APPEARANCE Milo stands at a slender 5’7. Having great genes means that he has a boyishly handsome appearance. He has a number of piercings on each ear. He normally wears clothes that were bought or acquired second hand, or from zero waste manufacturers. His original hair and eye color are dark brown, though he loves to change that up, using magic to dye his hair and even wearing contacts to change his eye color. He likes to play around with his hair color especially. His favorite hair colors seem to gravitate towards blond or red variations. Though he’ll usually change that based on his mood. With the use of magic, he can change it when he likes, though he usually does default to blonde. | pronunciation mai-low bahs-tee-ahn row-s nickname bass, bastian, mai age & birthday 19 05 may 2007 gender & pronouns male - he/him blood status half-blood sexuality bisexual face claim lee felix | ||||||||||
PERSONALITY Milo is usually a happy person. While the world has it’s problems, he prefers to see the good. He isn’t one to ignore the bad, but rather, try to find the light. Sure, bad things happen. Oftentimes when a personal bad happens, he does have to take his time to process it, where he takes time for grieving where he works through processing and pondering what happened. Growing up in a frugal household, he became quite big on grinding ways to reuse what they already had. Cloths were passed from one child who outgrew it down to another who had just outgrown their own. From this, and his time with his grandparents, Milo really grabbed onto the idea of living a waste free lifestyle. Searching second hand shops, flea markets, and places that were getting rid of something just because regulation required them to. He grew fascinated with the idea of wind and solar energy. As he rebuilt a home on his family land, Milo found everything second hand, making the structure out of old shipping containers, and filling it with items he had found. The land thrived, and while the magical foliage was grown in secret, through the help of walls, and enchantments, he also planted a garden of regular fruits and vegetables. Making friends with like minded individuals, he offered to trade his more lucrative stolk for something they had. The most common would be a basket of vegetables and fruit for a basket of eggs. Though this, it is rare that the boy goes shopping for most food items. When he does he is sure to shop items that are in bulk, using his own refillable containers. While he knows that his lifestyle isn’t for everyone, it is the way that he finds to be the happiest. Milo values all life as important. While he’s not one to live a completely vegan lifestyle, he uses what he has. When he does get a meat item, it is always from a free range, and ethically sourced meat. He usually gets his meat from farms in the area who have livestock and are willing to trade fairly for it. Milo loves to help out those in need. He grew up in a home that didn’t have much, and as one of the older kids, he helped where he could. He loves to do that now. While he does work as a linguist, he also helps others by tutoring them in the language of their choice. Sure, this isn’t entirely selfless, he does charge them, but not all that much. He also sells the goods from his magical garden to potioneers and anyone else who needs fresh ingredients. Having a sort of personal Apothecary, he happily sells to those who need it. The boy isn’t one to advertise either of these services, but rather usually works on a recommendation system, or through word of mouth. Milo loves to live in the moment. Nothing could be better than doing something spontaneous, and doing it with friends. While Milo does work hard, he also really likes to play hard. Often drinking while going out to have fun. The more alcohol he intakes, the more flamboyant he gets. When it comes to romantic encounters, Milo always prefers to think the best of people. He isn’t one for one night stands, or putting everything out to start with. He prefers to take his time getting to know someone, building an emotional connection before the physical one grows. Having a genuine connection with a person is important when it comes to his friends and partners. While he isn’t one for pranks, usually, one that he does often enjoy is slipping into another language when others aren’t expecting that. Seeing their faces when they realize that he can not only speak with them in another language, but that he could understand anything they may have said in that language. ORIGIN & RELATIONS Born and raised in Australia Moved to UK the summer before 6th year Jang Gok Hye - father - Not in the picture Romana Rose - mother - Australian ministry worker ___ Jang Gok - older Paternal Half sibling ___ Rose - older maternal Half sibling ___ Rose - 22 year older full sibling ___ Jang Gok - younger Paternal Half sibling - unknown ___ Rose - younger half sibling ___ Rose - adopted sibling ___ Rose - adopted sibling ___ Rose - adopted sibling Nancy Rose - Maternal Grandmother - deceased, former land/garden owner William Rose - Paternal grandfather - deceased, former land/garden owner HISTORY Romana Rose had always been a tenacious woman. She moved from her family home in the British Isles to Australia. There she met the dashing Jang Gok Hye. She was dashing, and they had a passionate romance. She knew that he had a child before her with another woman, but she didn’t mind that. Soon the two were living with each other. Marriage wasn’t something they ever really, and honestly talked about, but still they welcomed a child into their lives. They continued to live happily. They lived as if they were married, though no legal documents tied them together. With their first child, she insisted that they were given her name. She was, after all, the one who carried them. Hye was a flight risk, she knew that. And if he was to leave, she wasn’t going to