"You don't know what I'm capable of, you don't know what I've done!"

GENERAL APPEARANCE: Jasper Longbottom looks more like Frank than Alice - he doesn't have his mother's warm brown eyes, full face, or happy demeanor. He is all angles and contours, with high cheekbones, peircing blue eyes, and a tall slim build. He also inherited his father's dark brown hair that almost looks black in some lights and looks black when it is wet, as well.

His skin which was always pale, is more translucent than ever thanks to his condition. A condition which he doesn't like telling people about. Because he sees how judgmental and hateful people are. The less people that know, the better. Not to mention it's embarrassing enough to have people know that he's allergic to the sun. He just tells people that he's fair skinned.

Jasper has always looked older than he was. Right now, it's nice, but he assumes that it will be a real pain when he's older. He doesn't want to look older than Neville does when he's an old man, after all.

He usually looks irritable, but looks can be deceiving. Jasper is a really kind guy. However, he is prone to fits of thoughtfulness which usually renders him with a scowl, but that usually isn't the fault of anyone around him. Rather it's the fault of his new condition - which he's still getting used to.

As far as clothing goes when he's not in Hogwarts, he likes to dress up in suits and slacks. He doesn't really like throwing on sweat pants or sweat shirts ever. Lounging clothing simply seems to hang, and he doesn't like that. Given the fact that he's scrawny and lanky, it just gives the appearance that he's anorexic or something and that's really not appealing to himself or to anyone else whom sees him, he assumes.
MOST LIKED FEATURE: hair and eyes
MOST HATED FEATURE: his teeth (they're somewhat pointy for whatever reason), his translucent skin, his lips (too thin in his humble opinion)
HERITAGE: English
ETHNICITY: Caucasian

"The mind is not a book, to be opened at will and examined at leisure."

GENERAL PERSONALITY: Like all individuals, Jasper is a complex personality. He isn't always one way or another. However, there are a few things that remain the same no matter what mood he is in: he is a vampire, he hates death eaters and their supporters, and he is rather secretive. He is a good listener, but he uses this as a good cover to excuse not talking about himself. He wasn't always like this, but after his run-in with Antonio, he's become a quieter individual than he once was.

lighter personality

Jasper like most people, has a lighter side of his personality. This is the personality that most people see, and is more dominant. He does have an ugly persona, too, but we'll save that for later.

Jasper is generally a confident and friendly young man. Blood status has and never will matter to him, nor has blood for that matter. (Not that he could ever tell them this: but technically all their blood tastes the same, so there's really no sense in calling someone a filthy half-blood.) He is bubbly, charming, and can be quite funny. He has a good, healthy sense of humor and he wouldn't mind collaborating with the 'new' Marauders or the Weasley twins to pull off pranks. Usually, he works solo, but every once in a while he likes to help pull pranks on people. Nothing that would seriously maim or hurt someone. Just something to get a good chuckle from.

Jasper is very loyal. He is fierce to those whom mock Neville, his parents, or his friends. He is very protective of his friends. Especially those whom happen to be girls. It's not that he doesn't think that he can defend themselves, but he rather be safe than sorry. He's not willing to let them get hurt.

Jasper is kind, caring, and compassionate. He does care about everyone and everything that is important to him. He wants to know about all of your problems big or small so that he could help you. He is a great listener, but this is so he doesn't have to talk about himself, mostly. While he would love to help you with everything - he's rather independent and secretive, and would rather not have aid in his endeavors. He just doesn't want to let someone in too close and have them be hurt on his account.

There's nothing wrong with a healthy competiton, at least, in Jasper's eyes. He likes competing in Quidditch and anything else, really. He likes all sports wizarding and muggle alike, and likes beating people. He, of course, doesn't always win - but he likes it when he does, who doesn't?

