Character Sheet
General
Name: Lee Jordan
Nicknames (and who is likely to use them): Leej, or sometimes Legion by his sisters.
Age: 28
Birthday: April 23, 1978
Place of Residence (an address in Hogsmeade unless something else has been decided with the mods) Just coming back to England, he’s going to stay in the inn for a few days while trying to reconnect with his old friends.
Appearance
Height: 6’2”
Weight: 175 lbs.
Eyes: dark brown
Hair Colour & Style: Black/very dark brown. Right now it’s in very neat dreadlocks.
Skin tone: middle brown
Build: Tall, lean, and muscular. The man has abs ;)
Distinguishing Marks: Nothing in particular is that distinguishing, except perhaps his hair. And of course, his darker skin does make him a little distinctive. He has one tattoo on his right bicep, a small shooting star with Shauna’s name in it.
Dress Style: (remember that most wizards would wear robes, and that there is a war going on which might effect supplies) He wears robes that have been well cared for, but he almost always wears trousers on under them. It’s not too unusual after the last couple of years to see him in regular muggle garb though.
Things they would always carry with them (optional): He almost always has a small notebook and pen with him.
PB: Michael Ayeboua
Other: A dead-sexy voice ;)
Health
Disabilities/Handicaps: Nothing to speak of, except for his extreme dislike for heights.
Health in general – both mental and physical: He’s in great physical health, and his only drawback mentally is his guilt over his sister’s death and subsequent disappearance from England.
Personality
First Impression (others have of you): Outgoing and happy is generally the first thoughts of people who come across Lee. He’s friendly and has an excellent sense of humour that make most people like him right off.
General Behaviour: First impressions are generally reliable with him – he’s outgoing, friendly, and charismatic. He can be a charmer. When among people, he strives for optimism, especially for other people. For himself, he has grown to like his quiet, personal time, and is sometimes given over to brooding. He likes to be liked and likes to be useful. He’s almost always up for a joke and has a large mischievous streak.
Strengths: His friendliness and charm. People take to him well. He has a great sense of humour. His voice, deep and smooth, is a definite advantage. Very loyal.
Weaknesses: He can be a sucker for a damsel in distress, provided he thinks it’s genuine – he has grown up with four sisters, after all. Very protective of his family, and his friends, but especially of his youngest sister, Leandra.
Habits: Pinching the bridge of his nose when frustrated or after concentrating for a long time. Likes to touch, not necessarily in a sexual way – just friendly like, hugs, arms slung casually around people.
Enjoys: working on the radio, jokes, mischief, family and friends, quidditch (watching, not playing), sushi and seafood in general
Dislikes: heights, feeling useless
Family
Spouse/partner (if applicable): no one special right now
Parents: Amherst and Pleasance Jordan
Sibling(s): 2 older sisters and 2 younger sisters: Jessica, Shauna (deceased), Summer, and Leandra.
Children: none (at least, none that he’s heard of!)
Bloodline: Half-blood
Family History: His mother is a Muggle (who has distant magic ties) from the bayous of Lousiana who was swept off her feet. Married within a couple of months, he whisked her off to England. Lee isn’t precisely sure what his father does, only that it requires a lot of travel. He’s not very close to the man, and they tend to butt heads when they do come together.
He has (had) two older sisters – Jessica, or Jess, is 8 years older than him, and Shauna was 4 years older. Jess is a witch. Shauna was a ‘Squib’ and his dearest friend. She died in one of the random Death Eater attacks in London. He has two younger sisters: Summer is 4 ½ years younger and Leandra is 11 years younger. He’s very protective of them. Summer is a ‘Squib’ but Leandra is a witch and will finish school in a year. She’s his favourite, the baby of the family.
He has very close ties with his family, adores his mother and his sisters and is very protective of all of them and loyal to a fault.
After leaving Hogwarts, Lee started working for the wizarding wireless. He also announced many Quidditch matches and such. Then in December 2002 when there were a lot of attacks, he and his sister, Shauna, were out in London shopping when DEs attacked randomly. He was across the store from her, and by the time he reached her, the Slashing Hex she’s taken to the side had almost killed her and the DEs were gone.
His mother and oldest sister, Jess, were both in the U.S. visiting his mother’s sister, and for once he didn’t resist his father when the man came. Scared for his two younger sisters, one of whom is a ‘Squib,’ they packed everyone up and went on to Louisiana to join their mother. Lee planned on coming back right away, to get more involved in the fighting, but Fate conspired to keep him away.
