APPEARANCE:
Facial Properties: Jared has inherited his mothers graceful looks, there's no doubt about it. His eyes have a rather murky colour. They hover between dark blue, grey and green, which isn't really a colour, hence the murky expression. Nevertheless though, they are rather eye-catching; beautiful. They have an innocent yet flirtatious look to them, framed with thin, brown eyelashes, matching his hair. His hair is thick and cut it layers with bangs in front of his eyes. It's got a simple brown colour. He likes to keep it a bit messy, with his hangs to one side of his face. His hair is soft and has hints of curls in it. If he doesn't brush it (which he usually don't do) the ends of his hair will curl slightly, giving his hair a wave-ish appearance.
His face is slightly long-ish (not too long) with marked jawbones. His nose is strong and rigid, just like everything else on his face. His face in general is a strong one, the kind of face you don't easily forget. He's handsome, that much I can tell. He's got a dimple in his left cheek when he smiles (his very charming smile) and his lips have a slight pout-ish feature about them.
Something that Jared can never get rid of, is that slightly childish appearance over his features. Even though he gets some stubble from time to time, he still has this innocent childish appearance over him. He's sure than even when he's 27, he'll have the appearance of an 17 year old. Even though it annoys him slightly, he uses it to his advantage as much as possible.
Blessed with his mothers beauty as he is, he's very lucky, one might say. His skin is rather soft and smooth with little distinguishing features, which include zits. He has close to none of them. Lucky guy...
Physique: When it comes to Jared's body, you can say he's pretty lucky there too. It's not as if he has the most muscular body, cause he doesn't, but it's not lanky or too skinny either. Jared is totally comfortable in his own body. Jared is not the tallest one of guys, but he is by far the shortest, he stands proudly at 6 feet tall and weight around 136lbs. His body is average, one might say. It's kept in shape by his healthy eating and Quidditch. Although, he does lean a bit on the skinny side, it's not something to hang yourself up with. He feels completely normal.
The skin on his body is the same as the skin on his face, blemish free and smooth. It's got a creamy, yet slightly summer tanned touch to it. It's soft and clean. He likes to keep himself clean.
His feet are normal and his hands are normal. He's got small, flattish fingernails, which he unfortunately bites from time to time. He likes to keep them short. Aside from that, he seems to always give off an sort of airy clean impression.
When Jared walks, he walks rather casually, laid-back with a smile, wink or something of the sort. He seems fairly confided, his back up straight, yet not too straight. He seems proud and taller than he really is, if you get the picture. All in all, Jared is a very good looking boy.
PERSONALITY:
Jared is the kind of person, that once you've met him, you can't not like him. Sort of. Jared is a kind person. He's easy going and friendly.... most of the time. He likes to get to know people, talk to them, really get to know them and explore them, one might say, but it all really depends on the other person's will to let him. Jared's not a pusher, in that sort of way. He likes to give people their personal space but if he feels that they are pushing him away, he'll let them. In one way, one might see him as a rather kind person, in another way, one might say he simply doesn't care.
There is a lot to be said about Jared, he's not just your everyday guy. Sure, he does seem like the typical laid-back dude with his fair share of laughs and cries, but he really is a weird one.
Jared is the kind of guy you can be totally relaxed with, doing absolutely nothing at all, and the next moment, he'll be dressing up just for fun. He's spontaneous, flirtatious and feminine. Yes, feminine. Jared has been able to grasp his feminine side, and with that comes his quirk of liking boys as well as girls, AND finding his own sense of fashion style. Sure, he prefer girls, but he can't help but to keep his eyes of boys as well. He's confident at that, flirting with petty much anyone who will. Mostly, it's just friendly flirting, he does it just for fun. He's just like that. Fun. He doesn't mind being bored, cause he sees bored in a way to brainstorm till you can come up with something. He's rather restless you see, in a not-bored way.
So, grasping his feminine side and all, Jared loves to talk. Talks just pretty much about anything he knows. He'll just randomly begin to talk about his personal experiences about whatever you're talking about if there's nothing else to say. However, it's not always he who does the talking. He's very good at listening as well. He's the type of person you can joke around with all the time, but if you seriously need someone to talk to, he'll be there for you.
