Description

:bulletred:Name: Orion Chronos Leventis

:bulletred:Sign: Taurus

:bulletred:Nationality: Greek
:bulletred:Age: 17
:bulletred:Year: 7
:bulletred:Personality:

-A bit of an introvert.. he doesn't like big crowds and prefers the company of a few close friends rather than a horde of acquaintances (but he understands some friendships take time)
-Quite stubborn, but can be swayed with enough evidence or convincing
-Life>Material things
-Persistent. If he wants something he will keep going until it is quite obvious he will not get what he wants. But even then....
-Very reliable friend, classmate, etc. Doesn't like to let people down.
-Favors stability - if he has a problem with someone, he's going to voice it so the world will be in balance again.
-Sentimental.
-Pretty patient and actually quite gentle, but not a fan of overly flamboyant/boisterous personalities.
-If frustrated, will throw a hissy fit.
-Loyal to those he considers worthy.
-Upon finding an opening, he enjoys a little playful banter or teasing with others.
-Can't really take a joke if it's mean/disrespectful (contrary to part of the teasing game as stated above). May retaliate on another level. 
-Resourceful. He's usually pretty thrifty as well - if he needs something, he can usually find or make something else to work for the purpose rather than making a purchase.
-He can be a bit romantic at times ;)

:bulletred:A little history:

Orion grew up in a modest home on the beaches of Mykonos in Greece. His parents were never very affectionate, especially his stern father, but he loves them nonetheless. His mother showed signs of favoritism toward him - leaving his sister, Eurydice, to get attention almost soley from her sibling. Eurydice could often be found running through the white streets, playing with magical creatures in the valley, or diving to gather fascinating plants under the water with her brother. They were inseparable.

Orion was persuaded by his mother to try and live up to his father's standards and become a top-of-the-line Auror like the rest of the men in the family (the ones who are recognized as family anyway..), but Orion was never interested in the defensive forces. His passion lies in medicine. However, to keep in his father's graces Orion kept up his studies with a tutor, keeping his father under the illusion that one day his son would step into his father's shoes. One morning while Eurydice and Orion were out playing in the valley with the wild Nogtails, he was called back to the house. He thought he would only be gone for a moment, but that was the last he saw of his sister because next thing he knew he was being shipped off to a school far in the North. His father was determined for his son to have the best education he could get and sent him straight to the Durmstrang Institute when he came of age. This lasted for quite a few years... 6 in fact. But Orion didn't like where his future was headed and pleaded with his mother to let him steer his own path despite family tradition. His single close friend at school advised him to be who he really is and strive for his goal to become a healer. He revealed to his parents that he was never going to be an Auror, even if he received the job offer. When he neared the end of his 6th year, their resistance crumbled and they allowed Orion to choose his own school. His father was very displeased and he doesn't let go of a grudge very easily, so their meetings are usually pretty tense...

Of course, he immediately transferred to Hogwarts - where his sister resides. Orion's mother plans on visiting her children once every semester in Hogsmeade. She was disappointed in her son, but she knows she will be proud when he becomes a "world-famous healer" (her words)- and she was happy he got into the same house she had been sorted into. Though his childhood was not filled with loving hugs and kisses, his mother's approval of his goals was practically equal.
