Anything Special
Personality
He’s a very personable and is friendly, but tends to be very shrewd about who he claims as friends. He often “tests” people to see how loyal and trustworthy they are. While he’s smart he doesn’t go out of his way to be helpful to those who aren’t. He sometimes gets into these random spurts of competitiveness just so he can put other kid’s efforts down. He’s rather capricious, and prefers to stray or wander away from what what’s expected of him. He’s very devious and is always coming up with different ways to deal with people who have slighted him in some way. He’s highly imaginative with the punishments he comes up with, so getting on his bad side isn’t very wise.
He can be somewhat mocking in a pleasant sort of way. He rarely ever raises his voice and often times kids don’t realize he’s mocking them until much later. He’s a smooth talker and tends to come across as really charming, despite his scheming ways.
He’s something of a rebel and highly detests rules, though he’s not about to break them where he can be noticed. When he’s caught in the act of breaking one, he’s polite and will submit to the authority figure without argument. He can be rather arrogant, especially towards people who agree with him too readily and don’t have much of a backbone.
Habits: Shaking his bangs out of his eyes , sticking his hands in the back pockets of his pants.
Hobbies: Debating, Fencing, Horse Back Riding, Exploring, Reading.
Wealth: Rich, his father is a Duke and a millionaire. Though he doesn't really let many people know this.
Favorite Things: Staying active, horses, Football, Geneology, History, Mysteries, The Sherlock Holmes mysteries, Messing around with other kids, controversy.

Relationship with Family
He has next to no relationship with his mother, mostly due to her aversion to being a mother and getting to know him. He doesn’t really care that he doesn’t know her and doesn’t even bother with reading the letters she sends him once a year. She left him and his father when he was five years old. He rather resents her for leaving, but doesn't let anyone know.
He’s super close to his father and they spend a lot of time together whether it’s fencing, horse back riding, or just studying and working on the Alvesleben ancestry tree. His father likes to collect new stories and information about their family line and will share it with his son. Lothar finds it rather interesting that despite their being a Pureblood family; the Alvesleben line has as many transgressions if not more than a mixed blood family.
He’s become rather close friends with his Cousin Louvenia; who moved in with him and his father when her parents were killed when she was 8. They both enjoy exploring the massive mansion that they live in most of the year. They’ve been super competitive when it comes to their private lessons together, most times its’ neck to neck; which they both find extremely satisfying.
Lothar has his own House Elf that is goes by the name Nory. She’s a funny thing, while she makes a lot of mistakes when it comes to cleaning clothes; Lothar is rather easy on her. She punishes herself harsher than he ever would, which he finds amusing at times but mostly disturbing.
There are three other House Elves that serve the Alvesleben family: Fancy, who serves Louvenia; Octavius and Percy who serve his father.
Parents
• Mother- Maris (Bundt) Alvesleben, Pure blood, Ravenclaw, 33 She’s a very temperamental, volatile and high strung individual. She’s hard to get along with, probably why she didn’t stay very long with her husband. She’s rather smug about the fact that Lothar was put into her House.
• Father - Alesander Alvesleben II, Pureblood, Duke/Wizard, Slytherine, 34.
He’s a debonair type of fellow, very suave and a sort of lady's man. Despite he and his wife separating for so many years, he hasn't really put his heart into finding someone new. Perhaps when they decide to divorce he may seek a new companion. He tries to always put his son first, when his duties as a Duke don't take all his attention.

Best Friend(s): His Cousin Louvenia
Anything Special:
History Overall: Born on February 17th in Dortmund Germany to a Royal; Alesander Alvesleben, and Maris Bundt; a pureblood witch of Swedish Descent; Lothar was born into a family that had high expectations and goals for him. This changed when his his bright blonde hair darkened to a golden brown withing four months of being born, and his eyes turned from bright cerulean blue to a muddy brown.
His Grandparents on his mother's side were completely shocked and horrified with his transformation, not to mention very disappointed. His mother, a blond haired blue eyed Swede was rather infuriated and blamed it on her husband. She even took to referring to him as the "Mud Monster" and refused to have anything with him, despite his Pure blood status. She separated from Alesander shortly after and had little to no contact with her son after that.
Thankfully his father wasn't as shallow as the rest of the family and took great care in raising his son to not be as stuck up or concerned with looks. Having been forced into an arranged marriage, Alesander wanted to divorce her immediately. However there was a contract that he had signed that prevented him from doing so. He had no wish to remain married to a woman that was so callous, so was rather glad when she agreed to live apart from him and not bother him or their son. Four months later she was out of their lives and cozing up to a much blonder count.
Oddly, Alesander's own parents didn't care that Lothar wasn't blonde or blue eyed and made sure that they were a part of Lothar's life. They would visit him often and spend a great deal of time with him when his father had work that took him out of town. When Alesander had to move in with his Great Uncle and help him with the Dukey, they moved in to help as well. His Great Uncle had no family of his own and was getting on in age. The addition of a gurgling happy 14 month old brought a sudden youth back into the older man. He loved to spoil Lothar as often as he could, despite Alesander's protests. His own parent's weren't much better.
It was at Lestharo's mansion where Lothar first became exposed to magic from several smitten House Elves, Fancy and Nory, the two female House Elves first used their magic to soothe him to sleep and to entertain him when he was fussy. Alesander had no idea what was going on until he walked in on them one night when they were making an elaborate light show over his crib to put him to sleep.
