Appearance: King has light brown almost reddish hair and brown eyes. He's currently 5'7" but he might still have some growing to do, so perhaps he'll grow taller yet. Like most teenage boys in the middle of a growth spurt he's quite lanky, with long arms and legs, making him look a bit like an awkward scarecrow. His right hand is his wand arm.

Since he is a Hogwarts student he's usually seen wearing his uniform in Hufflepuff colours, but even when he isn't in uniform he gravitates towards his house colours. He prefers casual clothing, choosing comfort over style most days unless he has to dress up for some event.

History:
1873 - King is born

1875 - Jolie is born, not that King really remembers this, he was only 2.

1877 - Sybille is born, he's a bit older now and is very excited to get another younger sister.

1880 - Ace goes away to Hogwarts, King mopes about it for a good while. He already misses his eldest brother. King also does his best to hide the fact that he struggles with reading, making Jolie, who is younger but already can do something he can't, read things out loud to him so he can memorize it to hide it from his parents.

1882 - Avril goes away to Hogwarts too, but King doesn't have much time to mope about it inbetween mother pampering them, and trying to escape her smothering attention. His parents also finds out about his reading troubles, and assigns him a tutor. Progress is slow.

1883 - Father is a werewolf, and King doesn't know how to feel about it. He gets very clingy for a while, alternatively hovering around his father and avoiding him. Things eventually smooth out. Leroy goes to Hogwarts, and King is already sort of dreading next year. His reading and writing lessons are going better, he knows the alphabet now.

1884 - He finally shows his first signs of magic, much to king's relief. He'd started worrying he was a squib, and had been dreading not getting his letter. He can now read and write to a certain degree, long and complicated words frustrates him and he can't seem to quite grasp them and his spelling is not the best, but it's something. He's both nervous and excited to go to Hogwarts, and is disappointed when he's not sorted into any of his siblings' houses.

1885 - Cousin Edgar comes to Hogwarts this year. He feels a bit sorry for Edgar, it doesn't make sense that he had to be held back a year just because his birthday was after September 1st.

1886 - Jolie starts Hogwarts as well. It's nice to have so many of his siblings here, it means he always has someone he can seek out when his anxieties get too much.

1887 -Leroy and uncle Charles are dead. King feels like he's in shock, he starts getting nightmares, reliving them dying in front of him. He rarely sleeps through the night anymore, and he starts withdrawing into himself. When he goes back to Hogwarts it only gets worse. Ace has graduated, Avril was pulled out of school, and Leroy is dead. He doesn't want to bother his younger sisters with his nightmares, so he keeps quiet about it. Some days he feels like a ghost, maybe he'll just disappear one day?

1888 - Father is dead, then mother dies giving birth to Roselle. King doesn't know what to do, he feels numb, like this is all a terrible nightmare that he can't wake up from. He doesn't know how to act around Ace anymore either, and he moves through the house like a silent ghost. Then Avril runs away to join the expedition, and he's sure she'll die, just like everyone else in their family. Once she gets back he hovers awkwardly, and when it's time to go to Hogwarts he's not sure if he's sad or relieved.

Personality:
Shy - Kind - Hesitant - Trusting - Self-Conscious - Anxious - Curious

King is a bit shy, but also a people pleaser. He always desperately needs people to like him, and so will put up with uncomfortable social situations if it means making other people happy. King has always been a rather awkward boy, sensitive and easily flustered, but after witnessing his uncle and brother die in front of him he's become even more quiet, practically drawing into himself. The recent death of his parents did not help, and he seems to have retreated back into his shell after for a while he'd seemed to get better.

Still, he does have a curious streak. While research and reading will never be something he takes any joy in, he likes to explore. He's at his happiest when he can hike through woods, discovering all the plants and animals that lives there. If given the chance he will surely slip away to explore whatever place he's at.

Other:
King is dyslexic and struggles greatly with reading and writing.

He's good at more practical subjects rather than the one involving a lot of theory. He takes music as an elective, and is quite skilled at the piano.

OWL courses: Care of Magical Creatures, Earth Magic.

His boggart is flying tigers.
