The 27 year old Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry Potions Master and Head of Slytherin House.
Vincente Valtieri is a man that most people would describe as frightening upon first introduction. Although a youthful age of 27, quite possibly the youngest teacher ever walking the halls of Hogwarts, Vincente only smiles when presented with something that amuses his sinister sense of humor. Punishments against Slytherins are rare, while Griffindors are quick to lose House points to his snappy temper, with Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs faring no better.
Vincente has a snake named Saffron, a brightly colored boa constrictor with an unusual star shaped pattern on her forehead. Although the infamous Parseltongues have all but disappeared, rumors abound that Vincente can communicate both verbally and telepathically with Saffron.
