Character Background/History: Adrian is the second oldest of five children. His older sister recently completed her seventh year at Hogwarts and is living on her own in Hogsmeade, while only one of his younger siblings is yet old enough to attend. He comes from a family of Slytherclaws, and it was a toss up as to whether he’d follow his father and end up a Slytherin, or follow his mother and be in Ravenclaw. His mother’s side won out, which seemed only fair given that he’d always been closer to her. Recently the Devlin family has run into some trouble, Adrian’s mother having been locked up in a secure ward within St. Mungo’s for the criminally insane. His father has refused to talk much about it, though Adrian has a sneaking suspicion that his father knows far more about why and how she got there than he lets on. Since his mother was institutionalized the Devlin’s governess has become an even more prominent member of the household, a point which has also raised Adrian’s suspicions.
