Prefect, Head Boy, Order of the Phoenix, Gringotts
Family:
Parents: Arthur and Molly Weasley Siblings: Charlie, Percy, Fred (deceased) and George, Ron, and Ginny Spouse: Ex-wife Fleur Delacour-Weasley Children: Victoire (7 years), Dominique (5), and Louis (3)
Blood Ancestry:
Pureblood, not that it matters to him. Some think him tainted by Fenrir’s contamination, but he’s not a werewolf, just moodier than usual once a month.
Physical Description (Please include link to your PB):
Domhnall Gleeson. Tall, thin and fit, with red hair he’s been keeping shorter for the past several years, and tries not to let his scruff get out of control. Face that obviously is used to smiling, and some scars that are faded by time.
Personality:
Generally very outgoing and jovial, with a smile and a good word for everyone. He is taken with fits of brooding, has been since he gained his scars, but it’s been even worse ever since the divorce. However, he tries to be his best self, especially for his children’s sake.
First Impression:
Another Weasley? Which one? Oh, that one! (with varying reactions) Handsome but isn’t he the one who just got divorced?
Strengths:
Responsible – Bill is responsible, sometimes to a fault. This also means he’s a very hard worker. Loyal – Bill is also loyal nearly to a fault, as well. Brave – In work and personally, no one, not even his ex-wife, can say he’s not brave. Sense of humor – he still has a good sense of humor, though it can be somewhat cynical at times. Passionate – everything he does, he does with all of himself.
Weaknesses:
Temper – Bill has a temper, as many people can attest to. He’s especially testy around the full moon. The public has been witness to some of his and Fleur’s fights, as well. Jaded – After everything the last couple of years, he can be jaded and cynical about life and love. Stressed – he has been very stressed for a long time, and needs to learn how to let go again.
Magical Specialties:
Defense, Curse Breaking, Arithmancy
Why has your character joined the hit Wiz-TV Show The Magic of Love?
After his very nasty divorce was finalized about a year ago, all Bill has really done is work and take care of his children. He hasn’t taken any time for himself, and his mother and his boss both think it’s high time he takes a break. They colluded and got him put on the show. Though he was upset to begin with, part of him is relieved to be given this opportunity to do something for him.
Relationship history:
Bill dated around in Hogwarts, though he was serious about his studies. He had a few relationships after Hogwarts but none of it got genuinely serious until he met Fleur Delacour and started a relationship with her at Gringotts. They were married in 1997, and survived the war together and had three children. They were very happy, for a time, though there were the typical bumps as well.
Two years ago, when Louis was about a year old, their problems grew more serious. Bill worked too much – Fleur had too much on her hands. They accused each other of cheating, though no one really knew if there was truth in those accusations. They fought all the time, they’d have sex, and they’d fight some more. They tried to keep it from the children, but sometimes it was impossible; often it was either loud fighting or cold silences. They tried to make it work, for the children, but in the end, everything just fell apart at the seams.
It was a very public, rather nasty divorce, all in all, no matter that they did try to keep it private, for the children if nothing else. It was final almost a year ago now.
What sort of witch/wizard are they looking for at TML?
He’s not sure he’s actually looking for anything serious. Someone to have fun with would be nice. Really, really nice. He hasn’t had much fun in a long time. If something more comes out of it, it’d be all right, but if not, well…
Anything else?
It would be fantastic if Fleur somehow ended up on the show too.
