Appearance:
Lysander is a fairly attractive youth, generally however it is thought that Lorcan wears it better. Despite looking completely identical when side by side people generally agree that Lorcan somehow looks better. Lysander stands at 5'11 and sports a pair of vibrant blue eyes. His normally unkempt dark brown hair is kept nice and short.

Patronus
Rabbit

Boggart
"I freeze up every time I see it. He's so reckless sometimes, what if it actually happens one day?
His boggart is a vision of his parents solemnly standing over a photo of Lorcan. His mother is always crying and though his father is silent he looks truly devastated.

Personality
Kind||Friendly||Cautious||Selfless||Loyal
Lysander is quite typically a reserved, and shy individual who prefers staying in the background of most things where its safe. Despite his more reserved nature Lysander is incredibly friendly just like most Hufflepuffs. Though he may not be the first one to approach someone he is always willing to talk to others and is quite outgoing once people get to know him a bit. Lysander is every bit hardworking as any other Hufflepuff, he always tries his best, and once he sets his mind to something it is unlikely he will stop until he succeeds. Lysander is also very kind and caring towards others even towards complete strangers, he's always willing to lend a helping hand, and an eager ear to anyone in need. This especially applies to his friends, and family who he is prepared to die for if need be. This eagerness to help others however has come back to bite him on multiple occasions however as people tend to take advantage of his overly kind nature. This has lead to him becoming something of a doormat, always putting the needs of others above himself which often cause him to neglect his own needs. This tendency to put others above himself is due to large amounts of self doubt. For years he has felt as if he was in his brother's shadow, and has come to doubt he own abilities and worth. On his worse days he can appear to be nothing but a nervous wreck, always stressing over things even if they aren't necessarily that big a deal, when ever he gets like this he often needs his brother to snap him out of it.

History:
Ever since Lysander was young he had been something of a reserved wizard. He's always had difficulty making friends, despite the best efforts of his brother, and mother who often tried to get him to come out of his shell. Despite this he has always had his brother, and for as long as they can remember they have been by each others side, each one looking after the other. While Lorcan would always be at the ready to defend Lysander from anyone or thing that would bother him, Lysander has always been there to keep the impulsive Lorcan out of trouble.

When they finally received their letter to Hogwarts Lysander was as usual nervous, about leaving home. However a quick talk from his mother Luna, and an assertion that he'd be with his brother put him at ease. He was less at ease when it came to the sorting. As Lorcan was appropriately placed in the Gryffindor Lysander was certain that he would be seperated from his brother. A fear which became a reality as the hat was soon placed upon his head. The hat was torn between placing Lysander in Ravenclaw with other intellectuals or in Hufflepuff with the kind, and hardworking souls. His kindness and loyalty won out over his keen intellect however as the hat decided he was best placed in Hufflepuff.

It was an adjustment for the young Lysander, being placed in a different house than Lorcan. At first he was quite disappointed to be stuck in Hufflepuff, as like so many others he had assumed the Hufflepuff house to be nothing more than the dumping ground for less than worthwhile wizards and witches.Something only made worse by Lorcan's playful teasing. However he adapted fairly quickly. It seemed being placed in Hufflepuff was exactly the thing he needed to come out of his shell. Being placed in a house with so many friendly individuals, he had no shortage of friends, and was thus no longer dependent on Lorcan for social interaction. Needless to say it didn't take him long to become a proud Hufflepuff. Despite being placed in different houses however they have still made sure in all their time at Hogwarts to never forget about each other. As such they can still usually be found together, and seeing the two apart for much more than a day is a rare occurrence.

So begins...

Lorcan Scamander's Story

There was darkness and then burning light upon his eyes. Lysander woke up light seeping in from the window right by his bed, straight into his face, Next to him there sat a small muggle alarm clock beeping incessantly. Lysander gave a chuckle and a smile as he sat up still groggy from sleep. Apparently the sun was more effective than muggle technology, when it came to waking up in the morning. Lysander quickly went about getting dressed giving his owl Zeus who sat beside his bed a loving chin scratch. When he was done He looked over at the other side of the room and shook his head when he saw his doppleganger still sleeping comfortably. He walked over to him and looked at him for a minute. “Lorcan. Lorcan. Get up.” Lysander let out a sigh as the predictable happened and his brother remained in his bed.

