The Thompsons are considered quite the pedigree family. Due to some interesting business going on many generations ago, any pure blooded family member can be found to have golden yellow eyes and, if the member is a successful animagus, the color of the animal is entirely or nearly all black.
To marry a half blood or muggle is fine. To breed with them is possibly the most wretched thing one can do in this family. With the odd magic flowing through the veins, equally odd offspring can result if blood is mixed. While excellent vision is a typical trait of the pureblooded Thompson, a mixed blood may have quite horrible vision or even be blind. Colorblindness has also been noted.
The typical Thompson sticks to finding mates within their own house; Ravenclaw. Nonetheless, some stray to Slytherin, who are often equally intelligent and add some interesting traits. Gryffindors aren't considered to be of any worth to a Thompson. Offspring between a Thompson and a Hufflepuff is looked down upon, as the house is considered bland and distasteful.
Common traits: Black hair (wavy or curly), yellow-golden eyes. Excellent sight. Short, muscular, stocky. Broad faced, prominent cheek bones. Polite, well mannered, egotistical. Intelligent.
Common House: Ravenclaw
Blood: Pure
Common Areas of study: Transfiguration, Quidditch
