Personality
Brave / Reckless
Terrell loves doing dangerous activities, he doesn't cower away from anything - unless it's a lake!
However, it's a combination of brave and reckless because he doesn't always understand the risks before he does the brave thing.


Simple
Or not the sharpest crayon in the box. Terrell is not academic and takes longer than most to understand stuff.

Determined
Or Stubborn. It is difficult to deter him when he puts his mind to something!

Sporty
Because of his upbringing he's naturally in good shape and active. He enjoys football, rugby, running and most recently, Quidditch too. He loves to be outdoors.

Friendly
He wants to be your friend, and your friend, and Your Friend!
Heck, he wants to be everyone's friend! Terrell has never had an enemy that he knows of.

What is it like to be friends with Terrell?
He’s a loyal friend, fun to be around, but can be an annoying friend.
He’s simple and forgetful, relying on his friends to help him out. Sometimes you have to explain things to him slowly so that he understands.


History
Terrell grew up on a farm outside Napier with his dad and older half-sister!
From the moment he could walk, he was helping out with the livestock, he has always been active, playing on the farm machinery and looking after the animals.
He loves pretend roleplaying games and playing sports.
Terrell is not very smart, he's never done good at school!
His life has been about farming and until he turned eleven, he always thought he would take over the farm when he got older. Being magical has messed up his plans!


Father: Tom Foley

A kind and clueless muggle.
He lives and breathes the farm.
Ask him what sort of cow is best for breeding and he'll talk to you for the next hour solidly,
ask him what women want and he's got no clue.
He has been unfortunate to have lost the two loves of his life, the first being Terrell's half sisters mother who passed away before Terrell had been born, his second had been Terrell's mother.


Mother: Bryna Bagshaw
His mother passed away when he was a baby.
Bryna had been a witch and is where Terrell inherited his magical ability from.
He doesn't know much about her expect that she was fascinated by muggle farming,
and he knows what she looks like because he keeps a small photograph of her.
Tom Foley does not like to talk about either of his children's late mothers.


Half Sister: Margaret Foley
Maggie is five years older than Terrell and the pair get on very well.
Unfortunately for her, she's been forced to take on the mother-like role,
doing all the cooking and cleaning in the house.
She is very happy

Q. What do you look like?
A: Ummmm.... I'll fetch my mirror!

*Shuffle, shuffle, CRASH! Inaudible cursing, more shuffling*

Right, I'm back. I dropped the mirror so I'm just going to have to guess. I’d say average height, messy brown hair that’s kind of short and spiky, I’d say my weight was average. My eyes are blue, my skin is pink and I’m eleven years old.

Q. Haha no, your real birthday is all we need. Where do you live? Describe it.
A: My home is a muggle farm, it's remote with lots of fields and animals. It's a working farm so of course it's messy. The farm house is small and in need of some decorating. My bedroom is the smallest and messiest room on the first floor.

A: A picture of my mum. She died when I was a baby and I only have one photograph to know what she looks like.

Q. What one word best describes you?
A: I say active, I love being outside running around and having adventures. I like sports too and I want to be on the Quidditch team next year!

Q. What is the thing that has frightened you most? Do you think there is anything out there that’s scarier than that? What do you think that would be?

A: She's not always an angel! Once she thought it'd be funny to trick me into biting a raw onion because they taste like apples!

Q: Oh no that must have been horrible! And what’s the worst thing you’ve done to your sister?
