t h e . p e r s o n a l i t y[/center][/color][/size][/font]
DISLIKES: being told what to do, seeing his family hurt, rainy days when he's trying to get things done outside, when people harm nature in any way, hearing that his siblings either mouthed off or disrespected his mother or father, seeing a dragon being mistreated, when girls just play with his mind, the taste of burnt food, not being able to eat his mother's cooking since he's on his own now, not being closer with his younger siblings as much as he'd like to be

WEAKNESSES: girls with long legs, gets frustrated easily, tends to work out during his free time since he doesn't have a wife of girlfriend, still listens to his mother when she bosses him around, jellybeans - any time that he has them he ends up eating them faster than he realizes, sometimes second guesses himself on little things, doesn't like many animals besides dragons, saying no to his baby sister, when he was in school his weakness was history of magic because it just couldn't hold his attention, mom's homemade apple pies
PRIORITIES: family, dragon taming, finding a girlfriend
BOGGART: another sibling of his or parent dying by the wand of someone else, never finding the right girl for him, losing his job to someone with much less experience than him
ERISED: Charlie longs for female companionship. He won't ever admit to wanting and/or needed a female in his life as more than just a friend, but deep down, that's all he is really looking for. He wants someone to wake up to every morning, someone to be able to take home to his mother for approval.
VERITASERUM: Charlie's biggest secret was the day he ended up in the hospital for three weeks. (His worst memory.) He never told his mother about it, nor any of his siblings, besides his big brother, Bill. The two boys are close, so Charlie confides in him with just about everything. Charlie won't ever tell his mother about this though, because she'll be the first one to make him quit his job.
PATRONUS: Form: Dragon. Charlie's best memory was the day he graduated and was asked to study to become a dragon tamer. Charlie had always been an adventurous guy to start off with, but being able to work so closely with such magnificent creatures was so incredible for him.
PENSIEVE: Charlie's worst memory would have to be the day that he thought that he was going to die on the job. He was doing his normal routine with a dragon that he had grown pretty attached to. Said dragon had been at the establishment that he worked at for a long time and after awhile, she grew to trust Charlie. When a newer employee put a dragon into the sanctuary that the female dragon was already in, she quickly became something to fear. She started thrashing her tail around, spitting fire at the other dragon, obviously distressed about the incoming dragon. Needless to say, Charlie was stuck in-between the fight between these two dragons and he was badly burned and had a few broken bones from being tossed about from one of the dragons' tails. He was eventually his so badly that he was knocked unconscious and woke up three weeks later in the hospital. He had never been so scared in his life before.
PERSONALITY OVERVIEW: Being the second eldest of the Weasley clan, Charlie always looked up to his big brother, Bill. There were times that he would be jealous of his older brother, as well as times that he would be in awe of him. When the next of the Weasley boys joined the family, Percy, Charlie soon realized that he wasn't going to be the baby of the family anymore and soon resented baby Percy. Although, when the family didn't stop at Percy, Charlie soon felt sorry about resenting Percy. After all of the Weasley children were born, he grew to lover them all. Being family-oriented is something that makes Charlie who he is today. Without his family, Charlie would definitely be lost in the world. He leans on them to get him through each day, even if he or they don't even realize it.
A requirement of being a dragon tamer is to not scaring so easily, nor being afraid of being up close and personal with dragons. Even though Charlie has been a dragon tamer for a number of years, he still gets nervous being around them, because they're such temperamental creatures. Being a little nervous around dragons still doesn't mean that Charlie shakes in fear while he's on his way to work. In fact, it really just means that he's so much less afraid of everything else in the world, because he knows what's out there and nothing really seems to be as scary as facing an angry fire-breathing dragon on a daily basis.
Romance. It's always been one thing that Charlie has never really been good at with a girl. Sure, he can put on that pretty boy charm for the first two or three dates, but most girls don't stick around after that. Some of them find that he's way too adventurous for them to handle and when they find out that he's a dragon tamer, they normally back down because they're afraid to get attached to him and then have him die on the job. Charlie is definitely awkward when it comes to romance and the whole love thing now that he's an adult. He felt that being in school and being romantic and having a girlfriend was much easier than being an adult and trying to sort all of the things out.

