40 July 31, 1980 HEAD AUROR GRYFFINDOR HALF-BLOOD DEVON, ENGLAND
| PERSONALITY:
Harry Potter, as a teenager, is brave, loyal, and deeply compassionate, though often burdened by the weight of his responsibilities. His defining trait is courage, as seen in his repeated willingness to face danger head-on, whether battling Voldemort, standing up to bullies, or defending his friends. He has a strong moral compass and feels an obligation to protect those he cares about, even when it puts his own life at risk.
Despite his heroism, Harry is not without flaws. As a teenager, he is often impulsive and prone to anger, particularly when he feels misunderstood or treated unfairly, like his frustrations with the adults in his life for withholding information.
Harry is also driven by a strong sense of justice, which can make him stubborn, sometimes refusing to follow authority if he feels it's wrong. His experience of growing up as an orphan with abusive relatives makes him yearn for belonging, and this manifests in his deep bonds with Hermione, Ron, and later, the Weasley family. Harry's resilience is remarkable; even after facing great personal loss, he remains hopeful and determined to fight for what is right.
As an adult, Harry matures into a more level-headed and thoughtful individual. He remains courageous and selfless, but with greater wisdom and patience. His experiences during the Second Wizarding War shape him into a more introspective and empathetic figure. He balances his role as a father and husband with his career as an Auror, dedicating his life to preventing the rise of dark forces. Harry’s moral integrity remains unshaken, and he continues to value loyalty and friendship, but with less of the impulsiveness of his youth.
His post-war life is marked by a desire to ensure that future generations do not face the same dangers he did. Though he's still burdened by the trauma of his past, particularly the losses of loved ones, Harry does not let this define him. Instead, he uses his experiences to guide his actions as a protector and father. He grows into a calm, steady presence, offering guidance to the next generation while ensuring his children, particularly Albus, are given the freedom to forge their own paths.
In both his teenage years and adulthood, Harry's defining qualities are his bravery, loyalty, and unwavering commitment to doing what is right, tempered by the wisdom and patience he gains through his trials.
ASPIRATION:
Though Harry already sees himself as an old and accomplished wizard who had done in three decades what other wizards hadn't done in their entire life time, (Destroy the most powerful Dark Wizard in history, become the Master of Death, fulfill a prophecy that might have saved the world as we know it) there is still a lingering feeling of wanting to do what he can before the new blood take over.
Harry, aside from wanting to see his children live good, fulfilling lives, now wants to make a lasting change in the Ministry, by working within the system to overhaul a Ministerial system that victimized not only him, by hundreds of people because of prejudice. He's thinking of starting this by applying for his old post as Head of the Auror Office, in order to make actionable changes within the department. | LIKES:
- Quidditch: Youngest Seeker of the Gryffindor House in Centuries and married to one of the Holyhead Harpy's player. Is there any doubt Harry would not like Quidditch?
- Spending time with his family and friends: Being raised in an environment that's not conducive to filial love, Harry values quality time with Family and Friends, understanding the fleeting nature of time and how one can perish in a flash, he insists on keeping his family tight knit and close to one another.
- Defense Against the Dark Arts: From his young age, Harry had shown an uncanny skill at Defense Against the Dark Arts, indeed, one can make the argument that aside from Love, this is what helped him save the entire world from Voldemort. Little wonder this persisted to his adulthood, seeing as he works as an Auror who constantly has to display great skill at Defense Against the Dark Arts.
- Auror Work: To no one's surprise, the Boy Who Lived thrived at being an Auror, enjoying the satisfaction of knowing that he's making the world a better place with each Dark Wizard he helps put behind bars in Azkaban.
- Leadership: Though hesitant in his childhood, having to lead Dumbledore's Army and being the lynch pin in the resistance against Lord Voldemort, not to mention taking a leading role in hunting down the remnants of his Death Eaters after his demise had made Harry comfortable with the idea of leadership. Right now, Harry thrives in positions of leadership and doesn't shy away from responsibilities.
DISLIKES:
- Dark Arts: Given that he spent half of his life being hunted down by people who are synonymous with the practice of the Dark Arts, and given the fact that he's an auror, Harry isn't at all keen with anyone who expresses an interest in the Dark Arts, and is firmly against this type of magic.
- Dementors: Even in his adult age, Harry still has the primal fear of Dementors (Or fear itself) and seeing these foul creatures still trigger a primal fear and hate in him as much as it did when he was younger.
- Blood Supremacy: The Boy Who Lived, a Half Blood Wizard, was friends with a Pureblooded Wizard who's a proud blood traitor, and the brightest witch of her generation, a muggleborn. He has personally seen what that destructive ideology has done to the world and to good people, and so he's definitely not a fan of the ideology nor the people who espouse it.
- Political Corruption: Given his experience with Cornelius Fudge, and of course, Umbridge, Harry had a deep seated dislike for Ministry Workers who use the bureaucracy of the Ministry to further their own agendas. And given that he's now working as an Auror, Harry does everything he can to make sure no one who's a borderline obstructive careerist gets close to a position in the Ministry.
-Bullies: Harry, due to his experience with Draco Malfoy in his youth continues to dislike those who use their perceived higher station or better skills to harm other people weaker than them. Even to this day, Harry dislikes the idea of his children having to deal with bullies at Hogwarts. |
