PATRONUS Stallion. Ciel is strong and stubborn, but also quite kind and lovable at times. He is also physically pretty strong and fast, 
PERSONALITY Ciel is quite laid-back and calm, but is pretty fun when he gets in the mood. His ways of approaching things are usually very calm and rational. He thinks out his plans before he acts. This can be a great advantage, but sometimes he's too slow to work things out at a moment's notice. Ciel is what you would call, very sassy. He can be snippy and think of a comeback to someone in seconds, making him the sassy gay boy who is still lovable. His rationality made him a contender for Ravenclaw, but his ways of dreaming and sometimes going to great lengths to get his dreams. Now, he wouldn't go so far as to hurt others to make his ideas come true, but he would go to hurt himself to get to his dreams. He might stay up all night to get all his studying in, causing him to mess up his sleep cycle. If someone dropped something he wanted into a fire, he would reach in and burn himself just to get it.

Ciel has one thing that he is deathly afraid of. It isn't heights. It isn't tight spaces. It isn't even death itself. It's bees. When he was a small child, Ciel was playing with Francis in the gardens when he stepped on a burrowed bee hive. The bees swarmed and attacked Ciel, sending him to the hospital from the stings and leaving him with a fear that would always scar him for life. Even one bee will make him scream and run for cover. This can be humiliating, but his fear is greater than his pride, and if he gets stung, ohhhh just cover your ears in case your ear drums get shattered from the scream.

Ciel is known for owning cigarettes, but never smoking them. He will keep a box of cigarettes always in his pocket, but he only holds the unlit cigarette in his mouth. It helps him make his art. Speaking of art, that is one of Ciel's specialties. He loves drawing and painting, and his hands are often covered in charcoal and pencil markings. He'll often doodle in class.

But all in all, Ciel is a funny, gay, sassy boy who doesn't take any sh*t from anyone. He'll protect others even if he doesn't know them all because he doesn't think that anyone should need to deal with that crap.

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 Being born to two very wealthy parents, Ciel was immediately handed to a nanny from the moment he was born. His parents would sometimes pop in and see him for a few minutes, then go to work or to another part of the mansion (yes, mansion). Ciel's older brother, Francis Phoenix, was only three years older than him, so they became close quite quickly. Looking nothing alike, most thought that they were simply best friends, not actually brothers. Francis with his bright blond hair and tannable skin made him look much different from Ciel's dark mahogany hair and pale, easily burned skin. But they were still close. When Ciel came out, he told Francis and Holly first, then told his parents (not that they cared anyways). Since Jonas Phoenix wasn't around much, Francis and Ciel took it upon themselves to be like fathers to her. Francis, the smartest sibling, tutored her and helped her study. Ciel, the more social of the two, helped Holly with friends and the like, aiding in her young social life. She has grown to follow her older brothers to Hogwarts, and is currently in her second year.

Ciel is very athletic, and enjoys sports. even muggle sports like football and cricket. He likes quiddich, but it's not something he's too interested in. However, Ciel loves flying on brooms. As well as riding on horses. The Phoenix estate has many horses (some for racing and others for riding) and Ciel grew up with his own horse: Apollo, who's a white-bodied stallion with a golden tail and mane. This is another reason why Ciel's patronus is a stallion. Holly has Sunny, a brown mare with white splotches, and Francis has Oswald, a black stallion who was originally a plow horse, but he wanted as a riding horse. They are all very close to their pets and vice versa.
