Physical Description
A little man with wicked black eyes that narrow and squint with mischief and a wide mouth from which he sticks out his tongue in taunting fashion floats cross-legged in the air. His small form darts and hovers effortlessly with chaotic energy while his face twists into impish expressions as he prepares to drop objects or cause trouble. As Hogwarts resident poltergeist this small airborne troublemaker has a pale translucent quality to his skin and a wiry build that perfectly suits his role as the castle's eternal prankster. An ethereal poltergeist with a wide wicked face locked in a broad, malicious grin, bobbing overhead in perpetual motion. Bright orange party hat sits askew atop wild hair, paired with a frantically revolving bow tie and mismatched colorful garb. His form lacks ghostly pallor or transparency, brimming with vibrant chaotic energy. Presence crackles with gleeful anarchy, ready to unleash havoc. An ethereal poltergeist with a translucent, pale blue form that floats effortlessly, often upside down with curly-toed feet wiggling playfully. His wild face grins maniacally with sharp teeth and wide cackling mouth, dressed in tattered bell-bottomed trousers and a waistcoat. He moves with boisterous energy, leaving trails of mischief in his wake.
