PERSONALITY:
LYSANDER IS VERY INTELLIGENT FOR HIS AGE. THAT IS TO SAY, HE HAS READ MANY BOOKS, AND REMEMBERS MANY THINGS FROM THEM. HAVING READ SAID BOOKS AND OTHER INFORMATIVE PIECES OF PARCHMENT, FROM HIS PARENT'S STUDIES, ABOUT MAGIZOOLOGY AND HERBOLOGY SINCE HIS FIRST YEAR AT HOGWARTS. HE IS FASCINATED WITH NATURE, MAGICAL AND NON-MAGICAL ALIKE, TRYING TO SPEND EVERY FREE MINUTE HE HAS OUTSIDE, OBSERVING IT. HE ALSO LOVES LEARNING ABOUT MUGGLES, THEIR LIFESTYLE AND THEIR PERSPECTIVE OF THE WORLD AROUND THEM. HE FINDS IT INTRIGUING THAT THEY MANAGE TO TRAVEL LONG DISTANCES, SPEAK TO EACH OTHER FROM TWO SEPARATE CITIES AND EVEN FLY WITHOUT THE USE OF MAGIC.
HE HAS NEVER REALLY BEEN INTERESTED IN ACTIVITIES OTHER WIZARDS HIS AGE TAKE PART IN; PARTIES, QUIDDITCH...DATING, ETC. EVEN HIS TASTE IN MUSIC IS DIFFERENT (HE PREFERS CLASSICAL MUSIC, RATHER THAN BANDS SUCH AS THE "WEIRD SISTERS".) HE FINDS LOUD, CELEBRATORY PARTIES THAT SOME OF THE SCHOOL HOUSES HOST TO BE "SOMEWHAT OBNOXIOUS" AND USUALLY TAKES TO THE LIBRARY WHILE THEY ARE GOING ON. HE ISN'T MUCH OF A RULE BREAKER. AS HE IS NOT ENTIRELY WELCOME TO THEM. AS FOR QUIDDITCH, HIS FEAR OF FLYING PREVENTS HIM FROM EVER WANTING TO SIT ON A BROOM, NONE THE LESS FLY IT AROUND WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF BEING KNOCKED OFF. HE DOES ATTEND THE GAMES HOWEVER, SIMPLY BECAUSE HE HAS READ MANY BOOKS ON THE HISTORY OF THE SPORT.
LIKE HIS MOTHER WHEN SHE WAS IN HOGWARTS, LYSANDER BELIEVES THAT MANY CREATURES UNKNOWN TO WIZARDS AND MUGGLES ALIKE ARE ROAMING THE WORLD. UNSEEN TO THE EYES OF...ANYTHING WITH EYES.
LYSANDER USUALLY FINDS HIMSELF LOST IN THOUGHT, AND FINDS IT SOMEWHAT DIFFICULT TO PAY ATTENTION TO ONE THING. WHICH CAUSES HIM TO OFTEN STARE OFF INTO SPACE FOR A MOMENT. THIS CAUSES SOME TROUBLE WHEN HE WISHES TO GET THINGS DONE, BUT HE USUALLY MANAGES TO GET BACK ON TRACK AND FINISH WHAT HE'S DOING EVENTUALLY.
ANOTHER OUTCOME OF LYSANDER'S MIND CONSTANTLY IN MOTION IS HIS TROUBLE SLEEPING. WHICH SOMETIMES MAY LEAD TO HIM DOZING OFF DURING CLASS. THIS, OF COURSE, LEADS TO TROUBLE WITH THE PROFESSORS. HOWEVER, SINCE HE STILL MANAGES TO FINISH HIS HOMEWORK AND USUALLY GETS AN EXCELLENT GRADE (THANKS TO THE LIBRARY), MOST OF THEM DON'T CONSIDER IT A LARGE ISSUE.
LYSANDER HAS THE TENDENCY TO BE BLUNT. HE ALWAYS SAYS WHAT'S ON HIS MIND, WHETHER OR NOT THE PERSON WITH WHOM HE SPEAKS WOULD LIKE IT. THIS MAKES HIM SOMEWHAT AWKWARD TO SPEAK TO, FOR SOME PEOPLE, AS HE COMMONLY INTERRUPTS THEM WITH LITTLE BLURBS FROM PASSAGES HE HAS READ. MAKING IT APPEAR AS THOUGH HE HASN'T EVEN BEEN LISTENING, BECAUSE AT TIMES THE SUBJECT HE MENTIONS SEEMS OFF TOPIC.
HE VIEWS THE TOPIC TO BE VERY OPEN. AS AN EXAMPLE; DURING A CONVERSATION ABOUT LAST NIGHTS QUIDDITCH SCORES, HE MAY SPEAK ABOUT THE HISTORY OF BROOM FLYING OR BROOMSTICK GAMES PLAYED IN OTHER COUNTRIES.the way i lived,
MOTHER: LUNA SCAMANDER (NEE LOVEGOOD)
FATHER: ROLF SCAMANDER
BROTHERS: LORCAN SCAMANDER
SISTERS: NONE
HISTORY: LYSANDER WAS BORN IN SWEDEN, WHERE HIS MOTHER AND FATHER WERE TRAVELING AT THAT TIME TO STUDY MAGICAL CREATURES. MAINLY, HIS MOTHER WAS SEARCHING FOR THE CRUMPLE-HORNED SNORKACK. AFTER HE AN HIS BROTHER, LORCAN, WERE BORN, HIS FAMILY IMMEDIATELY MOVED BACK TO ENGLAND SO THE CHILDREN WOULD BE ABLE TO ATTEND HOGWARTS.