His mother found out shortly after Shauna’s death that the reason she wasn’t feeling well was that she had cancer (his mum is a muggle with magical blood a few generations back, his father a wizard). His father was back to his traveling, doing whatever he did (Lee’s never known precisely what that is that his father does), and Lee felt responsible for his family, and had to stay in order to help support them and to take care of his mother through endless rounds of chemo and medication, both magical and muggle. During this time he worked various jobs, but most notably worked at one of the US wizarding wireless stations, earning himself his own show at night that garnered a small following.
Now, just over a year after she was deemed in remission, Lee has insisted that he is going back to England to help out his friends. He feels like he’s abandoned them and let them down – that he’s been a coward. He purchases some things he thinks will be helpful and heads back ‘home.’ (Probably some helpful supplies, maybe a few wands, some medical potions and ingredients from the bayou, courtesy of his “Auntie.”)
Pets: a 10-lb. Yorkie named Bane, who follows him everywhere she can get away with and pretends she’s much bigger than she is.
Other: “Auntie” Maria from the bayous, who is a witch and very knowledgeable of hoodoo magic. Also has an Aunt on his mother’s side down there, who is also married to a wizard. Jess has two kids, a girl and a boy, and another baby on the way. He dotes on them.
Social/Romantic/Sexual
Close Friendships: his sisters and mother, and Fred and George Weasley (though it’s been awhile since he’s seen them.
Known Enemies: He’s been away for awhile, but the DEs aren’t likely to like him since he’s never made any effort ot hide his friendship with the Weasleys. Also, he hopes to one day find out who was responsible for the death of his favourite sister.
Sexual Preference: straight, as far as he knows.
Turn Ons: nip and kiss his ear and see what happens. A woman who isn’t out to impress. Quiet beauty. A sense of humour!
Turn Offs: Not much, really.
Past Relationships: He’s not promiscuous but neither is he celibate. A handful of relationships in the last couple ofyears, none of which lasted that long. A few during his Hogwarts years, but not many.
What they think about sex and love: Lee is more serious under the surface than most witches/women realize. He can be a charmer, but in the end he likes having something steady. Though he loves beautiful women, he’s more prone to noticing the wallflowers and pay attention to them – there’s nothing like watching one bloom under some attention.
Other: He opens doors for the ladies and on the whole treats women respectfully (his sisters and his ma would kill him if he didn’t). He’s a sucker for a damsel in distress, but if it’s an act it had better be a good one – he did grow up in a house full of women, after all.
Though if he hears “Let’s just be friends” one more time, he’s going to scream. He isn’t that keen for casual sex usually.
He is open and amenable to a relationship though …
Magical
Wand Type: 13 inch magnolia with dragonheartstring.
Magical talents: Transfiguration, Charms, hoodoo (to an extent, he’s still learning), and CoMC.
Magical weaknesses/aversions (what your character can't or won't do): Herbology, Runes
First sign of magic – when and what: He was five and Jess and Shauna were playing dolls – and he was the doll. He absolutely refused to let them put anything pink or a dress on him, and every time they tried, the clothes shrank.
Boggart: His sisters, hurt or dead, and his mum, also hurt or dead
Knows how to Apparate (y/n): Yes
Knows how to cast a patronus (y/n – if yes what?): Yes – a large spider/tarantula
Knows how to use the unforgivables (y/n): No.
Schooling:
Year: (in relation to Harry's year) 1989 (Third Year to Harry’s First?)
House Gryffindor
Other Affiliations: he’s a friendly guy, he has casual friends in several Houses.
Best subject(s): Transfiguration, Charms, CoMC, a fair hand at Potions and DADA

Best Mates: Fred and George Weasley, friends with the Quidditch team
Romantic interests: No one terribly special.
Level of education reached : A few NEWTs

(Remember that in a war most people will not have much money – if any at all. Those who do profit from war are usually those who are willing to use exploit others. Keep this in mind when deciding on your character's monetary situation.)
Current Occupation: radio host, hopefully
Other Occupations (side incomes, volunteer work, illegal activities): not sure yet.
Monetary Situation: well off enough, or he wouldn’t have left his family.
Other:
Current situation
Affiliations & Organisations: With the Order again, I think.
Faction this character supports: probably whatever the Weasley twins support. Lee knows he’s been out of the loop awhile.
Role in the ongoing war: Looking to get information to the people, particularly through starting up a radio program.
Finally
What is your character's deepest, darkest secret (one that other game characters probably wouldn't know and that he/she would prefer they didn't find out about) Also list the names of anyone who might know, or might be suspicious of this knowledge:
While his mother was sick, Lee did a lot of researching – something he never would have imagined himself doing once he left school. He dealt with a number of questionable things and questionable people, and he thinks that some combination of things contributed to her finally going into remission. His sister Jess might suspect, but no one else knows and he doesn’t want them to.
