With green eyes and wild brown hair that seems to refuse to remain tame, Cooper Evans has the kind of face that most would call attractive. He's basically handsome, but has a somewhat boyish aura to him. However, his gaze tends to be deeper than most expect at first glance, and it's not hard to tell that this is not a person who's had an easy life, despite his wealth.

Cooper is tall, with arms that are just the right length. He's well built, strong looking. If one were to remove his shirt, they'd find a torso with plenty of scars -both from his job as an Auror, and from his seldom recalled adventures as a werewolf every full moon.

Cooper Evans believes he has been cursed.

Ever since the age of thirteen, when he and his twin Gaspar decided to go exploring in the woods behind their mansion, it seems as if everything has gone wrong. Gaspar died that day, attacked by a werewolf -a werewolf that also bit Coop and turned him into the creature he is.

But let's forget the past and who he was. Cooper had managed to begin to trust in himself, had managed to believe he wasn't simply a creature of evil -that no matter what he might turn into every full moon, he could still be good. He had began to allow people to grow close to him, and even let himself grow close right back. He was married, even, formed a family and had children -he had began to be happy.

But happyness is a fickle thing: Bella, his wife, was killed by the very wolf that turned Coop.

The Auror is now possessed by the the idea of revenge like he never had been before. Angry at the world, and retreating back into himself, he's become somewhat violent and hates his own kind -werewolves. He's determined to find a cure to his condition -and to kill all those werewolves who rather stay as they are. Murder is a new idea for Cooper, a man who'd always fought against the primal instincts that he regretted must come out every full moon. But now he's obsessed with it, dreams of blood and massacres and the fulfillment of his ambition.

However, against the very nature of the violence that has overtaken him, Cooper is a very loyal man. Once you've gained his warmth, he's loyal to the core, nice and kind. He'll never let you down.

Cooper Evans was born almost 31 years ago, to Chirstian Evans and Victoria Strathmore. He was one of two, twin to Gaspar Evans. The Evans family was a quite well-to be family, and Cooper and Gaspar had an easy life to begin with. Their every desire at their feet, the one and only issue with their otherwise idyllic life was the fact that their parents seldom saw them, and that they were, for all intents and purposes, raised by house-elves. Chirstian was part of the Wizengamot, and Victoria was an Unspeakable which meant that both were always extremely busy, working their jobs or putting up a mask of perfection for the rest of society. Otherwise, though, the childhood of Cooper and Gaspar Evans was pure perfection.

It was only when the twins were 13 that tragedy struck. One winter afternoon, with snow covering the grounds and the a nasty bite of cold in the air, the two decided to go exploring in the woods that surrounded Evans Manner. They were young, excited, perhaps simply seeking attention. At first, it all seemed like a fun adventure –until they were lost, and unable to find their way back. The light grey sky began to turn towards pitch black, and flickers of fear began to appear in the young boy’s hearts. As luck would have it for the two, the clouds decided to part and reveal a round, full moon. At the sight, Cooper felt instantly excited, as it allowed them some light –excited, that is, until he heard a growl behind him. What followed Coop has never been able to remember point by point, but he knows the outcome: Gaspar was killed by a werewolf lurking in the woods, and Cooper was a bit. Cursed. Turned.

Life became nasty and difficult. Cooper was without his twin, his other half. It was as if something were missing. And, if that wasn’t hard enough, he was also forced to turn into a monster every full moon. In a twist of ugly fate that has often made the man wonder why the Gods hate him so much, he is allergic to wolfsbane, which means that there is no way to calm his transformations. Each month he was forced to become a violent creature, thirsty for blood and destruction. School became hard to manage, and Cooper began to withdraw. As the years went by, Cooper became responsible for three deaths during the full moon, and so little by little his soul was destroyed. He knew it was all against his own decision, but he hated what he became. Hated that he was now a murderer. Cooper built walls around his persona, and let nobody in: caring would only mean pain. If he didn’t care for anyone, everything would be so much easier. It was lucky for Cooper that Albus Dumbledore was the Headmaster during his time at Hogwarts, for the man was understanding of his situation and he was allowed out of the school every month to go through his transformations in specially designed Ministry-run safe rooms.

Fast-forward a few years, and Cooper finished Hogwarts at the age of 17. He knew, as he had known for over a year now that he was determined to become an Auror. In his mind, it would work as some type of retribution for the horrible acts he might commit if he ever escaped from the Ministry Safe Room or his own bunker during the full moon.  The world he graduated into was not a kind one to his type, which only made him grateful that he had kept his condition a secret. Still, the Ministry was a somber place during his first year of training, until Voldemort was finally killed. Immediately out of Hogwarts, Cooper cut loose from his family as best he could –though Chirstian and Victoria still insist on seeing him every so often-, and began his training. Before long, he had achieved his goal and became a part of the Magical Law Enforcement.

