Personality
Pedro is described as a firecracker. He has a short fuse and ANYTHING that makes him mad makes him REALLY mad. Pedro is sensitive about being short and defaults to aggression. He is an honest person to a fault and will bluntly tell others how he feels about things, even if he is not asked.

History
Pedro grew up as the middle child of seven children in Brazil. He often felt forgotten about due to the chaotic nature of his household environment. Pedro's family was not financially well off growing up. They often did not know when their next full meal would be. The escape Pedro felt would often happen when playing football with the other children in his neighbourhood. Being born and raised in Brazil Pedro was no stranger to the game of football. Pedro's first instance of magic happened during a pickup game of football. His kick at the goal fell short before beginning to move again on its own. It was a GOOOOOAL, but the most magical goal of them all.

Being a Muggle born, Pedro was the first, and so far the only, member of his family to present magical abilities, or at least to his own knowledge. Prior to his eleventh birthday, someone showed up at his home and explained to his family that Pedro was magic and that they could treat him to control his magic. Not only could he learn to control his magic, he needed to, or it would be extremely dangerous. Beyond these perks, there was an even more obvious perk. He would be provided free lodgings at a school. This would provide him the chance to get a good education and relieve some financial burden on his family.

Abilities

The Muggle Condition - All actions requiring an accuracy roll get +3 accuracy.

As a child growing up in a less fortunate home, Pedro was not a stranger to physical labour. Helping his mother with laundry, cooking, or cleaning was the norm as soon as he was dexterous enough with his limbs to not make any mess worse than it already was. Aside from helping his mother, Pedro would also help his father, clearing the yard from weeds and helping trim the bushes and trees when they grew too long. Pedro grew quickly into a hearty boy. Despite his small stature, he was strong, agile, and dexterous.

These physical abilities transferred over to Pedro's main hobby: football. He was strong. He could use his low center to push the other children around. He had more stamina and could take more hits, and harder hits than the other average child. His reflexes were cat like in nature, instantaneous. Pedro would cultivate this ability, trying to use it to any advantage he could. Winning a game of football by scoring the game winning goal, stealing the ball, or doing an athletic pass it did not matter. Pedro would use his natural physical conditioning to out preform the other children. Outside of sports, he would also use it to finish chores faster, giving him more free time than his younger, slower siblings. The more he used muggle tools, the more familiar he became with them, allowing him to be more efficient with them.

This extra time would allow him to play more football, which in turn only improved his physical condition, making him faster and stronger. He would be able to run faster to and from the football pitch, giving him more and more time to practice. The more time Pedro had, the more time he would spend, incidentally improving his condition more and further enhancing his physical abilities. Pedro quickly became one of the strongest kids in the neighbourhood, brutish in nature and dominating in sports because of his natural athletic ability. Even with his small size, he was able to physically overpower the other kids. This fueled his competitive nature, making Pedro push himself to his physical limits in the pursuit of excelling at sports. On days with poor weather when the football pitch was unfit for use, Pedro would train via push ups, skipping rope, and jumping jacks. His physical condition became almost all-consuming, a way to make up for his short stature that he was so insecure about.

2nd Ability: TBD
