Length: A little on the longer side of things, wands of this length are slightly more uncommon and not easily forgotten by others.
Style: Straight and smooth: what else is there to say?
Wood: A Cypress wand finds valour in the witches and wizards it chooses - so much so that the owners of Cypress wands have historically been expected to die an honourable death. This wand is for the brave and self-sacrificing.

Playby: Jayden Daniels

Personality: Rāwhiti is a cheerful, laid-back person at pretty much all times. He can be extremely passionate when engaging in activities that are important to him, but he tries not to be overwhelming when others aren't feeling the same way, and when he's spending time with others who prefer quiet he's perfectly happy to just catch their wavelength and go along with them. He's passionate about protecting the people around him and standing up for others when he can, and often takes meeker friends under his wing for their protection. Rāwhiti is difficult to upset and difficult to offend, and makes an excellent companion for almost all purposes.

-Rāwhiti is very personable and good at making others feel comfortable around him. He makes friends easily with people who are very different to him by connecting to their energies rather than trying to make them follow his.
-Rāwhiti is extremely athletic and as a result he's very fit and isn't afraid to use his physical strength to help others if they need it.
-Rāwhiti is extremely passionate about his interests, and finds it easy to learn just about everything about a subject that interests him
Weaknesses:
-Rāwhiti can sometimes take too much of a relaxed attitude, and fail to give weight to things that really need it.
-Rāwhiti tends to pick one focus and neglect the rest of his life, too fixated on the one goal he's chosen to set.
-Rāwhiti is bad at picking sides when people he likes are disagreeing, and will often try to encourage people to let go of things they oughtn't.
Hobbies:
Rugby - Rāwhiti has played rugby his whole life and is a huge fan of the game.
Music - Rāwhiti grew up in a very musical family, and is decent at the guitar and singing, though he doesn't share the same musical ambitions as his older brother.

Kapa Haka - Rāwhiti has done Kapa Haka since he was young, both with his family and school groups, and takes great pride and strength in his haka.
Personality Type: ESFP (The Entertainer)
If anyone is to be found spontaneously breaking into song and dance, it is the Entertainer personality type. Entertainers get caught up in the excitement of the moment, and want everyone else to feel that way, too. No other personality type is as generous with their time and energy as Entertainers when it comes to encouraging others, and no other personality type does it with such irresistible style.
Strengths: Bold, Original, Aesthetics and Showmanship, Practical, Observant, Excellent People Skills
Weaknesses: Sensitive, Conflict-Averse, Easily Bored, Poor Long-Term Planners, Unfocused
History: Rāwhiti comes from a happy home, the second of three. His parents made a point to encourage their children's interests and passions at every turn, and Rāwhiti grew up confident in his abilities and with strong trust in himself. He has had a passion for sports and athletics from an early age, and began playing rippa rugby when he was only five. His childhood was largely happy, filled with a lot of friends and close relationships with his whānau, though things changed dramatically when Rāwhiti was nine and his father announced that he had been having an affair, and was leaving the family to be with his new partner. Devastated, Rāwhiti threw himself even more into his hobbies and relentless cheerfulness to hide that anything was wrong. He was especially crushed by not being able to rely on his usually supportive older brother, who was struggling with the experience by retreating into himself. This only made Rāwhiti more determined to be cheerful, to take on that role of keeping people happy.
Health: Rāwhiti is very fit and generally in good health, though he has several scars from accidents playing rugby over the years.
