Full Character Name: Franco Koei Masuoka
Character Gender: Male
Character Age: 18
Occupation Requesting: shopkeeper-owner of “The cross-eyed Dragon” ice cream, coffee and sandwich shop.
Country of Citizenship: Japanese descendant, Peruvian of birth. Actually moved to Hogsmeade.
Physical Character Description: Franco is of average height, 180 cm or 5 feet 11 inches tall and left handed. He is skinny but muscular as he used to go to long trips into the jungle when he lived in Peru. He does a lot of hiking and climbing so he walks with a strong stride.
Being of Japanese descendant, his natural color of eyes are brown and his hair is black, however being a metamorphus he changes them at will. He usually prefers blue hair and grey eyes.
He comes from a very hot place so he is not used to long periods of cold weather. He finds Hogsmeade to be too cold for his taste, so he usually wears a little more clothes than the standard for any other people in Hogsmeade, at least for now. However still he tries to dress casually, with jeans and sneakers, trying to be as comfortable as possible.
Personality Character Description: Franco has been always nice and easy going though very reserved about his family or his past. He does not trust people at first but still he will try to be friendly and casual to anyone.
Being still a young man he can go along with younger wizards very well though, having to take care of his kid on his own he is very hard working and tries to be a responsible father. Though time to time a little of carefree fun does not hurt.
Franco is not a person that can hide his emotion that well. Whether he is angry, sad or happy, it will show somehow no matter how much he will try to hide it. Thought sometimes when he is really busy he could look as if he is angry but really he is not.
History: Franco was born and raised in Peru, though his family are all from Japan. His parents were very well known magizoologists and owners of a considerable fortune. Their careers took them searching for species in extintion or presumible not in existantce and used to trip in the deep of the jungle in Peru to find new species and hide them properly from Muggles. They got mysteriously murdered when Franco was 12, and the kid was sent to Hogwarts for his own protection, or at least that is what his uncle claimed. Being still too young to take care of his possesions, his uncle and only relative took care of the business.
Franco became a Ravenclaw and studied in Hogwarts, against his will at first, for almost three years, coming back to home just at the end of each term. His days at his country were always troublesome as it seems troubles liked to find him in there. Then at the age of 14 he was dragged back to his country without any explanation.
Being unable to eliminate Franco due to an old magical clause at his parents´will, his uncle modified his memory at his convenience and hid him away from any friend he could have had. Franco finished his studies at home and when he came of age he gave his uncle all the power to take care of the family fortune, working for him as well. Franco married his fiance, an arranged marriage set when he was 4 years old, as it was tradition in his family, and had a son.
A year later his uncle was arrested for misappropriating the funds, and was found to be directly linked with the DEVA. The government confiscated all the goods. Franco's uncle was found guilty of the Masuokas' murders and for conspiration to steal information. Franco was found not guilty of any of the charges for lack of proof. Neverthless he was exiled and his name was marked. He then set his wife free to go and leave him. There were never love between them so everything went with no further complication,and the child stayed with him at her request. She did not want anything to do with the Masuoka family
With the money he had on his personal account he thought to start over again and finding an old wizard magazine about the Village of Hogsmeade, he decided to move there with his kid and his house elf. For some reason he does not know, that place and Hogwarts give him a good feeling.
Pros and Cons:
Pros:
Franco is a hard worker and he wants to be a good father.
He always tries to do the right thing, even when that might perjudice him.
Franco is expert in wandless magic as in Peru they do not use wands. Wandless is the usual there, and though he learned to use wand at Hogwarts, he does not remember it as his memory was modified.
Also he speaks spanish and just a little bit of japanese though not enough to hold a conversation.
Cons:
Franco has a nasty temper when you really get his nerves. He is a very passive person most of the time, but if you happen to be the drop that spilled the glass, you better start running.
He does not trust in people straight away and it is hard to get his trust really, however he won´t show his true feeling of mistrust around people, but will try to put on a smile to get through it.
Even when he tries to do things right for him and his child, he is still young and some times his judges and decitions might not be the best for them.
Franco is allergic at Muggle artificial ingredients like the ones found in muggle candies and cleaning agents. The contact with any of those would cause his skin turns all red, rush and shine like a lamp.
Credentials:
He finished his studies and took the E.L.M.O., the NEWT in Peru.

Writing/Role Playing Example:
The sun’s light woke him up to find himself in the same dark room, back to reality. It took him some seconds to remember that this was not a nightmare but it was reality, and sighed. In times like this he wished he did not have to wake up.
The sound of a moan in the next room was what really put his thoughts on the right places, and as he raised up from his bed, his previous depression stayed lied on the pillow. There were more important things than cry over spilled potion.
Franco hurried to the next room and took the little one on his arms, trying to calm him down while his eyes gave a last look around, checking he had packed everything, that all was ready. He gave a look at the bathroom, inside the closet, inside any drawer, still patting softly his kid´s back.
“What is it?” he said smiling at the baby “Are you scare? Aww.. don´t be!” he said rocking hims softly then took the sack on his shoulder and enchanted some trunks to move along with him.
“We are going to a trip! Fun, isn´t it?” he said faking excitement “Yay! We are going now! We are going now! Woahh good!” he still called trying to cheers up Paquito while opened the door.
“Look at that!” he said signaling the sun “ohh looks pretty, woahh big!” he said almost laughing looking at him and up at the sky in turns, ignoring the silluettes across the building, watching his every move, making sure he was leaving.
