Garrick Ollivander (b. 25 September pre-1909) was a half-blood wizard who was the proprietor of Ollivanders in Diagon Alley during most of the 20th century. Ollivander was widely considered the best wandmaker in the world, and many wizards and witches bought their wands from him. Exterior: Male, 79 year old, pale silvery eyes, white skin, neck-length white bushy hair. Personality and traits: Excellent memory and deep knowledge of wands. Happier the more difficult the challenge to find exactly the right wand for a difficult customer was. Had a professorial enthusiasm for wandlore and was immensely learned in it. He was so fascinated with what a powerful wizard could do when matched with the right wand that he became detached from the good or evil nature of their actions. But Ollivander was not a malicious man and still valued his own life and well-being, and others. Bg + extra: Parents— Gervaise Ollivander, a wizard, and a Muggle-born witch, making him half-blood. Ancestry—The Ollivander family had long been associated with the profession of wandcraft. They set up a shop in Britain to sell wands that were superior to the unreliable, poorly constructed ones fashioned by British wizards at the time. His work— His own methods of locating wand woods and core substances, marrying them together, and matching them to ideal owners caused jealousy at the other wandmakers. The shop— Garrick possessed excellent business skills, being highly able to successfully operate and manage his own wand shop for at least sixty years. Fun fact: He keeps a peacock as a pet.
