Oops, the form's kind of... long. Should I edit out some parts, or...? (Also, I'll edit in the height / weight later.) [hider]Name: Norvel Ivanovich Orlov Date of Birth: July 1st 1988 Appearance: Bright reddish hair | dull grey eyes | freckles | has a few minor scars from doing reckless things | peachy complexion Blood Status: Half-blood Personality: Norvel is, if anything, a really big pushover. As long as you claim to be his "friend" and promise you'll "be friends forever", he'll gladly follow you to hell and back. This's usually in the form of him acting in a way that others usually find... creepy (secretly following you, "taking care" of (usually) imagined threats while your back is turned, picking fights with people who even look at you funny, etc.). And if you have other friends and he feels like they're getting in the way of his "true friendship"... He does tends to get a little extreme when it comes to this sort of thing. Most of the time, while he's not exactly meek, he'll definitely hold his friends' decisions above his own. Even if he's uncomfortable with what they're doing (or if they're doing morally dubious things), he probably won't say anything about it and go along with the flow. For example, his friends could probably tell him to juggle broken pieces of glass and he wouldn't question it. (...That's happened already, actually.) Also, he can be surprisingly whiny at times, which can be... extremely annoying, to say the very least. The only thing other than friends that Icarus really seems to treasure is the attention from them. (This's probably mostly because his former friends used to ignore him a lot.) So the only surefire way to tick him off is to completely ignore him, really. Wand: Hawthorn, Dragon Heartstring House: Hufflepuff Best Classes: Flying, Transfiguration Worst Classes: Defense Against the Dark Arts, Potions History: Norvel was born to a halfblood wizard and a muggle born witch on the first of July, 1988, as an only child. His parents had always been rather supportive of Dumbledore and his ideals, so he grew up believing purebloods and halfbloods were equal. And, having a father working for the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, he also grew up with a decent amount of knowledge on this sort of thing. They were somewhat overprotective, as well, and preferred to keep their son in sight where they could see him rather than have him running around unsupervised. He was content for the first few years of his life, but having no siblings, he did start to feel rather lonely as he got older. Realizing this, they decided to encourage frequent visits between him and one of their friend's children, Natasha. Norvel, however, soon realized she wasn't exactly easy to get along with. In fact, her seemingly erratic personality only served to confuse him and, eventually, caused him to start avoiding her and start looking for better friends. So, eventually, he started wandering around the neighbourhood without his parents' knowledge. Not long after, he ran into some of the other kids in the neighborhood. Even though Norvel soon found out their views went against pretty much everything he'd been taught, they figured it'd be entertaining having someone as gullible as him around, and convinced him to stay. At first, they just did little things like pull pranks on the muggles in the area, but then they soon moved onto bigger things and eventually ended up setting several muggles' houses on fire. Norvel' parents caught on after that and stopped him from visiting his friends, but weren't really sure how to deal with him otherwise. When he received the letter, though, his parents gladly sent him off, hoping Hogwarts would be a fresh start for him. Norvel, however... wasn't so happy.[/hider]
