I'm male, contrary to my appearance.
I'm 11 years old.
This is my first year here at Hogwarts.
The house I'm in is Slytherin.
People say that, in a nutshell, I'm ditsy, air-headed and somewhat absent-minded, but those close to me, know me to be extremely cunning, with a quick wit and a sharp tongue, if not a bit odd. Some say I'm vain, cold, and am easily flattered or offended. I strive for self-improvement, and self-preservation always takes priority. To me, life is a chessboard, each new person a piece to be utilized. I have no reservations to sacrifice a pawn who's outlived its usefulness, or to further a grand scheme. Like my grandmother, I do not feel bound by established rules and procedures, and traditional authority does not impress me, though I'm not above using flattery to further my means. I undertake tasks the most effective, efficient way, and should plan A no longer work to my advantage, I always have a plan B, C, or D to turn to. Though I'm a capable leader, I have no interest in taking command, and prefer to remain in the background.
My background story is I was the second of two children born to a prestigious, pure-blood family in Manchester, England. My parents, Alexander Frost, a graduate of Durmstrang Institue, and Cordelia Rosier, a Slytherin graduate of Hogwarts, were married and expecting their first child, my sister, Adrienne, just months after their final terms. I was only four when my mother, a Dark Witch, was killed when one of her curses rebounded on her. Unable to adequately care for two small children, my father, now an auror for the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, left us in the care of our grandmother in London, Parisse Frost.
Though she shared the self-serving nature and a certain disregard for the rules that wound its way through our family, and had her share of oddities and eccentricities, she was genuinely compassionate and caring toward us, showing slight favoritism toward me, the "baby." Grandmother did not share our family's obsession with blood purity, which, as it did with many members of the family, widened the rift between she and Adrienne, who had picked it up from our parents. When our father remarried two years later to Rebecca Nott, my sister returned to live in Manchester, while I opted to stay in London.
Not long after I received my Hogwarts acceptance letter, and obtained my wand, I - with the help of my grandmother - quickly set to work learning and practicing whatever bits of magic I could get my hands on - a favorite being jinxes.
I enjoy puzzles, scheming, gossip, fashion, reflective surfaces.
I despise bugs, rodents, or any kind of "creepy-crawlies", ignorant or brutish people, being out-smarted.
I look like this.
My wand is a 16" unyielding ebony with a dragon heart-string core.
Oh yes, there's something else I need to tell you! I'm almost always mistaken for a girl, and he's never without his entourage, fellow Slytherins, Esmeris "Esme" Renarde and Phoebe Burke, Phoebe's twin sister and Ravenclaw, Celeste Burke, Ravenclaw Sophinia "Sophie" Cannith, and Hufflepuff Irma "Mindy" Elanesse.
