[CHARACTER.PERSONALITY]

FAVORITE CLASS: Transfiguration

LEAST FAVORITE CLASS: Herbology

HOBBIES: if you'd count flirting as a hobby, it would definetely come first place. He enjoys jogging and swimming; he's not a team player sort of guy, and from that doesn't play Quidditch much being too apt to cheating or getting bored halfway through. He actually likes lessons and learning -- he's really intelligent, although sometimes he makes it seem not so, and homework would be almost a hobby for him, although he wouldn't admit it. Learning languages; he speaks several. He can play piano, because he was bored when he was eleven and decided to learn it. He doesn't really play much now but if he comes across a piano he'll take it upon himself to show off. Showing off's kind of a hobby of his, too...

LIKES: Seb likes being better than anyone else. That's his main aim in life. If he's not better than everyone else at everything, it thoroughly upsets him. He likes girls -- he likes girls very, very much. He likes charming them and chasing them and snogging them and having sex with them. He likes custard a lot. It's his favourite food -- although he's not quite sure it counts as a food. That being said, he likes eating basically anything under the sun, from custard to cabbage to ice-cream to chicken. He likes being multi-talented. He likes being rich, although he doesn't really realise how much he depends on it. He kind of sees it as the way things are, and is generous with his money; however, if he lost his money, he'd definetely not have a clue what to do.

DISLIKES: He hates when people think they're better than him. Hypocritical, definetely, when he finds himself superior to everyone else but it's just how he is. He dislikes when people think him a terrible person. He thinks he's a bad person, but he doesn't consider himself terrible. He hates it when girls appear unattracted to him. It really bruises his ego. His pet peeve is discrimination; it irks him because he thinks it's so stupid. He doesn't understand it.

GOOD HABITS: Very hard-working; he plans to get all O's and nothing will get in his way to achieve that. He grooms himself well -- hygenic. He's a family guy. He might take the piss out of his sister, parents, and cousins but he loves them very much. He wants more than anything to be extremely successful after Hogwarts, and really doesn't want to have to depend on the family name to get him there.

BAD HABITS: He's a whore. Also, he smokes, something that annoys his sister to no end and would definetely outrage his parents. Seb has a tendency to take jokes too far and ends up insulting people on a daily basis. He kind of sees life as a joke and just glides through it. Although generally easy-going, he has a bloody awful temper when he's annoyed enough. He likes manipulating people and can be a bit emotionally stunted at times. Oh, and he smokes. A lot.

STRENGTHS: He's actually super-generous, although people wouldn't think it. If he loves someone, he'd definetely stick up for them no matter what; the only problem is it's really difficult for him to love people. He's intelligent and is brilliant at magic. Seb's also basically a guy to have a laugh and a drink with; he can be a bit wild at times but he's always up for a good night. Although with girls he'd just flirt with and have random flings with, he's just looking for a good night and will probably walk away from them in the morning, if he has a girlfriend he treats her really well. He doesn't want to rely on the family name for his job after school; he wants to make it himself.

WEAKNESSES: Although if Seb loves you, he'll do anything for you, he finds it really, really difficult to love people properly -- however, he wouldn't consider this a weakness or anything bad about himself. In fact, he hasn't even realised fully. There are only a small portion of people he knows well enough to be truly loyal to, which means a good portion of people he knows he'd happily screw over. He's extremely tactless. He senses peoples' weaknesses and has a go at them over and over because of it. His temper is awful when he's really pushed over the edge. He's way too eager to sleep around at times, and prides himself on being a bit of a slut.

OVERALL PERSONALITY: Seb's cocky, confident, arrogant; he grew up with almost everything at his feet and from that he became the guy he is at present time. However, he does manage to be quite charming when it's suits him; he's rarely grouchy or aloof, instead usually equipped with a wide smile and a joking manner. Although it's apparent he's fairly conceited and generally only after one thing, he can be sort of effortlessly charming and generally manages to wriggle his way into people's hearts.

Although he has many faults, he's a decent guy at heart. Not neccessarily a nice guy, but a good one. His moral compass is in need of repair and his views on what's right and what's wrong a tad twisted but the things that he does think are right and wrong he sticks by. He's very proud. Externally, he's like a child; he's happy-go-lucky and restless, cheerful and bright, selfish and funny. His sense of humour can prove very immature. He really does come off as being this kid trapped in a teenage body at times, from his utter obliviousness to his careless ways.

