SOCIAL CLASS: Low Class
SCHOOL YEAR:6th
PLAY-BY: Daniel Sharman
BlOOD STATUS: Muggleborn
EYES: Blue
HAIR: Brown
SKINTONE: White
HEIGHT & WEIGHT: 5'11
DISTINGUISHING MARKS: A small cut on his leg from where he ran into the fence when he was nine. He claims it to be his battle scar.
OVERALL PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Standing at 5'11, Elliot Moreau is built like a farm boy. He's got enough muscle to get the job done, but not too much where he looks intimidating. He's got wavy dark brown hair that it fairly neat despite how rough and rugged when he's working. His eyes are a dark, yet bright blue that stands out thanks to the darkness of his hair. When Elliot is at home, he's known to where overalls and work boots and gloves, but when at school, he dresses fairly casual, usually consisting of his school uniform and robes, and during Hogsmeade weekends he's dressed in lightly tattered dress pants and a a plan white collared shirt.
NON-MAGICAL SKILLS: Born and raised on a farm, Elliot knows how to handle farm animals, from cleaning them, to helping them give birth, to feeding them, to herding them around the farm. He also knows how to maintain and keep up the land. That includes helping fertilize the crops, fixing and/or repairing broken equipment, building new fences, and picking ready produce. When he's not putting his farm skills to use, he likes to fish and play ball or explore the woods. He's also been trying to learn how to ride horses, but hasn't quite gotten the hand of it.
MAGICAL SKILLS: Just because he's muggleborn doesn't mean Elliot feels the need to prove himself to anyone. His magic skills are pretty average for his age. He does however like to fly. Quidditch is an all time favorite sport of his. During his first year he found flying to be exhilarating, so that summer he begged and pleaded for a broom, even taking up extra chores, but he didn't receive it because the family had very little money. Needless to say, Elliot was very disappointed. He spent that summer practicing on his older cousin Graeme McKinnon's broom in hopes that he'd get his chance to shine. Second year went by with him attending the quidditch matches feeling a bit envious. Then third year rolled around and he received a broomstick from his siblings as a birthday gift. That was a very exciting year for Elliot. It was more exciting that being able to go to Hogsmeade. He also has exceptional grades in Healing, for it is important to him.
BEST/WORST CLASSES: Because school is not very appealing, he tends to take interest in only the fun things. Transfiguration is probably his favorite class because the professor keeps things interesting and manages to hold his attention. Healing his second best because with that knowledge, he can help save lives. Something that is very personal to him. Then there are class likes Charms and Defense Against the Dark Arts that are useful for everyday tasks and of course protection, but what Elliot really likes is Ancient Runes. It's challenging and he likes a good challenge. Things that relate back to his life on the far are probably the classes he should excel in, but don't. He wants to learn new things, so class likes Herbology and Care of Magical Creatures aren't his best. He's done enough farming taking care of animals to find the subjects distasteful despite the magical properties, and you won't catch him in a Muggle Studies class, he's been there, done that and even if it was an easy grade, he'd rather not.
WEAKNESSES: Elliot has the tendency to come off as indifferent. He doesn't pick sides unless it involves his family and with his reserved demeanor, he comes off as a loner, but he's a really great friend and quite friendly once one gets to know him, if you can get past that generally uninterested look that he gives you when you're speaking. It's of course not intentional, he's more than likely sizing you up. Family is a weakness, but also a strength. He'd go to the ends to the ends of the earth for his family, but he'd give up everything if it meant keeping them safe. Then there's the general things, like the fact that he is terrified of clowns. He went to the circus as a child, and distinctly remembers freaking out at the sight of a painted white face and big fluffy red hair. Or how he always used to cry whenever the pigs got too plump because that meant they would have bacon, which he refuses to eat.
STRENGTHS: Elliot grew up on farm. He's helped birth cows and if you've ever seen a cow give birth, you know one needs a strong stomach. Things that normal people find gross and stomach wrenching doesn't phase him, whether it's blood, slime, or gunk. Elliot has no issue with getting dirty. He's hard working and gets the job done. He's got the right mindset that he needs to do what needs to be done before he can really have fun. He's fairly responsible for his age. Elliot can also hold himself during a time of crisis, a lesson he learned the hard way when his father passed away when he was only ten. Keeping a level head tends to make things a bit easier to deal with. He is also physically strong from all the work he does when at home.
QUIRKS & HABITS: One won't find Elliot with his head in a book, but that doesn't mean you can't find him in the library where he's usually taking a cat nap. He has several spots around the school where he sort of hides out from the world, like the empty classroom or the empty tower. Elliot also has a massive appetite, he's a growing boy after all, so the kitchens is also a favorite spot of his.
