Childhood | 1860-1872 | Château de Maksime in Paris, France
1860: Timoleon is born. A second son, a spare to the heir. Life moves on quickly as a nanny, and then a governess whisk him away to care for him. He rarely sees his parents. Father is strict, mother is disinterested in raising them. His childhood is spent trying to be in the spotlight. Timoleon likes to be noticed as a boy: to anyone he interacts with, he wants to remain in memory for something special. He likes to be the leader of the pack in an effort to impress his peers that he’s going places. He wants to build a
dynasty. (A dynasty means having his family become of the sacred twenty eight, even if that don't exist yet.)
1870: A late bloomer, Leo’s first burst of magic comes at ten years old. In a jealous fit that his brother received his Beauxbatons Academy of Magic letter before him, Leo makes everything written on the letter invisible. There’s a collective sigh he’s not a squib.
School Years| 1872-1879 | Beauxbatons Academy of Magic
1872: He finally follows his brother to attend Beauxbatons after having to wait an entire year to turn twelve. His first few years are similar to many others: making friends, studying magic and trying to be the best that he can be. Leo joins clubs because he likes to be a leader. He studies hard because he likes the attention, and wants people to come to him for help. He likes it when professors know they can call on him. He
likes to be a know-it-all. (And if he doesn’t know the answer, he’ll talk in circles until others believe he does.)
1877: Puberty hits, and Leo spends a lot of time flirting with girls. He learns spells just to impress them. He becomes a prefect, and abuses the power, handing out detention and convincing girls to sleep with him in abandoned towers because who would catch them out after hours? He certainly wasn’t going to turn himself in.
1879: Graduation. Finally. He leaves with little fanfare. Haskell dies in some accident Leo doesn't ever care to ask about on the way to congratulate him. How terrible. He doesn’t shed a tear and basks in being the eldest son now. He couldn’t ask for a better graduation gift.
Early Adult Years| 1879-1891| Wixeldorf London Home; Rented London Flat
1880: He tours the continent and makes it a goal to find someone to bed in every country he visits - he succeeds, and has many new names under his belt when he finally returns home. A few months later a German girl swears she’s with child. His family pays for the problem to go away because there will not be a bastard child running around. He’s warned to get his life together and stop being an
embarrassment. He wasn’t very good at mourning.
1881: Suffocating under his parents thumb, Leo moves to join his uncle and family in England. He lives with them for about a year, until he’s able to get a job as an intern with the Department of Law Enforcement. Then he rents a flat in London.
1884: Finally, a promotion to a clerk. He doesn’t like the job, but he can move up at least. He focuses his attention on moving up the career ladder.
1888: He moves from clerk to junior lawyer, to lawyer. Leo isn’t sure how he feels about the job, but he puts his all into it because he absolutely needs to be known as the best lawyer all around. He comes in early, stays late and people begin to wonder if he actually has a home. His dedication works.
Late 1891: he’s promoted to assistant head. Now, he just needs Murdock Greyback to get out of his way so he can run the entire department.
Oct 1892:: He meets Estelle Malfoy and is almost obsessed with her. She is infuriating.
November 1892 Thinking Murdock is the cause beyond the string of weird murders, Leo ventures to the Greyback Reach to find evidence. Unfortunately he does this during a full moon, and Murdock bites him, turning him into a werewolf.
April 1893: Well, he and Estelle start kind of a relationship, though not official. They kiss.
August 1893 Leo decided to run for Minister... and he loses.
Nov 1894: Leo takes Estelle's virginity and they begin a sexual relationship, but still not courting. It's fine. It's fun.
Feb 1895: Oh no. Estelle is pregnant. Leo convinces her to get an abortion. He doesn't want to marry her nor have a bastard child.
July/Aug 1895: One player fucks up his plot Morweena Skeeter is bitch and makes it that werewolves are pushed out of the ministry by outing herself. Leo wants to murder her. (Maybe he will.) Anyhow, Leo quits before he can be outed and opens a law firm with Murdock.