Judging from what he usually does, one can conclude that Jared is more or less restless. He needs to be doing something, even though it's not doing anything at all. He's curious, likes to explore and figure out things, new things. Although, that doesn't mean he's a genius at school, cause he's not. He's more or less average, tries his best. He succeeds in some subjects, and does less in others. Although he sometimes struggles, he is able to keep his energetic mood up.
When it comes to people, Jared is a people person. He's social and easy-going. He gives trust easily, but he may come off a bit as... arrogant. When people first meet him, Jared seems as a friendly, yet a bit arrogant, cocky guy. And if that's not all, Jared's got a bit of temperament. If you offend him, he'll be offended and hold a little grudge. And when he's in a bad mood, he's no longer friendly to meet, but simply a cocky tempered asshole. Aside from that minor detail, Jared is in general, a good guy when you meet him. He may come off as arrogant and slightly hyper (restless) but either way: friendly. He likes to be heard, and listen to others. When he meets new people, he likes to be seen, getting the attention. He doesn't exactly have stage fright.
Jared is a sort of passionate guy. He's a sucker for romance, and when he finds that certain someone, he'll never intentionally hurt them. He'll do pretty much anything for them. Talk to them, hug them, listen to them, kiss them... he'll just be there for them. He loved to flirt and try out new things, boys and girls. It doesn't matter, all you need is love.
Jared also has passions in other things. He loves music, mostly classical music. Personally, he plays the piano and he sings (he's got that hushed, rusty, sexy voice). He also plays the guitar, but he finds the piano a lot more graceful. Grace is all. Just like cooking. Jared thinks you need grace to cook a decent meal. Personally, he likes cooking. Although, he is a bit of a health freak. He likes to know what it is exactly he puts in his mouth. He doesn't like fast food too much.
Although Jared may come off as a rather carefree guy, he does have some black holes in his life. When he was little, his father used to beat him and his mother, but then, his mother killed him in defense, and they were freed. Jared was 6 at the time. Even though it doesn't seem to affect him at all, with his go-happy attitude, Jared still thinks about it, and he has a hard time respecting adults. One good thing about this though, Jared is a very patient and understanding guy. He can put up with pretty much anything. No matter what flaws you've got, he knows when it's just small flaws and not someone really bad... like his dad.
Joys comes in different forms, and Jared is the one for laughs. Although, he doesn't do it all the time, Jared has a small disrespect for rules. "Rules were meant to be bent," he says, and from time to time, he'll do a prank or two. He's not the meanest or most evil, but he can be a bit cunning in his work, yet he'll never tell on his friends, if he has any partners in crime. In that way, Jared is a bit mischievous, but totally trustworthy when it comes to those he care about.
All in all, Jared is a very easy going guy, nice and good-hearted. He has some flaws like, being lazy, sometimes acting before thinking, being a bit too honest, biting his nails, pretend sulking, slight disrespect for rules and authority, being a bit annoying and other small quirks, but who doesn't. All over, he is a very good guy.

HISTORY:
Place of Birth: France, Lyon
Currently: England, Devon

Jared's history is not one of them "all is grand and good thing". It begun with his mother, unlike most people where it begins with both parents, but no, it begins with his mother; Camille Dubois. Camille was beautiful singer in France. She came from a long line of Pureblood French wizards and witches, but they weren't like normal pureblood at the time. They were free and rather quiet and sweet by nature, they were the Dubois, fighting for equality and for everybody's rights.
Camille wanted so bad to be a great singer, and she mostly sang at bars. It wasn't like she didn't have money, but it was her passion. With her graceful good looks, she sang her way into many a man's heart, one of them was Thomas Moreau. Camille was 19 at the time, and foolishly fell in love with Thomas. The two became pregnant, and when Thomas found out, he left her for someone else. It broke her heart to know this and she hated him, but she still couldn't bring herself to get rid of the baby. She kept it, and with the help of her family, she gave birth to a beautiful baby girl, Coralie Dubois (Moreau).
