I'm Like a Bad Penny!
Less than twenty-four hours after the loss of Morag and Edwin I bring you the first of my new characters (though I'm still not sure who will follow or when it will be).
This is Matt O'Geary. He's in his early twenties and a complete and total Yankee. Though he was born in Korea he was adopted by an American family when he was three. He was raised as a Muggle in an extremely conservative and very religious setting a lot of which didn't take very well with Matt. Not the religion so much as the not very Christian nature of the teachings of the church.
Not that it really mattered much, he was effectively cut off by his father when they learned he was a wizard and though is mother defied her husband by getting assistance from her father to send Matt to school the relationships between Matt and his family are rather strained.
He's been working as a freelance reporter since graduating from Salem in 1998 and over the last few years he's started tracing his family as best as he could given the limitations in resources involved. He's finally traced everything back to the Sungs and Sung trading.
