Gender: Male
Year: First
House: Slytherin
Blood Status: Pure Blood
Birthday: March 6
Wand: Dogwood, 12 inches with a dragon core
Wand Hand: Right
Likes: Pumpkin juice, chocolate, purebloods, Quidditch, pranks, strawberries, books

Habits:
Scratching his neck: If something makes him nervous, this is his tell. He will automatically reach for the skin on the back of his neck and sometimes ends up scratching it raw.
Tapping his fingers: If he gets anxious or bored in class he will start tapping his fingers in random rhythms against his desk, book, or whatever is in front of him.
Hobbies:
Reading: Unless someone is close to him or in the same common room, no one would know how much Rory loves to read. He will devour his textbooks and any work of fiction he can find. His favorite genres are science fiction and fantasy. So far his favorite work is Lord of the Rings.
Exercise: When he has free time, he makes sure he gets outside and goes for a run. Sometimes he'll be gone most of the day and gets back just before dark, covered in sweat. It helps to calm his temper as well as stay fit.

Personality:
Rory comes from a pureblood wizard family and thus has been raised to look down on muggles and half-bloods. He thinks highly of himself and regards himself better than others because of his blood status. His loyalty is to his house and his house alone. He looks up to the character of Draco in the books though he also thinks the boy was a pansy.
His two worst traits are his strong temper; when he’s angered he will typically be the first one to throw a punch at someone's face. He will not back down as long as he believes he is right. His worst weapon his is tongue, spouting sarcasm and harsh words at whoever gets on his bad side (or a Gryffindor). His tongue is also what he relies on to attempt to keep him out of trouble. He is a manipulator of words and uses it to attempt to get his way. It typically works on some of his peers but not so much on the instructors. Getting in his way is one sure fire way of getting him angry and causing him to shove the other person out of the way. Another is to attempt to claim he shouldn’t be there or doubting his skills with magic. Though magic doesn’t come easy for him (especially proper wording of the spells), he works hard to cover up his fault and master his studies the best that he can.
Anyone he somehow manages to make friends with (mostly Ravenclaws) needs to watch out for he can change his mind on them at any time. However those in his house (or other purebloods) hardly ever encounter Rory’s wrath. To those students, he is loyal and will stand up to whoever tries to mess with them in any way.
Those in Rory’s house are the only ones that see his patience and kindness. When another student needs help working on a new spell or new potion, he will take the time out to help them understand and be able to execute it properly once he has worked it out for himself. Whether he does it because it means his house gets points or out of the goodness of his heart is a whole other matter. His kindness to the other students could also be seen as a way to gain strength for himself as he works with his classmates.

Family:
Mother: Annabeth Scott [Gryffindor] [pureblood] born and raised in London, she met her ex-husband during her time at Hogwarts. No one would get her to listen when they told her her husband was trouble. They ended up divorcing a year before Rory got his Hogwarts letter.
Step-mother: Rebecca Scott [Slytherin] [pureblood]. She was a year younger than Jacob when they were in school but managed to befriend him. She married Jacob six months after his divorce from Anna.
Father: Jacob Scott [Slytherin] [pureblood] came to Hogwarts from South Wales, moved to London after his time at Hogwarts where he met his ex-wife. After a messy divorce, he managed to get full custody of his only son. To this day Annabeth's family is convinced he paid off the judges of the case.
Siblings: None yet but Rebecca is pregnant with her and Jacob's first child together, another son for Jacob. Rory's not too sure how he feels about having a baby brother. He's convinced that his dad will favor the baby over him.
Extended Family: Grandfather Acanthus Scott [Slytherin] [pureblood] came to Hogwarts as a boy where he met his wife who was also a Slytherin. Rory's attitude towards half-bloods, Gryffindors, and muggles comes from everything he's heard come out of his grandfather's mouth about them. After all, if Grandpa hates them, something must be wrong with them.
Cousin: Alexander ‘Xander’ Scott [Slytherin][pureblood] is Rory’s accident prone younger cousin and Rory’s best friend outside of Hogwarts. Since he is slightly older than him, he treats Xander like the brother he never had. The summer before Rory came to Hogwarts was the worst summer of his life when he thought he had lost his pseudo-brother to the boy’s allergies. Between this and the time Xander got lost in the forest, Rory has become extremely over protective of his baby cousin. Since Xander is still young and growing (and really the only friend Rory has back at home) his father won't limit his son's contact with the younger boy.
Aunt: Stephanie Scott [Slytherin][pureblood] is Rory’s aunt, Xander’s mother, wife of Edward, and sister-in-law of Jacob. Though Rory adores her son, he has never interacted with her too much due to his father’s influence.
Uncle: Edward Scott [Hufflepuff][pureblood] is Rory’s uncle, Xander’s father, younger brother of Jacob, and youngest son of Acanthus. Rory has had a little more interaction with his uncle but still not too much due to his father.
Relationship with Family: Since the divorce and the brutal custody battle, Rory has barely heard from his mother. The last time he had heard from her had been when he received his Hogwarts letter. Rory is very close to his father, who he looks up to, as well as his paternal grandfather. He hates that his step-mother tries to steal his father's attention away from him in anyway possible. Mail comes regularly from both of the men to find out how Rory is doing in his studies and how his house is doing in the ranking.

