Name: Procyon Sheerfor
Blood status: pureblood
Gender: Male
age: 11
Personality: Procyon is a bit of an oddball which isn't out of the ordinary for a member of the Sheerfor Family. Procyon is a contradictory boy who's personality traits often contradict one another. On one hand he's confident and self assured, but on the other hand he's insecure and doubtful. He can be loud and outgoing ,but also quiet and introvert. He can be friendly and optimistic ,but also shy and pragmatic. His reactions at times almost change back and fourth whimsically.
Appearance: dull brown short combed to the right, with blonde hair here and there. bright blue eyes, lightly complected skin, average build, 5 ft., and has a scar across his left hand from a prank that went wrong.
Background: Procyon grew up in a broomstick crafting family. His family has made broomsticks for many generations. The brooms they make are called "Eccelor". Their newest broom is called "Eccelor 415" Their Procyon's father(Aldebaran) is a brilliant, but somewhat reclusive man. Not to be mistaken for antisocial as his father is simply a man who enjoys throwing himself into his work. Procyon's grandfather(Capella) was a much more social man than Aldebaran ,but because of Aldebaran's dedication the quality of his work speaks for itself. Which is why Aldebaran is the family patriarch despite being the second eldest child. A fact that is older brother(Rigel) a pure blood supremacist is envious of. Despite this he has accepted his position as adviser in the family hierarchy ,but openly disapproves of his brother's fair treatment of non-purebloods. Procyon's older brother(Cyrus) is next in line to take over the family business. He lacks his Aldebaran's brilliance, but makes up for it in being cunning ,and business savvy. Denabola is the wife of Aldebaran. She is a clean freak ,and perfectionist. Everything has to be neat, organized, and done just right. She helps keep Aldebaran's reclusive antics in check. Lastly is Procyon's younger sister Vega who is the most antisocial member of the family. She would much rather spend time in the family forest with the animals surrounded by nature. In the middle of this is Procyon whom simply wants to learn whatever fancies his interests at that moment which usually means experimenting with random potion ingredients ,or observing animals in their natural habitats. He has quite the skill in chess ,and is an overall skilled strategist which is why when he plays quidditch he plays as keeper to utilize his strategy skills most effectively. Because Procyon is a sheltered boy he can be gullible at times ,but has been slowly growing out of that with time and experience.
Desired House: ravenclaw
Wand: Walnut wood with a hippogriff feather core, 12" in. and rigid flexibility
Fun facts: like all Harry Potter pure bloods I gave his family names after stars
Procyon has a pet dragon toad named Saltus. His pet is reddish-orange with gold eyes. Like all dragon toads it has dragon-like features ,but is still a toad.

Procyon has a pet dragon toad named Saltus. His pet is reddish-orange with gold eyes. Like all dragon toads it has dragon-like features ,but is still a toad.
Eccelor is Latin for accelerate.
Saltus is latin for leap.
The sun began slowly peaking over the hillside, and light shined through a large window. This window was Procyon's bedroom window. Bells began ringing, horns began blowing, cymbals were clanging, and even a slide flute played.
Nothing. If anything the boy laying cozily in his bed simply rolled over as if nothing was going on, but that would soon end when the bed tossed him into the air, causing him to bounce on the matrice. Soon a dog, a bloodhound ran in and began licking him.
"Stop it boy! Quit it Cocoa!" Procyon said petting the dog. The alarms all stopped the moment he woke up. He smiled and hugged the dog before the dog jumped in bed. Procyon got up and glanced at the dog.
"Breakfast time, boy! Breakfast time!" Procyon cheered before running to the stairs. The stairs leading towards the floor below were not connected to the edge of the wall, but were in fact floating mid air. Brooms throughout the ages decorated parts of the house. These were all made by Procyon's ancestry throughout the history.
Procyon went down another flight of stairs, and was now on the ground floor. Procyon looked in the dining area. Procyon's father was at the head of the table. This was one of the few times Aldebaran left his workshop. Denabola put her foot down on meals. Mealtime was family time. Which meant no wands or brooms at the dinner table. Procyon's brother Cyrus and sister Vega sat across from one another. near the Sheerfor family, sat two squib servant and five house elves ate their breakfast. Unlike many wealthy wizarding families, they ate with their servants. Their servants were well treated, and enjoyed their time at Sheerfor Manor. Procyon sat by his brother, and a house elf named Kurz. Cocoa had a dog bowl near Procyon. Though when guests would come and visit, the servants as well as Cocoa would eat their meals in the kitchen.
