Bow is a friendly sort of guy that finds it easy to make friends with pretty much anyone. He's giving and generous and willing to lend a hand to help a mate out. He can't really stay mad at anyone for too long because he's not at all stubborn. He's very forgiving over all the little things.

Being a muggleborn Slytherin he's known hate from all angels but found friendships in the most unlikely of places, and he's cool with that. He mostly hangs with his friends from other houses and ignores people that try and bully him. He's been known to get into a scuffle or five but it's never landed anyone in the hospital wing for longer than a night before.

At heart Bow feels he's a bit of a ladies man. He's into romance and treating a girl right but that doesn't mean he'll be in it for the long run. He enjoys to wine and dine but he gets bored of people quite quickly. They're either too talky, too quiet, know too much and confuse him on too many topics, not know anything of current events or even something completely different but he always finds a reason not to be with a girl which you might think makes him a bad guy and that all or at least some of his ex's don't get on with him but they all still adore him! It's like magic! Bow just keeps things real and stays pretty honest with his ex's and they usually respect him for it.

Bow's not the smartest guy but he's not exactly dumb either. Being from a muggle family with no knowledge of the magic world he dove into all that he could find about magic. He spent his first three years in the school library, immersing himself in all sorts of books. He still finds everything about magic amazing and always completes his homework the very day he gets it but he has a hard time retaining information and revising is a night mare, still he does okay with his exams and his essays are always good because he does them while the information from the day is still settled in his head.

Bow doesn't think about the future all that often but when he does he sees how he wants things to be. He wants a job as a healer. He always sees himself with a wife and a large family. Six, seven, twenty kids. He doesn't care. He just knows that in his future he will adore his wife and have plenty of kids, adopted and not.

Born to a wealthy couple, Bow never really felt there was much about him that was all that special. He was a rambunctious little lad, always running off somewhere and finding it hilarious when his parents couldn't find him. He was, perhaps, what one might refer to as 'a little shit'. He is precisely the reason why he is an only child, his parents felt they couldn't handle another and that was always fine by Bow, he never wanted a sibling growing up and he was always content being amused by his parents or his grandparents. 

At about the age of seven, Bow found himself interested in magic. Not the real sort that he knows exists today, but the muggle kind, the slight of hand sort. He was given a box of magic tricks to practice for Christmas and he had a real knack for it. No matter how badly he screwed up or how shockingly awful his tricks appeared, he always managed to pull it off somehow. Looking back Bow knows exactly how he pulled off all those tricks and it makes him chuckle. 

Going to muggle primary school gave him a background that not a lot of other students at Hogwarts seemed to have. Bow always did fairly well at school because he'd always do his homework the moment he got home. His mother was very strict with him about that and so the information he was taught during the day, stayed in his mind until he got home, wrote it all down again and then he'd forget it. It was a floored system but he never got held back and his teachers and parents always thought he was quite smart.

Finding out he was a wizard was an unbelievable feeling for Bow. He loved magic and he was great at it but he never before thought it was real! He was amazed by Diagon Alley and shopping for school supplies was one of the happiest days of his life. It was incredible seeing magic just used in everyday life and he couldn't wait to get to school and learn things. Of course there was a drawback to Hogwarts, Bow knew he was going to miss his parents greatly but they bought him an owl so he could keep in contact the wizarding way and that really lifted his spirits.

Bow was sorted into Slytherin at the sorting ceremony and there was no real reason why. The sorting hat just 'hmmm'ed and 'uhhmmm'ed for a tiny little while before placing him in the house of the snake. Though Bow was happy to be wherever because he didn't really know that most of his housemates weren't going to like him because of his blood status. He was looking forward to Hogwarts.

Bow absolutely loves magic and thanks to his frame and keen eye (and a lack of utter hate on the previous team captains parts) Bow is on the Slytherin Quidditch team as of his third year. He's now in his sixth year and Captain, although pickings for his team were kind of slim, not many wanted to be under the command of a muggleborn, but they work hard and Bow is supportive and enthusiastic about his players and he's looking forward to the summer holidays and seeing his parents and grandparents again.
