    Full Character Name: Ambrosio Lope Dimas (Prieto)
    Character Birthday & Age: 3 julio 1981 – 27 años
    City & Country of Birth: Madrid, Spain
    Pureblood, Halfblood or Muggleborn?: Halfblood
    Alma Mater: Beauxbatons Academy of Magic
    Occupation Criminal

    Type of Criminal: Murderer/Thief/Hired

    Allegiances / Loyalties / Political Faction: N/A, he’s only in it for his personal gain.

    Previous Convictions or Crimes?: Yes, he has committed multiple murders upon unknowing hikers in the French Alps, both in and out of werewolf form. Whilst out of form, he committed the crimes for personal gain, i.e. whatever valuables they had on them.

    He has also been hired by different criminal factions and employers to be an assassin for hire, thief for hire, etc. Currently, he skulks around Knockturn Alley, where he’ll have the opportunity to make more money for his criminal actions.

    What crimes might you commit in the future?  Discuss all possible: More murders are definitely possible, seeing as he is a werewolf, and won’t trap himself anywhere when he changes. However, he does know how to avoid the Ministry and those against him, and therefore, hides in certain places when transforming. He’ll also probably commit more thievery and other crimes, due to his own love of money, and probably find employers to do their criminal deeds.

    Are you currently under pursuit by the Ministry of Magic?: Possibly. If I am, then they’re doing a horrible job of catching me.



    Creature type: Unregistered Werewolf

    Employed? If yes, where and for how long: He takes jobs as they come. So, whoever will pay him, he isn’t really picky when it comes to what he has to do.

    Where does your character spend the most time?: He generally lurks around Knockturn Alley and Hogsmeade, alternating between cycles. He has a small flat he rents in Knockturn to have a place to sleep, but normally he is a night dweller and continually alters his stays in his apartment or in the streets.

    What is your understanding of your character's special abilities or
    attributes and weaknesses?:
    Ambrosio knows he is special, strong, unique. He takes veritable pleasure in the fact that his being bitten allowed him to gain such strength and agility. However, he had to stop wearing silver, as it left burns when he did, and he knows that silver will indeed stop him if it came to his end. Other than the typical werewolf weaknesses, Ambrosio doesn’t allow fear within his internal spectrum of thinking, therefore, he doesn't really understand that when he changes, it is a rather painful debacle. His overconfidence is probably a big weakness in his mind.

    Is your character a dark creature?: Typically, yes, he tends to align himself with the dark arts and all that that entails.
    If yes, please list crimes likely to be committed: See the above inquiries.
    Is your character currently under pursuit by the Ministry of Magic? See the above inquiries. Also, being an unregistered werewolf, he generally doesn't have access to wolfsbane, so he uses what money from crimes he gets and has special batches made up in Wiedman's apothecary, though sometimes he chooses not to use it.



    Wand Description: Wood of maple, core from a fang of a runespoor, inflexible in strength, smooth in surface, ten inches in length.

    Physical Description:

    Build/Body type: Slender
    Estimated Height/Weight: 6’ 4”/152 lbs.
    Hair color: Milk chocolate brown
    Eye color: Sultry brown
    Skin color: Hispanic tan, olive
    First Impression: “Look at that face, pretty boy. But damn, you're skinny.”
    Any odd/outstanding features?: Pouty lips, scars on his lower back from werewolf attack

    Personality Description: To start off, Ambrosio is a dark individual. He has been ever since he was a child. So, when it comes to his thinking, he tends to have a slightly off-center, skewed view of the world, of people, of pretty much everything in general. Being raised in an orphanage, he wasn’t one to really interact with others, at least not in a civil way. He was usually in a dark corner, sulking to himself or using other children to get what he wanted.

    When it comes to getting what he wants, not much can stop him. The only things he’s ever let stop him was a pretty boy or girl. And generally, not even those can do much to stop him. By means of pain, pleasure, etc., if he wants something, he’s going to have it. Other cases where he didn’t get his bidding were when he felt he was close to being caught by authorities, so he ran instead.

    When it comes to weaknesses, beyond the typical werewolf weaknesses, his are those of pretty boys and pretty girls. He doesn’t have a preference, and has been known to cater one of each at the same time. But when it comes to relationships, he doesn’t tend to have them, or at most keep them for a long time. Typically though, he uses them, leaves them, and they never see him again. He’s unsure if he’ll ever settle himself with one person.

