Some Background: Early Life
Sara was a dark haired, half-Australian, half-British orphanage worker witch, and Miguel a Spanish ex-Auror who was looking for work. The couple had wanted children for awhile, and after finding out they were unable to have children they were going to adopt. Most of the children in the orphanage were already older than 4 however, and the couple wanted a baby they could raise.
One warm summer night at the orphanage, Sara discovered of a newly brought in baby boy. Nothing was known about the baby except his birth date, as the people who dropped him off were scarce with details, wanting little involvement with the young boy’s life. Taking the opportunity, Sara and Miguel adopted the boy, naming him Sancho Miguel Vasquez after his newly-adopted grandfather and father respectively.
Sara stopped working full time at the orphanage in favour of raising Sancho, while Miguel worked towards finding a new job, eventually finding one in the Australian Ministry of Magic.
Sancho grew up in Melbourne Australia with his parents, only slightly spoiled as he soon had another sister, Dana added to the family through adoption also. He always knew he was adopted; it would be hard for him not to with his appearance differing so much from his families.
School Years
Sancho began schooling at the age of 5 going on 6 in muggle school. He attended the local public school until he was 11 when he begun going to wizarding school, though to his childhood friends they just thought he had transferred to private schooling.
His years at the Australian School of Witchcraft and Wizardry (ASWW) were good. He did well in his classes and had a normal teenage life. Sancho also discovered a newfound love and talent of his, theatre and acting. The ASWW was one of the few wizarding schools that had an excellent drama program, so in his free time he worked on acting.
Before his graduation though, he was ambushed by his birth parents who suddenly wanted in on his life. Rilay and Gordon Charles told Sancho about how they only gave him up because they, being only 20 at the time, didn’t feel able to raise a child. Sancho in ruder words told them to leave him alone and never approach him again, though they didn’t. Eventually Sancho took out a wizarding restraining order, so they could not go within 20 feet of him.
He graduated from ASWW despite all the family issues he had been facing earlier, and went on to apply for a performing school so he could better hone his acting abilities.
From Graduation to Now
Sancho was accepted to the muggle Australian Performing Arts School in Sydney, and soon moved to the new city to start his life. Boarding at the school, he made friends and found a job at a wizarding coffee shop, though his time at APAS was limited, and before the first year could even end, he had left the school, not feeling like it was helping him with his life and that he wasn’t destined for a life in the spotlight.
He didn’t give up at the coffee shop though. Sancho stayed in the job fulltime, and even though it didn’t necessarily have the best pay, he enjoyed and stuck with it. At the age of 22 he took over the cafe, managing it for his elderly boss who now went in retirement.
Throughout his time working at the cafe, he held several roles in small local productions. Even though acting wasn’t the right road for him and he had left APAS because of that, he couldn’t bring himself to completely omit it from his life. When he took over managing the cafe though, he found he didn’t have enough time to go for any large roles, and soon enough he was going for less and less roles.
At the age of 27, Sancho was sick of the cafe. He loved managing it, but he needed to do something new. So he moved with his puppy Pupzilla to England, and applied for the Ministry of Magic, and was hired, and since has been the Apparition Practical Examiner in the Department of Magical Transportation.
Personality: Sancho is a hard-working, charismatic, honest guy who has his heart usually in the right place. He knows what he wants and goes for it, not letting anything stop him in the way. His confident demeanor gives him an appearance that he has complete control of his life, though he really doesn’t know what he is doing half the time, he just goes where he thinks if best for him. Sancho easily gets tiresome with things, and dislikes being cooped up and sitting still.
