Personality:
Terry is a good natured boy with a big heart. He likes to help people and work with others whenever he can. However he is not a very confident person when he does not have support systems around him. In an overtly social situation he is likely to latch onto someone he finds he has similar interests with and befriend them. He can develop close relationships very quickly because of this. Though he creates relationships quickly that has nothing to do with the quality of the relationships. When he finds a friend he is good at becoming a very close friend to that person quickly. He has a very approachable personality as he’s usually quite happy and content. This makes him the kind of person people enjoy being around.

He is a supportive and loyal friend in every why he can be. He always puts others first and makes a point to be a good friend. He is a good listener and loves to help with puzzles and problems as best as he can. He’s also got an odd but fun sense of humor. Sometimes what he finds funny can be difficult to unravel to find a meaning in, but when you get it there is usually something funny to be found. He likes to make jokes and make people laugh in any way he can but he has a sarcastic tongue and cheek humor. He holds the idea that when people laugh the world gets just a little better.

Terry can also be very protective and has a lot of fight in him. When he gets close to someone he is likely to do all he can to keep them happy and safe. That can sometimes get him into trouble. Though when he is the subject of anything he is likely to be passive, when it is one of his friends or someone he loves or considers a good person, weather they know it or not. He is likely to jump to their aid. He is not afraid to get physical if it means the protection of the people he holds in high regard. His first response is usually to try and fight with his words and his usual strategy is to outtalk the person and confuse them. However when and if this is not possible and the fight comes to blows, he will usually watch the person and strategize how to hit their weak points. It often gets him into trouble when he fights and gets caught. He will usually not tell why he started the fight if asked. He will just sit there quietly; he is not going to say what happened because he feels they should have left him to handle it. He honestly believes he can handle his problems completely alone.

Overall history:
When Terry was little his dad ran off from the family. It didn’t bother him; he was a baby and could hardly remember. However when he was six his father pushed his way back into their lives. It was a hard time for him and his father did a lot of yelling during that time. He once go frightened his older half-sister his him in her closet to keep him from crying too loud and rousing his father from his arguments with their mother and incur his wrath. That’s when he got close to his sister. From then on he would create his world around his older sister whenever she wasn’t at Hogwarts. She was a lot older then he was though as she was only his half sister. When she wasn’t around she was left with his father and his mother. That was when he would start to run to his mother. His mother was a neutering and loving source for him who taught him how to protect his loved ones. One day when he was watching her he made a deal with himself. As soon as he was big enough his father would never get away with yelling at his mother again.

Terry’s best memory of his life is of the day he got his letters for Hogwarts, Durmstrang, and the Salem Witch Institute. When he got them his entire family went out to celebrate and for the first night in 5 years his father turned down alcohol and his family laughed and joked happily like a real dream family. That night gave him hope for the first time since his father came home.


Terry never grew close to his father, he only ever saw him as the kind of person who would attack and destroy. Imagine Terry’s surprise when he turned 11 and his father suddenly wanted to become his best friend. He let his father try hard and didn’t inhibit the work but he didn’t help it along either. It was only a month after that that he got his first Hogwarts letter. At the same time he got one for Durmstrang Institute and The Salem Witches Institute. It was then that Terry understood his father’s insistence on befriending his son. His father wanted to show off his son to the Durmstrang people whom he had gone to school with as his own hard work because even his father knew he was talented and smart. At the same time his mother wished he would go to Salem Witches Institute because she wanted him to go to a neutral school as she had gone to Hogwarts. He read up and did studies on each school after his mother asked him to go the Salem Witch Institute as he had studied only Hogwarts because it had been his dream school since he was young.

In the end he choose Hogwarts against his father’s wishes and his father started on his mother again, this time insisting his mother had used Hogwarts propaganda to undermined his decision and said he would make the decision for everyone and Terry had lost his choice. Terry instantly fought back in his own way as he had never wanted to go to Dermstrang. One day his father made a mistake. He’d decided to pick a fight with Terry’s mother in front of him and Terry instantly jumped in and fought his father. It lead to a bigger fight and by the end Terry’s father hand was over his head in a threatening manner until Terry’s mother jumped in. Instantly his father was thrown out by his mother, for a night at least. That night Terry got yelled at for disrespecting his father but he felt better about himself. The next day His sister came home and they went out to talk. He told her about it and she was so proud of him. She was also ecstatic to hear that he was going to Hogwarts, as she had just graduated a few years before and was in post Hogwarts training for care of magical creatures at the ministry.


Terry came to Hogwarts and was sorted into Ravenclaw. It wasn’t really a surprise fro anyone, he was smart and a good study and held his cleaver wit in high regard and thought that everyone should have a good amount of knowledge. His mother had been in Ravenclaw too, even if his sister had been in Gryffindor it made total sense. There he became friends with Michael Corner on his first night there at the table. Michael and he were in the same year, same house and they became best friends quickly. As the years went on he made several friends which has helped him through his times at home. He and his father fight at least once a break and so far there has only been one exception. For almost a year Terry had been hearing about “my dearest Jacob”. His last break before summer Clara brought Jacob home and introduced him to the family. Terry Just stood suspiciously looking Jacob over continuously and Terry’s father didn’t like that Jacob meant an interruption of his usual schedule and finally Terry and his father agreed on something they didn’t like this new addition.

Over the weeks Terry spent time with Clara and Jacob and learned to be ok with Jacob but he still didn’t trust him until almost the last day. After a while Terry’s father couldn’t take the interruption to his life and took it out on Terry’s mom. That was when Terry bit back with his usual cutting wit. He was being backed into a corner though when Jacob and Clara walked in and Jacob took it on himself to jump in and help Terry and his mother and sister. From then on Terry decided the boy was ok, as long as he kept like that. He was still cautious and protective of his sister but they started to become friends. Sadly Terry left the next day but his sister said that if Terry wanted to write Jacob he could attach it to one of his letter to her and she would deliver it. Since Terry and Jacob have been writing back and forth and they have started to become friends, as long as Jacob behaves himself with terry’s sister.
