PB: Kevin Zegers

Personality: Troy is a quiet young man, usually keeping to himself. He's not extremely shy and has no problem saying what is on his mind. He can also be very outgoing and loud around his close friends doesn't say much to people he's not familiar with or hardly knows. He is very confident and since he doesn't talk too much, most people tend to get the impression that he is stuck up or selfish. He is, however, neither of these things and does not see himself as better than others. He is sweet and kind when you get to know him and usually doesn't let people push him around.

Daring. Troy may seem shy and quiet but he can be daring. He doesn't fear much except for snakes. He is also very competitive, especially in Quidditch and will never back down from a challenge. He hates to lose or admit that he lost but if it happens, he does speak the truth.

Even though it may seem Troy isn't your typical Gryffindor, he does have some of the qualities. He can be brave, standing up to most of his classmates who try to take advantage of him and is not afraid to voice his opinion, especially in class. He knows he's not that smart but when he does know an answer, he makes sure the teacher knows as well. He tries to win the respect of his superiors whenever he can.

He is not overly smart for he spends most of his time concentrating on Quidditch but he does manage to get by with his grades. Troy is usually a happy guy who enjoys his life and is a loyal friend. Since he doesn't have many friends, he sticks to the ones that he has and tries to help them every chance he gets.

Troy doesn't have much of a temper and you hardly ever see him mad or upset. He does have a problem opening up to people who he isn't close too. Flirting is one thing Troy isn't good at. He never flirts with girls because he doesn't know what he's doing and feels awkward around them. He does, however, like girls and wishes his personality would change so he could become less nervous in their presence. Since he doesn't know how to act around females, he isn't romantic but sweet.

Day dreaming is something Troy finds himself doing a lot. He dreams of life after school and his career in the sport he loves. He hopes to one day become a professional Quidditch player and met the woman of his dreams. He has a strong ambition and works toward his goal everyday, determined to succeed.

Since Troy is shy and prefers to keep to himself, he likes his privacy and is usually found on the practice field or in the library. He is abnormally organized and keeps everything in it's place at all times. It bugs him if something is missing or dirty. Inside, Troy knows what's right and wrong and tries to do the right thing even though some may laugh or make fun of him because of it. Personally, he doesn't care about the opinion of others or what they think about him.

So overall, you could sum Troy up as being a shy young man who is not overally smart or romantic but is freakishly organized and overly obsessed with Quidditch. He can be a good and loyal friend once you get to know him but that does, in fact, take a while. He is also caring of other's feelings and tries to do whats right all the time.

Personal History: Troy was born to a wizard father and a muggle mother in Liverpool, England. His parents aren't the wealthiest people but they aren't dirt poor either. Most consider them to be middle class. Troy is an only child and prefers it that way so he can be the center of attention in, at least, his parent's life.

Rowan Clemens, Troy's father, and Tory Madison, his mother, met at a bar in London and instantly hit it off. They dated for 2 years before Rowan decided to tell Tory about the magical world and at first, she didn't like it. But eventually she got used to the idea and the two finally tied the knot. A couple of months later, Tory became pregnant and then Troy was born.

Ever since Troy was little, he followed his mother everywhere since she spent more time with him. His father was too busy working at the Ministry of Magic to pay too much attention to him but his mother was a stay at home mom and adored her little boy. Troy was never spoiled too much but always managed to get what he wanted, even though that wasn't much. He takes after his father sports wise but his personality is more like his mother's. When he was 9, Troy used magic for the first time, making one of his friends soar into the air after they got into a fight. He and his friend would constantly get into trouble, doing things such as breaking windows or getting into their neighbor's garden.

Magic seemed to come naturally to Troy, making him get into trouble even for accidents. Once, he even ran away because he thought his parents were mad at him for sending the tv flying through the window. His dad blew up, yelling constantly at him, making him nervous. He got so upset that he decided to go away for good but only made it about one hour away from home before his parents found him.

Shortly after his friend's flying accident, Troy received an acceptance letter from Hogwarts which made his father estatic. Once he arrived at school, he quickly got used to things and was sorted into Gryffindor for being brave at heart and his daring personality. He was excited about where he was placed and agree endlessly with the sorting hat. Trying to do best in school, Troy started off fairly well in his classes, making decent grades until he was discovered for his Quidditch ability and then devoted all of his time to practicing.

After a couple of years at Hogwarts, Troy fell in love with the place and was even named Quidditch Captain in his 6th year as well as playing Seeker. Like everyone else, he has made friends and enemies with different students. Since he has been at Hogwarts, he has never had a relationship and feels as if he is too busy to maintain one at the moment. Trying to take everything as positive at possible, he has found it hard to accept everything that happens but is managing and slowly growing. Maybe one day Troy Clemens with grow up enough to think about other things besides sports.

Sample RP: Laying on his bed, Troy stared up at the ceiling in his bedroom, waiting patiently for his father to get home. He still had to pack since he had to leave in the morning but he wanted to talk to his dad before doing so. As the minutes passed, he became impatient, tapping his foot on the end of his bed as he closed his eyes. He didn't know what was taking his father so long. He was usually home by now since it was eight o'clock at night. Sighing, Troy opened his crystal blue eyes again as he pushed himself off of the bed. He glanced around his room as he realized something was missing. Letting his eyes rest on the spot where his broom usually stood, he wondered what he did with it. Slowly walking toward the spot, he suddenly remembered his had left it in the garage when he was letting his father look at it.

Troy walked over to his suitcase and grabbed it as he let his mind linger on his broom. Oh how he missed Quidditch. It was his favorite thing about Hogwarts after all. He continued to think about school as he eventually gathered all of his belongings and carefully placed them neatly in his bag. When he heard the door downstairs open, Troy jerked his head to the hall then quickly made his way down the stairs to see his finally arriving father walking through the door. "Hey dad. What took you so long?" Troy asked curiously as he felt glad to be able to see his father before he left for school.
