History:
Jeremy is born the eldest son of a well to do wizarding family in October of 1863. He is a sweet and easy baby and the staff and family love him. He remembers little of these days, full of nannies and the nursery. His sister is born when he is three years old. He is fascinated by this new creature that appears in the nursery. At four years old he shows his first sign of magic when his sister climbs out of her crib and starts to fall to the floor. His magic suspends her in midair until the nanny can grab her. At the age of five his father employs a variety of tutors and Jeremy spends much of his time in his lessons. When he is six his younger brother joins them in the nursery.
Jeremy begins at Hogwarts in September of 1875 where he is disappointedly sorted into Hufflepuff instead of his father's Gryffindor or his mother's Ravenclaw. He easily makes friends and excels at his classes. With the events in the magical world his family relocates to a grand house in Wellingtonshire in 1877. In his third year he adds Care of Magical Creatures and Ghoul Studies to his schedule since that's what everyone else is taking. Owls at the end of his fifth year go well, nothing terribly remarkable. In his sixth year he lightens his course load to Charms, Transfiguration, DADA, Potions, COMC. To fill his extra time he tries out for Chaser on the house team, he makes the team and plays for the last two years of school.
After his graduation in 1882 he settles into the life his father expects of him following a year long tour on the continent, learning his father's finances and becoming a gentleman of leisure. His immediate family is mercifully spared from the fire and laughing plague of 1884, however, the illness does kill several members of his extended family, including a cousin he was close with. The next decade passes in much the same vein, leaving Jeremy wondering what exactly his purpose in life should be.
Personality:
Jeremy is a social chameleon. He can spend time socializing and make friends easily, but few people truly actually know him. He’s charismatic, amiable, easy to smile, a charmer. But he also appears ambivalent in all opinions. He very rarely actually reveals any inner depths of himself, just showing others someone they can love. He loves his family fiercely which has had the affect of developing him into a people pleaser. Jeremy often wonders who he is and what he would believe in with no outside influence. While he can be charismatic and cheerful, he does not seek out others, instead allowing them to seek out him. He’s got nothing to prove and so he often is content to observe until he is introduced to someone.
Jeremy is often considered the responsible one of his siblings. He’s clear headed, even keeled, and very hard to fluster. As well as being easy in social situations he is also a very good listener. Not only that he is an altruistic individual who will often put the needs of others before himself and lend a helping hand whenever possible.
Despite all this Jeremy often wonders at the meaning of life and what he actually wants out of it.
