AGE 30

APPEARANCE
Ben is a Chinese-British born man that stands around 6 feet and 4 inches and holds onto a fair amount of muscle throughout his body. He has black hair that's nicely cut and often kept with a nice swish to the side. He never really let's it get unkempt unless he is trying to seduce a woman, then the hair gets more of a sexual mess style than kept neat. He has thick eyebrows that frame his oriental eyes that are as dark as the night. He usually as a lighter skin tone, but he definitely tans nicely and often holds onto it. His face has a nice manly squared shape and gets emphasized more by his slight beard, which is also kept neat.
TRAITS/PERSONALITY
When Ben was attending Hogwarts he was in Ravenclaw. Now, don't let that get you fooled. Ben was a smart and brilliant student, often enjoyed reading and studying but he had his favorite pass-time which was a total different ball park. He often enjoyed dinners by candle light, strolls around the gardens, and even hand-holding. You could even find him in corners around the school chatting with a girl and toying his finger around her hair gently, all the while complimenting her. He was a total flirt and got his way around the school. Most of the girls liked him, and most of the men envied him. He had his friends and often kept true to them, but in the end his school was more important (yes, even more important than girls). However, he didn't really NEED to study that much, which did enable him to have as much free time as he did.
As Ben got older he didn't really change. He still likes to flirt and often enjoys the warm comfort of a woman but now he has greater responsibilities. He loves his family, therefore he takes care of Alex to the best of his abilities and even makes a solid effort at being a professor. He will play around with students (in joking manners not sexually, gawd!), but their improvement is very important to him.
SPECIAL ABILITIES
He is extremely good at making potions and flirting
HISTORY
Chinese-British born, Ben was the second born of two children. His older sister, Emma, was five years old when he joined the Wu family. At first she didn't really welcome, or like the idea, of a new baby brother but eventually he wore on her. She soon found out she had someone she could get to play dress up, doll house, and even school with and Ben learned that he was powerless to say no to her. She was always demanding and he simply was trying to avoid a fight by going against her. As the two got older she grew more interested in people her own age, and Ben, well he grew more interested in women that weren't his sister (yes, even at such a young age he was always flirting). The two were still close and still enjoyed each others company, but when she was nineteen things became a bit more complicated.
Emma was pregnant and in a strong relationship- or at least what she was describing to him seemed like a strong and loving relationship to a thirteen year old boy. She moved in with her boyfriend, who worked as an auror, and tried the stay-at-home mom life. When she had her son the relationship turned a little more sour than before, and Ben could remember hearing their parents talking to her, pleading for her to come home. She never did so.
By the time Ben was 23 he was playing around with odd jobs, spending mostly his parents money, and getting better and better with his potion ability. One thing he knew he did well was making potions, even sold some on the side for witches or wizards that struggled in that field. His older sister, was now a single mom handling nine year old son and a job in the ministry, also getting checks occasionally from their parents. Ben kept in touch, but he was young... and enjoying his youth.
When his nephew turned fourteen, Ben received a phone call from his parents telling him his sister has passed away. They believed it to be suicide, but it was never confirmed. Ben returned home and was stuck with a house full of pain and grief. Alex, his sisters son, locked himself in his mothers old room and never came out. Not until Ben forced himself to be an adult and go in. Ben was 27 years old when he started taking care of his nephew, a full on teenager that he hadn't had a clue on how to deal with. He was the cool uncle, the one that taught him how to flirt with girls, shave, and goof off... now he was stuck being a parent.
His own parents were too old and frail to handle Alex on their own. So there really wasn't any other choice. Alex would be looked after by Ben, and Ben was going to have to grow up. His way of growing up was going to Hogwarts and getting a job as the potions professor. A class he once got straight A's through, and a steady side job he already semi-had going on anyway. Plus, he was able to keep a closer eye on Alex.
