Hi, my name is Xenos da Vinci, no middle name sorry. (pronounced Zen-ohs)But I mostly go by Xen is about the only nickname I am aware of/I'm a a gentlemanI'm Twenty Eight years old.My birthday is December Fourteenth, Nineteen Ninety EightI work in Formerly I was an Auror and briefly taught at Hogwarts. I have left that behind as I've been with my family and traveling. Recently I have come into ownership of (will add shop when accepted) (applying on acceptance of updated profiles.) My dream job is As stereotypical as this might sound I am quite content in my job as a father. My blood status is Pureblood if you must know. The da Vinci's have been around for many centuries though I belong to the English branch. My great grandfather was of the main Italian line.The house I was in was Ravenclaw, no surprise thereI was in the class of Twenty SixteenI'm interested in both to be honest. Neither side is more appealing then the other to me though.I'm currently with Dante PrinceI may seem cool, calculating, and formal but I'm really hat and more. I have always been a bit of gentleman and plan to stay that way. To get me angry takes a lot and I can think of only one instance in my life when I was truly mad. Can I be irritated? Yes. Annoyed? Frustrated? Yes, of course but anger does not come quickly to me. I have my own way of doing things and if I believe the ends are worth it I will do it. I have a protective streak and do not take people messing with my loved ones well. Most of the time I am a very logical person but that does not hide my creative streak. When around those I love you see my playful side, it comes out a lot around my twin, and I relax far more then I normally do. Embarrassment has never come easily to me though my family does know the right notes to hit in order to see me turn colors. My patience feels like it might be endless but I have discovered since having Melody I tolerate far more then I did before. There is a massively romantic side to me, or so I have been told. I enjoy spoiling my partner what can I say?My background story isnot that important, but here I go. My father is Chance da Vinci, Head of the Hit Wizarding Office....well former head now. A long time Hit Wizard he is renown for putting many a dark wizard away. Our family is a very old wizarding family that started in Italy but a couple of centuries ago moved to England. Legend has it we're related to the famous Leonardo da Vinci but I'm not telling a bit on that, I think my father just likes the looks on peoples faces when he says that. My mother is a pure blood and very proud of it. Her name is Rosilia and she is an amazing Oblivitor. I lived in the outskirts of London in our old family mansion. I am actually a twin but no one realizes we are. Then again I am an Albino. My grandmother makes me a special potion that I drink that keeps me from frying and gives me some pigment in my skin, nowadays though I make it myself nasty thing. When I was eight though I lost my twin, or so I thought. An enemy of my father's...or something kidnapped him and faked his death. For years I didn't know he was alive till we met again at the end of my fourth year.
School was an amazing experience for me. I met my closest and dearest friend, Yuan, my first year there. There was a girl I was close to back then as well but I never did learn what happened to her. I was captain of the Ravenclaw quidditch team and I'm not a bad keeper. My third year is when I found my familiar, Rhys and he is rarely away from me. Sure he's no owl but I wouldn't trade my eagle for anything. Fourth year I began my studies to become an animangus and as stated before reunited with my brother. I got to spend the summer at St. Mungo's after that...long story I'd rather not go into it right now. I also started dating Dante that year. Dante is an amazing young man, I met him during my second year and he has kept me entranced since then. I was more then pleased to call him mine. I also registered at the Ministry that year as a certified Animangus. Fifth year came with new responsibilities as I made Prefect. My final year was hard for me and not just because I made Head Boy. Knowing I was going to be leaving Dante wasn't easy but I knew that I could get a start on building a career so maybe...just maybe we could have a life together.
Things were rough between Dante and I the year he graduated. We separated for about two years and during that time I did something stupid but I wouldn't change it. Getting drunk and sleeping with a stranger isn't wise but my lovely little girl made it worth it. Her mother....isn't around anymore but Melody doesn't seem to be bothered by it. Her pearly grey hair and vibrant eyes so like her Dante-papa...She is how I got through those years and made peace with Dante. It was rather funny to know that he himself had a son, a little albino blind form birth. I"m not a vocal believer in signs, but seeing Melody and Benjamin together I felt like it was Fate telling us to just stop being silly. Recently I inherited the family mansion as my parents decided they wanted a quieter life out at the summer home in Godric's Hallow. Melody loves it here and I'm glad to see my baby girl getting so used to everything. Now if we can keep Ben away from the stairs things would be good. Currently I'm trying to purchase a shop in hopes of having a job a little closer to home. It is easier to kick people out and close it up in the case of an emergency then to get out of the school after all. I enjoy

