DEATH THE KID
Kid is very intelligent, analytical, and precise; a genius of sorts. He is determined to bring forth a perfect world, with an absolute balance of good and evil, and is often described as the perfect boy. However, in his search for perfection, he became consumed by it, developing OCD and an obsession with bilateral symmetry. In Kid's mind, symmetry is the ultimate form of perfection and he finds anything symmetrical beautiful; even his favorite number being 8 because of its symmetry. Conversely, when he sees things that AREN'T symmetrical, he expresses disgust at it, trying to destroy it, or even becoming physically ill at the sight of it. He isn't capable of destroying anything symmetrical, and if he does by chance, he gets massively depressed. This poses a problem as he has three white stripes on the left side of his head, thus he HIMSELF isn't symmetrical.
Other than that, Kid can be described as having a strict sense of morals, being very stubborn/set in his ways (especially concerning symmetry) as well as being rather spoiled, due to being raised in a privileged household. But he is loyal to his friends, (even though some of their messy ways disgust him at times) always willing to help them when they're in need...unless something symmetry related distracts him or halts him, no matter the importance of the situation.

BACKGROUND
Kid's legend began in the 12 century background starts before he was even born. His father was an extremely ruthless and formidable Auror named Death, so talented and indiscriminate at dispatching dark wizards that his fellows among the wizarding community began to refer to him as Shinigami-sama, or the Grim Reaper. Death remained a harsh executioner of evil wizards until he met and fell in love with Kid's mother, settling down in the all wizarding town of Death City in Nevada, in the U.S. Soon after, Kid was born, and the joys of parenthood softened Shinigami-sama into a much more lax and laid back person, going from his prior frightening speech to a playful sing song.
The young Kid, ever the enthusiast for defeating evil, happened to tag along on one of his father's missions nearby their mansion without Shinigami-sama's knowledge, and when the dark wizard was attempting to attack Death, Kid got in the way, and though the attack mostly missed him due to Shinigami-sama's quick actions...it had an odd side effect, leaving 3 white stripes on the left side of his head. Shinigami-sama found these stripes cute and so he left them, unknowing of the fact that they would cause Kid major depression in the future. Although it's debatable whether he would have removed them anyway, knowing his laid back nature.
Death the Kid pursued excellence, maintaining excellent skill in magic at a very young age due to home schooling and natural aptitude. He avidly sought knowledge and learning more spells, determined to be perfect and to bring the world into perfect order by becoming the best Auror ever, just as his father had. His already meticulous nature and OCD bloomed into an obsession with perfection, wanting to be wholly flawless in every way imaginable. And this turned to a preoccupation with symmetry, making him refuse holding his wand with one hand, or even using it if it wasn't at an exact center with the line of his body. As inconvenient as this self-handicap was, even despite that, Kid had talent that far exceeded most his age, and his skills far outweighed the awkward requirements that hindered him from using them.
After the incident with the dark wizard, Shinigami-sama decided it was high time to switch careers to something that would have less of a chance of harming his cute son. He switched to a more tame, but very high ranking position in the United States Ministry of Magic, and remains there still, at times reporting to the base for the American Ministry in New York City. On one such occasion, he decided to bring Kid, who'd recently turned 12, along. Finding himself in awe of the perfectly symmetrical architecture of many of the buildings, Kid was left to joyously wander the city.
With some irritation, he was distracted from his reverence by the frightened noises of a man around the corner, and upon looking for the source, he saw a muggle being robbed by two young witches, both of their wands pointed at the man's throat. The taller witch performed a fire spell, singing the man's tie to show she was serious, while the smaller giggled sinisterly; both demanding he empty his pockets. At that moment, Kid stepped in, demanding they halt what they were doing, and the sisters turned around to face him. This proved enough of a distraction for the muggle to run away, causing them to instantly hound on Kid for distracting them, pointing their wands at him next. When he showed no apparent fear of their power, they eventually glared before moving off, leaving Kid to consider chasing and obliviating the muggle before he was to tell anyone what he'd seen.
He next heard screams, and rounding the corner again into a dark and secluded alley, Kid found the two witches who'd just been hassling him being surrounded by five wizards who looked anything but friendly. Instantly casting a leg-locker curse on the nearest wizard, the distraction gave the witches (Patty and Liz) a chance to open an assault themselves. Finding himself working together with the two sisters, Kid marveled on how they worked together, both casting the exact same spells within milliseconds of each other without even indicating to the other, and maintaining perfect symmetry on either side of Kid, intentional or not. Despite the fact that Kid had previously been the ones stopping them, the three of them proved to be a formidable team when working in conjunction with each other, and as the final wizard fell, Kid's mind came to a resolution.
Less than savory wizards out-of-commission, Kid turned toward Liz and Patty to insist that they team up; a pair of sisters with such a symmetrical style too good to pass up--although their asymmetrical appearances drove him mad to no end. One thing lead to another and, after Kid informed his father and the Ministry about what had occurred there, the Thompson Sisters and Kid became a team on that day almost 2 years ago, all residing in Kid's mansion with him. Their positive personalities help cheer him up when he feels depressed, although his spoiled nature and obsession with symmetry does irritate Liz from time to time.
Above all, though, Death the Kid seeks to bring about a perfect world with a perfect balance of good and evil. Although he has been home-schooled his entire life, upon hearing about the death eater attacks on Hogwarts, he demanded that his father enroll him, wanting to assist in whatever way he could, and also gain more skill as a wizard. Thus, after getting approval from Dumbledore, and with both Patty and Liz at his side, Kid entered Hogwarts...and one has to wonder if it'll ever be the same.
