[RYAN POTTER, 24, DEMI MALE, HE/HIM & THEY/THEM] Have you met [FOREST CHANNING] ? I hear the [MUGGLEBORN] can be rather [ANTI SOCIAL], but people say the [ILVERMORNY] graduate can also be [FATHERLY]. I guess it makes sense that they spend their days [MAGICAL VET AND MAGIZOOLOGIST].
Details.
Headcanons:
Forest was born to two squibs family and has a twin and other siblings that he doesn’t know about. But he was separated from his family at birth. His mother could only keep one of the twins and at the time his twin was the stronger of the two which left Forest without a family. Luckily one of the nurses had a sister in America that was looking to adopt so Forest was adopted and sent to America.
Forest was only with that family for the first four years of his life because as soon as they became pregnant with their own they gave Forest up and was sent to an orphanage. Feeling abandoned made Forest's magic appear for the first time. When the orphanage found out he had magical abilities they started using him for things that they couldn't do. They had another wizard who attended Ilvermorny during the school year and stayed with them during break train Forest so by the time he went to Ilvermorny he already knew quite a bit of magic. Forest didn't like that the orphanage used him for his magic and he especially didn't like the consequences if he didn't do exactly as they said. This has created a lot of problems for him but he is slowly trying to work through all of it so he doesn’t feel so bad about himself or the situation.
When he went to Ilvermorny he was placed into Pukwudgie. He fell in love with magical creatures during his first class and knew that was exactly what he wanted to pursue. Right after Ilvermorny he moved out of the orphanage into a small apartment and started to train as a magizoologist and a wizarding vet in America. His training went well but a few months ago he was told that he would have to move to England for his job.
Before he left America one of his old friends from the orphanage visited him and told him about a little girl with magic named Everleigh. The adults were already trying to use her for her magic and it was obvious that it was quickly taking a toll on the girl and her mental health. He went and adopted her from the orphanage and has slowly been adjusting to being a working single dad. He loves Everleigh with all his heart and would do absolutely anything for the girl. He spent a couple of weeks in the hospital after getting Everleigh due to some violence that broke out, but he is slowly recovering.
Boggart: Forest’s deepest fear used to be the adults from the orphanage where he grew up, but he realized that they don’t have any kind of control over him, his boggart has now shifted to Everleigh being disappointed in him.
Alliances: Forest hasn’t been in England long enough to have an opinion on the Black Family and their rise to power. He has been told that due to his blood status he should fear them, but he’s not the type to fear someone before they give him a reason too. While he was in America though he heard lots about Voldemort and his Death Eaters because everyone was freaking out about it and worried that it would impact them too, so he knows the hatred and fear that people had, even if in America they weren’t experiencing it themselves.
Mirror of Erised: Forest would see himself with all of the children currently in the foster home he grew up in. The owners would be paying for what they did to him and everyone else who had ever been there, especially the ones with magical blood.

Anything Else.
Forest has adopted a four-year-old from his orphanage named Everleigh. She was showing signs of magic from a very young age and the people at the orphanage were being horrible to her so he saved her from their wrath.
