Background / History

Ian was a transmigrator with the soul of an adult and memories of having been a mathematics major. He grew up at Wool's Orphanage, where he supported himself through a London divination stall, used psychological insight to read clients, and acted as a guardian figure for the other children. His attribute panel granted the trait Hard Work Leads to Strength, allowing diligent practice to improve skills and unlock extraordinary traits. 1 3 6

Before entering Hogwarts, Ian discovered that he could enter Limbo—the realm of the dead—in dreams, initially on a weekly basis. There he repeatedly met Ariana, a ghostly girl with fading memories, and received a mysterious mark from her. His connection to Limbo became central to his later ability to communicate with the dead and to his relationship with the Dumbledore family. 2 3 90

Albus Dumbledore personally invited Ian to Hogwarts, while Severus Snape escorted him through Diagon Alley and supplied his school necessities. Although Ian entered the wizarding world wary of Dumbledore and its dangers, he rapidly pursued magical knowledge, including Potions, Ancient Runes, Legilimency, and forbidden Dark Arts. 2 11 24 45

Sorted into Ravenclaw, Ian formed a dormitory friendship with Michael and William, created a paid nighttime class for Ravenclaws, and became deeply involved in Hogwarts' hidden history. He acquired Ravenclaw's Diadem, uncovered Hufflepuff's Golden Room, explored the Chamber of Secrets, and was marked as one “chosen by Slytherin.” 56 73 91 102 125

Ian later learned that he was a twelve-year-old student from a future timeline. Though he could disguise himself as a composed youth of seventeen or eighteen, his true appearance was that of a black-haired child. He identified Hogwarts as his home regardless of the era or timeline in which he found himself. 557 558

Appearance

Ian's true form is that of a twelve-year-old boy with black hair, youthful features, and unusually deep dark eyes. He can alter his appearance into that of an older teenager or young adult, an identity he has used while moving through other eras. 551 558

• Distinctive deep, pool-like eyes that are difficult for others to read. 539 558
• Pale or chrome-green eyes were noted during his early Hogwarts years. 74 100
• Often wears plain dark clothing when concealing his identity outside Hogwarts. 551 600
• Can transform into a raven through his connection to Soul Hall. 226 600

Personality

Ian is highly observant, calculating, and exceptionally difficult to deceive. His early survival at an orphanage, adult memories, and Psychology mastery made him quick to notice hidden motives; he often uses charm, flattery, fabricated innocence, or deliberate eccentricity to steer other people toward conclusions he prefers. 1 9 162 170

His ambition is tempered by a genuine commitment to learning and teaching. He shares practical knowledge through private classes, studies across magical disciplines, and repeatedly seeks to understand systems that others treat as mysteries. He is especially drawn to secrets, alchemy, bloodlines, souls, and ancient magic. 24 88 91 102

Despite his willingness to use dangerous magic, Ian is not indifferent to suffering. He protected younger students during the Ashwinder attack, defended Hogwarts with Fiendfyre, treated corrupted nature spirits as victims rather than monsters, and remained attached to the orphanage children who raised him. 6 85 86 430
