Name: Liam Alexander Firth
Age: 25
Birthday: February 7th
Gender: Male
House and/or Occupation: Gryffindor Graduate, now a bartender in The Three Broomsticks in Hogsmeade
Residence: Hogsmeade, England.
Pet: A blue and gold macaw named Claud; the bird is oft perched on his shoulder or in its open cage at the end of the bar. The thing has learned a number of nasty words over the years and makes for a comical conversational partner.
Appearance: Not too impressive in height at five foot seven, he has some athletic qualities to make up for it from his years in Hogwarts as a quidditch player, and years before that in football (soccer) in muggle school. He's got energetic grey eyes that tilt between that and blue depending on the weather and the compliments of his clothing. He has short brown cropped hair into a fauxhawk fashion and tends to serve mostly muggle-fashioned attire under a thin robe due to personal comfort.
Personality: Liam is a generally level-headed individual and it's perhaps this quality that makes him a good bartender. He has a knack for being a bit too right about things, and some people even like to spread rumors about him being a seer, but he confidently passes it off as common sense. He enjoys telling stories and is apt to keep an audience around with some nasty interjections from his parrot. Generally he's a light-hearted guy and is good to listen and shoot advice to individuals with problems. He is generally a compassionate fellow but will not hesitate to initiate a good debate if the opportunity is posed.
History: Liam was born and raised in Muggle London to a single mother. He has one younger muggle sister who did not receive a Hogwarts letter, and aside from those of the wizarding world, his family are the only individuals knowledgeable to his magical features. He was sorted into Gryffindor likely for his competitive spunk and loyalty to friends and family.
He graduated with average grades and moved on to an independent lifestyle where he was a merchant for a short time in diagon alley before he had to close up shop with the drop in economy and instead took on a job in Hogsmeade at a bartender. He enjoys his work and visits home often via apparation or floo powder; he doesn't commonly share his muggle background with individuals mostly out of fear for their safety and will rarely speak of his homelife to prevent any harm to his family, what with the bloodline-worshipping individuals that occasionally wander through the bar.