Loving. Jasper is very loving, but he doesn't always show this side of him. He doesn't want anyone to think that he's weak or stupid. Some people view love as stupidity, and he's afraid to love. He thinks he doesn't deserve it, and he would rather live always alone than to hurt someone. Though, he doesn't want to die alone he isn't selfish enough to drag someone into his pain with him. He is a rather selfless individual and if he has to be alone for the rest of time to prevent himself from harming someone else, then he will be.

the ugly personality

There are times when Jasper falls into deep melancholy. In this state of mind he becomes very moody and snappish. He doesn't want people to bother him, and yet he doesn't want to be alone. Yet he knows he can't have it both ways, so when he is in this state of mind he tries to push people away which is probably for the best.

When in this state he is dark and brooding, and even suicidal at times. He has never gone through with it and would never try, but the thought of suicide has crossed his mind once or twice. He doesn't want to be a coward, but he doesn't want to hurt the ones whom he loves, either. However, he also views this as a selfish point of view, so he has a tendency to hate himself when he falls into these spells.

He is usually mild-tempered, yet when provoked, his rage is quite scary. He becomes as mean as the beloved Potions Professor if not more so. He is reckless, dangerous, sarcastic, and mean-spirited. He will say something simply to make you cry because once he's angry, it seems to take him a long time to calm down unless you're one of those select few like Neville or Alice who can calm him down simply by telling him to relax. He hates hurting people, even in a rage, and he will feel bad about it later. Unless, of course, in his own mind they deserved it.

"I enjoyed the meetings, too. It was like having friends."

GENERAL HISTORY: Jasper Longbottom was a surprise baby. One that Frank and Alice hadn't counted on having. They already had Neville, after all, and he was good enough for them. They loved their son. However, after her third missed period, Alice suspected something was up. She found out that she was expecting again. Frank and Neville were thrilled. Although, Neville insisted he wanted a baby brother and not a baby sister. Alice laughed and said that they'd see.

Jasper Longbottom was born one torturously hot October evening, after keeping his mother in labor for a painstaking forty eight hours. Alice was relieved that he was born at all, after all that nonsence. Neville and Frank finally got to meet the second son in the Longbottom, a boy they named Jasper.
He was found to be allergic to the sun as a baby, so as a youth he always had to put lots of lotion on. It was really rather annoying, but he would rather that than break out in hives.

Jasper's first sign of magic was at age four and it was making a pot levitate and smash on top of Neville's head because Neville took the last cookie. Jasper had always been fond of his mother's cookies, and Neville ought to have known better in the youngster's mind. Thankfully, however, Neville wasn't too badly injured. Just a few superficial cuts to his forehead and cheek which Alice quickly healed. Due to the fact that it was his first sign of magic, he wasn't punished, but Frank and Alice made sure that Jasper understood that now they knew he had magic it wasn't acceptable to do that to people no matter what the reason. Jasper said that he understood.

At age six, he levitated a cat over a muggle's head to prevent it from being hit by a bus. It was then that Alice and Frank had to explain the secrecy of magic statute to Jasper. He couldn't do magic in front of muggles because they didn't understand it and weren't allowed to use it in their world. They simply couldn't see magic even if it were staring them in the face. Jasper wondered how they could choose to be so blind. He didn't resent them for it, he just found it odd.

When he was ten he was accepted into Hogwarts, owing to the fact that his birthday was in October and he would turn eleven before the majority of the term was finished. Dumbledore gave the Longbottom's the option of waiting until Jasper was eleven to go to Hogwarts (which Alice would have preferred), but Jasper insisted that he wasn't a baby and he was ready to go. He wanted to go to school with his older brother Neville whom he missed terribly when he was off at school. So Frank insisted to his wife that it would probably be best to send him off. Alice cried about it for a few days, but tearfully agreed. Jasper was pleased.

Upon arriving at Hogwarts he was sorted into Gryffindor, and led the normal Hogwarts life. Well, what's normal for Hogwarts standards, anyway. Nothing much of note came to pass in his life, and he's trying to make sense of his world. It's becoming a bit harder what with the rumors that Voldemort's returned because no one really knows what he's capable of, yet Jasper is no coward. He will fight for what is right no matter the cost because there are some things worth dying for.
