PERSONALITY: Spike can be good at making friends, showing off his speed reading and flirting with girls....when he wants to that is. He has a horrible habit of being really lazy. He doesn't like to have to do to much. He does have friends though, and when motivated spends time with them. He doesn't like to be around to many people due to his ability to feel what other people are feeling. He's not perfect at his ability, but can only get the feelings out of his head when he is drunk, which is a lot. Other than getting the other peoples feelings out of his head, he tryed to drown the memory of his ex-girlfriend dying out of his head. When he's not being lazy and annoying, he can be a very helpful, loving, caring, kind person that would go out of his way for his friends. He can be brave, but it gets him into trouble a lot, so for the most part he tries to keep from having to do anything brave.

CHARACTER HISTORY
------------------------------------------------------------
Early Years: Spikes parents meet in London. His father a wizard and his mother a muggle. They fell in love and got married. His father didn't tell her he was a wizard till after the wedding. It was a huge surprise for her. Almost left him, till she realized she loved him to much to worry about the magic part. After a couple of years they had Spike. When Spike was 5 his mother was killed by a dark wizard. See Spikes father was a ministry worker and someone was mad at him and tried to kill him. But Spikes mother jumped in front of the spell to save her husband. So Spike grew up with only his father. At age eleven he got his letter for Hogwarts and packed up and left. Not that he didn't love his father, but since his mother died he became unbearable, always being drunk when not at work. So you can imagine he didn't grow up with much money. He bearly had enough money for his stuff for school.
Hogwarts Years: Life at Hogwarts was as normal for him as it could get. He made friends, had girlfriends, and hated most of his classes. Most of all he hated History class, it was always so boring. In his second year he started having really weird feelings. He could tell that they weren't his and they always changed as he walked down the hall. Finally he went to the hospital wing and asked what was wrong with him. What he found out shocked him. The Head Nurse told him that he was an Empath. He was able to feel what other people where feeling. He didn't want the ability and it haunted him for the rest of the year. As the years went by he started getting the hang of ignoring what other people where feeling unless he was able to use it to fall in love with girls. One time he was in the Great Hall for a holiday feast, there where a lot of people. His head started to hurt, he got a ringing in his ears and the emotions he was feeling where to much for him. Finally he passed out. He was carried to the hospital wing. When he woke up he was told that his Empathy ability was becoming to much for him to handle. He was going to have to start spending less time around people. Of course he didn't mind this till he got lonely. During his last year in Hogwarts he fell for a Gryffindor girl named Cindy. He felt like he really loved her and wanted to spend the rest of his life with her.
Adulthood: After school he moved in with his girlfriend, got a job at the local bar (free booze). He thought he had the best life a person could ever have. Then Spike and his girl where walking through the park at night, on their way home from a hard day of work. He remembers being hit in the back of the head with something hard. When he woke up someone was on top of his girlfriend, raping her. He tried to get up but he had been tied down. He watched as the person rapped and then killed his girlfriend. The doctors say he was lucky to be alive, but he didn't see it that way. After trying to kill himself a couple of times and it not working, he started to drink heavily. He lost his job, hasn't gotten another one, and hasn't tried to get with another girl since. How much worse could it get?
