Appearance: Harrison is the spitting image of his father in his younger days. Clean shaven with dark brown hair and light green eyes. He is a fraction under 6 foot with that fraction growing and shrinking depending on who you ask, it's 5 foot, 11 and a quarter inches in truth. He favours a smart waitcoat and a classic trouser leg or linen travellers attire when visiting the sunnier parts of his portfolio. He was born left handed but was instructed to the right as a child so now rarely uses his left for anything.

Face:
Finn Whittrock

History:

1862: Born as the eldest son to two wealthy parents nine months and a day after their wedding night, a fact his father has bragged about for three decades.

1867-69: Spent two years at his family estates in Calcutta where he picked up a fair amount of Hindi, returning home after his mother took ill with a tropical disease. She made a full recorvery by the next summer.

1871: Finally magic from the pureblood boy causing the antique chandelier in mother's dining room to melt of all things.

1874: Starts in Hogwarts and sorted into Ravenclaw, it suits him well, he learns quickly but makes few waves. He probably should have tried harder.

1878: In a shock, Harrison only barely manages to get high enough grades in his OWLS to take his chosen NEWT courses. The summer us hard on Harrison as his father insists he can be rich, lazy or stupid, he CANNOT choose all three.

1880: It worked, Harrison achieved much better NEWTS than predicted.

1880-82: Works on a number of nepotic roles with his father but finds it unsatisfying, he doesn't need to be working, so he pays to enrol at the Flint institute and a private engineering school for wizards in 1882 taking several courses ultimately leading to qualifications in civil engineering.

1886: Formally takes a consultant position in his father’s estate to better manage and upvalue their property portfolio, it is at this time that he is entrusted with and begins to expand his own portfolio of property.

1890: Father's health is called into question and a larger proportion of the estates are put into the hands of Harrison and his siblings, he recovers, but is shaken and begins stepping back from his duties.

1893: An attempt at courting, a lovely meeting at the Hogwarts coming out ball, but she is uninteresting conversation and correspondence lasts a month at most.

1894: Back to Hogwarts for another round of potential debutantes.


Personality: Harrison Is a hardworking and ambitious man, although a poorer man might not call him hard working for his ability to work when and how he wants. He has grand ambitions and once he gets his full inheritance, he hopes to use his qualification to attract further investors and build a whole town, modern and efficient, with him as the primary land owner.

He is a little classist and purist, but not more than expected and certainly not to the point he would cause social problems. Publicly, he is very aware of the importance of appearance, everyone has a place and that is important. More privately The social strictures tire him and he intends to be more libertarian with his family, to a point, they are Knight’s after all. He soon hopes to find a wife of a similar breeding and hopes that he shall be a good husband. He loves his current family but has an intense rivalry with his brother, both boys however dote on their little sister and hope the best for her.

He speaks English, French and Hindi
