ʜᴏɢᴡᴀʀᴛs ʏᴇᴀʀ

◢ Sixth

ʜᴏɢᴡᴀʀᴛs ʜᴏᴜsᴇ

◢ ʜᴏᴜsᴇ | Hufflepuff

   Wax cascaded down the candles twinkling

        with warm light, hanging mid-air in the

        great hall. They floated in the illusionist

        dreamscape that was the ceiling of the

        Great Hall; swirling colours of enchanting

        violets and blues created an expansive

        night sky with glittering stars.

        A jittery, sweaty-palmed Klaus shuffled

        amongst the crowd of his fellow

        anticipatory eleven year olds, each one of

        them pushing and shoving to try and worm

        their way to the front of the mob. Eventually

        they reached the end of the walk, getting

        Klaus to stop awkwardly mid-step as the

        group halted.

       He couldn't see that well over all of the

        taller heads, his growth spurt yet to have hit

        him. From what he could see, a

        friendly-faced professor grasped a piece of

        parchment, standing beside an object that

        Klaus couldn't discern properly. They gave

        an introductory speech, from which Klaus

        couldn't recall looking back on the memory.

        concluding the introduction, the professor

        held up a tattered old hat, clearly having

        been around since the dawn of time. It

        belted out a song, which erupted faint

        giggles from a couple first years in the

        crowd.

       A long finger dragged along the parchment,

        and the professor began reading out the

        first years, starting with those with

        surnames at the beginning of the alphabet.  

        The professor drawled each surname, and

        one by one, each giddy or sick-to-their-

       stomach-terrified first year sat on a rickety  

        stool. The sorting hat belted out a house,

        with uproar from a separate table with each

        jaunty exclamation from the headgear.

       "Nomura-Pfeiffer, Klaus."

       A jolt shot up in his shoulders as the figure

        at the front of the Great Hall called to him.

        He shuffled through shoulders and torsos,

        trudging nervously to the stool and sitting     

        himself down on the wooden seat. The

        professor placed the hat upon his unruly

        dark hair (he hoped that none of those   

        other first years had lice), and Klaus shifted

        in his seat.

        "Anxious, boy?" The jovial hat blabbered.

        "You're quite the tricky one, aren't you?

        You've got a brave heart inside all of that

        nervousness, lad; a warm one, too. You go

        out of your way to do the right thing for

        those who need you, and you've got a kind

        soul that doesn't give in. The perfect fit for

        you is. . . Hufflepuff!"

       A table of yellow and black robes burst up

        from their seats, applause and uproarious

        cheers erupting from the students. The     

        professor ushered him off the seat as he

        pursued a delayed exit from the front to his

        new table. Prefects and older students

        shook his hand and clapped him on the

        back and ruffled his hair.

       There had been times where belonging

        never happened for Klaus. He looked

        different and acted different and kids didn't

        like that. But here? His heart swelled as

        everyone, no matter their opinion of him,

        welcomed him simply because they were

        the same — in some way — to him.

ʜᴏɢᴡᴀʀᴛs sᴜʙᴊᴇᴄᴛs

◢ ʙᴇsᴛ sᴜʙᴊᴇᴄᴛ | Charms

   His life outside of Hogwarts continues to

        revolve around magic and spellcasting, as

        his mothers are both pureblooded witches,

        and both include magic in every day living,

        both at home and in their careers. Klaus

        knows his way around many spells just due

        to his home life. He struggles a bit with

        incantations because of a slight and

       unresolved speech impediment, but he gets

        by with E's and A's in the class.

◢ ᴡᴏʀsᴛ sᴜʙᴊᴇᴄᴛ | History of Magic

   History of Magic is the most difficult

        subject to wrap his head around. Klaus

        oftentimes mixes up dates and times;

       events and timelines end up twisting and

        winding together in his brain, which doesn't

        bode well for his final exams. No matter

        how hard he tries, he cannot find a way to

        get his academics for that class above his

        comfortable spot at very low below

        average.

◢ ғᴀᴠᴏᴜʀɪᴛᴇ sᴜʙᴊᴇᴄᴛ | Flying

   He is a Quidditch-head, through and

        through. He follows all of the professional

        games, and has posters plastered in his

        room of the Montrose Magpies, and often

        seems to find a way to bring the sport up in

        conversations where it would otherwise be    

        complete irrelevant. Considering this,

        Flying is an easy favourite class of his. It's

        quite easy to , and in a controlled

        environment the thrill of flying on a broom

        is always the selling point.

