( NICKNAMES ) : Joram (goes by his middle name) Jorrie, Jor, and Jor-Jor
( SEX ) : Male
( BLOOD TYPE ) : Pureblood, tainted (I'm tempting to make him a vampire, if you're unhappy with what I have to offer I can change it, no hard feelings!)
( AGE & DOB ) : June 6th, 16
( YEAR ) : Sixth Year
( HOUSE ) : Hufflepuff
( CANON? ) : No
( OCCUPATION ) : Student
( AFFILIATION ) : Neutral / Leans more to the darker side of things.
( SEXUAL ORIENTATION ) : Heterosexual for the most part. He is curious in other things.
( WAND ) : 9 and 1/10th inches, Holly, Unicorn Hair, very flippy and plain.

( LIKES ) :

• The Ladies: What more is there to explain here, Joram is in love with almost every woman that walks past him. It has been like this for sometime, but unlike others he has some respect toward them. In other words, women are just not meat sacks with legs.
  
• Music: All of his life, Joram has been surrounded by music. His father was a musician through the 1920s and even well into the 1950s, but gave up to take care of his son and get an actual position within the Ministry. Like his father, Joram decided that he too would learn the guitar and quite possibly learn to sing. The only sad part about that was his dexterity. Vincent was right handed, but Joram is left handed. At the age of seven Vincent purchased Joram his own guitar, which was left handed, and everything seemed to blow up from there.
  
• Drugs and Alcohol:Through the 1890s, Vincent suffered from morphine and heroin addiction which also wavered through the birth of his son Joram in 1960. Since Jorrie grew up around wine in Italy, he's grown a tolerance to the taste and drunkeness and he understands the devastation his father would feel if he realized that he too was getting addicted to restricted substances.
  
• Hair:The pride he has in his hair is ridiculous. Joram is a fanatic about his style and updos, so far as to bite a hand of if the fingers get close to touching it. Even though it doesn't look like he does much, he takes his time in the morning and makes definite sure that every strand was in the proper place. He is his father's son.
  
• Fashion: Jorrie is proud of his attire, he usually takes as long as most girls do in the morning trying to pick out what to wear. He has a knack for attire and his wardrobe is larger than that of Adeline Giovanni. Granted it mostly consists of skinny black jeans and pants, band tees and tank tops.
  
• The Center of Attention:It has always been Joram's dream to become a rockstar like the Ramones, Kiss or the Sex Pistols. So he lives like a king in the halls, and makes a point to memorize each and everyone's name, even if he hates them so dearly.
  
• Partying: If there is alcohol involved he is there, Gryffindor Party with Butterbeer? He'll supply the fire whiskey. Slytherin Party with Fire Whiskey? He'll supply the cocaine. It doesn't matter where the party is, he'll be there to lighten people up, and make them experience something more.

( DISLIKES ) :

• Rats: Jorrie is completely terrified of rats, he cannot explain it nor understand it, but with their beady little eyes and disgusting teeth, they give him the heebie-jeebies.
  
• Swimming: When Joram was younger he and his mother went swimming out in the Ionian Sea, that was the last time he ever set foot in water. Caught in an undercurrent he nearly drowned if it wasn't for Elise who saved him. Ever since then he's taken showers instead of baths, as he is that afraid.
  
• His Cousins: Adeline and Oliver had always had everything the could have ever dreamed of. This stems from jealousy as they are naturally good at everything, so he thinks. When the Mortelle's visit the Giovanni's for Christmas break, the twins always got whatever it was they wanted, and they were always the center of attention.
  
• French Food: Joram grew up with a strong history of Italian food, and his father's hatred toward the French sort of became an inbred thing. There was no French food in his home, and he's never had a fascination for them.
  
• Dirt-Bloods: He is a pureblood, so of course anything less than him is considered horrible. Most of this dislike comes from his urge to run and hang out with the darker students, whom of which are mostly Slytherin and pureblood elites.
  
• School Work:Jorrie has never been good at school work, as much as he would like to make his parents proud, he is a straight C student and that is good enough for him. Never in his life had he wanted to become like the Giovanni's so he tries his hardest to stay away from them and their urges to study.
  

( STRENGTHS ) :

• Very Certain: When Joram makes up his mind he will do it and he is very sure that it is what he wants to do no matter the consequences. Knowing how, when, what and who it effects, he always has a plan.
  
