-An opportunity to play pranks on people

Background
----------------------------
Edan was adopted as a baby. His birth mother was a witch whose birth control potion had, somehow, failed; at the age of 20 and unwed, she didn’t want to have children and knew she wouldn’t be able to provide a stable home for her child. Deciding not to get an abortion, she instead gave him up for adoption the moment he was born, not even giving him a name.
He was adopted by Lauren and Eric Ward, who already had two other children -- five year old twins, Cooper and Audrina. When he was five, his parents adopted a two year old girl, completing the family. His parents were always very open, and from the moment he was old enough to understand, he was told he was adopted -- not because he was lesser of their son, but because they felt he had a right to know his origins and that, no matter what happened in life, he was chosen and wanted. The environment Edan was raised in, therefore, was always warm and loving, and he grew up happy.
He was ten when his birth mother, with permission of his parents, contacted him. Maryanne was no longer a wild 20 year old, having settled down a few years previously with a man. She had three children of her own and her one regret was never having been involved with Edan.
Having no ill feelings about her, Edan agreed to visiting her one weekend where he was introduced to his step-siblings and his stepfather. Maryanne refused to allow Edan to call her ‘mum’, telling him that she gave up that right when she gave him up despite his parents being the ones who suggested he call her that; instead, he calls her ‘Aunty’.
He visits them almost every weekend and is very content with the rather odd situation.
His father has four other siblings and his mother has three, so Edan is used to large family gatherings where his older cousins (from different parts of the world, and therefore attend other magic schools) often give him prompters on what pranks he can pull.
