Backstory
"A world that, however heightened and magical, in some ways echoes our own across time."
-David Yates on the Wizarding World
Hi there! I'm Merlin.
I was born in America, though my parents wanted me to attend Hogwarts. For some reason, my parents kept knowledge of the Wizarding World from me until a few months before I went to Hogwarts. When I got there, I was sorted into Ravenclaw. My life's dream is to be an Author, Wandmaker, or Magizoologist, because I love learning, books, wand making, and animals.
I am also a vegetarian!
I am a Keeper. A Keeper is someone who is dedicated to restoring Hogwarts Is Here to what it was: a safe, fun, friendly place for Potterheads to interact. A Keeper also works to keep the spark of the Wizarding World alive.

History
I am a distant descendant of Rowena Ravenclaw thyrough my Mother's side, of which I am very proud. I am the son of Keith Trelawney and Indigo Aoth. Through my father, Keith Trelawney, I am distantly, distantly related to Sybill Trelawney. And no, I do not have any Seer abilities. My mother, Indigo Aoth, is a (not direct) descendant of Rowena Ravenclaw.
While at Hogwarts I love to ride on a winged horse, skimming over the lake and forest. I also love to explore the mountains and hills near Hogwarts.
I believe that everyone should be free to live the life they wish and to be who they want to be.
