbling over the edge. Rather than plummeting to his death, smashing his head against the jagged rocks which lay at the bottom of the manor, he floated down gracefully. Panicking all the while nonetheless. That was the last time he climbed on the roof.
MAGICAL INFORMATION
AMORTENTIA | The smell of old books and citrus. His mom's perfume. The shampoo his sister used on her hair before she died.
PATRONUS | Thunderbird (in 6th year)
ERISED | When Draven first walks in front of the mirror, the shimmery surface will go dark, leaving only him standing in the center of the old wooden frame. Then slowly, figures would appear all around him. A delicate hand set on his shoulder, caressing his cheek. A warm smile. His mother's arms around him, his sister painting her nails in the corner of the room. Mr. Mirador's head thrown back in a laugh which Draven hadn't seen in years.
BOGGART | Mr. Mirador
POLYJUICE | Draven's polyjuice potion is incredibly interesting. It's a brilliant white liquid which has an incandescent glow and is impossibly cold as it goes down your throat. At first, it won't taste like anything at all. Then, it will feel like an ink capsule has exploded in your mouth, the sickening salty taste seeming to coat your tongue and lips. What's even stranger about his potion is that it will seem to have something moving inside it, as if a creature is swimming within its depths, disturbing the surface ever so slightly.
THESTRALS | no
WAND | 35,0 cm spruce wood and thunderbird tail feather
