Description

Cantankerus Nott is a short man getting on in his years. A bit overweight, he carries himself seriously and is rarely seen cracking a smile. His gray hair is short cropped, and he keeps himself clean-shaven. Steely-blue eyes grace his face that has become lined with age. His lips are thin and frequently downcast in a disapproving frown. His hands are squat and pudgy, with a slight callous on his finger from holding a quill for a long time.

His current attire seems a bit outdated, but still in decent condition. He wears a comfortable suit in a placid shade of black, gray, or even brown. His cravat is faded slightly, but the pattern remains clear. He is always seen with the same brown hat on his head, tall and wide, made of dragonskin and never quite straight.

RP Hooks

Nott Patriarch: Cantankerus is considered the head of the Nott Family.
Author: While the book was published anonymously, it is very well believed that he is the author of: Pure-Blood Directory — a book listed the "twenty-eight truly pure-blood families" with "the aim of helping such families maintain the purity of their bloodlines" — that was published in Britain in the early 1930s.
