Backstory

(Older Student) Nobody ever said it would be easy to be a Ravenclaw in his fifth year at Hogwarts. I come from a pureblood family of Gryffindors, so when I was sorted into Ravenclaw the pressure was on to be top of my year! My best class is Astronomy, but even without the coursework, I have spent most of my life gazing up at the night sky. I like Care of Magical Creatures and Herbology because of all the hands-on work. Or as I call it “hands-off-the-quill-work.” When I’m not studying you can probably find me playing Chess in the great hall, though losing might be a more accurate description.
