History: Joesoph is a bit of a showboat. Having a father who is a professional magician (Daily shows in Las Vegas) He was always wanting to follow in his father's footsteps. He learned the secrets of sleight of hand and showmanship. He developed a show and was starting to come into his own as a magician. When the wizarding world became known to the muggle world, his father was accused of being a wizard and exploiting people for their money under the guise of a magic act. His father (along with several other magicians in the business) lost their job as with the surfacing of wizards, people were either suspicious of magicians or were unimpressed when compared to wizards who performed real magic.
His father, after basically losing his job to the appearance of the wizarding world, was angry and decided to retire. Sick of everything going on in his small circle, his entire family decided to move to Monte Carlo, which is basically the Las Vegas of the UK. His father decided he didn't want Joesoph to waste his talents so he decided he would do everything he could get him into Hogwarts to learn from the magical professors and become a wizard. Since the wizarding world was new to muggles, there was a common misconception with a lot of the muggles around the area that every child sent to Hogwarts would learn to be a Witch or Wizard. Joesoph believed this as well and was really excited to attend Hogwarts to learn how to do spells, fly on brooms, get his first magic wand, and everything else he only learned to pretend to do. He wanted the real power. Joesoph could only imagine soaring around in the air playing quidditch. He happily left his family, friends, popularity, and comfortable Las Vegas to persue the magical existence that would be a Hogwarts education.
Upon his first year of being at Hogwarts, Joe learned quick that the magical arts were only for people with magical blood. This disappointment landed him being depressed but he quickly found his way out of it when he started to make friends and potential love interests at Hogwarts. The year was full of drama however when he was cornered by a couple purists and turned into a bug. Finally being found, Joe found that he had no memory and felt all alone at Hogwarts university. His memory started returning during that summer where he made up with the friends he had wronged and started a relationship with @charlotte, who is currently his girlfriend going into the fifth year at Hogwarts where he was named Prefect

RP Example:
Joesoph was anxiously packing his bags. He knew Hogwarts was his shot. He has always performed on stage as a magician, but this was his chance. His dad has talked for the last year (after he retired from his job) about the magical world. Nobody was impressed with a levitating woman when you have a wizard flying around overhead on brooms. The family trade became outdated in a years time.
This, however, was his chance at greatness. No longer would he just be doing sleight of hand tricks. No longer would he be pulling rabbits out of hats. No longer would he be performing at birthday parties. It was his time to take it to the next step. Hogwarts would be where he would learn how to perform REAL magic. There were talks amongst everyone about what happens at Hogwarts. Students making potions that turn them into other people. Using magic wands to do incredible feats. He could see it now.
Joeseph closed his suitcase and sighed deeply, he was ready.....
