Age & Year:
Sixteen, he just started his sixth year
Birthday:
April 1st
Sexual Orientation:
Bisexual. Though Daniel is a very flirty creature, he hasn’t been sexually active with more than one person. He tends to kiss and make out a lot though, usually more guys than girls, since it’s less complicated (in his view, guys tend to ask for less than girls would, relationship-wise).
Birthplace:
Weymouth, Dorset. The major attraction to tourists is the beautiful golden sandy beach. A wide curve of pure sand stretches along the arc of the town. The water in Weymouth bay is very shallow and when the tide recedes it is possible to walk about half a mile out to sea and still be only in knee deep water.
Current Residence:
Daniel lives with his father in a small white house near the village of Hogsmeade.
Parents:
Father: David Bailey, 43, Freelance Photographer
Mother: Marie-Claire Clifton, deceased
Siblings:
None

**WHAT DO YOU LOOK LIKE**
Picture:
Looks:
Height: 5’6.
Weight: Roughly, 135lbs. He doesn’t weigh himself often though
Hair Colour: Honey Blonde, with on occasion a few black streaks
Eye Colour: Gray/blue
Appearance:
Daniel wears an old watch his mother bought him just before she died. It doesn’t work at Hogwarts, but it’s still something that means a lot to him. He’s toyed with the idea of getting his eyebrow or his lip pierced, but he doesn’t like needles and he knows the no-piercing policy that most Professors abide by. He might get something done after finishing his education, but for now he’s just the kid with the cute, slightly crooked smile
Favourite Outfit:
His clothing style is casual. There is really not much to say. He wears jeans, blue, black or grey ones, and t-shirts. He’s fond of grey clothes, one of his favorite items is a black and grey striped longsleeve. It’s just so damn comfy. But he’ll just as easily be seen wearing bright colors, like yellow and red. It’s mostly whatever is within reach. One color he does not wear is pink. Daniel thinks that not a lot of men can pull this color off, and that most people who try look ridiculous
**PERSONALITY**
How do you treat your friends:
He's sweet, loyal and you can call on him at any time. But at the same time, he'll likely keep his distance from most people. He is friendly and sociable, but people can orbit in and out of his life in a flash. He will trust people easily, but loses touch just as quickly. It's his way of keeping people at a distance without them asking questions.
How do you treat your enemies:
He will try to make things right between him and whoever he’s fighting with, but he refuses to be like a puppy and follow someone around, begging for forgiveness. If people don’t like him...well that’s just their loss. He's a bit promiscuous but usually people don't seem to mind. He likes to kiss, but he won't tell.
Social Status:
Daniel is moderately popular. There are those who like to be around him because he's generous with kisses and affection, and there are those who just want a quick lay. He's often busy, but is generally well-liked even if he doesn't have many close friends.
Positive Traits:
* Artistic – Daniel loves dancing. It’s mostly a mix of hip hop and street dance.
* Social - He likes his friends well enough, even if they don't know too much about his personal life. He doesn't feel they have to, as long as he trusts and cares for them, that should be enough.
* Confident - He's very forward about who he is. If people don't like it, tough. Of course he'll try not to offend others, but he isn't going to change his lifestyle to fit someone's dreams.
* Helpful - He likes people to be happy. If there's something he can do to make that happen, he will.
* Hard-working - He's been known to work really hard, though class is not always his top priority. But even when it comes to stuff he doesn't like, he'll likely do it without complaining.
Negative Traits:
# Rash – People often have to warn him to think before he acts. He’ll give a stupid answer in class because he didn’t think the question through, or do something else without considering the consequences. It sometimes gets him in trouble, but well, he’s a teenager. It’s sorta in the rulebook anyway/
# Easy to distract – Look, something shiny! Daniel has trouble focusing sometimes. He can get distracted mostly by music in his head, or how cute someone looks, or even by wondering what other people are thinking. He doesn’t mean to zone out on people [or homework], it just...happens.
# Very forgiving – Fool me once, fool me twice...Sometimes people fool Daniel a lot of times before he turns away from them. He tries to see the good in people, and has trouble accepting that there are those who would hurt others on purpose.
# Immature – Even though Daniel tries his best to work for a good future, he is still a teenager. He can enjoy silly things like pillow fights or making snow angels.
# Non punctual – Oh shit, is it that late already? It’s a phrase heard quite frequently from the boys lips. He’ll sleep in too late, be forced to skip breakfast just to get to class on time. When he’s meeting a friend he’s almost always fifteen minutes late.
# Dependant – Daniel likes to have someone who takes care of him, saving him some breakfast when he’s late, that kinda thing. He won’t be clingy, but it’s nice to be the child once in a while.
# Disorganized – His room, even his trunk, they’re a mess. He says he knows exactly where everything is, but really, he just dislikes having to spend time to tidy up

