heyo, i’m excited to bring my boy into this group. he’s a bit of a mess, but i’m a bit of a mess so i guess it makes sense. below is an attempt at an intro while i flesh him out.
everyone knows of oliver wood. the gryffindor with a clear obsession of all things quidditch. well, he’d go on to play that sport professionally and be damn good at it. it was around this time he met his wife, esma dolunay. a muggleborn witch. she too, was an exceptional quidditch player. it seemed like fate the moment he locked eyes on her high up on the pitch.
adair wood was born in a small wizarding village of river piddle in dorset, england. he grew up around broomsticks and golden snitches and quidditch matches. his mother had taken a leave of absence during her pregnancy, but went back two years and some months later. so they took little adair everywhere possible. traveling far distances for matches; hoping their son would one day play the game as well.
that didn’t exactly happen. sure, adair liked the camaraderie that was quidditch and how there was a clear objective: win. but he favored books, not flying. he’d much rather choose a quiet library than a begrudgingly loud match surrounded by a roaring crowd.
hogwarts was a great escape. he was sorted into gryffindor, welcomed in with loud claps and candy coated smiles. he was excited to learn. yet, all his older housemates talked about was his father’s prowess on the pitch. they’d lock arms with him and boast, “ you’re gonna be great! ”
little did they know he was rubbish at the sport and had no desire to play. apart from his flying, he was completely uncoordinated. all thumbs and all. he was tempered even as a child, and when they kept prodding, adair blew up. a tantrum in the great hall from a short first year. it got his mind across though, and it garnered him a few glares from the older lions.
he kept to himself for the most part. a bit of a loner one would say. by seventeen, he had immersed himself in all the core subjects, along with ancient runes and arithmancy - though he struggled with the latter. already having a clear objective of where he’d go after graduation; he longed for his own adventure - one with risk and reward. by eighteen he had said goodbye and applied for gringotts as one of their cursebreakers.
tl;dr
to summarize & add quick snippets, adair disliked being in the shadow of his father. he didn’t realize this jealousy until his early days at hogwarts. the boy course-corrected this by finding things he was passionate about, such as books and dueling and music. he was impulsive and impatient. always the kind to show his emotions through his eyes which made him a rotten liar. has a temper, though it’s since tamed in comparison to his hogwarts years. the studious type. is known to have candy stashed in his pockets to keep his energy up. has a strained relationship with his father, oliver wood, but keeps in contact with his mother when his job allows. has small scars fleeting his hands from a nasty curse left on an amulet a few years back. doesn’t have many friends. feels he’s burnt too many bridges since not staying in touch with them after hogwarts. is a floater of sorts when it comes to his alignment with the refined order, but adds his two cents in when he wants.
