Full Name: Stradivarius Nicodemus Raphael deMorvang
Preferred Name: "Stradivarius, thank you."
Eye Color: Dark Green, appears black to the casual observer
Hair Color: Dark brown, again, appears black
Height: About 5' 11"
Build: Stradivarius is slender and muscular, lithe but not thin. He is rather long-legged.
Family History: He comes from a PureBlood family of reputation for unfriendliness, a seemingly endless supply of money, and a general disregard for the educative system. Stradivarius is the middle child of five siblings, having two younger brothers, and an older brother and sister, along with, most likely, a few illegitimate siblings. As is common, he is the oddball of the family, a silent, studious child that has no real interest in the 'family business' nor its upkeep. He is often mistakenly viewed as a misanthrope, because he is one of those people who nobody seems to know personally. He is, in fact, quite warm and friendly, it just takes quite an effort to win his trust, and he is slow to open up to anyone. This is mostly due to his upbringing. Ever since he was young he learned to prudently keep his mouth shut and bury his head in his work to deflect the scorn, criticism, or general abuse that raged rampant among his family members, whether it was intended as a jest or not. Stradivarius has a very dry and ironic sense of humor, but often seems to have none at all.
Also, Stradivarius is "unfortunately familiar with the oddity calling herself Fork", that being the second-year student Klarisa. She spent some of her later years, before coming to Hogwarts, in the custody of his family, though they quickly gave her up to another family, finding the extreme child quite unmanageable. During that time period, Stradivarius and Klarisa developed an irrevocable enmity and absolute hatred for each other, though no one knows why they have such distaste for the other, and neither is willing to speak on the subject.
