----General Character Information----
Personal History: In the eyes of nearly everyone, the Bucher family is a wealthy, happy, pureblood family. However, Eileen and Therin's only child is hardly a pureblood. In fact, he is a halfblood with a muggle as a father. As so often happens with arranged marriages, Eileen Mariott was hardly able to give up her male friends for her less than appealing husband. As a result, precious Grady was not born to Therin, but instead a muggle man by the name of Rhys Hill. Eileen has done a fabulous job of keeping this secret underwraps, and she is the only one who knows even to this day.
Shoftly after this seventh birthday Grady had a harrowing ordeal with a bee. It was quickly deduced that he was very much allergic to their sting. As with all things that may have looked bad for their family, the Bucher family did their very best to cover up Grady's medical problems, even to the point that they paid doctors at St. Mungos to not release any information about their darling boy.
As most boys do, ten year old Grady was trying to show off his amazing strength by swimming across his families pond. Unfortunately, he drastically over estimated his ability, and severely under estimated how large the pond was. After growing so tired he could not even tread water, he nearly drowned, only saved by his fast acting Aunt Margret.
When he was eleven, as everyone expected, Grady received his letter to Hogwarts. Though his parents were hoping he would be sorted into Slytherin, they did not have high hopes. Their son was never what they had wanted, and it seemed obvious he would not end up in Slytherin. However, when he was sorted into Gryffindor, they were shocked. And horrified. How in the world could they bring him to parties now, what with all of their friends children in Slytherin?
For much of his life, Grady was carefree and did not even consider the fact that he was growing up. However, in his fourth year, his Aunt - a squib - was murdered. Though it has never been proven, Grady has always been convinced that it was Voldemort and his "merry band of men" who were the culprits. Though it was her own sister, Eileen seem unaffected by Margret's death, and Therin barely managed to acknowledge that she had ever existed at all. This drove a wedge between Grady and his parents and he has been fiercely against Voldemort ever since.
This year, Grady is hoping to get back on the quidditch team. He has played since his third year and his cockiness has him convinced he's a shoe in. He intends to concentrate on his studies much more than he had in previous years. After all, this was the year that determined if he was an auror, or if he would end up to be an old man who made up silly stories to woo the old ladies.
Personality: If nothing else, Grady is honest and outspoken. He does not tend to think of the impact that he words may have, and as a result spurts harsh truths to those who aren't ready. This readily gets him into trouble with ladies, and their male suitors. If he thinks a girl is pretty, he does not hesitate to say so, regardless of company. Surely he cares about personality, but when the extent of seeing these lovely ladies is a breif moment, one can't concern themselves with such things.
Grady is an attention whore; he adores the company of people, as many people as possible. He has absolutely no sense of personal space, he does not need any and expects the same of everyone else. It is always a bit of a rude awakening when he finds that other people don't like being touched or being talked to, or need space.
He's always up for a good laugh, even if he's not the one being funny. Mostly, he just loves having a good time. He loves to drink and sees alcohol as a way to bring people together. Normally he is incredibly caring, fun, and spontaneous. This spontaneity is driven by a burning impulsiveness which he simply cannot control. This too, manages to get him into trouble. He considers most people close friends; it takes hardly any effort to become one of his friends and it takes a lot to shake him loose, even if you're trying. Grady is known for rooting for the underdog, and will defend anyone if they are being hassled no matter his own personal history with them.
Though he is usually easy-going, Grady has an incredibly short fuse. It takes almost nothing to get him angry, but at the very same time his anger fizzles out almost immediately. He does not hold grudges and has a tendency to forget about conflicts. That is, unless they involve the topic of superior bloodlines. In the morning he is incredibly grouchy, especially if he has to rise early. Usually it takes a good shower and a hearty breakfast of ham, eggs, and some form of potatoes to rouse his lighthearted nature.
Strengths:
Quidditch Beating - Grady possesses a very powerful upper-body; this makes him an obvious choice for beater. He is very skilled on a broom, and has a very strong hand-eye coordination. He has praticed quidditch since he was a very young boy - especially beating, as that is the most manly of positions - and over the years has grown incredibly skilled.
Muggle Football - Being as fascinated by Muggles as Grady is, it is reasonable that he would pick up some hobbies of muggles. Football is certainly one of these hobbies, and he enjoys it dearly. For the most part, he plays during the summer months with a gaggle of boys his age. However he has discovered that muggleborns are a wonderful, untapped resource when it comes to playing football and he often rounds them up for a game or two.
Eating and Drinking - Grady's stomach is much like a bottomless pit. He is always hungry, and no matter how much he eats he is never full. In fact, the only reasons he usually stops eating is because there is no food left or he needs to do something else. His favorite food is potatoes, and he likes to couple those with ham. Never has there been a more fitting meal. Also, Grady has an incredible tolerance to alcohol. It is outragous how much he needs to drink to become properly drunk, and actually getting drunk has become so much of a chore that it is no longer the reason he drinks. He merely likes the taste now, really. Or even better, he likes to use his strength to win at drinking games.
Weaknesses:
Lazy - It is not a stretch to say that Grady's whole persona can be summed up in one word: Lazy. Now, it is not to say that he cannot be motivated, but it takes a dragon breathing fire down his neck before he gets his rear in gear. And whether that dragon be real or some crazy bird, figuratively speaking, it is not easy to move him. He is a teen boy, through and through; too much effort is required to remove him from bed and he sleeps whenever he has the chance. On the floor, sitting up, in class, in detention, where ever he can catch a "Z", he will.
