Roan's seemingly natural affinity or athleticism, coupled with the persistent nagging of his parents, have motivated him to the extent of maintaining an impressively brawny figure. It's not too obvious through his apparel as he is still on the slimmer side — not to mention that he's about as physically intimidating as a puppy — but no one can deny that his muscles are solid and well-defined, or that he doesn't put a hell of a lot of work into keeping them that way. There aren't too many surprised reactions when Roan explains that he's a beater for Hufflepuff's Quidditch team, for which his strength and stamina give him an edge.

• Singing — his most prevalent life passion, currently second only to Quidditch but will likely surpass it after graduation — (example of voice)
• Bilingual — English & Korean
• Stoicism — he's gotten pretty good at keeping his emotions from reaching the surface, and often uses this skill to avoid trouble or conflict

• Father — the persistent fear that his father is nearby and watching everything he does is one that affects every aspect of his daily life.
• Indecisive — he doesn't really know what he wants or how he wants to get there because so much of his life has been decided for him thus far
• Secretive — his truths and his feelings are well-hidden, but they eat away at him

Roan struggles to understand his own emotions at the best of times and tends to push everything he doesn't want to deal with to the back of his mind, for the sake of maintaining his own sanity. He was never given much room to experience life and emotions of his own accord since everything was always decided for him. While he's certainly grown as a person since arriving at the school, he's still very much a product of the environment in which he was raised, and the fears instilled in him by his parents often push him towards certain self-destructive behaviours. Above all else, he's an aggressive over-achiever, and the competitive attitude he held as a first-year remains intact — it's just focused less on academic pursuits and more so on Quidditch. He's sensitive to failure and can experience emotional lows when he feels like he doesn't quite have a grasp on his social life, but there are very few people he feels he can talk to about this, so he bottles everything up.

His father certainly felt some relief when his magic first developed, but Roan wasn't quite sure how to feel. Suddenly, the 'muggle' studies he'd devoted so much of his time to didn't seem to matter, and were quickly replaced with an overwhelming flurry of information about Wizardry, Hogwarts, and all the wonderful classes he would be able to take there. The most prevalent of his father's topics was Ravenclaw, as apparently Roan was descended from a long line of them, and no doubt he would be placed there also. He'd been taught that Ravenclaw were the academics; the smartest in the school and the most likely to achieve great things in later life. Roan didn't know any better, and had no reason to believe that his father would be lying or embellishing the truth of it.
When Roan first arrived at Hogwarts, he did so with a bit of a superiority complex. An ego that his father had created and carefully nurtured over the years, before throwing him into a world that had no place for it. He considered himself more than worthy to compete amongst the intellectuals of the school, but more than anything he just wanted his parents to be proud of him, so it was quite a shock when the Sorting Hat called out Hufflepuff; the house he'd been led to believe was little more than a glorified 'unsorted' section, full of useless cowards and morons. In Roan's mind, he was destined to sit at the top of the pecking order, but had somehow been placed at the bottom.
He had protested with all the energy he possessed, to whoever would listen to him. He wasn't supposed to be there, he couldn't possibly be anything other than a Ravenclaw, it was in his blood. That's what he'd thought. It angered him that no one seemed to be taking him seriously, and that anger only swelled when his father refused to speak to him. He was bitter for a long time and didn't exactly have the best reputation in the school, especially among his fellow Hufflepuffs. However, as per his life-long habits, he spent almost all of his free his time absorbed in his studies. He was still determined to give any Ravenclaw a run for their money, and hopefully regain his father's faith, but he was in a low place emotionally and remained completely friendless for much of his first year. That was until a certain group of people latched onto Roan and, with annoying levels of persistence, kick-started the boy's redemption.
It was a slow process, to be sure, but he came to appreciate that Hufflepuff was more than what he'd always been told. For the first time in his life, he was surrounded by people who were fun and driven. Nowadays, there's nowhere he'd rather be, and he's determined to enjoy every moment of his final year.
