Alexander Thorn

Backstory

I was sorted into Hufflepuff, obviously. I’m very shy and I love making friends. The Sorting Hat picked Hufflepuff immediately. So far, charms is my favorite and transfiguration is my least favorite. Why would I turn an animal into a tea cozy? I did just fine in Potions, but I never enjoyed it. A lot of the ingredients are creepy and gross. I’m a half-blood and my life is relatively unaffected by that. Most people ignore the half-blood Hufflepuff boy because there’s nothing interesting about him and that’s just fine with me. I’ve heard a lot about Voldemort and I’m very glad he’s gone for good this time. Although his name choice was rather ridiculous. My greatest strength is probably that people can always trust me. My greatest weakness is sweets, of course. I’m a sucker for chocolate frogs and pumpkin pastries. More importantly, what is your greatest weakness? After I finish school, I plan to become an artist. Not very magical, but I’m going to make it magical. Magic is very interesting and I prefer it over science. Magic can help people with so many things and I think that’s wonderful. I have a dog named Comet and a magical delivery cat. Her name is Cleo and she can apparate. My mom is a muggle and my dad is a wizard. He works in the ministry on magical weather. His specialty is rain. My baby sister is two years younger than me and very annoying, as most siblings are. She’s eleven now and starting her first year. I’m in my third. We transferred to Hogwarts when my family moved to London for my dad’s work. The ministry was one rain expert short apparently. My sister was put in Ravenclaw and even though I’ll never tell her this, I’m very proud of her and I love her.