Lysander gave out a grin as he put his hand on his brother and went about shaking him like he was desperate to wrench his brother from the sandman’s sinister claws. “Loony Lovegood wake up! It’s time to wake up and get ready for school! Aren’t you excited to go back to Hogwarts!”

Only Lorcan’s eyes peeked out of his blanket cocoon. The older twin levelled a blood-curdling glare at his brother, but it lasted only a minute before he broke into a grin. Sandy was always the best part of the morning time. In fact, he was the only part that made it worth waking up. Licking his cracked, dry lips he covered his face again and grumbled, ”No.” Unfortunately, Sandy is responsible and always does the right thing, so of course he wouldn’t let up until Lorcan slumped out of bed. That jerk.

Lorcan generally stumbles through his morning routine. It’s not uncommon for him to brush his hair and comb his teeth, which is not nearly as effective as it sounds. He rubbed his chin, feeling the peach fuzz that started coming in. At first, he’d thought it was a werewolf thing, but then he noticed Ly had it too. Either way, he said it made him look cool, rugged and all the other adjectives girls would use to describe a manly man. It didn’t, but he sure thought it did.

Glancing around his [incredibly messy] half of the room, he huffed a little as he said”Man, why didn’t you wake me up earlier? I forgot so much stuff!” Lorcan didn’t so much forget to make as he just didn’t want to do it. Despite all the fun and friends he has at Hogwarts, it’s not something he looks forward to.

”Well you just looked so comfy I didn’t want to wake you. Also I just woke up like fifteen minutes ago. Also I told you to make sure you were finished packing what was it now twenty times? You should listen to me more often Newtoo” Ly chuckled slightly as he went about finishing his morning routine. Fifteen minutes later and his teeth were sparkling, and his hair was combed to be neat and orderly just the way he liked it. He cast a quick admiring glance at his shelf of prized muggle contraptions. A toaster, a blender, a walkie talkie, all of them completely random, but all too interesting to the young boy. Much more interesting than the beasts the rest of his family obsessed over. Not nearly as cute though. Lysander walked over to his brother all too confidant in his twin’s abilities to wait till the very last minute. ”So how much have you packed so far? You need help?

”No!” Lorcan declared. After a short pause, he added a sheepish, “Yes… Mostly, I need help finding my books. They are somewhere around here.” Lorcan picked up clothing one piece at a time to search underneath it. Eventually, he dropped on all fours to search under his bed. ”Oh, wait. I found them.”


An hour later while at the train station, Lorcan felt a familiar buzz in his pocket, a smile lit up his face as he saw the group message with his two favorite non-siblings. Though, they annoyed each other enough to be blood.

Lysander looks over his brothers shoulder for just a minute. Noticing he's texting Frank and Lucy he immediately suspects that he'd be sitting without his look alike on the train. Frank and Lucy were nice people but they were more Lors friends than his. He let out an internal sigh at the prospect of not riding with Lorcan before resolving to try and find James instead. He pulled out his phone and quickly texted James.You at the station yet? James though exasperating at times had certainly more than earned his place as Lysander best friend not related by blood. Though as far as Lysander was concerned James had practically become his other brother. And besides it would be a shame not to see him on his final train ride to Hogwarts.

Lorcan sent off a quick reply to Frank that he was just arriving. He looked up to his brother with a sheepish grin, but was pleased to see he was texting friends of his own. ”We should probably get on the train soon. I hope you won’t mind if I sit with My Losers?”

Without waiting for a reply, Lorcan gave his brother a tight hug and a wide smile. ”Thanks! See you on the other side!” The older twin jogged toward the train, keeping an eye out for either of the two faces he wanted to see.

Lysander shook his head playfully at his brother just before being pulled into a tight embrace. An embrace which he eagerly returned. As his brother jogged off he let out a wave. I’ll see you back at the castle! Enjoy the ride with your friends! With that Lysander went his own way. The hunt for James had begun as Lysander made his way to the train, glancing down at his phone every so often, and keeping his eyes peeled for his friend.
