Edit: Prepare for my attempt to make a decent story with little Harry Potter knowledge. xD

The Story

It was a dark, foreboding day at Hogwarts.  While Harry, Ron, and Hermione were all in their classes, he was elsewhere on the grounds, looking on with his son and grandson.

"Look now, Iridescent." Voldermort said.  "That is the school where we once got our training.  However, they banished us when they realized our intentions."

The young Lord Iridescent looked up at his grandfather, and then to his father, Lord Tromedlove.  "Daddy, are you gonna make me go there?" He asked quietly.  The other socerer laughed; "Never in a million years would I allow you to set foot in that place, son.  Never." He said, looking around.  "After all, they know that we can be defeated, and they will defeat us if given the chance."

Tromedlove looked over at Voldermort and said, "Father, might my son and I be excused from your presence for a short while?  I wish to explain some things to him about his ultimate destiny."  Voldermort's head inclined slightly before he said, "Go... but be back here before sundown."

So, Tromedlove and Iridescent slowly walked around the grounds, careful to take the less-traveled roads to avoid confrontations with the Hogwarts students.  Tromedlove smiled as he said, "Son, your grandfather and I have a gift for you, but you shall have to pass a few tests first."

"What kind of tests?" Iridescent asked.  "What kind of gift?"

"You shall find out in time, my son." Tromedlove said, grinning evilly.  Back in the tower, Voldermort walked over to a cage in a secluded room.  "Ah, yes... Viktor.  You shall be the one that I give to my grandson." He said, laying a single thin finger on the Marrow Corbine's skin.  It whirred and clicked, a sign that he had ackowledged his Master and was aware of this command.  After all, Voldermort had raised him to be obedient--he had seen many a Corbine dismantled for daring to even slightly defy the Master's orders.  Now named, Viktor was allowed to hop out from his cage and perch on Voldermort's shoulder, where he would remain as Iridescent was tested.

Tromedlove and Iridescent returned to the tower at sundown, and Voldermort smiled.  "We shall now test your skills, young Iridescent.  Viktor," he said, inclining a hand to the Corbine.  "Viktor shall test you in various ways: attacking with magic, defending with magic, your abilities to use various spells.  Now!  Viktor, begin the test!"

A series of clicks and whirs translated into "Yes, Massster." The Corbine swooped, pecked, dove, and attacked Iridescent, but he deflected the several blows that the Corbine delt him.  About an hour later, the Corbine lay on the ground, breathing weakly.

"Good, my son." Tromedlove said, picking up the Corbine.  "He shall be your pet now.  He is far more sufficient than those blithering owls they have at Hogwarts in that he can speak." He said.  Viktor jumped onto Iridescent's shoulder and said, "What isss it you wisssh of me, Massster?"

There. ^^ Done.

[Azura Rayume]

[Matt]

Anyone else? 8D

EDIT: I'm thinking of naming him after a Harry Potter character, like a cosplay, so if you maybe could use that....?

[Toon-Souseiseki]

I'll join!  Although I don't have a name for the little guy, but I do have a story/personality to wagger.

[Matt]

Anyone else? <3

[J'Tal]

You know what? Screw it, I'll enter. gimmie a day or two.

edit: Ok, so I already know I lost... drat! Oh well! here is my interpretation! (I hope you don't mind stats as well...)

Picture
Species: Marrow Corbine (S)
Name: Scraw
Gender: Male
Personality: Scraw has more personality than other Corbines. Being raised by Lord Voldemort himself has caused Scraw to despise the good in others. Scraw will watch others and at the appropriate moment, destroy whatever good intentions that were present.
Level: 1 (Posts: 0)
Loyalty: 3
Toughness: 7
Exploration: 7
Endurance: 9
Intelligence: 12
Righteousness: 0
Darkness: 4
Fame: 4
Passive Traits: Born Flier, Chaotic Mind, Deep Vision (Charlatan, Criminal Mastermind, Human Speech, Shadow)
Battle Traits: Metal Plating, Resist Death, Winged Warrior (Crowd Tactics, Guerrilla Warrior, Life Drain)

Background: Lord Voldemort magically created the Corbine from crow corpses and machine parts. It was a to be a temporary reprieve from the owls and their messes of feathers and dung. He was pleasantly surprised to find that the bird had the uncanny knack of speaking. Voldemort was going to dispose of the creature after a few missions of terrorizing Harry Potter and his goody two shoes friends. The missiions went so well that Voldemort taught the bird magic and drain foes life.

Years later, Voldemort decided to reward his offspring in his terrorizing of the good side with his magical Corbine. The Corbine had unnaturally not aged a day compared to his ancient lord. The creatures new master; Lord Tromedlove was a cruel and capricious master. He used his gift as a weapon against any that would stand in his way. After years of his cruelty to all in his reach which included his own son, Lord Tromedlove passed away. He had left the Corbine to his son Iridescent.

Lord Iridescent had despised his father and was not convinced the way to victory was through tyranny. Taking the bird for he felt a kinship with the demented beast, he took his name and rank as the new lord, and decided to make a difference. He moved to the Tea Leaf Estate to begin anew, That is where he learned the hardest part of being good. The hardest part of changing his evil image into something worthwhile, was changing himself. The Corbine is not an easy creature to change as well.

What do you think? The stats can naturally change, but I put them that way to reflect the masters he has endured. The character is also ready to be Role Played into a "Model Citizen" if you are willing to take the time. Here you go.
