Look here, what Do you see? Are You Looking Forward to Get Tangle Up in Me? FULL NAME Charles (Charlie) Gabriel Valdez AGE & BIRTHDAY Seventeen; August 3, 2007 OCCUPATION Seventh Year Hufflepuff BLOOD STATUS Muggleborn / Bitten Vampire FACE CLAIM Tyler Posey WAND TYPE 11 ¼”, Unicorn Hair, Alder PATRONUS Penguin PETS Jynx, a grey Tabby cat ABILITIES Vampire Tell me who you are, I'm sure you're some kind of superstar. Free Style Charles, preferably Charlie, was born in Wales to a woman who had been deeply in love with Charles' father. The man had been essentially a deadbeat who couldn't and wouldn't take up his own responsibility of helping care for his son and two daughters that his mother had with the man. Charles was the oldest and often remembered his father coming around occasionally but he was never there. He'd never been around during any of his times when Charlie needed him to be around. Charlie is six years older than his oldest sister, Anne and ten years older than his youngest sister Elizabeth. His mother enjoyed formal names to say the least. The boy grew up helping raise his sisters. It was hard when his Victoria had to work while taking care of her children. Not having anything to do with dear old dad after Elizabeth was born. Childhood was hard for Charlie but he learned to live without things that were normal. Most of his clothes had been purchased a size too large for him so he could grow into them, they were also purchased pre-owned. In fact he can't ever remembering getting a brand new pair of pants or a shirt in his entire life. Anne had been raised in the same way and Elizabeth got all of Anne's hand me downs. Charlie had been home schooled as a kid and self-taught himself pretty much everything he knows about writing, math, reading, he even had a good hand in teaching Anne a bit as she got older who in turn taught Elizabeth. It was a helping hand type of raising and something that they had to learn through each other. Their mother had still been there it just was them always helping out. There were things though that had been a little strange, things that as a child he just thought he'd imagined. Things that were abnormal such as things getting moved or something turning on or off when he was upset. Things that were going to explained when he was older. Only a year after Elizabeth was born and Charlie was eleven years old a man in rather strange costume came to their door. He asked to sit with both Charlie and his mother so he could talk to them. He explained that Charlie was special, he had powers, something that made him eligible to go to this school. It was called Hogwarts and he was going to go off to a school for people who were exactly like himself. Purchasing the things to go to school was most incredible. He got a magic wand, it was the first thing that was his. The first thing that he owned that hadn't belonged to someone else before he had it. The clothes that his mother purchased for him were all secondhand just like the ones before. He was so very much in love with everything. In his letter he was told he could bring a pet but his mother could not purchase one for him so he went to school without one. Riding the train to the school, it was kind of lonely. Charlie had never gotten to know many people other than his own family so strangers wasn't exactly something he was ready for. He sat in the train compartment with three other young students, two of which knew each other but he had sat there reading a book. They asked him questions that he did not know the answer to. 'What house do you think you'll be sorted into?' 'What class can you not wait for?' How could he answer such questions? He could easily just spew and answer but they probably would have known he was wrong. It was time to get off the train and they rode in boats across a lake. Boats? At a magic school? This was strange. A professor met them up a staircase and took them to a room full of older students. The Great Hall and they were going to be sorted into their houses. This was all very shocking. What if the sorting hat didn't like him? What if he'd traveled all this way and they didn't want him? Would they just send him home to live out his life the way he had always done?Well he could go home and help take care of his sisters more. That was one bright side if the school rejected him. But no one stood up there and sat under that hat and got rejected. When they called him he was near last. He stood up and sat under the hat and it was a simple decision. The hat told him that he was a loyal person someone a friend could always count on, but he'd never had friends, only moments later the hat told him that he was a perfect fit for Hufflepuff. The young boy hopped down off the stool and sat down with the table that had clapped when the hat shouted out his house. First year was nice. No one in his house made fun of him for being strange, or having secondhand clothing. No one thought he was a bad person. In fact he made friends. He was happy with this. These people were nice and enjoyable to be around. Slowly he warmed up to these people and by the year's end he was not even remotely ready to head home. But he did and his mother was there and welcomed him with open arms. He realized then that he missed home, he missed his mother, and his sisters. The school years only got better from there. He made great friends and finally when he became of a working age during the summers he went and got a job. He just worked in a small grocer and he helped pay for everything he needed. This upcoming summer would be his next summer working at the job. He was saving his money to help his mother out. He had always wanted to help out his mother. She was a constant in his life. The one person who had always tried to make his life better. This past summer when they went to get his school books he proudly exchanged his own hard earned money into Galleons and Sickles to purchase his own books and other things. He even bought himself a beautiful grey tabby cat that he ended up naming Jynx. He was so happy with the pet that he got. Now as the school year came to an end he was so very ready to see his family again and hopefully get into his seventh year at Hogwarts. Now he is about to live a very different summer especially that he is of age. During his sixth year, a whirlwind of events had happened which made the now seventeen year old a vampire. During a dance in the previous year, while Charlie was on a date with his then girlfriend, he went to help take care of his best friend's girl who had the voice of the boy who never liked him. By the end of the night, Charlie was almost dead, and his friends believed that he actually was. He'd been taken up to the hospital wing where a few days later he'd awoken to an extreme hunger. It took time getting used to and he still has yet to have the guts to tell his mother about what had happened. He spent Christmas with his best friend, Icarus, and has been trying to get back into fitting into normal. Let's us all just be friend, And together we can start a new trend.