OVERALL PERSONALITY DESCRIPTION: Elliot is a farm boy through and through. He's hard working, does what he's told, and respects his elders. He rarely finds himself in trouble, for he'd much rather keep his nose clean instead of having his siblings worrying over him due to nonsense. That and it seems the position of trouble maker was taken by his older brother Pierre. Elliot prefers to keep his nose out of other people's business and doesn't care for anything that deals with hearsay. He likes to get his information directly from the source, but he does so without stirring up trouble. He's seen enough hardship in his life to know what he wants to do with his life. His family means the world to him, and he'd do anything for them, and despite how much he loves the farm, he doesn't want to spend his entire life there. Being muggleborn he's had the chance to see that there is more to life than cattle and sheep, but he's yet to work up the courage to tell his family as much.
Elliot doesn't hang out with just anyone. He tends to pick his friends carefully, a result of knowing that his brother's friends were the cause of their father's death. He tries not to make enemies, keeping his head down most of the time, but in regards to those that don't particularly like him, Elliot keeps his guard up. He's fairly reserved, but very laid back. He doesn't have a mean streak or a short fuse, but cross his family and he doesn't mind throwing a few punches. At home he's fun and playful, but at school he's very relaxed, unless he's around his cousins Eilidh and Nathaira McKinnon. To him, school is not a place for horseplay and lollygagging, in his mind, magic could solve a lot of their problems, for instance it could have saved their father from dying of fatal wounds, or helped to keep their mother from passing of fever, so he wants to get the best out of this education. With that being said, Elliot does not exactly find school appealing. The classes are long, the people are noisy, and the homework is dreadful, but you won't see him complaining.

CHARACTER HISTORY: Elliot Moreau is the third and youngest son of the deceased Cain and Emily Moreau. As the youngest boy, Elliot had plenty of people to look up to, but he had his shot of setting an example when his little sister Angelica was born. Growing up, Elliot was hardworking and always willing to lend a helping hand. He liked to help out his family and being a boy he never minded getting his hands dirty. This usually meant he was playing in the mud with the pigs or chasing after the chickens, but of course that was after he finished his chores. Work first, play later was something he believed in. With a loving family and an awesome farm where he had plenty of room to grow and develop, Elliot was extremely lively, that was until his robbers tore his entire world apart.
The death of his father shook Elliot's entire world. He looked up to his father, respected him, and wanted to be just like him, and suddenly he was gone in the blink of an eye. Elliot's life would never be the same. Following the death of his father, the family just seemed to fall apart. Elliot was too young to do anything, but he tried to help ease the burden by helping out. He went about his days trying to help keep the farm from falling apart. He worked by day and cried by night, usually hiding out in the barn with the farm animals. When Pierre started to get in trouble for stealing, Elliot wanted to tell him to stop, because he didn't want to lose anymore family members, but he didn't have the courage to do so. However, the world was cruel and his mother passed away the winter after his father's death and Pierre ended up in jail. Life just didn't seem to be going right anymore, so Elliot vowed to stay out of trouble. When his mother passed, he took it a lot less hard. He had accepted the fact that life could be cruel and unpredictable. He had to be calm in this crisis, else things wouldn't get better and he didn't want the older ones worrying about him.
When his Hogwarts letter arrived, Elliot was pretty excited. He'd be starting with his cousins and it was an opportunity to learn knew things and figure out why he was different from his other family members. The first year at Hogwarts was fascinating, even if he couldn't quite manage to stay awake through all his classes. It was always a pleasure to write back home and during the breaks he got to show them his books with all the spells in it, and all of his good grades and it was a brilliant new chapter opening in his life. Of course his greatest joy came from his Flying class, but unfortunately he'd have to wait until his third year before he could get himself a broom. That year he joined the Quidditch team. Naturally reserved at school, Quidditch was there one activity where he felt weightless, like nothing in the world could touch him.
It was during his fifth year that he secretly decided that he didn't want to spend the rest of his life on the farm. He'd learned so much, and he didn't think he'd be able to use all his knowledge on the farm. Of course it made household chores easier, but Elliot knows he can really do something with his magic. For one, he'd learned all about Healing, a skill that could have saved his father and maybe even his mother. He's yet to tell his family about it though. Honestly he'd feel like a hypocrite for being upset with Frederic for leaving the farm. With that being said, Elliot is in his sixth year now and he's still figuring things out bit by bit.
