Hey guuys. I kind of gave in and made a first year. 
To keep my OCD self happy, I made a dude character, so now I have four girls and four guys. Yay for me.
Anyway, this is Oliver, or Ollie/Olly/whatever you like. He's from a Wizarding part of England (I haven't decided where abouts. Probably London or somewhere northern like Yorkshire or something), but because he kind of raised himself, he doesn't know much about Muggles. He finds them fascinating though, so if your character is a Muggleborn, he'd probably ask lots of questions.
Um, his father is an alcoholic, and he left the family when Oliver was very young. He's kind of one of those dead-beat dads, in that he'll arrange to see Oliver on his birthday or something, or maybe say that he'll come watch his Quidditch matches.. but never turns up. His mother is an alcoholic too, but not a dangerous one. She's never hurt Oliver, but she does neglect him. A lot of the time she'll just leave him at home and go out to the pub until the next morning. His older sister looked after him for most of his life, but she moved away as soon as she was of age. So yeah, family-wise, Oliver has always been somewhat alone, and has had to look out for himself. He's not bitter about it, though, and just kind of thinks that that's normal.
Oliver's not the smartest of boys, and he's not all deep and emotional, but he does have great self-awareness. When it comes to school, he usually just scrapes by, but socially he's very successful and well-liked. Oliver is a natural leader, sometimes to the point of bossiness, but he means well. It's very rare that he'll be intentionally mean or cruel, but he does stand up for himself when necessary. He's a stereotypical Gryffindor in that he doesn't like the majority of Slytherins, but I'm sure a few could win him over. So yeah, he's quite popular and funny, and is a bit of a class-clown too. Umm.. I think that's the basicness down, I'll be writing up his character development in the next few days, so when I've finished you can read that to get a more in-depth look.
Friends
Oliver should have lots of guy friends. He's a friendly person, and fun to be around, so most people like him. He's a guy's guy, so I don't see him being friends with too many girls, but since most of the characters on HNZ are girls, I guess that's inevitable. Oliver is verrrry loyal and protective, and stands up for others more than for himself. If you return the kindness he shows you, then you're BFFs for life, and Ollie will have your back.
Enemies
If you're rude and mean, then Oliver will probably dislike you. He usually sees the good in people, but also tends to judge upon first impressions. So if you're horrible from the get-go, then you probably won't get a Christmas card. He's not a fan of conflict, so he wouldn't confront the mean person, but if they were to.. for example, ask him "Oi, have you got a problem with me?", Oliver would probably reply with "Yeah, I do. You're incredibly rude and unbearable to be around." So yeah, he's pretty straight-up, honest and blunt.
I can see him getting into a fist fight or two, but he would not be the one to initiate it.
Romantic Relationships
Oliver's only eleven, so he isn't keen on girls just yet. Well, he notices when girls are pretty, but the majority annoy him or confuse him. So yeah, no girlfriends just yet. His personality is quite charming though, so I can see how a girl might have a crush on him. Lol, that would actually be quite funny to RP. A girl acting all smitten, and him just looking at her like she had cooties or something. When he gets older he'll be quite girl-crazy, but not yet.
And yass, I believe that is everything. Feel free to PM me for more info, or just post here.