**SOME MORE INSIGHT**
Skills/Hobbies:
Daniel is a dancer. He spends most of his time practising, so it’s not just a skill, it’s a way of life. Aside from that he likes to make music and make out.
Likes/Dislikes:
[Likes]
* Dancing – It’s an art, and he loves expressing himself in dance.
* Singing - He isn't terribly good at it, but he likes it.
* Going out - To a party, a movie, he just likes to do something with his free time.
* People who don't ask questions - He likes how people can accept him and don't have to know every detail.
* Music - It makes him feel free and like nothing else matters. It's a language all on its own.
* Piano - His mom taught him to play when he was young.
[Dislikes]
* Alcohol - His father is an alcoholic and he hates what it does to people
* Vomit - Just the smell brings back bad memories
* Physical abuse - He's not ashamed to admit it happened to him once or twice. Or actually, he is. He won't tell anyone.
* People looking down on others - He feels everyone is equal. You can't judge people based on what happened in their lives.
* Fate - If there is such a thing, why does it make shitty things happen to good people?
Best/Worst memory:
[Best Memory] The first make out session he had. The boy called him beautiful. It was just after his mother died, and he smiled for the first time.
[Worst Memory] His mother dying, and everything that happened because of it. His father starting to drink, the physical and emotional abuse that followed it
Secrets:
His dad being an alcoholic is a pretty big secret. He tries his best to cover it up. His dad lives close to Hogsmeade, so he goes there quite often to clean up and make sure the man looks presentable. He's terrified of someone running into him when he's with his father, so he doesn't often visit Hogsmeade on the official weekends.
**YOUR HOGWARTS CAREER**
What subjects are you taking this term:
* Potions - A
* Charms - E
* Transfiguration - E
* Herbology - A
* Ancient Runes - E
* CoMC - O
Favourite/Least Favourite Subject:
Favorite: Ancient Runes. It’s like learning a whole new language. It’s a difficult class, but the Professor is nice and Daniel likes the assignments he sets for the students.
Least favorite: Herbology. He just doesn't have that much with plants. He's good at the subject though, so he stuck to it after his OWLs.
What kind of student are you:
Definitely not a troublemaker. Most of the Professors like him, though he can definitely get distracted in class. He’s someone that needs to be looked after and called to attention every so often, though when he hands his work in it is usually at least acceptable. He’s a nice kid and works well with others. Most teachers think that he could do better if he just learned how to focus.
What is your preferred House:
Hufflepuff
**BEFORE AND AFTER**
How Did You Come To Be/Childhood:
Marie-Claire Clifton was a witch, but she spent most of her twenties as a ballet dancer, who spent years with a traveling ballet group. One night, she went to perform in Dorchester, the county seat of Dorset. She met David there, who worked in the theatre the company performed at. Though both were in a relationship at the time, they fell for each other and promised to keep in touch. Marie-Claire went on to dance in many more beautiful places, but she never forgot about the small town boy, and they did keep in touch. When she finally retired at the age of twenty-four, after a nasty injury, she visited David. They were both single and got together fairly soon afterwards. At the age of twenty-five, they were married and expecting their first child
When Daniel was twelve, his mother was diagnosed with cancer. His father began drinking heavily, not able to deal with the fact that his wife was in such poor health. Daniel tried to be with his mother as often as possible, but she died one night while he had just returned to Hogwarts, when he was fifteen. He went back for the funeral, but things were never the same after that. His dad's drinking got even worse, and he's been taking his grief out on his only son. Dan hasn't been hit often, but he's been hurt a few times. Still, it's his dad and he's the only family he has. His father dislikes how much he looks like his mother.
Coming To Hogwarts:
Hogwarts was surreal. Even with is mom being a witch, he didn't expect to be good enough to go to Hogwarts. Still, he loves it. There are a lot of pretty boys and girls willing to comfort him after his mother died, and he loves being able to do magic and combine it with dancing.
What do you want to do after Hogwarts:
Daniel desperately wants to dance. He is training so hard and hopes to become a part of a traveling dance group, or even act in musicals or something. As a back-up option, he is interested in doing something with kids...maybe sick kids or just teaching dance.

ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER –
Face Claim:
Richie Stringini
Role-playing Sample:
Daniel had just exited the Hufflepuff Common Room, changing his robes for the more casual Muggle attire he was now wearing. It was much easier to dance in, and that was exactly what he was going to do. Homework could wait. Dancing...well it couldn’t. If he did his homework first, and then had dinner, he’d have no time to dance. Not if he had to check up on his father and be back before curfew. It would be a tight fit as it was, so he mentally prepared himself to do homework in the middle of the night. It had been too many close calls with his Professors as it was, and the last thing he wanted was for people to start asking questions.
Climbing the stairs, he finally entered the Music Room, grinning as he walked in. He loved spending time here, aside from the grand piano it had technology to play Muggle cd’s. It was easily his favorite room in the castle, and he practically twirled around as he headed to the stereo. He put in an R&B cd. It wasn’t his favorite music to listen to, but he loved dancing to it. Stretching his muscles, he made sure that they were warm before starting his dance routine. What he wanted most of all was to become a part of a dance group, and he had been training on a routine he’d taped during the holidays.
