Name: Kono Slaker
Age:15
Year: 5th year
Personality: Kono has a bit of a front that has come to be formed from hanging out with the occasional wrong person and from being teased a lot before coming to Hogwarts. Be cause of that front he makes fun of people he doesn’t know real well on occasion is rude, sardonic, insubordinate, and over all pretty much a jerk. However when he makes friends he stays loyal to them for just about eternity. If they are in a fight he’s in a fight. If they have a problem with someone he has a problem with someone. But regardless of friendship in the time of need and under pressure Kono performs. He will put himself in danger to protect someone. He sticks up for what is right and works towards the greater good. He can take control of a situation as well.
History: Kono grew up with his parents in any ordinary Wizard village in England. His mother was a muggle born and his father was a half blood but both went to and graduated from Hogwarts (His father one year earlier than his mother). His father went on to work for the ministry as Auror. His mother decided to avoid the hustle and bustle and work out of home as an author. She went on to write not only a school textbook for 3rd years but numerous fiction novels. When his parents decided to start a family, his father requested transfer to a safer department and the ministry accepted his request by sending him to the Department of Magical Transportation. His Brother Dante was born only three years earlier and his brother Jared only three years after Kono was born.
He grew up practicing quidditch with his father, learning about magical creatures through experience and interacting with other kids in his neighborhood. Two of his closest friends were Mira and Shadow Quanz. They lived right next door to him. Mira was younger than him by only a couple months but Shadow was only a year younger than Dante. Dante, Jared, Kono, Mira, and Shadow all pretty much hung out together until Dante went off to Hogwarts since they were all within 3 years of each other though most of the time Jared would be left out of the group or Dante and Shadow would go off and do their own thing. When It was finally Kono’s turn he made one friend immediately on the train. Mongol Kaiman. He was a big boned little boy. Not necessarily fat but he had a bit of excess to him he was dark skinned but when Kono asked him about it he said it was just a tan since he had lived in Southern Spain for a while.
When was about to be sorted he thought through what he knew about the houses and decided that he would be happy anywhere but Slytherin since they always seem to turn into a bad seed and Kono may be mischievous but evil never and he was still a child it was his job to not be perfect. By some stroke of luck or fate Kono Mira and Mongol ended up in the same house as Dante. They went through their classes and Kono quickly discovered he excelled in all wand working classes like Transfiguration, Charms, and Defense Against the Dark Arts. But Potions, Herbology, and History of Magic he just couldn’t get quite right. Luckily Mira was fairly good at explaining things and she took to common knowledge assignments like Peanut Butter to Jelly. As Kono ascended through the years assignments started getting longer and harder than usual but he handled it fairly well.
When he became a 4th year Jared came to school and Kono had to look after him like Dante had for Kono. It did become a hassle after a little while but shortly into the school year he made his own friends and started hanging out with Kono and his friends less and less. This was around the time he met Yumi Gandal. She was a Ravenclaw from his year that for some reason Kono hadn’t noticed before. She was incredibly intelligent and with a personality quite similar to Kono’s. Kono will never forget the first time he initiated conversation with her…. Or tried rather. She cut him off before he had even said anything by saying, “No I don’t want to go out with you, have a butterbeer with you, help you with your homework, pull your finger, make a bet, hear a joke, listen to your problems, watch you do a spell you just got down or even talk to you for that matter.” Without even looking up from her textbook. Kono felt like being a smart alec that day say he replied. “Sorry I just figure you might want your galleon back.” When she immediately looked up Kono pulled his face into one of mock confusion and asked her, “I thought you didn’t want to talk to me.” She rolled her eyes but smiled and she had been part of Kono’s little posse ever since.
Each and every year since he became a student at Hogwarts he tried out for Chaser on the Quidditch team and every year someone beat him out and Dante would take the last spot but this year Dante had graduated and joined the ministry as an intern to become an Auror. This year was the year Kono would make it onto the Quidditch team though this was also the year for Owls. Something Kono was definitely not looking forward to.
Roleplay Sample: Kono and his family were at the train station yet again. Dante had even shown up to see his brothers off. When Kono got on the train he went back to the cabin that he Yumi Mira and Mongol almost always took on their way to and form school. When he got there, Mongol was already seated with a grin on his face from ear to ear. “What are you so happy about?” Kono asked maybe a little too rudely.
Mongol just turned to him with grin still intact and said. “You know how there is a spot open on the Quidditch team for a chaser?”
“Yeah. Why?” asked Kono confused by where this is going.
“Well I just found out that one of the beaters is gone too. We could be on the Quidditch team together.” Said Mongol as if expecting Kono to start jumping with joy.
He would’ve too if Mira hadn’t walked in right there and sat by the window on Kono’s side. So to save face Kono just said, “Yeah that’s great.” With a smile. Yumi joined them relatively soon after that and the Hogwarts Express was on its way. When they arrived at Hogwarts Kono and his friends proceded to their tables and awaited the Headmaster’s speech. Kono just looked around and smiled. Mira gave hima funny look of humorous curiosity. “What?”
“Oh nothing.” He said but secretly in his head Kono thought “I just got to thinking about how good we have it here.”
Questions[/u]
If you were being attacked, what would you do? Most likely stand and fight unless there was someone who couldn’t get away then I would help them to safety first. My life isn’t a priority.
If you saw your friend being hurt, what would you do? If there was someone hurting them, I would attack the attacker and try to take them down. If they just got hurt on their own I would rush to their aid and try to help them or call for help.
