Ability Desired:Occlumens
How your character got this ability:
Godric had wanted to keep the potions he had created out of the wrong hands. Instead of sticking to his curriculum, he had 'borrowed' his uncle's old books and journals from the study with out his permission. He didn't want any one getting there hands on his formulas for his Werewolf poison, or the Werewolf binding potions he had come up with early on in his dark arts studies. He studied relentlessly. Day after day, night after night, just to try to get the hang of OOclumens. Eventually after he started Hogwarts, he was finally able to test it against a seventh year. He had not only been able to keep the older boy out of his mind but had given him a migraine to boot.
Ability Desired:Telekinesis
How your character got this ability: Godric had been wondering how Christy was able to see into the future. It had been bugging him for some time. He went to his mother and asked if she had any idea where the ability had started from. She had smiled sadly at him and told him that there were areas of his training she had never wanted him to learn due to his dark and moody nature. But since he had asked the questions she wasn't going to deny him his birth right. She had him sit down and focus his mind on every thing around him. Feel out where the smallest book was. And imagine that book coming to him. He followed her instructions down to the letter. Sadly at first nothing happened. Then as time after time he tried, small things would happen to the book. After a month of focusing on the tiny book for hours on end, it shifted. He doubled his efforts, and after a few more months had passed he was able to get the book to open to a certain page. More time passed and Godric was about to scream one night at his inability to manipulate the tiny object to his desire. He had told himself that when he got the book to come to him, then he could read what it said inside, and only then would he know his mother's secret. He calmed himself down by taking a drought of peace, focused once more on the book that had been his newest obsession, cleared his head of every thing but the book. Slowly at first but then picking up speed the book came to him. It had taken the better part of a year to even do this much. He opened the book and read only the first line before he understood. "You are as strong as you will yourself to be, with or with out your telekinetic skills my daughter." The name at the bottom of the page was his Grandmother's. As he flipped to the next page using his new found gift, he read his mother's note to him. "May our gift live inside of you, but my our curse lie forever in the grave with you my son, My Godric."