Wandless Magic Practice Class ~ O Oh yes, there's something else I need to tell you!
My love for reading spell books has given me quite the mental library to rely on. I am well practiced in what I know as well. Without practice one cannot hope to actually fight properly. I'm trained in both wand magic and wandless, silent casting is pretty interesting as well. I spend a lot of time exercising as I do not see a point in relying on magic for everything. No better way to surprise an enemy when you physically attack them instead of with a spell. Due to this I have a decent physic though Dante would argue the description. I guess I should tell you too that without my glasses I'm completely blind.
A note on my animangus form, I turn into an albino eagle. My eyes remain red and around them is a dusty gray design of my glasses. Oh and I am the proud owner of a large figure eight shaped scar on my chest. It also was a large slash that goes from my left shoulder to right hip. That was a fun experience.

Hi, my name is Xerxes da Vinci But I mostly go by XX but not much else I'm a Guy thanksI'm Twenty Eight years old. My birthday is December Fourteenth Nineteen Ninety EightI work in I was an assistant Librarian at Hogwarts but I had some trouble being there. I'm currently looking for work. My dream job is
not really sure. Can't do anything really as I have no grades My blood status is Pure blood loves. Ask Xenos for the family history on that.The house I was in was none. I never went to Hogwarts. Xenos seems to think I would have been Slytherin thoughI was in the class of Should have graduated with my brother I'm interested in Girls for the most part I'm currently with No oneI may seem coy, cruel and a flirt but I'm really playful, teasing and stubborn. I tend to worry more then people think but do my best not to show it. I have a short temper and tend to react very violently when pressed. I am VERY protective of those I care for and don't take harm towards them lightly. In my heart I believe that what goes around comes around. You mess with me and you better be prepared. Despite that though I am not always so rough. I am mischievous and love to test my cunning against my brother's wit. You should see us in action some time. My background story isa bit of a tale. A long time ago when I was little I had a twin. My brother and I were very close. We used to go playing in the forest around our home. I used to steal his glasses a lot which was fun because without them he's totally blind. I don't remember how it happened, but one day he wasn't there. My father couldn't explain it easily to me when I was young. We moved to Finland when I was 9, and after father got his job here I finally found out what happened. My brother was kidnapped. It crushed me. I knew something was wrong all those years. When I was eleven my father started home school me. He told me ages ago that I was born in England. But he refused to let me go to Hogwarts. Not that I minded, I like spending time with him. Well at least that's what I thought was going on. In fact the man I thought was my father was really my kidnapper. My real father, Chance, had made this man an enemy when he was younger. To get revenge he had tried to kidnap me and my twin but he only got his hands on me. I re met Xenos at the end of last school year, his fourth year. Through him we discovered the truth.
Marcos, the man I thought to be my father, tried to kill us and almost killed Xenos. I feel horrible that was able to do nothing. If Dante hadn't been there we'd be dead. Over the summer I was reintroduced to my family and with the help of some amazing wizards we've been undoing the spells Marcos cast on me. I have enjoyed getting to know my real father and to finally know my mother. Xenos writes me every day and I spend a lot of my time reading through the journal of letters he had wrote me since I disappeared. Over the years I studied Xenos' text books and learned magic from my real father. I was never permitted to go into a real school though my mother is certain I would have been Slytherin. I don't care to be honest. When my brother graduated so technically did I. My father tested my knowledge and was more then satisfied with how I had learned over the years. First act as a graduate? Move out of course. I bought an apartment above a jewelry shop in Knockturn ally. There I spent time with my then girlfriend, Tamara Radcliffe, until we split on even terms. Interesting girl that one.
The year I turned 18 things changed again. Xenos was alone and no longer with Dante. I had never seen my twin in such a state. I did not like it. Xenos moved in with me that night and I hardly left him alone. Slowly he came back to me mentally and when he came home one day with Melody in his arms my life changed again. No more sleep for either of us. She settled well into this bachelor pad and believe me I still laugh seeing her toys strewn about. Xenos and Dante eventually got back together and the trio have remained here for a long time. They moved into the family home and Xenos tells me often my room is still mine. I'm content to do things out here on my own but he's been stubborn. Don't let him deny it. For now I just keep moving at my own pace for I am in no rushI enjoy
- Reading
- Plotting with my brother
- Snow
- Rainy days
- Making my family proud
- Blackberries
- My niece and nephew I despise
- Being stuck at home without Xenos
- People who mock me for not being in school

