GOALS & DREAMS: As a young boy, James wanted nothing more to become a famous Quidditch player and win the Quidditch World Cup. However, he grew out of this dream at the ripe age of about eleven, about the time he decided that he would not enjoy the training surrounding a famous Quidditch player. Now he's more concerned with doing the things he wants to do before he dies - like getting married and having a family. Thought he may not admit it, James is an old softie - he wants nothing more than to find the love of his life and settle down with her and raise a family. He'd also like to find a job he'd like to keep for more than a couple of months. Not dying before that can happen would also be swell.
FEARS: The thing that James most fears is losing his family. Even now that he is all grown up and living on his own, he's still dependent on his family. He's a momma's boy, and the worst would be losing his mother. He's afraid of death and dying too soon. He's afraid of not getting to do the things he wants to do before he dies. James also has a lasting fear of cats and owls from traumatic events as a child. Really, when you're attacked by the family cat at the age of six and it almost takes your eyeball out, there's no way you're going to recover from that. Getting nicked repeatedly by the family owl multiple times after that doesn't really help the matter. Animals apparently don't like James.
STRENGTHS: James prides himself on being an excellent listener. You talk, he listens, it is as simple as that. There is something about James' presence that makes most people seem to find him a trustworthy confidant. Perhaps it's the fact that all he does is listen that makes him so easy to talk to - he doesn't judge or try to give you advice. He just listens and lets you vent. He's also been told he's charismatic, whatever that means.
WEAKNESSES: While people have no problem opening up to him, James has a serious problem opening up to other people. He just has problems talking to people he doesn't know. Truthfully, he doesn't feel the need to talk to people he doesn't know. There are select few people that can have a successful conversation, and those people can easily say that they know James the best. Even his family members get frustrated with James. He's very difficult to get a conversation going with.
PERSONALITY: James is confident, quiet and fiercely loyal. He believes in himself and his family, trusting them to the point where very few others have been able to. He is not a shy being, he just has a tendency not to say much. He keeps his mouth closed most of the time, preferring to take the listening role in a conversation. He tends to be a little bit passive aggressive, but he stands up for himself when he needs to. He's a pretty simple guy to understand, most people just haven't interested James enough to let them in.

HISTORY: When you're growing up as the oldest son of Harry Potter, there are a few things that could happen to you - you could get that attitude that makes you seem like you don't give a shit, but really you are basking in the glory and popularity of it. You could turn bitter, sick and tired of the pretend friends who really only like you because you're the son of a famous wizard. Or, you could turn out like James did: not really bitter, but not really seeing the incentive to make friends with fake people who don't really care. He is more than satisfied with being with his brothers and sisters and all his cousins. There's enough of them for a small army, after all.
James grew up in Godric's Hollow, a short jaunt away from the house where his paternal grandparents had once lived. Being the oldest of five other siblings, James always felt over protective of his family. His sisters were never let out of his watchful eye, his brothers were never left unaided. Life was good for the young James - he was close with his siblings and cousins, laughing easily and playing harmless pranks on each other. He was a lot more carefree and talkative as a young boy.
Hogwarts came at eleven, and James could easily say that they were the best seven years of his life. It was tough at first, he felt weird being away from his parents and his siblings. He was the oldest then, the only one of them at Hogwarts, save for a couple of cousins. The boy wrote home almost everyday, checking up on his younger siblings and telling his mother stories of his day to day life. Things got better when little brother Albus joined him at school, and better yet when the other four trouped in as well.
Now that he's been out of school for a while, he's learned one thing - he should have paid more attention in class, found something that really interested him rather than him sitting around, complaining about the work and not really caring. He's been working odd jobs since then, doing little things to keep his living comfortable. Nothing has caught his liking, though. And now he's regretting not choosing a career path - even though with the eminent war, there wouldn't be much need for a career at this point.
