Generally dresses well, his mothers taught him to always be presentable, though he does tend to slip up a lot. More content to be comfortable than dressed to impress. Oversized sweatshirts, hoodies, t-shirts - you name it and he wears it. Usually in the muted neutral spectrum of colors. He isn't completely blind to fashion trends but he doesn't try to follow them closely. He prefers his long sleeve shirts to anything else. For the most part, he just goes with what feels right at the time.

Quite handsome, and he knows it - though he rarely does anything with that information. He's got that dark hair that rarely can be tamed and even darker eyes that express so well what he's feeling. While he isn't the tallest, he also isn't the shortest and in fact often towers over most people. With deep tan skin, and built to be slim and somewhat gangly with a foals steadiness. Though it can be noted that he does in fact stay in shape, and lifting as many heavy tomes as he does on a regular basis certainly helps him maintain a certain strength. As he can be somewhat distracted by his own thoughts he is often clumsily running into things and people, resulting in quite a few bruises and scrapes at any given time.

Too smart for his own good sometimes, hell, maybe even all of the time. To the point of coming off as a know it all asshole if he's really wound up about something. But he doesn't try to flaunt his knowledge all the time - he simply likes to learn, and to share what he learns with others. He can't very well help it. He can just get so overexcited at times and babbles like a brooke because of it. Some call it endearing; others call it annoying.
He would honestly rather spend his time reading or studying than running around and socializing but he isn't a recluse by any means. He is perhaps one of the more easy friends to keep, as he has low expectations and can go weeks without speaking and still be okay with picking conversation right back up where it left off. He is easy going and laid back, a go with the flow kind of kid who doesn't really see a reason to get uptight. Miscommunications are rare with him and he is always up front about who he is. Low maintenance basically. Though his loyalty isn't the brand that will have him fighting someone else for a friend, he will stick by that friends side no matter what.
Even during the more stressful times at school, with upcoming tests or the likes he will still be the same unmovable and calm person. Though his ability to time manage and juggle several tasks at once probably has something to do with that. He is adept at multitasking and has an unbreakable focus that can sometimes be seen as him spacing out. He is constantly thinking about whats next to do on his very long list of things.
Casper is also a drama free kind of guy and prefers to stay on the sidelines when it comes to other people and their wild emotions. Though he has been known to make friends with troublemakers he does not condone their acts and will not play along with them. And he outright refuses most times to even remotely make friends with those who prefer prejudice over an open mind.

H I S T O R Y
Born to single mother Natalia Fairsail, a muggle woman whose boyfriend failed to disclose that he was a wizard, and then also failed to stick around for the birth. She struggled hard with the idea of children at all, but her religious upbringing prevented her from doing anything about it. So she buckled down and gave birth to Casper. The first few years were fine if not somewhat financially hard on the both of them. She didn't ever quite connect with him the way a mother should with their child - and maybe that's what made what she did later so much easier.
Because as Casper grew so to did his latent magical abilities. Invisible at first, as most children's abilities are - but steadily aging with him. Until one day she began to notice these strange things. Casper was six, and things weren't right with him. Natalia could tell this much, though she had no idea what exactly was going on. Eventually, somewhere in her mind she began to think of him as something else entirely. A monster that could make things happen with his mind, a demon, a changeling. All of these things forming together in her already screwed up narrative. She became hostile with him, defensive and angry with outsiders. Something had set upon her mind - a deep sickness that caused her to harm him for what she couldn't understand that he was.
It culminated into one fateful night, locking the both of them inside their home and pouring gasoline on every surface. She said that this was her penance for bringing evil into the world. And then she lit the match - Casper doesn't remember from there how he got out and she didn't. He just remembers her, holding that match and screaming wildly about their sins.
He was swept through the muggle foster system for quite some time before anyone in the wizarding world caught wind of his existence. And then came the Lockwoods, swooping in the save the day. A pair of witches that already had a daughter of their own, though she was born a squib. The Lockwoods were nice, though Myles took a while to warm up to either of them being that his only experience with women had been his mother and her heavy hand - but he eventually grew out of his fears and loves his family just the same as if they were biologically related. He's only a little skittish nowadays, and has mostly put Natalia in a tucked away corner of his mind.
It was a rather huge shock when he was told what he was, finally, a name could be placed to the strange things he was capable of doing. Wizard, he was told that is what he is. His mothers were supportive once he received his letter and more than happy to indulge in his every whim when it came to all his supplies and books he would need. Casper's first few years in school were normal, full of learning and socializing with his peers. He never really fit into one singular group but rather found himself drifting amongst many different people.
