Tim spent the summers after his forth, fifth and sixth years on work experience placements within the hospital on different floors. He was mentored by Deputy Head Healer Sandy Misslethorpe by owl during Hogwarts term, and studied extra potions under the supervision of Professor Malfoy from fifth year onwards. Tim was also a very active member of the potions and duelling clubs.
Character History 2013 - 2017:At the start of Tim’s fifth year at Hogwarts he had already set his mind on becoming a Healer. It had been his intention since the botched obliviation of his late mother just before he began to attend Hogwarts. He approached the Deputy Head Healer, Sandy Misslethorpe, who mentored him by owl during the school term and helped Tim secure placements each summer at the hospital before formally beginning healer training after his NEWTs in the summer of 2015.
Tim remained a prefect in his sixth and seventh years.
Tim split with his first girlfriend, Akira Hericho during the 2012-2013 academic year. His focus on his studies and his prefect duties had become intense and he was not so laid back as he had been when they had got together. He found it hard to balance the younger Ravenclaw’s energy with his responsibilities and initiated the split.
There was a natural and intellectual attraction with fellow fifth year, Ascella Gamp, leading to dating late fifth year into sixth year. However, with the relationship between Ascella’s older brother and Tim’s cousin intensifying, the pair felt it best to split and focus on their studies rather than further complicate a family tree. They remain very close.
In their Seventh Year at Hogwarts, Tim and Cosima Early dated, but while they were different people who challenged each other intellectually, their relationship wasn’t to last past school as they were both career-driven and on different paths.
After Hogwarts, and during the early days of his healer training, Tim remained at home with his brother Ambrose, his young half-sister Amelia his father Francis and step-mother Gabrielle in Gabrielle’s house in Wiltshire. It had plenty of room and they had already accommodated Ambrose while he trained. It has helped him save money on a trainee salary, though he had now managed to move out to a Muggle house share with his old Ravenclaw housemate Soma Ardashpal in London.
Tim finished his 2 years of basic healer training the summer of 2017. He did short stints on all floors (as trainees are often invited to, to broaden their knowledge). He is now completing his more specialist training in Spell Damage (Fourth Floor), which is the floor he wishes to specialise in. Tim is very keen to be a memory magic specialist, and has begun training in legilimency.
Summary: Tim finished Hogwarts with the grades he needed to pursue his career as a Healer. He has moved out of the family home in the last year or so to live in Muggle London with old school friends. He has chosen Spell Damage as his floor and is keen to be a memory magic specialist.
