PERSONALITY Bjorn, if you didn't know him, can come across as a very scary and intimidating man. He's proud and confident. He's the sort of person that has an unbendable will, and the courage of a lion. He does not waver or cower before anyone, or anything. He is the sort of person that you do not want to make an enemy of, because he doesn't backdown. When you get to know him though these same traits are what make him charismatic and likeable. Before of his will you know that he will never waver on his values, and would never betray you. His confidence makes him outgoing. His courage makes him an excellent defender, and someone you know will always have your back. Bjorn works hard, and isn't afraid to get his hands dirty. He carries his own weight, and he will help out anyone he sees struggling. Bjorn is a very experienced person as well, and someone you would trust in a situation you know he's experienced. His confidence is reassuring and instills trust. He's also cautious and calculating. He doesn't do anything without thinking it through first and ensuring he's weighed all his options. Bjorn isn't necessarily a nice person, he doesn't give compliments easily, and he won't just flash you a smile. He can come across as sarcastic, and sometimes a bit aggressive. But he isn't a mean person either. Instead, he's a hardened, street smart man. So a "bad boy" but not a "bad guy". Bjorn is also a silent sympathizer and supporter of those in need. He helps those who need it. He'll leave money for families he knows can't make it. But he refuses to take credit for his deeds. He's just someone that doesn't like to see others suffer when they are seemingly decent people. So if he can do something about it without putting himself in a bad situation? He will. ORIGIN & RELATIONS Norway James Hook, deceased at 101, grandfather, was a pirate. Olav Krok, 88, father, retired pirate (He's still kicking and having fun, just doesn't want to run the crew anymore) Hilde Krok, 60, mother, seamstress. Signe Krok, 29, sister, fellow pirate Tove Krok, 23, sister, open profession (she's the blacksheep that isn't a pirate) HISTORY The Krok family wasn't always "Krok". It all started with James Hook. Hook, of course, wasn't his real surname. James was found on the doorsteps of an orphanage shortly after birth. He was given the surname "Hook" by the orphanage, mostly just because it was the first word that came to mind when he needed paperwork done. James was a muggleborn wizard, and eventually, was found by the Ministry, and taken into a wizarding home as a child. His adopted family wasn't exactly the most pleasant people. The father, despite being a wizard, worked on a ship, while the mother was a witch who was a stay-at-home mother. The father was a mean drunk, and beat all the children that were brought into the home whenever he wasn't on the sea. During that era pirates were still a very common and dangerous adversary on the seas, and James' adopted father worked on a ship that tried to hunt them. James' relief came in the form of Hogwarts, in which he learned all about magic. He graduated with high marks, and was especially known for his enchanting skills. After graduation he fell in with the wrong crowd, pirates. Soon he was sailing, like his adopted father, but they were on opposite sides of the law. As he grew older, and became more experienced, James eventually had his own ship. Through his magical skills, and a LOT of hard work, he enchanted the ship to fly. His ship, the Jolly Roger, became an urban legend among both muggles and wizards. A flying pirate ship that swooped in, ransacked, and then was gone before you even had time to comprehend what happened. Some say that James Hook was the inspiration to the villain of Peter Pan. The Ministry, of course, was very angry at the publicity of James Hook and his piracy. But, as Peter Pan grew in popularity, the legend became a part of the story, and the Ministry didn't have to start erasing memories, though they did start trying to catch this infamous sky pirate. But James was a cunning man. He traveled the world in his flying ship, terrorizing numerous nations, but then always escaping capture. James, eventually had a son, Olav. He didn't necessarily know about Olav's existence immediately, as Olav was the offspring of a one night stand in Norway. But when he did, he returned to the country to claim his son. Olav was raised by pirates, learning the ways of the craft from his legendary father. Eventually, James passed command of the ship to Olav, and settled in the Norwegian countryside with Olav's mother. At the ripe age of 101, James passed away peacefully in his sleep. Olav ran the ship just as well as his father. Many years into his reign, he met a woman many years younger than him, Hilde. They married, and she gave him three beautiful children. Deciding that the Hook name had been popularized too much, the family changed their named to "Krok" shortly before the birth of Bjorn. Bjorn was born during a storm. His mother's cries drowned out by the raging thunder and rain. Many say that the storm was welcoming it's kindred soul, Bjorn, into the world. Bjorn's upbringing was slightly different to his father's. He was raised both on land and in the sky. His father taught him the ways of the flying ship, while his mother taught him how to interact with normal society. When he was eleven, he received a letter from Durmstrang. His parents debated the invitation long and hard, before finally deciding to send him to Durmstrang. He needed to spend time with children his own age, and have a more professional learning than his father. Bjorn didn't mind Durmstrang. The harsh atmosphere reminded him of home. While he couldn't fly on the ship, he could still fly on brooms, and he took to Quidditch like a tick. He was quite good too, a strong and powerful beater. He was a force to be reckoned with when off the ground. As he neared graduation he had several professional team offers. He decided to play for a Norwegian team for a few years, but it wasn't the same. So, at the age of twenty, he quit professional quidditch and returned to his father's flying ship. Since then, he's been flying with his father, learning the ropes of command, and ransacking Gringott's dig sites and tombs. On Bjorn's 29th birthday, Olav turned over the mantle of captain to Bjorn, just as his father had, so that he could enjoy his retirement with his wife. OOC
