Ethan was brought up believing that he was essentially useless. His muggle Mother was ill for as long as he could remember and his father’s magic couldn’t do anything about it, a fact that had always frustrated them both. Ethan almost resented magic until the age of 10, when his Grandmother sat him down and explained all the ways that magic had helped to save lives in both the wizarding and muggle worlds.Since then Ethan has had his heart set on becoming a healer, he just wanted to save lives and maybe, just maybe make himself feel worthwhile in the process. Healing is the perfect career for Ethan, he’s extremely clever and understanding and will go to the ends of the earth to make sure he knows exactly how something works.
Ethan isn’t the most outgoing person but he makes friends quite easily, he has an optimistic outlook on life that most find to be endearing, more cynical people see him as unrealistic. Ethan likes to think of himself as a bit of both. He is a polite yet opinionated person who will always stand up for people, whether they want him to or not. That personality trait has gotten him in detention far more times than he would care to count. As he’s found ‘opinionated’ can easily be confused for ‘argumentative’.He refuses to let anything get him down though and is well liked throughout Hogwarts as the kind of person you can trust to help you, and rely on to give good advice on almost anything, he doesn’t like to burden people with his own problems (of which he has a good few) and he’s starting to worry about how much longer he can keep everything bottled up inside.