Seeing how enthralled his son was, Alesander decided it would be a good idea to have his son grow up seeing it and growing used to it. That way it wouldn't be such a shock later on when he discovered it. Bye the time Lothar was four, seeing magic was as common to him as breathing. It still fascinated him however..and he's always wanted to do it.
His childhood didn't change much from before; though his father had many more responsiblities having been named Duke of his region of Germany. Lothar was often left to his own devices, which meant he was spending his time exploring the mansion, spying on guest, and playing pranks on the House Elves. Until the House Elves had enough and brought his shennanigans to the attention of his father.
His father decided it was time his five year old start schooling and hired a tutor to start instructing him in the finer arts of life. Lothar hated this change, but he actually took a liking to learning and found out that it came rather easily to him. He started reading everything he could get his hands on, and discovered that with the art of proper etiquette came the art of insulting others but with a finesse to it.
He took up horsemanship and fencing when he got older, and thrived in both of them. He loved competing and showing other kids how it was done properly. Of course, he had more opportunities to practice so he was always a little better than others. And having exceptional teachers that paid him their full attention didn't hurt either.
Sadness struck Lothar and his father when the elderly Lestharo passed away in his sleep. They had seen it coming for a few years, as he had been growing weaker and slower and wasn't able to function properly. It was somewhat of a relief that he had died in his sleep and hadn't suffered when he went. It was a big surprise however when they found his will and discovered that he had left everything he had owned to them. There was millions in pounds in Gringotts, as well as jewels, swords and all manner of things that were worth a great deal of money. It was a surprise to find that Lestharo had owned four castles; especially since they had lived in the one mansion for so long.
It was around this time that his cousin Louvenia came to live with them after horrible deaths of her parents. Lothar had no idea how to act around a girl, and didn't really know how to treat her. He learned pretty fast that she was just as competitive and able to surpass him in a lot of areas. While he won't say it he admires and respects her for her focus and tenacity. He sometimes wishes he were more like her.
When he turned eleven he wasn't surprised to get a letter from Hogwarts inviting him to the school. His father had told him stories all about the place and how much fun it would be. He was rather excited about being able to go to a new place and get to learn new things that his father and teachers had hinted at for years.
He was overjoyed when his father decided that it was time they travel and whisked him and his cousin off to England so they could get to know the place better before they went there for school. They even got a private tour of the school much to his delight. It was an eye opener for him and he couldn't help but get pumped up for the start of the school year. Though he hoped that his cousin would also get a letter so they could go together. It just wouldn't be the same with out her.
MISCELLANEOUS
The Sorting:
Lothar ignored the curious glances of the other first years as he waited impatiently to be called up to be sorted, Why was his choice to only color the tips of his hair so odd? he thought it was much more strange that there was a girl with long purple hair or the boy with the bright sky blue hair standing in front of him. though he could be wrong, perhaps they had been born that way. He had heard that there were kids from magicking families that were born with odd colored hair or eyes.
He was actually a bit surprised that here weren't more kids with strange colored hair among the first years. Then again most ff them probably hadn't been raised in magicking communities like he had. He was rather thankful for that, especially for having already mastered a few spells others would just be learning.
He flinched slightly when a hand touched his shoulder and he turned with a slight frown on his face. His frown changed to a smirk when he saw his cousin Louvenia had finally caught up with him. "Done with all your drooling Lou?"
Louvenia's bright blues narrowed behind her wire rimmed glasses. "I wasn't drooling, I was merely basking in the wonders Hogwart's is filled with."
"If you say so," Lothar returned and leaned back on her shoulder ever so slightly. "I Imagine we'll both end up sorted in Ravenclaw. What's your prediction?"
His cousin pushed him off of her with an annoyed snort.
"Don't be using me like a wall Lot! There is no need for a prediction, seeing as we are both the studious types it's more than 99 percent likely that the hat will simply cry out 'Ravenclaw' the second it hits our heads."
Lothar actually agreed with her assessment, though he partially hoped he might get into his father's house, Slytherin. He would rather not have anything in common with his mother if he could help it. However it would be quite fun to team up with is cousin and show the other Ravenclaws just how one got top marks. He had no doubt that the Ravenclaw House would rack up points for having them in it.
He was pulled out of his thoughts when his name was called out, "Alvesleben, Lothar Aleksi." With a frown he made his way up to the professor and corrected her. "It's LOW-Thar, not Lot Hair." Then with a low sigh he hopped up onto the stool. Why did everyone pronounce it the wrong way? He wondered.
"Maybe because you have 'lots of hair' for a boy." the hat cackled as it settled firmly onto his head.
"Please just get on with it." Lothar retorted rather annoyed by the stupid joke. He had heard that one a million times before.
"As you wish," the hat replied and began to search the boy's mind.
"Well now you're the ambitious type and quite cunning as well. If you weren't so focused on book learning and showing up others in scholarly pursuits you would make a great Slytherin."
Lothar had a momentary feeling of annoyance towards his past teachers and his cousin Louvenia. If it wasn't for them he might have been able to follow in his father's footsteps instead of his mother's. Still..at least he'd be able to show up the other students, that pretty much made up for the disappointment.
"Ravenclaw!" the old hat crowed.
With a cocky grin, Lother strutted his way across the floor to take a seat at the table that was cheering for him.
