Physical Description:
With a boyish good looks, Gabriel could charm any girl with a smile. Standing at 5'9" his frame may sometimes seem too skinny. His dark brown hair is kept short but just long enough that he can style it, but still keep it out of his face. Depending on the style his small ears sometimes seem to disappear into it, giving his head an almost funny kind of shape. Curious and stunning steely green eyes, rimmed with a deeper shade watch from under slender dark eyebrows. His eyebrows, however, are rather low-set making his large forehead seem even more so. His nose slightly curved at the bridge leaves one's eyes looking down to the soft mouth below. Low cheekbones and the squaring jaw create a soft but handsome frame to his face completed by his rounded chin.

Personality Description:
Gabriel is the friendly sort who doesn't mind helping out someone in need. He is, however, wary of any shady behavior. If someone asks him to help and he is suspicious of what they want he may decline, depending on if they're really good friends or not. In the matter of things he knows Gabriel is somewhat cocky, believing he can learn to pull of anything if he tries, like a Charms Spell. Gabriel enjoys being prepared for anything including the abstract such as getting lost at sea or having to pretend to be a muggle. While he may not take the classes for it, he will sometimes grab a book or two and read at a sedate pace whenever he's bored.

History:

Gabriel was born early in the morning on April 5th, 1993 to his mother Abigail and his proud father Nathaniel Sabern. They had been trying to get pregnant for the better part of two years before their attempts deemed the results they desired. While they would have been equally happy with a daughter, Nathaniel was not-so-secretly thrilled at having a son to whom he could pass on his 'manly' knowledge.

During his early years his personality had already begun to show through. He would babble at strangers on the street, holding full conversations in his own baby language until they moved on only to start another conversation with someone else. Gabriel was also curious about everything he could get his tiny little hands on. His parents had to double check for potential hazards often, there was no telling what he'd get into.

His childhood was spent following his dad around, and when his dad was busy working he would follow his mom. Gabe learned much through observation, and their time spent at each home – half the year in a wizarding home and the other half in a muggle home – had him quickly learning the differences and how to separate them. It wouldn't be good to tell a muggle neighbor his dad had apparated to work early that day.

Then finally the day came when he turned eleven and he received his letter for Hogwarts. His parents were proud, of course, but Gabriel was absolutely thrilled. Abigail reminded him frequently it wasn't just fun and games, lots of work and study were involved to which the young boy would just nod in understanding and wonder about what kinds of new people he'd meet.

His classes were a little bumpy at first but they smoothed out as he got used to the workload and expectations. Flying class never went very smooth, however, since as a boy he had an accident on a training broom that caused him to have a broken nose, cracked ribs, and multiple lacerations and he never fully got over it. By the end of the year, however, he was at least roughly average when it came to flying on a broom.

Over the following years Gabriel became active in many festivities, a few clubs, and he never missed watching a Quidditch game for some good, friendly competition. Of course they weren't always so friendly, people got very upset about wins and losses.

The only real big change during the years was when his younger brother, Aaric, was born August 17th, 2005. Gabriel took very well to being a big brother and would often play with his younger sibling and watch him so his parents could have some relaxation while he was home, so long as he wasn't busy with his horse or dog anyway.

Now entering his 7th year Gabriel looks forward to finishing with a bang and making memories that he'll enjoy carrying with him for the rest of his life.

Classes:

Core Classes Astronomy Charms Defense Against the Dark Arts Herbology No Potions No No

Electives No No Muggle Studies No No

How Do You Fit Into Your House?: Gabriel is the friendly outgoing sort. He doesn't like to study all the time like Ravenclaws even though he does like learning certain potentially handy things. Also unlike Hufflepuffs he doesn't sit back and see how things unfold, and would much rather be part of events.

Writing Sample:

Sum up your character in one paragraph: Gabriel is a good, friendly, outgoing guy. He doesn't mind helping out but isn't afraid to say no if he doesn't agree morally or lawfully (depending on the situation). Sometimes competitive he  enjoys to go for long rides and stay active.

I want to make him a year younger so that he's a 7th year THIS year

Reworked his history to be thus:

Gabriel was born early in the morning on April 5th, 1991 to his mother Abigail and his proud father Nathaniel Sabern. They had been trying to get pregnant for the better part of two years before their attempts deemed the results they desired. While they would have been equally happy with a daughter, Nathaniel was not-so-secretly thrilled at having a son to whom he could pass on his 'manly' knowledge.

During his early years his personality had already begun to show through. He would babble at strangers on the street, holding full conversations in his own baby language until they moved on only to start another conversation with someone else.

Now entering his 7th year Gabriel looks forward to finishing with a bang and making memories that he'll enjoy carrying with him for the rest of his life.

Why do you wish to change these area(s):
I had intended for Gabriel to be a pure blood originally but became lazy/overwhelmed, with Kit's help I've fixed that issue.

His history change isn't really a big deal but it was bothering me so I reworked it to make it more about him and not about his pets.

His age is because I'm not ready for him to be an adult yet and since he wasn't played much at all before he became inactive I didn't see much of an issue.