At the age of 24, Cooper met Bella Catapoult, soon after the Azkaban Prison Break and still sporting scars from the battle that had been fought at the wizarding prison. The first meeting was at a library, where the new Auror was researching and wanted nothing but peace. Bella had seen him as a lonely wolf, and decided to sit with him. Coop instantly disliked her for trying to break through her barriers –but little would he know that she managed to do just that, and by the time New Years came he was at her house, storming inside and kissing her for the very first time, his barriers beginning to come down. He allowed himself to care, to fall in love; he allowed Bella to explain that his condition was not his fault and that she would always be there to help him through it. Three years later, they were married, and by the end of the year, Bella was pregnant.

Sadly, however, everything began to spiral downwards. Cooper was put on the case of Aidan Renwick: a ruthless businessman, owner and founder of Renwick Enterprises, the Ministry of Magic was aware that Aidan was up to no good and had some type of malicious plans. Cooper was to discover the truth, and put the man in Azkaban. Aidan, however, had agents within the Ministry, and was all too aware of what Coop was up to. Somehow, the man knew about the Auror’s secret and of the small number of people Coop has killed –and exploited it against him. A dangerous game began, a game where Cooper’s entire life was on the balance. His every instinct and sense of morality told him to use every piece of evidence he had against Aidan, but if he did his secret would be revealed to the world.

In the midst of the drama, Bella gave birth to two beautiful twins whom they named Katherine and Gaspar. Their children were two years old when tragedy stroke again: Cooper had handed in everything he had about Aidan at the Ministry, deciding he did not care if his secret was made public: he had to do what was right. Renwick appeared at the Evans household that very evening, furious and ready to kill. A fight latched out, and by the end of it, Cooper was magically pinned to a wall, while Aidan Renwick cut Bella open with a spell. While he did so, the business man revealed his ultimate secret: “First I killed your brother, then I turned you and now I take the one person you’ve ever loved –you must hate me.” In shock at the revelation that Aidan was the werewolf who’d forever ruined his life, Cooper fell to a heap on the floor as the business man disappeared into the night. The next morning, in the midst of Bella’s funeral, Cooper discovered that every shred of evidence he’d presented against Aidan Renwick was gone. The man would not be convicted.

Now just past those events, Cooper is only managing to hold back his guilt over Bella’s death by living on anger and a thirst for revenge: he is determined not only to murder Aidan Renwick, but also find a cure for his condition. A cure he can use not only for himself, but for any other specimens such as himself who do not wish to be what they are. And then, only then, he’ll kill every remaining werewolf and rid the world of the pest that his species is.

Describe your job duties and how you go about them:
As an Auror, Cooper’s job is basically to catch dark wizards. Training was not easy, and so he learnt many different tasks important to his job. He's been on the force for ten years, and is currently the Primary Auror on the Aidan Renwick case. Cooper goes about his job with dedication, putting his entire life into every case he works –out of guilt, in all honestly, though most simply believe he is dedicated to what he does. Cooper’s entire life is based on pursuit of justice, and making sure that the world doesn’t become the dark place he fears it might.

Elaborate on your expertise in your field:

Cooper has been on the task force for the past ten years. He has been the Primary on numerous cases, and only recently, with the Renwick case, has he found it almost impossible to close the file. He’s good at his job, enjoys working out on the field –especially now, with his wife gone, being at home is too painful, and he’s beginning to commit the same mistake his parents did: he’s leaving his children at the hands of their one single House Elf; he doesn’t realize what it is he’s doing, but he is. His life is now dedicated to the job, especially to closing the Renwick case. Cooper is good at gaining the upper hand in difficult situations, and has handled a number of hostage situations before. He’s also good with spells. As a matter of fact, other than his rage, it’d be hard to find any fault in the way he does the job.

(This is a post from Cooper’s son POV on a site where the twins had grown older).

Gaspar Evans sighed, stifling a yawn as he stood in the large entry hall. He ran a hand through his brown hair, then pressed a small fist to his lips, another yawn forgotten. His eyes were tired, and his lethargic muscles mimicked the feeling. It’d been too long –close to three days- since he’d slept. But it was understandable, when his whole life hung on the balance of his own decisions. He was no longer a child –he was legally of age, and that meant everything was his choice. Gaspy wasn’t at all sure he wanted such responsibilities. He wished he could remain a child forever. Even if that meant going through the hardships once again.

He’d been young when he’d been sent to Beauxbatons, forced to change schools because of his low grades. He’d left a life behind, but in all honesty he’d not been old enough to truly feel the consequences of abandoning them all. Kat, Mom, Dad, Kate, T… he’d missed them all, dearly, but he’d been too little to actually pity their lacking from his life. Kat he had missed the most, there was little doubt. It had been strange to be without his twin, his life companion. And T, his best mate. Everyone, if he were honest. But not with a heavy burden. He had barely felt melancholy.

