History:Bridgette was a nurse from Louisiana, and her family consisted of scholars and physicians. Matthew was a professor at Harvard, their son had inherited their intellect as well as his mother's need for everything to be squeaky clean. Bridgette had come to Boston as an intern to a hospital. She wanted to just see the world outside of the South. To her surprise she literally bumped into a pupil of Biology just outside of Harvard, a kind man who offered to take her to coffee after helping her up. His name was Matthew, and he was studying in the science of life. He was a fairly wealthy gentleman. That fateful day blossomed into a serious relationship, and soon marriage. After years and years of trying, they finally conceived a child, and named him Gabriel, after the archangel. His father had moved up from student to professor at this time, and all was well with them. Then Matthew packed up his family and left for England after Matthew was extended a new job offer at Oxford. Once at the great university Mr. Oaks had begun his job as the department head of Biology. While at home Gabriel was being taught in etiquette by his mother. She was determined to raise a gentleman, and not a barbaric, disrespectful boy. Gabriel had already began his studies in the classes that every child was supposed to take. He was displaying a gift of learning, and the sheer desire to learn. As he grew there was some incidences that had his parents baffled, like he had gotten angry with a classmate and had set their desk on fire, unintentionally, but it had happened. Gabriel had since become a quieter boy, and learned to control his temper, as when he did lose his temper things exploded, or were shattered, frankly it scared him. Once these outbursts landed him outside in the rain for several hours until his mother came to get him. Later when Gabriel turned 11 years old he received an odd letter. It was an acceptance letter to Hogwarts. His parents while taken by surprise, embraced Gabriel's new found ability and their answers to their son's odd behavior those years before. Matthew found his son's power to be the coolest thing he'd ever seen. They were both so very proud of their son. Young Gabriel went to Hogwarts after being guided around Diagon Alley by a kind soul who could have been seen as a blood traitor, along with his parents, who helped him buy his school supplies. He purchased his first wand, it was made of cedar, 14 inches long and had the heartstring from a Swedish Short-snout dragon in the core. Olivander had said something about that wand but Gabriel never really paid attention to that. He just thought it was cool to actually have such a thing as a wand. On the Hogwarts Express he met a halfblooded wizard boy named Lance Seymour. When Gabriel had the Sorting Hat placed upon his head, the hat had stalled for a whole 10 minutes on whether he should go into the house of Gryffindor, or the house of Ravenclaw. In the end the Hat had placed him in Ravenclaw because of his sheer desire to learn, and his own lineage of teachers, and academic people. Through Hogwarts Gabriel studied hard, receiving top notch marks on his work, excelling in Transfiguration, Ancient Runes, Defense Against the Dark Arts, and Charms while not doing so hot in Herbology, and Potions. He made friends with a good number of other students, most from his own house, but others in the other houses and of many different backgrounds. In the few years following his graduation from Hogwarts out of sheer boredom, he found out how to become an animagus. He had received some instruction on via owl from his Transfiguration professor at Hogwarts, along with studying this with Richard Beaumont, friend of Gabriel's that had a habit of visiting him often. This was likely one of the most difficult things he'd attempted to do. He learned why this magic was so dangerous when he'd gotten literally burned from one of his evenings trying to work on achieving this goal. He had later successfully transformed into a 17hh black friesian horse the form reflected his shining knight personality, and his need to be useful. In this form he kept his icy blue eyes, and the coat was the color of his hair. He was ecstatic when he had finally transformed, but when he realized he turned into a horse he wasn't too thrilled anymore. Despite all that, he mastered this ability by the age of 25. During his summer breaks while at Hogwarts he continued muggle studies at the request of his parents. They wanted him to be able to live on both worlds, just in case. As such he got himself a GED and took all the standardized tests that he needed to, to get into a university of his choice. He was fortunate enough to have gotten accepted to Harvard, along with a few other universities. He'd chosen Harvard above all the others thanks to some of the strings that Matthew had pulled to get him in. So he left the UK to go back to the States for school, just after he left his parents were involved in a tragic yet pedestrian car accident that killed the couple. While there he majored in medicine taking on the legacy of his mother. He thus earned his MD. While he was in med school he met up again a lovely young woman named Briar. She was a pureblood witch, but on holiday in America, she had peculiar rose brown hair and bright gray eyes. He had known her since his first day at Hogwarts. They were already very close friends, before he was finally persuaded into courting her. Soon Gabriel asked for Briar's hand in marriage only to end up being reprimanded by the pureblood elitists that were Briar's parents. The feud here ended in Gabriel taking Briar's hand. The result of that was Briar's family had ostracized her for marrying a muggleborn wizard. Once he finished his education he returned to Britain with Briar. With the what money Gabriel had left from his parent's inheritance he bought a home in Hogsmeade. It was a quaint, good sized Tudor style home, that they had every intention of living in for the rest of their lives. He founded a job as the Ancient Runes professor, at Hogwarts. |
