Name: Tavis Erik Burke
Age: 19
Alma Mater: Hogwarts
Birthdate: October 15, 1979
Birthplace: London, England
Employer: Wolf and Serpent Inn
Occupation: Owner
Affiliations: Pureblood Club, Hydra
Blood Status: Pureblood
Height: 6'1"
Build: Muscular
Skin: Pale complexion
Hair: Long, wavy, brown
Other notes on appearance: Green eyes. He is rather intimidating to look at. This is not
helped by the fact that he always wears a scowl, unless his twisted sense of humor is aroused.
Biography: Tavis is the grandson of Caractacus Burke of Borgin and Burke's and both is mother and father come from long lines of respectable pureblood families, which Tavis is very proud of. Their blood mania prejudices have been passed on to their son. He was briefly suspended from Hogwarts in his sixth year because of his help in establishing a Pureblood Club with a few other students (Columba Briggs, Veronica Tomms, Mehren Blair, Fiona Shawn and Tom Campbell) who have since graduated. Left alone at Hogwarts, he needed to find himself some new cronies...I mean accomplises...I mean friends.
At 16, he was suspended and broke up with Fiona. He has also dated Cygnus Fawcett and broke up with her when he found out she was a blood traitor.
His life goal is to get back at Columba Briggs who deceived Tom's twin (David) to think she was a pureblood when she was actually a muggle-born. He acheived his revenge by killing her (supposedly, there's still no real proof per se).
Tavis has a few enchantments upon him that hinder his actions as a purist leader. The first, and most important, is one that doesn't allow him to kill anyone unless seriously threatened or provoked. His grandfather put this spell on him just before he died so Tavis couldn't track down his murderer (Lucius Malfoy) and take revenge.
The second was placed on him as an infant. His grandfather gave him a cursed toy that allowed him to tell a person's blood status automatically. He doesn't put much store by this anymore since finding out that it can be tricked if he loves the person. That being said, it's obvious he's been in love with filth before.
Tavis's past relationships have been shaky. He's dated extensively within PC (almost every female member can bear witness to this) and continues to do so though he knows he should stop. Because of this, he's been burned by almost all of them. Most of them left him for other girls (Fiona, Veronica, Mehren, etc.) and then he found out Cygnus was supposedly a "lesbian"! That didn't help. Because of this past, he's extremely homophobic! Despite his dating streak, he is not looking for love. He's now viewing dating a much more Mehren-esque light. He wants a bunch of meaningless relationships, one after the other--the way PC should be.
Tavis is bisexual! This was discovered when he murdered his long-time crush (Tom Campbell former PC member turned blood traitor) and confessed his love for him in those final moments. Well, he had to get rid of the man who threatened him so deeply. So, now only Brae, Delilah, and Mehren know about this. Dun dun dun! This has triggered a great change in the Tavis we used to know. How? Well, ever since then (and a meeting with Claire Rider), his confidence has gone up, way up, and he's challenging things. Will this be amazing or catastrophic? Who knows?
He's also married Lissette. We'll see how that goes.
He has been an animagus for 6 years now (though he often lies about the length of time), but he is still unregistered. He takes the form of a bat when he transforms.
He's trying to deal with a lot of stuff that's been uprooting the life he once knew. For instance, the death of Lord Voldemort hit him hard. While trying to cope with it and put his life together after coming out of hiding (with the aid of the mysterious Uncle Gavin--for more info, read my book in F&B). He found out that Uncle Gavin was behind the PC and the identity of Gavin was also discovered in a visit to Burke Manor (Lucius Malfoy). Now, he's thoroughly troubled and doesn't even want to continue PC at all. He's been forced back, though, thanks to Mehren.

Tavis has graduated from Hogwarts, not having accomplished anything of note in his final year with PC. He is now nineteen and working on a project of great importance with Brae that will greatly affect the future of PC. It is openning an inn in Hogsmeade that will be a meeting place and a safe-home for purists called The Wolf and Serpent.
He is working on putting the pieces back together after taking an extremely lengthy break from PC to put his own life together after graduation. Married life is still a bit new to him, even after almost three years, and he struggles with his feelings about it (as well as his feelings for other girls). However, he has moved out of Burke Manor to find a place with his wife, Lissette, and hasn't spoken to his parents since. He hasn't been able to forgive them about the whole Uncle Gavin situation.
Currently, he's attempting to track down all the former PC members and find a way to keep it going, knowing that their purpose is still essential to the wizarding world.
There's still a LOT of interesting stuff about him, guys. There are some hints in my CoS "The Wall is My Friend". So, keep asking and he might just tell you. As much as I want to put it all right here because it's killing me that no one's asking the right questions, I won't because that kills the surprise.
Special Abilities: His animagus for is a bat. He is also under several curses: one limits his ability to kill unless horribly provoked or threatened, the other allows him to tell the true blood status of anyone unless he has the potential to love them or already does love them.