Messy - Though it does seemingly accompany his laziness, Grady is incredibly messy. He has stated, for most of his natural life, that he finds things best when they are strewn about on the floor. Plus, he sees no point in putting his clean clothes away when you're only going to put them on again and find that they're dirty not long after. His dorm his a mess; god forbid his roommates appreciate a tidy room, because sharing a room with Grady means making room for his things on your side. Namely, discarded clothing.
Allergy to Bees - Grady is life-threateningly allergic to bees. If he is not rushed into medical care immediately after a sting, he is in serious danger of dying..
Need to be a "Lady Killer" - For much of his life, Grady has attracted hoards of girls. He was no one to complain, taking the ones who offered themselves and trying his best to charm those who were not as forthcoming. He has been rightly slapped numerous times, and though he is very effective with his seductions, this is a terrible weakness for him. Since maturing, he has tried to quell his lusty nature, but old habits die hard and he cannot help but try to woo pretty ladies when he sees them.
Insecurity - Though he portrays a confident (perhaps over-confident) persona, in reality, Grady is incredibly insecure. He is concerned that he is not good enough to become an auror. The slew of ladies he entertained himself with for so long was a direct result of his insecurity with his looks. He is obsessive with his grooming habits in attempts to make himself feel better about himself.
Bad Student - Except for the classes he actually cares about, Grady is a horrible student. He regularly skips class, and has never attended a study hall in his life. Unless of course going to study hall meant he would catch a bird. All through his years he has barely managed to scrape by; this year he plans to be different, however. He needs to learn everything he failed to in past years so he can be the auror he has wanted for so long.
Fears:
Swimming - Grady is afraid to go swimming. Granted he does it nearly every summer to keep up appearances, but it is a nerve-wracking experience for him. He nearly drowned when he was younger, and since then he likes to keep his distance.
The Deaths of Loved Ones - Though he does not share the same beliefs as his parents, he is terrified to think that what he does may affect whether they live or die. He hopes that they are wound in tightly enough with Voldemort that nothing will happen to them. Since the death of his Aunt, Grady has become very serious about protecting the ones he loves and becoming an auror. With so many muggle, muggleborn, and halfblood friends, he considers it his duty to protect them.
Ghosts - After walking through a ghost in his first year, Grady hates ghosts. He avoids them at all costs and would rather be stung by a bee as he's jumping into the lake before he walked through another.
Secrets/Hopes:
Grady's mother, despite her newly married status, found it difficult to break off relationships with men she had been seeing before her arranged marriage. Before long, she found herself pregnant, and it was not with Therin - but instead Mr. Rhys Hill. Thankfully, it seemed that she was the only one who knew about Grady's real father. Even now, seventeen years later, she is the only one who knows. (Please leave this in his application, to explain the numerous brothers and sisters.)
Though Grady would never admit it - in fact he doesn't like to think about it himself - he desperately wants a family when he grows older. There are only three people in his immediate family (to his knowledge), and this has convinced him he wants several children. He especially wants a daughter to dote upon; though he would also love a son to hunt with, as he thinks hunting is a very father/son type of activity he was never forced into with his father.
Grady is allergic to bees; he keeps this as tight-lipped as possible. Few people other than his parents, the doctors who have treated him, and those who have witnessed the stings know.
Physical Description: Grady has an athletic build, with slender arms and legs and strong core. He is roughly 6' 1", and 91kg, most of his weight is muscle. He doesn't care much for robes, and spent a good bit of younger years trying to persuade his parents to let him wear muggle clothes. His hands are large, and his fingers slightly crooked. His natural hair color is blond, though he dyes it black on occasion - much to the dismay of his family. He is very much able to grow facial hair and though he tends to like being cleanshaven, he is very laxed about his shaving and has plenty of stubble.

Special Attributes: Grady is colorblind in both eyes. It does not hinder him and he has made no attempt to right it. Other than that, his vision is nearly perfect.

Sample RP post with the character. Please use third person style:
Today had been quite the day. All morning he had been depressed until he managed to drown his sorrows in potatoes. Then some little kid had the nerve to start interrogating him about Charlie - to add insult to injury. It had been ages since he had seen her, basically, and it was wearing on him. All the alcohol he had managed to sneak in was certainly already gone, and dinner was nearly an hour away. Grady checked his watch; 59 minutes. It would be a very long while until he could eat himself potato silly.
Thankfully, he was not as miserable as he had been. Originally, he had hauled himself up to the common room to avoid being caught for skiving off on both of his study halls and maybe see his lover girl. But now it was just a lounge fest. He wasn't sure if he had ever looked more like a teenager in his life; he was sprawled out on the floor in front of the fire, robes wrinkled and his toe almost peeking out of the bottom of his shoes. Boy, how he loved those old shoes. If his parents knew how he looked, they would have pitched a fit. Something about no son of theirs looking so disheveled. He just hoped that the snow didn't fall any time soon - that would be cold on his poor toes.
Grady brushed a hand through his hair staring at the ceiling. Where were his mates? Especially Jackie. If he didn't see that bloody bird soon, it would've been easy to assume that she was avoiding him. She always stuck to him like glue, but it seemed he hadn't seen her in days! A horrible thought struck him; maybe he smelled. He had been a little laxed on the shower business, only taking one a day instead of two. But, that was what depression did to a poor teenage boy. He closed his eyes, sighing heavily and wondering how you could be in the same house with someone and see them so very little.