◢ ᴅᴇsᴘɪsᴇᴅ sᴜʙᴊᴇᴄᴛ | COMC

   It's not that he despises the creatures he

        works with. Merlin's sake, no — quite the

        opposite! He loves magical creatures and

        learning about them. However. . . they do

        not feel the same about Klaus. In fact,

       most differently. Often, the creatures he

        interacts with seem to have a disdain for

        him, typically going in the opposite

        direction of him, and a couple of them have

        been less than gentle with him. He hasn't

        pinpointed it yet, but the lad is the opposite

        of good with most animals.

ᴡᴀɴᴅ

◢ ᴡᴀɴᴅ ᴡᴏᴏᴅ | Black walnut

       ❝ Black walnut is a very handsome wood,

        but not the easiest to master. It has one

        pronounced quirk, which is that it is

        abnormally attuned to inner conflict, and

        loses power dramatically if its possessor

        practises any form of self-deception. If the

        witch or wizard is unable or unwilling to be

        honest with themselves or others, the wand

        often fails to perform adequately. ❞

◢ ᴡᴀɴᴅ ᴄᴏʀᴇ | Phoenix feather

       ❝ This is the rarest core type. Phoenix

        feathers are capable of the greatest range

        of magic, though they may take longer than

        either unicorn or dragon cores to reveal

        this. They show the most initiative,

        sometimes acting of their own accord, a

        quality that many witches and wizards

        dislike. ❞

◢ ᴡᴀɴᴅ ʟᴇɴɢᴛʜ | Thirteen inches

◢ ᴡᴀɴᴅ ғʟᴇxɪʙɪʟɪᴛʏ | Fairly bendy

ᴍᴀɢɪᴄᴀʟ ᴘᴇᴛ

◢ ɴᴀᴍᴇ | Bagel

   Do NOT let Klaus name animals.

       He was eating a cheese bagel when his

        moms brought the dog home as a surprise

        for him. He picked the first item he was

        holding in his hand.

◢ sᴘᴇᴄɪᴇs | French bulldog

◢ ɢᴇɴᴅᴇʀ | Male

◢ ᴀʙɪʟɪᴛɪᴇs | Chewing anything to bits

   It could be Klaus' Quidditch gear, the edges

        of the common room carpet, or his own

        collar: Bagel will seek out that everything is

        ruined with indents from his canines.

ᴘᴀᴛʀᴏɴᴜs

◢ ᴀɴɪᴍᴀʟ | Border collie

◢ ʜᴀᴘᴘɪᴇsᴛ ᴍᴇᴍᴏʀʏ

   Klaus desperately tries to find another

        happiest memory for his patronus, but

        using any memory aside a specific

        Valentine's Day dance proves his patronus

        to be non-corporeal.

ʙᴏɢɢᴀʀᴛ

◢ ʙᴏɢɢᴀʀᴛ ғᴏʀᴍ | Failure

"Klaus Nomura-Pfeiffer. . ."

       A voice came from inside the wardrobe,

        thick with the poison of disapproval. With

       one hand wrapped around the door, it

        creaked open, and out stepped his

        mother, her long fingers gripping a report

       card tightly.

       "With all we've done to nurture your

         academics, Klaus?" His mom tutted,

         waving a wad of P's and T's in front of

         him. "You have the most opportunities out

         of all of your siblings. It's about time you're

         grateful for it, you hear me?"

         The Boggart grew closer, allowing Klaus to

         sink deeper and deeper into the collar of

         his shirt, wand held tightly in a wobbly fist.

        "Your mother and I," she (or it, he

         supposes) sighs, "don't ask for much,

         Klaus, honey. All we ask of you is for you

         to work hard so you can do something

         good to help the family. We even let you

         run off to play that silly sport of yours —

         the least you can do is do better in school.

         You said teachers like you, but clearly you      

         just aren't studying hard enough. I'm very

         disappointed in you."

◢ ʀᴇᴀᴄᴛɪᴏɴ

With an unsteady hand, Klaus stared down

        the figure shaped like his mother, and

        raised up his wand. The Boggart looked

       aghast.

        "Klaus! Raising your wand at your own

        mother! Have you no respect? Were you

        even listening to me?"

       Wincing, he recites, "Riddikulus," and the

        beam of the spell hits the Boggart. It

        bursts into glittering confetti, floating down

        to the floor.

