---BACKGROUND---
Heritage: Pure-blood
Family: His father, Blaine. Mother, Tamsen. His dad has one brother(Diesel) and his mother is an only child. He has one cousin, Jessica who is 16.
Siblings: One sister, Constance, 15.
History: The Duke family came from the rather large city of Brisbane where Harley's parents worked at the ministry of magic, his father an auror, and his mother working as a spokes witch. Harley never like the higher class of company that his parents detailed, and liked to practice shooting with his uncle. His uncle, Diesel taught him to be strong, and Harley knew how to look after himself, which often followed through in other aspects of his life.
Harley was usually found sorting out confrontations at school, he didn't like people picking on others, and he often stuck up for the little guy. Little did he know it back then, he had defensive precognition, and many times he would come out of a fight the victor.
On one such occasion, he found himself looking upon a few boys, beating up another behind the bike shed after school, like always, he stood in, and used his fighting prowess to overpower the bullies. After that, Padril and himself were good friends, and while Harley was strong, Padril was smart, cunning and tricky.
Even though they were good friends, Harley was forced to move to Britain because of his fathers work, and he was cut off from his old friend. However this separation was short lived, because on the first day of Hogwarts, he met back up with Padril, and they became friends once again. From that day on, they would always be pulling pranks together, and Harley found that he was quite the duelist. They would always look out for each other, Padril got into a fight, Harley wasn't far behind, Harley was in trouble, Padril would destroy the opposition from the inside, in his own special way.
All this remained the same until their seventh year, and by this stage, they had made sure that they had kept some sort of a name within their respective groups. Harley found that Padril was a little more sly than he was, he lied first, he tricked first, and he argued first. This didn't bother Harley in the least, after all, Padril didn't lie to him, so why should he bother? By now he has recognized his defensive precognition and he knows now why he always wins a fight.
His Grandfather owned a Manor in Hogsmeade, however, when he passed away, he handed it down to Harley, he would have given it to his father, but they already had a nice home in Britain, and were too busy to use the one in Hogsmeade, so for Harley's 17th birthday, he was permitted to live in the house. This acts as a HQ to all of Padril and Harley's ventures, their next prank, a cool spell, a new potion, and it also hold a great many books in the library. However, he doesn't live in it full time, and stays at the school some nights, mostly because he couldn't be bothered to go home.