General History:
Rory was born to pureblood parents in their London home. When he was born his father allowed his grandfather to choose what he would be named. His grandfather came up with the name Roranicus and, despite his mother's protests, that is what he was named. As he grew his mother gave him the nickname Rory which he has gone by ever since. The only time he ever heard his full name was when he would get into trouble which started to come more and more frequently once he hit his ‘terrible twos’.
Two years ago his parents’ marriage started to fall apart, leaving Rory caught in the middle of the disaster. A year after the verbal fights started they filed for divorce which led to an ugly custody between his mother and father. His mother fought hard to keep him but somehow the judge ruled in favor of Rory’s father, citing that Jacob had the strong role in his child’s upbringing. Rory was then forced to move with his father to a house out in the country side that his father had built for them.
Three months after his parents’ divorce was final, Rory’s father moved his new girlfriend into the house with them and married her another few months later. As his father’s attention went to his new wife, Rory started to act out. There were reports of eggings to their muggle neighbors’ houses, toilet paper covering their trees, and muggle forms of transportation being covering is various items such as silly string, glitter, and soap.
When his father heard the reports, he investigated his son’s bedroom to find many of the items there. He confronted Rory about it and started to set time aside for the two of them to have father-son time away from Rebecca. For the next few months the reports about various pranks stopped coming. On the day Rory got his Hogwarts letter he got the very first letter from his mother in a year congratulating him and wishing him the best at the school. That night Rory, Jacob, and Rebecca went out to dinner to celebrate the boy’s birthday and acceptance into the school. During what should have been a night of celebration in Rory’s honor, the celebration changed when Rebecca told the two that she was pregnant with Jacob’s child.
Once again Jacob’s attention shifted away from his eldest child to his wife. For the next few weeks Rory ignored his father for the first time in his life. It wasn’t until the day Rory left for Hogwarts that Jacob turned his attention back to Rory and passed down his wand that he had during his time at Hogwarts.
The Sorting:
The sorting was a strange experience for Rory. He remembered vaguely that his mother had been a Gryffindor but his father and grandfather had both been proud to be Slytherins. The only house he was sure he wouldn’t be placed in was Ravenclaw. He didn’t want to know how his father would react if he made it into Hufflepuff. If he paid attention to the letter he’d send after this was over; if Rebecca hadn’t gotten her claws in him again. Anyway he would have a lot to live up to; big footprints to fill in his time here.
When his name got called, he walked up to the Sorting Hat with his head held high. Despite his nerves for what he would be placed, the second the hat was placed on his head, he heard the loud voice shout “SLYTHERIN!” He smirked as he walked away and headed to the table that belonged to his new house.

Extra Info:
Boggart: Rory's boggart would be his step-mother. He is scared to death that her baby and her will take his place in his father's life; that because of her he will go from being his father's first priority to being his last.
Mirror of Erised: Despite his nature, when Rory looks into the Mirror of Erised, he sees his family together again without his step-mother. His mom stands on one side while his father is next to him, smirking proudly.
Patronus: Rory's patronus is a fish coming from his memory of going fishing with his father before Jacob remarried.
Greatest Treasure: His greatest treasure is the wand his father gave him the day he left for school.
Manner of Dress: When he's not in his school uniform, he's in jeans and a t-shirt. When it's cold, he wears a sweatshirt.
Favorite Class: Mythical Creatures. Not that he will let anyone know, but he loves working with the creatures and learning how to care for them. He also loves the stories that are attached to each beast.
Worst Class: Potions. Not only does he struggle to remember the proper enunciation for words for spells, he also struggles to remember the proper ingredients for potions. He works hard to overcome the issue but potions will never be the class he prefers.
