Accepted! Welcome to Hogwarts: The New Ages
Full Character Name: Terrance James Adams
D.o.B./Age: October 5, 2008 /20
Place of Residency: London
Blood Status: Pureblood
History: Brought up in Islington in London, you could say Terrance had a proper upbringing by his mother and father. Terrance was the first born to Julia and Terrance Adams and his mother dotted on him since the day he was born. But things changed when Jonathan arrived and not long after that Fiona came along, meaning that Terrance had two pests to annoy him, and of course get him blamed for everything that seemed to go wrong, like when his mothers good crystal vase got broken by Jonathan on his toy broom, he had got blamed for causing the mess.
As he aged Terrance learned that the more time he spent outside the longer he had to himself away from his siblings. Learning more about the outside more and more, Terrance began picking up the names of different plants and learning the names of animals as well developing a knack for building things with his hands something his father hated and never really understood. He also took up running, mainly because he had to run away so his brother and sister wouldn’t catch up with him.
With his parent’s sudden divorce when Terrance was ten, Terrance along with his brother and sister were shipped between houses for holidays and weekends. Deeply troubled by this, Terrance learned to shut out his feelings and kept everything to himself, as well as interacting with people. This is where problems began for Terrance, witnessing many arguments and having drilled in to his head that it was ok to act that way, Terrance picked up his father’s manner of approaching things.
Terrance got his letter when he was eleven, and was thrilled with the idea of attending school. He attended Hogwarts, and was sorted in to Slytherin, Just like his father and mother. He didn’t fit in much due to the fact his father held a high position at work and many of the boys in his year felt it as threat, excludeing him from things and often teaseing him about his nose. As he got older and started his third year, Terrance learned that duelling your way through problems worked and often found himself in trouble because of this. As well as duelling, Terrance found that his aggressive bullying approach to things and back chatting made him feel more important, he learned that sticking up for himself as well as causing people harm worked and meant that he could be left alone for most of the time.

Personality Description: Terrance is an arrogant guy, and like every typical Slytherin he thinks fully of himself a lot.

He is very outspoken and when he is not hiding away draws a lot of attention to himself by answering back and causing conflict. Due to his troubled childhood Terrance has people issues. It takes him a while to trust people but deep, deep down he is an ok guy. Terrance has anger issues and holds in his emotions a lot when he does become angry then he tends to lash out.

Terrance tends to hold grudges on people, especially if they have ever done something to him in the past. He hates getting caught off guard about anything and doesn’t find it a very nice thing. He is also a bit of a player when it comes to girls and has been known to have dated and used a lot of girls.

RP Example:
The sun was just starting to appear from behind the castle, the weather was mild with a slight crisp in the air but it was bearable to be out in shorts and a t-shirt, not like the weather mattered. As long as he had a reason (which he always did) Terrance Adams could always be found running around the grounds of the castle in just shorts and a t-shirt no matter what weather. Cold as it sounded Terrance was well used to it by now; he wasn’t sure if he even owned a warm jumper of any sort not like he would wear it anyway, anything made of wool made him look like an oversized Christmas ornament.
Slowing down and stopping next to one of the many trees by the lake, Terrance sat down slowly, breathing I’m through his nose and then out through his mouth. His run had been particularly good this morning, after running through part of the forest and managing not to meet anyone or anything in it, he had a pretty clear head to not worry about anything. Looking out at the lake, Terrance sat in silence, not like he had anyone to talk to anyways.
Closing his eyes, Terrance cleared his mind. This was the only time he could be himself, this was the one time he could relax and not have to worry about anything. Breakfast would be starting soon and he would need to make an appearance at his table at some point, not that anyone would notice him, or if they did they would probably move away in fear. Slowly standing up and sighing, Terrance made his way back towards the castle.
