Name: Lawson “Law” Arthur Weasley

House: Gryffindor

Parents: Serena and Fred Weasley

Age: 17

Looks: The traditional red hair of the Weasley family spikes up from his head, but he has deep blue eyes, unlike his twin. That very much surprised his family; otherwise, they are exactly identical. With a square chin and strong features, Law is cute but definitely no pretty boy. He also dresses in flashier, bolder color and style than his brother.

Personality: Outgoing, jovial, and bright, Law devotes much more time to entertaining himself and his schoolmates than worrying about the future. Following in the footsteps of his father and uncle, he abhors the rules and at least bends those that can’t be broken.

History: Born twenty-seven minutes before his fraternal twin brother Benson, Law grew up in a large house that had a connecting door and shared porch in common with his Uncle George’s, and just down the street from the shop. Their life was a rowdy, boisterous one, full of fun and confusion. Magic whizzed about all the time, and when it didn’t, practical jokes did. Suffice it to say their weren’t exactly thought of fondly in the neighborhood, especially considering their magic showed itself in odd ways, like a sudden switch of the sugar and salt in a nearby abode. In fact, all four of the cousins (Ben, Law, Emily, and Juliet) created a secret language all their own that confounded their parents and families. They still occasionally speak in that language, but have grown mostly out of it as they grow older. They graciously didn't speak in this language when their friend Kiley was visiting, as she could never get the hang of it.

Lawson always enjoyed working in their family shop, and is close with both his father and uncle George. They taught him everything they knew about being a prankster, and what he didn’t learn from them he invented himself. Fun-loving and smart, Law is a great favorite of the customers.

He and Lawson went to Hogwarts at ten, two years before their younger cousins, and at the same time as their cousins Liza Beth and Charlie. They were all sorted into Gryffindor, where they routinely pull pranks with their close friend Xavier Tonks-Lupin, son of Remus and Nymphadora. In fact, they spend much of their time at Hogwarts trying to outdo the reputations their father and uncle left behind

While he is very intelligent, Law is not especially good at school. He has a hard time with almost all of his classes, excluding transfiguration. Law is secretly Professor McGonagall’s favorite student, but she rides him hard to make sure he reaches his full potential. While he is a member of the Defense Against the Dark Arts club, he is not their star pupil.

Other: Lawson has had a crush on Kiley Black since she arrived at Hogwarts, two years after him. He is very vocal about his crush, but has no idea about the feelings of either Ben or Kiley, who keeps rejecting him.
