| Forum: Index > Sorting > David Eastwood |
A. Please answer the following questions as elaborately as possible. (Remember, this part is only a requirement for your third to fifteenth character! However, if you want to have more input on where you character is sorted, then please answer #6!)
1) What would you consider to be your character's strengths, and your character's weaknesses? Elaborate on your answer.
s: musically-inclined, business-oriented, kind, understanding
s: dependent, too quiet, naive at times
2) What goals and objectives has your character set out in their life? Is it to be successful and rich? Is it to find happiness? Why?
Since David was a young child, he's been groomed to inheriting his family's trading company so he knows no other career path besides that. However, since his family's demise, he's been confused as to what he would want to be when he grows up.
3) What's their ideal way of spending a free day? Why so?
His ideal free day is him brushing up his musical skills and trying to learn new ones, however that had become limited since he was plucked from the remains of his house and shipped off to his aunt and uncle.
4) If your character could only keep 5 possessions, what would they be? Why?
- His violin — One of his last mementos from his old home and life
- His flute — One of his last mementos from his old home and life
- Tiny ceramic pendant — His last birthday gift from his parents
- Journal — Has all of his parents' teachings
- Family photo — Sentimentality
5) What one thing would your character change about the wizarding society? Why?
If he could, he'd want to lessen the amount of hate, envy and pretty much any negative emotions. It was hate that fueled the people who burned down his home and killed his parents.
6) What house does your character want to be in? What house does your character not want to be in? Why?

1) Give a description of your character's personality. Are you noble or sneaky? Arrogant or Humble? Anything about your character that might help the Sorting Hat decide. (Don't worry, you can copy this onto your character page later!) (Remember, personality must be at least one paragraph long for the first two characters, two paragraphs long for the third to eighth characters, and three paragraphs long for the ninth to fifteenth!)
david oozes purity and naivety, a childlike glow around him. growing up, he was surrounded by people who adore him, who love him to the moon and back, so he's used to affection, especially tactile affection. he loves being hugged, cuddled and patted on the head and would usually do the same to people he loves. he's a cuddlebug who can't go to sleep without hugging something, whether it be a person or a plushie.
don't be fooled by this though. despite acting his age, david knows the ins and outs of business. he knows how to negotiate and how to be two, three steps ahead. he's been taught everything about business and negotiations since he was able to walk and talk, being groomed to inherit the family business. he doesn't particularly enjoy it but he just so happens to be good at it so he doesn't really mind.
since his family is focused on ceramics and fine china, david is a tiny index of ceramic trivia and just so happens to know pottery. he can identify the fakes from the genuine, tell who made it and when, and tell where it came from. it's a surprise as to how this tiny child is able to memorise so many facts and figures. this is because his best memories came from when his parents were teaching him about everything he needs to know.
besides being a ceramics expert and cuddlebug, david is also musically talented, being able to play 6 instruments with amazing expertise on the flute and the violin. he is more inclined towards classical instruments but is never one to shy away from trying new things. he can read notes like one would easily read a book and has been known to compose some pieces on his free time.
2) Write about the history of your character. How did they grow up? Is there an incident that made them the way they are? etc. (Again, you can copy this onto your character page later!) (Remember, history must at least be two paragraphs long for the first two characters, three paragraphs long for the third to eighth character, and four paragraphs long for the ninth to fifteenth character!)
adrianne bennett, pureblood heir to a giant jewelry making company, and jorge eastwood, halfblood heir to an even bigger ceramics importer company, were a perfectly arranged couple, having been engaged since they were 5 and 7 respectively. they're the classic childhood best friend romance, except for the fact that adrianne had jorge wrapped around her finger and she was the sole reason why jorge ever accepted his parents' offer of having him take over the company. jorge had promised adrianne the best and adrianne promised to make him the best. they were the perfect pair, adrianne is able to control jorge's highly lazy side and jorge was able to make adrianne break out of her icy shell.
david eastwood was conceived ten months before adrianne and jorge wed. the pair didn't have any regrets and their wedding was doubled as david's christening (they were a weird couple but they worked). they loved their son dearly and had everything for his future planned out. their jobs never hindered them from spending time with david and during the rare times when they worked overseas, they made sure to leave someone they trust with david. they doted on their son a lot.
adrianne and jorge saw david's potentials and worked on improving them. they nurtured david's talents and encouraged him to follow them. more often than not, david was found in either his parents' office or their magmificent music room. not only did they teach him about music and business, they also taught him about magic especially when he had his first outburst trying to retrieve his flute from its shelf. in short, david had a perfectly idyllic childhood.
everything changed when their house was set ablaze when david was off in his music class. david didn't understand why people wanted to destroy his home and kill his parents, but it was done. his mommy and daddy were gone, and he was sent off to his cold aunt and uncle, who were more focused on grooming him to be a leader than letting him have his childhood. he misses his mommy and daddy.
3) Write about your character's appearance. What do they look like? Are you planning on using a certain model for your character? If you already have a picture in mind, you can put it here!
Daniel Hyunoo Lachapelle
4) Is your character a Pure-Blood, Half-Blood or Muggle-Born? Do you have any notable magical relations? (Remember, you cannot be related to important Harry Potter characters!)
halfblood
5) Does your character have any special magical abilities? Or special abilities in general (photographic memory, etc.)? Is he or she of a different magical race, such as Veela, Vampire, Werewolf or the like? Part or half of that magical race counts! (Remember, you cannot have a character with special abilities/of a different magical race as one of your first two characters!)
nope
6) What year is your character in?
firstie
C. These do not affect what house you're sorted to, but everybody must answer them!
1) Is this your first character?
- A. This is my first character.
- B. No, this is not my first character.
2) If your answer to the previous question is B, how many characters do you have? How many of them are "exotic" (of a different magical race/have a special ability)?
9/2

Should we just search romantic comedies on Netflix and see what we find? 07:34, May 20, 2017 (UTC)
