Muggleborn.

Thirty two.
♠ Gender:
Male / Wizard.
♠ Subject:
Headmaster / Magical Marine Biology
♠ Best Subject:

♠ Appearance:
To start, I will inform whoever's reading this that I suck at appearance. Woo. Here goes.
Matthew is a good looking guy. He stands at a little over six feet, about six two. However, his favourite suit just so happens to be pinstripe, which makes him look both taller and slimmer. You will usually find Matt wearing a suit, never robes. Growing up with muggles has shaped his style more towards muggle trends. He wore robes as part of his uniform when he was a student, of course, but he prefers a nice muggle suit as a teacher.
Matthew has medium brown hair and eyes. His hair is usually messy. He just pushes his hand through it and he's set. It adds a sort of rugged look to his otherwise neat look.
Terrible, I know. v_v
♠ Personality:
With one glance at Matthew, you cloud assume he was a successful business man waiting to get home to his family after work. But that's not quite it. Matthew is successful, but his suit leads you to believe he's from the muggle world. That's half true, he's a muggle born and only though he was magical when he played make-believe as a child. He never really got into the whole dress robe idea, not even after his nine years at Delusion Academy. Matt is currently without a family, and after the day ends, he stays where he is. His home is his work; his work is his home.
Matthew is fairly simple and fairly reserved; he hardly visits life outside his formal suit and tie. However, that being said, he has been known to wear a pair of jeans on the weekends. Many in the wizarding community find Matthew somewhat strange. Matt is very intelligent and a skilled wizard, he just never does everything the way a wizard should. He washes dishes by hand, he writes without bewitching a quill, and he drives a car more than he flies a broom. Few say anything because he is Headmaster and a very important, powerful part of the wizarding community, but Matt's not the kind of person to snap on you for speaking your mind. He just takes everything in stride and laughs off all the bad to make way for the good.
Matthew is very aware of everything around him. He's very observant. He's not the kind of person with OCD who counts everything down to the amount of books of each shelf, but after seeing something once or twice he can remember it well. He grew up with a mother who constantly reminded him about how the world was rough and unfair. Because of this, he's become very cautious and careful of his surroundings.
Matthew is a very sweet, thoughtful guy, and girls often fall for him. However, he tends to loose his grasp once he forgets something big like a date or a holiday. Some say he's just thoughtless, but he's really not. And yes, he does have a remembral. His problem is remember what he's forgotten. But he has a new system, he tells all the portraits in his office about the event he cannot forget about, and they remind him in the morning. Ingenious.
♠ History:
Matthew grew up in the easter part of Dundee, a city located in easter Scotland on the shoreline. He grew up in a muggle town, with muggle parents, went to muggle school, and did everything a muggle would do. But one day that changed drastically. Mr. Jamieson passed his ten year old son a partchment envelope sealed with a purple circle at the back. On the front, the only words were Matthew Michael Jamieson; 126 Perth Road; Dundee, Scotland. His parents thought it was a gag, but little Matty knew it wasn't. He told his parents to watch. First he shut the lights off, then a glass exploded and his parents decided to send him to bed.
One week later another letter came. It was sealed with the same purple wax and had the same writing. However, the letter was different. It told them about a wizard neighborhood in Loch Ness along lake shore. So they decided to pay a visit, and weren't disappointed. Matthew was a wizard alright. It was the last thing anyone would ever expect, but it most certainly happened.
Throughout his school years, Matthew exceeded expectations for most muggleborns. He enjoyed every class and school was his favorite thing ever. However, liking something doesn't mean you're great at it. In his third year, Matthew received his first failing grade in his entire schooling career. Care of Magical Creatures was interesting, but animals never liked Matt. Not even his own pet cat Marmalade. Well, she likes when he feeds him.
Anyways, after his third year, he never took Care of Magical Creatures again. He took more academic classes like Transfiguration, Charms, etc. But he always was more into hands on classes like Magical Marine Biology and Defense Against The Dark Arts. And that's how he came to be a professor. The Headmaster of the school in Matthew's early teaching years took a shine to him, and upon his death, Matthew was to take his place. Some teacher's weren't too impressed that a muggleborn with three years teaching experience could beat out a pureblood with decades of service given to the school. But it is what it is. You only get what you give away, and Matt gave love.
