EYE COLOUR: Blue grey
HEIGHT: 5'11
WEIGHT: 173
BODY TYPE: Lysander is tall and lean without being too stringy. He isn't exactly built but he's not completely muscle less either.
PERSONAL STYLE: Lysander's style is what he likes to call carefree. Which really just means that he doesn't really care too much about fashion and will wear it if it's clean. He tends to dress fairly simply preferring the muggle clothes that are just plain more comfortable than robes. His old stand-bys are jeans and a t-shirt. He does like bright colors and will often wear shirts with bright colors or designs. The one item you will rarely catch him without is a pair of sneakers. Lysander loves sneakers and owns a whole load of worn out and much loved sneakers. As for formal his style is non-existent as he hates to dress up. You would have to practically wrestle him to get him into anything formal. He often states he'd rather walk around naked than wear some stuffy dress robe or whatever.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION: Lysander isn't drop dead gorgeous, but he tends to at least get a 'not bad' rating in the looks department. His skin is generally blemish free and a tanned color as he tends to spend as much time as he can outside. His body is fairly average, but leans towards the almost in shape side. It's pretty obvious that if he actually tried he could be in pretty good shape. His best feature he thinks are his blue grey eyes and his rather luxurious hair. And yes he does describe his hair as luxurious as it's very soft and the word amuses him.
Lysander also looks like a trouble maker. There is just something about his eyes and his usual smirk that makes people think uh-oh. He also has a way of holding his body that makes it look like he's just waiting to spring into some sort of action. He is surprisingly mark free, but has a one scar on his left calf. He thinks the scar makes him look rugged and shows it off often. He enjoys saying he got it from a nundu, but really got it from a stray dog he was messing with when he was younger.

AND ALL YOU KNOW ,
[/font]AND ALL YOU KNOW ,
and how you speak
------------------------------------------------------------[/center]
Jokes- A day without laughter is a day not worth living is Lysander's philosophy. He loves to play and joke around. He isn't a huge practical joker, but will from time to time. He also likes tends to be just a little sarcastic in the mostly funny way that makes people laugh.
Lorcan- He and his brother may look a like, but they are two very different people. And yes sometimes they do clash, but he still adores his brother no matter how often they might bash heads. He is as he is fond of saying the jelly to Lorcan's peanut-butter
Games- Not a boy to sit still Lysander absolutely adores games. He's not particularly picky of the game. If it's a game he'll play it even if it's meant for a five year old. And the good money is on that he will enjoy it. His favorite is of course Quidditch which he's absolutely nuts about.
Misc. Likes- Strawberries, Eating a lot, Mystery Novels, The Chudley Cannons, Talking, Playing in the rain
CHARACTER DISLIKES: Studying- Lysander isn't a bad student, but he is not a fan of studying. He will buckle down and make sure he doesn't fail or anything, but he will never be excited about studying. He won't really procrastinate, but he will gripe endlessly about the piles of homework that the professor give them.
Being Cooped up- Being an active boy being stuck in one place tends to irritate him. He doesn't mind being inside really though he does like to hang around outside more thanks to his mother. However being caged up in one room would drive him crazy. He likes to be able to move around when the mood strikes him.
Gossip- Lysander is a social boy who enjoys talking with people. He however hates gossip there's no better way to annoy him than to try to give him some second account information you've heard from your brother's cousin's girlfriend's maid. He's way to honest and upfront to be able to deal with it. People learn quickly not to gossip around him because he'll ask the person mentioned and then have no problem telling said person where he heard the gossip from.
Fighting- Lysander is a pacifist and he doesn't really believe in fighting. This doesn't mean he'll let anyone push him around, but he hates fighting. He will always try to defuse a situation so it won't come to a physical confrontation and he will definitely grumble at any of his friends who fight for hours on end.
Misc. Dislikes- bossy people, broccoli, people who call his mother loony, shirts with collars, cheaters, the color brown.
GOALS: Lysander wants what his parents have. A happy family a kid or two to play games with. And maybe a side helping of being a hero. Oh and don't forget the bikini model wife yep he definitely wants one of those.
BOGGART: Lysander's greatest fear is losing his family. He can't single out which loss would hurt him the most, but he can't imagine what it would be like without all of them.
PATRONUS: His best memory his happiest memory was a simple day. Nothing special really for them out in the field with his naturalist parents observing the habits of some creature. For the most part the day was boring, but the best part of it was at the end of the day while they were all relaxing around a campfire eating smores and his mother started telling them all sorts of stories. Lysander has a whole slew of happy memories, but this one sticks out a little more than the others, because even as young as he was then he remembers feeling very content and safe. His patronus takes on the form of a golden monkey.
DEMENTOR: Lysander's worst memory is of the first real fight he and his brother had. They actually got into a fist fight and didn't speak to each other for a week. It's the worst week of his life. He's hated not being friends with his brother.
AMORENTIA: chocolate, a rain soaked forest, and lavender
BASIC PERSONALITY: Childish, Curious, Energetic, Hopeful, Reckless, Emotional, Honest, Open, Caring