• Charismatic: Jorrie is a people person and he talks alot. He forms words eloquently and could possibly make a fantastic public speaker, but that isn't his goal. Joram wants to be in a rock band as the front man, and that too would be why he is very great at spoken words.
  
• Open-Minded: For the most part, this boy is open to new things, no matter how much he says he hates mudbloods and halfbloods, he won't shove them away if they have something new to offer, or if they want to talk. After all, he loves the attention.
  
• Mostly Happy: This sixteen year old always seems to have a smile on his face, or a laugh that follows. He's rich, wealthy, open-minded and therefore he's nothing to be pissed off about. If a Slytherin insults him, normally he'll shrug it off and even laugh.
  

( WEAKNESSES ) :

• Rejection: Like I mentioned before, Joram is a very social person, he loves to be surrounded by people and rejection will kick him right in the nuts. Not like it hasn't happened before, but this could most likely be the one thing that would wipe that grin from his lips.
  
• Addicted to Sex: Sadly, he has become an addict like his father, but he finds it in different places. He has to have sex with almost every woman he sets his eyes on, but that is just an urge he has to subdue in the school. It's not like he can lay a girl out on a lab table in the middle of class.
  
• Money: An object that has always been in his life. Be it wizarding funds or muggle cash, he has it and he always wants more. Joram wishes to be able to afford anything he wants on whim, and usually he can.
  
• Cocky: The Mortelle's are very well-off and of course this fills most of Joram's ego. He believes that he can lay any girl he wants, when he wants, he can afford anything he wants in the world, and possibly never die from a drug overdose. He feels rather immortal when it comes to stupid things so he does stupid things.
  
• Arrogant: On the off-chance he can sure talk himself into trouble. Sometimes never being able to dig his way out of his own grave. It's very rare when you see his arrogance shine through the cockiness, but it mostly ever happens when he is surrounded by Slytherins.
  

( AMORTENTIA ) :

• Red Wine
  
• Hairspray
  
• Clean Sheets
  
• Sandalwood
  

( RIDDIKULUS! ) : A Rat of any size, even a baby one.
( EXPECTO PATRONUM! ) : Christmas 1967, Joram received his first own guitar from his father. It was the best thing ever, no more practicing using Vincent's right handed acoustic. No, now the boy had a left handed electric, greatest day of his life.
( DEMENTOR'S KISS ) : When his uncle found out about his addictions and he was shamed in front of all three families, not to mention the hand print that lasted for weeks.
( MIRROR OF ERISED ) : A Dark Wizard Musician, who can bang anything he desires.
( PERSONALITY ) :Joram has always been certain of himself and his decisions. He knows how he wants to gain them, and he knows exactly what it is he wants. Jorrie is most definitely not afraid to tell people what he wants from them, and in that he feels no regret. If they are not pleased with what his decision is, Jor doesn't care, even if it truly is a horrible idea.

Playing music has really opened the boy up to be social, he knows his way with words and is an extremely eloquent speaker. Charismatic in his movements, he can be the real charmer and he has interest in every single woman that walks by. If she's bad looking a bag will do, it doesn't matter to him, if you want it he'll give it. Unless you're some diseased ridden scum of the Earth.

Though Joram is a pureblood, he hates that he was placed in Hufflepuff, and he doesn't realize his own potential. Jorrie believes that the pureblooded elitists were correct in thinking so and does his best to act like a baddie, but he is just sometimes too happy for his own good.

Aside from all the good, Joram suffers from addiction, just like his father, and he doesn't know when to quit. He obsesses over sex, but if he's not on his a-game he will move on to substance abuse to knock down the cravings a few pegs. No one really knows what he does in his spare time, because he is so secretive, but what they do know is that he is usually with a different chick every single day, he even considers that he gives Rodolphus a run for his money.

Speaking of money, Joram was born into a family of riches, not in the same way most of the families gained their fortune, but instead through the wine industry. He flaunted it whole heartily as well, especially in what he wore. This kid has absolutely no remorse for his actions even though he shoulder. As for the money, he can buy almost anything he ever wished upon, and every morning he uses extremely expensive hair products to get it to sit right, no matter if they're muggle made, he won't stand for anything less.

