Amortentia:
Pepper, Nutmeg and the smell of Christmas stuff when it’s been in the loft/attic thing for a year. Weird, huh?

Boggart:
As downright strange and stupid as it may sound, Amos' boggart is himself being eaten. One day he just so happened to walk in on the family cat killing and eating his sister's pet mouse, and the sight has pretty much stayed with him throughout the years. When you think about it, there are a lot of animals that'd gladly try to eat you...

Patronus:
Amos' patronus takes the form of, of all things, an otter. Otters are known for their playful nature, as well as their curiosity, which makes it actually quite fitting for him. They are also known for their mischevious nature and helpfulness.

Strengths:
+ Care of magical creatures
+ Lying
+ Patience
+ Amos is quite talkative.

Weaknesses:
- Herbology
- Poor memory
- Short attention span
- He's a crappy flirt.

Personality:
Amos has to be one of the easier characters for Haine to try and describe. He exemplifies the Hufflepuff qualities of loyalty, tolerance, and fair play, while failing in others such as hard-working; Amos is probably one of the biggest procrastinators that you will ever meet.
Amos also exemplifies the stereotypical qualities of Hufflepuff, being a general nice guy, optimist, not to mention laid back. Yet he won’t stand it if you try and push him around. Even Mr. Tolerance can only take so much.

Being a prefect, he obviously is pretty good where behaviour is concerned. The same can't be said for most of his friends. Amos believes that if he didn't see whatever idiotic thing they've done (or pretended not to), then it musn't have happened and therefore there's nothing to be done about it.
Seeing as he has occasionally joined his friends in whatever idiotic thing they were doing, Amos' custom works quite well.

Although being a prefect can get to be pretty damn boring, Amos likes the power that comes with the job. There's nothing that he likes better than being authoritative and he has a lot of pride (As well as an ego...), even if it has gotten him into a spot of trouble every so often. As you can probably tell, this also makes Amos one of those people that hates to be proven wrong.

From an early age, Amos has been exceptionally curious, if, once again, it has gotten him into trouble occasionally. Life is just seen as a series of adventures, no matter how mundane some of them may be. Time and time again he has been told that curiosity killed the cat, yet seeing as he is not a cat, Amos really can't see what the problem is. Can you?


a p p e a r a n c e

Hair:
Amos' hair is a sort of chestnut brown in colour. It's one of those styles where it's never usually messy or perfectly tidy, yet some wierd place in between the two. His hair cuts off just below the nape of his neck.

Eyes:
Amos' eyes are an icy blue, which seem to contrast and stand out from the rest of his features.

Height:
5’11”

Weight:
156 IB.

Build:
Amos isn't really what you would call muscular and has little interest in working out. He still likes to keep fit, though.

Unique Features:
Hrmmm.
He doesn't really have any.
Sometimes Amos can be seen wearing glasses, due to being short-sighted. Yet that hardly counts as a unique feature.

Family:

Mother: Lucy Diggory (~Nee Collins), 42, Healer, Muggle-born
Father: Amos Diggory, 43, Obliviator, Half-blood.
Brothers:
Sisters: Maggie Diggory, 20, Department of magical transportation
Susan Diggory, 11, Gryffindor first year

History:
Amos was born in Liverpool, in the North west of England. He was the second child of Lucy and Amos Diggory, and to his misfortune was named after his father. Because seriously- what kind of name is Amos? Would you name your kid Amos? Honestly?
As you can probably guess, Amos does not like his name at all. Years of getting called ‘Amy’ would do that to a guy.

Being the middle child, Amos felt that he didn’t get as much attention as his sisters did, growing up. If his parents weren’t awing over something that little Susan did, they were dealing with Maggie, who was apparently going through one of those ‘funny patches’ that girls have every so often. He wasn’t particularly bothered by all of this, as while his parents were being so busy, Amos became a bit more independent and had many adventures in which he learnt that he did not like brooks, animals or pretty much anything that wasn’t solid ground or human. This may be one of the reasons that Amos hates to fly. Or it really could just be, as he so often insists, that it’s really just because he’s crap.

As every story on here concludes, Amos eventually started to show signs of having magic, got his letter, went to Hogwarts and ended up in Hufflepuff, which he’s been doing quite alright in so far. Hell, things must’ve been going well as Amos even ended up a prefect. How this happened, he has no idea. But it did anyway.

And that should bring us roughly up to date.
:]

- Clingy
- Lots of make up

Turn Ons:
+ Loyal
+ Good sense of humour
+ Smart is kinda sexy.
+ As weird as it may sound, he’s one of those people that like girls that have no interest in him.

Secrets:
* Ok, so he's a trekkie...
* Amos has issues with bad grammar and spelling mistakes. Try not to mess up with these when near him.
* In fourth year Amos 'borrowed' his older sister's diary and still has excerpts from it, for blackmail purposes.
*He likes to cook.

A note from Haine;; Yes, I do know that it's impossible for Amos to be marauders era, when you look at dates. It technically would mean that Cedric was born when Amos was seventeen, which I don't really think happened. But really, it's a magical rp world, so let's not worry about these things. Mmkay?