ᴀᴍᴏʀᴛᴇɴᴛɪᴀ

◢ ғʀᴀɢʀᴀɴᴄᴇ ɪ | Turf in the rain

After years of Quidditch practice out in

        storms and walks in light showers, Klaus

        has learned to love the smell of the earth

        that permeates the air after it has drizzled.

◢ ғʀᴀɢʀᴀɴᴄᴇ ɪɪ | Lavender detergent

He knows the exact reason behind the

       scent, but he refuses to it it, even to

        himself.

◢ ғʀᴀɢʀᴀɴᴄᴇ ɪɪɪ | Hot cider

Every holiday break back home, his family

        makes homemade cider. The smell in the

        kitchen is phenomenal, and it makes his

        heart (and his stomach!) warm.

sᴘᴇᴄɪᴀʟ ᴀʙɪʟɪᴛɪᴇs

◢ ᴀʙɪʟɪᴛʏ ɪ | Animagus

       Ever since his fifth year, Klaus has been an

       Animagus. His form is that of a border

       collie, freckled with spots that resemble

       his eczema and acne scars.

__________________________________________

ᴘʜʏsɪϙᴜᴇ

◢ ʙᴏᴅʏ ᴛʏᴘᴇ | Trapezoid

◢ ᴍᴜsᴄᴜʟᴀᴛᴜʀᴇ | Lean

   He isn't the strongest, but thanks to newly

        being a Student Ranger and his affinity for

        Quidditch, he's built up a fair bit of a small

        amount of muscle. He's proud of it, too, as

        he used to have a difficult relationship with

        his body and food. He's found a happy

        place with his body.

◢ sᴄᴇɴᴛ | Cologne

   Klaus doesn't use a lot of cologne. Just

        enough so he smells fine.

◢ ʜᴇɪɢʜᴛ | 5'8"

◢ ᴡᴇɪɢʜᴛ | 65kg

ʜᴀɪʀ

◢ ᴄᴏʟᴏᴜʀ | Deep brown

       It typically appears dark brown to black,

        with hints of auburn from his mother's half.

◢ ᴛᴇxᴛᴜʀᴇ | Soft, well-conditioned

       Klaus pours his heart and soul into his hair!

◢ ʟᴇɴɢᴛʜ | Shoulder-length

◢ ʜᴀɪʀsᴛʏʟᴇs

       His hair will fluctuate based on the time of

        day and the activities he's doing. The two

        most common styles of his include it being

        down, or a lopsided ponytail.

sᴋɪɴ

◢ ᴄᴏᴍᴘʟᴇxɪᴏɴ | Tan complexion, and

         mostly clear skin.

◢ ʙʟᴇᴍɪsʜᴇs/ғʀᴇᴄᴋʟᴇs/ᴍᴀʀᴋɪɴɢs

He has freckles dotting his forearms and

        shoulders.

ᴇʏᴇs

◢ ᴇʏᴇ sʜᴀᴘᴇ | Almond

◢ ɪʀɪs ᴄᴏʟᴏᴜʀ | Brown; honey in sunlight

◢ ɢʟᴀssᴇs | Yes, with stubbornness

Klaus' vision is absolutely terrible, but he

        only ever wears his glasses alone when

        studying, to avoid embarrassment. He says

        that his glasses make his head look big.

        Which they definitely do.

ʜᴀɴᴅs

◢ ᴅᴏᴍɪɴᴀɴᴛ ʜᴀɴᴅ | Left

◢ ғɪɴɢᴇʀɴᴀɪʟs

After breaking the habit of biting his nails

        because of his anxiety, he's been able to

        grow them past being stumps. They're a

        little uneven but they're all right.

◢ ᴀᴘᴘᴇᴀʀᴀɴᴄᴇ

Aside from Quidditch matches, they aren't

        too beaten up and he keeps them in decent

        condition with hand cream. You'll usually

        find notes of smudged and smeared ink on

        his right palm from when he needs to

        something. He'll write it down

        on his hand (because he always has a pen

        with him), but he'll forget about the note

        and sweat it off by the end of the day. Lots

        of History of Magic assignments have

        been late due to this.

ᴘʀᴇғᴇʀʀᴇᴅ ᴀᴛᴛɪʀᴇ

◢ Anything comfortable; his fashion sense

        is typically not the most tasteful. However,

        he knows a decent outfit when he sees one,

        making his code of dress just slightly

        stylish.

