richard auburn 🕯 quick intro and facts. . .
summary. . .
Richard is a hufflepuff student who has a very high aptitude for herbology and potions, herbology being his truest passion in life. Although he is a half-blood, he was raised as a muggle in the streets of London, though he always experienced peculiar occurances despite this, particularly related to fire.
It was on his 12th birthday that he discovered he had innate incendiary powers, those which could be conjured without a wand, and at times uncontrollably so. This incident left a scar on his life, both mentally and physically, due to it indirectly resulting in his father's death, aswell as permanent burn scars upon his hands and face. Due to the severity of the scars on his hands, he is required to constantly wear gloves enchanted to numb the pain, though he himself would describe this numbing as rather a "dampening" of pain.
The destruction that fire causes is one of the main reasons for his passion in herbology, the growth of life which acts as a foil and overcomes that of fire. The prospect of fostering beauty, life, and growth within nature, compared to the all-consuming, beckoning, bellowing demon of fire that lives within him. Needless to say, it comforts him a great deal.
