Hair: Dark hair, and when wet or gelled it can be curly, but he also likes it straight
Eye colour: Blue
Skin: Caucasian
General Appearance: Elliot is not one for appearances, though he usually looks nice. He dresses in suits usually, styled like suits from the 1920s in America, but he is not one to obsess over clothes.
He has dark eyes and a very straight nose. He usually has a light shadow of a beard and mustache, but it is always kept well-groomed, and his eyebrows are very expressive. All of this offset by his light blue eyes which add a sensitiveness to his otherwise brisk appearance.
P E R S O N A L I T YSkills:
Dueling- He was always good with wandwork, especially DADA and Charms and so he is very adept at his wand work.
- Perceptive- Always one for observing, Elliot can usually tell when someone is lying or not, and whether or not they are upset by something.
- Music- Elliot can play both the piano and guitar, and has done so ever since he was young. He does not prefer guitar, though very little know he can play piano.
Weaknesses:
- Emotions- Being very perceptive to other's emotions keeps Elliot very emotional himself, and yet he does not show it. Some have called him a robot, because unless you know him, you would not know he had any outlet.
- Solitude- Elliot keeps to himself and does not usually draw attention to himself in his actions, though he has an eccentricy that always surrounds him. Unfortunately, this makes him seem like a jerk when people meet him and he does not speak to them...
- Gambler- When Elliot is depressed, he gambles. He takes his money to the nearest place that they have card tables and he loses it all.
Likes: - Friends- The few friends and family he has, Elliot likes to keep close. He has a small ring of family he tolerates and an even smaller ring of people he considers more than acquaintances, and he enjoys their company.
- Art- You would not expect it out of such a blank character, but Elliot enjoys all art forms. Musical, especially, calls to him and can put him on the right track. He also has an eye for paintings and the sort and is very perceptive about theatre and film.
- Intellectual Pursuits- Elliot loves to read, play chess, and do anything that expands the mind.
Dislikes: - Evil- Though an outsider to Elliot's life may not see it, Elliot has a strong moral code that is outright against the Death Eaters and general terribleness. He does not like to see people hurt each other and it kills him inside to see people in pain.
- Heights- Elliot likes his feet planted firmly on the ground and he hates to e anywhere high up. It makes him sick to his stomach and get dizzy.
- Ignorant People- He does not like people who are oblivious to the things that are happening in the world and people who do not see the sort of terrible consequences their actions carry.
Motto: "I am what I am, but I'm not what you see."
General Personality: Elliot may come off as rude or somewhat closed off, and in ways that is true. He will not pay you any attention unless need be and he will not open up, but it is not because he does not like you, but because there is no practical need for it. He understands that from relationships comes pain, and he has had enough.
He may seem like someone who refuses to trust, but that's only because the people he does trust are few in number, and yet he has left his life in their hands. He comes off mysterious and deep, but really he is very normal. He has a soft, gentle demeanor that is lost in the methodicalness of the way he lives his life.
H I S T O R YFamily Information: Darrell Cartwright- foster father
Nancy Cartwright- foster mother
Chip Martin- father
Astella Fitzpatrick- mother (deceased)
Jack Dyllan- cousin
Childhood: Elliot was the love child to Chip Martin and Astella Fitzpatrick. Astella, a witch, left Chip after a short-lived, yet very passionate, summer romance in France and returned home to London pregnant. She did not contact Chip and soon after had Elliot. When he was three years old, she died of cancer and Elliot was shipped off to foster care. He continued in that until he was accepted into Hogwarts. Soon after, he was sent a generous amount of wealth from some man claiming to be his birth father. At the age of eleven, Elliot began to live on his own, aided by the help of the mysterious father figure. He met his father when he was sixteen, and was shocked to discover he also had cousins. His youngest cousin, Jack Dyllan, hit it off with him and they became very close. Though Chip always offered, Elliot declined living with his father, preferring living in the Leaky Cauldron, and eventually, his own apartment.
Hogwarts: Hogwarts was not the best experience for Eliot. He loved his studies, and his seventh year was much nicer with the addition of his cousin as a first year. However, Elliot remained on the lower portion of the radar, as he was passed over for more popular and outgoing students. Though one of the brightest students of his year, he was always outshined, though you would not find him complaining.
Adulthood: Elliot can be described as a dreamer and a wanderer. He does not have many plans in life, though is thinking of co-running Weasley's Wizard Wheezes with his cousin. Besides that, he is quite happy with living his life by doing odd jobs when needed and trying to find music gigs to pay the bills. He does not have ambitions, nor does he have high hopes. He drifts through his life, trying to find peace and happiness.
Short Roleplay: Don't have too. xP
