James is a young, talented boy with a kind, caring personality. He often gets in his own way with how apologetic he is. Often times, he apologizes for the smallest of things. He is also very worried at times. He can worry over anything and everything- and sometimes thinks of the worst possible scenarios, despite being quite optimistic. Despite him being worried and over apologetic, he can be quite careless at times. He often gets into more trouble than he means to, but he has good intentions.                                                                                                                               James was born on February 2nd, 2006 (if this RP takes places in present day, this would be his birthday. If not, he’s born in some different year.) to Jack Henderson Sr. and Sarah Henderson, who are both muggles. He has one non-magical older brother, Jack Henderson Jr, who is older by two years. He has a few cousins, but barely any other noteworthy family members. He has a fear of running out of time to do things, and constantly bugs himself about not finishing things on time. He loves animals and creatures, and evidence of this is that the only book he read before arriving at Hogwarts was Fantastic Beasts and Where to find them by Newt Scamander, and put the other books on hold because he didn’t think he’d need them till he attended school.

Due to being born to muggle parents, James had no exposure to the wizarding world, nor did he have any knowledge of it. He raised with an older brother, Jack, who is a muggle. However, from a young age, he displayed talents and showed signs of magic. He particularly showed this when with animals. James would often control small animals and rodents, like rats and squirrels. Once, he had escaped a gang of bullies by "asking" squirrels to fight for him. Another time, he had lost a kite while playing with his brothers, and got a group of squirrels to grab the kite for him. He also displayed magical abilities by manipulating the look of objects. He once shattered a glass of water without even touching it. When he finally got his Hogwarts letter, his parents suspected it was some sort of prank, however, it was not. He was then sent to Diagon alley to purchase his equipment for school.

He was sorted into Ravenclaw , house of the wise, when at Hogwarts. Despite being a house for intellectuals, James has no knowledge of anything about Hogwarts before arriving at the school.
