cormac was born in a rural part of northern ireland and lived with his widowed mother and two siblings.

the mcconnell family were part of a small supremacist werewolf colony, as established by his father, where each boy was required to 'inherit' lycanthropy once they were of an appropriate age to do so.

at age 4 he was expected to be bitten by his father, though due to his absence, his bite was to be postponed until the return of his uncle.

by the time the conversation came up again, cormac had become the recipient of a hogwarts letter. due to his academic aptitude his mother allowed him to travel in order to attend, a controversial decision amongst the other families in his village who believed he should have been the one to assume his father's legacy.

the patriarch of the family, cathal mcconnell, allegedly fought alongside fenrir greyback in the second wizarding war in a small allied battalion of werewolves.

cathal self-identified as a death eater and attested to a "high-standing" within their ranks, despite most accounts disputing this due to a range of factors:

+ existing prejudices amongst voldemort's followers that did not allow werewolves to afflict themselves with a dark mark.

+   there was no official record of cathal ever being associated with fenrir in any official capacity, even in leaked documents from the ministry of magic.

cathal mcconnell was killed in 2002 under mysterious circumstances. many people within his close circles believed this to be a ministry conspiracy, while others had attributed it to an argument gone wrong. his family believed that cathal had simply went into hiding - though this too remains unconfirmed.

with an impending bite on the horizon, cormac found himself uneasy during his studies. despite his apparent brilliance he found it difficult to apply himself within his classes.

tba pending connections

cormac found work based off of a personal recommendation from his dada professor, who had been impressed with his apparent knowledge of lycanthropy due to a "vested interest" in the subject.

finding work in the department for the regulation and control of magical creatures, which had once housed a werewolf support unit that was dismantled far before his own time, he dedicated his hours to the being division as an official.

as a liaison between the wizarding community and magical beings (defined as any creature that has sufficient intelligence to understand the laws of the magical community), cormac found himself entangled in bureaucratic webs that seemed resistant to change.

in the quiet confines of his office, cormac harbored a clandestine desire—to reinstate werewolf support services within the ministry. the notion of extending aid to those afflicted with lycanthropy resonated deeply within him. however, fear and caution held him back, as the fragile nature of such a proposal hung heavily in the air.

wary of the potential backlash, cormac grappled with the internal conflict of ambition versus pragmatism. the desire to spark change warred with the necessity to safeguard his family, pushing him into a reluctant stance of observation from the shadows.
