Hey, this is Rolf!

Rolf Scamander is the grandchild of Newt Scamander (fantastic beasts and where to find them), and carried on family tradition by becoming a magizoologist. His father fled Britain during the first war, because he was being pressured to join the DE. While abroad he fell in love with Kasja and started a family in Sweden. He eventually went to Durmstrang, but made the very conscious decision NOT to be a delegate for the Triwizard Tournament.

He can come off as very antisocial, but in reality he's just very nervous. He's excited to get a journal because he knows he comes off more confident on paper, but his IRL social life is almost non-existent. It's very easy for him to get worked up into an anxiety attack, so he needs a gentle touch.

He vaguely knows Luna and Victoria by way of teaching seminars they've attended, and I imagine he's friendly with other Durmstrang students. Particularly Yakov, because Rolf enjoys the company of easy-going people.

So that's what's going on!

Yay, Rolf is here!

Let's see what my kidlets have to say about him...

Miles sees nervous people as little playthings. It's mean, I know, but it's stronger than him. However, if he feels more confident on paper, there's a chance he'll be nicer from the get go - it all depends on the first impression, really.

Leah is looking forward to having an intelligent conversation. She's not very sociable either, though in a different way, so the journals might be helpful for both.

Tiago won't know him since Rolf wasn't part of the delegation back in the day, but he'll be nice.

Hamish will be nice too. He knows all about feeling socially awkward, though not in such an extreme way.

Greg will be nice too. Ditto Jamie.

Sohvi will be very friendly and will be more than happy to engage in conversation in Swedish since she knows the language.

Samir will be nice in an excitable way I'm sure Rolf might find alarming if they ever meet in person.

Luna... Well, she felt sorry for him when she attended that seminar. He intrigues her, both because she's interested in his experience and knowledge and what he has to say, but also because she has no idea what it must feel like to be so anxious.

Cormac is trying hard not to scoff.

Declan will try to prove that scoffing is not a McLaggen trait.

And Zoe will be friendly.

Rolf says Miles is rude.

I can definitely see him getting along really well with Leah.

Tiago Greg and Jamie might just fly under his radar.

I can see him being pleasant to Hamish. He likes quidditch in a passive kind of way. He enjoys things where he understands all the rules.

He might go into Jamie's shop now and again!

I don't see how he'd know Greg, but he'd be nice.

Yay! He likes Sohvi. She's cheerful in a manageable way. He can pretty comfortably speak/understand a lot of Scandinavian languages, but Finish is all Greek to him (lol).

Samir would definitely alarm him.

LUNA. <3

He thinks Cormac is annoying and really wants to see Declan's horses.

He will love Zoe.
