CHARACTER HISTORY
------------------------------------------------------------
Early Years: Before he was 11, Apollo used to get into a lot of fights with his parents. From a young age he had doubted the existence of God, and after voicing this opinion when he was seven, his parents yelled at him a lot and put his little sister before him. His little sister would then take advantage of the favouritism and bully Apollo a lot without ever getting into trouble. Apollo would get very upset about this, triggering the underage magic. He had been taken to two therapists and had been blessed in church at least seven times to be 'rid of the demons inside'. When his Hogwarts letter came, all of his family was disgusted from 'Satanic Witchcraft', but his uncle understood and helped Apollo get all of his equipment. Whenever Apollo would feel scared or angry or hurt, he would run away to his uncle's house.
Hogwarts Years: At Hogwarts, after being Sorted into Ravenclaw, he felt more welcome because he had finally met people that he could relate with, but due to his shy nature he didn't have many friends. He spent most of his time reading the books and writing essays, which he actually enjoyed doing. By Second Year, he figured out that he was gay when two Fourth Year boys found him after Quidditch to tell him off for hanging around with their little sister, and the only thing he could think about was how great the one on the left looked in his Quidditch uniform.
Not much happened in his life from then until Fourth Year, when his parents stopped accepting him at their house for summer and he would stay at his uncle's house. That was when he found out that his uncle had violent OCD, and it was the first time where he had an episode around Apollo (Apollo had dropped his food onto the floor by accident.)
He passed his OWLS with 5 O's, 3 E's, 1 A and a T (in Divination).
Adulthood: He's coming up to Sixth Year after the summer, so he isn't an adult yet.

RP SAMPLE:
SPOILER:
He popped a Muggle boiled sweet into his mouth, opened his Charms book and sighed. This is the lifeI Apollo thought happily. Watching the sun-kissed leaves on the summer trees whiz by the train, reading about Cheering Charms, not having to worry about his OWLs... He looked up from his book, and right next to his face were two green eyes with slits for pupils.
He screamed, threw his book up into the air and curled up into a ball with his head between his knees. God, cats are terrifying...[/i][/i][/i][/i]