Camille had always been a strong, independent woman, but she easily fell in love and she was a bit naive. She always thought the best of people, and some took advantage of this. 5 years after Coralie was born, Camille met the muggle Erwan LeBleu. He was strong and handsome man with murky, mysterious and unreadable eyes. She fell in love, and he fell in love with her too.
They got married and Jared LeBleu was born. He was a beautiful baby boy, had his mothers grace and beauty, and his fathers strong features. The small family moved to England shortly after Jared was born. It had been Erwan's wish, as he had gotten work there. Camille, foolish and blind, moved to the country of which she could not speak the language of.
The family seemed happy for four years. Coralie loved Jared, and she loved to babysit him. Jared was, as a child, very adventurous and curious. He loved food, to taste and try. He loved to draw and sing along with his mother (who still hadn't given up her dreams of singing). When Coralie was 11, she attended Hogwarts, being sorted into Ravenclaw. It was that autumn, it all begun.
Something just snapped in Erwan, like it sometimes does in people's heads. Perhaps it was because he had experienced it too as a child, but when he and Camille had a fight, it had ended with him hitting her. Of course, he had regretted it and begged for forgiveness, and she had forgiven him... but things weren't ever going to be the same. Jared, who was at home, seemed to get the worst of it, along with his mother. She was no longer the happy and graceful mother she had been. She was quiet and obedient, hoping she'd never be hit again. But it happened again and again. One might wonder why she never left, but perhaps her love from him convinced her that she could be able to fix it. But she couldn't.
When Coralie came home from school in the holidays, she would be hit once or twice too. It had all off a sudden become a habit. Jared and Camille took the worst, as Coralie was at school.
The abusing went on for two years, until one day, Camille reacted. Erwan had had a bad day, and when Jared had burst into tears (being 6 years old) for being scolded at for no good reason, Erwan had hit Jared so bad that he had begun to bruise very badly on his chin, and he had been pushed so hard that Jared had fell and hit something sharp, making him bleed from the head. Camille stepped in and got hit several times until she waved her hand in self defense, using magic to shield herself. Next thing, and Erwan was dead.
Jared never blamed her mother for it, cause he loved her so dearly. He knew it was self defense, even though he was only 6. Jared had never loved Erwan, or perhaps he had, the first 4 years old his life, but no longer. When Coralie came home, the small family had then became even smaller. But now, they felt safer.
Camille was afraid though, to fall in love again. But she knew she would. Besides, she wanted to find someone she could trust. She would not be so blind again. She had had too much bad luck in men. And she was right, she did fall in love again, this time with an English man. Camille had eventually learnt English and was again working as a part time singer, and part time shop clerk. She had met Jason Collins. Of course, she was weary at first, but something told her, that he might not turn out that bad.
Jared and Coralie were skeptical though. How could they trust him just like that? Still, they wanted to be there for their mother. Jared had seemed to have come out his his troubles childhood rather okay, but trusting people that easily, was still hard for him. He was pretending to though, for the sake of his mother.
The two siblings, Coralie and Jared was rather opposite really. Where Coralie was your typical bookworm and loved to learn and read, took everything very seriously, Jared was more laid-back and care-free. He still had that spark of curiosity from his early life. And he wanted to keep that with him.
When Jared was 9 years old, Zoe was born. Jared fell in love with her right away, she too bore the marks of the younger grace from Camille. Jared decided right there and then, that he would protect her against anything. That same year, Camille and Jason got married. Zoe was named Zoe Collins, after her birth father.
The year Jared turned 11, he seemed to be the happy kind of kid he is today. He loved Hogwarts, it was a completely knew world. His older sister attended her last year while he begun his first, it was all pretty exiting. The only thing that saddened Jared was the fact that he had to leave Zoe. The two siblings had grown pretty close, even though Zoe was just two years old. Jared would miss her, but would always look forward to every holiday and every chance he got to go back home.

Years of Experience: Um..... 11/2 I would say....
