Character Information Name: Seth Bryant MacCarthy LJ Username: sethsapyro House: Gryffindor Age/Year: 17/7th Birthdate: December 15th
Bloodline: Muggleborn Heritage: Irish-British Personal History: Growing up, Seth was the youngest of 4 boys in the MacCarthy family - Trevor (5 years older), Ian (3 years older), Hayden(1 year older), and then Seth, the baby of the family. He never knew his mother as she died from breast cancer shortly after Seth turned three. With their father constantly off working, the boys were left to basically fend for themselves. They taught each other when they weren't in school, they fed each other, and they helped each other with anything, but most importantly they wreaked havoc together. Not having a mother to raise them and groom them, a father constantly off at work, and their extended family living in Britain (the MacCarthy's lived in Tramore, Ireland), the brothers tended to be brought home by either a neighbor or the police.
The girls in the neighborhood they lived in were afraid to play outside when the MacCarthy brothers were out there, for fear of having their dolls' heads popped off or their tea sets smashed on the ground. There wasn't a single group of kids that could defeat the MacCarthy brothers and they were the toughest, most feared group of kids in the town until the four Donnelly sisters and their father moved in nextdoor when Seth was 5. The brothers were confident that these girls wouldn't be a problem and they could easily make some pretty little servants for their new treehouse in their backyard. They were quickly proven wrong though.
The girls were anything but easy to defeat. The oldest girl was a year younger than Trevor, the second girl was a year younger than Ian, the third was the same age as Hayden, and the youngest was the same age as Seth. Each boy picked on the girl that was closest to their age and tried their hardest to ruin their lives. What goes around, comes around though. If the girls woke up with ants in their beds and snakes in their dressers, the boys would wake up with a flaming bag of dog poo at the end of their bed or on their nightstand. It was an ongoing fight between the rival sets of siblings and it still goes on today.
See, the only MacCarthy in the family to go to Hogwarts was Seth. He was expected to go to muggle school for the rest of his years like his brothers and get a good muggle education but that quickly changed when Seth received his letter for Hogwarts. Nobody had expected it or known what it meant but his brothers supported him nonetheless - he was their baby brother and so what if they lost one of their own? The only downfall to Seth going off to Hogwarts was that the same day he had gotten his letter, the youngest Donnelly sister received hers too. Seth was expected to terrorize her with magic now too, thanks to his brothers encouragement.
And Seth did just that and more. He terrorizes most of Hogwarts, setting things on fire, picking fights, and being a complete pig towards women. Now, when it comes to girls and women, Seth has a bit of a weird story behind that. Not only is he a bit angry that he couldn't meet his mother so it creates some confusion in him about how to act towards girls, but that added onto watching his brothers handle women (which is basically how he does) and the incident with Lucy's (the youngest Donnelly girl next door) Barbie doll, and you get what Seth is today.

It happened when the two of them were each 9 years old. She was playing with her Barbie dolls outside in her backyard a Sunday afternoon, and her father had called her inside to get some lunch. Seth had been watching her from the treefort as she dressed up the dolls and played 'Family,' and was fully determined to go over there and smash her doll and pop the head off when her father had called her inside. The only problem was that when she'd gone in, she hadn't finished dressing both of her dolls - one had a pair of heels on, sunglasses, and a purse in one hand and the other doll had a pair of sneakers and a cowgirl hat on. His foot raised and Seth was about to smash them but he was almost mesmerized by them. His little mind couldn't help but wonder if girls really looked like that. So Seth picked one up and started to trace over the curves and the breasts, until he had fully felt-up Barbie. Since then, he's done pretty much the same thing to almost all girls that have curves and are beautiful.
When he went off to Hogwarts, Seth was sorted into Gryffindor and now he's in his 7th year. The youngest Donnelly girl, Lucy, was also sorted into Gryffindor and since the time they got their letters, the two have done nothing but fight even more. Nobody at Hogwarts fully understands the fight or why it happens but nobody really even tried to understand Seth anymore, so the fight is a bit pointless to attempt to understand.
Personality: Seth is what one could consider a 'bad egg.' He doesn't like to listen to any type of authority and loves to make trouble. Seth's followed in the footsteps of all previous pranksters at Hogwarts and created a few tricks as well. He doesn't have many friends and the ones that he does are a very close and loyal group of friends. Most students are afraid of Seth but even though he may have a very rough exterior personality and comes off as a very mean person that has nothing better to do but be mean, he can actually be quite a charming young man.
It's likely that you'll find Seth smoking pot or gillyweed in between classes, making him often a bit loopy but he's gotten to the point where he has some control over himself while on a high. He also likes to drink a bit but that's something that he only does at parties or on the weekends sometimes.
Seth's a hands-on kind of guy. He enjoys groping girls and snogging in the broom cupboards. Sexual innuendos are most likely to pop up in a conversation with him and he's very open about all sexuality. It's very rare for Seth to have just one girlfriend - either he has many, or is a free-bird.
In his small inner-circle of friends, Seth is very loyal to them as though they were his siblings. He's an average student in his classes and the only thing that's really holding him back from being an incredibly smart kid is the gillyweed and Mary-Jane. Seth has a photographic memory and can often remember things to a T that others would normally forget.
When it comes to picking on the younger years, Seth isn't one that goes out just to relieve some anger on one of the poor things. Unless they're being stupid and 'bring it on themselves' or they piss him off some way, he won't bother with them. As a matter of fact, most of the time he only picks fights with people who anger him an incredible amount. If he sees someone picking on a younger year, he's most likely the one that saves the younger year and then when they go to thank him, scares them away. He has to keep up appearances, after all.
Physical Description: Seth has curly brown hair and dark green eyes that are almost brown. He stands at an imposing 6' 6" and weighs anywhere between 180 and 200lbs. Seth is neither muscle-man, nor a 'shrimp.' He has enough muscle mass to throw a relatively good punch and take one too. Seth can grow facial hair but he finds it stupid and ugly, so he prefers to shave.
