Biography: (100 words minimum.)

The Morettis were an Italian-English family. Enzo was a very passionate man, both about his legacy and his family. He worked very long hours to make his parents proud, and eventually met an fiery English woman who matched him. Noemi was once an early childhood educator, but once she married Enzeno, the pair began a chain of authentic Italian restaurants in England.

After a few years passed, the couple gave up on having biological children. They shifted their focus to expanding their business and after a year of that, their miracle babies were born. Twins Paloma and Rosso were born just before Christmas, making it an even more joyous occasion for the family. Their darling daughter was born one minute and thirty seconds before Rosso, but that didn’t matter. He always acted like the big brother as the two grew up together.

The magic appeared in the twins when they were two. Both of them were sitting on the ground, babbling away, seemingly playing with a ball when it disappeared. A fit of giggles erupted when it appeared again, and so on and so forth. Enzo and Noemi weren’t sure what to do but love them, bless their hearts. They were so incredibly ignorant to the magical world until the children’s letters came and they fully immersed themselves into it.

Rosso loved his parents, but relating to them was so hard at times. It seemed like his twin was the only person who knew what he was going through -- always. And he enjoyed knowing that one person would forever have his back, no matter what. Even through all of his mistakes, which he made quite frequently.

He was the party goer, rule breaker, and all around rebellious kid. The exact opposite of his sister. Rosso exceeded all expectations set upon him, excelling in Charms and Divination, followed closely by quidditch. But as much as professors pushed for motivation, the boy pushed back in the opposite direction. The summer of 1963, before he was due to begin his final year at Hogwarts, Rosso James Moretti dropped out, much to his twin’s dismay.

Roleplay:
Reply as your character to the following:

Godric Park.

Overhead, the sky was a crisp blue, for once clear of the ever-pervasive spongy clouds and rain. The sun was a lemony-yellow presence, high in the Eastern sky, and in front of it zipped three broomsticks in a straight line, or something very like one. One... two..... three... the boys passed, their shouts of excitement echoing as they chased the snitch, a tiny shimmer reflecting the sunlight.

Far below was another, much smaller broomstick.

It trugged along the ground, hugging close to it like a sluggish choo choo train and occasionally shuttering in protest. This was because said stick was currently being occupied by a very small girl who was tugging upward on the front of it with all her might, trying to coax it into doing what it had been expressly designed NOT to do.

"John, I said wait up!" The tiny girl squealed, giving the broomstick another tug.

Begrudgingly, it drifted upward a foot, and then sank, depositing the troublesome girl safely on the ground. Janey Hurst was not pleased. In a huff, she hopped off the toy safety broom, grabbing it firmly and thrusting it handle first into the turf.

Her brother was such a beast. He NEVER let her play! She folded her arms, seething blue eyes fixing on another figure nearby.  "You!" She barked, much more sharply than she meant to.

"...Do you want to play?"

Roleplay Response:
Why Paloma wanted to meet in Godric Park of all places was beyond him.

She knew that he despised children, with their little dirty hands and annoying tendencies. Those shrill voices that always seemed so demanding for no reason but to bother those around them. He counted his stars every single day that he and his sister had no younger siblings, for the boy would have surely gone mad years ago.

As he strolled the park, waiting for her to show up, the little devils he avoided found their way over to him. The loud fighting between siblings overwhelmed him, bringing a temper to the surface. Rosso ignored the little children, kept walking, hands fidgeting in his pockets until she yelled at him.

“NO, I DO NOT WANT TO PLAY WITH YOU,” he yelled back at her. As soon as it happened, the teenager felt a tremendous amount of guilt for yelling at someone so young. Clearing his throat, Rosso stopped walking and faced her. “I’m sorry, but I’m meeting someone. I don’t have the time, doll.”

Hi Rosso,

Your application looks good, there's just one thing I want to clarify before we get you accepted.

You mention that Rosso is 16 (born December 1946), but then in your biography, you state:

The summer of 1963, before he was due to begin his final year at Hogwarts, Rosso James Moretti dropped out, much to his twin’s dismay.

If Rosso is currently 16 (in Summer 1963), then he will be going into his sixth year, not his final (seventh) year at Hogwarts. You can either age him up a year and still have him drop out right before his final year or change your biography so that he drops out before his sixth year instead.

If you could repost your entire revised application (editing either his birthday or his biography), then we'll be more than happy to take another look. Thanks!

Just a note that he would be 17 for Summer '63, not 16, but as this is a minor error this application has been accepted!
