DESCRIPTION: Subaru stands an average 5'-7" and weighs in approx 130 lbs. He is fairly scrawny and as most people like to point out, not built for fighting, which suits him just fine. Black locks frame an oval face, and he tend to wear his hair long in the front and short and spiky in the back, though lately it has grown out and could be described to look like a muggle mullet, albeit a very short one. He also has 3 sliver earrings in his left ear and 2 in his right. Other than that he has a few small scars and scratches typical of a kid in his teenage years.
Subaru is a quiet withdrawn boy and prefers the company of solitude to the loud rambunctiousness of large groups of people. His quick and cunning mind combined with his forked tongue have landed him in more than a few tough spots though he usually manages to just as easily get himself back out. He has a healthy sense of self preservation and he will try and avoid potentially disastrous situations if it can be helped.
He enjoys walking along/through the forbidden forest when he can get away with it and he has been known to play wizards chess or shogi with any of the professors/students if they should ask. Subaru also has a nasty streak for skipping classes he think are boring or useless, much to the annoyance of his professors. If someone manages to befriend Subaru though, they will find him to be very loyal and steadfast in everything he does.
PLAY-BY: Amano ShinjiPATRONUS: A Kiwi -> He has produced it corporeally a few times, though once he found out his patronus was a temperamental, flightless bird he's all but given up on the idea of summoning it.
BOGGART: Never gaining his fathers approval.
MIRROR OF ERISED: If Subaru were to take a look in the mirror he would see himself as an accomplished Death Eater and his father would finally think he was worth something.
HABITS: Subaru will fiddle with one of his earrings if bored or nervous.
PET PEEVE: People plain and simple. He hates chatter boxes and those who like to force their unwanted company on him. Not to mention people who talk just to hear themselves speak, even if they have no clue as to what they are rambling on about.
STRENGTHS:
• Potions & Charms
• He has a natural way with Magical Creatures
• Clever (When he wants to be)
• Flying (He is a seeker after all)
WEAKNESSES:
• Skips classes he thinks are of no benefit to him
• Loner
• Judgmental
• Socially Awkward
TRAITS:
Loner. Look up the definition of anti-social in the dictionary and you would find Subaru's name next to it. For as long as he could remember he's never liked being in or around large crowds of people, preferring solitude to useless interaction. He's quite withdrawn and has a hard time warming up to people though over time he has been getting better.
Socially Awkward. Since Subaru is considered a loner by most people's standards it's really no surprise that he is also very socially awkward. He doesn't understand the reasoning behind most social events and since he doesn't go out of his way to interact with people he often finds himself saying the wrong thing during conversations, having a tendency to be rather blunt. Most times though he will choose to remain quiet unless he feels he has something to say.
Ambitious. No surprising considering the house he has been sorted into. Subaru has a driving need to prove to the world, or more importantly his father, that he can make something out of himself. When this snarly Slytherin puts his mind to a task it usually doesn't take him long to get it done. He has goals he wants to achieve and if he needs to use a few people as steeping stones then so be it.
Loyal. As standoffish as Subaru tends to be he can be a loyal friend if you can worm your way under his armor. If push came to shove and someone he cared for was in trouble they could count on Subaru to back them up.
Smart. On the rare occasion he opts to show off his smarts, it often leaves people wondering how he wasn't sorted into Ravenclaw. Subaru more often than not can be found in the library or up in his dorm with his nose buried in a book. For the most part classes come easy to him and when something catches his interest it shows.

GOAL: The driving force behind Subaru currently is the desire to become on of the greatest Death Eaters ever. Call it a childish want, or a dream if you like but this clever Slytherin intends to do whatever it takes to get his father to recognize him. Though if opportunity strikes, he would love to become a professional Quidditch player or a Dragon Feeder at Gringrotts.HISTORY:
Subaru was born April 13 1995, in the Tottori prefecture of Japan , into a half blood family known as the Takahashi. His mother, Haurka died while giving birth to him, something his father to this day still blames him for. Kiyoshi was bitterly distraught after his wife’s untimely death and his personality grew darker as each day passed.
Holding no love for his new born son he took Subaru to what he would later learn was his grandparents house where he was raised until he was 8 years old. His grandparents taught him the basics: reading, writing, typical Japanese traditions and most importantly how to keep his emotions in check to avoid having the usual manifestations of magical ability that occurs in young, inexperienced wizards occur . Their methods of teaching left something to be desired. Beatings and curses followed failures and as such Subaru was quick to learn and even quicker to hide anything that would displease his grandparents.
During the eight years Subaru was left with his grandparents, all he had ever heard about his father was that he was overseas conducting business that would do the family proud. What Subaru didn't realize was that his father was conducting business with the at the time dark lord, Voldemort. Thus he was only mildly surprised when shortly after his 8th birthday; his father had come to take him, his uncle and his grandfather to a place just outside of London, England. The move did not take long and his father’s only explanation was that he would attend a school called Hogwarts and learn everything he could about its students and workings while his grandfather, uncle and him would be attending to other matters.
The three years that followed were anything but fun. Subaru had to learn the English language and be able to speak it fluently, he also was drilled and taught what seemed like just about every basic spell imaginable, both dark and light that a first year could manage. If he had thought his grandparent’s punishments for failures were harsh then his fathers were nothing short of hellish. This was learned very well after a most memorable “boys don’t cry” lesson. It was only after he had turned 11 did his Hogwarts letter come. Honestly Subaru had never felt happier.
His first year at Hogwarts was not quite the sanctuary he had hoped it would be. He had been sorted into Slytherin as he had predicted but had a hard time warming up to his year mates. He preferred to keep to himself and stay away from the political trifles of his house, as he had enough of that to deal with at home. Subaru found most of the classes being taught rather boring, he had devoured all his text books the moment his father had brought him home from Knockturn/Diagon Ally, not to mention all the drill work his father put him through made spell casting a breeze. Thus he was always drifting off, drawing in his texts and generally not paying attention to his lessons. However, he still managed to turn in most of his assignments and pass with acceptable grades.
He second year passed in much the same way but with the professors being less tolerant of his showing up late/skipping of classes and of handing in constantly late assignments. He spent most of his free time doing detentions under the impression it was to help him adjust his attitude.
On December 19, 2008, the Death Eaters attacked Hogwarts during the annual Yule Ball. Subaru not being of age had snuck down to the great hall to see what all the fuss was about, sitting in a shadowy corner of the great hall under a notice-me-not charm. Next thing he knew a huge commotion had broken out and Death Eaters were attacking the students and professors. He wasn't as worried as he perhaps should have been, with death-eaters and all storming the castle, it was what he aspired to be after all. His father would be out there as well so he really had nothing to worry about so long as he stayed out of sight. He watched from his corner as students were rounded up, a small smile on his face.
The rest of the semester was spent at the temporary school Hogwarts had set up and things progressed as usual. At the beginning of the following year his father had sent him back to Hogwarts to finish his studies.
Since the takeover Subaru has been nothing but studious in all his classes, though he still skips regularly. Ever since the attack and subsequent takeover he has had nothing on his mind except the driving force to become the greatest death-eater alive. He was excelling in almost all of his classes much to the chagrin of his other year mates (Subaru refused to loan them his homework). In his free time he has wandered along the edge of the forbidden forest and the lake where he has been able to better keep to himself.
