in-depth history
Rafe's parents are Raoul and Rachel Lycoan. His father had a bad reputation and was a prominent leader of one of the largest werewolf clans of Romania, if not all of Europe. He typically rebelled against his true nature and even took a common witch for a bride. They were forbidden to ever have a child, for it was highly frowned upon their people for it wouldn't be a "pureblood" werewolf. Their kind were free to bite children and adopt them as their own, but never conceive a child if they were not both werewolves.

As time went on Raoul became more and more thirsty for power, biting whoever he wished to build an army to take over all the werewolf clans in Romania (and now moving into Vampire territory). This was tearing Rachel apart, for she dearly loved her husband, but didn't agree with his actions.

However, sometime during Raoul's thirst for power, Rachel had conceived a child and was terrified of telling Raoul. She knew this child would be killed the moment it was born, if not before. Rachel tried to conceal this secret as long as possible, but a child's heartbeat can be heard with the werewolf's heightened senses, so her secret was soon revealed. Raoul was furious and many of his inner circle demanded she should be killed. But, Raoul still dearly loved his wife and tricked his inner circle that he killed her and his child, while secretly helping her to escape, making Rachel promise never to return or acknowledge Raoul as her husband. Rachel left heartbroken and eventually did escape, but before she left Romania for good, she went into labor.

Rachel gave birth to a beautiful baby boy and named him Rafe after Raoul's grandfather. It was a difficult labor and she almost gave up her will to survive until she saw her beautiful son who had Raoul's sparkling green eyes. She thought she could never love again until she saw this child, but at the same time her son, reminded her of everything she had to leave behind.

Rafe had a difficult childhood. Every month he would go through his spells of being furious and torn and sometimes violent. Though he never would completely change into a werewolf, he did have some werewolf-like tendencies, like only eating raw meat, being moodier once a month, which included sharp pains, overreacting, and his eyes would change beaded black, but other than that he looked quite normal (well, minus the facial hair, but he says its a growth hormone spell gone wrong).

His mother loves him unconditionally though she hardly ever shows it. She raised him herself, teaching him spells and about different cultures all over Europe. For eleven years, they traveled and never settled down, until Rachel decided it was time for him to attend a wizarding school. Though she favored Durmstrang, she decided that it would be best for him to attend Hogwarts and they finally settled in England. Two summer's ago he went to find his father with his friend Kat. Rafe succeeded and faced the possibility of execution, but his father had him spared. Raoul insisted for him to be trained like his army of werewolves, where he learned new spells and became more physically fit, even though his father won't transform him into a werewolf himself. Rafe continues to secretly keep in contact with his father without his mother's knowledge.

At Hogwarts, Rafe made many new friends and became a passionate Quidditch fanatic. He would do anything for his friends. During his third term, Rafe fell in love with Marilyn Force and truly believes she is the love of his life, even at a young age. He loves her unconditionally and sometimes finds himself overly protective of her.

His mother eventually remarried, to lawyer and muggleborn Dustin Parker and gave birth to a baby girl, Aurelia Parker. He was so used to being an only child and didn't take well to the idea of having a little sister. But, as time went on he found he loved her even though she was only his half sister and was constantly called a "normal" child, given that she has no lycan blood in her veins. But, life for him in England was hard and he liked being with his fellow lycan brothers. One evening, while his mother was tidying up the house, she discovered letters written between Rafe and his father. She was ashamed and kicked him out of the house and asked him never to return. This really hurt Rafe because as much as he and his mum never agreed on things over time, he never thought she would banish him. Rafe had nowhere else to go, but to his father. There he continued his training and was enrolled at Durmstrang, which would have been his 4th term at Hogwarts. Rafe didn't care for the school, it was too gloomy, lacked focus and the classes were centered around the Dark Arts. But, adjusting to a school would be the least of Rafe's problems.

That summer he discovered that he wasn't the only descendent of his father's. One of Raoul's adventures out in the muggle world led to concieving another child. And that child, Derian Grimme Lycaon showed up on their doorstep in Romania. Rafe is unsure how he feels about his 11-year-old brother. He never thought of his father ever loving or being with another woman other than his mom. And though Rafe never thought himself as being prejudice and at the same time has pride in his pureblood heritege, he's even more shocked that his brother's mum is a muggle. Rafe found out that his new brother was living in England and was accepted at Hogwarts. At the word "Hogwarts" Rafe had an overwhelming urge to go and secretly begged his father to allow him to return. His father permitted him to go with a little stipend to live on his own in England. Rafe was also curious about his new found brother. He didn't really like the little bloke, but he knew Derian would probably go through some of the same changes he had to deal with being half-werewolf, but unlike Rafe he would have someone to talk to and know what he was going through.
personality/extra
Rafe is usually very outgoing and charming. He's a bit old-fashioned thanks to his mom and definitely believes in the old ways of chivalry. He does have a temper at time, but usually only when provoked (or when the moon is full). He is very independent and usually does things himself, but when the occasion calls he will ask for the help from his friends. He is always up for an adventure and willing to try new things or even event new ways of entertainment. Rafe likes to get in a bit of mischief from time to time, but tries not to ever get caught.

Name: Kinzey
Birthday: February 27, 1989
Profession: Student at a University; Mass Communications Major
Favorite HP character(s): Lupin and Tonks!

About Me: I'm currently a college student for just one more semester! I'm hoping to do layout design for a newspaper or magazine, or sail around with Greenpeace, or be a movie/food critic or be a Bridal Consultant! The possibilities are endless for me. I just like to have fun and travel and my ultimate goal is to one day work and live in New Zealand. I'm an only child and currently reside in Texas! Howdy Y'all! I also have a puppy named Freddie and he's just the cutest little mutt (part cocker spaniel/part golden retriever) you'll ever meet! And I love to write, explore and ultimately just have fun!

Snitchseeker: I've been on SS for almost 6 years now! Though I've only been RPing for about two! I've had Rafe since he was a firstie, but had to take a break last term due to a personal crisis. But, I'm back and can't wait to meet new people!