chance her own child having his surname. Romana knew that she wasn’t going to go anywhere, she would stick with her child Milo was born a few years later, the couple living their best life now had a second bundle of joy to raise. Romana stuck with the same policy as her first child. Milo was given his mothers name, instead of his fathers. Milo has very few memories of his father. In all honesty, he wouldn’t be able to pick the man out of a line up. Hye left around Milo’s third birthday. This didn’t stop his mother. She knew that he would eventually leave her. She was happy with their life, and had many happy memories. But she knew that it wouldn’t have lasted forever. She was just glad that she had what time she was given. Around this time, she got her dream job in the Ministry. The woman worked hard, and would often bring her two squirming children along to play quietly in her office while she worked. Romana always had a kind heart, and while she never got too close with another man, she did bear another child. Now with three kids, times got a little harder. Their mother was good with saving and penny pinching, so the kids never seemed to notice. She worked hard, and as the kids grew older, she relied on the older one(s) to care for the younger. Even as a child, Milo proved to have a green thumb, and picked up reading and talking rather quickly. When eleven, the boy started wizarding school. Following his older sibling to the school. As he went through school, it became more evident that he simply understood certain things. Herbology was something that simply clicked. There were even times when he was caught correcting the professor. During this time, his mother also adopted some kids who had been put in a bad situation. The kids joined their family and while money was even tighter, the kids all got along great. They understood patience and worked hard to help their mother when they could. Completing his fifth year with top marks, Milo was given the option of going to live with his grandparents in the British Isles. It was clear, by this point, that herbology was a passion of his and his maternal grandparents had a family home that had been curated to have a number of magical plants on their property. These plants had not just been planted, but had been thriving for multiple familiar generations. So, the next summer, He packed his chests and was off to live with his grandparents. Moving to another country wasn’t easy, and it was definitely quiet in the new house. But Milo took everything in stride. He took his time in the summer acquainting himself with the family house elf, and the number of plants and creatures that lived on the large amount of land. The chance to work with such magical plants every day was an amazing opportunity that he couldn’t have passed up. There was some concern about him going to Hogwarts, what with the recent explosions and bad press the school got last year. But the school had a good Herbology program, and it was much too late to change plans and fly back to Australia for school. Sure, the thought about going to a new school made him nervous, but he didn’t have much time to think about it until an owl came to deliver a letter from Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. There, Milo was sorted into Hufflepuff, and was welcomed into the house like an old friend. But it seemed as though he wasn’t the only “new” student, as the school welcomed two other schools for some tri-wizard tournament. It was exciting enough. But what brought him more joy, was the fact that he was able to learn and converse in other languages. Learning other languages came easily to him, it was almost like magic. When the school year was over, he said farewell to his new friends, and the tragic news of their explosion shook him up. Paired with the loss of his grandfather during the summer, the next year would prove to be difficult. But he was able to work through his grief and become his happy self again. His seventh year brought students from North America, and again, he continued to make plenty of friends. As expected, Milo graduated with high marks in Herbology. He had planned on returning to Australia for a time, to visit family he hadn’t seen in a while. Unfortunately the Hags Fever quarantine had been put into place. Months after graduation, there was a tragic fire in grandparent’s home. The family home was destroyed, along with many family memorabilia and heirlooms. He, his grandmother, and their house elf all made it out safely, but Milo’s grandmother was hospitalized at St. Mungos from the experience. Unfortunately she didn’t live very long from there. With the death of his grandparents, their will was brought to light. Milo had been left the family land, instructed that he was to care for the plants to the best of his ability. Along with the land, he was given their house elf to help maintain the many plants and creatures that inevitably would come back. During this time, Milo started working for the ministry as a linguist expert. After a grieving period, Milo rolled up his sleeves and got started. He started off by building a new house where the old one had stood. He created the structure out of old, used, and recycled shipping containers. Using some magic, it wasn’t hard to put everything together. Ensuring that the structure was safe, and livable. With little that survived the fire, he had to get new things to put into his new house. Looking through donated furniture, swap meets, flea markets, and anywhere else where things were simply being thrown out because it was going out of style. Now that he has finally started to settle in his new life, he cut back his hours at the ministry, and started to sell potion materials from what he harvested from his magical plants. Milo worked hard to become self-sufficient, and to limit his carbon footprint, he’s now just trying to live his best life. OOC
