The Open-Ended Questions


A. Please answer the following questions as elaborately as possible. (Remember, this part is only a requirement for your third to fifteenth character!)


1) What would you consider to be your character's strengths, and your character's weaknesses? Elaborate on your answer.

Max is quite the talker. He never seems to keep his mouth shut, and this could either be beneficial or detrimental to him, depending on the situation. He's sarcastic, he's loud, but he's also quite smart and relies more on his intelligence than brute strength. He's quite friendly, though there may be times when he comes off as irritable to some people.


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?

For now, his only goal is trying to graduate from Hogwarts, although he is an aspiring quidditch player. After school, he's also looking at the possibility of becoming an Auror.


3) What's their ideal way of spending a free day? Why so?

Going around talking to lots of people! Maybe annoy those he doesn't like.


4) If your character could only keep 5 possessions, what would they be? Why?

Wand, writswatch, his plaid button-downs, his journal of everyday thoughts, and Scott, his pet owl. Why? Well, he can't quite live the same life without 'em, I suppose.


5) What one thing would your character change about the wizarding society? Why?

Bad attitude towards Muggles. Let's all look at each other equally, 'kay?


6) What house does your character want to be in? What house does your character not want to be in? Why?

Slytherin! Because deep down, he's really cunning and will do everything to achieve his goals.

The Character's Background


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!)

Max is quite the talker. He never seems to keep his mouth shut, and this could either be beneficial or detrimental to him, depending on the situation. He's sarcastic, he's loud, but he's also quite smart and relies more on his intelligence than brute strength. He's quite friendly, though there may be times when he comes off as irritable to some people. He's cunning, and really self-confident, and will do his best to achieve his goals, no matter how hard the path to it may be.

He's also a thrill seeker, and he wants to always go out on adventures. He's a fun person, if he does say so himself, and most of the time, he's known as the class clown. He likes joking around, though when the situation requires it, he can be quite serious. He is also focused and determined. It is easy to get close to Max, but it may be hard to get yourself unattached because he really is likeable.


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!)

Maksymilian Kowalski was born to two pureblood parents in Warsaw, Poland. He's a single child, so his parents' attention were mostly focused on him. You can tell that they were quite the traditional family because they were very close, and they did lots of things together. His dad is an Auror, which greatly influenced the career path he wanted to take since childhood, and his mother is an ex-Quidditch player who quit to become an ordinary housewife. As a pureblood family, Max has been made aware of the magical world at a very young age, and so his life was pretty much accustomed to all things magic.

Max started attending Hogwarts after he turned 11, and was sorted to "______". He had a lot of friends, and his early years went by smoothly. He does excellent in Transfiguration and Defense Against the Dark Arts, though he also likes Mythology a lot. Care of Magical Creatures is also one of his favorite classes. When he turned 15, he discovered that he might not be as straight as he thought he would be, and he kissed his best friend. He discovered that he is bisexual, thought it ruined his relationship with his best friend forever.

Now, Max is determined to start a new year the usual way he does: Fun-filled. He is looking forward to the new school year, where he's going to actually try out for Quidditch, something he's looked forward to since his early years at Hogwarts, but never actually made it. He's also excited for his new classes, to the new spells his learn. He's also looking forward to developing his Duelling skills more, so perhaps he needs to pay his utmost attention in Defense Against the Dark Arts. Maybe he can go for prefect too, or the year after. He only has two years left, so he'll make sure he's gonna make it all count.


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!

His FC is Dylan O' Brien!

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!)

He is a pureblood wizard.


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?

Sixth Year


OOC Questions


Out of Character Questions (These do not affect which House you'll be sorted into. Everyone must answer!)


1) How much time will you have to participate on this RP site? (This does not affect which House you'll be sorted into).

A) I have a lot of other responsibilities, and although I really want to be a part of this wiki, there may be days on end I won't be able to participate in anything.

B) Although I do have some other responsibilities, and there may be times I'll be absent, I should be able to participate on a weekly basis, around my other schedule.

C) I should be able to participate at least some every day.

D) I have loads of free time, and don't see participation to be a problem at all.


2) Is this your first character?

A) This is my first character.

B) No, this is not my first character.


3) 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)?

This will be my 3rd (or 4th character, the other one is still being sorted).


  • To start off, you aren't allowed to have two characters in sorting at the same time, so keep that in mind for future reference, or one is likely to be denied.
  • Users are discouraged from adding the house the characters were sorted into in their history, given it could be a way of "forcing" a sorter into sorting the character into the desired house. Please, for future reference, don't do that. You will likely get another house. :P
  • You're a paragraph short. This is your third character, so you're required three paragraphs. Five sentences. You have two of five, adding to ten.
    • Things you could add: When was his first magical sign? What was it? What caused it? How did he react to it? How did his parents react to it? Did he have knowledge of the wizarding world before that? If so, how? Who told him? How did his magic affect his everyday life?

Hi! Thanks so much for your feedback and reminders! I'm really sorry, I wasn't aware that it's not allowed to have to characters up in sorting at the same time, my mistake. I'll keep that in mind next time. Also, I already removed any hints of him being a Slytherin in the history (I think), and I think I fixed the length of my paragraphs. That is all! Thanks again, and I apologize. Good day! :))

Slytherin's Crest The Sorting Hat has placed Max Kowalski into Slytherin!


"Or perhaps in Slytherin,
You'll make your real friends,
Those cunning folk use any means,
To achieve their ends."
