On a rainy evening at the end of March, Seth and Vanessa Paton brought a son, who was the spitting image of his father, into the wizarding world. They named him Franklin "Frankie" Maxwell, and he was the first child that the couple had together. Even though he had an older half-sister, Frankie definitely did whatever he could to hog the spotlight at all times -- even more so when Grace was staying with them and not her actual father. He was also rather spoiled throughout his youth due to his mother's transition from shopkeeper to St. Mungo's healer and his father's surprisingly fast climb up the corporate ladder at Sleekeazy Incorporated.
Frankie soon learned, however, that getting what he wanted whenever he wanted was not always plausible. With the addition of his sister Harriet, receiving private tutelage with Professor Barnabas Burke, and interacting with other children his age at St. Woboldo's Primary School, the young boy discovered that the entire world did not revolve around him. Nonetheless, that never stopped him from trying to achieve such a thing with clever manipulation and, if all else failed, numerous temper tantrums. His behaviour did gradually improve as he grew older, though his great stubbornness, occasional outbursts, and a certain disregard for rules prevailed.
Upon receiving his Hogwarts letter, Frankie knew that Slytherin House, even though his parents were both former Hufflepuffs, was his destination. He, in fact, had bought everything green and silver under the belief that the Sorting Hat couldn't possibly misplace him like it did his father all those years ago. Lo and behold, after being a near Hatstall of four minutes, the Hat declared him a Gryffindor after determining that Slytherin was not a perfect fit for this male Paton either. Naturally, this infuriated him and his father. In spite of their efforts to bribe Headmistress Truebridge into placing Frankie in his "proper" House, the Hat's decision was final.
Since then Frankie accepted the fact that he is indeed a Gryffindor. Even though he still questions the Hat's judgement, a number of his House's traits have become apparent to him over the years. Overly daring and full of nerve, he ended up serving a handful of detentions. But this pattern changed during his fourth year when he, alongside Hadleigh Lynch, started the process of learning how to become Animagi. This privilege gave him the initiative to improve his grades and behaviour to the best of his ability. Thus far it has led him to gaining a girlfriend, becoming a prefect like his father and mother, and getting himself on the path to becoming an Auror.
OOC: Hello, hello, hello! My name is Zoe, and this is my second term as Gryffindor Prefect. Back in the day I was a member of Hufflepuff House, where I had the privilege of playing my current Ministry character, Frankie's father (who was a prefect back in his day!), and a member from the Diggle clan. After many years of being a loyal badger, I decided to switch things up by becoming a Ravenclaw. But it did not take me too long to transition from wise eagle to brave lion. Since then I spent a couple terms playing another Diggle before I started Frankie as a first year, and here we are today. /historylesson
I love RPing and would be honoured if our characters interacted with each other at some point this term. If you ever want your character and Frankie to bump into each other or just want to chat in general, feel free to shoot me a PM or VM! ^__^
