Pet Description: Niko is a very large, fully grown black panther. Caliban found him as a cub, and he has raised him ever since. He senses things more than most animals will, and will alert Cal to danger. He doesn't warm up to most people easily, but if he does, you are special. His usual greeting is snarling, but if he purrs or licks you or wants to be petted, you will definitely become fast friends with both him and Cal.
Biography: Cal grew up with an older half-brother, Niko, who was five years older than himself. His brother was tall, skinny, tanned, had long blonde hair that fell in a braid down his back, and was the ideal son. He was highly intelligent, and his only constant worry was keeping Cal safe and sound. Their mother, the only parent in common, didn't really care for her sons. To her, they just dragged her down, and they were failures. Or, moreso, they were a memory of her own mistakes. She preferred to get drunk all the time or something.
Niko's father was pretty much the average 'con-man', but he was, of course, a wizard con. Oh, so much better. He had never been a Death Eater, but he had been thrown into Azkaban for killing a few people. He claimed it was self-defense, although they never did anything to him. Apparently, they just annoyed him. Something along the lines of asked him for a light? Ah, at any rate, he's long gone. Maybe even dead, and Niko doesn't much care.
Cal's father, on the other hand, is one of the worst bad boys you can ever hope to meet. He is in the inner circle of Death Eaters. I mean, he's one of the top dogs. You know, close to second-in-command, that sort of thing. Well, Cal's mother just sees him as a huge mistake, and she couldn't be more ready to get rid of him when Niko took him and left. Though that night, their mother died in a fire in their home. Cal and Niko were shocked, but they weren't devastated. She had never done anything for them, but still, she was their mother.
Cal moved in with Niko as he went into a training school for wizards out of school. They were both excellent at martial arts, and Niko was training to be an auror of sorts. More like the 'secret police', I suppose. He was just to keep low and not reveal his position or anything. He was among the 'elite guard', if you so wished to call them. Cal, on the other hand, was sent to Durmstrang for the time being. He attended there from his third year to his sixth year. His first two years had been spent at Hogwarts.
After his sixth year, his brother was moved to France, and Cal followed him. He didn't much mind the change, seeing as most of his friends had either left Durmstrang or had graduated. He was basically alone there, and so the change of scenery did him good. He was enrolled into Beauxbatons, and he spent the remaining time with his brother as they set up the house and everything. His pet panther, Niko, was named after his brother, of course. It reminded Cal of him, and it had been a gift for his birthday one year. He bid his brother farewell before getting on the train to head to Beauxbatons Academy of Magic.
Personality: Cal is a pretty laid-back guy. He isn't too trusting of people he doesn't know, but he isn't so uptight that he will avoid anyone and everyone he's never met before. He enjoys sitting on his own and reading, but it isn't a huge deal to him. It's more just a pasttime that he will participate in on occasion. He loves martial arts, and he will be found practicing in the gym from time to time. Though, he much prefers to hang out with his friends. He may not be a huge social butterfly, but he isn't some shy, secluded kid. He prefers to have someone to talk to rather than be alone at any time, and his friends are his life, along with his brother. Mess with them, and you will regret it.
Cal isn't big on morals and such. He doesn't actually have many, so therefore, he can get along with most people. He, of course, won't stab anyone in the back, but besides that, there isn't much else. He won't cheat, but that doesn't mean he will be tied down too easily. He has a hard time trusting people, so it's very hard to have any type of relationship with him, much less an intimate one that isn't just physical. He's not a big drinker, but he's not one who will turn down a drink all the time. He'll have one on occasion, but he doesn't get drunk too often or too easily. He prefers to either cook a proper meal or go to a 'fancy' restaurant and order a proper meal. Of course, he mostly eats healthy foods, but he isn't strictly health food. He'll let it go quite a bit.
Appearance: Caliban is rather tall, standing at 6'3" and weighing in at about 175 lbs. He has black hair that falls to about his eyebrows, and his eyes are a blue-green shade. He is in excellent shape. He is cut, and he is rather muscular, though not digustingly so. His muscles are very evident if he takes his shirt off, even having a six-pack, and when he wears short-sleeved shirts it shows off his excellent tan and arm muscles. He doesn't go around bragging or showing off or anything, and if it seems like he's flexing, it's not on purpose. It's probably because he's either clenching his fists because he's angry, popping his wrists or knuckles, or just because he's gripping something. There are many reasons, none of which are done to intimidate or show off.
He usually wears dark jeans and a t-shirt of various colors, and occasionally he'll throw on a ballcap if his hair gets too long. He will dress up in a suit on occasion, but it's more casual, while looking very good on him. (See above picture.) He wears either tennis shoes or dressy shoes, depending on the outfit. He doesn't much care for ties, but if he must, he will wear them. During school, he'll be dressed properly, but afterwards, the tie will either be loosened or off by now, and the shirt will be unbuttoned slightly and the jacket will be open. He's very laid back, even in his clothing choices, so he isn't too fond of dressing up all the time.
Other: Cal is an Animagus. His form is a solid black wolf with amber eyes. The wolf is slightly larger than most wolves in the area, but not too much so that it is that much more obvious.
Role-Playing Sample: I play Aimee Reynolds.
