OLIVER DAVID SPITERI
This is OLIVER DAVID SPITERI who is a 5th YEAR HUFFLEPUFF.
They are 15 years old, and look a bit like RUDY PANKOW.
Played by ELLA.
Okay, so. There was a lot to live up to when you have Ariadne as a sister. Have you seen her?
Oliver felt like he grew up in her shadow, even though there was absolutely no shadow to be seen. The two were as different as night and day, and their parents saw them that way, too. But, this sideways feeling he had his entire life caused him to work really hard in everything he did - quidditch, writing (his father was a reporter, after all!), studies, learning English. He didn’t have as much of a language barrier from their move in 2005 since he was learning English at the same time as Ariadne, but it was still a jump, and he still likes to speak French at home.
Oliver is not a veela like his sister, unfortunately. He really could have used the extra confidence and special abilities, but instead he’s just awkward and able to toss a few one liners in there to cause those around him to laugh. He was sorted into Hufflepuff, the house of the hardworking, and that really shows. He’s all about making those around him smile, laugh, and doing things just to get a rise out of people. He’s kind of a handful; even growing up he would find himself getting into trouble just because he wanted to make someone laugh.
The fifth year is just starting to fit into his shoes, per say - he is figuring out who he is, who he likes, what he wants to do. He is a bit of a wild card currently; you’ll never be able to peg what he’s going to do next, and he likes it that way. He enjoys every bit of the magic world and balances his studies equally, so when it comes time to choose he won’t have to make an extra effort if he isn’t doing as well in that class. Despite his goofiness, most professors seem to take well to him, and he doesn’t get detention often. Oliver is just a good kid.
As for personal life, he has a few friends here and there - the Park twins for one… Jay is probably the cause of most of his antics, and Luke tends to clean up after them. He’s got study buddies, and crushes on all the girls (and guys) but isn’t the type of guy to go out and make friends; he’s relatively quiet and does like his alone time. You need help, though, and he’ll be there. Do you need someone to listen to your problems? He’ll be there. Do you need someone to write your essay for you? He’s not your guy, but he’d totally help!
Absolute rubbish on a broom, he’d never try out for quidditch. But, he does like home ec and is a pretty good cook, excelling especially in care of magical creatures and ancient runes, potions, and charms. You can find him down by the creature sanctuary more often than not, usually with his tie shoved in his pocket and his sleeves rolled up. He hates studying in the library, and finds the animals more of a comfort than most people. He’s pretty charming, though, and never intentionally says the wrong thing.
He doesn’t have the highest opinion of himself, but he’s working on it. Oliver is just fifteen after all, his birthday coming up in July 2013.
