<br>Boggart: Failing in life <br>Mirror of Erised: To become successful and prestigious. <br>Patronus: Jackals have long been associated with guile and deceit. The Egyptian god of the dead, Anubis, was known for having the head of a jackal, and as many other death gods, was a cunning trickster. Ari is no different, and his golden jackal patronus is proof enough for most. <br>Personality: Ari's father, Yakov, was always a very successful man. He was a shrewd politician and despite never verbalizing his wishes for his son, the expectations were clear. Ari was always expected to do well and be successful in life. Just like most Jewish parents, instead of chastising his children Yakov would lay a great deal of guilt on them, the idea of Jewish parents guilt-tripping their kids is definitely no stereotype. Even though the pressure was never actually verbalized, Ari grew up knowing his father's expectations and resenting him slightly for them. Yet at the same time, Ari idolized his father, and this led to his driven nature.<br><br> Despite his almost aggressive ambition, Ari has always been able to charm practically anyone he comes into contact with. He can easily socialize with all different types of people, but usually chooses to be alone. Because of his outwardly cold demeanor most people shy away from him, which is exactly how he wants it. Unlike most Slytherins, Ari does not have an automatic hatred for Gryffindors. A handful of Gryffindors (especially his little sister) share many traits with Slytherins, namely a desire to succeed and strength of character. Hufflepuffs on the other hand are the epitome of everything he despises (except for their loyalty, he appreciates that) and Ari usually refuses to associate with them unless absolutely necessary.<br><br> While he does have a sense of right and wrong, his actions often say otherwise. Ari is extremely calculating and charismatic when he chooses to be, but also very loyal. The few friends he has sometimes joke that he could have been a Gryffindor (and if they’re feeling brave they say Hufflepuff). Despite his desire to become successful, he would never betray a friend's trust. Everyone else is fair game though. That being said, Ari has very few people he would actually consider friends. He does not trust people easily, but once someone has gained his trust they are able to see a completely different side of him, the friendly and warm side he usually just reserves for his sister. <br><br> Though he is by no means a virgin, Ari rarely dates. It's not like girls haven't tried, but most of them are weak girls that would only ever be good for one night in his mind. He only respects people who are strong, independent, and smart. People who know who they are and what they want out of life. And his girlfriend Anya is definitely that. </div><div style="width:480px;font-family: 'IM Fell DW Pica SC'; color: #000; font-size:16px; font-weight:400; text-align: justify; padding:15px; padding-top:5px; height:12px; margin-bottom:0px;"><br>History</div> <div style="padding: 5px; padding-top: 5px; width:450px; color: #393939; font-family: IM Fell DW Pica SC; overflow-y: auto; text-align:justify; font-size:14px; line-height:15px; height::100px; "> <br>Parents: Yakov Avram Lanuel | 52 | pureblood | Israeli Minister of Magic | fomer Ravenclaw<br> Claire-Marie Lanuel | Healer | 49 | Bouxbatons graduate <br>Siblings: Dinah Naomi Lanuel | thirteen | third year Gryffindor <br>Other: none <br>History: Claire-Marie Benoit was an esteemed healer in France for over ten years. By the time she was thirty, she had made a name for herself and was the most sought after witch in all of France. Especially since she was the only child of Antoine and Ann-Marie Benoit - one of the most wealthy and prominent pureblood families in France at the time. Even with all of the suitors, she had never felt any of them were [for lack of a better word] worthy of her time. And she was content to stay single until she met Yakov Lanuel. Yakov was the Israeli ministry of magic ambassador to France, and they both fell in love minute they met. Only a few years later, they were married and Claire (she dropped the second part of her name when she moved to Israel with Yakov) was pregnant with Ari.<br><br> Ari lived a fairly comfortable life, sure he had enormous pressure raining down on him because of his father, but he never wanted for anything. Both his parents had been independently wealthy and his mother's parents spoiled both Ari and his sister mercilessly. But when Ari grew up more and began attending a wizard primary school (to learn basic things like arithmetic, how to read and write in both Hebrew and English, and Jewish history and customs) he soon realized that even though his father was a kind man, he was in a position of power and there were people who would do almost anything to get that power.<br><br> Needless to say, Ari quickly learned not to trust people easily and to remain composed and distant at all times, except of course with his family and few friends. His distrust of others grew much greater when his father became the minister of magic during his first year of Hogwarts. Nearly every Slytherin tried to kiss up to him, as if getting into his good graces would elevate their status. All of their efforts were met with nothing but disdain. <br><br> Ari's paternal grandparents had been trying to fix him up with a "nice Jewish girl" as they put it practically since he was born. This is, in part, his father's fault for marrying Claire, who was not only a foreigner but when they met she was a Catholic. To a religious Jew, marrying outside the clan (to someone of any non-Jewish faith) is even more taboo than a pureblood wizard from a high society family marrying a muggle. It just isn't done. The only reason they allowed the marriage was because she converted to Judaism and began following their orthodox rules, but as the years went on Yakov and Claire began practicing their faith less and eventually joined a reformed synagogue. His parents were scandalized by this, and almost refused to acknowledge Ari as a grandson.<br><br> Eventually though, they put their differences aside and became a family again. But that did not mean that Yakov's parents would allow Ari to marry a gentile, and they had been very vocal (at least to Yakov) about their position. They even went so far as to seek out eligible women for Ari to marry. Unfortunately for them, Ari hated every one of those girls and they were forced to cease their search. Until he began dating Anya. They had been outraged by that and forced the two to break up. Unfortunately, Ari had not been brave enough to stand up to them at the time, but he made his choice very clear after he and Anya got back together. </div><div style="width:480px;font-family: 'IM Fell DW Pica SC'; color: #000; font-size:16px; font-weight:400; text-align: justify; padding:15px; padding-top:5px; height:12px; margin-bottom:0px;"><br>Out of Character</div> <div style="padding: 0px; padding-top: 0px; width:450px; color: #393939; font-family: IM Fell DW Pica SC; overflow-y: auto; text-align:justify; font-size:14px; line-height:15px; height::100px; "> <br>Role Play Experience: Eight years, ish.
