Description

Crest_Hufflepuff.gif

This young man has a slender build of someone in their mid teens, that he holds with a warm grace. His thick dark-brown hair is more brushed back in a quick and simple fashion, than any sort of styling. Heavy eyebrows and dark lashes compliment a pair of vivid brown eyes that look over a straight nose that comes to a lightly rounded tip. A handsome angled jaw and boyish round chin compliment a pair of soft lips.

He is dressed in a white button-up shirt with the sleeves rolled up just below the elbows. The shirt is tucked into grey trousers, which hang over broken-in but well cared for leather boots. A gentleman's waistcoat cinches his stomach and chest, in a lighter shade of black. A soft hand-sewn ascot is neatly tied around his neck and tucked into the waistcoat collar, made from a dark blue-dyed cotton. He often wears various hats, caps, and fedoras, and when a hat is not over his coarse hair, one can often be seen stuffed into a pocket of the open-front black robe hanging from his shoulders down to his calves.

Background

The Hawthorne family is an old and proud wizarding family. However, due to an odd family happenstance of having one child, a son almost every generation but a few, the Hawthorne family is not very large. Still, they are proud of their long pure-blood legacy. Jacob Hawthorne caused quite a stir in the family when he started dating Gina Ladonna Matteucci, a young muggle girl from Italy, and after a couple years eventually married her. A little while later they were blessed by having two young boys; Kaleb Daniel Hawthorne, and Dean Oliver Hawthorne five years later.

To Jacob's mother (who considered herself the matriarch of the noble Hawthorne family) continued chagrin, Kaleb never came to show any magical ability as a child, despite continued prodding from his grandmother Hawthorne. Dean however showed signs of his magical talents at a very early age, making a toy soldier march on it's own as soon as he could grasp it in his hands.

Wand

Eleven and three-eighths inches, English oak, supple, with a unicorn hair core.

Pet

Dean's short-eared owl is named Sesat after the Egyptian goddess of learning and writing.

Dean grew up in St. Ives, Cornwall in the moderate Hawthorne manor house. Despite his mothers wish for schooling, Deans Grandmother Hawthorne took it upon herself to educate the two boys. When she found Dean excelled in the arts, she taught him sketching and gave him violin lessons amongst his other studies. During the summers, Dean visited the Matteucci family at their Italian home. There he spent time with his other grandparents and cousins, learning of the local culture and working in the family Hatmaking shop, learning the trade.

Dean's first two years at Hogwarts seemed to fly by as he eagerly absorbed his lessons. He was sorted into Hufflepuff, and while his housemates were cordial and he made one or two friends, Dean mainly focused on his studies, or practicing his violin or sketching. His level-headed manner kept him out of trouble for the most part, and he excelled at Transfiguration and Charms, while finding Potions and Herbology a struggle to work on.

Paternal Grandmother - Jacob's mother, Dean's grandmother, was from the Potter Family. Which means Dean's also tied to many in the Potter Family. It was Caroline that insisted on schooling Dean and Kaleb herself. While she might not have originally approved of her son breaking the Pure-Blood Hawthorne line. They are her family and there's nothing to be done, but make sure they get the best upbringing she can arrange.

Bradley Hawthorne
Uncle - Jacob's little brother. He married Ruth Harper. It's hoped that marrying into the Harper family doesn't bring the Harper Curse to the groom. It's sad and maybe a bit romantic to think that they live life to the fullest together. Never knowing when or if the Harper Curse will kill Ruth at any time in the most bizarre of ways.
