Education & Work History

Personality
On the surface, Théophile isn't one for jokes, he's strict on discipline and standards. At his best, neutral. Don't go looking for sympathy from him as he focuses on logic rather than personal motives. This is beneficial for remaining neutral and unbiased. It's nothing personal, there are just more important things to worry about. As long as you've proven your case and remain calm, he will listen and respect that. Deep down, he does care, but he chooses to show it through actions rather than tell. How can you face adversity if you expect praise all the time? Get back to class.

Name: Étienne Duvivier Birthdate: 2 November 2101 Nationality: French Blood Status: Pure-blood House: Papillonlisse Grade: 4th Year, Class of 2120
Background: Étienne Duvivier, raised among the spellbound vineyards of Bordeaux, grew up surrounded by enchantments, tradition, and the quiet pressure of legacy. As the heir to a renowned family of magical vintners—revered for their artisanal wines and refined status in France's wizarding circles—Étienne was groomed for charm, etiquette, and public grace. Yet beneath his polished demeanour lies a restless soul drawn to the arcane and the obscure. Fascinated by forgotten ruins and the untamed edges of magic, he yearns for a life steeped in discovery rather than expectation. Though soft-spoken and observant, Étienne's loyalty runs deep, and those close to him know the fierce devotion masked behind his cool elegance. Balancing poise with quiet rebellion, he walks the line between duty and desire, seeking not just who he ought to become but who he dares to be.

Name: Corentin Rochefort Birthdate: 4 January 2103 Nationality: French Blood Status: Half-blood House: Ombrelune Grade: 3rd Year, Class of 2121
Background: Raised in Marseille by his unconventional aunt and uncle—magical architects with a reputation for animating entire structures with a flair of spells—Corentin (Cory) grew up in the shadow of a mystery. His parents, both wandmakers, vanished during a research trip to the Atlas Mountains when he was just seven, an event that left an indelible mark on his quiet, contemplative nature. Arriving at Beauxbatons in secondhand robes and with few connections, Coco has steadily carved out his place through talent, persistence, and quiet confidence. While often overlooked for his reserved demeanour, he's an accomplished duellist with a particular gift for defensive spells. Loyal to his small circle of friends and prone to moonlit wanderings over noisy gatherings, Coco is guided by dry wit, deep resilience, and a singular dream: to uncover the truth behind his parents' disappearance.

Background: Born in the coastal village of Oudeschild, Dorothea grew up straddling two worlds—one of magic, the other of giant blood. She spent her early years navigating a world where her height and strength often set her apart. At Beauxbatons, she learned to transform those differences into a magnetic warmth, sharp wit, and an unwavering sense of self. Drawn to history's forgotten corners, Dorothea immersed herself in the study of ancient civilisations, eventually carving out a distinguished career as a magical historian and acclaimed author. Her adventurous spirit, however, was shaped equally by love and loss, particularly the sudden death of her beloved partner, which left an enduring mark on her resilient nature. In time, her passions led her back to the classroom—first in Cannes, then Beauxbatons itself—where she is driven to honour the past while inspiring the future.

