    March Hare
    #1
    In CharacterFull Name: March Alias HareNicknames: NoneBirthdate: 29 February 1852Current Age: 30Occupation: PotioneerHogwarts House: RavenclawWand: 13", oak, werewolf toothBlood Status: Halfblood (both parents were halfbloods)Social Class: UpperFamily: MOTHER: MARY BETH HARE, 66 || March's mother, Mary Beth was generally warm towards her children, though she had her moments when she wanted nothing to do with the,. In today's world, she would be considered to have either bipolar or borderline personality disorder, or a little bit of both. Her children love her dearly, even if they do fear her sometimes. FATHER: CHARLES WALLACE HARE, 66 || Charles is a self made man, who did something. March doesn't know much about his father's work life, but his father does take pride in March's accomplishments with potions, and often asks March to create a certain kind of potion for this, or a certain kind of potion for that. SISTER: ALICE ------ HARE, 36 || For as long as March can remember, his sister has been extremely odd. When she turned eleven, her parents placed her in a child's asylum. Once she became of age, she was kicked out of the children's asylum and lived with her parents for a year until they could find a suitable asylum for her. She has been there ever since, and March hardly knows her. BROTHER: JOHNNY ------ HARE, 31 || Johnny is a perfectly suitable young man, save for his obsession with hats and the fact that he's gone mad from working with leathers and the chemicals that go into making them pliable. He and March were relatively close as kids, and it was March who gave Johnny the nickname of the 'Mad Hatter.' BROTHER: DUKE ------ HARE, 25 || Duke has been called 'Tweedle Dee' by his family, despite the fact that he's much less intelligent than his twin brother, Dale. The two are short and chubby with baby faces that are identical. March still has trouble telling the two apart. BROTHER: DALE ------ HARE, 25 || Dale is a squib, and was therefore given the nickname 'Tweedle Dumb,' despite the fact he is extremely intelligent. Much smarter than his brother when it comes to book knowledge, he can be less than appropriate when it comes to how to act in society. SISTER: HATTIE ------ HARE, 18 || Hattie is the only relatively normal Hare, and her nickname, the 'Red Queen' comes from her all around demanding and superior personality traits along with the fact that March turned her red once by accident. Hattie seems to revel in the fact that they call her a queen, regardless of why.Appearance: March isn't the most handsome of fellows, but he has beautiful sandy blonde hair and deep blue eyes to match. He stands at a relatively average height of five feet, eight inches but feels completely consumed by his huge feet. He is the tallest of his siblings, and stands even an inch taller than his father. No one knows where the extra inch came from. March dresses absurdly to most, wearing on most occasions a white frock coat and undergarments with boots on his feet, goggles on his head and nothing more. He prefers to use his left hand over his right, though he could use his right if things came down to it (like his left hand was bitten off by an alligator or something).History: 29 FEBRUARY 1852: March was born to an older couple with a six year old daughter and a one year old son. His parents already had their hands full with their daughter, as she was a bit of a nutter, and with a one year old hanging around. After March was born, his parents hired on both a nanny and a governess for their children. 16 DECEMBER 1852: Alice, March's older sister, is sent away to a children's asylum. Since March was still an infant and Alice had little to no interest in him, the separation didn't affect either very much. 13 AUGUST 1857: The twins Duke and Dale are born. March, having never seen a baby before, is intrigued by them both. He manages to snag one out of his bassinet, but dropped the baby in the process. March showed his first signs of magic by making the baby hover just inches from the ground. 25 DECEMBER 1858: March gets in trouble for mixing all the turkey dressings into one giant pot. He has always enjoyed mixing things together, but never to this extent. March almost destroyed Christmas and was actively banned from the kitchens. 1 SEPTEMBER 1863: March goes to Hogwarts for his first day of school with his older brother, Johnny. He is sorted into Ravenclaw, where Johnny was sorted the year before, and decides he's going to love it there. March begins to look up to Johnny, despite is odd obsession with hats. 17 OCTOBER 1863: First year potioneers receive their first, real in-class assignment to do. March finishes within the shortest amount of time possible to finish the potion within, and scores perfectly. March decides that he will work with potions for the rest of his life 22 JULY 1868: OWL results are sent out to students, and March receives his. He scored an 'outstanding' in potions, 'acceptable' in transfigurations, 'acceptable' in charms, 'acceptable' in herbology, and failed all the rest. Despite his four passing grades, March doesn't care about any score other than his potions one. 20 JUNE 1870: March graduates from Hogwarts and enters the real world. He continues living with his parents, tinkering around with potions, until he can find a real job. Despite his magical training, Johnny's opened up a hatter shop and works using his hands instead of magic. March debates working with his brother for awhile. 3 JANUARY 1875: March is accepted into the potioneer's guild, after sending them some samples he whipped up in his home kitchen. They were impressed by his skill, especially at home and in a kitchen using no special equipment, and decided he would be a great addition to their guild, despite the fact they knew nothing about him. 28 NOVEMBER 1877: March moved from his parent's home into a home in Hogsmeade, so he could be closer to his brother's new shop. He opens his own shop where he creates and sells potions and helps youngsters if they need help with potions. March makes potions for everything.Personality: [Optional.]Sample Roleplay Post: [At least a paragraph.]Out of CharacterName: [ Lexi ]Age: [ 24, ugh ]Contact: [ PM ]Other Characters: [If any]How did you hear about us?: [where or who?]