MOTHER: Luna Scamander Nee Lovegood
BROTHER(S): Lorcan Scamander (twin brother)
SISTER(S): N/A
OTHER: Xenophilius Lovegood- Grandfather
BLOOD STATUS: Pureblood
HOMETOWN: Ottery St. Catchpole
CURRENT RESIDENCE: Ottery St. Catchpole in a modest, but homey little cottage not very far away from Lysander's grandfather.
BIOGRAPHY: On August seventeenth 2006 Lysander would come screaming into the world an entire ten minutes after his twin brother Lorcan. And from that moment on Lysander seemed intent on proving he'd never be left behind again. The boy would quickly grow to be an amiable little handful of energy. Always in a good mood, but almost impossible to keep track of once he learned how to crawl around. His parents always had to keep a close eye on him because he was infamous for getting into everything thanks to his seemingly endless curiosity. This is the boy who would try climbing into the fireplace time after time because the fire fascinated him.
He would just as quickly grow into an equally inquisitive and hard to keep tabs on toddler. He would also grow even more agreeable the moment he learned to talk there was no stopping he'd talk to just about anyone or anything that would respond to him. He was always moving around and active the only time you could count on him being still and calm would be the time he spent with his only slightly older brother who even as a toddler seemed to act older than he really was. It would quickly become evident that Lorcan would be the voice of sanity between the pair. As they grew older it would become obvious that Lorcan would be the only one that could talk Lysander out of some of his crazier ideas.
And boy did he have some crazy ideas. A great example of this would be when he was just a few months shy of six years old and he got curious about how birds flew without brooms while he needed a broom to do the same. So Lysander set out to solve the riddle by building his own wings and trying to jump from the roof of their cottage. The only reason the boy didn't jump and wind up probably breaking his neck was because Lorcan spotted him and shouted him off the roof. Lorcan was often the only voice Lysander would listen to when it came to his schemes and ideas. The pair of them would start being home schooled by their parents shortly after this event in an effort to keep the two boys educated and occupied so there would be no repeats of this incident. The pair of boys would take to home schooling well though Lysander would never show as much interest as his brother as he would always want to play a game or something rather than study his life away.
Time would fly by and in no time Lysander seemed to be turning eleven and he received his letter to Hogwarts. This of course wasn't really all that surprising to anyone as it was pretty much assumed he'd be attending Hogwarts. It was also no big surprise how excited Lysander was about attending the famous magical school. The place was practically drowning in curious things and Lysander couldn't wait to get his paws on all the mysteries Hogwarts obviously held. He and his brother would hit Hogwarts rolling. The pair would be surprisingly both be sorted into Ravenclaw though he was sure that he'd be placed with the lions and his grumpy brother a snake. Of course Lysander wouldn't let the surprise phase him for long as he had a whole castle full of puzzles to solve and friends to make.
Lysander would almost immediately fit right in socially he would quickly make quite a few friends and have a grand old time. Unsurprisingly the classes would be a little harder for him as they were sort of boring sometimes and you had to sit in one room listening to someone lecture which was never fun. But he'd get through it mostly because Lorcan would get on his case if he didn't. Lysander for his part would drag Lorcan along practically forcing at least a few friendships on his brother and a few other people. Lysander has been at Hogwarts for six years and he's mostly managed to stay out of trouble with only a few exceptions. Mostly for going places he's really not supposed to like the forbidden forest which is he seriously curious about and a few pranks. He and his brother are of course as close ever and managing Hogwarts together well as could be expected.

POP QUIZ! Dormiens Nonquam Titillandus
RP SAMPLE:
Hmmmm I need something to do. Charms homework should definitely wait. Studying really wasn't much of an option for Lysander because he really was quite bored and boredom was on thing that never settled on Lysander very well. He could study, but he had never been very good at sitting down and studying for hours on end like some people he knew. He wasn't sure if he envied Lorcan's ability to just study for hours and hours or not. All he knew was the only way he could sit still for that long was if Lorcan tied him to the chair. Which would honestly not be the first time, but Lysander wasn't so behind that his brother would get annoyed so it was okay. Well mostly of course Lorcan would probably get grumpy if he found Lysander slacking during his study periods, but since Lor was in class that didn't really matter.
Ooooh I know I should play a game! But which one and who with? Finding someone to play with wouldn't be that hard. He had plenty of friends just as desperate to be distracted from studying that he was sure he could find someone. Of course deciding on what game to play would be harder. Lysander loved games and had so many it was always difficult to decide which one to play with. He had a whole shoe box filled with different card games including a brand new deck of wizard snap cards. He of course had a wizarding chess board. He also had some really cool muggle games his mother had bought him. Ooooh I'll play Clue! The muggle mystery game was without a doubt one of his very favorites. He adored figuring out whodunit every single time. Of course it would make finding someone to play with him harder as a lot of people didn't like playing Clue with him because he always won thanks to lots and lots of practice.
"Clue it is!" Lysander spoke out loud to himself mostly because he liked the sound of his voice. It only took him a second to dive off his bed to his chest where he stored most of his belongings. And two seconds later he was tossing clothes and all sorts of odds and ends out of his trunk and onto the floor as he searched out the right game board. "Yes!" Lysander let out a triumphant cry as he located the right box and retrieved it from his trunk ignoring the mess he had just made. Lorcan was sure to yell at him later for being a slob, but Lysander had more important things to do like a mystery to solve. So he ran out of the dorm without worrying about the mess intent on finding someone just about anyone to play a great game of Clue with him.