LYSANDER'S FAMILY COMMONLY SPENT TIME OUTSIDE, SINCE BOTH OF HIS PARENTS WERE (AND STILL ARE, MIND YOU) WIZARDING NATURALISTS (OR MAGIZOOLOGISTS, WHICHEVER TERM YOU PREFER). THEY WOULD GO ON LONG CAMPING TRIPS, STUDYING THE MAGICAL CREATURES AROUND THEM. THIS IS HOW LYSANDER BECAME TO LOVE NATURE.
ON ONE OF THE TRIPS INTO A MUGGLE CITY WHEN HE WAS PROBABLY TEN YEARS OLD OR SO, LYSANDER'S FASCINATION WITH THE NON-WIZARDING WORLD CAME TO BE. HE AND HIS FATHER SOON BEGAN COMMON EXPEDITIONS INTO THE MUGGLE WORLD, GOING INTO THEIR SHOPS AND CINEMAS. TO YOUNG LYSANDER, IT WAS LIKE A TRIP TO THE FAIR.
BESIDES THE FREQUENT TRIPS AND OCCASIONAL HUNTS FOR A CRUMPLE-HORNED SNORKACK; HE HAD AN AVERAGE CHILDHOOD, HE NEVER LIVED THROUGH ANY PARTICULARLY ROUGH OR TRAUMATIC EXPERIENCES.
IN LYSANDER'S FIRST YEAR, HE WAS SORTED INTO RAVENCLAW. HAVING NOT BEEN BRAVE AND COURAGEOUS ENOUGH FOR GRYFFINDOR, NOT CUNNING ENOUGH FOR SLYTHERIN.
HE ALWAYS HAD SOME DIFFICULTY IN ASTRONOMY; HE WOULD BECOME DISTRACTED WHEN HE LOOKED INTO THE STARS. THE MOST DIFFICULT CLASS FOR HIM IN HIS FIRST YEAR WAS FLYING. IT WAS HIS FIRST TIME EVER ON A BROOM AND AFTER A COUPLE MINUTES, HE LOST CONTROL. THE BROOM HAD SPED UPWARDS AND HE LOST HIS GRIP. HE FELL FROM QUITE A HIGH POINT, AND BROKE HIS ARM FROM LANDING ON IT POORLY. SINCE THAT MOMENT HE NEVER ATTEMPTED FLYING AGAIN.
IN HIS SECOND YEAR, LYSANDER GREW AN INTEREST FOR HERBOLOGY THAT RIVALED WITH HIS FASCINATION IN THE NON-WIZARDING WORLD. HE COMMONLY ASSISTED THE HERBOLOGY PROFESSOR OUT OF CLASS; WITH ACTIVITIES SUCH AS CARRYING BAGS OF NEWLY DELIVERED DRAGON DUNG TO THE GREENHOUSES OR ORGANIZING THE BOOKSHELVES. HE WAS THE BRIGHTEST IN HIS CLASS DURING THAT HOUR.
DURING HIS THIRD YEAR, HE WAS ABLE TO TAKE HIS FIRST CARE OF MAGICAL CREATURES CLASS. HE WAS EXTREMELY EXCITED TO TAKE THIS COURSE, SINCE HE WOULD BE ABLE TO CARE FOR CREATURES THAT HE HAD READ ABOUT IN BOOKS.
DURING HIS FOURTH YEAR, LYSANDER DECIDED TO JOIN THE ORCHESTRA. DURING THAT TIME, HE LEARNED TO PLAY THE CELLO.
FINALLY, HIS FIFTH YEAR. LYSANDER SPENT ALL OF HIS FREE TIME STUDYING VIGOROUSLY FOR THE O.W.L. EXAM. SPENDING EVERY NIGHT READING CHAPTERS FROM HIS COURSES OVER AND OVER. DOING THE BEST IN HIS ABILITY TO STAY FOCUSED, WHICH WAS QUITE DIFFICULT FOR HIM. HE STILL PLAYED THE CELLO; HAVING TORTURED HIS FAMILY WITH HIS PRACTICING THROUGHOUT THE SUMMER. ALTHOUGH HIS STUDIES WERE HIS LARGEST PRIORITY, AND TOOK UP MOST OF HIS TIME. LYSANDER HAS NEARLY GROWN OUT OF HIS DIFFICULTY TO FOCUS IN CLASSES. ALTHOUGH HE STILL HAS THE TENDENCY TO LOSE TRACK OF A CONVERSATION AND GET LOST IN HIS THOUGHTS.
THROUGHOUT HIS YEARS IN SCHOOL, LYSANDER KEEPS IN CONTACT WITH HIS PARENTS, USUALLY SENDING A LETTER THROUGH THE OWL POST EVERY/EVERY OTHER WEEK. HE RETURNS HOME TO SPEND THE HOLIDAY WITH HIS FAMILY EVERY DECEMBER.