    Of his nicer traits, he keeps them well hidden. He has a soft spot for children, of those he would choose to  never harm outside transformation. When he is a wolf, however, it is not within his agreeable mind to pass up anything in his path. As well, he likes to be as quick as possible when he makes a crime or a kill, so if that is considered a nice trait, then his agility would come into play. He knows how to seduce, too, as he is a charming Spanish devil, and that tends to help him out in the long run.

    History: Ambrosio Lope Dimas was born on the first weekend in July of 1981, where his biological parents were still on the edge of having the baby. His mother was a witch, and didn't want to raise her half-blooded son with a father who would outcast him, so she convinced him against having children. His mother swore she would have the child, but she would not keep it, and thus her husband agreed. So, upon Ambrosio’s birth, his parents took him to an orphanage, placed him upon the stoop, and took their leave, not to be seen nor heard from again.

    He was raised since his birth in that orphanage, where he learned that no one really cared about him. First off, it wasn’t a wizarding orphanage, so when something weird happened, it always happened around him. Second, the orphanage patrons didn’t care whether the children got adopted or not, so the living conditions weren’t up to par. It was only until Ambrosio was around seven years old that things started to change. He was adopted by a Spanish man and a French woman by the last name of Prieto, who took the young boy to live with them in their small French home off the coast of Normandy.

    His new ‘parents’ were also of the magical aura, and that is why they chose him. Alejandro Prieto and his wife, Analiese, were very kind to Ambrosio, whom they could tell was a dark child. They, too, weren’t exactly the kindest of wizarding folk, which pleased Ambrosio well, as they were a typical dark family. Alejandro worked for the French Ministry, which was corrupt in and of itself, and Analiese was the daughter of a previous Lord Voldemort follower whom had died in the previous war. She stayed at home with Ambrosio, teaching him things he hadn’t ever thought he’d learn, like spells and other wizarding tricks.

    To no surprise, he received an invitation to Beauxbatons where he gladly accepted. At the school, under the eye of Olympe, he learned multiple inquiries of charms, potions, and his excelling subject, the dark arts. Well, for the school if was defensive magic, but for Ambrosio, it was a means of a career, of a life he’d not really expected to have, but one he knew he’d excel in and be great at. His years at the school were more a blur to him than anything, and once he completed the academia, he moved out on his own, ready to take his place in a handful of criminals.

    His first thought was to go back to Spain, and erase the memory of the orphanage he was raised in, and he did just that. At the age of seventeen, Ambrosio apparated into the office of his former guardians, taking them both out with the killing curse of his wand. He refused to murder any of the children though, and left them there, where most of them decided to escape the building. Once the place was deserted, as it was by nightfall, Ambrosio torched the place, never to lay eyes on it again.

    While on his expedition to Spain, still aged seventeen, he took refuge in an abandon shack in the mountains along the border of France and Spain. But little did he know, the small shelter was actually inhabited by a werewolf. Ambrosio was only in need of essentials, so seeing a sofa that is where he decided to sleep for the night. He wasn’t ready to leave Spain just yet, so it was really the only option he had. Unfortunately, though, it was during the cycle of the full moon, and the werewolf wasn’t too thrilled to see someone bunking in his home. Or, rather, he was overjoyed, for it was fresh meat, and with one bite to the Ambrosio’s lower hip, it was like a frenzy. Ambrosio awoke quickly, grabbing his wand, only to be scratched harshly on his lower back and thrown across the room. Getting up enough strength, he raised his wand at the charging wolf, shouted the killing curse, and watched it fall hard right to his feet. Ambrosio passed out then and there, and woke up to see his wounds clotted and a naked dead blonde woman on the floor. Since then, he has been a werewolf, which makes ten years to the day.

    After the attack, he immediately apparated back to his adopted parents home, where they helped him and healed him. He told them he wouldn’t be staying and to not try and contact him. Understandably, they agreed and watched as he took his leave. He didn’t have much option, but he knew his life was going to alter, and he’d rather it be altered where it would benefit him. So at the age of eighteen, he packed his belongings and moved to London, where he figured it would be best to start over.

    Now twenty-seven, he lives in a small flat in Knockturn Alley, and does criminal jobs for anyone who’ll hire him. He is not above murder, thievery, or basically anything. If the Ministry knows who he is, he’s done a fabulous job of avoiding them, because he has yet to be caught.

    Sum up your character in one paragraph:
    Ambrosio is simply thus: a dark individual, only working for his personal gain, and a werewolf to top it off. Sure, he has his pleasures from time to time, but typically, he keeps to himself. A charming Spanish devil, he can generally get anyone to cater to him when he’s being a kind gentleman, but he rarely shows that side of himself.
