## Appearance

A born Metamorphmagus, James has the ability to change his physical appearance at will, including his age and sex. Since a young age, James appears to be a gangling man, with a wan complexion and awkward movements. His natural features further this, as he has thin, uncombed black hair; tired, rheumy hazel eyes; and pallid skin, which is related to his undiagnosed autism. In addition to these, he is underweight and in other poor health, such as having dark circles under his eyes from his poor sleep habits, and fatigue from his alcoholism.

However, most people are not aware of his true self, including himself to a degree, as he subconsciously carries a healthier image in order to mask his problems. Part of this was ingrained in him by his parents, who were Muggles and repudiated his powers, including his magic later on. Within an hour of being born, his hair had changed colors, and this began what would be a very oppressed life for James.

Like other Metamorphmagi, James’ emotional state can affect his appearance and abilities. Growing up, James sported a yellowish hair color, which his parents passed off as blonde, in spite of their own black hair. It represented his natural curiosity as a child, but it was quick to change to blues (sadness), reds (anger), and back to black, which could be perceived as his natural hair color or a negative moodlet (though, the former would imply that he would be unable to retain other features he currently had changed). Other colors include greens for jealousy or a similar unhappiness, pinks for embarrassment or attraction, purples for fear, and grays for confusion or mixed emotions. This is not always an accurate telling to his moods.

During his early teenage years, his hair had taken on a bubblegum pink color after he became enthralled with the biography of Nymphadora Tonks, another Metamorphmagus that fought and died in the Second Wizarding War. This carried throughout his Hogwarts years, despite the bullying he received for it as he got older (especially due to his later homophobic qualities).

After graduation, James’ hair had finally settled to a light blue, which is still the default he uses to this day. Additionally, he gives himself a more masculine appearance, as his frail structure makes him have very angular features and slenderness of feminine-reminiscence. He therefore morphs a more chiseled jaw-structure, wide shoulders, and most notably, his poofy hair, in a similar hairstyle to a pompadour.

A more serious and latent reason to his healthy appearance is his need to hide the physical abuse he endured as a child, when he would regularly cover bruises, scars, and marks. This extends to his weight issue, as he was neglected to the point he was underweight and malnourished. During Hogwarts, he regained some of his strength when he initially detached himself emotionally and took up drinking, recreational drugs, and frequent physical altercations. In current time, he is once again more sickly, though it is due to his mental health that makes him forget or not want to eat or care for himself well.

Attire-wise, James dresses very conservatively (in spite of the fact he could make himself handsome and show off his body), due to the sexual molestation he experienced at the local church he attended evening bible study sessions for. He not only tries to further cover up his childhood abuse, but he also does not feel comfortable anymore attracting a lot of sexual attention.

Typically, James wears a long-sleeved button-down shirt, dark sweater vest, colored skinny jean pants (usually red), a tie, and gray converse. He also has three gray jackets he alternates in wearing, though each have a yellow planet and ring embroidered on the left-breast. One has a high-collar, zipper, and stripes that extends from the collar down each sleeve. The second has a wing collar, buttons down the front, and similar stripes to the wrist. The third has a flat collar, zipper, and no stripes, but elastic around the wrists for a custom fit. James also has hipster-frame glasses, which he changes around for different colors and shapes.

Overall, James has a very rebellious appearance, with his blue hair and hipster aesthetic, despite being a private doctor. When he is not in formal wear, he wears t-shirts that typically say silly phrases like “S.O.S.” and “Pluto is not a real planet.”
