Three Characteristics You Think You Are:
[ BOLD ] Dustin knows better then most that his personality is big, brash, and he isn't afraid to allow his big mouth or his loud actions to stop him from doing whatever it is that's on his mind whether it's a brilliant idea of absolute rubbish.
[ HILARIOUS ] Dustin is quite the charmer if that meant he knew how to tell a joke, be genuinely funny, and riff others bits to pieces. He loved a good roast and found those who could keep up to be the people he most wanted to be around.
[ UNDERESTIMATED ] He knew that a lot of people saw how loud he was ; distracted and a bit dismissive to focus time, but it didn't mean his mind wasn't working. The kid was smart and it was probably his biggest asset that most people had and would ever realize until it was too late.
Three Characteristics Others Think You Are:
[ UNATHLETIC ] He fell down a handful of times during Flying Class during their first year and his entire class would not let up. He was actually pretty good on a broom, he just thought Quidditch wasn't fun unless he was able to go as fast as he could. Guess that meant he wanted to be a seeker.
[ IRREVERENT ] Dustin didn't care if it was the wrong time, the wrong place, a very stoic moment; he would happily say something to ruin the moment if he found it to be funny. He was quite the prankster and would never apologize for that.
[ SOCIAL BUTTERFLY ] He's been told to shut his mouth quite a few times during his time in Hogwarts but that sure wasn't going to stop him. He loved to yap.
Three Random Facts:
[ 01. ] Dustin is actually extremely generous when it comes to sharing and offering others things that he has. It's often why people think he comes unprepared but it's because he knows it'll circle back to him when it needs to.
[ 02. ] He's getting a pet rat this year even if he has to beg, borrow, or steal one from the Basements to ensure it happens. Dustin is not ashamed of his love for rodents.
[ 03. ] His first instance of magic was when Dustin was jumping off of his bed and fell out of his window and didn't break any bones, simply bouncing his way to safety.
Aspirations: His only aspiration is to make it through the year making people laugh. He did love Defense Against the Dark Arts and Charms so perhaps learning and getting better at that this year too.
Favourite Class: Defense Against the Dark Arts
Least Favourite Class: Herbology
Favourite Wizarding Food or Drink: Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans was his favorite dessert, especially when he forced everyone to have one and see who had the misfortune of puke, boogies, or owl pellet flavored.
Thoughts on Blood Purism: No real thoughts on Blood Purism, finds it to be grown up problems and tells the other Slytherins to shut up about it when they're around him.
Thoughts on the Government: He hears chatter from his father about it's benefits but he doesn't quite know enough to have a true stance on how to feel. He's too busy trying to sneak his way around Hogwarts and find his own version of an Invisibility Cloak.

Father - Douglas Burke

Roleplay Example:
the slytherin common room was as grand as he expected it to look from all of the stories he heard from his parents and family members. of course, his father hadn't cared what house he was in but ulysses' mother had made quite the impression that slytherin was very important in keeping them in an important standing within society. why that all mattered to uly? he didn't have enough brain cells to rub together to try and figure all of that out and certainly didn't want to try. instead, he focused on the quidditch pitch and seeing how he could speed through flying class so that he could have even more time on a broom now that it was all real and legitimate.
so if it meant ignoring some of his roommates for now, what was the big deal?
ulysses often snuck in right before (or right after) curfew and left as early as he could to daydream or get some of his flying in. after learning about broom racing, he had a whole new sport to consider as he already decided to start saving his weekly allowance for a top tier twink broom depending on what sport called to him more.
well, now that it was saturday, the young slytherin boy slept in unapologetically as he finally rose hours into the sunlight seeping in as he pushed himself up and noticed a blonde-haired student casually thumbing through a book as he laid on his bed.
uly let out a loud yawn, still shaking the sleep from his body as he rustled his hair from its bed head into something a little more manageable before calling over to the other slytherin.
" sorry, i'm still getting used to this whole roommates thing. we had our own bedrooms at home. "
