Hiraeth Gardens, Flat 3A
Clapham, London, UK

Kale lives alone in a very minimalistic industrial style flat that consists of an open living room/kitchen area with a small bedroom and bathroom off one side. The decor is very simple and utilitarian, and uses a large amount of white with grey and black touches. He doesn't feel the need for many decorations or color, as he views his apartment as simply a location he keeps his clothes. It could also be said that it is a testament to his lack of commitment and desire not to be tied down or cluttered by emotion.



Images from Kale's living room area. The cacti above the fireplace are the only decorations and living things that Kale has in his home. He hates flowers and other plants, and cannot keep them alive, but doesn't mind cactuses as they need little water. He likes to liken them to his mother, who he said was a prickly woman with hidden depths who could thrive in the harshest of weather. Not pictured is a small side table next to the couch with a few more cacti on it.



The workout area on the left has since been painted over in white, but all the tools remain the same. Aside from storage, boxing and exercising is about the only other use Kale has for his apartment. The kitchen is extremely bare and rarely has food in it. It only really gets used when Kia comes over, which is rare. He tends to go to her place than vice versa. The lights are fueled by magic and were made to look muggle as an aesthetic choice.



The bedroom and bathroom. The vine in Kale's bedroom is the only non cactus plant in the house and was a gift from Kia (as were most of the cacti). It is in a self watering pot though, so he doesn't mind its presence. Other things in the room include a rack for his clothes (no closet or dresser) and a mirror. The bathroom is equally bare with the usual sink, shower and toilet combo. The light behind the mirror is magically produced as well.

Family

Sean Ferris
44 years old  ~ Muggleborn ~ Hogwarts, Hufflepuff Alumni ~ Private Magizoologist

Appearance[1]: Sean is a very youthful looking man who most people assume is 10 years younger than he is. He attributes his fairly wrinkle free skin and muscular body to a healthy lifestyle and kickboxing, which are things he instilled in his children as well. He is tall and well-built with brownish blond hair and blue eyes. Before he moved to Brazil, he would be tanned during the spring and summer, but pale in the colder months. Now, though, he is tanned year round.

Bio: Widow of Celestine St. Murfordt and father of Kiana and Kale Ferris. Born in Ireland to an ex-soldier named Anthony Ferris and housewife Charlotte Carslyle. Sean's parents divorced when he was young and the boy was often torn between his macho and domineering father and his gentle but smothering mother. His father pushed him to hunt and camp and play sports while his mother encouraged him to cook and garden. He had a rather confusing and conflicted childhood and turned to animals, who he felt he could trust. It became his lifelong obsession.

His father didn't approve of him being a wizard while his mother was encouraging of his talent, unfortunately, Sean ended up living with his father when his mother moved to America. Thankfully the school managed to convince Anthony that Sean needed the lessons to keep his 'outbursts' from hurting others. Anthony made Sean swear to join the muggle military, like him, after school ended. Before this could be realized, Anthony died from a heart attack when Sean was in his final year. Since he was an adult, Sean chose not to move to America. Instead, he got a job at the MoM in the DoRCMC and married his Hogwarts sweetheart Celestine.

When the muggle registration act was beginning to pick up traction, Sean and Celestine took their children and Omar, Celestine's disabled father, to America to live with her family, the Petembers, in Lousisana. There Sean would study under local magizoologists to perfect his craft. When Celestine died, Sean was heartbroken but managed to remain strong. He took his family back to England where he got a job on a Magizoology ranch in Surrey, where he impressed the owner so much that it was willed to him when he died. Sean worked there for many years until recently, when he decided he needed a change. With both kids out of the house, he closed the ranch and took a job in Brazil, working for a wealthy Abraxan breeder as his personal Magizoologist.

Nicknames: None
Interesting Facts: Taught Kia about dragon wrangling by helping her take down a Peruvian Vipertooth. The dragon was unharmed (he wasn't killing them, but helping capture an escaped one) and it lost a tooth that Kia still wears as a pendant to this day.

