Personality: Studious, hardworking, reserved, and stern. On a first glance August seems to be all explained by these four words. However, just as a real human there are layers to him as well. A little eccentric, greatly passionated, and impartial as well as easy-going are also words that stand high on the list to explain August Yilmaz, forever a foreigner in a country he has long since considered home. A young male who finds pleasure in surrounding himself in both knowledge as well as music, a philosopher and a secret romantic who enjoys abstract art as well as the exact studies. Sometimes impatient, most of the times understanding and curious. This sums up the nature of August, and him as a student.
History: August's story is of simple origins. He was born in Turkey, in a Kurdish family that decided to find their hail and luck in another country. A rainier country and colder. It was the country in which the boy would grow up to be a young man. His second home, though memories to his fatherland always remained fondly. A simple second generation immigrant from a family of magic, but also a discriminated minority. A country to which his father rather not returns, but still goes to for family visits. A country from which the accent still forever remains in his speech, but from which he barely retained the tongue from other than what he speaks to his parents.
Luckily he was never alone in that journey. His twin sister; Lucine was always by his side and August had expected her to come along with him to Hogwarts in the year they turned eleven. However, only one letter came and it was soon revealed that his twin was a squib. An unfortunate happening with terrifying implications as it meant that the somewhat awkward boy had to attend school alone.
The first year in Hogwarts was lonely, bullied as he was for his strange accent and exotic looks. However, things started to look up once the boy found a place to express himself and some friends. A busybee that is always on the move and through music and friendship August Yilmaz grew.
