Full Name: Alexander George Montgomery
Date of Birth: Alex was born on the 17th of June, 2020.
Current Age: 11
Personality:
How to describe me? I don't know. I guess... Well, I know I've got brains. I know things, but a lot is useless knowledge. I can drive my mother crazy with facts. But... I'm private. I'm shy. It's hard to get to know me unless I trust you.
Alex has two panes to his personality; the surface, and whatever is under it. To those who don't know him, he's extremely quiet, and does his best not to talk to anyone. But you can see him thinking, whatever cogs there are turning in his head. It makes it hard to get to know him, and you need to make an effort. He seems solitary in a place with no one. Lonely. He is solitary, really. But if he gets to know you, he'll no longer be solitary, and get kind of clingy. Not too clingy, and not all that visibly. But he'll still want to spend time with you.
Under the surface, he's kind of hyper, and quirky It's a huge contrast from what you see on the surface, but it's him. How do you access this? You gain his trust. How do you do that? You be his friend. You need to approach him, and make him talk to you. Somehow. You have to be persistent about it. But who would? It makes making friends for Alex very hard.
Being shy, he find it hard to approach people himself. Usually, if he manages to pluck up the courage, he'll approach his target and say something random. Something weird. Sometimes it just made them look at him strangely, but sometimes it made them laugh. It made him more comfortable, and it meant he could (maybe) talk to them again, peeling off a little bit of his 'skin' every time.
Alex is silently curious, and often itches to ask questions, but his nerves prevent him from doing so. So, they pile up and eventually are dropped on those he feels comfortable with, in a long interrogation session. He hates not knowing things, and gets annoyed when these people don't know answers.
Family:
Alex's father is Ian Montgomery. He is a Wizard, and works at the Ministry.
I don't really talk to my father much... He's always working, and it's been that way my whole life. I don't really know him. When he does talk to me, he's nice enough, I guess, but he's... distant. I wish he'd talk to me more, or even just look me in the eyes when he says happy birthday. Mum tries to make him talk to me, sometimes. It doesn't work. He talks to her all the time though. So, I guess I'm just a disappointment to him.
His mother is Sally Montgomery, a Muggle. She accepts that her husband (and son) are wizards, but prefers to live as a Muggle, despite the obvious perks of being married to a Wizard. She works at a small convenient store in Wellington.
My mother is probably the nicest person in the world. She always talks to me, sometimes to the point where it gets annoying, but I think she's trying to make up for where my dad doesn't. Like she's trying to be my dad and herself at the same time. I don't know how it works, seeing as she is female, but I'm glad she does. She's mostly at home, but she does work during the day.
Alex has no siblings, and his other family all live in Auckland and Wanaka.
Area of Residence: Alex lives in Johnsonville, Wellington, and has his whole life, though now spends most of his years at Hogwarts.
Blood Status: Half-blood.
Heritage: Mostly English, with a hint of Spanish.

Describe your character in three words: Smart. Layered. Onions.
Favourite place to be:
My favourite place... Otari-Wilton's Bush Native Botanic Garden & Forest Reserve. Well, that's the full name anyway. I just call it Otari's. It's amazing, and there's this bit where you're on a bridge over the forest canopy... And the trees are just all... together. I've always wondered what it's like to be part of a huge group like that, all swaying together. And they're so old... I wonder what they'd say to me if they could talk... I don't know if they even would talk to me. Not many people do.
Friends:
I don't... really have friends. Not many people like to talk to me. It's okay, I guess. I don't mind. I can talk to my mum, and animals, and... myself. Okay, I'd like friends. I'd love to have friends. It's part of being accepted, and... normal.
Hogwarts House: Ravenclaw
Hogwarts Hopes and Ambitions: Make a friend, and get good enough marks for his father to speak to him.
Best school subjects: to be discovered.
Worst school subjects: to be discovered.
