    Appearance: George is average in most aspects. He is average height at 5’8”, he has an average build and everything is all rather average. He has brown hair and blue eyes and writes with his right hand.

    History:

    1857 | George is born in the November. He is the fourth child born to his parents.

    1858 | Hannah goes to Hogwarts, although George is too young to remember.

    1862 | George gets himself his final sibling, a sister named Molly.

    1863 | Hannah leaves Hogwarts because she’s preggo and Harry and Joanna are not happy. They cast her off, despite her marrying the father of her child. Robert also goes to Hogwarts later in the year.

    1866 | Mary goes to Hogwarts in this year.

    1869 | George goes to Hogwarts and as his parents cannot afford to send three children to school, Robert is pulled from school and gets work as a servant, starting a trend.

    1871 | In this year, both George and Mary are pulled from school for whatever reason and they both get work in the same household.

    1875 | While working as a footman in the same household, George begins to develop ~feelings~ for the other footman. After several months of anguish it transpires the other footman likes him too and they get it on. However soon George feels super shitty about this, but soon comes to confide in Mary. Although George’s first relationship doesn’t last long, it has a lasting impact on George.

    1876 | Molly becomes a housemaid in this year.

    1879 | After working as a footman for five years, George begins doing some valet work when his boss’ actual valet is unwell/away. Mary gets a job as a lady’s maid in a different household but the two remain in constant contact and see each other on their days off.

    1883 | After doing a bit of valeting for a while, George gets a job as a valet for a Mr Orpheus Parkinson whom George thinks is terribly handsome.

    1884 | 1884 is a bit of a crazy year for George. After being in “competition” with a maid, he kind of doesn’t save her from a fire and saves whiskey instead (it was expensive whiskey though!). Then during the rebuilding of Mr Parkinson's house, George stays with his parents (who won’t shut up about him not being married nor having any children).

    1885 | As of 1885 George is back where he belongs, working as Orpheus Parkinson’s valet and fawning over him. He hasn’t left any more maids to die, although he is prepared to metaphorically and actually push some maids down the stairs if they stand in his way of his one true love.

    Personality: To quote Lauren, George is as gay as the day is long. He’s pretty okay with the whole thing, although George is generally not a happy bunny that he’ll never be able to openly be in a relationship with his significant other. If he was modern he’d be one of those guys who would campaign for gay rights and snog his boyfriend in front of those guys with the “God Hates Fags” signs and he’d be super liberal and political and shit. He’s also terrified of being outed, especially to his parents because they’re like super crazy about being proper and stuff.

    On an actual personality front, George is a hopeless romantic, he’s all about love and loves reading romance novels he gets his sister to buy for him because he likes to pretend he’s a manly man. While George is a very loyal man who would go to the ends of the earth for his family and friends, he’s also quite ruthless and is more than happy to shove people he doesn’t like under the bus if it suits him. He can be a nice guy if he wants to be but like, being nice can be hard work at times.
