Mackenzie MacDonald

From Absit Omen Lexicon

Mackenzie is a cold-hearted, revenge-seeking man who has had all he loved ripped away from him. He is almost never smiling, and he is very strong and intelligent.

History

The poor Palmer MacDonald had many wives who had left him, before he met the faithful and loyal Milly Fraser. Milly loved Palmer, and always would, and Palmer felt the same. Palmer was married for the last time, and an only child was born. Mackenzie was a strange but funny child who loved to have fun. He lived in a rickety house with his mother and father.

The family had little to no money, and all of Mackenzie's close relatives lived far away in Bantry, Ireland, so the MacDonald's young son usually had no one to play with; his father was always at work and his mother as well. But when they could be together, no family could have been tighter.

However, the family began to crumble. Palmer fell deeply ill, and he passed, taking Milly with him. Mackenzie was then left alone in the property. He went to an orphanage; his aunts and uncles lacked responsibility and funds to support a child. Mackenzie began to have more sadness than happiness on a daily basis.

When Hogwarts came into his view, he wasn't very happy about it. His years in the school of witchcraft and wizardry would have been the best years of his life if he wasn't an orphan in a lonely world, and instead of appreciating the services the school gave, he hated every bit of it, and failed most of his classes. He was a Gryffindor, and he hated everyone in his house. There were a few kids who wanted to befriend him, but he turned them away. He only wanted to be alone. So when the holidays came by, he stayed at Hogwarts, wanting minimal contact with people in general.

He had poor relationships with his professors, due to his failing their classes and ignoring their teachings. Mackenzie visited his professors after class nearly every day for lectures about morals and what is funny and what is mean and whatever else he had done. He only had one class that he loved and excelled in. Defense Against the Dark Arts was his best class, especially since he got to expel his anger on evil creatures. His patronus was a wolf, and rightfully so.

As a teenager, he was a prankster, dying robes purple and releasing magical creatures into the school. And the pranking carried on once he left Hogwarts, but in the form of crime and vandalization. His cover as a dragon keeper is not used too much, he prefers to stay hidden during the daylight hours. His few friends were the only light in his dark world, making him laugh and joking around with him. He only had fun with his buddies. His job as a dragon keeper is simply a profession he pretends to have, he is a smuggler, and earns money from illegal sales.
