He keeps himself fit, eating fairly clean aside from a habit of drinking to great excess. He focuses quite heavily on appearance but is genuinely a strong runner and physically very capable. He often dresses very casually wherever he can do, and doesn't care much for uniform, suits or looking smart. He'd much rather appear in fitness wear or street fashion than anything else. He's a very loud and physically expressive person, often bold and brash in social situations. Joey walks with his head held high and shoulders back, like a man with pride should.<br/><br/><strong>Personality Traits:</strong>Joey is something of an agent of chaos by nature. He loves life, and he loves it to be loud and unpredictable. Very social he finds the more people he can surround himself with the more chance there is that things will be interesting. His attendance alone often makes a classroom, party or conversation feel like there's another half dozen people there as he loudly banters using his London slang that many of the pure bloods almost need a translator for. Joey likes a good drink, and he loves a good woman. Despite being carefree around women he's at least honest, and never pretends to be looking for anything more than casual fun.<br/><br/>Beneath the party animal Joey's main source of trouble is his two failed relationships with what could've been father figures. One who abandoned him before birth only to send a cryptic note that explained nothing while giving him the gift of a wand that seemed almost purpose built to draw a wizard to the dark arts. And the other was a convicted criminal doing time in jail. His mother helped him understand it wasn't Joey's fault, and she is both kind and encouraging, but he is still troubled and struggles around father figures. It is perhaps his lack of any male role models besides those his own age who were just as unguided and reckless as he was that contributed to his lack of a drive.<br/><br/><strong>Brief History:</strong>Joey was the result of a brief one night stand between an American wizard and an English-Jamaican woman in Hackney. She made it through pregnancy alone, despite greatly struggling to work as a nurse throughout. When Joey was very young she met a man named Nathaniel who would eventually become Joey's adoptive father. Unfortunately his new dad was a rough man, and caused Joey to pick up a lot of bad ideals and habits early in life. His mother did her best but Joey couldn't seem to stop getting in trouble in new, inventive ways. He was hopeless in school and often casually committed petty crimes, not really caring for rules.<br/><br/>A great deal happened to Joey towards the end of his childhood. His adoptive father was arrested on a variety of charges for his criminal activity just before Joey found out he was a wizard. Well, his acceptance to hogwarts was a huge shock but it came with a strange thing in his life. His mother had admitted to him that Nathaniel wasn't his father, and the falcon that arrived proved that. He could never figure out how the relatively small bird got across the Atlantic, but the note explained it was originally from America. With it it carried an American-made wand that the note explained was a gift from his absentee father. On that front the note itself gave almost no real explanation, serving as a source of frustration and very mixed feelings for the youth.<br/><br/>Regardless he found his way to Hogwarts, where his very social nature helped him easily befriend his fellow students, although he never got on well with many pure bloods. And his teachers quickly learned that Joey was a perfect storm combining a great deal of natural talent with inexplicably equal measures of chaos and laziness. He never put the effort in to work, and when he did it was haphazard at best. He typically failed everything that required intense studying while he exceeded at the practical side of things, earning himself something of a reputation for his knack for duelling. Perhaps his chaotic nature aided that, as he very rarely went along with anything described in books instead choosing to trust his instincts.<br/><br/>As he grew a little older Joey got a reputation as a party boy, leaning in to it happily and deeply frustrating his fellow students. He ranges from seen as a bit of a trouble maker to wholly out of control, with a few teachers worrying that between his skill, unknown father and chaotic tendencies he could easily form an affinity for the dark arts. Despite these moments of concern Joey has never been seen as a bully or a cruel person, simply a loud and intense one. In fact he's often stepped in to defend others, either berating them in a slew of Hackney slang or a few times tossing them to the ground. He's not allowed to see the numbers for fear it might spur record chasing, but he's fairly sure he's approaching an all time high of impromptu student duels. In his fifth year Joey's certainly no calmer. Despite moments of interest in the tri-wizard tournament he ultimately lacks the drive to strive for something like that and would rather just be the life of the parties afterwards.<br/><br/><strong>Likes:</strong>Hip hop, Drill & Grime music, Partying, Drinking, Living carelessly, Duelling<br/><br/><strong>Dislikes:</strong>Rich People, Rules, Judgemental People, Killjoys, Classical Music, High Class Events, Bullies<br/><br/><strong>Family:</strong><br/><br/>Father | Ignatius Barrows | American Wizard | 48 | Pure Blood<br/>Adoptive Father | Nathaniel Kingston | Convict | 46 | Muggle<br/>Mother | Irie Kingston | Nurse | 45 | Muggle<br/><br/><div align="center"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 12pt;">»<em>Academic Information</em>«</span></div><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Marks</div><div class="spoiler_body"><span class="bbc_u">Passing Grades</span><br/>O - Outstanding<br/>E - Exceeds Expectations<br/>A - Acceptable<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u">Failing Grades</span><br/>P - Poor<br/>D - Dreadful<br/><del>T - Troll</del><br/></div></div><br/><br/><br/><strong>OWL Grades:</strong><br/><em>Charms</em>- O<br/><em>Transfiguration</em>- O<br/><em>Herbology</em>- D<br/><em>Defense Against the Dark Arts</em>- O<br/><em>Ancient Runes</em>- E<br/><em>Potions</em>- P<br/><em>Care of Magical Creatures</em>- A<br/><em>Astronomy</em>- A<br/><em>Divination</em>- D<br/><em>History of Magic</em>- A<br/><em>Arithmancy</em>- D<br/><em>Muggle Studies</em>- E<br/><br/><strong>NEWT Grades:</strong><br/><br/><em>Charms</em>- O<br/><em>Transfiguration</em>- O<br/><em>Defense Against the Dark Arts</em>- O<br/><em>Ancient Runes</em>- E<br/><em>Muggle Studies</em>- E<br/><br/><div align="center"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 12pt;">»<em>Miscellaneous Information</em>«</span></div><br/><br/><strong>Familiar:</strong>Praire Falcon (https://d1ia71hq4oe7pn.cloudfront.net/photo/71547421-720px.jpg)<br/><br/><strong>Face-claim:</strong>Broderick Hunter<br/><br/><strong>O/O's:</strong>Here (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=295203.msg14467576#msg14467576)<br/><br/><strong>Notes:</strong><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Joey's Playlist</div><div class="spoiler_body"><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Joey's Playlist</strong></span><br/>Bugzy Malone - Drama<br/>Chief Keef - Love Sosa<br/>Lil Durk - Dis Ain't What U Want<br/>Kano - P's and Q's<br/>Kano Ft.
