Bloodline: Pureblood

Eye Color:  Grey

Birthplace: London England

Brief Childhood History:
Klaus Friedrich Leopold Klempt was born on February 28th in London to Friedrich and Ilsa Klempt. His parents were both born in Germany, but emigrated to England, becoming supporters of the Dark Lord. After the Dark Lord's fall, his father claimed to have been under the Imperius Curse, fleeing England for Germany before this claim could be properly investigated. His parents returned to England, shortly before Klaus's birth, so that their son could attend Hogwarts.

As a child, Klaus was spoiled endlessly, and taught to both pride himself in his Pureblood status, and look down upon those of "lesser" blood. His family is wealthy, and as such, he was raised in ample luxury. Klaus is physically unimpressive, being both slender, and shorter that most others his own age. Growing up, he avoided outdoor activities, leaving him pale, and slightly photophobic. Klaus's mother suffers from Albinism, and Klaus appears to have inherited at his mother's features, possessing pale skin, and nearly colourless hair. He shares his father's pointed, sallow features, and constant dark circles beneath his grey, piercing eyes. He is snobbish, and vain, having inherited these qualities from his parents. He is therefore prone to making "friendships" with other young wizards based on family connections, Pureblood status, and mutual dislike of non-Purebloods, rather than on any real elements of personal commonalities.


Strengths (Including Personality and Academic):
Personality:
Klaus Klempt is fairly intelligent, and has often been described as having something of a "silver tongue". However, his praise of others is always disingenuous, and given to advance, or benefit himself in some way. He is a practiced liar, and seems to suffer no remorse about doing it. Klaus is an emotional bully, being physically unable of intimidating anyone who isn't at least several years younger than himself. As such, he is often able to convince others of lesser intelligence to do his bidding.

Academic:
Klaus has shown some skill with the few spells he has attempted prior to arriving at Hogwarts. He loves potions, and is very nimble when around his cauldron. He loves Defense Against the Dark Arts, Potions, and History of Magic classes. He is also fast reader, and possesses excellent penmanship.


Weaknesses (Including Personality and Academic):
Personality:
Klaus is often found in a word, unpleasant by others his own age. He is seemingly unable to form real friendships. Despite his snobby arrogance, he is cowardly, never putting himself in any even mild danger. He avoids the outdoors, outdoor activities, and anything he perceives as being "beneath" him. He is privately ashamed of his somewhat effeminate mannerisms, and being raised in a primarily German speaking family, he has difficulty pronouncing certain English words. His arrogance causes him to easily believe anyone who might compliment him. Therefore, he is highly susceptible to manipulation by those who pander to him.

Academic:
Klaus is terrified of heights, and outdoor activities, causing the mere mention of Quidditch or broomsticks to make him shudder. He dislikes Charms, and finds Herbology beneath him, struggling greatly with it.  

What House You Feel Your Character Belongs In and Why:
Slytherin. He is cunning, and ambitious to a fault. He desires his magical ability to increase to grain personal power, which to him, means learning the most dangerous spells and mastering the most powerful potions. To Klaus Friedrich Leopold Klempt, the ends always justify the means.

Heya Klaus and welcome to HPRPG~!

However, before we can sort you, we're going to have to ask that you chose a natural hair color. Silver-white isn't quite natural. ^^ You could always go white-blond, which is a sort of platinum color. :3 And just keep this in mind- I get quite a few Draco Malfoy vibes off of Klaus' sheet; best to avoid that. <3

Once you've made the edit to his hair just change the title from 'pending' to 'edited'.

Edited.

Thank you for the hair colour comment. I had a feeling that might be an issue. As to the Draco vibes, there are certainly similarities, but I promise you, the differences will become both glaringly obvious, and out-shine the commonalities upon further character development.
