The Basics

• James
• Born August 5th
• English
• Halfblood
• Gryffindor
• Leo
Leo is the fifth sign of the zodiac and rules the back, the spine, and the heart. Positive traits include creativity, charisma, generosity, warmth, enthusiasm, a natural talent for leadership, and a great deal of inner power; negative traits are haughtiness, snobbery, an expectation that one is the centre of attention and should be waited on by everyone else, profligacy, lack of realism, dominance that can lead to bullying, and a refusal to change one's mind even in the face of solid facts.

This is a natural sign for Gryffindors, not least because the griffin is part lion. Gryffindors born under this sign are outgoing, friendly, affectionate, and likeable. They make friends easily and are crushed when their advances are rejected. Their romantic, chivalrous nature makes them perfect examples of all that is best in their House. However, they are also bossy, domineering, spendthrift, and overly dramatic (ever heard the phrase "drama queen?") They have sharp tempers and need to learn to direct their anger toward only needful causes. The natural creativity and flamboyance of Leo makes Gryffindors born under this sign good at most everything they attempt, provided they apply themselves to learning magic rather than using magic to hog the limelight.

Personality
Unless you're one of his close friends, James may come off as being an outspoken, and perhaps a bit arrogant, very typical Gryff. He's bold, states his opinions, and doesn't really think about the possibility of offending people. He's big on being honest to a fault, which makes him come off as being a person that he's not.

Those who are close to him, however, know him for who he really is-- a friendly, laid back, joking sort of bloke who cares deeply for his friends and family. He's willing to go to any lengths to keep them from harm and won't hesitate to harm those who hurt them. He's a joker with a good sense of humour and enjoys a good laugh. He tends not to take (most) things seriously, perhaps as a coverup for a slightly darker nature. He's also a sweetheart, always offering encouragement and advice.

...and he thinks up random nicknames for people. A lot. Though, girls are usually female Disney characters, but what can you do?

James gets depressed and offended rather easily and is prone to bouts of sulking and hiding away when things seem to go badly. He doesn't take well to rejection, though outwardly, he's good at covering up. Inside, however, he takes it quite personally and things get to him more than he cares to think about. He's not an emotional person either-- not because of being 'manly' or what not, he's just... not. He's not big on being affectionate with most people either. That sort of thing tends to make him awkward and shy away. He's not the type to openly flirt either-- he's far too laid back and really ' care much for that sort of thing.

Overall, though? He's a nice guy who, while tending to do stupid things, a loyal, dedicated, and good friend.

Important People

kiley_barton; Ravenclaw. They've been best friends since they were kids and have a.... very, very odd relationship, especially since he despises her boyfriend. A lot. As in he'd kill him, given the chance. Still, he positively adores Kiley and would do anything for her. She just... baffles him. A lot.

charmingdarin; Hufflepuff. Close friend and partner-in-crime. James is pretty much convinced that Darin's one of the few people in the school worth spending time with, since everyone else seems so damn uptight and not willing to have a little... harmless fun.

daridavison; Ravenclaw. James adores Dari lots and would do anything in the world for her. He's quite protective of her and thinks she's a fantastic sort of girl, though... again. Thinks the boyfriend is lame.

rinna_marie; Ravenclaw/Fellow JEW. Okay, so, Rin? Is fun. And pretty. And pretty damn entertaining to be around. They play off of each other really, really well and have loads of fun flirting and whatnot. They're silly bitches and get along fantastically.