Kurz was Procyon's favorite house elf. He was also a protector of sorts when Procyon thought to travel around the woods by his lonesome. Denabola would have Kurz follow Procyon around. Kurz didn't mind since he enjoyed following Procyon around as Procyon was always nice to him. Then there were Maud and Gaud. Twin female house elves. They were both friendly, and did a lot of the chores around the house with the squibs. Then there were Farble and Zarkaar. Fable helped Procyon's older brother, and was a fairly quiet type, which was great since the two got along quite well. Then there was Zarkaar who helped Aldebaran. Zarkaar was a very serious elf. He did not tolerate nonsense, and spent most of his time helping Aldebaran. The two squibs were Jon and Lisa. They both handled the chores around the house, and did whatever Denabola told them to.
After eating breakfast, the Sheerfor family went into their living room. a fire place stood near the southside wall. A very large old fire place. Hung above the fireplace was a very old archaic broom. Made many centuries ago by Castor Sheerfor. The very first creator of accelor brooms. Each of the family took some floo powder, and arrived in Diagon Ally. Luckily for the Sheerfor Family, they had their own portkey.
After arriving in Diagon Alley, Denabola was quick to take charge. They went to all of the locations Procyon would need to see in order to get his books, robes, and other school requirements. While Denabola was waiting to get Procyon's books, Procyon, Aldebaran, and Cyrus snuck off to look at brooms, and Procyon wanted to look at The Magical Menagerie.
Aldebaran: You can have one creature on your trip to Hogwarts my boy...
Procyon: That one!
Aldebaron: The tawny owl?
Procyon: No, that one
The cat?
Procyon: mmh-mmm! *Procyon turned his head*
Cyrus: That's a toad, those aren't cool anymore brother
Procyon: He's beautiful *Procyon picked up the toad and stared at his father*
Aldebaran: *He let out a chuckle for he knew exactly what his wife would say* Very well... A toad it is
The toad was orange and had small horns. It's eyes were golden. This was a dragon toad.
Procyon: Saltus! Yay!
Cyrus: Mom's gonna be pissed about this... Saltus thing
Saltus: *Ribbit!*
Aldebaran: How about some ice cream?
Procyon: Double yes!
Cyrus: Remember mom's favorite flavor?
Aldebaran: Butter toffee, child's play
Cyrus: Smart
Aldebaran: I always know how to stay on your mother's good side. After all I've been married to her for the past 28 years after all...
Cyrus: Anniversary?
Aldebaran: That's not due to occur for another four months, twelve days, and sixteen hours. Please... As if I'd forget that imortant date *Aldebaran began laughing*
Cyrus: *Cyrus also began laughing with him*
Procyon: *Procyon started laughing to to avoid being left out*
They got ice cream for everyone. Procyon had a toad in one hand and a large ice cream cone on the other. Four scoops of explosive cherry. Explosive cherry tasted like cherry ice cream, but the kick was occasionally the ice cream with cause sparks. The sparks were safe as they were not hot enough to burn anyone so it was safe for consumption.
Denabola let out a startled look of disappointment she saw the toad. She nearly leaped three feet in the air in disgust.
Denabola: What is the world is tha-?! No. No! Absolutely no- Where did you get that? *Denabola said gesturing towards the ice cream that Aldebaran was now holding out* *She snatches the ice cream from his hand and reluctantly accepted the bribe*
Vega: Thankyou daddy! *She accepted her ice cream*
Denabola: Finish your ice cream quickly so we can drop toad boy, I mean Procyon off at nine and three quarters" She said licking her ice cream cone as the ice cream began to melt.
After arriving at the train station, Denabola made sure he was clean, ice cream free, and his toad would be far away from her at all times. Saltus leaped outta Procyon's hand and gave Denabola a big ol' kiss on the cheek. She turned tail and walked off as fast as she could without throwing a fit. Though the look in her agitated eyes said it all. She eventually returned to see Procyon on the train, and holding Saltus up by the window as the train slowly began moving. She scowled at the toad and smiled at Procyon. The rest of Procyon's family smiled and waved goodbye to Procyon as well.