Celestine St. Murfordt
Died at 31 years old  ~ Half-Blood ~ Hogwarts, Hufflepuff ~ Former Auror

Appearance[2]: Celestine was often described as an Amazon by those who saw her. She was quite tall and athletic, with dark creamy skin that belied her Creole heritage. She had full lips, almond shaped honey brown eyes and naturally curly black hair that she normally kept slicked back and tight. While she was a beautiful woman, her face was quite angular and her habit of glaring left her looking very fierce and unapproachable, which was just the way she liked it.

Bio: Late wife to Sean Ferris and mother of Kiana and Kale Ferris. Celestine was born near the start of the first Wizarding War and her parents were targets, her mother, Keenah Petember, for being a squib blood-traitor and her father, Omar St. Murfordt, for being a muggleborn and an auror. When she was about 3 years old, the two were attacked on a trip back to America. Keenah was killed by the Death-Eaters and Omar was paralyzed from the neck down. He and Celestine went to live with his mother. She was a tyrannical and very religious woman who saw her son and granddaughter as demon worshippers. Magic was forbidden in the house and Celestine was emotionally abused and neglected. She was forced to live in the attic and treated like a slave by her grandmother.

Hogwarts was a reprieve for her. She escaped her grandmothers wrath and was able to live somewhat safely at Hogwarts, despite the war. She was a very lonely and stand-offish girl who most people ignored or avoided, except for Sean Ferris. He was a year ahead of her and saw something he liked or at least sympathized with in her. He bugged the hell out of her for two years before she finally relented and agreed to be his friend. Once her shields were down, Sean's affection and admiration for her grew into love and she reluctantly reciprocated it. When she graduated from Hogwarts in 1986, she married Sean almost immediately and was expecting their first child within a few months.

Celestine idolized her father, so it was no surprise when she became an auror like him. She worked for the English Ministry for a few years before the Second Wizarding War started. When the Muggleborn Registration act was being created, Celestine knew her husband and father were going to be on the list, so she and Sean decided to move to America to live with her family. It was rough thanks to the purism rampant in the Petembers, but her grandmother Zelda welcomed and protected them. Celestine got a job for the American government as an auror.

A couple years after they moved to America, Celestine was given a mission to track down a couple of Death-Eaters that had escaped to the states. Despite her heroic efforts, Celestine was struck down by her quarry on May 30, 1999 and died in the hospital.

Nicknames: Cel
Interesting Facts: Despite being known as being cold and aloof, Celestine was a phenomenal cook who took great joy in cooking dinner for her family. She specialized in Crawdad Gumbo, which her children still dream of eating.

Kiana Selena Ferris
24 year old  ~ Half-Blood ~ Hogwarts, Slytherin ~ Field Agent for the WCU

Appearance[3]: Kia is a tall and well built, with muscles gleaned from kickboxing layered with feminine curves. She has a striking face with a rich tan and full lips that shows both of her racial backgrounds. Her eyes are a light blue-green and, thanks to a heavy brow, tend to make her look like she scowls a lot. Her long dark brown hair is naturally wavy, more like her fathers than her mothers.

Bio: Eldest child and only daughter of Sean and Celestine Ferris, elder sister to Kale Ferris. Currently dating Eamonn Mullen.

Nicknames: Kia
Interesting Facts: Though suffering debilitating stage fright, Kia has a beautiful singing voice and is able to sing in muggle clubs under the guise of 'Miss Scarlett', provided she wears a wig and lots of make up to disguise herself.


Kale Omar Ferris
22 years old  ~ Half-Blood ~ Hogwarts, Hufflepuff alumni ~ Healer-in-training

Appearance[4]: Like his elder sister, Kale is tall and well built. He also took kickboxing and has the well defined muscles to show for it. He also looks a lot like Kia, with the rich tan, full lips and blue-green eyes. His eyes are a bit darker and muddier than hers, and they also tend to change color more readily depending on what he wears. He keeps his dark brown hair shaved down but when it grows out, it is very curly like his mothers. He usually has a scruffy chin. On his back there is a criss cross pattern of deep scratch scars from the werewolf attack a few years back.

Bio: Youngest child and only son of Sean and Celestine Ferris, Younger brother to Kiana Ferris. In a complicated relationship with Pandora Puddifoot and soon to be father of her baby.

Interesting Facts: Kale hates flowers, especially anything you normally see at funerals. After suffering two traumatic events leading to loved ones deaths, Kale can't stand the sight or smell of them.
