History/Description: In his youth Charles supposed he had a relatively normal childhood, but he’s unsure what to call “normal” as he was born into one of Louisiana’s more prominent Voodoo families. For as long as anyone could remember, everyone from politicians to lovesick women had been seeking the advice and abilities of the Bordeaux women. As he grew, so did his abilities until he was able to understand and read the cards better than his own mother as well as any other spell that was necessary of him. However, being in a matriarchal family, his sisters and female cousins were ranked above him though he was far more skilled than most of them could ever hope to be.

Charles quickly began to hate his relatives, as well as their customers, and sought to make his own name outside of New Orleans. He traveled the world searching to bring his skills to some use, even so much as attending Elysian Academy rather than the schools his parents had expected him to attend. He began forming rivalries very early and takes his studies seriously.

He returned home with the education he had hoped for, as well as being able to control even the most difficult of spells. Charles even dabbled in a bit of necromancy to strengthen his skills, but even as he returned home he was still of little value to the women in his family. Charles instantly declared himself disowned and applied at Arcadium School as there was a position that requested his abilities.

Personality: Though he appears kind and a Southern Gentleman on the outside, Charles is a complicated piece of work. His mental stability is sometimes brought into question and he doesn’t mind causing quite a bit of pain (though he doesn’t ever actually kill anybody due to what flimsy morals he has). He has a cold and distant personality and it takes quite a bit for him to even allow someone to get near him.

In his spare time, Charles listens to or plays classical violin and reads. Charles also has quite a bit of skill in sewing for making voodoo dolls, and will sometimes (though against the original person’s wishes) dress them in whatever he sees fit at the time—this includes frilly dresses, preppy clothes, or whatever else he can think up.
