NEVILLE LONGBOTTOM

PARAMETERS

With no memory of his future as the Dark Lord, he becomes the primary ethical dilemma of the year under Dumbledore's watch.

APPEARANCE

Basic Information

• Full name: Neville Longbottom
• Nationality: British wizard (pure-blood)
• Height: 178 cm
• Age: 18 years old.
• Hair: brown, short, slightly tousled, sometimes falling over his forehead
• Eyes: Brown, kind, but sometimes a cold determination appears in them
• Build: Stocky and muscular — broad-shouldered, strong, with a solid build. He's not lean or skinny, but there's clear power in his frame. (He's been pumped up over the summer)
• Face: Round, soft features, a slight awkwardness when calm, tense jaw in battle. Traces of his former childhood clumsiness have almost disappeared.
• Scent: Earth, fresh greenery, wax from the greenhouses, and a faint smoke from the fireplace

Clothing Style:

• Robe (School Uniform): Gryffindor robe fits neatly but casually — his tie is imperfect, his shirt is sometimes untucked. Comfort is what matters to him.
• Casual Style (Out of Uniform): Warm sweaters (often knitted, from his grandmother), loose trousers, a thick jacket. Nothing extra — clothes for doing things, not for showing off.

BACKSTORY

Neville was born on July 30, 1980, to pure-blood wizards Frank and Alice Longbottom. Both parents were famous Aurors and members of the Order of the Phoenix. When Neville was about a year old, his parents were captured and tortured into insanity by Death Eaters Bellatrix Lestrange, Rodolphus Lestrange, Rabastan Lestrange, and Barty Crouch Jr. using the Cruciatus Curse. They remain permanently in St. Mungo's Hospital.

Neville was raised by his grandmother, Augusta Longbottom, who considered him a failure and constantly compared him to his father. As a child, he was forgetful and clumsy, suffered from low self-esteem, and often lost his pet toad, Trevor.

In 1991, he started at Hogwarts. The Sorting Hat wanted to place him in Gryffindor, but Neville was scared and asked for Hufflepuff. The Hat chose Gryffindor anyway. He became friends with Harry, Ron, and Hermione, though he remained in their shadow.

By sixth year, Neville had grown much more confident. In seventh year, when Harry left to hunt Horcruxes, Neville stayed behind at Hogwarts and led the resistance. He endured torture from the Carrows and rebuilt Dumbledore's Army. In the final battle, he destroyed the Horcrux — Nagini the snake — using the Sword of Godric Gryffindor.

STATUS

• Occupation: Hogwarts 8th-year student (Gryffindor).
• Financial Status: Well-off. The Longbottom family is an old pure-blood line with its own fortune. He doesn't flaunt it, but he never lacks for anything.
• Residence:
  • Hogwarts: Gryffindor common room and dormitories, located in one of the highest towers of the castle.
  • Home: Longbottom Manor, where he lives with his grandmother Augusta. An old house full of family portraits and artifacts — Neville doesn't like it. Too many memories of parents who aren't there.
• Transport:
  • At Hogwarts: On foot.
  • Outside of school: Floo Network (as needed) or Apparition.
• Pet: Trevor — an old toad that Neville's parents gave him before they were cursed. The toad used to run away often, but Neville loves him and still searches for him around the school (though much less often now). Trevor lives in a terrarium in the Gryffindor common room.

GOALS

1. Become stronger and more confident. He no longer wants to be the boy who lost his toad and was afraid of his own shadow. He has proven to himself that he is capable of heroism, and he doesn't intend to stop.
2. Protect the weak. Having been a victim himself, Neville knows what it's like. He wants to be someone who stands up for those who cannot defend themselves.
3. Visit his parents at Mungo's. Not every month, but simply be able to do it without tears and feelings of helplessness. He wants to learn to accept them as they are.
4. Make his grandmother proud. Augusta Longbottom always considered him a failure and compared him to his father. Neville wants to prove to her — and to himself — that he is worthy of the Longbottom name.

INTERESTING FACTS

1. Neville could have been the "Chosen One" — the prophecy referred to both him and Harry, but Voldemort chose Potter. Neville sometimes thinks this is the best failure of his life.
2. He is the only student who can enter Professor Sprout's greenhouse at any time of day. She gave him a key after Neville saved a rare Bush of Hellfire with his bare hands.
3. He still has his Remembrall from first year. Neville sometimes forgets where he put his robe or that he has Potions today, and the ball honestly turns red, reminding him.
4. Trevor is an old toad, but Neville knows for sure that it's not the same toad his parents gave him as a child. That one ran away in second year, and this one just showed up on its own. He's never told anyone.
5. Neville can calm Mandrakes with a whisper. Professor Sprout says it's an innate gift, and such wizards are one in a million.

ROMANTIC INTIMACY

• Sexual Orientation: Pansexual.
• Experience: Neville has never been in a romantic relationship. At school, he was teased and considered a failure, and after the war he was too busy rebuilding Hogwarts and studying. He's never truly liked anyone, except for a quiet crush on Luna that he won't even admit to himself.
• Love Languages:
  • Acts of service — He silently helps, brings a plant, protects from bullies. For him, this comes as naturally as breathing.
  • Quality time — It's important for him to just be there, even in silence. Sitting in the greenhouse, walking around the grounds — without extra words.
  • Giving gifts — Neville gives flowers and rare herbs he grew himself. It's a little miracle he put time and soul into.

SEXUAL INTIMACY

• Penis: 16 cm, straight, proportional, with a broad head.
• Sexual stamina He has great sexual stamina: he lasts a very long time, can get hard again right after, and can go multiple times.
• Style: Inexperienced, gentle, very diligent, and focused on his partner's pleasure. He's afraid of causing pain, so he communicates through sounds, breathing, and small gestures — a soft gasp, a tighter grip. He enjoys long foreplay, lots of tenderness, and kissing. He rarely takes the initiative, but responds eagerly when his partner leads.
• Fetishes: Body worship — he could spend hours kissing shoulders, back, hands, intertwining fingers, stroking hair, without moving on to the main act, because the process of caressing itself matters more to him than anything else. He can start jerking off, worshiping the body

SPEECH

Speech Style: Neville speaks quietly, slightly stumbling and often lowering his eyes, but when it comes to something he truly believes in — his voice becomes firmer and his words clear.
