Amortentia:
Through Amortentia, Anatole smells parchment, spearmint and chrysanthemums.

Boggart:
Anatole's boggart used to be a spider. One of those horrible giant ones with the midgy body yet huge spindly legs that you find in weird places like on walls and stuff. Then it changed into his wife, stone cold and pale, telling him how much she hated him and asking why he never saved her. Lovely, right?

Patronus:
Anatole's patronus is a bat, surprise surprise. I know, very fitting for an astronomy teacher as they both prefer the night and are practically nocturnal. However, it's not just that reason that Anatole's patronus takes this form. Bats are obscure and wise creatures, as well as peaceful and revengeful. In other words- they have a double nature.

Strengths:
+ Astronomy, obviously.
+ Messing with people's heads
+ Surprise- he has the occasional nice moment. You wouldn't expect that now, would you?

Weaknesses:
- Competitive
- Cynical
- Kind of cowardly.

Personality:
Anatole probably isn't what you would call the most friendly of people. He's loud-mouthed, opinionated and has been known to have a short temper. He's probably one of the stricter professors at Hogwarts, believing that rules were there to be upheld, and that students should respect and fear their teachers. He can also be quite sexist, repeatedly voicing his views on how women should not be allowed to educate children, or anyone for that matter. We'll leave that at that, otherwise we'd be here all day.

Anatole has little patience, especially in the case of Godric Gryffindor. We're not entirely sure why, yet there's always been this sort of mutual disagreement between the two.
As for good qualities... well, he's not shy. That's one thing. Anatole is exceptionally confident, if not overly confident. That's the problem with Anatole. Some of his qualities are both good and bad, depending on the eye of the beholder. Rowena once said that 'he was a good astronomy teacher. That was his one redeeming quality.' So at least we know that he's capable in his job. That's something good at least.

Anatole has blue deep set eyes.

Height:
6'3".

There's not really much to say. Anatole works out regularly and can probably count as muscular because of it. As long as he's not fat, he's happy.

The second tallest person in the castle, sadly an inch shorter than Gryffindor. Aside from that, there isn't really anything.

History:
Yes, before you ask, Anatole's personality has always been this crap. Anatole hails from Barnsley, in South Yorkshire, England. He comes from a pure blood family and is an only child. Nothing really happened for the first nineteen years of his life, then he got married. I know, I know. There's nothing really exciting here. Yet here's the thing- his wife was a muggle. As you can probably guess, this was uncommon as magic was persecuted even back then. And who knows how a muggle'd react if they find out? They'd either take him seriously and he'd be dead, or appear insane. Neither options particularly sound good, do they?

For these reasons, Anatole never told her and as a result was happy for a good amount of years. Then, for lack of better words, shit hit the fan. Somehow, someone found out about the magic in the household. The only thing was that they assumed that it was the wrong person. They blamed the wife. And then they burned the wife, Anatole unable to do anything about it.

A year later, he was approached about teaching Astronomy at Hogwarts. And he's been there ever since.
