PHYSICAL APPEARANCE[/font]
height: 5'11
weight: 150 lbs
general:
Landon’s hair has a unique style which means that he can easily be found in a crowd full of people. It’s dirty blond and very short at the back to the point where it’s been shaving but has grown progressively through time. However, when viewed from the front, Landon has a fringe that is capable of covering both of his eyes and nose. Through time, Landon has learnt to deal with this untamable fringe so the style that he’s learnt and grown fond of is the side fringe. However, this side fringe looks more respectable compared to many that have tried it. This is because he moves it so much to the side and brushes it constantly so that it looks respectable for his fellow peers and teachers.
Landon has dark brown eyes. His eyelids aren’t small in any way but aren’t so big that that make his eyes look out of proportion to his face. In order words, his reasonable sized eyelids help compliment his eyes because it allows Landon to be perceived as someone much older than he is.
Landon is a quite muscular young man. This is because of his mother, Leonora, who encourages him to focus on his health and focus solely on his endurance. Although, he is muscular, however, he is also very skinny. Too skinny in fact that when he wears t-shirts and the like, it’s impossible to see that he has any muscle unless he chooses to wear wife beater shirts or a far more informal wear like jogging bottoms and a jumper.
Landon is considering getting a few tattoos when he graduates but only then because it’ll be a way to demonstrate to his parents that they can’t control him or what he does with his life. He has a lot of scars due to the fact that he spends most of his time playing Quidditch with his mum or his older brother, Linus, whenever he comes to visit them. Landon would never get piercings because he believes it shows that you’re a ‘weak’ man because you’re showing a more feminine side of yourself.
dressing style: Landon’s style varies greatly depending on the situation he’s in. This is because his family normally holds House parties for their family and friends in order to keep their ties strong. However, most of the time he can be seen wearing a muggle t-shirt with the most random saying, pair of jeans and dark blue high tops. Although, he comes from a family a wealth, he never enjoys showing it because he was taught that there were people out there that would always be out for their money/fame. Landon’s father travels around the world too so whenever he visits a different country, he makes sure to send Landon certain tourist clothing to remind him that he’ll always be there for him although he’s always working and in order to show his appreciation, Landon wears the shirts and to show everyone what a great loving father he has. Landon only wears exclusive and expensive clothing for specific events but never for an everyday outfit. He’s far too lazy and not to mention that he believes that people should judge a person for what their like with others not by appearances.

ROLEPLAY SAMPLE:Ever since Landon had left the strict school of Hogwarts, he had never felt so free. He was able to drink as much as he wanted and if anything do whatever he wanted. He had to admit being free from his mum’s grip also made him smile greatly. He couldn’t believe that even now that he was long gone from school, he’d constantly run into familiar faces. Perhaps it was because he only just got accepted into the Ministry of Magic. He didn’t mind at all that it had been a dead end job because he knew all great wizards started off that way but because he was able to do something that he knew all too well about made him happy. A sigh passed Landon’s lips as he strolled down the streets of Hogsmeade. It had been snowing so he wore his old Gryffindor scarf proudly around his neck along with his black coat, black trousers and an expensive pair of shoes. His blonde hair had been elegantly gelled back because he’d only just finished work in the Ministry. A day out in London always stressed Landon out since he had never been much of the city type.
He would wave occasionally to some passerbyers that he knew because of his frequent trips here. A big smile was placed on his face as he entered the Hog’s Head. He removed his coat and scarf and tossed it by the nearest table. The place hadn’t been as packed as Landon would’ve wanted it to be but it had been the middle of the week so it was expected that several witches and wizards would be off working or taking care of their families. Landon was never the kind of guy to crave attention but tonight he wanted to speak with someone of his age if not of his intelligence. After all, since he began work in the Ministry, there hadn’t been many friends he could make since all of them had at least been half their age and with grandchildren. Landon wasn’t fond of that and most of the time he was worried that he may not even be able to make friends within the Ministry. A sigh passed Landon’s lips as he took a seat at his table and lifted his arm up to the woman at the bar. She frowned at him and gave him a quick, cold shouldered nod. It seemed like she had been working here all day and wasn’t in the best of moods but Landon didn’t let that get to him. However, he didn’t see WHY she had been so moody since there hadn’t been as many people as there usually were.
A few minutes had passed and the woman was yet to arrive at Landon’s table. A frown was placed upon his face as he folded his arms across his chest. He was growing impatient… after all, he came here to have a firewhiskey and read the Daily Prophet in peace but none of these remedial tasks were being accomplished without having one of the essential ingredients to his daily routine. Just as he was about to stand up to have a go at the woman, he felt a small tug at the end of his black suit jacket. At first, he turned around completely confused by who had done that. After all, at eye level he couldn’t see anyone but when he felt the tug happen once more, he looked down. His confused expression changed immediately to one of complete welcome and delight. It had been a little girl with a puffskein. A big smile came across Landon’s face as he placed one hand on the girl’s head. “Aren’t you adorable?” Landon said cheerfully while rubbing her head, deliberately messing it up. It didn’t take long for Landon to realize that the girl was clearly upset about something so he allowed the little girl to tell him her story before adding any more stupid remarks.
“May I ask what your mummy’s name is?” Landon asked while taking a seat once more in his chair. He shifted his body towards the girl, spreading both of his legs apart and placing his arms on both of his knees, cupping his hands together and looking at the girl with deep concern. Landon wasn’t particularly sure how this girl got here but he wanted her to be back with her mum as soon as possible. However, Landon couldn’t help this feeling of frustration he had towards the mother since she’d been careless enough in the first place to let her daughter wander around alone in Hogsmeade.