- Strawberries I'm afraid of
- Something happening to the kids
- Losing Xenos again
- Not being strong enough My strengths are

- Physical fighting, I got into learning it years ago.
My flaws are
- My temper, I've been known to throw tables across a room or jinx you to St. Mungos if you set me off
- Trusting new people, outside of my family I have a very hard time trusting. Call that a repercussion of being kidnapped and mental messed with for years but if their names aren't Chance, Rosilia, Xenos, Melody or Ben I am careful. I don't even fully trust Dante anymore. I look like

Hi, my name is Melody Prince da Vinci But I mostly go by Mel to some, Uncle Xercxes calls me Mels and Papi calls me bunnyI'm a young ladyI'm Eleven years old. My birthday is February Fourth Twenty Seventeen My dream job is Not sure really, I just want to go to school right now My blood status is Pure blood from what Papi told meThe school I will be going to is Hogwarts!I'm interested in boys probably not really sure. I keep telling Lior he's my future husband and he just laughsI'm currently with I told you I'm going to marry Lior....ok probably not but it's still fun to tease him People say that, in a nutshell, I'm a thoughtful young lady. I am always planning my next step and am a very curious person. I enjoy understand how things work and why people do what they do. Not entirely to use it to my advantage but it is a plus. I tend to speak what is on my mind and do not mind if I tread on toes by doing so. Papi says that keeping to my beliefs is something very important and I agree. I can be mischievous like my uncle though and rather enjoy pulling jokes on my family and friends. I am a proper young lady, minding my manners at most times and doing what I can to make my family proud. I don't like being in trouble and hate it when I mess up. I guess I'm a bit of a perfectionist. Lior and Ben bring out my sense of adventure and willingness to do what I need to get where I want. I love those boys and would do anything for them. Lately I've been finding my attention drawn to learning. Old myths and spell books have caught my love. I'm finding it interesting to learn just like Papi always did, though I doubt I'll ever be as smart as him.My background story is a bit of a drama sadly. You see I was born thanks to my Papi's one night stand with my mother. The two weren't in love and I am willing to bet she took advantage of him. He was left with me during a time that things weren't going very well for the da Vinci heir but that was because I wasn't there. For the first few years of my life it was just me, Papi and my Uncle not that I minded. I was about two when Papa came back into Papi's life and joined us with my baby brother Ben. Things were nice in Uncle Xerxes apartment. There was always games and so much laughter. It was when I turned about four that my Papi inherited the house we live in now and Grandpa moved to a town called Godric's Hollow. I'm not really sure about having all this space but I love the garden out back. Papi said I"m not to go into the woods alone, and find it silly or not I listen. He isn't the kind of man who has forbidden me from much. If I have questions he answers to the best of his ability in a way that makes sense to me. Those woods though he said I had to wait till I was older to understand and I am. For now I spend my days exploring our home, playing with Lior and Ben, and preparing to go to school. I'm trying to talk my fathers into a pet before then but I'm not having much luck. Though my days of childish wander are about to be over. It's almost time start school and I cannot wait! I hope to have as many adventures as my father's did and who knows maybe I'll find the love of my life too? Until then I just want to do them proud.I enjoy
- Dressing up
- Going to work with either of my fathers
- Spending time with Lior and Ben
- The garden
- Blood red roses
- Sugar Quills....it's Papi's fault I swear
- Exploring new places

SeventeenMy wand is a 9" Ebony with a Griffen Hair core. It has a spiraled shaft and a springy disposition. My pet is an eastern kingsnake! Oh I was so excited to get him! His name is Orpheus and if allowed he will come with me everywhere. My O.W.L. Scores Are:

None yet Oh yes, there's something else I need to tell you! I am a parselmouth. Apparently it is very common on the Italian side of my family. Papi laughed so hard he cried the first time I spoke it. Not sure why though.
