The best word to describe the boy would be 'brilliant', and in fact this is the first word that pops into the minds of the people that know him. Stephen craves knowledge beyond anything else; if he doesn't learn something new every single day then he considers that day utterly wasted. As expected, he is that 'one kid in class' that everyone dislikes because he always has the answer for everything, and on the rare chance that he doesn't, he knows exactly where to look for it. Intelligence is what he prides himself on, quite frankly because he cannot see any of his other good qualities. He yearns to be the person who knows everything about everything, who can master any skill he chooses to put his mind to. This sometimes leads to his inevitable failure, because he sometimes forgets that he can only do so much in the time that he has.
Giving up isn't in his nature; if Stephen puts his mind to something he will not rest until said task is accomplished, and accomplished perfectly at that. To say the least, he is a perfectionist. Everything has to be done a certain way, everything has to look a certain way, and if it does not it will torment Stephen to no end. This also sometimes leads to failure for him, for he puts so much time and effort into a task that he cannot even finish it in the time he is given.
He is the type of person that cannot stand being around too many people for too long, for he already drains his mental batteries so much himself that he cannot handle other people doing it as well. He is not one to be seen out much after class or on the weekend, unless he happens to be spotted at the library, which is where he practically lives. His timidness and lack of well executed social skills prevent him from being able to create friendships, so he would much rather read about other peoples' friendships in novels.
As one can expect, anxiety plays a bold role in his life. It prevents him from doing the things he wants to most: making friends, talking to girls, having spontaneous adventures. Because everything in his life has to be planned right down to the smallest details, he doesn't know how to leave his comfort zone. Because of his fear of abandonment he can be rather possessive when it comes to the ones he loves, especially when it comes to their attention. Of course this is something that he is well aware of and he does try to keep it under control.
He has a grim outlook a lot of things, simply because he does not wish to get his hopes up only to be disappointed. Most of the time he does keep his opinions to himself though, because if anyone knew what he was actually thinking they would certainly not want to socialize with him.
Stephen often feels alone even in a crowded room; and while his mind prevents him from doing something about this he is slowly attempting to crawl out of his shell to finally accomplish the most important things in life: finding other people to spend life with.
Of course because of his father, Stephen found out about wizardry and magic at an early age, but because he takes after his mother, for the longest time he attempted to avoid any talk of the subject. He found it hard to believe that such stuff could exist, even after countless proof from his father that he does. Thoughts of being discovered are what most likely led to his anxiety (which he still battles today), and when he got his acceptance letter from Magnus Grexx it only made his anxiety worse.
However, after much convincing from his father and even his mother, he decided to give it a try and attend. During his third year he was an exchange student and went to study at the German wizarding school, and also went during his fifth year. In his final year, he is a Prefect for Ferre house and still attempting to figure out why he got placed in the house to begin with.
