Special Abilities: not really
Appearance: Shadin is fairly tall, of a muscular build, though not thin. He has very wide shoulders and a broad chest about 46 inches around. He has long legs relative to his torso in addition to long thick arms. His skin is pale, though not overly so, less like a person who has never seen the sun, and more like one who loves the night. He wears black suits almost exclusively because the accent his frame to the greatest advantage. Shadin keeps himself fairly close shaved. he constantly look sleep deprived and has large bags under his eyes. He has an almost constant scowl on his face hooding his eyes and making it such that the only way to tell what his eye color is is by him telling you. He wears his hair short and has sideburns that almost reach to his jawline.
Personality: Shadin is a quiet person. He was sorted into gryffindor, however people, himself included never understood why. It is not an issue of being brave, more that he seemed to not fit in any house. He was quiet, a little sullen, and while he seemed to get good grades, he never showed any true interest in his classes. He never had any friends to be loyal to, and never had great plans and schemes for his future after graduation. All in all he was sullen, curt, and a loner. It would seem that the sorting hat saw something that nobody else did. Shadin is quiet and respectful, generally content to melt into the crowd. He freely gives respect, but also demands it. With those who do not show the proper deference to him he is short tempered and often violent, prone to lashing out without warning.

Character history: Shadin's history is somewhat cloudy. By his name it is clear that he is a direct descendant of the Ukranian noble family Khal. His father, Kartok Alexi Khal, died before Shadin had become old enough to attend school. It is said that Kartok loved Shadin dearly, and doted on him constantly. Having no need or use for a job Kartok devoted himself to Shadin. Kartok was killed by deranged rival in front of Shadin. Records of this attack indicate that his father's murderer also died in their meeting, though the mode of his death, litterally dismembered, indicates that it was not done by any known spell. Shadin's mother Gloria Prewett then took Shadin from his family's ancestral home in the Ukraine and raised him in England where she had grown up.
Upon returning to her home of England, Gloria Prewett, she had refused to take the Khal name, used some of Kartok's vast resources to purchase a home. She was not of pure blood, but with enough money it is possible to purchase status, which she did. Her new home was located in a well known wizarding community great and noble families. They were out and about in a great society making favoriable alliances with all the families that she could get ther spiders hands on. For whatever reason she decided to settle most powerfully on the Gaelians. Perhaps because of their wealth, or simply because their daughter Helena was in the same age range as her son Shadin, but she and Mrs. Gaelian decided to make a marriage pact for their children.
From this point forward Shadin and Helena were constantly in each other's company. It was not a good arrangement. Their personalities were conflicting, leaving no possibility for any agreement between the two.
Madame Prewett flowed throughout society prancing her son about, using his name and money to make high minded connections. People loved her as she leeched into their lives exacting favors and payments from them all the time keeping herself under the radar of those who would seek to destroy her. This must have been difficult considering Shadin's tendancy to lash out with magic violently and without control.
Gloria Prewett was clearly ill when Shadin began to attend school, however Shadin never showed any interest in visiting her. This is thought to be because of the "disposal" of a second child from Kartok, Ivan, however the existence of this brother has never been confirmed.
During Shadin's fifth year at Hogwarts Gloria Prewett, his only known family member passed away. Shadin did not attend the funeral. It is reported that that when he received the owl telling of his mother's death he had no reaction and even continued attending classes that same day.
Shadin being the only known Khal inherited his family's entire fortune, including their castle and lands in the Ukraine, where he remained for the the rest of his summer's while in attending school.
After Shadin's seventh year at Hogwarts he graduated without honors, family, or friends. Despite having attained good grades while in school he made no effort to gain a job in the ministry of either country, or any job at all for that matter. The fact is that He didn't truly need one. His family though Kartok was exceptionally rich and so he had no need for money and began simply traveling the world on his own.
Role play Sample: "You've been out cold for two and a half days." Two days? Well at least he couldn't have missed too much. Shadin looked back toward the little girl who by now looked about ready to climb up in the bed with him. At least he couldn't have mist that much. Even aided with magic that couldn't happen. Yet her features were so like Helena's. Shadin actually shook his head dismissing the thought. If Helena had a child he would have known. It was something too big to be covered. He looked back toward her, despite her proximity to him, she seemed more focused on Helena anyway. At best she was a small relative. More likely the similarity was sheer coincidence. "We thought you might die." "Well then you were more optimistic than I was. I was fairly certain I was dead." He looked around the room once more. He was certain he had never seen it before. It certainly wasn't the Gaelian household. The little girl would have never been allowed into the house. Not to mention that provided he hadn't been moved, he was still in the same place that Mickey had taken him. It seemed unlikely that Mickey would be on good enough terms with the Gaelians to go there on a whim. There was a small window a little ways down the wall. He craned his neck to see, but was woefully unsuccessful. "Helena, where are we? I've never seen this place before." Despite feeling weak Shadin moved to stand, but thought better of it at the last second. "And where are my blasted pants? I would very much like to get dressed, and perhaps bathed." Despite being a small issue this particularly bothered him. He felt captive in the bed. He had no wand and no pants. He couldn't even go to look for his wand. "Furthermore where is my wand?"

Accepted [/u][/center][/size] Your personality and Appearance fall short by about four words, but I'm not going to be that picky, so it looks good.
Other than that, it looks fine.
