where to even begin with these.Â
he’s missing two fingers (pinky and ring finger) on his left hand. he jokes that’s why he was never married. contrary to the hundreds of stories as to how he lost them, he was born without them.
he grew up on a dragon reserve in rural victoria, australia, so he’s got countless scars from various cuts and burns and bites and other incidents.Â
he lost his right arm a few years after hogwarts when a feral lethifold broke into the dragons’ habitats one night and he got caught up in the scuffle between the beasts.Â
he lost his left leg below the knee in his third year of teaching while defending a student who was being threatened by a hidebehind after venturing into the forbidden forest on a dare.
he’s got plenty of other scars from fifteen years of mostly saving careless students from injury. most recently, a grindylow nearly took out his eye at the beginning of the school year and he got to wear a badass eyepatch for a few weeks while it healed.
