Acer Liner Shafiq
Age: 18
Birthday: June 26th
AppearanceAcer stands at 6' 2" weighing 140lbs. His body is lean, but he very well built. Acer likes to work out and he plays Quidditch as much as he can. He is covered in tattoos, despite his parents not approving of them. He got them the summer he turned 17, an hour glass with wings over his chest and tribel designs over his arms. Acer's hair is short and blonde, he likes to style it to come up off his head, but if he doesn't feel up for it or he's just hanging around his house, he'll normally just put on a hat. Normally wearing robes and slacks no matter where he goes, unless he's out on the field.
Character HistoryAcer grew up in the wizarding world, as any Pureblood, he was supposed to be ideal of all wizards. In the end though, Acer didn't care. He didn't want to have all the rules holding him back and building him up. He didn't understand why he had to hold himself back from being himself, when he saw everyone else being happy. Growing up, Acer was distant with his parents, because they didn't like how he was growing up to be. Acer would either be out on his broom practicing his runs or he'd be hauled up in his room reading a book.
One of Acer's guilty pleasures was reading, he would read almost any book he could get his hands on. It was how he liked to spend his time other than working out. He had two younger siblings that he cared for a lot, but it really depending on his mood. On a good day he wouldn't mind taking out his little brother to work out with him, or taking his youngest sister out in town. On a bad day though, Acer was not someone his siblings would want to mess with. He was rude and mean, and over all a bully around them.
In school, Acer was the same way, he would look out for his siblings from a distance, but he mostly hung around his own friends in his own year, trying to keep enough distance that he had personal space between himself and his family.
Family HistorySuanna and Joson Potter, a pureblood couple born in the 1930s, were raised to believe in all pureblood traditions. They were not dark, but they were not light either, in this day and age, purebloods were just thought of to be of higher power. So they believed that they were, they had three children, Thomas, Annalyn, and Susanna. Whom they tried to marry off into other pureblood families. Their eldest son, Thomas was married to another pureblood, Jennifer Flint at the age of 16. Annalyn the middle child, fell in love with a half blood man named George Floan, ran away from home after graduation, and married him. The youngest daughter, Susanna, married a pureblood man of the name Winters Shafiq.
Winters and Susanna, tried their best to keep up with all pureblood traditions without picking a side with power, they tired to raise their child telling him that purebloods were of higher value, but he should not broadcast this. Winters and Susanna had only one son Marcus, they married him to Lieanna Selwyn, a pureblood woman. Lieanna was a women who beileved in pureblood power and loyalty, that they were above all halfblood and muggleborns. She was firm in raising her children the same way. Marcus saw nothing wrong with this, they were not a dark family, they did not fight during the wars, so it did little wrong for his children to understand the value of pureblood traditions.
So they did, they raised Acer, Jagger and Anna in stricter traditions than what Marcus grew up in. He didn't want this most times, but as he saw his eldest, Acer start to rebel, he kept silent. He was sure, with everything that had happen, that his younger children would follow in the example set by their elder brother. Marcus saw both wars happen, how light won both times, he did not want his children to be on the wrong side in the end even though they never fought. Lieanna did not agree with this. She saw that even though the light side won, it matter very little in reflection to their family because they never took part in the war itself.
