Hello Markus,

just a few questions...

1. Why do you think you'd be in Hufflepuff?
2. Your sister considers you Anti-social, this isn't exactly a Hufflepuff trait, do you consider yourself anti-social or is that just her?
3. How old were you when your parents died?
4. How old were you before you were adopted?
5. Where did you acquire the scars from?
6. Do you think you'll enjoy DADA and Charms?
7. Have you any pets?
8. Have you any interests or hobbies?
9. Do you get on with your adoptive sisters?

( Is Moscow a fictional town in Germany for rp purposes or had you meant to say Russia?)

 

[Markus Vanderburg III]

Ooops!!!
I made an accident.
I was going to make him Russian when I remembered he was supposed to be German so I guess I forgot to get rid of Moscow and replace it with another place.
Thanks for pointing that out Andromeda.

1. Why do you think you'd be in Hufflepuff?
Not sure, none of the other houses fit me at all, not brave, not overly intelligent, not sly or cunning, so I must be a Hufflepuff.
2. Your sister considers you Anti-social, this isn't exactly a Hufflepuff trait, do you consider yourself anti-social or is that just her?
I am really very anti social, I have never learned how to deal with people around me, I'm terribly shy and I just don't like to be around groups of people, so I loose myself in a good Ian Rankin novel, or maybe Giles Blunt. Oh yes I like them.
3. How old were you when your parents died?
Around three months old.
4. How old were you before you were adopted?
I was nine turning ten but I first saw Alice and Frank when I was five. Everyone ran towards them while I peered from behind the kitchen wall, with a book in my hands. The boys at the orphanage didn't care for me very much because of my "book worminess," as they would call it.
5. Where did you acquire the scars from?
When I was a few months old my parents were in a car crash, I happened to be in the car as well, and tadaa, large, grotesque scar on my arm.
6. Do you think you'll enjoy DADA and Charms?
Hmm.. I'm not sure about Charms but I'm certain if I like the Professor for it I'll do well. For DADA I'm certain I'll enjoy it, except if we have to duel each other.
7. Have you any pets?
I've got a mutt named Lady. Lady was named by Kase and Anne when they were wee things.Named after Lady and the Tramp.
8. Have you any interests or hobbies?
I enjoy literature and puzzles, mainly solitary activities.
9. Do you get on with your adoptive sisters?
I get on with Annie, Kasey I'm protective of because her age, but erm yeah.

I don't mean to be rude but could I bump this?
I would like to develop Markus as much as I can before he is sorted.
