He usually spends his time researching and writing his collection of folklore and stories, but he's not one to pass up a fun time, especially when he can get life stories from them. He knows when to be charming, and he knows when to be humble, and after he graduates he plans on getting his collections published.
Father: Patrick Riddell, wizard deceased, affiliation unknown
Mother: Corinna, Muggle drunk
Siblings: 2 younger brothers, Pat and Geordie. Pat died, Geordie's in a university level below him.
History: Christy and his brothers never really knew their father. Though Christy was the oldest, even he couldn't tell you the first about his dad except that he apparently didn't love his family enough to stay. He was constantly gone, and Christy had never been told to where. One day, he simply never came home. His Muggle mother took to drinking, drugs, and whatever - and whoever - else she could get her hands on. It was only after Christy made it through wizarding school that he found out exactly who his dad was in life, and that, as an Auror, he had made a lot of enemies. One finally took an opportunity and snuffed him out. Now Christy and his brothers harbor their father no ill will, and Pat even went into training to become an Auror himself. He went chasing the worst of the worse and before long Christy and his brother were burying him as well. While they have posthumously made amends with their dad, their mother is still a very sore topic with both brothers.
Veritiserum: He sometimes thinks his cat Saskia talks to him...