ᴅᴇғɪɴɪɴɢ ᴄʜᴀʀᴀᴄᴛᴇʀɪsᴛɪᴄ

◢ His smile.

__________________________________________

sᴘᴏᴋᴇɴ ʟᴀɴɢᴜᴀɢᴇ(s)

◢ ɴᴀᴛɪᴠᴇ (ᴘʀɪᴍᴀʀʏ) | English: fluent

With his biological mother speaking

        English as her first language, he naturally

        grew up with it as his native tongue.

◢ sᴇᴄᴏɴᴅᴀʀʏ | Japanese: unexplored

Klaus used to speak it when his dad would

        visit, but ever since he stopped showing up

        to the Pfeiffer household, there was a

        decline in Klaus practicing it and he has

        since forgotten a few pronunciations and

        has no personal need to dive back into it.

◢ ᴛᴇʀᴛɪᴀʀʏ | Arabic: abandoned

He started learning it for a certain girl

        that he liked, but he seems to be unaware

       of the scope of their situation nowadays.

        His mother urges him to practice it, still,

       so he may hold a conversation with ever

       more depth than a, "how is school?" with

       his reply of a, "good," with his extended

        family on one of his mama's sides.

sᴘᴇᴀᴋɪɴɢ ᴀᴄᴄᴇɴᴛ

◢ Scottish

       It's not terribly thick, but when he gets tired

        you'll really hear it come through.

ᴡʀɪᴛɪɴɢ ʟᴀɴɢᴜᴀɢᴇ(s)

◢ ɴᴀᴛɪᴠᴇ (ᴘʀɪᴍᴀʀʏ) | English: fluent

ᴄᴏᴍᴘʀᴇʜᴇɴsɪʙʟᴇ ʟᴀɴɢᴜᴀɢᴇ(s)

◢ N/A

ʜᴀɴᴅᴡʀɪᴛɪɴɢ sᴛʏʟᴇ

◢ A little sloppy. Long, thin letters with

        wide spacing. When he makes a mistake

        he typically will just cross it out instead of

        erasing it.

ᴠᴏɪᴄᴇ

◢ ᴠᴏɪᴄᴇ ᴅᴇsᴄʀɪᴘᴛɪᴏɴ

A little on the higher pitch side, but

        traditionally "masculine." His voice still  

        cracks despite being quite past that part of

        puberty, and he has a stutter frequently.

◢ ᴛʜᴇ sᴏᴜɴᴅ ᴏғ ᴛʜᴇɪʀ ʟᴀᴜɢʜ

Very giggly; tends to run out of breath

        quickly and it shortly turns into a noiseless

        wheeze. Typically accompanied by either a

        stomach clench or a head hold if it's hard

        laughter.

ᴄᴏʟʟᴏϙᴜɪᴀʟ ᴘʜʀᴀsᴇs

◢ "Merlin's beard."

◢ "Pure dead brilliant!"

◢ "Aye!"

◢ "Cheers."

ᴘʀᴏғᴀɴɪᴛɪᴇs ᴀɴᴅ ɪɴsᴜʟᴛs

◢ ᴘʜʀᴀsᴇ | "Oh, sugar"

In attempts to censor himself round his

        siblings, he often stops himself at the

        profanities at the first syllable, and cutting

       himself off with a variation of confection

       or food. His most common one is sugar in

       replacement for. . . well, you know what.

◢ ᴘʜʀᴀsᴇ | "Dweeb"

Klaus has never been one for insults. He

       leans towards the lighthearted ones, such

       as "dork," "nerd," "dweeb," and anything else

       a child would call you in the schoolyard.

sᴇɴsᴇ ᴏғ ʜᴜᴍᴏᴜʀ

◢ It isn't hard to make him laugh, and it's

        even easier to make him laugh in very

        serious situations. From pitiful puns to

        witty jabs, he laughs at nearly everything

        and apologizes that he does so.

ᴘ ʀ ᴏ ғ ɪ ʟ ᴇ

__________________________________________

__________________________________________

ᴄʜᴀʀᴀᴄᴛᴇʀ ᴛʀᴀɪᴛs

◢ ᴘᴏsɪᴛɪᴠᴇ | Upbeat

Many say Klaus can bring up the spirits of

        a room to the best of his abilities. He's a

        good sport in Quidditch, and is always

        skipping his way into the Common Room

        (and tripping through the picture frame in

        the meanwhile).

