Name: Maximilian Rex
Age: 23
Blood: Muggle Born
Job Title: Defence Against the Dark Arts Professor
Wand: Willow, 13 Inches, Dragon Heartstring
Personality: Outgoing, hardworking and dedicated to students education. Charming qualities with excellent manners and exceptional conduct. Adaptable to any and all social categories. Demonstrates a wide vocabulary and gives the impression of a highly intellectual young man. Enthusiasm which reaches all students. A kind hearted wizard, always the optimist. Captivating, contemplative and carefree but opinionative and decisive when the situation calls for it. A popular member of staff to fellow professors and students alike; almost inevitable for all to like and quite impossible to not admire and respect.
Appearance:6' 3" tall, slim toned athletic body, white, light sun tan, brown colored short messy styled hair, incredibly handsome, stunning light blue eyes, some facial stubble, strong chiseled jaw. Usual dress-code whilst at Hogwarts, is a black nehru suit with a collarless shirt the color of old parchment underneath. This muggle inspired apparel greatly stands out when in the company of other professors who are for the most part dressed in robes.
History: Being muggle born made early wizarding life much harder to believe but all the more inspiring. It incentivized a fierce desire to learn as much as possible about magic (ancient and new) and become the best there could be. During the years studying at Hogwarts, exceptional skills were noticed by all professors.

Exceeds Expectations in Astronomy, History of Magic and Study of Ancient Runes and Acceptable in Arithmancy and Divination.

His education was followed by an almost immediate acceptance into The Ministry of Magic as an auror. By 20, pure excellence in the auror position acquired the promotion to Head of The Auror Office. This occupation was lived out for a year and three days before being sent to St Mungo's after a dark wizard ambush whilst visiting the parents they had prior murdered. After 2 months recovery under healers' supervision, a decision to travel the wizarding world was made; a choice which is usually made straight after leaving Hogwarts. Returning home almost a year later with a much lighter hearted attitude than the more seriously driven version that left and a strong passion to teach.
Animagus: Falcon
Role Playing Sample:The class room was buzzing with anticipation. Noises of excitement and nervousness were bubbling here and there. Some of the students in the class had known each other for a few days now and so were starting to form small friendship groups. Evidence of this was dotted around the desks of the room; house colours all clumped snugly together. Though getting used to general feel of Hogwarts, these first years were now awaiting their very first Defence Against the Dark Arts lesson.
No sign of It's Professor left a feeling of unfulfilled expectations about this subject so far but watching the falcon fly from rafter to rafter was at least a little entertaining. The grandfather clock at the back of the class stroke 9 AM and its chimes began to ring. On it's ninth ring, the falcon in the rafters screeched proudly and dived head first to the centre of the classroom floor. Gasps ensued and a couple of girls screamed as they realised it was not prepared to pull back up into flight. Just before the crash landing, a noise like a gentle breeze scuffling through tree leaves was heard and the falcon transformed in a blur. All of a sudden, a devilishly handsome man was positioned on the floor in the centre aisle between desks. Exactly where the bird should have collided with the ancient wood floor. Knelt on one knee and face down, the man elegantly rose with a sense of purpose, setting off into a quick stride to the front of the class.
"Good morning everyone, welcome to Defence Against the Dark Arts. I'm Professor Rex and I hope with the utmost sincerity that I get to know you all very well. This happens to be my first year also, so let's see if we can't get through together shall we.", a warm smile shone across the Professor's face as he concluded his introduction. So strange it seemed to the first years that that which had alarmed them so much 30 seconds ago, gave off such an embracing, kind aura.
