Other distinguishing details:
Got a tattoo on my left arm my last year of Durmstrang, one of my best mates was leaving and the three of us - the Musketeers, decided to get an identical tattoo done on one of our weekend jaunts up to the local village. Its a bizarre looking face for all the world really, we all got them done just above the sleeve level of a t-shirt so our parents and professors wouldn't mangle us.


Family:

Father's name: Democles Centauri

Brief description (occupation, blood, etc): Born in 1980, to wizards Barabus Centauri and Carla Montegomery. My grandmothers family were muggles though she herself was a witch. They lived for a time in Portugal and also Poland depending on where my grandfathers job within the ministry took them. Finally in 1991 on receiving his letter from Hogwarts they moved to Scotland. My grandfather was greatly disappointed as he had hoped his son would attend Durmstrang like he had but no letter from that school ever came. As it was my father became a Ravenclaw but due to severe harassment by a group of Slytherins he left. His grandfather was disgusted by this lack of backbone in his only son and though he attempted to get his son into Durmstrang, my father was homeschooled instead. Becoming a graduate in 1998.

He went to work for the daily prophet as a reporter, it was thanks to this job that sent him on location to America that he met his future bride, my mother Antonia Verbalian. They corresponded when he returned to Scotland but eventually she moved over and they married in the summer of 2001.

My father eventually rose in the ranks of the newspaper to become assistant editor but when his son had troubles of his own at school, he was grateful that a magazine in New Zealand offered him the place of Editor and Chief. He applied on behalf of his son for a position at the Hogwarts school there, hesitant of course to do so but having heard only great things felt it could just be the place for him. Dispite the fact that the headmistress had gone missing from the Triwizard Tournament the year before and death eaters were allegedly the culprits.

Mother's name: Antonia Verbilian - Centauri

Brief description (occupation, blood, etc): was also born in 1980 but in Chicago, Illinois. Her parents were also wizards though her grandparents were all muggles. She attended Salem School of Witchcraft and graduated in 1998. On discovering her love of literature she began work in a book store and it was here she met my father who was abroad working. They fell in love but as he returned to Scotland, she thought nothing more would come of the relationship. She was therefore delighted when he began writing her lengthy letters and she replied as kind. It was not long before she quit her job and moved to Scotland where they eventually married. After their first year and no sign of any children, she went to night school to study for a teachers degree. It was to be another four years before they had their one and only child, namely myself.

My mother of course always lived in awe of her father-in-law, a gruff old man with a solid temper. He insisted from the day I was born that I would attend Durmstang and much to his delight, I received a letter from there instead of Hogwarts Scotland. After the issues my father had dealt with at Hogwarts he was not overly pushed which magic school I attended, so they let me attend Durmstrang.