◢ ᴘᴏsɪᴛɪᴠᴇ | Thoughtful

He tends to think of others as a way of

        thinking for himself. He needs to make

        sure that those he loves and cares for know

        that they're appreciated and that he kinds

        of them fondly and often. It's important

        that they're aware!

◢ ɴᴇᴜᴛʀᴀʟ | Heedful

Klaus is very much the cautious type.

        Despite being head over heels for Quidditch

        and having a thrill for adventure, he always

        is one to make sure everyone has a

        seatbelt fastened or that his teammates

        have applied sunblock and refueled their

        electrolytes.

◢ ɴᴇᴜᴛʀᴀʟ | Idealistic

While he tries his best to aim for realism,

        he oftentimes finds his mind wandering to

        strive for visionary and sometimes

        extremely impractical ideals. He's an

        idealist and romantic at heart, and while it

        helps him reach his goals, he can get lost

        in his dreamy headspace.

◢ ɴᴇɢᴀᴛɪᴠᴇ | Frustratingly indecisive

This trait speaks for itself. Ever since he

        was a child, he's always had trouble picking  

        two options when they both pose their own

        pros and cons. When visiting Hogsmeade,

        he'll have his friends visiting with him

        decide the itinerary, because if you let him

        take charge you'll be there until nightfall

        simply looking for a place to eat.

◢ ɴᴇɢᴀᴛɪᴠᴇ | Obsessive

Klaus is very good at hyperfocusing on a   

        topic or activity for an extended period of

        time, whether that be hours or even days,

        convinced that he needed to do it perfectly.

        The longest his obsession on a specific

        thing has lasted is two weeks, when all he

        wanted to do was perfect his Charms

        homework, even after he'd handed in his

        assignment and his housemates would

        consistently tell him that his wand

        movement was just fine.

ᴛʏᴘɪᴄᴀʟ ᴅᴇᴍᴇᴀɴᴏᴜʀ

◢ Klaus' demeanour can best be compared

        to a nervous dog. While upbeat and

        excitable, he's quite jumpy and seems to

        fumble around and has a lack of spacial

        awareness. He's a bit of an awkward bloke.

ʜᴀʙɪᴛs

◢ ʜᴀʙɪᴛ | Stammering

His mouth tends to work faster than his

        brain, and since he tends to overthink the

        way he interacts with people, most of his

        quick responses are jumbled letters.

◢ ʜᴀʙɪᴛ | Bouncing his leg

Klaus needs to be constantly moving.

        However, he cannot be constantly moving

        during class time. Therefore, he practically

        shakes his desk and the entire floor with

        his knee each lesson.

ϙᴜɪʀᴋs

◢ ϙᴜɪʀᴋ | Incredibly fast walker

◢ ϙᴜɪʀᴋ | Nervous tic in his shoulder

sɪᴛᴛɪɴɢ ᴘᴏsᴛᴜʀᴇ

◢ Improving. His slouch from first to third

        year was nothing short of horrendous, but

        since he's gotten serious with Quidditch,

        he's noticed that the better his posture is

        the better he plays. A slouch also does

        nothing for his height (or lack thereof), so

        he's trying his best.

ʜᴏʙʙɪᴇs

◢ ᴀᴄᴛɪᴠɪᴛʏ | Quidditch

Ever since his third year, Klaus has been

        enamored with the sport of Quidditch (very

        obviously, if you've gotten this far). Posters

        cling to his walls and gear is scattered all

        over his living quarters. He simply can't

        get enough of it.

◢ ᴀᴄᴛɪᴠɪᴛʏ | Playing guitar

Inspired by his first girlfriend, Maybelle, he

        took up guitar and enjoyed it thoroughly.

        While his fingers still awkwardly fumble

        with the strings, he's still learning.

◢ ᴀᴄᴛɪᴠɪᴛʏ | Running

After taking up Quidditch, he realized he

        found solace in agility sports. Thusly, he

        finds enjoyment in track during the summer

        at home, and sprints on the field when the

        dreadful Hogwarts weather allows it.

ᴛᴀʟᴇɴᴛs ᴀɴᴅ sᴘᴇᴄɪᴀʟɪᴛɪᴇs

◢ Music

Though you shan't ever hear him sing

        (watch out for your ear drums if you do),

        he's adept in both the aforementioned

        guitar and piano, and can catch on rather

        quickly when it comes to learning sheet

        music.

