Owl/Pets/Familiars: He has one white puppy named Calladora.
Place of Birth/Current Residence: He was born in Suffolk. England.  Since he graduated Hogwarts, he moved to Bath, England and was living there until recently when the restrictions on Muggleborns, like him, were greatly increased. He was fired from his quidditch position just because of his blood type and was forced to move into Grimmauld or face the chance of being used as a lab animal or just shipped off to Azkaban.

Patronus: His patronus is of a dove, a symbol of peace and harmony.
Boggart: His boggart is seeing any of his family members or friends hurt or murdered.
Mirror of Erised: If he looked into the mirror of Erised, he would see a world without prejudice or war. He would see a place where everyone could get along with everyone and live in harmony with one another. He is a very peace loving person and hates the way the world is, with all the fighting and scare tactics.

Political View: He is very much against the current political regime and the Death Eaters. He finds their policies very narrow minded and the way they prejudice against Muggleborns and halfbloods make him sick. He speaks out as much as he can, as is evident by the underground anti-Ministry/Voldemort newspaper he puts out once a month and the degree to which he speaks his mind. Despite having moved into Grimmauld he still tries to put out his paper though putting it out once a month can be a challenge given his circumstances.  Aaron won’t let them shut him up completely just yet.
Allegiance: Order member
Sexuality: He doesn’t see the point in restricting it to just one gender.  He will fall in love with who he falls in love with and the gender does not matter to him.  Though to this point, he has only dated females and that was only two others at that.

Personality: Aaron is probably one of the most caring, patient person you would ever have the pleasure of meeting. Aaron is a type of person who will there to listen to you when you are upset or need a shoulder to cry on. He is a really great listener and tries to offer up advice when he thinks you could use it.  Aaron rarely raises her voice and to this date, he has never yelled at anyone who he felt did not rightly deserve it. He is very caring and loyal and will always stand by his mates to the end. He would do his best to keep his friends safe and make sure they were okay.

He is a very serious person when it comes to his work and things he is passionate about.  His passions include writing his monthly newspaper, working to bridge the huge divide between the ‘elite purebloods’ and the not privileged. He also loves flying and has never lost his love of quidditch and flying as is evident by the fact that he is a backup seeker for the Tornado’s and was on the Hufflepuff quidditch team during school. 

Aaron will flit between being very serious and caught up in his work and being very lazy and feeling like he doesn’t want to do anything at all.  He can get discouraged or frustrated when things do not go the way he thinks they should.  Aaron has a very quiet and calm way about him and sometimes you need to tell him to speak up since he has a tendency to whisper.

As contrast to his seeming peaceful, hippy aire he gives off, he is also very outgoing, loves to joke around and spend time with his friends.  He can be shy around people he doesn’t know and some people may take his shyness as arrogance but he really isn’t.  He can be seen as a pushover because of the fact he hates conflict and will do anything to squash any fight or squabble. He really isn’t and will fight very hard and speak his mind when he feels he needs to make a point. He can be overly cautious and has to really think things threw before he does them.  This can be a bad thing when a quick, snap decision is called for. He does not like people telling him what to do or what to believe in. He can get very defensive when this happens and will just dig his heals in even more.

History: Aaron Silas Summerby is the oldest of three children born to Julia and Daniel Summerby. He was born on a windy October 1^st afternoon in a small home in Suffolk, England. His family never had a lot of money and was in the lower class end of things. His father worked at a factory and his mother worked as a waitress and a maid just to make ends meat. Both her parents were muggles and never even knew there were wizards or witches, beyond what you would read in children novels. His parents worked so much that he rarely got to see them. He ended up raising himself and his two younger sisters, Jessica and Miranda. 

He was a very protective older brother and became their father figures since his father has to work extra hard just make enough money for them to eat and for the small home they lived in. They were so poor that there was only two bedrooms, one for his parents and one for Aaron, Jessica and Miranda. They each had a bed though the living quarters were quite cramped, even with the bunk beds they had. Aaron wished that things were easier for the lot of them. There were many times where they would not have enough money for food and would go days or weeks without any money.  At a young age he learned how to become a pickpocket and would steal money or beg for it on the streets. He did feel guilty for what he was doing, but it was either that or starve. 

It was not until the age of 8 when he started showing magical powers. He was feeling upset one day and in a rage made all the lights in the house turn on and off.  His sisters were frightened and his parents were shocked at this development.  But slowly as the years went by they learned to accept the strange abilities of their son.  He didn’t even know that there was a school for people like him until he got the letter from Hogwarts. He was cautious at first and did not want to go to another school than his sisters, who both ended up not showing any magical powers.  But after some convincing from his parents he ended up going.

Once at Hogwarts he promptly got sorted into Hufflepuff because of his just, hardworking and loyal ways. He was a bit shy and awkward at first but slowly started to make friends.  His first good friend he ever made was with Cedric Diggory.  Cedric opened his eyes to the joys of flying and quidditch. So it was no surprise when he tried out for the team in his forth year.  He started out as keeper but was switched to seeker in his Seventh year, after his best mate’s death.  He tried to stay out of the way of most people and delighted in working behind the scenes. He didn’t have a lot of friends, but was really close to the ones he had. Aaron, tried to be friendly to everyone he met and was rather put off by the nasty ways of some of the Slytherins.
