SPOILER!!: notes
Flynn has known he was gay since he was a small child, however due to a negative bullying experience he's now firmly in the closet and only his closest friends and family from before the incident are aware of this at the current time. It has not been an issue he has needed to face again due to his age. Likely anyone who has met him since first year would assume he is straight unless directly told otherwise by himself or one of the other Stark School kiddos. Currently he is inclined to let people think that too, and perhaps even actively encourage it. Closets are safe and warm, fam.

SPOILER!!: wand description


Less rare as a wand wood than it once was, Willow is a wand which is well suited to healing spells and for use in divination. This handsome wood is also particularly suited for advanced non-verbal magic and it is this characteristic which often sees a witch or wizard requesting a Willow wand to try out. However Willow is attracted to those individuals who are less confident, and the famous wandmaker Garrick Ollivander once noted that the ideal owner for a Willow wand usually has some (often unwarranted) insecurity, however well they may try and hide it. Willow wands make a match with those of great potential as opposed to those who have little to learn. A student is more likely to make a good match with Willow than a master. A well known proverb in the Ollivander family is 'he who has furthest to travel will go fastest with Willow'. Willow wands are excellent for potioneers, and for water elemental spells. It has an affinity for those with good intuition who are willing to work hard and do the right thing.

Griffin claw cores often pair well with dexterous users, and those that are able to cast spells with finesse. Delicate wand movements feel natural with wands that feature this core. Protection spells and shields are some of the easier spell types to master with a core of this type. Wands with this core tend to be attracted to noble-hearted individuals, or those who feel they have something to prove, and are ill-suited to dark magic pursuits or nefarious endeavours. These are not easy wands to pass on to another, as it bonds very closely to its original owner.


APPEARANCEINFO
Hair
Brown, though it was blonde as a baby. The sun typically lightens it somewhat. His hair is either fluffy or floppy depending how he styles it.
Eyes
The same striking blue as his father.
Height
6'1 and growing fast. He broke the 6 foot mark at the end of his 4th year.
Build
Noticeably muscular for his age, a dancer's physique, strong legs, shoulders, arms, and abs.
Complexion
Caucasian
Style
His momma is a model, and as such he's been brought up fairly fashion-conscious. Flynn historically preferred bright colours and patterns, florals, sequins, and a bit of flamboyance, and as a young child was known to wear dresses, and a tutu over his regular clothes, but he was unfortunately beat up a few years ago by some bullies and since then has suppressed his natural style inclinations and can typically be found wearing clothes that are typically 'boyish', even if they are generally impeccably styled and accessorised. This is not common knowledge.
Mannerisms
Physically Flynn is very confident and self-assured. He's a dancer and his movements tend to be fluid, dynamic, and confident. He has very excellent posture, talks with his hands, and is comfortable with the space he takes up in the world, even if he is constantly adjusting to the increase as he grows.

PERSONALTRAITS
Likes
dancing, performing, musicals, dragons, kickboxing, TDK, concerts, surfing, the beach, cars, nice clothes, cooked breakfasts, Tavie Stark, Stark school kids in general, making new friends
Dislikes
bullies, pumpkin, having to go between two houses, restrictive clothes that he can't dance in, Maths, long essays, his voice breaking (embarassing), retiring dance routines, costume malfunctions, misunderstandings
Strengths
Kind, patient, determined, ambitious, dedicated to his friends, open-minded to all walks of life, respectful of authority, willing to share with and help others, dancing, performing in general
Weaknesses
maths and numbers, food, Tavie
Triggers
bullying and physical fights
Hobbies
Dancing, kickboxing, skateboarding, dressing up, fashion, going on adventures, cooking healthy food with his mum, TBA, TBA, TBA
Goals
he wants to go to the national ballet school when he is 16, determined to be a professional dancer, make lots of friends, get a boyfriend girlfriend, get good grades to make his parents happy, get 'tough' so he can never be beat up again.
Habits & Quirks
His hair is usually pretty fluffy, and he fluffs it up now if he's self-conscious or going awkward, always sings phone numbers, in general uses music as a mnemonic device, good with cardinal directions, bad with numerical distances, like his fruit to be cut up before eating it, uses old homework for bookmarks, makes his bed early every morning, has a very strict workout regime alongside his dancing
SPOILER!!: the repressed stuff

A good number of Flynn's hobbies and traits have been selectively cultivated by him. Not that they're less genuine, but he has intentionally dropped or minimized a lot of overt things he loves pre-Hogwarts that homophobic bullies might target e.g he doesn't wear nail polish anymore even though he used to beg his mum to do colourful designs, he used to mix typically feminine clothes into his wardrobe e.g wearing a tutu or a sundress over his jeans and t-shirt. Flynn knows his interest in dance (particularly ballet) and musical theatre are fundamentally things that might still attract a certain kind of negative attention, but other than that he is careful to cultivate his appearance and mannerisms to be more stereotypically 'boyish' which also means unless your character knew him well as a child or has been told directly by him, they do NOT know this facet of his personality, that he was beat up, or that he is gay, so please don't RP that your character 'can tell'!


BACKGROUNDORIGINS
Parents
Grayson Douglas Whitlock & Ruby Clytemnestra Banner
Siblings
Zane Paris Darcy (26/01/2099)
Other significant family
Fintan Darcy (his mum's boyfriend and brother's dad), various Banner uncles and aunts, West Odessa and Aspen Montmorency née Odessa (first cousins once removed - their mother was his grandma's sister), ditto with the Branxtons, so many more tbh there is a tree, ask if you're interested
Family History
Flynn's parents were high school sweethearts and had him very young - he was born only a few months after they graduated. His mum - a model- left his dad- a potioneer- when Flynn was just a toddler. Flynn lived with his grandmother for a while and then with his uncle Gabriel Banner. Then when he was six she met Fintan Darcy while working. They didn't officially become a couple for a few years, but Flynn took to the man immediately because he works with dragons and as a kid Flynn went through a definite phase. Nowadays Flynn and Ruby, and his little brother Zane (who Flynn adores) live together and he visits with his dad every few weeks when he's not at school.
Chosen family
Flynn is also incredibly close with the Stark family. His mum had been a diehard TDK fan (and West Odessa's cousin) and had always tagged along with the band as much as possible. It just so happened that she was pregnant and expecting around the same time as Isidora Miroslava (now Stark), So Flynn and Octavia Stark were born only a few months apart. Their mothers bonded over this and became friends, and Flynn and Tavie became inseparable. Due to TDK's fame, Dora was apprehensive about sending Octavia off to a public school, so she began tutoring her at home, it was only natural for Flynn to be included in this, and eventually the children of other friends, many of them with famous or fame-adjacent parents. Jade Scabior was the oldest, then Tavie and Flynn, and the others their age, Cece, Yoyo, and the James Twins, and lastly the younger girls who are not yet Hogwarts age, Emmerson and Emma. The wider network of Stark School families have always been there for each others children, and to this day the kids are incredibly clise, especially Flynn and the other five who are in his same year.