◢ Baking

   Thanks to growing up surrounded by it,

        there isn't a thing Klaus couldn't whip up in

        the Hogwarts kitchens. His mothers have

        shown him each possible tactic that he

        could possibly know, except for piping icing

        properly. The decorating was ed off to

        his younger sisters after an unfortunate

        display made by Klaus. It's embarrassing

        that a twelve year old can pipe a rosette

        and he cannot.

ᴀғғɪɴɪᴛɪᴇs

◢ Gardens

With a pollen allergy, it's funny how

        gardens have become places that Klaus

        finds solace in. His grandmother on his

        father's side was always surrounded by

        flowers in her quaint living space, and kept

        many miniature gardens on table spaces

        and shelves. Every time he visits one, he

        gets a pang of missing home (alongside a

        runny nose).

◢ Writing

While he may not be adept with a pen,

        Klaus finds writing (anything, really, but

        mostly half-baked poetry) a common

        pastime, and a great way for him to

        express himself.

ᴀᴠᴇʀsɪᴏɴs

◢ Floo Powder travel

You're telling him he has to entire a

        fireplace and speak perfectly in order to go

       exactly where he wants to go? Then, he is

       engulfed by flames? And, if he doesn't utter

       every word with ease, he'll end up in some

       sideways version of his desired destination?

        No thank you.

ᴘᴇᴛ ᴘᴇᴇᴠᴇs

◢ Cheating

◢ Others thinking he is a doormat

Due to Klaus' timid outer shell, many of

        those who have interacted with him at a

        first glance often think he's someone that

        you can walk all over. And while, in some

        instances, he doesn't do much to actually

        stop it. . . it's annoying nonetheless.

ᴘʜᴏʙɪᴀs ᴀɴᴅ ғᴇᴀʀs

◢ Spiders and creepy crawlies

He's never been the brave type, as when he

        sees a spider or something else with far

        too many legs ("Two or four are plenty!

        Who decided on eight?!") shows up by his

        bedside table, you're bound to wake up due

        to a horrid screeching noise. You won't

        need an alarm clock if you plant a bug in  

        Klaus' bed (something a certain Charlie has

        done before).

◢ Heights

Don't bother, he knows it's ironic for the

        Quidditch fanatic to not stand looking

        down when he plays. That's why, evidently,

        he doesn't look down, lest the players

        prefer vomit instead of Bludgers as

       obstacles.

ɪɴsᴇᴄᴜʀɪᴛɪᴇs

◢ His stutter

Out of all of his traits, most often children

        would choose to mock his stutter and his

        trouble with fumbling words. It's hard to

        like it when most of his peers would parrot

        his stammers back to him. There isn't an      

        impossibility that those around him may

        mock him for it yet.

◢ His possible queerness

There is no doubt that growing up with the

        boys in his neighbourhood have instilled a

        greater fear of anything seen as "other."

        This includes, of course, the lack of

        heterosexuality.

ᴍɪɴᴅsᴇᴛ

◢ ᴛʏᴘᴇ | Growth

Klaus is always learning, and he knows and

        accepts that. It is impossible for someone

        to know everything, and he isn't exempt

        from that. He is always growing, he says,

        even if it's just by learning something new

        in Potions (which isn't often, because he

        tends to zone out when the professor

       drawls on about the importance of the

       dryness of Billywig stings or some other

       matter).

ʟᴇᴀʀɴɪɴɢ sᴛʏʟᴇ

◢ ᴛʏᴘᴇ | Kinesthetic

Not only needing intense step-by-step

        instructions followed by approval for each

        step — very sour thanks to his anxiety —

        when completing any new task; Klaus

        typically requires hands on experience

        while a practiced peer is watching him

        closely so he doesn't "Klaus it all up" (his  

        words, not mine).

ᴍᴏʀᴀʟ ᴀʟɪɢɴᴍᴇɴᴛ

◢ ᴀʟɪɢɴᴍᴇɴᴛ | Neutral Good

ғɪᴠᴇ-ғᴀᴄᴛᴏʀ ᴍᴏᴅᴇʟ

◢ ᴏᴘᴇɴɴᴇss ᴛᴏ ᴇxᴘᴇʀɪᴇɴᴄᴇ | 90%

Based on all of the sudden turns, ups, and

        downs in his life, it would be difficult for

        him to hate change so. Therefore, he

        chooses to embrace it, and enjoys

        spontaneous adventures and seeks it often

        when he can.

◢ ᴄᴏɴᴛɪᴇɴᴛɪᴏᴜsɴᴇss | 75%

       Despite being a bit of a fool, most of the

        time, Klaus is aware of what he is doing

        and how he is doing it — or, rather, how he

        is doing it wrong.

