But your PERSONALITY is who you are

OVERVIEW ;; Noel is proud and can be a bit of a jerk sometimes, but it's not as genuine as it seems. When he's around people he considers friends, he can be an absolute sweetheart. If he snaps at you he'll come back immediately after and apologize for it. He's a gentleman when it comes to girls; he'll hold doors open for them and hold chairs for them, but that's as far as he chooses to go with them, since he's gay. He won't get annoyed when girls flirt with him, but he will make it clear that he's not interested and will show them the claddagh ring he shares with his boyfriend as a signal that he is taken.

Noel outright refuses to join the Dark Lord like his father; he doesn't understand blood purity and tends to look at talent over blood lines. His father was his biggest influence on this, and the one that made him decide he didn't want to go down that path. His attitude towards muggles and muggle-borns changed mostly because he realized how silly it was to think he was better than anyone else because he was a pure-blood. He still holds minor prejudices, but he tries to keep from expressing them since he knows they stem from ignorance.
LIKES ;;
- Music - "I've played piano and guitar since I was little and my mum is a Muggle music fanatic so I learned early. Mum wanted Renee and I to have a hobby."
- Singing
- Butterbeer
- Shopping - "I usually go with Tyler, my mum or my sister. They stopped having to drag me when I turned 12."
- Hogsmeade - "I love Hogsmeade and I always have. It's always been one of my favorite places to spend time."
- Quidditch - "I'm Reserve keeper on the Slytherin house team. I originally tried out for Chaser but the spot was taken. I don't know if I'm going to pursue a career in it, though."
- Tyler - "More like I love him. Ty and I have been in each others lives since we were both put in Slytherin at eleven so we know each other so well it's like we're related. He's more than my boyfriend, he's my best friend as well."
- Renee- "My baby sister. Well, we're two years apart but she's still the baby. Aside from my boyfriend, Renee is the most important person in my life. She hates it, but I am pretty protective of her."
DISLIKES ;;
- Homophobes - "Obviously, I'm gay so people who hate gays will usually be on my dislike list."
- His father - "I have no idea what happened, we used to be so close. Now, since I came out and started dating Tyler it's so strained between us that we barely talk."
- People messing with Renee - "Quite simple, don't screw with my sister unless you like being hexed."
- Girls hitting on him... makes him uncomfortable
- Death Eaters - "I have three death eaters in my family: My aunt Genevieve and my uncle Matthias, as well as my cousin Christopher. I have suspicions that my father is one as well. I hate them all."
- The concept of blood purity - "I just... don't... get it. My family has pounded it into my head that purebloods are better, but I can't for the life of me figure out what makes us better than any other witch or wizard."

AMBITIONS ;;
"My first goal is to marry Tyler. We've been together for two years and I love him so much it hurts. I can't wait to spend my life with him. Also, I want to make sure my mom and sister are safe when I'm not around. Renee is only 14, so she's got three years in Hogwarts left so I want her to be okay."
FEARS ;;
His Father: Noel is deeply scared of his father, mostly because of the man's alliance with the Dark Lord. Noel has a suspicion that he is a death eater, but the fear of him stems from how he reacted when Noel came out as gay and the way he treats Noel and his sister, who he is very, VERY close to.

Losing Tyler: There have been some rough spots, mostly involving their families, but Noel and Tyler have been together as boyfriends since fifth year and they're strong. Still, Noel is very protective of his boyfriend, mostly due to the other boy not being pure-blooded and his father being a blood purist. One of his biggest fears is losing the boy he loves.

Finding out his father is a death eater: He has some idea of how his father affiliates, since he knows really well how the old man feels about muggleborns. But the idea of his father being an active death eater scares him, because he knows the man wants him to follow in his footsteps, and Noel is nothing like his father.

SECRETS ;;
"I keep my true relationship with Tyler a secret from my father. Ty's a half blood, but Dad's never really liked him because he thinks he's a distraction. Bull, I know Dad disapproves of me being gay, I know if Dad knew Tyler and I were as close as we are he'd try to separate us however he can. I tend to keep my father's family's true affiliations secret. Not well, since anyone who knows the Fosters well knows that most of them are into the Dark Arts. I know there are people in my family that are death eaters - my uncle Matthias and Aunt Genevieve sport the dark mark, as well as my cousin - but I've got suspicions about my father as well."

