Charles Danforth

"Sometimes learning requires a good joke"

0 · 273 views · located in Harry Potter Universe

a character in “Orenda Academy of Witchcraft and Wizardry US”, as played by Mr. Baneling Squishy

Description

Charles Danforth
Image


Age: 45
Class: Enchanting and Dueling (various forms, magical and non magical, such as swords).
House: None in particular, though he prefers those form his former house, Vulpes.
Wand: Elderwood, with some fairy dust.
Patronus: A Boar.
Pet: A black dog named Pepper.

Personality
A fun loving teacher, he tends to encourage his students through jests and jokes, as well as silly threats (some of which he has been known to do, such as turning their underwear into chocolate or causing their pens to jet ink into their faces) to those who misbehave. He is a bit harder on anyone who is not from Vulpes, and who he has had a family member in his class before. He teaches things from swordplay, to enchanting weapons, to magical duels, to magical dueling while using a sword. Although they can be used against the Dark Arts, most of his dualing lessons are meant for actual dueling between Wizards, as he will almost never teach a spell capable of great harm or long term incapacitation. He also has a great tolerance of jokes and pranks against other students in his room so long as they do not cause great harm or create a large interruption.

History
Born 45 years ago, his parents were both magical, and both very strict, and thought he was constantly stupid and a failure. Therefore, he became in love with jokes, learning, and succeeding, to constantly prove them wrong and make them proud. However, one day they were murdered by another Wizard who was never caught, he was then raised by his aunt, who was magical, and uncle, who was not. However, he was already old enough that his parents were the ones who shaped him.

He went to Orenda's and was part of the Vulpes house, which he found to suit him well. He was especially fond of dueling and enchanting, finding all sorts of objects to enchant to do various things. And dueling, it was both thrilling, and generally not life endangering while also teaching you how to defend yourself. He would later return to teach these very same things to the students, including one Daniel Avarus, older brother of Max.

Charles Danforth:

Charles was busy getting everything he needed for his classes this year. He had gotten most of it, he just needed 100 Enchanted Swords to add to the 200 he already had, and of which he only had 90 that he got today. And he had been going to stores everywhere. For some reason, someone was buying up enchanted swords by the hundreds. All he wanted was ten more.

Finally, he had found a side shop that was selling enchanted swords. He got ten more, and some additional things he could use.

Shopping was not the most exciting thing. In fact, it bored him. But, he needed the swords for some really fun lessons. Plus, the students always found flying swords exciting, and to be honest, so did he.

He also got some fireworks, firesparks, firecrackers, enchanted violins, and finally, he picked up some mail, opening it. Inside one of the letters was his student roster. "Hmmm, not often I get first years in my class....oh, I recognize this name. Max Avarus. His brother graduated last year...looks like another Avarus is taking his place. Interesting".

He then proceeded to get some crystals, because crystals often were useful to use in enchanting. Then, he would go and get his classroom ready...

At the school...

Max Avarus:

Fear. He felt it as he saw this giant, intimidating place. So when Eden found him and asked about being nervous, he had to admit he was. "Yeah, kinda afraid. But my dad always said that in order to be brave you have to be afraid. So, I guess in a way, going through this despite our nervousness and fear means we are brave". He was trying to be as comforting as possible, plus at the moment Eden was his only friend here. He thought about his brothers friends, maybe connecting with them, but for now, one step at a time.

"So, what is your wand made of? Mine is Dragonwood and Whale Bone core". He honestly hoped they got into the same house, because then he would have someone to talk to. As he looked around, he noticed the school seemed to be built around a lot of old ruins and structures, until he realized much of it was connected to the school. "I heard about this. During the civil war, a large portion of this place went into disrepair. I heard the halls are magic, and occasionally shift and change. Not to mention all the secret passages built. Apparently, it's believed whole rooms, and even entire wings are undiscovered. Maybe we could find one, and find something really cool".

Max had a bit of an adventurous side, he had to admit. He might study hard, work hard, and be trouble prone, but he had to have some fun.

The trip continued onward as they headed towards the dining hall. "Hey, no matter what, even if we end up different houses, we are friends. Agreed?" He just hoped they would, to make it easier. However, he also hoped to get into Aquila, to not disappoint his parents. However, as they entered the dining hall, he found his name being called up first. "Wish me luck".

He still felt the fear as he walked up to the cup, but he kept repeating his own father's words. You need to be afraid to be brave. So it really shouldn't have surprised him that he was sorted into Aquila, which is known for bravery. Now he was just hoping Eden would join him, as he took a seat in Aquila with an open spot next to him.

Charles Danforth:

He watched as the sorting began, having safely stored his things away. It came as no surprise Daniel's younger brother followed in his footsteps. He wondered how this year would go. Probably peaceful and uneventful.
