CHRISTIAN LEON
"Bad people are not born......they are raised."
John and Miriam Leon, two Puerto Ricans, already had one boy, Julian. And though Miriam had a daughter from a previous engagement, Lilia, John wanted a daugter of his own. So it was, that on a cold December day (in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania US) , Christian Leon was born, two months earlier than expected, to disappointed parents.
Because he was born so early, he was merely three pounds. As a baby he was all but neglected. His mother, in fits of rage over his crying, would shake him, sometimes even suffocating him for small moments at a time to shut him up. His father was merely indifferent towards him.
As he grew to crawl and walk, seeing him as now even more burdensome, his parents cuffed him to his crib where'd he'd sit for hours, trying to move freely.
Christian did not even learn to speak sentences untl he was near four years old, when a concerned aunt finally stepped forward to compel John and Miriam to move to California and take Christan to school.
The result was a child who could learn not only quickly, but quicker than those even older than himself. He quickly learned to read and write and surpassed his class. Numbers also came easily to him and he quickly grasped addition and subtraction.
As his parents devoted their attentions to the whims of their elder son, Julian, who divulged all his time to sports, Christian devoted all his time to learning, reading not only comic books(which he loved), but even finding interest in textbooks.
Christian never grew to be large nor impressive in terms of physique, but he excelled at his studies. Though he was short and somewhat thin, he and Julian often played together and as a result, he was not without shape.
Christian was often forced to clean after the rest of his family. Because of his mistreatment at the hands of his family, Christian grew to be bitter and mistrustful of those closest to him. And though he can genuinely smile in the faces of strangers, for he gives them the benefit of the doubt, he also keeps a distance due to his past. If provoked Christian can be highly vengeful, and with his intellect, his revenge often comes in the form of well thought, cold, and calculating plots. Christian, due to his low self esteem, believes himself to be an ugly person.
At ten years old on a warm July day, a letter came in the mail. It sincerely apologized that an incident forced some school in America to close temporarily and that instead, Christian was invited to a special school of witchcraft and wizardry, Hogwarts.
His father, though he loathed the idea of magic, was all too happy to be rid of his disappointment. Likewise his mother.
