PERSONALITY:
Neil has always been a bit of a star, even though he doesn't want to be. He doesn't mind all the attention and doting he receives, but doesn't understand it either. Even though he is laid back in nature, he is extremely talented and smart, aceing almost all his classes.
He is protective of those he loves, especially his sister, and would go to any length to help them when they are in need. He is a very determined boy, working towards what he wants when he's sure it's what he wants.
But, sometimes he can't handle the stress of it all. When he feels to pressured, he can become annoyed and irritated, and extremely short tempered. He also resorts to smoking and drinking to run away from his own problems, even if he helps others with theirs.
However, once you get to know him, he is a talented, trustworthy and very loyal person.

AND I’M THE ONLY ONE
[/color][/font][/center]Familyhistory
[/font][/center]FATHER: Leslie Pereira, 39. He is a Muggle doctor and expects a lot from his children. Even though he is secretly proud of his son's abilities to top the class, a small part of him also wishes that he would leave the magical world when he is 17 and join a Medical college.
MOTHER: Jude Pereira, 38. A muggleborn witch who is extremely proud of her son and is contantly pushing him to do better, probably because she was less ambitious in her own years. She favors him over his sister any day.
SIBLINGS: Jade Pereira, 22, Intern at Madam Malkin's. Although he is often compared to her and expected to "set an example" despite being younger, he loves her just the way she is. They are pretty close to each other and he is always there for her.
OTHER IMPORTANT FAMILY: ----
HISTORY: Neil was born into an extremely orthodox Christian family, and from a young age always looked upto his sister. He knew his mother's magic was not allowed in the house, a fact which disheartened him a lot, because like every child he wanted to be a part of it.
When he noticed his sister showing signs of it, he was intuitive enough to know that she had inherited it too and hoped that someday he'd go to his mother's old school. He never wanted to be a doctor like his father, a man which he feared although he never had much reason to.
However, he noticed the fact that when he started showing signs of magic and his sister started school, he was favoured more. It shocked him to learn that the girl he looked up to was now placed on a pedestal lower than him. Hell, it angered him and made him more reclusive from his parents who fawned over him.
He felt like he was a part of a prison break when he was allowed to go to Hogwarts and become part of the world he'd always suppressed inside of him. He quickly made friends and found a new family among them, although he was in constant touch with Jade.
Over the years as his grades rocketed up along with his ego, his capacity to understand it all spiralled downwards. Unable to cope with his parent's expectations, frequent sqaubbles with a few schoolmates, his sister's rejection to her dream jobs and his exams, he started smoking and drinking at the tender age of 14. He quickly got hooked and to this day, uses them as stress busters.
But the sunshine came anyway, when he passed nearly all his subjects and Jade got a job at Madam Malkin's. More than anything, he shows his true inner spirit by wanting to be the anchor to his enthusiastic sister, despite the confusion of his own teenage life. His mind has become a rather inticrate maze through the ups and downs of his life, and he continues to rebel against his parents and family, ready to pursue his ambition of joining the Ministry of Magic.
