Elijah has a very dark looming presence about him. He is visibly a little bit shorter than Rodolphus Lestrange who is tallest in their year. (YES that fact annoys him completely) He is lean with obvious muscle tone, it is something he has worked hard to accomplish. His dark brown hair is kept clean and styled looking. This is something that he can thank his sister for, where she might be a tomboy she is the only one he will trust with cutting his hair.

Elijah prefers dark and natural color for clothing, even out side the uniform, he doesn’t do pastels or anything bright and colorful. Though Emmy does seem to favor torturing him with hideous wild print shirt as gifts for holidays. They are normally are only worn once, then spend the rest of year in the dark recesses of his closets. He hopes they will never again see the light of day. Embarrassing fact about him is that if you get the privilege of spending the holidays with Jammison's you see him sporting some hideous shirt or jumper, but normally he is seen wearing dark tastefully stylish clothes that are tailored to fit just right.

Because of his dark facial features and characteristics he tends to look surly and brooding. His chiseled facial features are proportionate with only his eyes being a bit to widely set for his mother’s liking, but he is no doubt a very handsome man, which he prefers to be.

Elijah’s body is his temple, which he has not defiled it with holes in his ear or any other places, nor would he ever consider it appropriate to tattoo himself with some mindless mark; however there is one mark he would make the exception for mainly cause he has too, but that will be the only tainted piece of skin he would allow himself to have.

* Emmy’s sense of humor, It sadly has more pull with him than he cares to admit.
* Girls who remind him of Emmy.
* His Families honor and nobility
* Catching people off guard
* Conquests, It is truly the thrill of the hunt with him.
* Ability of keeping romantic indiscretions a secret.

dislikes, ten +
* The fact that after all his hard work, he doesn’t have his father’s respect
* Being forced to do another’s bidding
* Being perhaps the only one that knows about his father’s romantic indiscretions
* Being second in anything (it sadly happens a lot)
* Pureblood nobility who act like attention seeking whores
* He isn’t a big fan of Muggle Studies as a class. He figures he doesn’t need to study Muggle’s when their offspring populate the school’s hall.
* Loosing important debates to Emmy
* The thought of ending up in a marriage like his parents
* Emmy’s choice in gifts
* Emmy’s taste in men ( He is hoping that the thing with the blood traitor is just a phase)
* Members of his house who are not able to hide their prejudices from public eye.. He believes that there is nothing wrong in despising a group of people who you feel are beneath you, just there are ways of doing it where you don’t look like a baying idiot.

strengths,
* Ability to be logical and think rational under intense situations
* He can put personal grudges aside to work in a group with others.
* Charismatic and deliberate with whom he is charming too.
* Strong Strategy skills and he is a good problem solver


weaknesses, balance with strength
* Tends to over analyze people, and over think things.
* Has a very big ego that is easily wounded
* Exceedingly Chauvinistic
* The belief that everything in life is open to negotiation
* He knows his love for his sister is a liability



worst fear,
* Currently he fears for his sister. The choices she is making will have life-long consequences. I think he honestly fears what it will do to him emotionally if and when she is dis-owned. So I guess it would be the emotional pain of heart ache that comes with loss of a loved one, and the guilt he would feel at not being able to stop it.
boggart, worst memory
The Christmas eve where his father beheaded the family’s house elf. He was only six and it was a lasting impression of what it meant to be a Father.
amortenia, favorite smells
Warm Lemon Cauldron cakes
Clove
Ginger and Saddle wood
sexuality, straight, bisexual, gay, pansexual...?
Straight
overall personality, two minimum GOOD and DETAILED paragraphs please

Elijah has all the makings of what will be a great Politician. He is very calculating, well-spoken and shrewd enough to hide the true nature of his agenda. He tends to be one for debating problems to gain outside support, rather than just start threatening and blasting people. This is evident to anyone who has the misfortune of sharing the Muggle Studies class with him. He and the Professor go rounds and rounds debating the need of such a class. Elijah loves to argue. (not to be confused with a threat contests)

Elijah in his personal residence, mirror’s his father in disposition. He is condescending and arrogant, and much of the time chauvinistic. Lucky he is able to pass that off as chivalry to everyone but his siblings, who know he is just being lazy and bossy. As he has control freak-like tendencies, he sees himself as second in command and views his sibling’s behavior as his personal responsibility. He takes it upon himself to discipline them. This perhaps has been cause for the tension in his and Emmelia’s relationship they have been known to bicker and fight but he has never nor does he see himself able to raise his hand to her in the manner his father has.

The Students of his house and his year know he harbors the same flaws that they all seem hold. Elijah is egocentric and arrogant and occasionally lazy. They also know he doesn’t tolerate booze well. It makes him aggressive, and lacking his better judgment he acts foolishily. This happens with those whom he shouldn’t act foolishly with.

He is dependable and has no problem covering for friends, even if it means serving detention for something he didn't do. Elijah is well liked even though he is known to be a bit of jerk.

I think that because he doesn’t openly berated and bully Muggle born’s, or even the fact that he refer’s to them as Muggle borns and not mudbloods, probably has those eager to take up their roles as death eaters pondering if he can be trusted.

siblings, names, ages, houses
Emmelia Jennelle Jammison, Seventeen, Slytherin
Mason Alexander Jammison, Fifteen, Slytherin
Kira Alieah Jammison, Fourteen, Slytherin

overall history, three or four good paragraphs, please be detailed

Somewhere in the month of July in Nineteen fifty Nine Jennelle and Jarrad Jammison had the discussion of wither they should or should not wait to have children. Now if this conversation took place in the back part of some school carriage, or on their honeymoon, remains to be a question.