◢ ᴇxᴛʀᴀᴠᴇʀsɪᴏɴ | 50%

It is truly dependent on the situation. If it is

        in a tense classroom environment, he

        tends to lose all of the air in his throat. If

        he's playing Quidditch or being boisterous

        in the common room, he's as loud as a

        firecracker (and has the energy of one, too).

◢ ᴀɢʀᴇᴇᴀʙʟᴇɴᴇss | 80%

Especially when it comes to his friends,

        Klaus manages to be easy to sway and

        convince, even if the morals may be out of

        his own favour. For those he trusts (even

        with fickle judgement), he finds that he

        puts his life in their hands if it means

        seeing them pleased.

◢ ɴᴇᴜʀᴏᴛɪᴄɪsᴍ | 65%

Being the anxious person he is, there are

        peaks and valleys to his mental. . . stability.

        He has trouble being articulate when he

        reaches his valleys, especially in logical

       thinking. His mind is never inactive, and it's

        only an issue when he fails to keep it from

        controlling him.

ᴘsʏᴄʜᴏʟᴏɢɪᴄᴀʟ ᴍᴇᴛʜᴏᴅᴏʟᴏɢʏ

◢ ᴘᴇʀᴄᴇᴘᴛɪᴏɴ | Sensation

Unfortunately for him, his intuition has

        never been up to snuff. He has trouble with

        trusting his gut, and instead uses his keen

        enough observations to rely on perceiving

        the world around him.

◢ ᴊᴜᴅɢᴇᴍᴇɴᴛ | Feeling

Klaus has never been a rational thinker. He

        acts with his heart, and is sympathetic and

        forgiving in his judgement (albeit, it may be

        flawed at times).

ᴍʏᴇʀs-ʙʀɪɢɢs ᴘᴇʀsᴏɴᴀʟɪᴛʏ

◢ ESFP | The Entertainer

❝ They are observant, and very sensitive to

        others’ emotions. People with this

        personality type are often the first to help      

        someone talk out a challenging problem,

        happily providing emotional and

        practical advice. More focused on leaping

        at opportunities than in planning out

        long-term goals, Entertainers may find that

        their inattentiveness has made some

        activities unaffordable. ❞

sᴇʟғ-ᴘᴇʀᴄᴇᴘᴛɪᴏɴ

◢ Klaus doesn't think too highly of himself.

        He sees himself a bit as an awkward fellow,

        and he thinks that maybe he's a bit too hard

        to get along with at times due to his  

        awkwardness and lack of social prowess:   

        cues and tone are not his forte. Alas, he

        knows he is kind to his friends and loyal to  

        his family. That's all he needs.

ᴏᴜᴛᴡᴀʀᴅ ɪᴍᴘʀᴇssɪᴏɴ

◢ For a surface level impression, many

        may find Klaus to be awkward, clumsy, and

        overall a bit of a bumbling idiot at first

        glance. Those may be inclined to be

        convinced that his fine motor skills are

        lacking and that he's someone who cannot

        hold a conversation. After getting to know

        him, he still may fit this criteria, but his

        friends also know him as a gentle person

        with a kind heart. Thank you to Paris for

       helping me with this section!

Every year, without fail, Nadia makes him a

Every time Feiruz takes the Pfeiffers to visit

Upon his very first time mounting a broom

        thankful he didn't lose the eye, or else his

       right below his temple to meet his

Thanks to his inability to keep scabs on his

◢ ᴘᴀʀᴇɴᴛ | Shaun Nomura

He'd rather not think about it.

◢ ᴘᴀʀᴇɴᴛ | Nadia Eveline Pfeiffer

Being the oldest of Nadia's and additionally

        being the one of two children she had with

        his father, it can be hard to connect with

        her at times. He can tell that she sees

        Shaun's face in his. Nevertheless, he loves

        his mother. He'd do anything for her in a

        heartbeat for her, truly, and doesn't regret

        thinking as such. Even if there is truly a

        space between them, he gets solemn if he

        thinks about it too much.

       Nadia cares deeply for her children, and is

        grateful for every one of them. She puts a

        lot of pressure on Klaus, being the eldest

        and the one his siblings look up to —

        perhaps a bit too much. He doesn't hold her

        to it, though. He knows it's probably hard to

        do everything she does.