It had been soon after he’d begun at his new school that news of his missing father had reached him. At first, Gaspy had kicked and yelled at nights, dreaming of death and darkness, and his days had been invaded by the heavy task of creating trouble –with the only hope of being expelled, sent back home. He’d wished for nothing more –innocently thinking that, if he went back, his father would magically reappear. He’d been a boy, full of a childish dreams of a world that was full of good.

It hadn’t taken him long to realize how wrong he was.

Another yawn stifled, Gaspy shuffled his feet and stared at the tall mass of the stairs before him. It was his last day at school –he’d be leaving the castle that had brought him comfort in times of trouble as soon as the sun graced his eyes with it’s rays the following morning. He wouldn’t be coming back –this he knew. But what he didn’t know, what he wasn’t sure of, was where he would be going. Decisions. Responsibility. It all sodding sucked. Gaspy kicked at the pillar of stone that marked the beginning of the stairs, pain shooting up his big toe and making him blush with the force of keeping back a whelp, teeth biting down hard onto his bottom lip.

“Surely the stairs are not to blame for whatever’s bothering you,” A delicate hand came to rest on Gaspar’s shoulders, as the seventeen year old turned his head just slightly –and needlessly. He would recognize the soft tone of her voice, wherever he went, no matter how many years since he’d heard it, even if it had been decades since he’d seen her, he knew he’d always recognize her voice. Bethan Tyrell had been there for him, when he’d needed her the most. She hadd become his confident, his one true friend, the one person who knew it all.

They had met at the beginning of fourth year, as news of Cooper Evans’ dissapearance had reached Gaspy, and they had bonded instantly. It had been a warm day, and Gaspy had taken to the solitude of the library, when some lass had sat next to him, stretched out a hand, introduced herself, and proceeded to ask why in the world he was sitting alone on such a beautiful day. Her voice had been slightly admonishing. He hadn’t liked her much on that first occasion, but there had been something about her that reminded him of both Kat and Kate –and so, they had spoken again, and soon they had been as tight as stick and glue.

On nights when sleep would not grace Gaspy, she’d groggily meet him in the tallest tower when he asked for her. At first, she’d pretend to be pissed he’d woken her from slumber –but the caring in her eyes informed him it was all a play. She’d hug him to her, and let him cry until he no longer felt lonely, until he no longer missed his father. She’d explain that a man who had pulled so many disappearing acts simply wasn’t important enough. She’d helped him grow. And he would forever be thankful for it.

Gaspy had kissed her once, one of the many nights up on the tower. Summer had been approaching, and a lady bug had been bothering them all evening. The stars had been brighter than most nights, and the air had been heavy with humidity –a tell tale sign of the rain that had beaten the ground to misery the following day. They had sat there, up on the tower, laughing about nothing and everything, allowing themselves not to be serious. And then, the lady bug had came to rest on Bethan’s lips. Gaspy had stared at it for an instant, before rising a single, trembling digit to push it away. The skin of his finger had rested against her lips for an instant, as the golden of her eyes had met the green of his own.  Then, Gaspy had lent just slightly forward, and pressed his lips chastely against her’s. It had been his first kiss, at the end of his fifth year, and for all it’s inexperience he knew he would always cherish it as the best. They had never kissed again, nor had they spoken of the moment. Gaspar prefered to think of it as nothing but a side-effect of the heat.

“Better it than any human being,” Gaspy replied harshly, before sighing and shaking his head. He turned his body towards her, leaning in an awkward angle so as to allow her hand to remain on his shoulder. “Sorry, it’s just… decisions and responsibilities.” He rolled his eyes, knowing he sounded like a broken record. “Same old, same old,” He gave her a tentative smirk.

“And here I thought I was talking with a grown up,” Beth rolled her golden eyes as she lift the hand from her shoulder to run it through her auburn locks of hair. She sighed, full lips coming together at the end as she shook her mane of hair down her shoulders. “Just come to France with me, Gaspy, at least for a bit. Clear your mind… and then you can see about returning home.” Bethan was moving to France to live on her own, and she had first made the offer for him to come with her a few weeks ago, completely screwing with Gaspy’s decisión to return to London. He wasn’t sure he was ready for that, and here was a possibility to postpone it further.

The seventeen year old glanced down at the mark left by the stairs on his shoe, then back into her deep gaze, before sighing and giving a small nod. “Okay –I will.” He said. And as easily as that, he’d made his first decisión as an adult. As easily as that, he’d taken life into his own hands. As easily as that, he’d taken the reigns. It was now that he’d begin to live with the consequences of his life, and have to know they were fully his own.As easily as that, he’d become an adult.

Cooper is a grief struck character, consumed by guilt and focused instead on anger, for anger is an easier emotion to deal with. His entire life has been turned on its heels many times over, and he knows he has, unwittingly, been the cause of pain for so many families. He dreams of blood every night, the blood of those few he has killed during the full moon, and therefore he tries to live his life dedicated to making sure everything else is right with the world, even if he can’t be.
