Strengths: Link is pure of heart, he's loyal and he's true. He is the definition of Gryffindor. He is willing to lay his life down for anyone that fights for a good cause. He is physically strong, as well as strong in his magical capabilities.
Weaknesses: Link doesn't let much get to him, unless his older brother, Elan, or one of his students, are being threatened. That's when his temper get's the best of him.
History: Link grew up in a loving home, looking up to his older brother his entire life. When he was only three, Elan, his older brother, left for his first year at Hogwarts. During this time, Link would take a small tree branch from his backyard and pretend it was his wand, fighting off Death Eaters and other villains.
During the summers, when Elan would come home, he would teach his little brother some magic, which, unfortunately, Link would be able to use, though not quite how it should have been. The magic just turned into some kind of mayhem, usually causing one of Elan's to become invisible or be inside out. He turned his brother's hair hot pink once when he was 7, blaming it as an accident.
When Link was finally old enough to go to Hogwarts, his brother had been done for two years, encouraging him during the summers.
Unlike his brother, Link was sorted into Gryffindor, eventually becoming Head Boy. During his school years, he met a wonderful young woman named Melanie Hedlund, his Hogwarts sweetheart. When they graduated, they wed, moving out into the countryside.
Their marriage didn't last long, Death Eaters attacking them and killing his wife when he refused to join them.
After his loss, he returned to the school, where his brother was the new Headmaster. He knew the Death Eaters wouldn't be able to invade the grounds and he could mourn peacefully.
He was appointed Head of House for Gryffindor not long after, taking the position for teaching the Transifguration class at only 19. A few years later, Link was left to watch Hogwarts during the summer while his brother was out taking care of some business.
When it came past time that his brother was supposed to be back, Link became suspicious, leaving Professor Black in charge (which, in retrospect, wasn't a very good idea) so he could find his brother.
He eventually tracked down where his brother was, held by Voleurdevie and a group of Death Eaters. He transfigured into a lion, tearing apart several Death Eaters on his way to save his brother. There, he saw Voleurdevie using the Crutiatus curse on his older brother and another couple he didn't recognize.
Right as the Dark Lord raised his wand to kill his brother, Link was able to shout "Protego!", distracting the Dark Lord and protecting his brother. Unfortunately, the curse was deflected onto the couple next to him, killing them instantly.
Link could only watch, falling to his knees at the sight of the family dying, due to his actions. The Dark Lord took this moment to turn on Link. "Sectumsempra!" The Dark Lord made a deep cut across Link's right eye, blood pouring down one side of his face. Thankfully, the Dark Lord was still too stunned to do anything more, allowing Link to grab his brother and disapperate them both right outside of Hogwarts.
He brought his brother into Hogwarts, both of them being healed by Madame Pomfrey.
To this day, Link keeps a watchful eye out for Kyleigh, the guilt hanging over him for her parents death. Elan is the only one who knows what really happened that night. Link used the secret spell while Elan was incapacitated, knowing it had to be done.
********************************************
Sample post: Link walked around the edge of the grounds, checking to make sure his brother's charms were still working properly. "Elan, you certainly know how to keep people out." He pointed his wand towards the edge of the grounds, simply thinking a few charms to test the protective capabilities.
School was about to start and he was determined to make sure that the students were safe. Losing his wife and almost losing his brother had taught him to take nothing for granted. No one was invincible, not even his big brother. "Y'know Marvolo, it's not a very good idea to be sneaking up on someone when they're testing protective charms with violent ones."
