Kermit "Ottie" Escher
Working Class Child | Incoming First Year [Hogwarts, September 1895]
Quiet-natured, curious, Kermit could not be more excited-- or more nervous-- about starting school in the Fall. He's a boy with big dreams. Particularly considering he is the second child of a working-class widow, and is unlikely to be able to afford a second year. Dreams of an academic scholarship may well be out of reach with a hand-me-down wand fighting him every step of the way.
Nevertheless, he is thrilled to be going at all! And eager to make some friends while he's there.
- Kermit grew up in the Hogsmeade slums, and being that he is a friendly child by nature, I would love for him to have some friends! People he knew growing up who might be his age or a year older.
- Gullible and trusting, Kermit would make a fantastic target for manipulation by other, less good-hearted children! Twist him into being your friend! Use him! It'll be fun [for me, not for him].
- I will be letting fate decide his House so I don't know yet where he's going, but when I do, obviously, this slot will be for his housemates!
