[attr="class","ajbdbst"]PERSONALITY

[attr="class","ajbdbsb"]

Disciplined[break]
Raised in a wealthy pureblood family that clings to the old ways, Kody was brought up to control every aspect of himself. It isn't necessarily always effective, because sometimes his anger breaks thought, but for the most part he's good at hiding away what he really thinks and holds himself with poise.[break][break]
Punctual[break]
A trait that runs in his family, Kody makes it a point to always be early to meetings or other events. It gives him the chance to scope the place out and get himself settled out of the eye of whoever he's meeting with. It also holds up his prim and proper appearance. [break][break]
Ambitious[break]
Although this also runs in his family, Kody embraces his desire to climb to the top. He's also not afraid to step on people to get there if that's what it takes. He puts his all into whatever goal he's working towards and more often than not gets it. [break][break]
Old-Fashioned[break]
Being raised in a family that still clings to the old ways, Kody can sometimes be old-fashioned, especially when it comes to things like blood status. He was brought up with a certain way of thinking about it and it's not something that he's entirely shed, though he has gotten better at hiding what he really thinks. [break][break]
Arrogant[break]
Kody isn't afraid to boast about his accomplishes to boost himself up to other people. He thinks very highly of himself because he's from an old, rich family and he's done well enough for himself since graduating and entering the adult world. [break][break]
Steely[break]
When Kody gets angry, he gets angry. While his face doesn't go red like many people, his voice goes sharper than he normally allows, though it's usually quite sharp to begin with. It's earned him quite a few quavering looks over the years, and he kind of prides himself on it.[break][break]

[attr="class","ajbdbst"]HISTORY

[attr="class","ajbdbsb"]

Kody was born in January 1985 to Alexandre and Fiona Bélanger. From the get go, he's kind of a spoiled brat, and it becomes even more apparent when his first sister is born in 1987. Unused to not being the center of attention, Kody doesn't take the change well and resents his little sister for the first couple years of her life. Thankfully he's mellowed out on that by 1991 when his second sister is born. [break][break]
Growing up, Kody had an awful temper, so much that his sisters were both afraid of upsetting him once they got old enough to catch the brunt of it. It also meant that he was a bit of a bully when he first got to Hogwarts where he was sorted into Slytherin to no one's surprise. At the time, though, no one really batted an eyelash at his behavior since the world was in the middle of the second war against Voldemort which ended at the end of Kody's second year. After that things went a lot more smoothly for him, though it was clear there was a shift in how the world thought and that the way he'd been brought up was dying out quickly. [break][break]
Around the time Kody was fifteen, his parents started talking about trying to find him an acceptable girl to be his future wife, though Kody had no interest in an arranged marriage. Luckily he managed to put their plans to bed when he found a girl that he had feelings for that they also approved of. [break][break]
Kody and Camille dated for many years, starting from the time Kody was sixteen. Being older, he graduated before her and started building his career while she did her last year of school. But they were happy together, something Kody hadn't been sure he'd get to have since he knew how much a proper match mattered to his parents. [break][break]
A few years later, Kody finally decided to propose to Camille and she said yes. However, they don't get a chance to get married before Camille tells him that she's pregnant. A few months after that, Kody finds himself losing both Camille and their unborn daughter to an unforeseen complication that gets caught too late. To cope with the massive amount of grief he's suddenly slammed with, Kody takes to the bottle.[break][break]
From that moment, he starts to spiral downwards with alcohol abuse any time he's feeling particularly sorry for himself or thinking of Camille. He never lets it affect his job, though, making sure to perform as decently as he ever had and keeping the drinking to his home. Every so often he has a brief moment of wanting to stop, but then he just goes right back to it and has stuck by that for ten years now.
