discription: Chase Jackson has brown hair and almost a perfectly round face. It's a bit on the chubby side, but that just adds to his adorableness. Chase has ice blue eyes that can pierce through anyone's guard if he so chooses. Most of the time Chase doesn't smile, but when he does the smile lights up the room. His brown hair is simply gorgeous and Chase likes to let it just kind of do what it wants. Chase isn't one of those insanely skinny people, but he isn't exactly fat. He's extremely muscular from all the drumming and all the tending to animals he does. He likes it that way. He doesn't want to be one of those scrawny people because then he would get picked on like he did from his dad. He likes being strong to make sure that doesn't happen any more. Chase is on the tall side, but isn't a giant or anything like that. He's a little over six foot, though.

personality: Chase is an all around nice guy. He tends to do whatever he can to make the people around him happy. He hates when anyone is sad or upset because of his childhood. He feels like things should be different from what he had and therefore takes it on himself to make sure people are happy. He takes it out on himself if someone he loves or likes isn't happy which can be a bad thing at times.
Drumming tends to be Chase's escape in life and has been since he was ten years old. His drum set is a part of who he is and he doesn't want that to change. He loved who he is, even if in the past he hasn't. He's grown into someone that loves hanging around animals and his friends because it makes him happy and it's been one of the only things to do so throughout his entire life.
Chase loves teaching and is always up for helping students come up with ways to better their education and therefore their life after Hogwarts. Even though Chase knows it would have been cool to take up the opportunity to work with dragons in Romania, he thinks it was for the best that he stayed with Brent and became a teacher. It was his calling.

