Brody O'Callaghan

((What he'd look like from years 5-7, also portrait pack photo))

((What he looks like from years 1-4))

Basic Info:

Age: Relative to year

Year: Currently first

House: Slytherin

Place of Birth: Dublin, Ireland

General Appearance:

While not overly slender, he is far from a muscle-head. With ever shaggy dark brown hair, and charming emerald eyes, he is often found with a grin half the size of his face. He never goes anywhere with out his tattered and patchy backpack and his charcoal black fedora. While few would notice, he often has several smaller pouches tied firmly to his belt. Another odd fact would be that even at the age of eleven he has black and green tattoos, in the shape of Celtic warrior bands around both forearms. Every now and again he can be spotted lugging around a worn leather hard shell guitar case.
Notes on his overall personality:

The ever cheerful and optimistic Brody would seem like an odd fit in Slytherin, at first glance. But those who look a little harder would find him to be rather cunning and ambitious, whether he is playing guitar and singing on the corner of Diagon Alley for tips, or arranging devious scam games or other sorts of illegal activities, one thing is certain, He'll do almost anything to make a galleon or two. He is also known to say whatever is on his mind, however inappropriate it may be. Combined with his irish accent and angelic voice, he can be rather sly and charming.
Family Heritage:

Father: William "Freight Train" O'Callaghan (Muggle)

Mother: Tessa O'Callaghan (Witch)

Notes on his family:

William was born and raised on the streets of Ireland, he grew up hard and mean, for a short period of time was an illegal bare knuckle boxer, until he became to punch drunk to compete. He spends most of his time drinking, and knocking around his wife. A rather cruel and horrible father figure, Brody does not seem to mind him, even if he gives bad advice and views, or makes him play guitar for booze money.

Tessa, native to Ireland, she attended Beaxbautons Academy and is also half-veela, making Brody a quarter Veela to which he owes all his musical, singing and charm to. The reason why she married William, and puts up with his abuse is rather unknown. She managed to smuggle Brody away to Hogwarts with out William knowing. She seems to be the only positive influence on his life, and possibly why he is so cheerful.

His Guitar:

Brody plays an acoustic guitar, it is kept in pristine condition unlike most of his possessions. And for good reason, it's a rather expensive guitar, A Gibson 1942 J-45 Legend worth over nine thousand dollars. It is his most prized object, in which he has named Isabella, or other wise refers to it as his "Babe" or "Baby". Rumors about how such a poor kid obtained such an expensive guitar ranges from theft to gambling.
