Name: Charles Matthew Hamilton (Charlie)
Birthday: September 25th 1985
Gender: Male
Magical Background: Half-blood
Magical Affiliation: Light
Wand: 11", cedar, unicorn hair. The cedar wood suggests Charlie's strength of character and unusual loyalty. The witch or wizard who is well-matched with cedar carries the potential to be a frightening adversary, which often comes as a shock to those who have thoughtlessly challenged them.
Physical Description:
Charles Matthew Hamilton, Charlie to his friends, is tall, standing at six feet, two inches. He has dark hair and dark eyes, with an olive skin tone. Charlie has brown hair cut short, and very dark chocolate-brown eyes. A strong jaw and high cheek bones help to emphasis the brooding strength of his face. Charlie is of an athletic build, thanks to a love of exercise, and perhaps the occasional fist fight. He loves to run, and has cultivated a habit of going for a run every morning. Charlie dresses well, though casually, and will often be found clad in dark jeans, button-down shirts with sleeves rolled to his elbows, and a leather jacket. He prefers the casual 'jeans and t-shirt' look to suits and ties, though he will tolerate the latter if the need arises.
Personality:
Growing up mostly with no close family has made Charlie extremely wary of whom he trusts, and as a result can be hard to get to know. Having said that, once a person does get through the walls he has built around himself, Charlie is a loyal and steadfast friend, and will do anything he can to protect those he loves. A passionate man Charlie can be a bit of a hot head when pushed too far, and is not afraid to fight for what he believes in. Charlie is well-read and intelligent, and has a head for politics and current affairs. He worked hard during his magical schooling, and though he was raised by his muggle aunt when his parents died, is a skilled wizard. Charlie can be brooding and quiet, and often can seen as quite standoffish and proud, but once you get to know him he is kind, easy to talk to, and has a very dark, sarcastic sense of humour.
Family:
Damien Hamilton, father: deceased.
Jasmine Hamilton, nee Beauchene, mother: deceased.
Annabelle Beauchene, aunt: deceased.
History:
Charlie was born Charles Matthew Hamilton on the 25th of September, 1985, in a small magical hamlet in Scotland. His father, Damien Hamilton, was a wizard, and worked as a Gringotts Curse Breaker in the Scottish branches of the magical bank. His mother, who was Muggleborn, was an extraordinarily beautiful woman, and despite her parentage an extremely talented witch. Unfortunately, Charlie had very little time with his parents, as they died when he was three years old, in an accident in Wales while on holiday. Charlie was sent to live with his mother's sister, Annabelle, who was a muggle, in France, where he spent most of his life. Growing up surrounded by muggles was hard, and so when he turned eleven he was very eager to start his magical schooling. He attended Beauxbatons Academy, where his mother had wished him to be educated if for whatever reason he could not attend Hogwarts. Of course, the Second Wizarding War had begun in earnest by the time Charlie should have been sent to Hogwarts, thus his aunt kept him in France.
Charlie excelled at school, and fast became one of the brightest wizards of his age group. He studied wordless and wandless magic, and can achieve high standards of both, and was Head Boy in his final year. Annabelle was not a poor woman, but they were not particularly wealthy either, and so it was a surprise to Charlie on his seventeenth birthday when his aunt revealed he had been left his family home and his parent's estate, which she had been keeping in trust for him. This set him up very nicely once he graduated, and so Charlie is quite a wealthy man. Just after graduation, Annabelle died, and so Charlie left France and returned to his family home in Scotland, where he lived and worked as an apothecary.
In 2007, Charlie packed up and left Scotland to go travelling around the world, and it was a year later, in Spain, that he met Kat Samuels. He and Kat fell in love, and spent many months together, until one night when they decided that it was time, their brief love affair was over, and she returned to her home. Charlie himself returned to Scotland, but felt unbearably restless and alone, and so decided to apply for a position with the Ministry of Magic, as an Auror. He passed the aptitude tests with flying colours, and thus (unknowingly) followed Kat to London. When the pair met up again, as was bound to happen in ol' London town, Charlie and Kat were both pleased to find they were still close friends, and bore each other no ill will.
At this moment, Charlie is an important and skilled Auror in the Ministry, and has many close friends, though he can still seem proud and standoffish at first.
