Name: Sylvester Alleyne "Silver" Blackwood
Year you wish to be in: 5th
Description: 6'1" and lanky, broader in the shoulders than elsewhere. Moss-green eyes ringed in deep-forest green and long hair, naturally wavy, dark brown, usually worn down. Clothing style is offbeat; vintage clothing, distressed jeans, canvas shoes.
Personality: Introverted. Been called sensitive. Been known to have my opinions swayed by a good argument or the right pressure. I don't drink, smoke, or do drugs, but I'm not really as adamantly against them as my brother. Intelligent, thoughtful, book-smart. Creative, like my brother, but I focus it into my writing.
Background: Younger of two sons to an old English Pureblood family that's more or less cut us off, though to our view, it's for the better. Dad met Mom on holiday in America, and the Blackwoods couldn't handle her being Muggle, so Dad just uprooted for her, no questions. We weren't raised as Muggles; Mom coped with learning about magic just fine, but my brother and I always had that edge in Muggle Studies and used it shamelessly. Me more than him. We were raised near the coast of California, but Mom died last year, and Dad decided to move back to England. Long story short, here we are, Dad with a lower-level job at the Ministry, us with a few years left in a new country, no less. But we'll deal.
Anything Else: Ravenclaw might be a good place for me. I've got the brains for it. I could go to Hufflepuff, too, though the whole making-friends thing is a little beyond me. Just don't put me in the same house with my brother. I'd be too busy plotting his demise to study properly. Love him to death, but sometimes I just want to love him to death, if you know what I mean.
(Ravenclaw!)
