Those with this patronus are noble and brave. Quick to defend those you care for and more than able to do so you make a formidable friend. You can come across intimidating to those with a milder temperament so try not to overpower others with your brave and forward approach. The core of your being is calm and capable, your bravery and nobility never drifts into being egotistical. Given these characteristics, it is not surprising many Stag patronus belong to Gryffindor House.

HISTORY: Rory is the second born son to Hamish and Iona Calderhead, a muggle and pureblooded witch. The boy grew up with muggle principles and gadgets and magic. His mum would always preach that magic was a tool like the ones his father used and should never become a crutch. The first three years of his life he spent helping his father fix things and watching TV with him. Of course, as a toddler, his only job was to hand his dad the tools he needed but he enjoyed watching him work. Muggles had to do things much slower than wizards, he discovered. Hamish would tell him that just made it more satisfying and he had to agree. When he was three, his mother gave birth to his baby brother, Alfred. Rory was obsessed with him from the moment his mum brought him home. Like a good big brother, Rory would help his parents take care of him. When he was old enough, Rory would play with him. The two were thick as thieves. Rory loved to make him laugh.
As the pair of them grew up, they’d spend time with Mum learning to fly and helping brew potions, then with dad they’d go fishing, camping, and playing ball in the yard. Rory loved his family with all his heart. They had so much fun together.
Then came his Hogwarts letter. He was expecting it to come, of course, but seeing it for the first time caused him so much joy. Alfie, however, was less than thrilled. Rory promised his little brother he’d write to him often, but the poor guy was going to miss him. He was going to miss him, too, but he couldn’t pretend he wasn’t excited to use magic for the first time.
Upon arriving at Hogwarts, Rory was sorted into Gryffindor. He kept his promise to Alfie and wrote every week, telling him everything that was happening. During holidays he went home, but was always excited to come back. And when the first year was over, his dad took him and Alfie on their yearly camping trip.
Second year came and Rory joined the Quidditch team. He loved everything about Quidditch and was an excellent beater. That year was one of the best he had at Hogwarts.
Just before his fourth year, Alfie got his letter. Rory was so happy his little brother would be joining him at Hogwarts. When his baby brother was sorted into Gryffindor, Rory cheered the loudest, standing and applauding as Alfie came to the table and sat with the first years.
Having Alfie at Hogwarts with him meant that Rory became his protector. Anyone who dared to pick on him had Rory to deal with. The years continued like this until his sixth year. Rory sustained an injury during Quidditch practice and had to sit the year out. He was devastated to miss out on a year of Quidditch, but he spent his recovery playing cards and studying with Alfie.
And this is to be his final year at Hogwarts. Rory is definitely worried about Alfie once he graduates, but he hopes to help Alfie learn to stand up for himself so he’ll be okay.This lovely character is being played by car! car has been roleplaying for a while, and play a whole ton on this site. car lives in the EST time zone, and you can reach them by discord