Sample Post: (taken from another site)
When Raine had found out that Zander was a wizard and he had found out that she was a witch, it was like something amazing had hit her, something beyond what she had ever imagined. This was Zander, the muggle who wasn't a muggle but in fact a wizard! He was magic, just like herself! For weeks now, there hadn't been a day passed that Raine hadn't found herself thinking back at the meeting with the cute musician she had met in the park back home. And when he had suddenly just appeared out of nowhere, a joy, much unlike anything Raine had ever experienced had come over her.
It wasn't that Raine was in love or anything, but she had really felt a connection between the two. Zander seemed like the type of person she could confide with without having to be someone else. She could totally be herself, which she loved. She couldn't stand being fake.
As Raine had entered the station with Zander, it was amazing how little she knew about him. Because as they had walked into the platform, a large crowd of girls had basically thrown themselves over Zander and pushed Raine out of the way. For a second or two, Raine had not realizes what had happened and she had simply stood there, staring and blinking before her brain functioned again. Fan girls? In the shadow of them all, Raine couldn't deny that for a second she found herself just a shadow on the wall. It wasn't that she wasn't used to it and didn't like it, Raine liked to be a background character, but then, she had expected things with Zander to be just a little bit different.
Just as she had feared the worst though, Zander had looked up and called her into his light. Raine didn't like it when all the girls had turned towards her with a rather mean look on their faces, no, she didn't like Zander's spotlight, but she had nevertheless simply smiled and followed him.
For the next nine hours, Raine had spent every minute with Zander, enjoying most of it. In the beginning, Raine had felt a bit out of place. There she was with someone who was obviously beyond popular at Hogwarts and for the first hour or so, a LOT of people had walked into the carriage to talk to Zander. For that hour, Raine had turned slightly withdrawn. She liked to meet new people, just not everyone at the same time. Having pulled up her feet and hugging them as she leaned on her head on her knees, she had watched people walk in and out of the carriage like it was bloody McDonalds. The visits had died away though, and after that, the two had talked.
It seemed that in those nine (or eight) hours, the two got to know each other a lot more. Raine got to know about his fame, which suddenly made it click in her mind why he had been so cautious when they had first met. Many things just seemed to fall into place. Still, Raine didn't look at Zander any differently than before, and she thought other people should do that as well. Why should he be treated differently because of fame.... just look at Raine who up until that point had no idea what a celebrity he really was.
As the light were dimmed and the train rolled into the platform, Raine found herself off the train with Zander having insisted on taking her trunk. Shrugging, Raine had taken her cat up in her arms and walked along side with Zander. Half was up to the carriages, Prince had jumped out of her hands to go exploring the woods. Raine didn't mind.
She looked up just in time to see a shadow of someone she'd gotten to know coming towards them with Zander not knowing anything. Wha... His question was answered by the taller boy Raine had met that very summer. Dylan, was it? Apparently the two knew each other and wrestled like boys mostly did. Raine looked away, feeling suddenly that she was interrupting a private moment.
I'd ask how you managed the ride without me, but I'm pretty sure I can guess.
Raine looked up as she felt her presence being brought up to the conversation. She glanced at Zander at his reply. He had been telling Dylan about her? But, they'd only met once. Had she really made such an impression om him? Raine blushed inwardly, thinking of how much she too had thought about him, although she didn't have anyone to share it with though.
How could I forget? Chocolate and fudge, right?
Feeling the question finally being turned to her, Raine smiled shyly. "Yeah, that's me. Although I don't remember what you had, I'm still that chocolate and fudge girl," she joked slightly, smiling a bit brighter.
Smiling, Dylan went into the empty carriage with a: "Well, come along now." Finally Raine looked up towards the carriages to follow in after Dylan. Having only followed Zander, she had not really payed any attention to where she was, and once she had, all she had seen then was Dylan. Now however, she got to look around, and what caught her eyes made her jump shy high with a small scream and back up with her back towards Zander who was right behind her. Raine's hand quickly found Zander's hand without thinking about it, her eyes looking at the dark horse like creature right in front of her. She felt her knees grow weak.
"W- what..... what is that?!" Raine asked, her voice cracking half the way as she looked into those terrifying white eyes. With her back still against Zander's front and her hand still clasped hard around his hand, she could do nothing but to stand frozen and stare at the creature in front of the carriage.
