Overall Personality: James is bold, arrogant and loves to see how far he can push it. Whether it's quidditch or relationships. He devotes himself entirely. In quidditch he strives to be the best chaser ever. Competitive, he likes to win, and will use any and all means to obtain that goal. He poured himself in becoming an animagus. Because he wanted to be with his friend, Remus, when he transformed into a werewolf. A brilliant student and an ingenious prankster he, Sirius, Remus and Peter created the Marauder's map during their last two years at school. They knew more about how to get in and out of the school than probably Dumbledore himself.
A hopeless romantic he fell head over heels for Lily Evans. She however considered him conceited and was disgusted by his trigger happy attitude towards jinxing people. He finally persuaded Lily to date him more than likely by annoying her into submission. Then he finally won her over, they became a couple in their seventh year.
Extremely loyal he has his mates backs. He would do anything for them, especially Sirius whom he considers his brother. They stick together, you hardly ever saw them apart. The four have a strong relationship, no one could ever break them apart, or so he believes. He would die for any of them.
A despiser of the Dark Arts he disliked most Slytherins. He would annoy them and hex them because of their pureblood lunacy. In particular he hated Severus Snape. Bullying him from the moment the met.
Appearance: James is tall and thin, the father of Harry Potter he is nearly identical to him except that he has hazel eyes. Athletic build, with a lot of upper body strength. He likes to fly and play Quidditch so he stays in shape. He could eat a lot and never gain an ounce. His eyes are hazel and somewhat hidden behind the glasses that he wore. His eyes light up with laughter especially when teasing Lily. He has a sexy little pout (ask Dorcas) that he uses to get his way with Lily.
His black hair is trimmed around his ears and comes down to his collar in the back. It never lays neatly. Quite untidy it sticks up in the back. He has a habit of deliberately running his hand through his hair to give it that messed up windswept look. When he' not wearing his robes he dresses like any other average student in a button down shirt or a pull over with a pair of denim jeans.
Celebrity Being Used:Sebastian Stan
History: Born March 27, 1960, James' parents had him late in life. Being an only child, his wealthy pure blood parents pampered him. Gave him anything and everything he wanted or needed. He is a direct decedent of Ignotus Peverell the original owner of the Invisibility Cloak. A cloak that has come in very handy at Hogwarts. Evading teachers, sneaking out after curfew, going to Hogsmeade and generally using it on seek and hex Snivellus missions. He is an excellent quidditch player, the Gryffindor's star chaser.
James is very smart, practically a genus. He never appears to study, but makes straight O's. Exceptional in transfiguration. A Prefect in his sixth year. His seventh he became Head Boy. (Even though he had a reputation for being a troublemaker and a rule breaker.) Much to everyone's amazement including Lily's.
Popular and a show off he's best friends with Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew, known for their mischief and dubbed the 'Marauders'. When they learned of Remus' furry condition they set out to become Animagi so they could join him. In their fifth year they succeeded. James' animagus was a stag, hence the nickname prongs. James is closer to Sirius than the other Marauders. Sirius having stayed with him during the holidays until he finally ran away from the Blacks and came to live with the Potters. The were close, hardly seen apart, inseparable. To James, Sirius was the brother he never had.
James' bitter enemy is Severus Snape. They didn't like each other from the off. From the moment they met, James would mock him and hex him every chance he got. Lily and Severus were friends, even though he was sorted Slytherin. But he got drawn deeper and deeper into the Dark Arts. By the end of his fifth year James was taken with Lily, though she had nothing to do with him until the start of their seventh year, when Lily finally agreed to go out with James. This made Severus and James even more bitter rivals as secretly Severus loved Lily. Of course it didn't help matters any when Snape call Lily a Mudblood. Nor did it help that James saved his life when Sirius played a joke on Snape sending him towards Remus in his werewolf form. Resulting in Snape owing James a life debt.
Role Play Sample: ((scene - Sirius and James in the common room discussing James' upcoming wedding on June 30, 1978. Sirius wants to throw James a 'Stag' party, getting drunk in Hogsmeade then bar hopping in muggle London. Sirius being best man is to give the speech for the wedding. James is afraid that they will get too drunk and miss the wedding or upset Lily. The discussion turns to Lily. James tells Sirius that he was the reason that Sirius' pranking went unnoticed because he kept Lily busy.))
Sirius: A wide grin spread across his face as his mate revealed his role in their pranks. “Absolute rubbish. A precaution maybe, you have your uses, but rest assured had you not been there ‘distracting her’ she would have been none the wiser anyway.” Sirius folded his arms, “I know your game Prongs this is all some petty distraction to hinder my efforts at plotting your doom. Well I’m sorry mate you can carry on with these put downs if you must but it won’t make me any less brilliant, nor will prevent me from fulfilling my duties as best man,” Sirius put deliberate emphasis on best and smirked, relaxing back again. “Now lets just admit my perfection, eat your precious cookies and think of even more ways we can make your stag night brilliant enough to be memorable despite the alcohol.
James: "Rubbish, you say?" He chuckled as he looked up at the ceiling shaking his head, knowing all along that he would never win any kind of debate with Pads. As Pads knew he could never win with James. This discussion is just like many other pointless one's they've had in the past. "You KNOW Pads that if I didn't *cough* distract her that she'd be all over you like a doxy in the draperies. You would've had more detentions this past year than you did. Good thing, I ... " he pointed to himself pleasingly as he looked over at Sirius. ".... as 'Head Boy' was able to lay aside my goals and aspirations, to sacrifice myself for the greater good of Marauderdom." Marauderdom? How he managed to keep a straight face while spinning that, he had no idea.
"But that sacrifice wasn't enough ... It seems I'm doomed to your plotting, forever to sacrifice myself so you can be top dog. Well..." he grinned wide and stood up and bowed slightly to Sirius. "I concede ... that my flawless perfection is a challenge that even the 'best man' could never hope to achieve, therefore I step aside so others can shine ... though not as brilliant as me." He bowed deep swinging one arm across his abdomen and the other out to his side. He turned, picking up the sack of cookies, he reached in and took one, tossing the sack onto Sirius. It was a load of crap that he spun, but it was fun. He laughed and looked over at Sirius.
Chewing slowly he savored the taste. "You know Pads perhaps we should do a trial run ... you know scope out the bars. See which ones are the best. We wouldn't want to waste precious time in the wrong type of muggle bar. I don't fancy crawling into a bar full of a bunch of sorry sods crying into their beers." His brow furrowed. "We're not going to literally crawl are we? We could take brooms and fly from one to another." He suggested though staying on a broom while drunk could be problematic. Nevertheless getting on the broom.
