Stephen Britton Cornfoot
Character Biography

Character's Name: Stephen Britton Cornfoot
Age: 26
Birthdate: October 25, 1979
Family background: Stephen was the youngest child born to Robert and Elena Cornfoot. His father is an investor in several large corporations and sits on the Board of Directors at Gringotts, while his mother is the perfect society wife. He has both an older brother and older sister, both of whom made acceptable Pureblood marriages. His brother Marcus married Ariadne Demarchelier, a distant cousin of Lucius Malfoy, and his sister Eleanor married Nikolai Romanov, a descendant of the late Russian imperial family. While both his parents are firm believers in blood purity, they did not align with Voldemort, choosing to keep the family out of the war. Stephen, on the other hand, has been threatened with disinheritance several times if he doesn't straighten up and do the family proud, something that doesn't particularly interest him.
Bloodline: (Pureblood,Half-blood, Muggle born - and does it matter to your character?) Pureblood, and it doesn't matter to Stephen nearly as much as it matters to his parents.
Political Views: Apathetic.



Appearance
Visual Representation: (attach several pictures please) Shane West
Description: Stephen is built about average, but leaning towards muscular from his days playing Quidditch for his house team and he stands about six feet tall. He has short, spiky brown hair and piercing blue eyes. He also has several tattoos, mostly acquired during his rebellious years. (Oh, what the hell? They're still going on.)



Psychology and Personality
Sexuality: Stephen likes sex. Sex with women, specifically.
Strengths and Weaknesses: Stephen is very good at reading people. He has a gift, so to speak, of being able to tell when someone's not being truthful. He's also very loyal to his group of friends (mostly his Ravenclaw housemates, although he does have several friends outside of his House) and is fun to be around. He trusts very few people but for the few he does trust, he would lay his life down for them. He's very sarcastic and curses often (although never around women). 
Habits\Quirks: He's meticulously tidy and his home and office both reflect that. Tends to walk around with a smirk or bored expression on his face.
Likes\Dislikes: Likes cigars, Quidditch, loud rock music, women, a good book. Dislikes "fake" people, his parents, hangovers, Mondays.



Lifestyle
Occupation: Quidditch commentator for the WWN, also holds several shares in the family investments
Financial Status: Wealthy
Residence: A flat in Knightsbridge, London



History from student days at Hogwarts to the present time:

Even though his father expressly forbid him from getting involved, Stephen fought with the DA and the Order of the Phoenix at the Battle of Hogwarts. (A fact which his parents grudgingly admit was a good idea, as it gave the family a bit more distance from the blood purists who sided with Voldemort). Following family tradition, he took a year after finishing Hogwarts and went to Australia, where he was taught the finer points of managing his uncle's nightclub in Sydney. Stephen found that he very much liked the laid-back mentality of the Aussies, so he stayed there until his father summoned him home (just before his twenty-first birthday). Upon his return, he heard about the possibility of a job as a Quidditch commentator for the WWN. The position appealed to him because it involved both Quidditch and not working for his family, two things which ranked high on his priority list. After two interviews and an audition, he was hired and has been doing the job ever since.
