Please, not Dammy.
I,
Never thought that I was so blind,
I can finally see the truth,
It's me, for you.
Tonight,
You can't imagine that I'm by your side,
'Cause it's never gunna be the truth

Likes:
-
-Walking.
-Herbology.
-Potions.
Dislikes:
-Heights.
-The dark.
-The Marauders.
-The fact he is always expected to have an answer.
Amortentia:
The first smell is very weak, and smells of tulips, as that’s the type of flower his mother always kept on the windowsill in the kitchen. The second smell is the smell after it rains, as it is a fresh and clean smell. The last smell is Apple Pie, which is his favourite food.
Boggart:
His boggart is the dark. He has an irrational fear, and feels vulnerable, even though he can always light up his wand. It’s stupid. Or, so he feels.
Patronus:
His Patronus is that of a Border Collie. They are hard working, and loyal. Damocles has both these traits, and his Patronus certainly reflects him.
Strengths:
-Herbology.
-Potions.
-His smarts.
-His height, he feels.
Weaknesses:
-Painfully oblivious.
-Charms.
-Easily distracted.
-Reads into things. Like, way too much.
Personality:
Ah, Damocles. Where can we start? He is…Damocles. He is caring and loyal to those who are his friends, and, pair that with the fact he is quite accomplished in the way of magic, you shouldn’t pick on him or his friends. He is reliable, and will always keep a secret. He is also worrisome. More to the fact he’s afraid someone will find out about his orientation. He is quite studious, and you will always find he’s already done those essays.

Hair: “Brown, a little past ear length. What else can I say?”
Eyes: “They are dark brown, almost black. Nothing remarkable.”
Complexion: Clear. He spends time keeping his face clear. Occasionally, he breaks out, but nothing too bad. He has the odd freckle.
Height: “A nice, round Six feet.”
Weight: 155 pounds.
Build: Damocles is tall, with some muscle. He doesn’t play Quidditch. This is more the fact he doesn’t just laze about, and when the weather is nice, he swims in the lake.
Unique Features: None, really.
h i s t o r y
Family:
Mother: Cassandra Belby. Former Ravenclaw, Pureblood. Damocles is very close to his mother.
Father: Julius Belby. Former Ravenclaw, Pureblood. Damocles gets along with him. Just.
Brothers: Octavius Belby. Hufflepuff, one year younger. Alright relationship. “We’re very different.”
Sisters: None.
History:
Damocles was born to a Pureblood family, who had very strict opinions about right and wrong. Thankfully, they weren't Pureblood Supremacists, but the Belby family went back a long way. It wasn't long until some of the more unsavoury families were wondering why the Belby's were so...unmoved by muggleborns.
Anyway, back to Damocles. He was a quick learner, and his mother adored the fact that he'd keep her company while his younger brother and his father would play Quidditch.
He had a private tutor throughout his young childhood, and showed complete understanding of most subjects. He was destined for Ravenclaw, as his parents thought. Then came his letter, and then the Sorting, which of course put him in Ravenclaw, with his new found friend, Benjamin Fenwick. They'd had one encounter, where the Marauders had been poking fun at Benjy, and Damocles stood up for him. Benjamin and Damocles became fast friends, so the fact they were in the same House was good for them.
He quickly proved the Sorting Hat right, along with most Ravenclaws. He showed knowledge, and his homework was in on time with few mistakes. He especially excelled in Potions and Herbology, which pleased him, for he soon decided he wanted to be an Apothecary when he was older.
