    Pureblood, Halfblood or Muggleborn: Halfblood
    House & Year: Ravenclaw, 6th year

    Wand: 10.5 inch Ash w/ dragon heartstring core.

    Physical Description: Rohan is short for his age, about 5' 6" but he is surprisingly strong for his short stature.  He has light brown hair and deep emerald green eyes, paired with lightly tanned skin.  He has wide, thick eyebrows that display his every expression, a slightly bigger than average nose, and a small mouth.  His complexion is near flawless, with only an occasional blemish. 

    Personality Description: Rohan is not the smartest of the Ravenclaws, but he is quick with a wand and has memorized many spells.  He tends to be the jokester of the class, but subsequently ends up being the troublemaker.  He has friends, but isn't well-connected with his family.   

    If Rohan makes someone laugh, it often because he has done something idiotic, like jumping into the lake in the winter or asking the professor if they speak Portuguese in the middle of class.  When Han is bored with barely anything to do, he quickly paces or entertains himself by twiddling his fingers.

    He isn't exactly a pacifist at heart but will usually only fight if necessary, unless he gets quite angry.  If he becomes irate, his decisions will often be foolish.  He enjoys reading magazines and catching up with the daily happenings, participating in and watching sports.  He is an artist, and often expresses his true emotions through art.

    Rohan is a prankster at best, and will do almost anything to get in on a good prank, from lying to begging, he'll find a way to be in on it.  He is an adrenaline junkie, so he loves to get a good rush sprinting away from professors or prefects and sneaking around the corridors late in the night, anything involving pranks, Rohan loves it.  Well... except for consequences.

    He walks with a surprisingly straight posture, showing his confidence with others.  Rohan's favorite color is red, and it shows on his clothing.  He is in love with scarves and fedoras, and whenever possible he wears them.  He has an exceptional eye for fashion, but thinks that comfort is important.

    Rohan is usually supportive, and respects people for who they are.  He would only insult someone in jest, unless faced with an adversary, in which case he has mockery to spare.  Han is generally a bad sport in a competition, and is known to shout and flip the table if he loses Wizard Chess.  He tries to keep his composure most times, but often fails. 

    Graham enjoys being the leader of anything he is able to; be at the helm of a ship rather than the first mate.  He also likes to supervise others and issue orders, but won't be hesitant to take them out personally. 

    There is a dark side to Rohan.  He has a terrible temper, and will often punch the first thing he sees if he is made angry by someone or something.  He loves revenge, and will spend more time planning vengeance than doing homework.


    History: When the rich Italian muggle Amina Calabresi met the intelligent wizard, Iain Graham, it was love at first sight.  They dated, visited Amina's parents in Italy, and had fallen into an even deeper love.  Soon, the couple was happily married.  The first child of theirs was named Aiden.  This child was quirky and full of energy, but with no one to play with, his parents considered a second son.  Born just after Aiden, Lukas was the perfect friend for him.  The family was happy.  But Amina and Iain weren't done.  Their third and final child was the clever Rohan.

     When he was little, he and his brothers had a wonderful time playing together, under their mother's watchful eye.  Luckily, this muggle was aware of magic, so the strange instances of sorcery had explanations.  Because Iain had the high-paying job at Gringots, the family had plently of assets.  All was well.  Aiden and Lukas, being older than Rohan, constantly taunted him for whatever reason they could come up with, and the young Rohan was left to fend for himself when Amina passed away.  As much as their father tried, Iain could not save her.  After Amina was gone, Iain became sour and rotten.  He hated everything about anything without his loving wife.  Rohan, being kind at heart, tried to cheer his father up with jokes and funny stories, but nothing would replace his Italian lover.

     In his first five years at Hogwarts, Rohan easily fell into place with the other students, and to his glee, he was sorted into Ravenclaw.  He made friends easily, and spent most of his time hanging out in the Ravenclaw den after classes ended.  His favorite class was Ancient Runes, whereas his least favorite was Arithmacy  due to the fact that even if the teacher was interesting and able to entertain, Rohan hated memorizing formulas and repeating the same function over and over.  In the night hours, he worked on his homework and completed it… most of the time.  He only did it for his grades.  Doing work, after class, was his bane.

    How Do You Fit Into Your House?: Rohan is clever, smart, and thoughtful, instantly pointing his path in the direction of Ravenclaw, but being not the bravest and not the most ambitious, Gryffindor and Slytherin were taken out of the equation, so the final options being Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw, Ravenclaw was the most obvious of the four houses. 

    Writing Sample: Rohan sprinted to his room, frantically searching for the suitcase he had packed the previous day.  He practically kicked down the door and scanned the room.  "Bingo."  He l0cated the bag underneath his bed, then promptly leaped down the rickety stairs.  He landed in the lobby.  The room was overdone so guests would overlook how out-of-shape the rest of the home was.  It wasn't dirty, just disorganized.  The foyer had a nicely trimmed carpet accompanied by red walls with paintings hung periodically.  Suitcase in tow, he quickly opened the door, shouted goodbye to his father, and left for the train to Hogwarts.  He jumped into his blue caddy and hit the road.  The car was comforting as it reminded Rohan of his mother, who had passed away.  As he drove, thoughts of Hogwarts and his friends danced in his head.  When the station, came into view, he sighed in relief.  "Hogwarts, here we come!"  He still got excited when he entered platform 9 3/4.

    Sum up your character in one paragraph: Rohan is intelligent and passes all of his classes with moderate ease, clever because of all of the snide remarks his brothers had said to him, thoughtful about his past and future, short, strong: he has had many fights with Aiden and Lukas and even works out from time to time, funny; but he has nearly no limits to his humor, mature only when necessary, disconnected to his family due to his mean in nature bothers and soured father,  an open book; telling stories of his past and present frequently,  and will usually only fight if necessary.  He loves his mother with all his heart and misses her all the time.
