LUCA D’AMORE ( HALF-BLOOD )
HOUSE: Slytherin
“Slytherin produces more than its share of Dark wizards, but also turns out leaders who are proud, ambitious and cunning.”
( + / - ) cunning, ambitious, resourceful, shrewd, determined.
Did you know? Merlin himself was a Slytherin, and the ribbon of a First Class of Merlin Order is green to reflect the wizard’s Hogwarts House.
WAND: 13 1/2″ yew wood with a phoenix core and unbending flexibility
YEW WOOD; “Yew wands are among the rarer kinds, and their ideal matches are likewise unusual, and occasionally notorious. The wand of yew is reputed to endow its possessor with the power of life and death, which might, of course, be said of all wands; and yet yew retains a particularly dark and fearsome reputation in the spheres of duelling and all curses. However, it is untrue to say (as those unlearned in wandlore often do) that those who use yew wands are more likely to be attracted to the Dark Arts than another. The witch or wizard best suited to a yew wand might equally prove a fierce protector of others. Wands hewn from these most long-lived trees have been found in the possession of heroes quite as often as of villains. Where wizards have been buried with wands of yew, the wand generally sprouts into a tree guarding the dead owner’s grave. What is certain, in my experience, is that the yew wand never chooses either a mediocre or a timid owner. ” — Garrick Ollivander
PHOENIX CORE; “This is the rarest core type. Phoenix feathers are capable of the greatest range of magic, though they may take longer than either unicorn or dragon cores to reveal this. They show the most initiative, sometimes acting of their own accord, a quality that many witches and wizards dislike. Phoenix feather wands are always the pickiest when it comes to potential owners, for the creature from which they are taken is one of the most independent and detached in the world. These wands are the hardest to tame and to personalise, and their allegiance is usually hard won.” — Garrick Ollivander
13 1/2 INCHES; “Most wands will be in the range of between nine and fourteen inches. While I have sold extremely short wands (eight inches and under) and very long wands (over fifteen inches), these are exceptionally rare. In the latter case, a physical peculiarity demanded the excessive wand length. However, abnormally short wands usually select those in whose character something is lacking, rather than because they are physically undersized (many small witches and wizards are chosen by longer wands).” *wand length is large, but not exceptionally so. — Garrick Ollivander
UNBENDING FLEXIBILITY; “Wand flexibility or rigidity denotes the degree of adaptability and willingness to change possessed by the wand-and-owner pair - although, again, this factor ought not to be considered separately from the wand wood, core and length, nor of the owner’s life experience and style of magic, all of which will combine to make the wand in question unique.” *wand is fiercely loyal and unbending to anyone but its current master, Alexander. — Garrick Ollivander
PATRONUS: Dragon
DRAGON; “One of the most powerful and formidable creatures of the magical world, dragons are ambitious and dominant. With the ability to breathe fire, they quickly assert themselves, garnering both fear and respect from those around them. They are unafraid to take risks and prefer to live by their own set of rules. They are quick to lead and do not back down from a challenge. Dragons are strong in their convictions and will stand for what they believe is right. Those with a dragon for a Patronus are sure to be fierce fighters, and the Dementors better be ready for a challenge!” — MuggleNet
BOGGART: Poverty, Isolation, & Nonrecognition
Though Luca won’t admit any fears out loud to himself, he has a deep-seated fear of losing power, wealth, and influence. As a dejected half-breed bastard with no family or home to call himself, Luca has spent immortality clawing his way to the top. And while he’s fucked his way through half of Europe and back-stabbed, stolen, and taken what he felt was owed to him, there will always be the lost and lonely child inside of him terrified of spending another winter with no name, no shelter, no money, and no companionship.
Welcome to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Luca D’Amore.