MOTHER: Molly Weasley
SIBLINGS: Bill - older brother, Percy - younger brother, Fred - younger brother, George - younger brother, Ron - younger brother, Ginny - younger sister
OTHER FAMILY: -
SOCIO-ECONOMIC STATUS: middle class
HISTORY OVERVIEW: Growing up in the Weasley household was always the best place to grow up in. He already had one older brother, Bill, who he had gotten along with really well, but soon enough, the house was being filled with multiple pairs of feet from a few more younger siblings. During his childhood though, Charlie grew to love the size of his family as the years went on. Even though there were more than enough Weasley children for two or three families, all of the siblings were close. Charlie and Bill always seemed to be the closest though, besides the twins of course, just because they were the oldest two and weren't very far off in age at all. Everything changed though when Ginny, his baby sister, was born though. Charlie was still closest with Bill, but he was soon very protective of his baby sister, Ginny. When they were younger and even until this day, Charlie would do anything and everything in his power to protect his baby sister from harm and heartbreak.
During his years at Hogwarts, Charlie excelled in his classes, just like his older brother, Bill, had. After Bill had set such a good example with the professors at Hogwarts, Charlie had nothing else to do but do well in all of his classes. Charlie excelled most in Care of Magical Creatures and Defense Against the Dark Arts, though. He seemed to just understand these two subjects best out of all the classes he had been taking until he graduated. As well as being on top of his studies, Charlie was an exceptional quidditch player as well. He was so good at the game that he made the house team as a seeker and eventually went on to be the captain of the team. Many people told him that he should have gone on to play professional quidditch, but the male didn't want to get caught up in all the fame and glory. He liked not being in the spotlight of the world and he had preferred, at the time, to stay well away from it. Unfortunately for Charlie, sometimes he still second guesses himself and wonders what it would have been like if he had taken the opportunity he had handed to him to play professionally. Although, he often let's the idea go, because he loves his job as a dragon tamer.
After his graduation from Hogwarts, Charlie found himself heading to Romania to do something that he always found to be utterly fascinating; taming dragons. His mother didn't support this idea very much at all, because she didn't see the need or fascination of possibly being killed at any time while on the job. Unfortunately for the Weasley matriarch, her son didn't listen to her and went off to Romania to train for the job he wanted. While in Romania, Charlie had a few girls interested in him and he found them to be awfully pretty, so he, in the beginning, found work hard to focus on. Then again, the boy was fresh out of school and his hormones were still unbalanced. After not really getting anywhere with any girls that found him and his job exciting, Charlie kept himself focused on his job and making sure that he was going to be able to support himself and hopefully a family in the future. Everything seemed to be going pretty well for the young male, except for one thing. He lacked companionship and a girlfriend. After being in Romania for a number of years, the constant loneliness of his apartment was something that really started getting to the male and he soon found himself in search of a roommate. Though, he never really accepted anyone to be his roommate, because he was sort of looking for someone to fill the void where his family should have been, mainly because they had been so far away from him for so many years.
On to the present though. Charlie decided that his family needed him back home, so the male transferred to a closer dragon taming facility so that he would be closer to his family. His mother told him that it wasn't necessary, but Charlie was the second oldest, so that meant that he and Bill needed to protect their family. Though, Bill also had a few things going on in his own life, so Charlie stepped up to the plate. Now that Charlie is closer to home, he's decided that starting a family would be something that would keep his mother happy; plus, the poor guy is kind of tired of being alone all of the time.

YOURSAMPLE:
It was another one of those days where Lucy had been so sick, she didn't want to do much of anything. She was coughing so badly, her entire body hurt. The poor girl was weak, but she didn't want to stay in her dorm room longer. The four walls around her were dull and boring, not to mention that her roommates had all left to go other places. They had probably been working on their assignments, but Lucy had been coughing so badly that they probably hadn't been able to concentrate on their work. Lucy had given up on her own assignments because her coughing had gotten so bad that even she wasn't able to concentrate very well. Closing her text books, Lucy decided that she would return to her studies later on that evening, but for now, she needed to be anywhere but her dorm room. The girl needed to be outside so that she was able to get her mind off of her disease. Once her things were put away neatly on top of the trunk located at the end of her bed, Lucy realized that she was probably going to need some assistance from someone in the Hufflepuff house so that she was able to finish the assignment. With a paper to write and her constantly coughing, the entire thing would be written in a jumbled mess. If she could verbally speak her paper, someone may have been able to write it out for her so that it was at least legible.
Making her way out of her dorm room and then out of the common room, Lucy had finally decided on a place that she was going to go to just sit down and relax and hope that she was going to stop coughing so damn much. When Lucy stepped outside of the gigantic stone castle, she started on the path that led to the school’s quidditch pitch. She was hoping that walking around the pitch grounds for a little while was going to help her be able to relax her lungs for a few minutes and let them relax a little before she started to cough uncontrollably again. Although, after only a few minutes, Lucy found herself feeling pretty fatigued and she knew that she was going to have to stop moving around so much and let her lungs rejuvenate. Deciding that she was just going to sit on the green grass below her feet, Lucy walked over to one of the towers that held the Gryffindor student seating during the actual quidditch matches and leaned her back up against one of them. With her body now on the ground, Lucy knew that she should have brought her homework outside with her, seeing as how the fresh air was helping her breathe a little bit better. The fresh air was something that her mother had told her would help her be able to breathe better and that “dirty air” would only further clog her lungs. The youngest daughter of Percy Weasley had so many health related problems; she felt that she wasn’t ever going to heal properly. So much for having a fun childhood and an adventurous adulthood.
