- ■ BITTER Myron, having inherited what some term the 'Thorburn moodiness' from his mother's side, is prone to feeling slighted and resentful, although these feelings do have some ground in reality, seeing as although he always knew both his parents loved him and truly considered him their son, knowing he was the b*****d child and that his father seemingly couldn't be bothered to marry his mother stung. He's got a nasty habit of feeling constantly wronged, even when it's justified.
■ COURAGEOUS Myron has never been afraid to do the right thing or help someone else, even when it puts him at risk. He's not easily intimidated or cowed by other people, and while not as impulsive as say, his mother, won't think twice before speaking his mind or doing what he thinks necessary. He's very protective of his friends and family, and not afraid to show it.
■ KIND Despite his moods and sometimes prickly nature, Myron does try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt and treats others the way he'd like to be treated. While not quite cheery or very outgoing, he is always willing to listen to someone else vent and offer advice, and he does care very deeply about the people around him, as he knows what it's like to feel ignored or left out.
■ OPEN-MINDED Myron may not go out of his way to make friends, but he is very tolerant of others and respectful, something trained into him by his mother, who often remarked that her worst fear would be to have a prejudiced snob for a child. Having grown up in a very non-traditional family, not much fazes Myron, and he is usually willing to just 'go with the flow', so to speak.
■ SHREWD Myron has never considered himself exceptionally clever; he likes reading and all, and does decently in school, but you could say he's far more street smart than book smart. He's not easily manipulated and is cynical enough to be far from gullible or naive, and thus usually prides himself on being fairly good at reading people and their intentions.
■ DECISIVE Myron cannot stand indecision or waiting around for things to change. Once he decides to do something, he does it. He can't stand people who are constantly waffling or changing their minds, and it's very difficult to change his mind on something once he comes to a decision. He'd rather be known as stubborn than hesitant.

- CHILDHOOD Myron is the product of an 'affair' between Nathaniel Hargrave and Illisa Thorburn- 'affair' because his father's marriage, which had been arranged, was privately open and his wife at the time had no real issue with him seeing Myron's mother on the side. His existence was kept secret from his paternal grandparents, but he saw his father regularly growing up, although his mother was always his primary caregiver. Myron loved his parents, but couldn't help but feel as though some small part of his father was ashamed of him, despite what he said, and that some small part of his mother wished he'd never been born, as she'd had him very young. He waited impatiently for the day when his father would finally make up his mind and divorce his current wife, Liliana, so they could be an 'official family', but it never seemed to come. When it finally did, after ultimatum after ultimatum delivered by his mother, the happiness was short-lived- in the matter of a day his father, grandmother, uncle, and cousin were all dead at the hands of his paternal grandfather, Ira Hargrave, and uncle, Faron Hargrave. Myron understood that this was indirectly because of him and his mother, and thus found that his childhood had come to an abrupt end at the age of ten. He and his parents had been a family for what seemed like a split-second, and then they'd been punished for it, and Myron didn't think he could take another punishment like that. Hogwarts, by the time he'd recieved his letter, seemed a welcome escape from a newly disabled mother, and two half-sisters who both loved and hated him at the same time.
SCHOOL YEARS
- FIRST YEAR Myron was happy to be sorted into Gryffindor, just like his mother's side of the family, and enjoyed his time at Hogwarts very much, despite being pretty quiet and not making any close friends in particular. He liked the change in scenery and most of his classes and professors, and was happy to sleep in a slightly drafty old tower. The food was also just as good as promised, much to his satisfaction.
SECOND YEAR Myron got lost much less often in his second year, except for when he purposefully got lost to avoid his half-sister, who seemed intent on interrogating him about the castle whenever she got the chance. Luckily, they weren't in the same house.
THIRD YEAR Myron was pleased with his position as reserve keeper for Gryffindor, and enjoyed himself at the Halloween carnival. Callista also left him alone more, caught up with her own shenanigans.
FOURTH YEAR Myron almost died over the summer, due to Faron tracking them down. Luckily he didn't manage to kill anyone, but Myron was still infuriated with Callista, who was partially to blame for providing their location to Faron. He calmed down over the course of the year, and met a hotheaded fifth year named Greer.
FIFTH YEAR Myron briefly dated Greer during the autumn and winter of his fifth year, before they were decided they were better off as friends and broke up in January. He also wanted to focus on studying for his OWLs, which he wanted to do well on.
SIXTH YEAR Myron had a quiet sixth year, enjoying the break from exams. He spent some more time with his friend Drew and by the end of the year had developed a bit of a crush on the younger girl, mostly due to her confident attitude and assertive nature.
SEVENTH YEAR Myron worked up the nerve to ask Drew out, and was happily surprised when she said yes. He also enjoyed a good year for Gryffindor quidditch, although his focus was split between that and his looming NEWTs. Mostly, he was relieved to get through his last year at school without any major incidents.
