BOGGART His father, though he can't place quite why.
MIRROR OF ERISED To find someone that knows and understands him and still sticks around.
PATRONUS Red Panda, mainly due to their solitary nature and tendency to run from trouble rather than face it head on. Evrain isn't a coward, he would just prefer not to be like his parents and do something that he might regret if he hurts someone more than he meant to.
PERSONALITY
Evrain is a painfully shy person. He has never made friends easily, and the older he gets, the more stupid he feels even trying. He has never had a relationship, and what friendships he has had were through letters because that is the best way that he could express himself. He is extremely intelligent and emotionally deep, but he has difficulty speaking around other people. It's all to the extent that his teachers have accused him of cheating in class because his written work was so much better than the simple, quiet responses that he would give in class when he was called on. Only around his family is he really able to be himself without the crippling social anxiety getting in the way.

Like a lot of people with anxiety, Evrain channels a lot of his thoughts and feelings into creative outlets. He is an artist and a writer. Most people don't know about this, but they don't know about his summer life, either, in which he practices physical combat. The scar on his face comes from this training with his father, and it simply adds to the 'bad boy' image that he has. If his shyness wasn't enough of a hurdle for him Evrain is also intimidating to other students for how quiet he is being coupled with leather clothing and the facial scar. And... he might have defended his sisters once or twice, but he never raised fist nor wand to any of their enemies.

He feels emotions very strongly. He doesn't like knowing what his parents did before he was born, and can't help but judge them for it. He loves them all the same, but doesn't think that he likes his father. His mother he does, mostly because he has just always been more of a mama's boy. He wants more than anything to find people who are willing to get to know him, and maybe even care for him, the person that he is. He has a rather feminine mindset and also feminine hobbies including sewing and poetry, which he hides from his father because he knows that he wouldn't like them.

Remember, if the time should come when you have to make a choice between what is right, and what is easy, remember what happened to a boy who was good, and kind, and brave, because he strayed across the path of Lord Voldemort.

HISTORY Life has never really been normal for Evrain. His father had been a snatcher during the second wizarding war and had switched sides just in time to avoid imprisonment (in part because a lot of his crimes couldn't be proven), and that had only made the man more paranoid. He seemed to think that there would be another war one day, and that he would rejoin the Death Eaters again if they were to rise. So ever since Evrain was a child he was trained to defend himself and his sisters by both wizard and muggle means. Javier was never abusive to him, but something about the man scared Evrain, and that feeling persists even now.

Evrain was sorted into Slytherin house because he didn't want to disappoint his family by going against tradition. He had to argue with the Sorting Hat for a good long time, as it wanted to place him in Ravenclaw. School was hard for him. He was easily nervous because of his father's long-standing effect on him, and he hadn't been around many children when he was young, either. This made it especially hard for him to connect with people his own age. Instead most of the time he would go off on his own. It was better to be invisible than to be ridiculed, and for some reason he always thought that was going to be the way that they treated him. He got some hobbies that took his time, like writing, sewing, and drawing. These doubled as reasons not to talk to people since if he was huddled over his desk they would just assume that he was working on homework or something like that.

Not much has changed for Evrain in the past seven years. He's accepted that as the way it is, though he really does want to change and wants to be able to let someone in.

RP EXPERIENCE? Long time, brahs.
RP SAMPLE. Javier appeared outside of the complex dressed in a suit, a jacket that nearly reached his ankles, and supple leather gloves that allowed for good movement in his hands. There was a good chance that he would be needing full use of them before the night was over.

Interrogations were routine for his line of work. Most muggleborns and blood traitors didn't know anything. And Javier was intelligent enough to know that himself. So his questions didn't relate to how muggleborns got their power. It was entirely about whether or not they knew about the 'hideouts' that he had heard so much about. There was evidence that these places did exist but he didn't have any leads as to where they were. That was the primary reason he had allowed himself to be called upon on a night he had intended on spending at home relaxing for the first time in months with a glass of wine.

His group had not told him specifically who it was this time but they insisted that it was someone that he was going to want to meet. A pureblood who had abandoned their beliefs (he didn't know if said person was a man or a woman, owing to the fact that some of his companions had taken the unnecessary step of deeming blood traitors unworthy of such courtesy as gender distinction) and might know where more like them were hiding. It was the same claim that his brothers had made the past six or so times that Javier had been brought in. He was just about ready to turn the tables on them for their lack of tact and common sense.

So it was in a somewhat dark mood that Javier entered the room. “Do you know why you are here?” he asked in a calm and almost soothing tone, stepping forward. When he raised his eyes, his breath caught in his throat. He had looked upon her enough to identify her without effort, despite the fact that she was bruised and beaten, she was undeniably Drusilla.

Finally, he acted on his long-standing temptation and punched the other snatcher right in the nose. “Miserable simpleton! This is my pupil... What side do you think she is on?” He was fuming, but then he looked back at Dru. She would know the truth about him now, if she hadn't caught on already.

“Have you turned your back on your father's beliefs, Drusilla?” he asked, less certain of her loyalty than he would ever show to the other snatchers. He knew the sort of man that her father was. Perhaps she had thrown aside the Dark Lord's way when she decided that she didn't want to turn out like him. He was very conflicted between rushing to her and releasing her and being cautious... In the end, he decided to be cautious, as it would do no good to ruin all that he had built up to so far.
