Curious to a fault, Ryan's interests don't always match his skills. He wants to be a good duellist but is terrible with confrontation. He loves to explore but has a tendency to get scared or lost. He tries to do well but is easily frustrated with failure. His reflexes are sharp though and he's good with hexes. How friendly and laid-back Ryan is depends on how well he's doing in his studies and personal goals.
Ryan lives in a very goal-orientated household. His father is a scientist and his mother a detective. Ryan believes he has to be equally or more extraordinary than them because he's their son and has magic. They want him to succeed and push himself but sometimes forget he's just a kid and should be outside playing more than tucked away in a room with textbooks.

They were fascinated to learn he was a wizard and embraced it completely, though each wished they had magic of their own to help with their jobs. They allowed him to experiment more and learn at his own pace after that, which was a breath of fresh air for Ryan.

Leaving Muggle school was the best thing for him though, as he was often bullied for being too weird or a loner. His books are covered in animal sketches or to-do lists he doesn't always complete. Having been bullied a lot, he's often on edge around people his own age and startles at loud noises. He sees Hogwarts as a fresh start to make friends and figure out what he wants to be. He feels lost and overwhelmed but optimistic about going to a magical school.
