Introducing: Dalo.
The Basics
Name; Dalo the Mystic
Age; 48
Birthday; February 19th
Gender; Male
Position; Professor of Molecular Magic (Which is the study of the physics involved in magic. Covering simple wand movements to prophecies )
House; Former Hufflepuff
Wand; Bamboo, 11 1/4 Inches, Vampire Dust
The Outer Layer
Physical Appearance; Dalo is always seen heavily covered, Thick Eastern robes drape his slender frame to cover any of his pale skin, and hand woven silk gloves hide's his hands from view.
On his face is probability the most curious aspect about his appearance because rather then the face of a forty year old man is the peaceful white plastic of a calm mask.
What lies under the peaceful white plastic and midnight black cloth is not an ugly face, nor is it one scarred by fire or by age. The same goes with the rest of his body, which he keeps under wraps of foreign silk. As far as Dalo is aware, his body is healthy and hearty. So it can be assumed that Dalo wears such attire to simply stand out from the crowd.
The Inner Layer
Patronus; A shoulder clinging monkey. (Which Dalo has warmly named Boop)
Boggart; An extremely tall figure wearing the same odd attire that Dalo is usually seen with.
Strengths; Dalo is extremely skilled with magic of all sorts, one of the few wizards who can in fact practice magic without a wand, and possesses a wide range of knowledge of many magical creatures and places.
Weaknesses; When practicing magic without a wand Dalo is limited to only manipulating the closest magical element (Such as fire). His pacifistic nature and love of magical creatures has also proved a hindrance within a Magical Community.
Personality; To wear a mask that both intimidates and inspires one must possess a personality that is rejected by society, and that is what Dalo is in the eyes of the ruling families of the wizarding world..A reject.
Happy go lucky, bouncy, and just plain odd. Dalo is a vat of bubbling personality with those three emotions brewing along the top of the mixture.
For example, Dalo refuses to walk the same way as he did the day before. Therefor, it is quite common to see the masked wizard slumped forward and walking backwards one day, and then seeing him cartwheel while singing "Mary had a little lamb" the next.
The Past
History; Dalo's history is much like his face, a mysterious image that never been seen. But after close examination of his daily attire and routine. A few facts, both obvious and educated, can be gathered.
Dalo clothes for instance. Every single article of clothing that he wears is Eastern in design. And after comparing one of his shirts with the ones worn by the many different cultures that make Asia their home (Both Wizarding and Muggles alike) shows that the styles of his clothing resembles a mix of Mongolian and Chinese (muggle style)
Therefor it can be gathered that Dalo was born to a muggle family within the mountains separating the two countries, and judging from his very light accent. He had been taken in by the wizarding world at a very young age.
(I hope that is good :])

Roleplay Sample;
"Oh dear, OhdearOhdearOhdear." commented a rather tall man who was sitting alone within a small, shaky, train compartment. The man was wearing a red silk button shirt, which was obviously influenced by the Asian style of cloth, and a simple pair of black pants.
This attire alone wouldn't stand out at all within the more bizarre fashion that most wizards and witches are so found of, and it would most defiantly not of compelled a number of small first years to peak into his train cabin every so often. But the white mask, strapped onto a black hood that covered the entire face of the Eastern Wizard did.
"Ohhhhhh Dear" Dalo moaned though his mask, which sent the latest group of peeking first years skidding away in a fit of giggles. "Gah! I'm already getting cold feet, and on the first day of my vacation too!" In a sudden fit of speed, Dalo would hurl himself to his feet and proceeded to do a twirl around the small cabin. His reward for such a random act was losing his footing, and spilling out into the hall of the Hogwarts express.
