Hi all! Heather here, with my newest: Mr Bastien Janvier. A small number of you know him already, but for those who don't:
He's 32, a Keeper for the Falcons, and has been selected for the French National Team at the World Cup. This will be his first tournament since 94, as in 95 he suffered an almost career ending injury that meant he spent three years out of the game. He transferred to the BIL from Luxembourg's Bigonville Bombers last year, and is in his second season with the Falcons now.
Bastien has a French father, and a Belgium-raised mother. His maternal grandfather is Israeli and his maternal grandmother Palestinian, so he identifies as Middle Eastern as much as French, though France is what he knows best. As a result, he is a polyglot - he speaks French, Flemish, Hebrew and Arabic at fluent native speaker level, and can speak English, German and Italian as well.
The thing most people would know about Bastien is that he models a lot and has several endorsements. Think the Beckham style ads for personal grooming and fashion as well as Quidditch related gear - there is a high likelihood that if you buy a non-sporting magazine, you will at some point have seen Bastien in his pants ;)
PLOT AT ME!