However, he does have a darker side. He's fairly vengeful and although when he's mad at someone he'd be most likely to punch them, if he's really upset with them he'll bid his time. He's not above pretending to be nice to someone and then screwing them over if they really annoyed him. Also, his childishness has an edge; it's like "I know I'm screwing you over and completely annoying you, but I'm super-cheerful to be doing it". Underneath all the cheerfulness there can be maliciousness. He's always up for a good night and would generally dare to do whatever he wants to get his way. He can be maddeningly cheerful at times and goes out of his way to take the piss out of most people. Seb's ridiculously easy-going and doesn't get embarassed easily. However, he can be quite harsh, especially when it's uncalled for. Most of the time, he says what he has to say to get what he wants -- he rarely thinks of the consequences.

His partner-in-crime is his twin sister, Chloe, the Gryffindor of the family. Seb has strict rules about family and although he mercilessly teases and annoys Chloe (and she him) if someone hurt her, he'd flip his lid. Particularly if a guy hurt her. He doesn't do house-discrimation or any discrimation at all; one good thing about him is that he doesn't see people as their house or family or colour or sexuality, he just sees them as people -- not saying he'll be extremely respectful of them all, but if he's being disrespectful it will have nothing to do with any of those things. While he likes being rich he wouldn't look down on someone for being poor or not having as nice clothes as he does, etcetera. He's pretty easy about sharing his stuff or inviting people to his house, etcetera, even though he'll piss and moan about it. Another thing about Seb is he often complains about things but doesn't mean them at all. They're just something to say.

Although he can be disrespectful towards females every now and then, he often does it without thinking and he does feel bad about it. When he has a girlfriend, however, he treats her very well and generally dedicates a lot of his time and thoughts towards her. Usually when he shows affection, however, it's through gentle teasing. Seb's mostly meaner to the people he loves; it shows he cares. He's not so good at loving people because generally he can only give his time to one thing, whether it's partying or smoking or drinking, etcetera, etcetera. Whenever he has a girlfriend, he is generally more humble and mellow. If he goes through long periods without being in a relationship, he often gets wild, restless, boisterous, aggravating, slightly more perverted, and he'll drink less, party harder, flirt more, appear more arrogant, simply because he's missing something that other people seem to have and he finds that he has to fill that empty void with everything else. Same if he's just broken up with a girl -- it just makes him wilder.

Seb's sense of humour is slightly twisted. He's good at making people laugh but when he's in certain moods and making certain jokes people can take them completely wrong. Seb can just accidentally take jokes too far and end up hurting people or disgusting people, but he can't bring himself to care too much. At the same time, he's again like a child with his taunting -- he'll be going on and on and on at someone, until they get mad, but when they get mad, he ends up feeling affronted and at times ashamed. He's never very happy with the result. He can't stop making the jokes and getting himself into trouble until it's too late and he can't fix it.

Seb also wants to make his own way in the world. This has only become apparent to him recently. He's realised that if he only becomes successful and turns a profit afte Hogwarts because of his name, then he doesn't want to become successful at all. He doesn't want to be the rich boy that lives off of his parents' bank account. Something he's wanted all his life is to be successful, respected, feared after Hogwarts -- Seb has always loved work. He loves school, he loves lessons, he even loves homework. It's the only thing in his life that isn't self-destructive or selfish or teenager-ish, the one thing that isn't something you'd find at a party. The only thing about him that's in any way adult, mature. He's never really told anyone about it, because he's ashamed; in some ways, Seb is the way he is because he'd rather appear that way to people than someone mature or kind or selfless.

If someone, in all seriousness, told him he was a nice person, it'd make him quite uncomfortable. It's not that he's horrible, or anything -- his heart is in the right place, although he can be mean at times. He'd just prefer to come off as mean than as nice. He doesn't want to be the guy people can trust, and it's even puzzling to himself. Despite all of his efforts, though, underneath all of the arrogance lies someone who really is decent; it's just a long while waiting for that guy to appear.

but he's coming for you
yeah, he's coming for you

[CHARACTER.MEMORIES.ETC]

BOGGART: Clowns. Clowns scare the boy shitless.

DEMENTOR: When his parents first found out he was smoking; they acted like they were ashamed he was their son. He doesn't know why he started up again, but he's trying to quit. Sort of.

PATRONUS: A day a few summers back, when he was about thirteen; it's all sort of hazy but they were at the Nott Manor with a bunch of their friends, and his cousins were there too, and they were all just sort of messing around and having a laugh. He can't quite pin-point why, but he's always associated that day with, like, pure happiness. Perhaps because no-one was angsting.

