Liam's Origin Story
Liam's Origin Story
Liam was born to Prian and Sarah Tallworth, two full blood wizards living near. London. His parents died when he was still a baby, killed in a crossfire between Aurors and Death Eaters, back during Lord Voldemort's first rise to power. Separated from his parents, Liam was unable to be properly identified, and wound up being adopted by another couple, who moved with him to Western Canada. There, he was raised as one of their own children, growing up with a step-brother and step-sister. When he was 9, Liam began to show his magical aptitude, so his adoptive parents began making arrangements to have him enrolled at the Salem Witchcraft Academy, America's top magic school. An opportunity arrived, however, in the form of a letter sent from his step-dad's friend back in England, one Arthur Weasley. It turned out that there was a rare opening at Hogwart's School for Witchcraft & Wizardry, his parent's old Alma Matter, and Arthur was willing to sponsor Liam if he chose to attend. Being ever-curious about the mystery of his real parents, Liam accepted the offer, hoping that it would give him a chance to start digging into his past. When he turned 11, Liam said goodbye to his step-family, and headed to England. He stayed with the Weasley's untill the school term began, quickly making friends with the two older Weasley boys, Bill and Charlie. They all went to. Diagonal Alley for their school supplies, and Liam purchased himself a beautiful young Snowy Owl, that he named. Flakes. When school started, Liam soon became far too distracted in learning magic, to even think of his family mystery. He ended up in Gryffendor House, along with his friends the Weasley's, and also discovered that he had exceptional skills as a Quiddich Beater. That skill landed him his first job once he'd graduated, playing for the Puddleby United Quiddich team. He also took up jogging, something that his step-parents had been into, and something that many of his English friends thought unusual since he was so skilled on a broomstick. A couple years after school, he met some new friends who all lived together in a large and well-kept castle, not far from Hogwart's, Hogsmead, and the Dark Forest, and was invited to take rooms there. Liam not only accepted graciously, but he also used his interest in different forms of magic to help explore, map, and guard the castle and it's grounds. He took to jogging through the Dark Forest at least twice a week, and it was only a year or so after moving in, that he was one day attacked while jogging by a particularly large and wild werewolf, becoming infected in the process. At first, he tried to keep the wolf inside him at bay by taking potions that suppressed the influence of the full moons, but eventually learned to master his new form and abilities. Unfortunately though, once the International. Quiddich Society learned of his affliction, they put pressure on Puddleby United to dismiss him from the team. Liam was so upset and enraged by the IQS and through them the Ministry of Magic's predjudism against. Non and semi-humans, that he became a lobbyist against it, taking a new position with a semi and non human rights group called VIDA, or the Vampires International Defense League. During his time there, Liam spent a lot of time going through Ministry records, and it was there that he finally solved the mystery of his past. In an old news article, he found a story of a battle between Aurors and Death Eaters where a lot of innocents had been killed. Since many of those innocents had been goblins and house elves, the Ministry had brushed the investigation aside. But among the humans who were killed, were a young wizarding couple, found lying next to an empty stroller with no infant to be found nearby. Liam frantically backtracked the story through several different newspapers, and eventually found a photo of the couple and their new son. Liam couldn't believe his eyes, for the husband in the photo bore an eerily striking likeness to himself. After enlisting some legal aid, along with a bit of inside help from a couple of his friends at the castle who worked within the Ministry, Liam was able to prove that he was in fact the missing heir to the Tallworth estate. Finally, Liam had solved the mystery, and had also gained an ancestral home he'd never known in the form of a large mansion and grounds just outside of Hogsmead, including a crotchety old house elf name Creeper. Liam lived comfortably for a while after that, getting used to living in the mansion while still frequently visiting his friends over at the castle. He even started taking on some freelance work, tracking and hunting rogue and feral werewolves that were too wild to function in normal society. Around that time, Liam met and fell in love with a young woman named Thunto Crouch, daughter of Theresa and Barty Crouch Jr.. It wasn't untill after Thunto had become pregnant, that Liam learned that the Crouches were more than they appeared. Barty was actually an alien time traveller called The Doctor. Thunto had a little of both her parent's abilities, as well as the power to change into a wolf. It was in that form that Liam's son was born. Liam named the boy Prian, after his departed father, while. Thunto named his wolf aspect Gaothan, meaning the winds in Gaelic. Prian, being born as a wolf cub, was a handful to look after. Even more so, when the boy had an unusual growth spurt a few months after his birth. Virtually overnight, Prian grew from a baby to a young boy, appearing about 8-10 years old. Another few months after that, Prian experienced another growth spurt, skipping his teen years and turning into a handsome young man of around 25 or so. Prian also began displaying magical skills that were far beyond anything Liam could possibly understand. Not long after his second growth spurt, Prian fell in love with one of Liam's younger friends at the castle and moved in with her. Liam used the freedom to bury himself deeper and deeper into his magical studies, untill he became neglectful of his son, not understanding how to relate to him anymore. During their time at the manor, though, they acquired a few interesting animal friends. One was a Siberian White Tiger that Liam named Kyan, who became one of Prian's closest playmates and companions. The other was a beautiful rainbow coloured dragon, that The Doctor's son Bart had given them, which Liam named Pandemonium, or simply Pan for short. Pan is a highly intelligent dragon, and something of a companion and teacher to Prian. Not long after Prian moved out, Thunto disappeared, lost in a time travel accident. Liam mourned for her for a couple years, untill he found another lover, this one a vampire. During the course of their relationship, Liam was carefull not to be bitten by her. He had taken long enough coming to terms with being a werewolf, and did not want the extra problems of being a vampire hybrid. One day, he was helping his son do some maintenance. On a time machine Prian's grandfather had left him, when an accident launched them into the past. When they managed to get back, they learned that they'd been declared dead, and that their friends and family had moved on with their lives. Now they must start all over again, and try to forget the heartache of lost loves. When in wolf form, Liam goes by the pack name Mist, and his coat is silvery grey.
