Hello, I am Aquarius Crouch, son of Maximus Crouch, who is the brother of Bartemius Crouch. Yes, the Bartemius Crouch, not the junior one, who, I might add, is dead.  Poor guy, no one knows if he was a Death Eater or not. Anyways, back to my uncle. Yes, he's the Bartemius Crouch who ascended very quickly through the Ministry at a time when many people were dying all over Britain. He's the Crouch who caught dozens of Death Eaters and put them in Azkaban, including his son. He actually was the Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, and everyone thought he was going to become the next Minister for Magic.

  But ... an unfortunate scandal happened. His son, the one who might just have been in the wrong place at the wrong time, died. Crouch's wife died as well, of grief. So ... one moment, a hero, poised to become the Minister of Magic, next moment, his wife dead, his son dead, his family name dishonored. Then, people felt sorry for the son of Barty Crouch, and everyone asked the same question: Why would such a nice lad from a nice family would go so badly astray?

  At last, it was all decided that he never had a caring father, so Cornelius Fudge got the job of Minister of Magic, and Bartemius Crouch, once a hero, was shunted aside to the Department of International Co-operation, or whatever the hell it is called.

   Well, this year, I will be going to Hogwarts, the supposed best school of Witchcraft and Wizarding in the world. I hope I have fun, learn shit-tons of things, and even more importantly, make new friends. Well, see you at Platform Nine and Three-Quarters!
