basic info
blood status:
Halfblood
sexuality:
Unexplored
wand:
9" Acacia wood, dragon heartstring core
playby:
Zayn Malik
appearance:
Due to his young age, unlike his playby Zak does not have any tattoos on his body. What he does have, though, is a whole lot more facial hair than what his fellow 6th year students. He's tall and gangly, owed mostly because he's not got a very big appetite. Zak keeps his clothes impeccable at school, even if they're not of the greatest quality. His eyes are dark and brooding, he chews his nails and Zak wears his house colours with pride.
education and jobs
schooling & status
Ravenclaw 6th year, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
current occupation:
N/A
personality
likes:
Studying - you'll rarely see him not practicing magic or without a book in his hand.
The colours blue & silver - especially if they are used together. Isn't it fortunate that he became Ravenclaw
Gulub jamun - it's one of the only foods that Zak will eat when he's stressed or upset.
Alchemy & Potions - Zak is good at almost all subjects except for herbology, but alchemy he's begun recently and potions are his favourite classes.
Trying new things - except he gets frustrated quickly when he's not instantly good at them. Patience is not one of this young man's virtues.
dislikes:
Flowers - has a pretty severe hayfever reaction to them.
Cats - due to the hayfever
Going home on the breaks - in fact, if he doesn't have to then he stays at Hogwarts.
When Ravenclaw loses Quidditch - to anyone, really, he isn't keen on anyone else winning.
When he's not the best - he has a wild competitive streak and has, on more than one occasion, been sent to the Head of House for being a little brat about something.
overall personality:
This little guy has so many chips on his shoulder he could open his own fish 'n' chips shop in Brighton during the summer holidays and still have plenty leftover. Whilst the reasons will be explained a bit better in the following history section, suffice to say Zak can come off as a seriously sour kid more often than not. He doesn't like muggles or muggleborns, yet he shares DNA with a set of three now. He doesn't like things that set off his horrible hayfever like ... you know... all the typical things "happy people" like, like flowers and grass and cute little kittens. He doesn't like when you get better grades than him - but good luck even trying to come close to his own intellect. He doesn't like the fact that his bed at home is now so comfortable he sleeps almost as soon as his head hits the pillow. He doesn't like that he can't help but smile when the triplets goo-goo-gabba-blabba. He doesn't like how hard his step-father tries to be his friend that he spends time doing interesting things that broaden his non-magical skill set. He doesn't like that his new step-mother is almost the same age as him or that she makes amazing gulub jamun. He hates that he has a better relationship with the muggle than he does with his pureblood father.

history:
Soon after graduating Hogwarts, young Zafar was not exactly the pride of the Shafiq family when he brought home his pregnant girlfriend and half-blood Amie to meet the parents. There are some parts of this story that change depending on who told it. His mother Aime now claims that she was but a pawn used and seduced at a young age by a charming socialite in order to keep himself from an arranged marriage. His father Zafar says that he wouldn't have been so stupid if it weren't for young, passionate, love and that their story is an unfortunate cautionary tale. Needless to say, the pair got married quickly but after the birth of their son it did not last.
Zafar moved on to finally marry the woman he was meant to have. Zak was not welcome in the home and Aime struggled to raise her son on her own. It wasn't that his mother's family weren't supportive, but Aime was always a strong, independent type that wanted to prove she hadn't screwed herself over. Once the step-mother passed away, his mother finally had an opportunity to pursue her own career as an auror because Zafar became much more present in Zak's life. That was a hard time for adjustment, as he'd previously only been a 'weekend dad'. Now he was a 'weekend and mum's training' dad. So until he was old enough to be left alone at home unsupervised, Zak felt like a mere chore to his parents with slightly more connection to his mother than his father.
Things weren't perfect but they were 'life'. Until all of a sudden things all unfolded very quickly and his mother told him that she was now getting married to a muggle of all things. Zak remembers looking at his mother like she had two heads. In fact, the announcement brought out Zak's first sign of magic - their couch blew up. True to form, Aime had another whirlwind marriage and Zak decided not to focus on that at all because he'd gotten his letter for Hogwarts and thankfully his muggle stepfather couldn't use his shopping for school-supplies as an excuse to 'bond'.
At Hogwarts , things went from bad to worse pretty quickly. There were murders and Zakariya feared for his life because his new last name of Willowmoore was not a known wizarding name - maybe he'd be mistaken for a muggleborn because of his mother's choices? The fact that there was a known muggleborn that had attended many moons ago - Xenon's brother - only added to Zakariya's terror. Two years later his muggleborn step-sister became a Ravenclaw as well so that wasn't great. Was he worried she'd be another victim or was he worried about being painted with the mudblood brush? You decide. Then enter the triplet half-bloods (or were they technically only 1/4 bloods? Whereas Zak was, at the least, 3/4 ?)
Late last year, Zak's father announced that he was re-marrying and the news didn't go over well considering his new step-mother would only be 4 years older than himself. Zafar still hasn't let his son know that he's expecting their first child in September, so that's going to be another chip to add to this boy's shoulders.
