Arrow Thatcher is a slightly darker character than the fabled Robin Goodfellow - or Puck. He likes to pit people against each other, play jokes, and is an unreadable person. But he has a good heart, it will just take a special person to make him reveal it.
History
Growing up for Arrow was rough. His father wasn't a rich man and his mother preferred to pretend neither of them existed. Arrow's mother was an aristocratic lady who had a weak moment with some Firewhiskey and the butler's son. It meant nothing to her and as soon as the baby was born and was found to be a boy, he was promptly given to his father with a money pouch full of galleons and told to disappear.
Arrow's father took him home and tried his best to make the galleons last, but shortly before his 3rd birthday, Gavin spent the last one to buy his son a birthday present.
After that Arrow was frequently left with the elderly lady down the road as his father went out to look for odd jobs. He couldn't hold down a steady job with raising a small boy, so he moved around a lot leaving his son with strangers. Arrow grew to learn how to make people do what he wanted with a flash of his smile and a sweet word.
As he grew into his Hogwarts years Arrow made friends quickly and lost them just as quickly. He stole a girlfriend or two and got into a fistfight with one boyfriend and a duel with the other. He did decent in his studies, only doing enough work to pass, but secretly studying every spell he could come across that would aid in his trickster lifestyle.
When he was 14 his father didn't come back, leaving Arrow to fend for himself. He still stayed with the elderly woman that his father often left him with, but during the summer and all breaks, he would roam around the nearest town, or just stay in Hogsmeade and watch people. At 15 his mother finally decided she wanted to claim him as her son and started a bank account at Gringotts for him with more galleons than he could ever hope to need. He scoffed at her attempts, he hadn't needed a mother before, why would he want one now. He didn't have to wait long though, at 16 she got caught in crossfire between her brother and her father and she died from a cutting curse. The money was fully in his name, so he was a very rich teenager.
After graduating from Hogwarts he didn't really know what to do, he remembered he had money now. He didn't spend it like most teenagers would, but used it to buy himself a decent 2 bedroom house in the country-side and had the floo connected, not like he had anybody yet that would like to visit. He began roaming the streets of Hogsmeade and Diagon Alley, sometimes even Knockturn Alley and picking up bits and pieces of information. This 'hobby' came in very handy when people would catch him listening or he found the person who was being talked about and he offered to stay quiet for a price.
Now he's 19 and still has no clue if he ever wants to get a job, he is enjoying his free-living lifestyle and has no desire to change things.
