Sterling Silver: 14 y/o, 4th year
++ Dark gray eyes, loose, dirty-blonde hair. Short and thin--(scrawny, runt) His right eye is squinted a little more than his left because of a Quidditch accident that occurred when he was 7 and trying to play beater with his older siblings.
++ Sterling is generally very studious, and sometimes too much so. He tends to be aggravated, irritable and distant when he is immersed in his studies. He is terrible at transfiguration, although he's okay at conjuring. Usually achieves an Acceptable on examinations. Charms is his best practical subject, which he studies most fervently for hours on end, using the Hover Charm non-verbally upon boredom. Yes, he is able to do non-verbal spells 2 years early, but only in the spells he's best at. He usually achieves Outstanding upon charms examinations. He usually Exceeds Expectations in DADA, and can win duels occasionally because he can nonverbally produce a powerful Shield Charm, but is inadept at most hexes and jinxes. He enjoys brewing complex potions in his spare time. He has attempted Felix Felicis 7 times and succeeded once--he keeps a store of 48 hours worth of it in his trunk. His best subject is Ancient Runes, because it requires no practice, and is purely bookwork and memorization.
++ He's generally a bad Quidditch player. He's a decent Keeper and Chaser, but very clumsy and therefore a bad beater. He pigheadedly refuses to wear glasses despite horrendous eyesight which makes it difficult for him to spot the Snitch. He's never before been on the House Team
++ Sterling is a pure-blood, but both his parents are Muggle Born. He has 3 older sisters and one younger brother--which resulted in him having an abnormally sensitive personality. All 3 of his older sisters are not as studious as he is, but more popular and load better at Quidditch.
PS, I couldn't find a solid template, so I wrote it in paragraph form. I hope this I did this right *crosses fingers*
