Character History:

Born shortly before the return of Voldemort, Tiberius (or Tib) was raised by his mother to respect pureblood beliefs and qualities, though he doesn't follow them very much. He was the first born of three siblings, and though he wanted to be very much like his father, he never saw the man. He watched the strain that it put on his mother when his father was not around and watched as her heart slowly broke, despite having two more children to try and patch things together. He vowed to never do that to himself, or his family. It was what made him run from any sort of commitment.

He had his first chance at magic when he was eight years old, he was playing and he wanted to hear music, it was all he could think about, so he stared at the radio for a long while in the hopes that he could turn it on like his Mum, but it didn't work, instead the radio, the drapes and the wall caught on fire. He received a burn on his inner right arm just below the elbow as a result from it, which he is very self conscious about. In Hogwarts he was sorted into Slytherin, though he wasn't exactly sure that he needed to be there. He had more friends there than he could count because of his blood status, but then things changed and some people refused to talk to him because of his blood status, because he was a pureblood. However, because of his father and the fame that the man had, many stayed. After all when your father is the lead guitarist for the best band in history.

After finishing school he and a few mates got together, goofing off and formed a band while they were in Lufkin. It started out simply as them playing for fun, then they had a few gigs and things sort of took off. They dropped out of school and things have just taken off over the last year or so. In 2015 his parents got a divorce and the band took a small break, writing music for a while. His mum took up being the stylist and things just got better and better since then. In October of 2016 the Death Eaters took over, and his family found it's way back into glory. It was rather exciting, because it helped launch them even more into the limelight, and Tib used what he could, the connections that they had to get gigs and deals. Since then he has been working his arse off writing music and living life like there was no tomorrow.

Plots and Politics
What is your character’s stance on the recent takeover of the Ministry by Death Eaters? Tib thinks that it was a good thing, that while he doesn't agree with everything that the Death Eaters stand for, he knows that Durant was bloody crazy, and they are better off as they are now.

Where did your character stand in the treatment of Death Eaters and their families under the late Minister Durant's rule? Tib thinks that he got everything that he deserved.

How was your character and their family affected by the reign and death of Voldemort? Tiberius' couin, @kurt , is a Death Eater and his Mum came from a family that supports them. His father didn't care so much, but as a Pureblood he upheld their traditions.

Family History:
Theirs is a love story that is not common for pureblood's. Kirley was the lead guitarist for The Weird Sisters and a bit of an exhibitionist. He loved to make a show, just like the rest of the band. It was how he met Courtney. She was a fan, and a friend of a friend of a friend introduced them at a party. He was glad to meet the pretty brunette and she was so flattered that he talked to her. She gushed and he grinned crowing like the cocky fool that he was. A dance lead to a kiss, and a kiss lead to the date. They married in the spring of 1990 when the Weird Sisters were at the height of their fame.

Courtney fawned and swooned over her husband (and still does to the day), she fell for him hard and Kirley learned to care about her, though he was never truly faithful. They put their son through Hogwarts, and had two other children before a quiet divorce in 2015. They keep in close contact, leaving their family unit intact. Kirley dates around, Courtney doesn't devoting her life to her children, working as the first manager for her sons band, and then as the stylist for the band.
