Personal: Tom Marvolo Riddle, was born on 31 December, New Years Eve, 1926 at Wool's Orphanage in London. His pure-blood mother, Merope Gaunt, a direct descendant of Salazar Slytherin, died shortly after his birth. Soon before her death, she named the child after his father, Tom Riddle Sr., and Marvolo Gaunt, her father. Tom Riddle Sr. was a wealthy Muggle living in the village of Little Hangleton who was tricked into a relationship with Merope through possible use of a Love Potion.
Tom Riddle grew up in a dingy orphanage, completely unaware of his wizarding heritage. He did have some grasp on his abilities beyond that of normal magical children of his same age, however, as well as an unusually high degree of control over them. Tom could move objects with his mind and cause them to travel floating wherever he wished, manipulate animals and creatures as he wished, speak Parseltongue, and use his power to inflict harm on other orphans.
As a child at Hogwarts, and in the early years of his adult life, Riddle was an intelligent, polite person who showed an enthusiasm to learn. He described himself as poor, but brilliant, parent-less, but so brave, a school prefect, a model student.
After Graduating from Hogwarts Tom applied for the Defence Against the Dark Arts position and has been working at Hogwarts since then. Tom has gotten wind of the Deathly Hallows and is currently researching possibilities of their whereabouts.