PROFESSOR GABRIEL MARTIN ARTS & HUMANITIES face claim: Scott Michael Foster| post color: #A2C93A / sweet potato vine ...................
✥ the opening chapter
NAME: Gabriel Sacha Martin DOB: 21.03.2056 LANGUAGES: French (native), English (fluent), Occitan (conversational), Latin (academic reading), Italian (passive fluency), Arabic (basics) PLACE OF BIRTH: Middlesbrough, UK CURRENTLY RESIDES: Edinburgh, UK HERITAGE: French PARENTAGE: halfblood ABILITY: wandless magic (enhanced by bindrune and alchemic symbols tattooed on his fingers) WAND: whippy 13 ⅔" Walnut with a Clabbert Tooth core ASTROLOGICAL SIGN: Aries FAMILIAR: Virelai (Augurey) PATRONUS: wren AMORENTIA: old parchment and fresh ink, lavender and rosemary, well-worn leather, brioche BOGGART: stacks of burning books
HAIR COLOR: golden brown EYE COLOR: blue HEIGHT: 6' 2" (188 cm) BUILD: graceful, lean, subtly athletic MB TYPE: INFJ-A
Gabriel is quietly brilliant, meaning he is highly intelligent yet unfailingly modest. His wit, dry and incisive, carries a gentle touch, seldom wielded to wound. Though he holds a deep appreciation for classical arts (symphonies, ballet, the enduring beauty of history), he approaches life with an open spirit, finding just as much joy in the raucous thrill of a Quidditch match or the bright theatricality of a musical (a taste lovingly cultivated by his partner, Tiberius). Rooted by a strong sense of authenticity, Gabriel has little patience for arrogance or shallow performance. He values thoughtfulness, honesty, and quiet excellence, believing that true character is revealed not in grand gestures, but in everyday acts of curiosity, generosity, and care.
Family is the truest cornerstone of Gabriel’s life. He adores his children and treasures the bonds of family — whether by blood or by heart — with a steadfast devotion that informs both his work and his worldview. His scholarly-side reflects this same belief: that history is not simply a record of dates and facts, but a living, breathing story built from human connection. As a professor, a historian, a father, and a friend, Gabriel moves through the world with an understated grace — a reminder that the brightest lights often shine the most quietly.

✥ a familiar chapter reopened
As a professor at Beauxbatons, Gabriel teaches with a quiet enthusiasm that slowly builds, drawing students into his subject without ever overwhelming them. He strives to treat every lesson like a shared conversation, encouraging discussion, questions, and even respectful debate rather than lecturing at length. He believes students learn best when they feel like participants in history and culture, not just observers. He frequently uses storytelling, dramatic reenactments, and creative visuals (usually conjuring illusions of ancient artifacts or magical art mid-air) to make his material vivid and tangible. He has a particular talent for weaving magical and non-magical history together, helping students understand how art, music, politics, and magic are inseparably linked.
Gabriel is patient, even when questions seem off-topic, always finding a way to gently guide conversations back to the core theme. He prizes curiosity over perfection and values original thinking, often rewarding students more for unique insights than for simply getting the "right" answer. While his expectations are high, he is never harsh. He provides abundant, detailed feedback and always encourages second chances. Students hopefully leave his classroom not just knowing historical facts, but feeling connected to the people and ideas that shaped their magical world.
QUIRKS
Whistles like a snidget when pleased. A light, musical whistle escapes him when a student gives an especially insightful answer, resembling the airy, fluttery song of a golden snidget.
Carries a charmed fountain pen instead of a wand during lectures. His wand is tucked away unless absolutely needed — he gestures with an old-fashioned black fountain pen that trails little ink motes in the air when he's animated.
Overfills margins with handwritten notes on student essays. His feedback is long, personal, and sometimes wanders into little doodles (tiny dragons, vines, stars) if the essay inspires him.
Softly hums French lullabies or bits of classical music when grading.
Occasionally acts out historical events in dramatic mini-performances. Might leap onto a desk to impersonate a famous speech, or dramatically reenact a cursed duel between Renaissance painters to entertain and educate...and try to keep teenage attention spans engaged.
When introducing a particularly unusual historical fact, he says: "History is stranger than fiction — and magic makes it stranger still." Happens often enough that it is considered one of his catchphrases.
Always has a little snack tucked into his desk drawer. Usually grapes, candied almonds, or madeleines; he offers them absentmindedly to students who look stressed or tired ― but only at the end of class as food is strictly prohibited in the classroom.
Wears mismatched cufflinks without noticing. One might be a sleek silver feather, the other a tiny golden book. Students might take secret bets on what combination he’ll show up wearing.
A habit from years of listening carefully, he visibly and almost exaggeratedly tilts his head like a curious bird when asked an unexpected question as if perching to consider.
Signs all his notes with a flourish and a doodled snidget ― even formal announcements end with it.

Please feel free to reach out if you want to discuss any specifics!
