| Vito Brando 30
January 13th Owner of Brando’s custom wands and other magical objects Ravenclaw/Hogwarts halfblood (presumed pureblood) Knockturn, London-UK | PERSONALITY: please write a brief paragraph describing your character's personality.
A serious and tidy business owner, Vito prides themselves in the items they create and sell. They like to add a little flair to everything they do. Someone could easily describe Vito as both calm and collected while being extra at the same time. It is as if they never really share their true thoughts or goals. Being more of an observer than a participant, Vito prefers to stay out of trouble as best as they can. While they can be deadly if they want to, Vito keeps up the facade of being unable and unwilling to fight. Well the unwilling part is correct, wouldn’t want to screw up a nail now.
By many people Vito is considered selfish and greedy. They’re very much content being on their own which mostly is the result of their live experiences. Their cat named Dog is very much the preferred company over humans but that doesn’t mean they just shun out everyone. It’s just that you should never expect Vito to show vulnerability.
They pretty much dedicated their lives to their family shop which they pretty much made their own after inheriting it. Once a shabby looking shop is now decorated with dark polished wood, purple velvet and silver linings. Several art decorations hang in the shop which go hand in hand with the beautifully decorated wands and magical items. While they usually are made to order stuff, there are some display items. Growing up in poverty, Vito has a rather unhealthy relationship with the money they do earn. They aren’t very likely to share their small and hard work for wealth. Often they come across as wealthier than they really are. As the Knockturn reputation still gets in the way of attracting the big cash. Not to mention traditionalist purebloods don’t like being seen in their shop.
LIKES/DISLIKES:
Likes: wine, their cat named dog, the colour purple, gemstones, jewellery, pretty clothes, money, scented candles, butterflies & moths
Dislikes: people, difficult customers, the fact that their adult magic item line is more popular than their wands as it started out as a joke, unorganised stuff, the Ministry, being vulnerable
ASPIRATIONS:
To one day be considered the to go to wand shop instead of Ollivanders.
