Appearance:
History:Clayton has hazel eyes and blond hair that he tries to keep neat and tidy though it has a tendency to curl. He stands just a smidge above average at five feet, eight and a half inches. He has a slender build. Claytons clothing is usually muted in color, sometimes a little worn and faded but kept tidy when he is not working. Clayton tends to give off an aura of regal sophistication borne from both innate disposition and seven years of Hogwarts etiquette classes that stuck with him. He also has some beauty marks, some of which are very visible on his throat and by his nose.

They end up sharing a kiss due to a mistletoe prank by Peeves.
1885 | Clayton shares a kiss with another girl thanks to yet another trick by Peeves. After that, they end up crossing paths quite often which leads to a very undefined, pseudo-romantic sort of friendship.
A frank conversation about sex that he has with a male friend leads Clayton to the realization that he would not personally be opposed to being with a boy. He also does not like that this friend seems to know about things that he does not re: sex even though at that moment, it sounded like mostly a waste of ones time. So later in the year, for science, he has sex with a rent boy and finds that it is pleasurable and maybe not too much of a waste of ones time.1886 | Clayton does very well on his NEWTs and graduates from Hogwarts.

Sample Roleplay Post:
Mildly amused at the girls huff, Clayton closed his book as he considered the girl. She was not much shorter than Miss Chatwyn and she was not unpleasant to look at. Having dramatics on the verge of hysterics felt nice? The sentiment awarded the girl with a raised eyebrow. He wouldn't know what anything remotely close to hysterics might feel like since he kept a rather excellent control over his emotions or so he felt.
"You had not," Clayton somewhat assured. It was rather difficult to break his concentration when it came to most things. And it seemed a screeching girl was one of those things that couldn't break his concentration. Though he supposed it might have had the girl been in any real danger. His first impression of the girl was that she was an odd sort of girl. That apparently enjoyed dramatics. How droll!
"Clayton Ross, at your service," he replied in return to her introduction, bowing at the waist for a moment before straightening back up. "I trust you are aware of the solution to this or will I need to inform you of it?"
