Character Information
Name: Elliot Tucker
LJ Username: (if available) </a></b></a>elliot_tucker
House: Hufflepuff
Age: 14
Birth date: September 15
Year: 3

Bloodline: Pureblood
Heritage: Australian
Personal History:
Elliot is the youngest of the Tucker trio. The boys are nearly inseparable thanks to the family values instilled in them by their parents, Kate and Robert. As the youngest, Elliot has always looked to his older brothers for guidance and sometimes even his own opinion. One can easily imagine that with this power over him, Elliot ended up causing quite a bit of trouble at their bidding.

Elliot was seven years old when the Tucker family mysteriously packed up and headed to England. The change in climate shocked Elliot. For a young boy used to the sunny, open Australian countryside, the cold, closeness of their new neighborhood was almost surreal. With a great deal of imagination and what can only be described as teamwork, the Tucker boys adjusted to their new setting.

A person should never become to used to their situation. It is at these moments when fate decides to hit you on the head. In Elliot’s case, quite literally. Elliot was unceremoniously thwacked on the head by a book thrown by Luke who thought Elliot was making noise. As it turned out, an owl was the real culprit, hovering at their window with a letter in hand… or talon. This day was coincidentally (or not so coincidentally as it turned out) Grant’s tenth birthday. The arrival of this winged messenger was made all the more alarming by the suddenly grave demeanors of Kate and Robert.

Later, Elliot could say he only absorbed half of what was said that night. Something about him being magical. This was lost, however, with the disturbing knowledge that Grant would be leaving them for the school year. Elliot was crushed and the following year, when Luke went away as well, he clung to his parents.

Order now restored with all three boys at the castle, the Tucker brothers are a force to be reckoned with. The three boys are in different houses but are almost constantly together.

Personality:
As the youngest of three brothers, Elliot has never quite learned to develop his own opinions. He is indecisive on even the most trivial matters except for his favorite color. (Yellow on Mondays, Blue Thursday through Sunday.) Grant and Luke are Elliot’s role models. With his indecisive nature, Elliot usually adopts whatever stance his brothers take. In a battle between the two, Elliot would waste no time in siding with Grant who has always managed to be slightly nicer and less moody than Luke.
Elliot is amazingly energetic and constantly wants to be the center of attention. Being in the lime light of his older (but not necessarily more mature) brothers has brought out both good and bad aspects of Elliot’s personality. Generally, Elliot is a gentle, well-mannered boy. On those occasions in which an individual crosses the line, he is wicked fierce. He can be extraordinarily stubborn and begins spouting whatever nonsense he has to prove the other party wrong. Elliot has been known to once or twice…. Fine, several times get a little physical. It may be the influence of his brothers or it could just be his naturally impetuous nature.
His brothers taught him the importance of standing up for your beliefs and, more importantly, you family. At the age of fourteen, Elliot is remarkably still extremely close to his parents. In his daily owl to them (an owl which is sent every evening at 7:00), Elliot imparts his feelings on the day, the weather and, of course, the latest about Grant and Luke. Elliot is very optimistic and loves to meet new people. He’s clueless. He thinks everyone is wonderful. Elliot likes to believe that he is quite the ladies’ man, but what does he know? He has no problem speaking to girls but often cannot figure out how they feel about him or the conversation matter. (Isn’t that the eternal struggle of the male subspecies?)
In the future, well, Elliot hasn’t thought too far. He knows he wants to help people and wants to raise a family in good ol’ Australia. As for a profession, Elliot intends to swim professionally. Australian Olympic team maybe?

Physical Description: Elliot is fairly tall, standing at just under six feet. He is thin but swimming has helped him build up muscles. He has sandy blonde hair that falls down to about his eyes. He has hazel eyes and a well-defined jaw line. On his left shoulder blade, Elliot sports a tattoo of a dragon quite obviously selected by Grant. (Not that Elliot needed convincing; he thought it was absolutely wicked.)
Preferred Body Model: Ed Speleers

Hobbies and talents:
Swimming: Almost immediately following his ability to walk, Elliot learned to swim. Australia had been a wonderful environment for the Tucker boys’ love of the sport. The colder waters of England aren’t ideal but Elliot still makes an effort to swim at every opportunity. It’s in his blood.
Music: Like his brothers, Elliot is very musically inclined. However, while his brothers pursued the piano, Elliot gave up and began learning guitar. Elliot loves music of all kinds and always seeks to learn what he hears on the guitar. Many times, Elliot can play the song by ear.

Weaknesses:
Indecisive: Elliot can never make up his mind whether it’s something school related or just his own opinion. Morally, Elliot can figure things out, but only based on what he learned from his brothers so he tends to find himself in sticky situations.
Clueless: Unless he saw it, chances are that Elliot probably has no idea it happened. This works to his advantage when he is caught in the middle of a brotherly argument but normally causes him a great deal of trouble when trying to keep up in class.
Lying: Unlike his elder brothers, Elliot is an awful liar. At least, or most especially, he cannot lie to his parents. The duty falls upon Luke and Grant to not only make up a good cover story but also make sure that Elliot does not give everything away.
Clumsy: However graceful Elliot may be in the water, it is not at all reflected in even activities so common as walking. Frequently stumbling on nothingness, Elliot faces quite a challenge when conquering the seemingly endless stairways within Hogwarts.