MIRROR OF ERISED: He wants to be one of the most important figures in Wizarding History; he wants a great job that means something, he wants to be significant, he wants to do great things, he wants to be the best.

VERITASERUM: 1) he prefers having a girlfriend to flings ;; 2) he's never told anyone he's terrified of clowns ;; 3) he broke a vase in his Aunt Astoria's house and blamed it on their House-elf (he's still guilty)

AMORTENTIA: vanilla, black coffee, red wine, firewhiskey.

all the other kids with
the pumped up kicks

[CHARACTER.HISTORY]

FATHER: Theodore Nott;; pureblood ;; works in the Ministry ;; Seb and his father share a very close, joking relationship. They respect each other. Seb generally forgets to write to his father when he's at school.

MOTHER: Daphne Nott ;; pureblood ;; works as a relationship consellour ;; Daphne dotes on Seb -- he's very much a mummy's boy. She's not blind to his faults, but she loves him and worries about him. Seb's protective of his mother.

SIBLINGS: Chloe Nott ;; twin sister, sixth year at Hogwarts, Gryffindor ;; Chloe and Seb are partners-in-crime -- both are loud and outgoing, although their personalities differ a lot in terms of Chloe being far more 'Gryffindor' than Seb, and Seb being far more 'Slytherin'. Seb's protective of Chloe, as well, although he doesn't show it a lot. Chloe's Seb's best friend, even though he wouldn't go around saying that. They've always been with each other right from the start, and as much as he claims she gets on his nerves, he really does love her very much and can enjoying spending company with her just as well as he could with his other friends.

OTHER IMPORTANT FAMILY:

Scorpius Malfoy ;; cousin ;; sixth year at Hogwarts, Slytherin. Scorpius and Seb have been friends since they were young and are quite close because of that, having spent a lot of their childhood together. They generally just take the piss out of each other and Seb often goes out of his way to taunt and get Scorpius' back up (as does Scorpius with him), but he does enjoy spending time with his cousin and they love each other really

Damien Malfoy ;; cousin ;; fifth year at Hogwarts, Slytherin. Damien is the Malfoy child that Seb is least close with. The older the two got, the less they saw eye-to-eye and Seb often goes out of his way to annoy Damien, but in a far more malicious fashion than he does with Scorpius. Mostly it's harmless teasing, but it's clear he does manage to really anger Damien at times. Although Seb is cold towards Damien as of recent, he is a family guy and despite whatever hatred or anger he felt against him, if Damien was really in trouble, Seb would help. He just doesn't know it.

Chara 'Ella' Malfoy ;; cousin ;; fourth year at Hogwarts, Slytherin. Much to Seb's surprise, he respects his younger cousin a lot and would hope that she respects him as well. He enjoys corrupting her but at the same time tries not to corrupt her too much -- like he's simultaneously corrupting and trying to be protective of her, neither of which go together very well. He likes talking to Ella and would extend his protectiveness of Chloe to his younger cousin, although at the same time he's slightly cautious around Ella. He likes making her laugh but is worried about saying the wrong thing because he's not used to hanging around with younger people.

Astoria Malfoy ;; aunt. Seb's never been too sure of his Aunt Astoria. As a child, he didn't dwell on it too much but now that he's older he wonders often if she actually likes him. He's polite and well-mannered around her, though, because she's his Mum's sister and he's a Mummy's boy through and through. He'd like to be closer to his Aunt, and feels kind of sorry for her although he doesn't know why. He tries to make her laugh but finds it difficult to succeed.

Draco Malfoy ;; uncle. Seb and Draco definetely don't get along. Seb sensed that Draco didn't like him right from when he was a child and because of that acted even worse around his Uncle. Now that Seb's older, the both are quite awkward around each other. Seb thinks Draco a bit of a prat and Draco thinks Seb is a total monster so whenever they meet each other at family gatherings or the like they usually can't meet each other's eyes and just kind of mumble about the weather for a few minutes before one of them (usually Draco) makes an escape.

Sophia Black ;; great-aunt. Seb's slightly scared of his Great-Aunt, but desperate to get into her good books. He sucks up terribly to her, often boasting, but keeping a carefully innocent expression on his face. He's aware she can see through his utter bullshit, but that won't stop him trying. He isn't aware that she likes him, yet, and is determined for her to like him more than Chloe.

