CHARACTER STRENGTHS AND SKILLS:
-Dark Arts: Ed is different from his sister in this way, because he actually enjoys the Dark Arts.

But now, he is Co-Leader of the Dark Followers.
-Quidditch: Back in Ireland, Ed was Captain of the Portrush Panda's Quidditch team at his local school of Wizardry, he also played as a Beater, and is hoping to be a Beater on the Slytherin team.

CHARACTER HISTORY
------------------------------------------------------------
Early Years: Edward grew up to a wealthy family, but a normal lifestyle. His parents were modest people while he grew up, meaning that he never usually lived on the higher end of society. He was first introduced to the game of Quidditch at the age of ten, one year before he attended a local Irish school of Wizardry. Since then, Ed was always playing the sport and loved every moment of it.
Hogwarts Years: Ed's school life was obviously not the best to his abilities, he usually gave up on homework and assignments. If he wanted to, Edward could get great grades, but in this way, he is lazy, as he never feels like doing his work because there was always something better to do. He made many friends throughout the year, and always kept a close watch on his sister. He can also be seen as a class clown, making him well-liked by most people, though he can be extremely self-conscious.
