Personality: Nolan generally is a bit of a reserved person, although he also isn't one to turn down a conversation if someone comes up to him and starts talking. When he starts feeling comfortable he becomes more outgoing, and once you get to know him really well and he really starts feeling comfortable in his environment his playful side comes out and he likes to crack a joke or two he thinks he's funnier than he really is.

He's also very kind and cannot STAND rude or arrogant people. He tries to gain everyone's respect and if someone doesn't like him, it tends to drive him a bit insane (this may also explain why he's so into fashion and looking good--he wants people to like him!). He's also a perfectionist and you better hope you never accidentally break one of his beloved crystal balls--he might die a little inside.

In his spare time, Nolan can be found reading or catching up on the latest sports news--muggle sports, that is. He will watch Quidditch every once in a while (especially now since he works there) but muggle sports are his one true passion--mainly football (aka soccer).

History: Nolan was born in London, England. His mother, Pamela, was an Irish muggle woman, and his father Charlie was a wizard from London, so Nolan was raised in a mostly muggle neighborhood, all the while helping to hide his father's true idenity from the neighbors. However, as he grew older he began to act out, getting into trouble in his muggle school for skipping school and nearly getting kicked out a couple of times. He simply didn't see the need to do well in muggle school if he was just going to be sent off to Hogwarts. When the time came for him to go away, however, his father decided he wasn't mature enough to be sent away to school, and kept him home his first year and told him he could go to Hogwarts as soon as he proved that he could handle being away from home and learning magic.

Crushed by the fact that he was missing his first year of school, Nolan shaped up immediately and worked very hard on his homeschooling, isolating himself from the friends that had convinced him to act out in class previously. At the end of the year, his father was impressed and agreed to let him go to school in the fall to start his second year. After being homeschooled, he was determined to prove to his father that his good behavior streak could last. He excelled in all his classes but took a particular interest in Divination. After a few months in that class, he realized that he was incredibly accurate in his predictions most of the time and began to do a little research--as it turns out, he had a very distant relative in Germany who was a Seer, although even to this day Nolan is not sure if he has really inherited the "gift" or not, since he has only made one significant prediction his whole life. (If you're curious, he correctly predicted the name and age of the man that his sister Eliza eventually married, as well as the date they were going to get married).

In his sixth year, Nolan became the male prefect for Hufflepuff, but quit after that term so he could focus on his NEWTs the next year without worrying about patrols and other prefect duties. He also had a difficult time balancing school and prefect duties and was simply unhappy, although he has thankfully worked on his time management skills since then.

While at school, Nolan also discovered his love for learning, which came as a shock to anyone who had seen the young rebel grow up (including himself). After he graduated he continued to study numerous subjects by himself, buying new textbooks when they came out so he could be up to date on all the new findings in his areas of interest, including Divination. While he tried to find a job, Nolan lived at home and made extra money by giving Tarot card readings on the streets of Diagon Alley. Just as the buzz about his accurate predictions began to grow, however, he found a job at the Ministry working in the Spirit Division on Level 4, since he was highly fascinated with ghosts and spiritual beings in the afterlife. After three years in that office, he applied for a transfer to the Department of Mysteries, where he bounced around different divisions until working in the Hall of Prophecies, a job he has held until this past year.

As far as his personal life goes, Nolan has been engaged to his Hogwarts sweetheart Ginger Philips for the past year.
