HI HELLO. An angel descended from the heavens and bid me, "Hey, Jenny. Do not makest thou a 5th character. Also maybe you shouldn't write intro posts after drinking." and my dudes I totally 100% fuckin' ignored it. SO HI MEET GRIFFIN FLOWERS!!

Griffin is from a tiny magic-y village in Lancaster County, PA. That's Amish country. That is pretty much the extent of his exposure to muggle shit.

His family has been farming squonks for GENERATIONS. They have a lot of trouble keeping the farm family owned and operated because Squonk Farming sucks. So they rely pretty heavily on GUILT to keep the chain of inheritance alive.

Griffin's dad is a SECRET AGENT for the MACUSA. Basically like the wizard equivalent of a green beret/navy SEAL? And he's stationed in Korea and everyone thinks he's just a dead beat dad, so Griffin doesn't talk about him much because most people assume he's lying.

Griffin is a mathboy because I keep doing this to myself?? He likes physics and geometry especially and is into the concept of Sacred Geometry.

He's in DIVINATION but it's because he likes that they occasionally go over stars. He's respectful when he's in class but he doesn't necessarily believe in it. He doesn't have a "specialization" yet but I kind of want to do something absurd wit the Spin the Bottle bottle.

His DREAM is to become an astronaut. Griffin's dad bought him a telescope when he was younger, and he's obsessed with space. He's not so much a WOO ALIENS kid, although that's certainly there, too. He's more into the SCIENCE of it.

He's a sweet boy, but he's emotionally immature and SUPER naive and sheltered and copes by being a Typical Azurcrest and just making exponentially worse decisions as time goes on. Jesse McBride was PROBABLY his idol.

I basically wanted to make a character that embodies Yikes and here I am.

He's AMAZINGLY lazy and will put more work into "being lazy" than he would if he actually did something right the first time. He doesn't seem to realize he's doing this.

Squonks are v important and they need a Legacy. ;n;

I LOVE Tuesday. And Griffin is like "wow okay yes sure if you think so my friends" to the overall impending sophomore apocalypse so Count Him In!!

Addy is SUCH A GOOD MOM ;_; Griffin waits with bated breath for guidance from both Addy and Jade. And even if the advice is 100% at odds, he will try to find a way to follow both while also expending the least amount of energy possible. It might just involve getting super drunk in the grotto and being completely inert though.

I love Ferdie's Police tactics.
