INTRODUCTION
Full name: Gaving Byron Nott
Nickname(s): gav
Age: seventeen
Gender: male
House: Slytherin

APPEARANCE
Play By: Alexander Ludwig
Style: Gav always stays up to the latest fashion. He'd never be caught wearing something that was from ten years ago. No, he'll buy something that looks like it should have existed ten years ago, and wear that before he wears what was actually made ten years ago. He does have a love for the occasional blazer, he's not sure what it is but he always feels like a man of power when wearing one. Then there will be times where he actually dresses in a laid back manner, with a t-shirt (preferably v-neck) and jeans.

Personality:
Arianna is the one that is cold, and seemingly heartless. Scorpius is the emotional one, that has awkward moments. Somewhere between those two, there's Gavin. He has the spoiled personality, but what can you expect when your parents let you have anything in the world? He's learned that he cannot take advantage of it and knows that one day he'll have to buy all his own crap with the money he has earned. The only decent thing about being allowed to have anything he wants, is that he has no fear in realizing that he wants something. Now, saying he wants something? Hell, that's even easier. Except when it came to girls. He always felt uncomfortable around them, like they were never meant for him. That being said, if a pretty girl is interested why not spend some time with them? His number of dates overcomes the number of times he's actually slept with the girl. Sometimes those girls just talk and complete nonsense about stupid drama comes out of their mouths and Gavin will have none of it.
When it comes to friends, he's more direct. Which makes sense, seeing as they're his best mates and should know more about him than himself. That's one of his main joys in life, having someone understand why he can get so frustrated. Nothing pisses him off more than an unjust situation. Which in turn, makes his rationality levels go down by quite a bit. If something seems one hundred percent unfair to him, he could lose all clarity and even his cool. This is when he's not afraid of confrontation, the boy will go head first and point out everything wrong. Sometimes though, he'll wait, because he might have some of his common sense still. Just enough to tell him that he might be freaking out too soon.

General History:
Gavin had a very privileged childhood, right along with his twin sister. They would get whatever their little hearts desired and never think twice about it. There would be days where they would be sent to spend sometime with their cousin Scorpius and his relatively poor parents. Gavin, along with his sister, had always hated spending time with the Malfoys. For him, it seemed like an attempted guilt trip to keep the twins in line. The whole "oh not everyone is as fortunate as you two so be grateful" trick, instead of just telling the twins the cold hard facts. He hated feeling that his parents couldn't be straight with him. His sister didn't seem to care though, which also bothered him. Between the four of them, Gavin seemed to be only one with common sense. And so, his relationship with his parents and sister has always been strained and forced.
At least at school he would always have comfort. He went into school and with a friend he had made on the train ride, Elijah Macmillian. They seemed to hit it off instantly, despite having different personalities. Though, perhaps that's what made it work for the two. From the get go, even after being sorted into different houses, they had each others backs. One was always there when the other was going through something, whether it was good or bad. Gavin remembered the first time Elijah and Delilah had gone on a date. The Well, he actually remembers sitting in the Slytherin common room and overhearing how nervous Delilah was. After that though, Elijah and Delilah became inseparable. For awhile, that was perfectly fine with Gavin. Delilah brought in her friend Molly Weasley and the four of them had a friendship that seemed fated.
Slowly though, Delilah and Gavin were hanging out as friends on their own time. That seemed bound to happen since they were in the same house. They were never going to be best friends, though, that would be too weird for Gav since she was his best friend's girlfriend. Still, despite his need for logic he found he was falling for Delilah. He desperately wanted to talk Elijah about everything he was going through but it seemed impossible. When he finally had the balls to do it in sixth year, he came across Elijah and Molly, getting together. First he wanted to erase what he had just seen. Then, he wanted to beat the crap out of Elijah for doing that to Delilah. It was wrong. But he gave his friend the trust that it would all be taken care of over the summer.
Summer rolled around, he kept in touch with his three friends via owl. Not everyday, but most of the time. Most of his letters ended up going to Delilah, while Molly and Elijah seemed to be isolating themselves. Gavin knew exactly why, but saying something? How was he going to explain how he watched them for probably a good five seconds? No, that would one big mess. When school started up though, things were still not back to normal and when Gavin saw Elijah pull Molly away, his rage went through the roof. He grabbed Delilah by the arm and pulled her over to the other two. Hoping Elijah would explain, but only watched him play that stupid card. Gavin did the explaining, right then and there. The inevitable happened because of that, he lost his best friend and the girl he was madly in love with. Hopefully he can fix one of those relationships by the end of the year.