( HAIR ) : His hair is pretty long for a boy, it reaches to about his shoulders, and it's a true brown color, sometimes he'll charm it to make it a bit lighter. For the most part he combs his bangs across his forehead and wears it down, sometimes he'll thrown on a hat, sometimes he'll just leave it.
( EYES ) : Joram's eyes are a very deep purple with black flecks in place, it is part of being a Mortelle and the color of the eyes can be seen throughout the same line of men. His eyes are very open and warm, naturally, but there are times when anger can be present.
( FACIAL STRUCTURE ) : Round cheek and a larger bottom lip. Jorrie has very pronounced eyebrows, but his smile is always prominent, even more so when he is nervous.
( BODY STRUCTURE ) : Extremely lanky, Joram stands at about 6'1" and he weighs a lot less than what a normal six footer should. The scale reads around 150 lbs, which is unhealthy no matter which way you look at it. All the better for him to fit into his size 0 girl pants.
( ATTIRE ) : Joram has a huge array of clothing, even when he is in school uniform (for the most part) he wears solid black skinny jeans which were hand-me-downs from his father. When not in uniform he wears beat up skinny jeans like the Ramones or Sex Pistols would have, his shirts are normally very skin tight, unless it's a beat up tank top with some muggle rock band on the front. He may be into the Pureblood elitism, but his fashion stems from all over and he is not ashamed to be a fan of muggle punk and rock music.

( HISTORY ) :
The Mortelle family has been around for centuries, and Joram is the latest edition to a very long line of Vicente's, he being the fifth, but we must go further back in order to understand the line he comes from:

Many years ago, as the story is told, there were three brothers who sought for immortality, Mortelle, Giovanni, and Verdugo Von Carstein. Their father was named Marius, so the script from my childhood said. They traveled across the land in search for an answer to their prayers. Mortelle who was a very handsome gentleman would swoon the people and make them eager to help, his social skills were very prominent in comparison to his two brothers. Giovanni was very intellectual and logical, he used his skills to deceive people and trick them into believing whatever he had to say. And lastly there was Verdugo, whose mind was riddled with tactical plans and war, where ever he went chaos was sure to follow in his wake, Verdugo was a very destructive soul and it reflects on his family today.

As they travelled the world in search of a cure for mortality and eternal youth, they came across many serums and plants that individuals claimed would cure them of their taint. Travelling to the far off reaches of present day Asia, there were mixtures of tinctures and teas that would prolong life, but they never worked. It wasn’t until they arrived in now day Africa where they finally received results.

There was a practitioner of magic called a witch-doctor in the midst of the jungle as they searched for this gift, but the man in the mask only shook his head with a smile and mentioned that it was a curse. Verdugo laughed in his face thinking the man was only a joke, Mortelle tried to sweet talk him into casting his magic upon them, but Giovanni was the logical and clean cut one. His mind was strong and he only shook his head. It has been said that the Giovanni family was gifted with grace because of his actions that day. Ever since I can remember Adalrick and Roderick were two of the most graceful and thoughtful beings. Never once have they acted without though. Back to the legend.

All three brothers received something different, Verdugo was gifted with the art and finesse of a warrior, but the rage inside of them only fueled the fire and pushed him further down the road of lust and yearning for more. Mortelle, with his charm only smiled as the witch-doctor cast the curse upon him, his blood was the strongest and his will was fantastic, but he was not very bright. Only with charisma and charm could he get through the troubles. These things do not seem like much, but the nightmares I have started with Mortelle. It is a foretelling of the future to come that cannot be altered. I have learned that much, if your will is not strong it could lead to insanity. Giovanni was different.

Giovanni was gifted with intelligence and he knew how to trick the witch-doctor. Once the magic had begun, Giovanni only smiled at the practitioner and he nodded, for he understood what was happening, but the words the witch-doctor spoke were altered and something was different. Giovanni was never cursed, instead he was gifted with a speed so great that Verdugo, the warrior, could not stand a chance against his older brother. Giovanni turned to thank the man for his blessing, but only to see that this used up his life force and the body lay motionless on the ground.

Mortelle has always been one for tradition, but his youngest brother turned to leave. With a turn of his head Mortelle stepped next to the body and slowly lifted him into his arms. Nobody felt any different, so Giovanni grabbed a trowel that was close at hand to be used in the small private garden this witch-doctor tended to, and he began to dig a hole large enough to lay the body to rest as Verdugo stood idly by watching his older brothers put this man to rest muttering about how the magic was fake and he felt no different.

