Nicholas D. Black
Basics
Full Name: Nicholas Delano Black (No relation to Sirus's family)
Age: 14
Year: 4
House: Ravenclaw
Affilliation: Undecided
Wand: Ebony and dragon heartstring, 12", supple
Personality/Appearance
Cody Linely as play by.
Appearance: Nicholas has sandy blond hair and piercing blue eyes. His face has a pointed look to it, though not the unpleasant kind of pointed. More like the elf kind of pointed look, small and simple. He is usually seen in casual wear, with his uniform still on but with the unformal approach. He has a friendly face to him, with a little scar just under his chin, just above his adams apple from a spell gone wrong. His body is like a swimmers, lean but with hidden muscles, and he stands at 5 ft and 5 inches.
Likes: Cats, new spells, owls, new friends and Charms.
Dislikes: Bullies, cheaters, spiders, fire and bubblegum.
Strengths: Loyalty, courage and friendship.
Weakness: Guillable, fire and too trusting.
Personality: Nicholas is a shy boy, always preferring books to reality. But he does hang with his friends if they ask him too, or if he doesnt feel like reading. He is not a know-it-all either, preffering to stay quiet and let someone else answer. He is quick to jump to his friends defense, however, if the need arises. He loves to learn new spells and knowledge. He is afraid of fire, the result of his past experience (see history).
But all in all, Nicholas is always accessing a situation with precise and perfect accuracy. He liked to like the better of everything. He is always friendly, but when he gets mad, he is able to hold a grudge for weeks, and even years if it was a good enough one.

History
History: Nicholas grew up in the normal world of a wizarding family in the muggle world. In other words, he grew in disguising what he was. Born from a wizard and a witch, Nicholas has the "fullblood" of a "true" wizard. Or so says his father. His mother, on the other hand, installed in him the gentleness, thoughtfulness and kindness he still has today.
He grew in in the expecting shadow of his older brother, who was proud of everything he did and liked to brag. His parents expected him to be just like their oldest son, but Nicholas would have none of it. Instead, he got into the habit of reading, and he got so aborsed with his fantasy realm to even notice his parents turning their attention back to his older brother James. Nicholas took it all in stride when James was put into Slytherin House, and he tried not to mind all the expectations his father was putting on him.
But when the time came, his father was to be disappointed. Nicholas was sorted into Ravenclaw, dispersing his fathers hopes of having two sons following in his footsteps. His mother, on the other hand, was proud to have her son follow in hers. But the year when his younger brother Ryan was sorted into Ravenclaw, during Nicholas's third year, disaster struck. A random fire, caused by lightning, had struck the Blacks small farmlike house on the outskirts of town. His father, James and Ryan had gotten out safe, but Nicholas and his mother were trapped. That night, Miranda Blacks life was claimed by the fire, but Nicholas's was spared. His older brother, in a moment of love, had run into the house and grabbed the closet person he could reach: Nicholas.
Since then, Nicholas has been afraid of fire, and James moved out and the middle Black son spends his breaks in Hogwarts, just so he couldnt see his fathers grief filled face, full of blame and acusation.
Sample RP
Nicholas put down his quill and reached over his desk, quickly shutting the window that had blown open. A sudden gust of wind made it bulge inward before leaving. Sighing, the Fourth Year stuffed his quill and parchment into his lap bag. He couldnt study here, not with the wind blowing in as it was. It was too distracting.
His head bowed down in thought, the boy walked out of the room and headed down the corridor, his pathway lit by torchs centered along the passagway. His blue-lined robes fluttered behind him as he sauntered past a classroom, the students piling out. With ease, he quickly side stepped a First Year running through the doorway. The boy stopped quickly, looking up at the Ravenclaw Student. With nothing other than an encouraging smile, Nicholas left the embarrassed boy behind and continued on.
Maybe the library would be quieter, it was always empty right after classes were let out anyways. He ran a hand through his thick sandy blond hair with a grin. Besides, he thought, who else but a ravenclaw would be studying right after classes and before dinnner? And a crazy Ravenclaw, at that. He hummed a little tune as he walked to the library, purpose giving him a new spring in his step.

Though you would need two more sentences in appearance, I think you've covered just about everything in his appearance. You found this site on Creatures of the Night, didn't you? [*waves*] And remember, you will have to pick a side in the future.