And you can't leave your HISTORY in the past

[/center][/size]
FATHER ;; Peter Foster, Death eater, works in the Ministry of Magic.
MOTHER ;; Vanessa Foster, Healer at St. Mungos
SIBLINGS ;; Renee Foster, 14, Slytherin 4th year
HOMETOWN ;; Bristol, England
BIRTHDATE ;; December 20, 1979
HISTORY ;; Noel was born on December 20th to Peter and Vanessa Foster (nee Hart). His mother was a pure-blood American witch, having attended the school in Salem, Massachusetts when she was a girl. His father was British, and was an alumni of Hogwarts, also having pureblood parents. When he graduated, he moved to Washington DC and worked for the American equivalent of the Ministry of Magic as a British ambassador. They married and returned to Britain in 1977, and in 1979, Noel was born. He was the first born, and was his parent's pride and joy. His sister was born two years later.

Noel's first signs of magic showed when he was around 8 years old. He and his sister were climbing trees outside of their home. He was careless and fell out of the tree, but when his mother ran to him to check if he was okay, he was relatively unharmed; turned out he had actually bounced when he landed instead of breaking any bones. Another incident of accidental magic happened when he was turned his nanny's hair green when she annoyed him. His parents knew what was happening and explained to Noel what was going on. It wasn't long before he realized he was a wizard; he knew all about them thanks to his parents.

Noel received his Hogwarts letter when he turned 11 and was sorted into Slytherin. His sister was sorted into Slytherin two years later. Noel was excited to go to his father's school, but wasn't thrilled with being sorted into Slytherin. Not thinking he was better than anyone else, he preferred to stick to his housemates or study alone rather than cause trouble. He is into Quidditch and played as reserve Keeper on the house team briefly in his fourth year, and for a while that was his whole world. He became a prefect in his 5th year so he juggled schoolwork, Quidditch and his prefect duties, as well as keeping his grades up, then dropped Quidditch for a while to focus on studying. He passed his OWLs and is now working on studying for his NEWTs. He met his best friend Tyler, a fellow Slytherin, in their first year and they were soon inseparable, spending as much time together as possible. Noel finally admitted that he liked Tyler before their 6th year and they've been together ever since.

He realized he was gay when he turned 14, which didn't please his father much when he admitted this. Noel and his dad weren't really as close as he hit his teen years; he was pretty much the black sheep since he wasn’t interested in the Dark Arts or in following his family in that path. Noel had always had some idea of his father's alliance to Voldemort, but only when his old man started putting pressure on him did he realize he didn't want to be like his father. Noel's father is a blood purist and a follower of Voldemort through and through, and was expecting his children, especially his son, to follow that path, marry and continue the line. He got into an argument with his father over the expectations held over him, and Noel knew he'd never win his father over. They became strained to the point where they stopped talking to each other. His father wasn't abusive physically, but he outwardly did not approve of his son or of his attitudes toward the Death Eaters or his refusal to join them. He hates the idea that his son wasn't following the plans he had set in place. Noel is just trying to get through his last two years in peace.

RP SAMPLE ;;

Meeting Salem while he was checking out the community college in Maple Creek was one of two things: Serendipity or sheer dumb luck on his part. Noel was going to chalk it up to sheer dumb luck, because he hadn't imagined he'd even like the place. Noel was only touring this college because his dad was insisting on it; there was apparently a very good law major that he was expected to sign up for, even though Noel had made it crystal clear from day one of his senior year that he'd rather have relations with a cactus than be an attorney like his father. Luckily, Noel's dad wasn't accompanying him this time, so he was able to check out the music department and the majors offered. That's when he met Salem.

They met, talked, and exchanged numbers. Noel thought he was cute, he was definitely nice enough. They'd been texting on and off for a few days, and Noel agreed to meet Salem at Snap. His mom was excited that he'd gotten a date, but naturally his father pretty much outright ignored his son except to say shit about him. Something Noel was used to; he didn't talk to his dad unless he was required to lately, and most of the time he refused to respond to his immaturity. After Noel walked his dogs (and managed to distract his Golden mix Izzy from running into a tree by the house for the 80th time because it looked at her funny) he showered, got dressed and grabbed his car keys, kissing his mother good-bye as he started to leave.

Parking in the lot, Noel made his way into Snap, sending a text to Salem: "I'm at the counter if you're looking for me." He pocketed his cell phone and stuck his hands into his jacket pocket, waiting for his date. He had to admit to himself that he was nervous; this was his first date in a while. He was just glad that he and Salem hit it off. He just hoped he didn't do anything stupid this time.
