Name: Sadiq Adnan
Age: 25
Gender:
Appearance:
He's never seen without the trademark white mask he wears. Usually he wears an emerald cloak over muggle clothing (i.e., a green jacket and pants, with the hood up).
Minus a jacket, Sadiq has stubble (trimmed stubble, thank you very much), dark brown hair, with two separated curls at the nape of his neck.
Personality:
An enigma at best, Sadiq usually keeps to himself, alone in his cabin. The only times he comes out are to tend to some of the animals outside, or drag students out of the Forbidden forest.
Upon first meeting he doesn't exactly talk excessively if he's just met somebody. However, after getting to know him a little better (good luck with that), he's vulgar (sometimes), blunt (all the time) and he has informal, odd way of talking. His accent doesn’t make it any better to understand him, but he tries.
Overall, he’s not a particularly rude person and can deal with anyone unless
1)You’re Greek.
2)You’re a student who decided to take a little trip through the Forbidden Forest.
Just a forewarning.

Writing Sample:
Eleven o'clock.
Just in time for a drink or two, then bed...
His sneak o' scope (rigged to have a longer range of detection) set off, lighting up, whistling, and spinning around to let him know that there was somebody or something outside up to no good. More likely than not, there was a kid wandering around in the Forest, trying to poke their head into things that they shouldn't.
Grabbing his cloak from the stand, and a lamp, he set out of his cabin, going through the forest, looking for the troublemaker. Within minutes, he found a group of kids - first years, what do you know - staring at him like deer caught in headlights.
"Y'know yer not s'possed to be out here, right?"
One of them nodded.
"Y'also know that yer gonna get deducted points from yer houses if y'get caught goin' back to the castle, yeah?"
All three of them nodded.
"Y'also know that there's a werewolf roamin' free around the forest?"
He pointed up to the moon; lo and behold, it was full.
One let out a squeak, another ran past the both of them, scared the most, and Sadiq just laughed.
All in a day's work.
