Finley Scott Holmes

-----------------------------------------------------
FULL NAME :
finley scott holmes

FINLEY :
finley is both a surname and a gender-neutral given name. Its meaning is of scottish origin, from the gaelic personal name fionnlagh (old irish findlaech), composed of the elements fionn "white", "fair" + laoch "warrior", "hero", which led many people to believe that has been reinforced by an old norse personal name composed of the elements finn "finn" + leikr "fight", "battle", "hero". finley was simply named by the orphanage using a baby name book as he had been left with no name.


SCOTT :
scott is an ethnic or geographical name signifying a native from scotland or a person who spoke gaelic, derived from the old english scotti, originally a generic name given by the romans to gaelic raiders from ireland. another random name picked from a baby book with no real meaning.

HOLMES :
holmes is an english-language surname with several origins. the name can be a variant of the surname holme. this surname has several etymological origins: it can be derived from a name for someone who lived next to a holly tree, from the middle english holm; it can also be derived from the old english holm and old norse holmr. it is also the famous surname of a fictional detective, which is exactly where the surname came from in finley's case.

finley barely owns any of his own clothes and most of the time what he does own is all old and tattered and passed down through the years from older kids who have passed through the orphanage. the clothes he does own can very easily be fit into a bin bag so it can be easily carried around when he ends up being shipped to a new orphanage or temporary foster home.

"While we do have a set of students who live in the dungeons, we aren't a school in the habit of shoving people to the darkest parts. In any case the dungeons really aren't for you...You'll hopefully find drive and passion and a place to call home in....Hufflepuff,"

WAND :
PFpWsUq.jpg

straight 12 1/2 inch whippy black walnut wand with basilisk skin core

LENGTH :
a fairly average length for a wand, not at all uncommon or very special.


STYLE :
straight and smooth: what else is there to say?

WOOD :
black walnut wands are especially aware of self deception and may not perform as expected for a witch or wizard in a state of inner conflict. self-aware and assured wizards will have found a powerful and loyal companion, however.

CORE :
because of the unusual circumstances necessary to create a basilisk and the ban placed on breeding this creature, most wandmakers are reluctant to admit owning wands with this core. the core itself is particularly useful at producing wands that will be strong at defensive and offensive magic. additionally, parselmouths and dark wizards seem to be particularly fond of wands with this core. due to a basilisk's fear of roosters, these wands have been known to behave unpredictably on or near farms.

FLEXIBILITY :
a wand that is quite simple to master but lacks power
