Call me Ishmael
G'day all! Kat here, bringing you Sherlock Dorian Ishmael Croaker.... but just call him Ishmael. As you may have noticed, his parents are quite the Muggle literature buffs - he was named after two of their favourite characters as well as one of his paternal grandfather's favourite characters. His parents call him Sherlock, his mother occasionally calls him Dorian (much to his annoyance) but he much prefers Ishmael. And given he wrote to Professor Dumbledore before he went to Hogwarts and asked officially known as Ishmael (Dumbledore was amused and agreed) that's how most people know him. That or just Ish. Or Croaker. Or that weird guy in the DoM. :D
He was a Ravenclaw in the class of '61 at Hogwarts and also a prefect so those who were fellow prefects as well as anyone in his House might have managed to winkle his full name out of him. (Drop me a line and we'll work it out.) He's now working as an Unspeakable, mostly in the Time Room but he does sort of cross-pollinate to other areas as well from time to time.
He is also an enormous dork and people may have seen him walking down Diagon Alley, either heading to work or home, with his nose buried in a book... and they might also have seen him walk into a pole, a wall, another person etc. And he's more than willing to do so in the future. :D
Anyway, you can find his info here so... friends/enemies/frenemies etc etc?
