Biography: (300 words minimum.)
Acuzio Knightlock was born on July 4th to Callidora and Rawlins Knightlock. He was the only child they would ever bear.

Callidora's maiden name was Finn, one of the smaller, yet still pure bloodlines. It was a dying breed, and she had found out that her younger brother, Arthur, had taken a muggle as a wife and bore a daughter. She never told Acuzio about his uncle or cousin's existence. She did not want him to believe that breeding with muggles was an okay thing to do. She did not hate mudbloods, she simply thought being pureblood granted you better opportunities in life. She was more than happy to meet and wed Rawlins. Acuzio is Elizabeth Knightlock's first cousin, his father being her father's brother.

When Acuzio was only 6, his mother was killed by a critical form of brain cancer. When they finally found it, it had spread too far to fully cure. He spent the remainder of his childhood with only his father, and the two are very close.

Acuzio developed a deep love for music all throughout his childhood. His mother started him on it when he was little, and it only grew when his father passed on an old pair of DT48 headphones, the same pair that had been passed down for generations. They forever remained in the same weathered box. His father told him they were from the very first manufactured pairs of headphones. As he went to Hogwarts, it was a strange day if you saw him without his headphones. He would dangle them around his neck during class, and pop them back on in the hallways.

At eleven, he started his trek at Hoggies. It took a little while for everyone to get used to his quirky ways, but as they did, he found  himself easily likable. He was not without enemies, though. Few and far between as they were.

Acuzio is a goof. He loves having fun, and if you meet him for five minutes, it's like you've known him for years. He's terrible with talking to beautiful women. He sort of clams up, then usually runs off. When he's passionate about something, he won't leave it alone. He's an average student, but he has to ask for help a lot. Often you can find him beat boxing, singing, or rapping whenever he's not in class. He's almost in his own little world. He loves being outdoors over being inside. Acuzio is thin and gangly, with dark hair and deep blue eyes. Hes about average height, and lacks much muscle mass. He keeps his hair flayed upward in a mess. He has a pearly white crooked smile.

It was impossible for Dianne to stay out of trouble. It wasn't that she was looking for trouble, it's just that trouble always managed to find her. Today she wished she could find something equally familiar but more comforting.

The five-year old girl hugged her puffskein closer to her and brushed her face in its soft fur for comfort. She had named him herself and he was always her special pet. No she was certain she had never gone down this side street before. Her anxiety increased every second as darkness fell as she walked down the road. A loud noise came to her left and she buried her face in her pet's fur completely. The scared girl bolted the opposite way slamming the both of them into the wall of the nearest building. Tottering back a few steps she found a door a few feet to her right and ran to open it. What light there was inside spilled out into the darkness and she spilled into the room.

Once in, she was caught between the impulse to curl her cloak up more tightly around her and loosen her grip on it. She wasn't alone anymore but she was now among strangers instead, which was nearly as terrifying. Her puffskein had recovered from the shock of the wall and now was purring contentedly as the girl hugged it, causing a mildly calming effect on the girl. Gathering her courage, she marched up to the nearest person, pulled on the nearest clothing hem and blurted out in a loud voice:

"I'm lost and it's dark and I wanted to know where I am but I'm not scared but I am worried that Sambundeakin is scared because he's little and needs something to eat and wants to go home."

She paused to draw a breath in her nearly never-ending sentence, "He misses my and his mommy."

To explain the scared girl held up the custard-colored puffskein. Sambundeakin the puffskein, however simply purred as if nothing on earth was wrong in the world.

Acuzio loved working with all the animals of the familiar Hogsmeade shop. He kept begging the owner for a job there, that way he could feel a bit of accomplishment as well as be somewhere he loved. He'd gave her every option, but the only one that seemed to work was volunteering. Which was fine to Zio. He didn't have anything better to do with his free time.

A particularly fiesty owlet had decided it needed to fly around the shop, just after closing time. Not only was it making Acuzio's life difficult, but it was leaving fluffy grey feathers everywhere and persisted in making loud hoots at every ten second interval. He resisted in yanking out his wand; if he used magic on the critter the shop owner would painfully murder him. If a creature is touched by a spell, usually an intelligent client could tell, and would refuse to purchase the animal, for fear of any sort of curse or manipulation. The shop owner was located in the office of the store, not particularly interested in helping Zio clean up or chase after his new pest friend.

Finally Acuzio snagged the owlet. At first it squawked in  protest,  before it snuggled into his palm, worn out from all the excitement. "That's enough from you, sir." He scolded, before he tenderly laid the puff of feathers in its cage. He stared at it, admiring the peaceful way it slept just after it wreaked major havoc. A sudden tugging at his pant leg snapped him from his thoughts, and he looked down to see a little girl.

He listened carefully, and when she was done with her little spout, he bent down and grasped her around her thighs with both arms. With a great grin upon his face, he hoisted the child up against  his chest, holding her gently. "My dear, we'll have to get him home straight away! Not a moment to lose!" With the same, silly grin on his face, he ran out of the shop, and with a few directions, ran her home as swiftly as he could carry her. With a plop upon her doorstep, and a few thankful words from her mother, the haphazard lass was safe at home again. For now.
