Character Basics
Appearance -
Neil has some of his mother's metamorphic abilities, he may change his hair and eye color along with his height and some facial features, but nothing more.
Though he may choose many hair colors, Neil keeps his hair Black or Blond, and his eyes Gray. His hair is ussualy kept short, never growing past his neck and never getting long enough to tangle.
His eyes are slate gray and can be one of two things -- cold as ice or warm as the sun. Depending on his mood, they might be a bit black.
Wearing Gray robes, yes he does go against Hogwarts dress code when he can and it does get him in detention a lot, he keeps his wand tucked behind his ear and black boots for shoes, instead of regular Wizard shoes.
Neil has a lengthy body, even what you could call "The Horse-mans Body." He has long legs and arms and is skinny, though he does have some muscular quilities about him.

Personality -
Neil is many things, but above all he is a rebel.
He got this from his mother and he loves to stray from the crowd and be different, though this ussualy gets him a detention or two...a day. He loves to be rude to his teachers, though most just ignore it now that they are used to him.
Another major thing about him is him being just plain annoying.
He loves to annoy his sister and all the people he doesn't like. He does this by using a spell he made that makes his voice as high pitched as somebody who had been playing around with Helium. He also will just make songs about the people and fallow them around with his guitar, singing and playing.
Neil loves singing.
He has his own band called "Lycanthropy007" and plays at local clubs. The members are hoping to make it big, otherwise they will have to get real jobs until they can save up enough to try again. Neil has been singing for years now and is very talented.
Another things that Neil loves is horses.
Some think that any male who likes horses is poetic and girly -- if you just read his personality and have known him you will know he is anything but those things. He enjoys being with horses as some boys enjoy playing with their dogs. In fact, he works and rides at a Muggle riding acadamy -- though he is only a stable hand and not a student.

History -
As a child, Neil was never quite right with his father. Sure, his looks are from his father and some of his personality, but there was always a hostility between them, why nobody knows.

Neil was mellow compared to his sister, who owned the spotlight for spunk, and he likes things that Horseback Riding and Singing, though he hates Poetry and Reading. His house growing up was large, white and had light blue shudders. They lived in the woods pretty much, so when his father had to transform, the Werewolf could roam as he pleased without risk of biting somebody. Neil started riding when he was six, after realizing how much he enjoyed being around the large animals. He was soon in advanced classes and taking horses to shows, though his father seemed somewhat approving for once, he knew his mother didn't quite fallow along with his interest.

When he was Nine his sister did a really stupid stunt -- sliding down their roof in a sled -- and was landed in the hospital for a day or two. In the same year he started leasing a Black Thoroughbred named Raymis. Raymis had come off the Race Track and was extremely mean and seemingly untrained.
After a few months of training with Neil, who was the only one who would go near that horse, he became quite willing to work with the boy, and now Neil is the only one really allowed to ride him.

By age Eleven, he was going to Hogwarts and leaving Raymis behind. When he was sorted into Slytherin he knew it wouldn't help his problems with his father, and he was right; he was even more of an outcast in the family now, the black sheep of the herd. Though some how his sister and him still were able to have normal conversations...at least some of the time. Of coarse on Holidays he went to see his horse and in the summer he rode but he was otherwise trying to make it in Hogwarts.
When he was Fourteen, after years of singing and kareokee at night clubs, he made a band called Lycanthropy007.

RP Sample -
Sitting deep in the saddle, she pressed her heels into the horse and asked for a canter. The dark, golden Stallion balked, throwing his head back, though with a flick of her bat against his girth area, he gave in and moved into the working canter. Her rhythm matched his pace as she moved her hips in circles, catching the Three-beat movement. She kept a short reign on the horse, knowing if she didn't he would try to take off with her, and though she knew he wouldn't get far, she wouldn't let the horse get his own way and mess up his training. So far she had gotten him to go over the water jumps he so hatefully refused earlier, and she was making progress with him in hand, as well as in the saddle, with his tendency to take off with riders. She barely let her lips move as she talked to him, feeling his movement become sloppy and droopy. "Hush-a-babe. Husha." She said and gave a small roll of her English knob spurs, but only on his left side. She leaned herself slightly toward the left and he responded by turning that way toward a small cross-rail jump. About two strides before the jump she leaned slightly forward, getting ready for her full position and one stride before the jump she went into her full Two-Point, gripping his mane and keeping herself steady. He was quickly on the ground again and moving toward the two-foot rail jump she had set up for them to tackle next. She quickly started moving with his canter again and got ready for the jump, using the same technique on it as before.

He flew over it, though one of his back hoofs touched the top pole, making a small clicking noise. She steered the horse easily toward the next jump--The Water Jump. In this one he would have to enter a pond and in the middle there was a platform with an incline he would run up and a jump at the end he would have to face that would land him back into the water. She held her breath as they worked there way through the water and was soon on the platform. Much to her surprise he flew over the jump and landed into the water, though he lost his footing and slid to his knees. He was up in a moment though and she walked him out of the water, Dismounting and checking him once they were out. He looked okay and had not a scratch on him. "There we are, babe. Let’s go." She pulled the reigns over his head after she had run-up the stirrups. Leading him was another thing she was working on. A Two-Thousand pound animal up against a Eighty-nine pound girl was quite a match, but she kept a lead shank on him and a Double-Bridle so she really didn't have much of a time anymore, leading him.

As soon as they were safely in his stall, she said "Ho-whoa," to keep him steady and started to untack him. She took off his bridle and quickly replaced it with his Brown Leather halter and lead shank, tying him to the small tie-up ring she had put in his stall. Turning on her heel she picked up the saddle pad, saddle and girth all at once and put it on the saddle rack outside, returning to his stall at once so she could un-tie him. She took off the lead and put it on his bridle hook out-side the stall door before picking up the saddle and what not, returning them to their places in her tack room.
