Professor Paul Wickham

Paul is currently a Professor of Healing Arts at Hogwarts
== Biography ==
=== Early Life ===
Born November 11th, 1972, named after his father Wesley Paul Wickham, Sr., Paul was the third eldest son of seven in a pureblood family. Jack, Charlie, Zack, Freddie, Harper, and Killian were the other six of the Wickham brothers.
=== Academic Life ===
Enrolled in Hogwarts in 1983 and sorted into Hufflepuff. During the Spring of his third year was when he met Joan Watson after the young Gryffindor had wandered into a restricted ward. 
It was during his time at school that his eldest brother Jack, who was an Auror for the Ministry of Magic, was killed in the line of duty. 
=== Post-Schooling ===
Paul at-first continued his studies with a focus in the healing arts despite pressure from his father to be an Auror. He later pursued this with the rise in Voldemort's Army, convincing his life-long friend, Joan to join him. 
It was during this time that he met Angela, whom he began a relationship with and eventually became engaged to.
=== Auror Career ===
Paul and Joan worked well together as a pair. They had an uncanny knack of knowing where the other was at all time and it had been commented that their fighting style was immensely fluid. They had been part of the Anti-Deatheater task force, something that later brought them to the Battle of Hogwarts in 1998. That battle would be their last together as Paul was gravely injured and lost his leg. The ministry later forcibly retired him from the department and he left the magical world.
=== Post-Ministry Life ===
In the wake of his injury, Paul went into a deep depression which ultimately impacted his relationship with Angela and they broke up. Following this, he spent quite some time in the muggle world.

Upon his return, he reunited with friend and fellow-professor, Joan Watson. With friendship rekindled, long-time feelings came back to the surface and deepened. They later married in a small private ceremony during Holiday break December 2019.