history: Chase grew up in a house right on the edge of London. He lived with his mother and father for most of his life and never had any brothers or sisters. When he was extremely little, he was sad about it, but as he grew a bit older, he learned that it was probably for the best that there was only one child in the Jackson household.
When he was roughly 6 years old, Chase started showing signs of being a wizard. His mother was a witch, but his dad was a muggle. They fell in love when they both went on vacation to America and they fell in love. Candice, Chase's mother, was afraid if she told Matthew, his father, that she was a witch that it would make him freak out and run away. In a way, she was right. When Chase started showing signs, his mother decided it was time to tell him she was a witch. Matthew freaked out about it and starting drinking, which led to him abusing his family.
Chase was seven the first time his dad raised a hand to him. It started off small. With slaps and shoves. Soon it progressed to choking and slamming against the floor. As Chase grew older he would try to lessen the abuse on his mother by taking more of it on himself. He didn't like how he had to even think about doing that, but it was something Chase knew was right. In the back of his mind, he blamed himself for the things his father did to the both of them.
Candice bought Chase his first drum on his tenth birthday. She gave it to him and told him to go and pound away whenever he got mad or had bad thoughts about anything. He couldn't thank his mom enough for what she gave him. Eventually it became more than just a stress reliever for him. It became his life in a lot of ways and he fell in love with music.
When Chase turned eleven, he got his letter to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. His father didn't want him to go and tried to beat him into staying there and letting his powers slowly fade. Matthew didn't understand that it didn't work like that for any witch or wizard. His mother wasn't going to let him waste his power, however, and found a way to take him shopping and then to Kings Cross Station on the first of September. Even if he had to walk there by himself because his mother couldn't risk taking him and his father being even more pissed off.
As soon as he got on the train, he found an empty compartment and watched out the window at all the students saying goodbye to their parents. He wondered what house he was going to be in. He wanted to be in Gryffindor like his mother was, but he didn't care as long as he wasn't in Slytherin. He didn't think he was brave enough to be in Gryffindor at the time.
Before the train had taken off, a small boy only a year older than he was entered the compartment, asking if he could sit with him. The boy was completely different than Chase. While Chase wished for loving parents to both be there waving him off, the boy was flipping his parents off because he didn't want them to be there. Chase didn't think it was right, but he was more intrigued by the guy as he train ride progressed.
Soon, Chase learned that the boy he shared the compartment with was Brent McKinney. A significant part in his future. Later on, barely after the train had left, a small boy who couldn't even speak English had come in, along with a Slytherin girl in Brent's year. Chase had kind of been terrified of her at first, and confused by the boy who only spoke Spanish. Chase stuck to talking to Brent, which ended up being a very good thing.
When Chase arrived at Hogwarts, he was terrified of getting sorted. It meant a lot in this school. Wherever you went was kind of like your family for the next seven years of your life. Since Chase kind of lacked in the family department, he wanted to make sure he got a good one. The sorting hat placed him in Gryffindor almost immediately, where he took a seat next to Brent at the table, his smile never fading.
On the way home from his first year, Chase and Brent both ran into the small boy that hadn't spoke any English before. This time he spoke some, even if it wasn't amazing English. Chase and Alex became friends right away. Chase escaped his father for a day by going over to his house and everything that summer. He couldn't have been happier about that. Life seemed to be looking up for Chase. Brent had an amazing voice and loved music. Alex loved music and played guitar extremely well. Chase was happy as long as he didn't think about the beatings he would get from his dad still.
Eventually the forth member of their crew joined them, Reid. The other three eventually found out he played the bass and they formed their own little band around Chase's forth year. They were good from the start and even wrote their own music. By Chase's fifth year, his mother had gotten the courage to kick his father out and his life was finally looking amazing for once. He had friends, a mother than loved him, and he stopped having to hide the bruises his father would give him.
Chase had fallen in love with Brent McKinney since their first year at Hogwarts. They had become best friends throughout their Hogwarts years. Even more so than Alex and him had, which was hard. Brent was the only one that Chase ever told about his father in Hogwarts. Later in life he told Alex when they had gotten drunk together, something Chase would only do with one of his three best friends.
His seventh year was almost torture for him since Brent was a year older and therefore wasn't there. Chase had Alex and Reid to keep him company, though, so it wasn't entirely bad. After they all had finished Hogwarts, they began to write more songs and had actually recorded albums and sold them. They even had a huge hit in the muggle world. It was during this time that Chase and Brent had both gotten drunk and ended up making out. Chase had waited forever for this and eventually him and Brent started dating. It wasn't the same thing for the both of them though. For Chase it was love. For Brent it was an experiment.
After Brent freaked out, he broke off the relationship that was a lot more physical than emotional and ran off to find a girl. He found one. A girl that picked on them when they were at school. A girl that called him a mudblood. Chase went with it though, even if getting through the wedding was absolute torture for Chase, he sucked it up because Brent was his best friend and he deserved that much out of him.
After the band quieted down, the four best friends all split their ways and went off and found jobs. Chase and Brent both went to Hogwarts, Reid to the Ministry, and Alex became a Healer. Chase stood by Brent the entire time. While he was married to Maryn, Chase stood in the background the entire time. Still madly in love with Brent.
It seemed like forever to Chase, but eventually Brent realized his attraction to Chase and his love. They went behind Maryn's back for a while before they realized it wasn't fair to her and Brent told her. Maryn divorced him and Chase and Brent were free to finally get into a real relationship, filled with all the problems it came with. Which included Brent cheating twice, Chase cheating once, and a whole hell of a lot more.
Even though Alex and Chase had been best friends since the summer of their first year. Alex had liked Chase more than a friend. Chase didn't know it, however. They had grown apart after the band calmed and that was the main reason. After a small fight, it got blurted out and they became closer because of that. But when they both were down, they sort of ended up kissing each other and it didn't turn out too well. Chase and Brent made up rather fast since their little baby girl came into the world and they had to.
Chase proposed to Brent not very long after they got together, and he said yes. Although they haven't gotten married yet, they bought a beautiful house in the country and adopted their little girl along with a hufflepuff girl that had been through a lot and needed a family, and Brent's younger brother he never knew he had that was orphaned after their parents both died. Chase went from having nothing, to having exactly what he's always wanted and he couldn't be happier.

role-play sample:
Chase knew Brent was probably nervous about being a father. He was too. Right now Chase was just blinded by his love for Rose. He had wanted a baby for so long. Especially wanted one with Brent. Now he was getting it. He had a baby with the love of his life. No matter what they were fighting about before. Chase was pretty sure this would trump over anything.
When Brent took Rose, Chase didn't think he could ever be more happy. The sight of Brent holding their child was the best in the entire world. Chase went over and put his arms on Brent's waist, careful not to disturb the baby in his arms. Chase leaned forward and kissed Brent gently. "I love you so much." By now, the thoughts about Alex and what Chase had done were far gone. Chase wasn't thinking about that, or Murphy or anything. He was thinking about Brent, Rose, and their life together.
