LIKES 
- Playing Soccer. Anything athletic really, such as running, hiking, sports, or swimming. 
- Being with his family. Even though he is a muggleborn with his brother, his family is still incredibly close and enjoyable to be around.
- Twin time. Davis and his brother have to be around each other frequently or they seem to have withdrawals and become a bit cranky.
- Adventures. Nothing is more enjoyable for Davis than going on adventures and being goofy with his brother. 
- Parties. Davis isn't a HUGE party person but his brother is, so of course he gets dragged along and when he does, he always seems to have a good time. 
- Pennyboarding. It is one of his favorite hobbies, especially riding it down the school hallways when no one is around.
- Movies and TV. Davis loves watching movies with his family, Scrubs and Doctor Who are some of his favorites.
- Video games. What teenage boy doesn't have a love for playing Halo or COD?
DISLIKES 
- Being referred to with his brother as "The Twins". A pet peeve started by his family after "the twins" were born.
- Disappointing his parents. He absolutely despises it and always feels terrible if a situation like that arises. 
- Getting into trouble. Jacob is a bit more wild and more willing to take a hit than Davis. Davis just gets talked into Jacob's dirty work.
- Getting into fights. Though of course it's happened more than once as his brother Jacob seems to get himself in quite a few ruts. 
- School work. School is hard for Davis and studying is a must if he wants to pass any classes, which is a problem when it's hard to motivate him to study. 
- Authority. Though he has a lesser problem with it than his brother, it still doesn't stop him from being a wise-crack every once in a while.
- Being stuck indoors. It is a need for Davis to get outside and have fresh air. Being cooped up in the castle to long will easily put him in a sour mood.
BOGGART 
- Davis fears failing his family and friends. His family is important in the muggle world and he wants to be important himself. 
MIRROR OF ERISED 
- Davis desires to be looked up upon. Not in an arrogant way but in a way that makes himself and his family proud. 
PATRONUS 
- A Weasel, just like his twin's, because they are both mischevious, fun, and sneaky.
PERSONALITY 
Davis is just like his twin in many many ways... they are both cheeky and entertaining to be around, leading to never a dull moment. Both of them strive to find only the good in life and be positive no matter the circumstance. Davis however is a bit more humble and down to earth than his brother Jacob. It seems that Jacob is most often the center of attention and Davis is just along for the ride. Davis can pretty easily be pursuaded and Jacob can be quite the manipulator (not purposefully), which often leads the two to trouble, even though they are nearly attached at the hip. 

It seems as though if Davis were any more reserved, Jacob would steal the show entirely. Life is one big party for the two, never really taking anything serious. (Jacob more than Davis). Even though Davis loves being a twin more than anything and would never wish it different, sometimes he longs to be his own person. He is always referred to as "One of the twins" or "Jacob's brother", and that is a bit annoying to him. He is partially living in his brother's limelight and that is something he isn't too keen on, though he would never tell anyone. Because he is surrounded by his brother's upbeat, positive, (in the sky) nature, Davis is mostly the same way and puts any real emotion or negativity in the back of his mind, which could be a good thing, but in his case it's bad. He's never truly been in touch with himself or his feelings and the older he gets, the more he realizes it and longs to find his true identity.

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 
Davis Talon Reed was born in Chiswick, London, alongside his identical twin brother Jacob who is nine minutes older. The two of them were born into an upper-middle class family because of their father's job as the head coach of the professional football (soccer) team the Arsenals FC. Growing up with that to look up to put a lot of pressure on the boys to become something great. After their older sister Jersey landed a job straight out of school as an assistant book editor for a massive company in London, of course the pressure was on them more than ever. Though from a very young age it was evident that the twins were different. They were mischevious and trouble right from the get-go, though it wasn't the usual trouble. Something magical was evident in the two almost since birth, which was confusing to the family, considering neither parent had any magical relatives that they were aware of. 

As the boys grew up, they later had another sister, Staton. Though their family really was quite large because their father considered his team family and had them over constantly. Of course the only boys in the actual family were kicking soccer balls around by the time they could walk because their father longed for them both to make it professional, however, neither Davis or Jacob have the same goal in mind which makes for some rising tension in the household as the boys get older.
