I made a new ref for him after I thought some things out :)
Alonzo Augustine Damion is an overconfident jerk to put it plain simple. He will never miss the opportunity to prove someone wrong or go face to face with someone he disagrees with. He has a habit of getting into a lot of fights so unfortunately he has a bit of a record of getting into trouble ultimately making him Mr. Filch’s first suspect when something goes wrong. That however doesn’t deter him from having fun around the castle or outside in the forbidden forest.
Growing up, he’s never really had anyone or a group of people he could confidently call his friends, mostly because of his attitude and he knows it. He can’t help being defensive and he doesn't really know why (not yet anyway). Alonzo likes to keep those he deems resourceful near him, sometimes playing along with other people's schemes to get closer to them. However, when he ends up spending time with certain people repeatedly (sometimes against his own choice) he begins to actually enjoy their company, which is where he genuinely ends up being friends with them. He is fiercely loyal to those he cares about, willing to do just about anything to keep them safe, no matter how dangerous.
Some other things/facts :D
Alonzo absolutely loves birds! When he was younger, his mother and him would go out for walks, simply enjoying each other's presence. On these walks his mother would softly sing songs and whistle some bits catching the attention of a few birds nearby. Sometimes the birds would sing back parts of the song and even land near them. This is Alonzo’s favorite memory that he has of his mother and holds it very dearly to his heart. (This actually becomes the memory he uses to cast his patronus)
He sometimes gets insecure about the house he’s in, knowing that he possesses few to none of the qualities of a Hufflepuff. He knows he doesn’t fit in with the rest of his house members and he tends to feel like a bit of an outsider, even more so considering the reputation he has. He sometimes wonders why he’s even Hufflepuff instead of Slytherin.
To narrow it down better, Alonzo is overconfident in not his appearance or physical attributes, but rather his magic skill. Therefore when he loses in a duel (repeatedly) or fails at a simple task he begins to question his own skills and become hard on himself during study sessions. ‘I’m not going to sleep until I cast this spell perfectly. I have to.’
At a young age, Alonzo’s mother became absent from his life due to unknown reasons. This led to him hating his surname “Augustine” and resenting his mother. He knows deep down however he can’t bring himself to genuinely hate her. He grew closer to his father in the following years and began following in his footsteps, adapting new core beliefs that changed him a lot.
He can speak Spanish! His mother comes from Guerrero, Mexico and I am still debating on his father hmmhmh- He has a lot of extended family in Mexico so in the summer he goes back for a few weeks to see them. Funny enough when he gets really upset or mad he switches between both English and Spanish so sometimes he can’t even get the words out and he yells out jumbled obscurities.
