➤ ➤ Gideon Prewett ➤ ➤

GENERAL INFORMATION ➤

Full Legal Name: Gideon Felix Prewett Nickname(s): Gid, generally. Git, from close friends. Occasionally he just goes by ‘Fabian, oh - shit, sorry, wrong one.’ Age: 23 Gender & Pronouns: Cisgender male Sexuality:  Certifiably, as gay as the day is long.  Date of Birth: May 29, 1955 Horoscope: Gemini Hogwarts House: Ravenclaw Nationality: British English Occupation (and, if you’re one of the people playing a character close to graduation, future occupation):  Shopboy at the Magical Menagerie in Diagon Alley and wanted vigilante Summarized in One Word: Red

APPEARANCE ➤

Faceclaim: Eddie “ugliest boy in school” Redmayne Height:  6 feet 0 inches Hair Color: Red Eye Color: Green-grey-hazel-messiness Noticeable Features: Freckles everywhere, a voice loud enough to give you a headache, he’s probably gesturing a lot with his hands, why is his hair so red? Oh no, there’s TWO of him,  Typical Outfit or General Fashion Sense: Bad. He thinks nothing about mucking about in trainers all the time and as long as clothes are clean and still fit him, he’s happy to wear them. There’s often a slight wrinkle to him and he sometimes looks more...comfortable than appropriate. When he does dress up, he does it well! But for a normal day, he’s happy in his tee-shirts and denims. There is one spectacular blue coat in his collection now, but he’s almost too worried about wearing it anywhere.

HISTORY ➤

Hometown (and, if they’re a graduate or soon to be a graduate, where they live now or will be living soon):  Gideon shares a flat with Fabian in London, but he is almost never there. If he’s not at Order headquarters, he’s at the Burrow. If he’s not either place, he’s at work. Home is a landing pad at best, not because he dislikes it but because he prefers to keep moving and is unable to be alone. 

Financial Status: Like the rest of their family, the Prewetts are comfortably nettled in the lower class but they’ve gotten very, very good at making do. It’s made worse by the fact that Fabian had to give up cursebreaking and Gideon is stuck at his dead-end, minimum wage job. Still, they split the cost on their apartment and save where they can, using magic to keep clothes mended and things clean. As long as they have enough to eat and a roof over their head and some pocket change for drinks on the weekend, they’re more than happy.

Spoken Languages: English and Molly’s Annoyed Voice (counts as a language, trust him)

Dream Job: He’d love to write children’s books and also be the father to 178 rescue pets

Bad Habits: He has a lot of them. He’s a lip biter, a nail picker, and always leaves his clothes on the floor. He doesn’t smoke - a fact that he’s strangely insecure about - but he’s been known to overindulge on drinks. He interrupts people when he’s excited. He sleeps far, far too late when he can (or, at least, he used to before the nightmares began). 

Above all, though, Gideon is unable to be alone. If a time comes when Gideon has the rare chance to spend a day in his own apartment and Fabian or another friend isn’t there, the place becomes completely uninhabitable to Gideon. He loves being at Order headquarters, or the Burrow, or even work whether he’s scheduled or not, because he needs to be around other people to feel like he’s truly himself.

FAMILY BACKGROUND ➤

Mother: Rose Prewett  Father: Tyson Prewett  Sibling(s): Molly (sister); Arthur (brother in law) Pet(s): None yet, sadly Grandparent(s): Hugo, Gideon’s maternal grandfather, is his only surviving grandparent. Cousin(s): Gideon’s uncle, Ignatius, and his wife, Lucretia, don’t have any children of their own. However, Aunt Lucretia does have one brother - Orion - who has two strapping sons, Sirius and Regulus. Arthur’s brother, Bilius, is much cooler. 

MAGICAL ABILITIES ➤

Wand:  Cypress wood, phoenix tail feather, thirteen inches, unyielding, unusually knobby 

Patronus (and which memory they’re currently using to cast a patronus if they can, or which one they’d use if they could): It’s a fox, and he thinks about last year on Charlie’s birthday when he and Fabian ran around with all the nephews in the backyard and got them to laugh until nobody could breathe, and it was a lovely sunny day, and nobody was afraid and everyone was together! 

Boggart: It’s a reflection of Gideon himself, standing alone. It may not seem like much, but even in Gideon’s head he can’t picture himself without Fabian by his side. If not Fabian, then someone - Molly, or one of his nephews, or a friend, or a fellow Order member. He’s afraid to be alone. To see himself on his own is truly terrifying, albeit embarrassing. 

OWLS: Transfiguration, Charms, Defence Against the Dark Arts, Ancient Runes, History of Magic, Care of Magical Creatures, Potions, Astronomy

NEWTS:  Transfiguration, Charms, Defence Against the Dark Arts, Ancient Runes, Care of Magical Creatures, Potions

What Kind of Magic do They Excel at: His best branch of magic is Transfiguration. In school, it was due to the perfect combination of it being mentally stimulating, practical, adaptable to pranks, engaging and having lessons where he actually got to interact with his wand, his classmates and objects around him. It caught and held his attention enough to seem worth learning, and was taught in such a way that it seemed worth learning. 

Now, in the Order and in his free time, Gideon uses Transfiguration whenever possible. Forgot to wash the dishes? It only takes a few seconds to transfigure his favorite mug into a dinner plate. Unnaturally bored while stationed somewhere, keeping guard? He’s been known to conjure a Rubix cube or other small puzzle box to entertain his hands. Rough day at work, and not feeling like cleaning out the cages? Vanishment is a difficult branch of magic, but Gideon always had a talent for it.

He uses a lot of Transfiguration in dueling, too. When he feels he can’t control his opponent or the situation he’s in, Gideon finds comfort in controlling the surroundings, and will often bring sudden, distracting life to whatever dark alley he’s in to throw the other party off their game.

PSYCHOLOGY ➤

MB Type:  Campaigner ( ENFP-T) (Read more!)

“It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for – and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing. It doesn’t interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool – for love – for your dreams – for the adventure of being alive.”

The Campaigner personality is a true free spirit. They are often the life of the party, but unlike types in the Explorer Role group, Campaigners are less interested in the sheer excitement and pleasure of the moment than they are in enjoying the social and emotional connections they make with others. Charming, independent, energetic and compassionate, they can certainly be felt in any crowd.
