CHARACTER HISTORY
------------------------------------------------------------
Early Years: Corey was born into a large house in the country side a few miles outside of Dublin, Ireland. Being an only child, he was indeed spoiled but also had more expectations placed upon him. Spending mornings and afternoons going through fencing training, rune reading, and art critiquing, his evenings were more relaxed occasions, sometimes even going out into the meadow and playing with his father and the few wizarding kids that lived in the area.
At the age of ten, he got his first, and only pet, Alzhir the snake. Corey felt an attachment to the creature that was only rivaled by what he felt for his parents, and later on his late fiancee. It took some years, but Corey eventually trained the snake the way one trains a dog; pain when it did bad, good when it did well. This also improved his quickness overall, because a slapped snake has a tendency to try and strike when it's slapped for the first few times.
Hogwarts Years: At Hogwarts Corey was sorted into Slytherin, and it was there where he learned to shape and sharpen the tools of cunning and charm; the power of a few words. But it was also during this year that he got his two biggest injuries, the ripped up face after a seventh year Gryffindor assaulted him after curfew one night in one of the astronomy towers. The other was the big black burn in his chest.
During his second year, he made his first real friends, and started gaining the respect and fear from other students. He was not yet as ruthless, or powerful as he would become, but the tendencies first started showing up around then. The highlight of this was breaking a third year Ravenclaw's arms.
Third year was a complete turn-around, as this was when he met and got together with his first and only love to this point in time. It was during this period that he started a small transformation; he was still as coldblooded, cunning, and still becoming more powerful by the day, but he lost the brutality and quickness to act.
His fourth year was much the same; in fact it was during Corey's summer break after the year when things started to go back uphill/downhill. One day while walking around one of the graveyards in Dublin, he came across the very same Gryffindor, who was now a man, that gave him the scars on his face. A small battled ensued inside the small, dark area, but Corey came out on top, leaving the man in a already used grave.
Fifth year was a difficult time, and due to the murder he had committed and the lack of knowledge Hogwarts had left to teach Corey, he transferred over to Durmstrang, still keeping in touch with his girlfriend though writing. There he learned the most apt areas of the Dark Arts, and quickly rose to the rank of prefect and eventually head boy while there. This was when his violence, power, and abilities as a dueler rose to even higher limits.
The only other thing of note here is that due to some extremely powerful magic, he was able to turn himself into an Animagus, the form of which is an Irish Wolfhound.
Adulthood: After graduation, he moved his girlfriend over into Norway, where he got a job for himself as a cursebreaker at the Gringotts located in the country. Settling down, he finally got engaged to his longtime girlfriend, and was on the way to becoming a father. This was however, where the good things stopped.
A group of Norwegian aurors, who had gotten word of his crimes in England and Ireland, came to apprehend him at his home in Oslo. Ordering his fiancee into a back room, he drew his wand and dueled with the three dark wizard catchers, seriously injuring one and stunning the other. However, the Auror had fired a Expulso hex at the grandfather clock, which blew up the wall to the master bedroom, killing Corey's fiancee and unborn child.
After barely escaping the wreckage alive, he contacted an old and powerful friend in the city, asking her to break him out of the prison after he let them catch him. The fight was gone from him, and after surrendering he served two years in Numengard. This was the most painful time for him as a person, for there was no escape from the pain and memories of the unfortunate events. But, like everything else in his past, this served to strengthen him, burning away almost all feeling left inside him.
After the hasty break out, Corey came back to England, and that is where the story is at now.