HISTORY: Seb was born eight minutes before his twin sister Chloe, but he likes to believe that those eight minutes counted a lot. They were brought up in a rich but caring family, and Chloe and Seb had a childhood anyone would wish for; the twins were close right from the start and the family was tightly-knit and were blessed to remain so throughout the years. They also spent a lot of their early years with their cousins, Scorpius, Damien, and Ella Malfoy, and from that became close with them and were often floo-ing between the houses. The Notts were also close with many other Pureblood wizarding families, and from that Sebastian and Chloe socialized with the children around their age before reaching Hogwarts.

Seb looked forward to Hogwarts quite a lot, and didn't realise how lucky he was to be going with his twin sister, his cousin, and several other children he knew quite well. He was pretty oblivious to the fact that he would have it easier than some children who would have to arrive essentially on their own, knowing no-one else and nothing about Hogwarts. However, there was a tiny part of him that was a bit nervous about going to Hogwarts, especially seeing as he would have to leave the Nott Manor, leave his parents, and in some ways leave behind the childhood. He hid the nervousness, though, as he didn't want to appear silly or weak. He wanted to act like he knew everything.

Even from a young age, Seb was cocky, out-going, and sociable, so the train journey on the Hogwarts Express was breezed through by him. He spent the best part of the train journey with Chloe and Scorpius, messing around and arguing and playing exploding snap with. He showed off a fair bit throughout the train journey, and found that the excitement had overwhelmed any anxiousness he may have felt. By the time they were going to get sorted, Seb was confident that the entire thing was going to be easy as pie. He was sure that he and Chloe were both to be sorted in Slytherin, so sure he didn't even really give it much thought. Scorpius was sorted first, and into Slytherin, much to the twins' dislike. Chloe, however, much to Seb's shock, was sorted into Gryffindor. Seb wondered if he'd get sorted there, too, but he was sorted into Slytherin straight after. It had been the first time the two had been split up. He sauntered to the Slytherin table happily enough, but noticed his sister's distress and at first was slightly worried at how things would turn out.

However, both were fine and although remain as close together now have the independence of being sorted into different houses. Seb excelled in all of his classes in first year with little effort and realised something; he enjoyed work. He enjoyed lessons. He threw himself into his work happily and was never ashamed or worried people would think him a geek if he came top of the class, which he often did. It was then that he got his drive to be the best in everything. He had always been competitive -- often racing Chloe and his cousins and sulking if he didn't win -- but it was only realised then just how much. However, he didn't fix all of his time on work. Because it was all so easy for him, he had extra time to misbehave and the teachers soon began to learn that the more innocent Seb Nott looked, the more likely he had caused some sort of trouble.

Once he had hit puberty, it became apparent to him that he was quite fanciable to the opposite sex and his head grew even bigger. Happy-go-lucky as ever, once he had hit thirteen he was an outrageous flirt and flirted with positively any girl he had. He was shameless about all of his faults and because of that became sort of haplessly charming. Although still childish and quite oblivious-seeming in nature, his sharper, wicked side began to show more the older he got and he concentrated less on school work (although he still mantained high grades) and more on girls, alcohol, parties...he became interested in all of these throughout third year. He became better at annoying and antagonising people and he became better at getting girls to like him. It was almost like a challenge he set himself, at first, with each girl, and unfortunately he often managed to win them over, which explains the mentality he has -- the whole "any girl says yes to me" thing. It's because he got things so easily, he expected them to come just as easily to him the older he grew.

He decided he'd lose his virginity at fourteen, which he did. He has a talent on deciding what he wants and willing them into reality. Seb never regretted having sex with someone he wasn't in love with when he was just fourteen because he still doesn't associate sex with being in love. He wouldn't consider it a special thing. Because of this, he's quite rude to people when they talk about waiting to have sex (unless of course it happened to be his sister or someone he was extremely protective of...that's a different matter entirely). He was only ever in love once, and that was with his ex-girlfriend Bella Viena. He behaved pretty badly after they broke up and is quite ashamed of how he treated her, but hasn't really worked himself up to apologise properly. They also slept together after they broke up, a fact Seb isn't aware of for the time being.

Seb remains interested in his studies and wants to be entirely successful after Hogwarts. He works hard to achieve the results he gets and anything under an O he sees as a fail. He accepts nothing but the best; never has, never will. He's also maturing slowly, much to his dismay, and his moral compass is fixing itself through time. He's happy-go-lucky, cheerful, loud, essentially annoying, and still as close with his family and friends as ever, and rarely angsts.
