James Colin Adams​

<i></i>

Full Name:
James Colin Adams

Date of Birth:
25th June 2022

Current Age:
13

Basic Appearance:
James has black hair cropped short, and startling blue eyes. He is fair skinned, but slightly tanned, and is slim, but not underweight. He is muscular, but they are not over the top.

Personality:
James is a quiet person, who is surprisingly ambitious, and gets annoyed over minor things. He doesn't aim to be the highest in everything, but enjoys being important within groups of people. He cares greatly about his family, and is deeply loyal to them, but can be shy at times towards others outside of his inner circle of family. He can be very nosy at times as well.

Family:[ul]
[li]Mother: James' mother, Bianca Collins, was a muggle born into a rich, aristocratic family living in Kent, England. She hated the lifestyle with all the pomp, old fashioned mansions, and the special attention given to her by the servants. As an only child, she was afforded a lot of luxuries which she also detested. When she left for the University of Bath, she used her inheritance to buy her own pad in London and rented at Bath. She spent a lot of time in London, where she met Colin Adams, James' father. She found her first and only true love in him, and they lived together in the luxurious simplicity of her modern-styled apartment. She had James in 2022 after a few months trying. Bianca has many university friends still, and several from her advertising and promotion job in Canary Wharf. When Colin, her husband, died, Bianca first moved to Australia where she lived for six years learning about Colin and his past life. When James accepted his letter to Hogwarts New Zealand, she moved across to Whakatane, New Zealand. She now owns a small villa in the countryside outside the town from where she lives a peaceful retirement earning a little cash from a small vineyard. In James' Second Year, Bianca became terminally ill with cancer, and as a muggle, she was diagnosed without much time to live. Miraculously, she survived past her 'deadline' and so lives in constant fear of dropping dead any moment, leaving James with no parents.</LI>
[li]Father: Colin Adams was born to a large family in the Australian countryside. He lived in a small flat above the family's clothes boutique shop - selling unique clothing which had a very similar style to wizard clothes. Born into a half-wizard family, Colin was a half-blood who was one of the three to inherit their mother's magical ability. Of his seven siblings, the eldest went to Beauxbatons, Colin attended Durmstrang and his youngest brother died at the age of three in a tragic accident where he was run over. Distraught over his sibling's death, Colin tried to forget about his past life and his small wizard brother who had been so recently killed. He became a recluse at Durmstrang and only had one friend who tried to break him out of his melancholy. That eventually came when Colin moved to London as part of his job - he had taken a muggle job as a banker. There he met Bianca and the two hit off from the very start. Colin died in 2025, before James got the chance to know him, of a poison. There was no evidence linking to anyone, and the obvious murder could have been committed by muggle or wizard alike.
[li]Siblings: James was an only child, the only one the family could have before Colin was murdered.
[li]Cousin: James' cousin, Alan de Seigneur, is a retired Quidditch seeker, formerly playing at a semi-professional level. He now owns a large cattle ranch in the south of France, and James visits him for a month each summer. Alan persuaded. James to use his excellent eyesight for playing a seeker role, rather than as a chaser. He hopes that James will become captain of Quidditch for Gryffindor. Alan was also a muggle martial arts champion, and it was he who taught James how to fight so effectively.
<LI>[li]Family finances: James' family has always been well off, mainly due to the large inheritance from Bianca's family. The family never flaunted their money though, and despite wearing luxury clothing along with expensive furniture in their houses, the family never tried to appear better than anybody else.[/li][/ul]

Pets:
James has never had a pet of his own, but when he lived in London for the first three years of his life, he apparently had a tabby cat named Margy. At Hogwarts, he now has a snowy owl which he feeds regularly, and is much like a friend to him.

A page from your diary:
Dear diary,

Today has been tough. My mother has apparently had a bad day today, or at least, that is what the owl sent by her wizarding carer said. She apparently fell over trying to stand up, and couldn't get back up without help. Her mind was apparently oblivious to what had happened. School has only just started, and already I feel as if i need to return home to look after my mother. I only wish she would get better, but it is impossible thinking. I couldn't bear to lose her, she's my only parent left. If only dad were here...

James Adams

If you could have two whole weeks for vacation and go and do anything you wanted, what and where would it be? It would be on an Australian beach, somewhere secluded from tourists, and James would be meeting his father for the first time to see what he was like.

If you had a weakness for one of the seven deadly sins, which one would it be and why? Wrath. James would deal calmly with it until he reached breaking point where his anger would be colossal.

If you could bring one person back to life and spend a whole day with him or her, who would it be and why? His father. He would get to know him, because he never had a chance to do so before his father was killed.

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? His anger. Change it so that it isn't always so concealed, but moderate instead.

What do you do to relax after a bad day? Go to the Quidditch pitch and fly around.

Where would you go to hang out if you wanted to feel comfortable? The Quidditch pitch.

What do you do when you are angry? Conceal it until breaking point where the anger would be so great that everyone around would be affected.

How do you feel in a crowd? How do you feel alone? Crowds do not scare him, but if he knows nobody in a crowd, he would try to get out of it as soon as possible. He prefers his own company, and would relish it unless he had a friend with him.

How important is money to you? Why? Money is important to ensure that nobody in his family suffers unnecessarily, but it is not as important as having happiness in James' eyes.