After they buried the man in the dirt of his home, Giovanni and Mortelle covered in mud, they looked to their younger brother who has yet to learn respect and nodded agreeing that it was time to go home, as they have spent two years traveling and looking for a tonic or something that would allow them immortality. Once they arrived back in what is now present day Europe, they went to their father and told him of their adventures and went to bed.

Instantly all three of them awake in such pain that there was nothing they could do. Their father, Marius, awoke to the screams of his sons and carefully tended to them in hopes to ease their illness. Touching their faces, he noticed that they were hot with sweat and fear, but he kissed each of his sons on the head letting them know he was there. It was such a fright to all of them. Mortelle has been said to have crawled into bed next to Giovanni and clutched his hand as he watched his brother toil in a silent agony. Verdugo found himself in a corner of the two roomed house they lived in, and it stayed that way for three days as the pain tapered off nearing the end and they were finally able to rest.

Marius blamed the illness on worldly travels and was pleased to know that his children were now resting without pain, but he was surprised at how closely Mortelle and Giovanni came together in this time, as they were always at war with each other, never seeing eye to eye on certain things. Verdugo only grew angry at his brothers and father and was always the black sheep in the family.

When they awoke two moons later, the sun was high in the sky, it irritated their eyes but not their skin. Their speed was impeccable, and their strength was that of one hundred men. Their father arose before his kin and watched as they tried to work and function with their new bodies, but he grew ever so envious. With the anger of his son Verdugo, intellect of Giovanni, and charm of Mortelle he took each of their blood believing that it too would make him like his children. With a knife he slit each wrist of his boys and drank in their blood until he was sated.

Born into a family of great riches, his father is the running head of family with the estate in his name. For a long time now, the Mortelle family has served in a different way, though their magic is of great caliber, few secrets seep from their lips. One is that of their wine making, it has changed over the years, and a few members have dropped off the face of the earth. Potions, it is their trademark, especially poisons, hence the booming wine business. Most of their work is untraceable. Even so they have been considered assassin's in the muggle world.

They are a very happy people on the outside, but it is the inner workings that must be watched. Each Mortelle has been trained after they received their education through Hogwarts and if they are born without magical abilities, you would be cast off and murdered in an undisclosed location. Breeding has its down sides, since the decline of pure-blood is on the rise, only the main section of the family are allowed to court any other pure-blood, granted there are a few dirt-bloods in the main line. Their inequalities have been over looked for the better of the family name.

There have been some ties with the vampires of the world, only for business purposes, though it has been said the branches of the Mortelle family are acclimated to be changed into such creatures, and the main line is to remain untouched, little do most people know, the main line is actually very much vampiric. They possess a unique quality for the wine as well, whoever said the Mortelle's were a sadistic family, they are correct. Vampire blood is one of the main ingredients in the wine, though it is very minute in amount, it gives it a bitter sweetness.

The Italian Mafia has been after the family for sometime, and has failed in every attempt to bring it down, it s obvious why, considering that the family is chalk full of magic, and well, they slay their own family members in order to gain a high-selling product.

Vicente was born in the early summer of 1960. It was an accidental pregnancy, but the love he received from his mother was over the top. He was named after he grandfather and once he found this out he began going by his middle name, Joram. Early on into his elementary years his father, Vincent, started to become slightly distant, he was not in contact with his child, even though he was to carry on the name. Urging for that attention it was apparent that Joram was going to be a problem child, full of snide comments and ruthlessness. Many fights at home had been lost, but the one thing he strives for was to be on top like his father and the edge was starting to wear down. So he decided to send his interests else where and picked up the guitar.

He was three quarters of the way through the age of ten when the letter had arrived. Hogwarts. At that moment Vincent praised his child and thus begun the journey of a lifetime, he was to carry the family name. Knowing that his son was not a squib he was finally welcomed into the family as the next in line to take over the business and keep the ties together. Though the attitude Joram presented left Vincent highly doubtful.

During his first year at Hogwarts, Joram was sorted into the House of Hufflepuff. During his first two years he did not make many friends, in truth he avoided anyone and everyone, but he started to crack out of his shell during his third year. Becoming more or less himself he showed his true side, cocky and very forward.

Little is known about the Mortelle family, but Joram knows exactly what is going to happen, especially when he turns twenty, that is when his life is going to change dramatically. If it does happen the way he wants it to, he will be extremely influential like his father, and will have nearly unstoppable power, but in order to successful he will have to use it wisely and stay low and out of the eyes of the ministry.