◢ ᴘᴀʀᴇɴᴛ | Feiruz Sayed

He could tell his ma had a bit of trouble

        coming out of her shell at first. Just a few

        years after Schuyler was born and Shaun

        dissipated from the family tree entirely,

        Feiruz entered, and was quite nervous

        about impressions: especially with Klaus,

        who is the only Pfeiffer child to ever have a

        connection his father. She had never

        properly been a mother before, even more

        so without hiding her true self, ing

        bonds with Nadia. However, she's a tender

        and kind soul, and never hesitates when

        there's something wrong and something in

        return must be done about it.

◢ sɪʙʟɪɴɢ | Schuyler Ivan Nomura-Pfeiffer

Klaus' biological brother, and the second

        oldest of the Pfeiffer children at the age of  

        thirteen. He can be hard to control and a

       bit of a troublemaker, in the. . . least

        exciting manner of the term. Sharing

        Hufflepuff house with Schuyler means that

        he will often have to pause plans with

        friends to babysit his little sibling.

◢ sɪʙʟɪɴɢ | Clare Linnea Pfeiffer

One of Klaus' previous foster and

        now-adopted siblings, being the second-to

        youngest at the age of twelve. Clare is the

        peppiest of the whole family, typically

        greeting strangers with "hello"s and being  

        particularly chatty nearly all of the time.

◢ sɪʙʟɪɴɢ | Natalia Serafina Pfeiffer

The Pfeiffer's second now-adopted child,

        having also gone through the foster

        system. Natalia is a new addition to the

        family being adopted just a couple years

        ago, when she was eight; now being ten.  

        Natalia is very kind-hearted and gets along

        particularly well with Clare. She's much  

        more timid than her older sister, and shares  

        a commonality of anxious tendencies with

        Klaus, which is something that her and

        her brother work through together.

ʀᴏᴍᴀɴᴛɪᴄ ɪɴᴛᴇʀᴇsᴛs

◢ sᴛᴀᴛᴜs | Single

◢ ᴘᴀʀᴛɴᴇʀ | N/A

Now having two failed almost-relationships

       he's totally little over it. "Maybe next year,"

        he tells himself. He should focus on his

       studies, he tells himself. Unfortunately, he

        can't help but be a romantic, even if his

        skills in flirting are less than refined. He's

        especially a sap when he looks back on

        correspondence from one. . . past

        teammate and dance partner.

ғʀɪᴇɴᴅs

◢ ғʀɪᴇɴᴅ | Charlie de la Rivière

Klaus, albeit convinced that sometimes the

       two of them more so enemies than friends,  

        is good pals with Charlie. With a few years

        of friendship behind them, it's hard to not

        have a good time around him.

◢ ғʀɪᴇɴᴅ | Kim Yerim

Yerim is like a little sister to him. Sweet,

        caring, and ever-so-giggly, their friendship

        seems easy and familial. She never fails

       to lift his spirits and cheer her lungs off at

       Quidditch matches.

◢ ғʀɪᴇɴᴅ | Amina Belmonte

Well, it's not like they speak as often

        anymore. However, in the midst of their. . .

        situation. . . Klaus considers them friends.

       There is no doubt that he still has feelings

        for the girl, but without clarification from

        the other party, he sets emotions those

        aside so he can be a good friend to her.

◢ ғʀɪᴇɴᴅs | His fellow student rangers

Erm, he may not know them. . . entirely by

        name. But he considers all of them to be

        his friends!

ʀᴏʟᴇ ᴍᴏᴅᴇʟs

◢ ʀᴏʟᴇ ᴍᴏᴅᴇʟ | Hamish McFarlan

While ceasing his captaining for the

        Montrose Magpies in 1968, Klaus still

        ires his leadership of his favourite

        team. Their activity has been minimal past

        the early 2000s, but banners cling to his

        wall and he has plenty of books about

        them and Quidditch history that cite their

        overall success. McFarlan inspires Klaus'

        broom-work and the way he Captained his

       team last year, and the way he hopes to  

        Captain again once he has the guts to

        re-apply.

◢ ʀᴏʟᴇ ᴍᴏᴅᴇʟ | Nadia

       He thinks his mom is strong and is quite

        irable for it. Despite all of their

        personal hardships and disagreements as

        mother and son, Nadia raised two

        biological children on her own after Klaus'

        father left, and went on to adopt two more

        alongside her wife, all the while caring for

        each of them deeply. Nadia has so much

        love to give despite not getting it back.

        Klaus knows where he gets it from.