The result is still the same, Nine months later they welcomed into the world their first child a Son who was pride of his father’s life as he noted the boy was quiet and just like him in the way that the baby was studious looking (sadly, His father didn’t’ know it was Just gas and it would eventually pass) Minutes later the couple welcomed into the world their second child who literally came out beet red and screaming in anger.

Yes from the beginning Eli and Emmy were considered polar opposites. The ying and yang as their mother often labeled them. The twins seemed to fancy one another’s company, Emmy would often cry and throw temper fits when it was night-time and she was separated from her brother by the length of a crib. For hours she would cry and pout and occasionally throw items from her crib at the door..

Things like toys and mobiles and occasionally her diaper, Eli rarely threw fits, instead he use the wall and the Curtains that hung in their nursery windows to pull and his crib closer to Emmy’s. Often their Mother would walk in the next morning to find the Nursery in shambles toys and bedding everywhere curtains on the floor, and the Cribs side by side. Of course the cause of destruction was obvious, as brother and sister laying asleep happily touching in some way shape and form.

Life continued on in this fashioned through the twin’s infant years. They were literally inseparable they played together, learned together. They were one another’s best friends in fact it was Emmy who taught Eli to stop confusing the house plants for the potty. Together they terrorized the house elf with games like Hide the Elf in mum’s Spell book cabinet and see what happens.

It is such games that lead to Eli’s worst Memory. He and Mason were taking turns sliding down the stairs an enchanted floating cauldron that his Mother used for special holiday events. Well Mason fell out of the cauldron and was knocked out cold by the fall.. There wasn’t any harm Mason was fine but their mother was angry, Not believing that He would have suggested such a stupid game she asked for who’s idea it had been.. It was obvious that she was assuming it was Emmy’s and was looking for a reason to punish her more.

Elijah did what he felt was natural he quickly blamed the House Elf. Later that evening (Christmas Eve) His father demanded to know where the elf had gotten off to.. His wife explained that she had to lock the Elf in the shed in the backyard cause it had harmed one of her children and she didn’t trust it to not hurt the others..

His father reaction was as swift as his judgment and execution of the so-called disgusting pest. Being the oldest Son and the witness to the crime, his father ordered him to accompany him on the chore. Elijah had never had blood on his hands before and the guilt of it was debilitating. Even though the family acquired another house elf it didn’t stop the effects of his guilty conscience. From that moment on he became exceedingly honest to the point that he was confused for being tactless and mean.

It also had another unfortunate consequence It made him even more protect of those he felt where prone to being handled cruelly by his father.. He now worried about what would happen to his sister if she upset his father too much.. He knew there was no reasoning with his father, so naturally he looked to his sister as the one that he could get to be reasonable. Sadly to Emmy this might have looked as though her brother had sold her out, as he basically asked her to assimilate to the family’s standards. (which he was)

So that is how things went the twins continued to grow and travel down their individual paths alone eventually they went to Hogwarts and where both sorted into his father’s house, which was Slytherin. Elijah had never experienced fear like he did when he watched the hat fall upon his Sister’s head and the moments it took for it place her in Slytherin where he figured she would be safe.

Sadly that wasn’t case, even though she was sorted in his house. That didn’t mean she attempted to act the way a Slytherin should act. His hope for her future was something he had to slowly watch die, as she surrounded herself with people he knew their parents wouldn’t approve of.. IT was a good thing that both Mason and Kira were both what he needed in siblings as he didn’t need another family member going astray to worry over. Sadly he knew that Emmelia was irreplaceable and that in spite of everything she did, and put him threw he loved her, even if that meant loving her in spite of everything he believes in..

He heard the bellowing coming from down stairs. He pondered if They had found out about Emmy’s little enterprising adventure to fund her Quidditch gear. He honestly didn’t know if his father was more upset by the fact that she had been somewhat inventive, or the fact that she had once again openly defied him, by not resigning from the Quidditch team.

The whole issue of Emmelia playing on the team had been a sore subject, as their father felt Quidditch was something that should only be played by boys. Eli understood that opinion as he shared it considering he thought that having girls on his House team only served to make the male look weak, Like they didn’t have enough strong guys to tryout.. He could see something like that from Hufflepuff where boys and girls and their skill and strength, seemed to be much of the same, but they weren’t Hufflepuff they had standards and certain people were thumbing their nose at their standards because of people like well like Emmelia.

Not to mention it was difficult to actually pay attention to the game while worrying if some prat was going to take a cheap shot at his sister being so openly vulnerable out there. He had no idea in what Lucius was thinking in allowing the girls to tryout he could only imagine that the Hufflepuff parents had made some sort of stink about their daughters getting clobbered and they needed to even things out there..

Frankly it was piss poor excuse to allow it. Girls belonged in the stands, and not out on a pitch. Though he did admit there was something alluring about girls in their uniforms, though he would never admit it openly.

The voices down below raised in temper and in pitch, He knew it was only a matter of time before the violence would happen. It always happened when they were home. Quidditch or not he was sure that even if his sister started acting in a way that his father would consider honoring. Violence would ensue he was just thankful that tonight’s altercation was solely on the subject of appropriate female behavior, and not what she was doing with Sirius Black.. He could go down stairs and attempt to intervene, but he know that if he did than it would only make his father more angry. Did he want to risk that? In truth it wasn’t a matter of what he wanted, it was a matter of keeping Emmelia from receiving another black eye or worse.

As the voices down below continued to rise, and the words became more and more threatening Elijah stood up and headed out his door to put a stop to violence that was quickly ruining his sister, and slowly killing him inside.
