Style: Madigan will wear anything and everything, whether it fits or not. If it’s clean he’ll wear it, and he doesn’t care what it is. Though normally he’ll be seen in jeans and a tshirt, but he’ll also wear something strange to get a good laugh out of his friends. And he loves hats.

PERSONALITY
Likes: Making people laugh, having a good time, getting things done, being a kid, getting lost in a book, having adventure, girls, parties, writing, his parents, going swimming
Dislikes: rude people, getting lost, not getting homework done, his last name (It’s Belle-key, not whatever other pronunciation everyone comes up with!), coming his hair to look “nice”, ignorance, being cooped up, whiney people, people thinking rude things about his family, having ADD
Boggart: Tonitrophobia, which is fear of thunder, even though he KNOWS it can’t hurt you
Patronus: Giraffe
Strengths: Iggy is a wicked good friend, he makes you laugh by being a dork, and he’s pretty well good in all his classes, great in arithmancy, charms, and defense against the dark arts
Weaknesses: He very easily gets lost in his own world, and he doesn’t necessarily listen all that well, it takes him a few tries (ADD)
Personality:Madigan is one of the most outgoing guys you will ever meet. He just can't help it. He sees someone, and he just talks. And talks. But even though he'll talk your ear off, he won't necessarily hear you when he talks to him. Don't get it wrong,he's a wonderful listener when you need a friend, but it just takes him a few tries. Being ADD does not have many advantages, if at all. But he likes to talk to anyone and everything, even if it doesn't talk back.
Ig loves to get a laugh. More than anything he wants to brighten someones day by getting a laugh. He carries around three balls at all times, because he loves juggling. He started to learned how to do the muggle "magic" tricks when he was about six or seven, but got really good at them when he was ten. Of course, he's much better at real magic, but the muggle magic is still a fun thing to do.
Madigan is a total sweet heart. He can't be mean. He doesn't know how. Though he's quite used to people being mean to him, though that's mostly the Slytherins, or the muggles he has known for years. But does he let it get to him? Not anymore. He used to, but he sees it all as juvenile, and just smiles and leaves. He is truly the bigger man. But he doesn't think himself greater than anyone. Why would he? He is better than no man, or woman, nor is any man or woman better than he.

General History: Madigan Hogarth Boehlke was born bright and early in the morning on November 4th, 2007. He was born to a teen mom, who knew she wouldn't be able to take care of a child. Hatter and Lena Boehlke had never been able to have children of their own, so when Ig's mom found them and offered her child, they were ecstatic, even though they were up there in age. Iggy's mom wanted a closed adoption, so he never knew who she was, or anything about her. He figured that if she didn't want to be known, he didn't want to know her. And not in a spiteful way. He just felt that to be right.
Something they weren't planning on when they adopted Madigan was him being a Wizard. His mother was a pure blood, though he doesn't know it. He figures she or his father were probably magical, but since she wished to stay anonymous and his parents respected that, they wouldn't tell him, at least until he was an adult. But he didn't care all that much. The Boehlke's have always felt like his one and only family, like he came from their genes. Although he loved the Boehlke's more than anything in the world, and wanted nothing more than to be their kid, he did have his slip ups. During the summer after his fourth year, he saw some old friends he'd went to school with before Hogwarts, and they said some things. He was determined to find her, by running away. But he was unsuccessful.
Iggy never quite fit in when it came to other kids. He had lots of friends, but he was always the funny one who did weird things a lot, because he was a fun, rather odd kid. He got weird looks when he was in public with his parents, because he is very white, and they are very not. Once he found out he was a wizard, he knew that explained some of the weirdness that surrounded him. When he started Hogwarts, he was sorted into Ravenclaw. Which made sense, he was always a huge reader, very intelligent, and a stickler for getting his work done.
Iggy met his lovely lady on the train. She was his first friend at Hogwarts, them both being first years. They were both sorted into Ravenclaw, which only furthered their friendship. He never quite imagined them as any kind of relationship. They had a sibling bond, and had always dated other people. But something changed along the line. He started to fall for her, even though he was sure that she didn't feel that way about him. But they are best friends, which is good enough for him, because she's a great girl.
Madigan doesn't necessarily have any plans for the future. He wants to go on adventures, and write stories about him. He was greatly influenced by Sir James M. Barrie's famous book, Peter and Wendy, where Wendy wanted to have adventure and write books. From a very young age, Ig just knew that was what he wanted to do. Have adventure and write thrilling novels, ones that everyone would want to read. He didn't want to be famous, or even remembered after he dies. He just wants to look back on his life, and know that he did something great with his life.
