August 15 2016

Basic Appearance:
Blonde hair: Styled messily, it appears laidback and simple.
Blue eyes: Bright and happy, they are quite soothing
Caucasian: His European origin gives him this skin tone, though now it is more a light olive.

Personality:
Declan is very kind and loves to make friends, he finds it easy to make friends because of his kind heart and sweet demeanour. He can sometimes be clueless and he does not always get a hint, he is easily used, but never realises it and he loves talking. Though he is a nice and talkative boy, he is also very shy, he is used to people talking for him rather than him talking for himself, so he finds it hard to start off conversations with strangers, rarely knowing what to say, but once he is comfortable, he can talk up a storm, often referring to his older sister as a topic of conversation as she is the only stable relative he knows.

Declan likes to have fun. If he does not find something enjoyable, despite his kind and shy exterior, he will rebel and refuse to do anything he does not want to do. His stubborn attitude and materialistic mind-set can make him appear stuck-up and snobby, though he is neither; he is usually too shy to defend himself when yelled at or ridiculed for such behaviour.

Declan can be a little thick. Sometimes it takes a while for his to understand what people are talking about and if he believes that an awkward situation to happening, he will shut down and possibly walk off. He does not like waiting and is easily distracted, but can never ignore someone in tears, as his kind and protective personality shine through and he 'nurses' them back to health, though he can never do this to himself and is often torn down by insults and angry people.

Declan can be a very bubbly boy, he can be a little crazy and energetic and very open, his enthusiasm is outrageous and he is usually a pocket of sunshine, this helps him repel bad feelings and teasing that he may receive and helps him keep himself entertained as he can always from the light at the end of the tunnel and can always find the fun in any given task. If he fails to find fun, he drops the task for something more interesting to do.

Declan's innocence can be used against him and he is often seen as naive, he also tend to have bad luck with his wand and sometimes spells don't seem to work for him, usually if he is trying to use a simple spell, it can turn horribly wrong. His first day at Durmstrang, he had accidently cursed another student when trying to use 'Lumos'. He is also a strong believer in 'True love' and 'Soulmates', so he is very hesitent when deciding whether to enter into a relationship with someone.

Vojtek Lesley nee Chernozemski, forty, father, wizard, Durmstrang Professor.
Kaylee Lesley, thirty eight, mother, Part-Veela, healer.
Danika Lesley, Part-Veela, nineteen, Durmstrang Graduate, sister. Danika comes off as rude and demanding, which she is, but Declan does not see her this way. He sees her as a kind individual, who would do anything for her family, namingly, Declan. She often uses her brother for her own enjoyment, but does try to help him with things such as love and education and socialisation.
Dexter Lesley, Part Veela, nine, brother, occasional 'Auror', Dexter is kind and adventureous, he is always getting into something in true nine year old fashion.

Thats about it or now. Have fun.
 
IC:

"Hiya sister!"

Is there a reason why each of his names has six letters?
"I don't think so, though I think it is a wonderful coinsidence, my favourite number is six!"

Does Declan like the nickname Cherub.
"Yes I do, I love the name, though, only as a nickname, it would be awkward if it were my legit first name."

Does Declan get along with his siblings?
"Yes I do, very well actually, Dexter and I are always out the back playing, the twins and I... we don't do much, but I do read to them at night. While Danika and I get along very well, but we have not seen each other because she is out of school now."

Does Declan want to have any pets?
Not really, I do love pets, but they seem like high maintenece, I can barely take care of myself, let alone another creature that can't talk to me!"

How does he feel being a Veela?
"I don't really like it, not that much. I do get a lot of attention by both girls and guys, but I don't want that, besides, the teasing is a lot, though when you think about it, you'd think that people would think it to be cool to be part-veela, but it most certainly is not!"

How does he feel knowing he has been outed as gay?
"What do you think? I think the term 'outed' explains my feelings on the subject and I'm not even positive."

When did he know think he was gay?
"Very recently, though I would like to not go into detail."

How did he feel having to change schools?
"Very please, I was hoping that my request would not be denied because of the fact that it is very far away from my home in Bulgaria, I was tempted to lie, but I didn't."

What do you mean by Declan being 'Out-there'?
"To be perfectly honest, I'm odd when I first meet someone, my erratic mood swings are also strange, and the fact that I tend to not answer questions and can be quite hyper when happy."
