Character Approval/Christopher Bell

"Love can sometimes be magic. But sometimes magic is just an illusion." WIP

1) **Describe your character's backstory. Who are their parents? Did they grow up with Nobility, or were they of lower class? The character's backstory must be at least 2 paragraphs long.**

**WARNING: STORYLINE CHARACTER**

Christopher was born into a practically royal family. The Bells had a long line of famous and powerful elves. Nobles, councillors, and celebrities. The Bells were obsessed with maintaining their pure bloodline that consisted of no Talentless or Bad Matches in the family. They had very strict rules on who you could marry, and who you could not.

Some family members tried to rebel against said rules, but soon learned the punishments made it not so worth it. Christopher never had a problem with the rules, and believed it was truly how the world should be: important people marrying important people, and less important people marrying others of their same social status.

Christopher was born an only child to Corvus and Maleficent Bell, two very powerful Nobles, and he had a very spoiled upbringing. Although money did not matter so much in the Lost Cities, the Bells certainly seemed to live otherwise, owning many giant estates and yachts and several other expensive luxuries that most elves are not so fortunate to obtain. Christopher never really did learn to feel bad for the families who didn't have what he did, and thus he always thought of his family as superior to everyone else's.

His parents shaped him into a businessman, despite the intentions he may have had before it, his goals were soon set after some lectures from his parents. Perhaps they didn't teach him the proper ethics, but they certainly taught him to take advantage of others' losses and gain what he could of them.

Christopher attended Foxfire, and was simply disgusted. All of the Talentless and Bad Match children running around loose. It was chaotic and not orderly, and certainly not strict enough. It also, in his mind,d didn't teach proper curriculum, and wasn't advanced enough in their studies. Christopher did, however, finish his studies there with flying colors, nearly getting completely perfect grades.

When Christopher graduated, he began his career as a businessman. He bought up a few businesses, just to get going at first, and benefited from their revenue. But he soon was plotting ways to make his own business. He tried several different things, but finally settled on a school.

There only existed a few schools in the Lost Cities, and the ones that did exist were horrendous, in his mind, and he believed that people needed the right education, and that started with a better school. He pitched to some mentors at Foxfire to vote for him on his campaign to be the new Magnate of Foxfire, but he was declined. After several attempts, he just settled on creating a whole new academy.

The process in which you must go through to open up an academy is a very rigorous process, and takes years, especially when you're working with just one person. Christopher married his wife, Artemis, during the process. It was mostly an arranged marriage, but they were in love no doubt, although Christopher never really showed it, which led to some disagreements in the future.

They had two children, Rafael and Tobias, while the academy was still being planned. Christopher loved his children, but only really because they could carry on his legacy, which made him quite happy.

After years of planning and plotting, the academy, Twistburrow, was opened, with stricter and more curriculum, and a very strict application process.

Years later, they had a few more children, which Christopher thought pretty disgraceful to the family name, but finally agreed to not set them up for adoption.

With everything considered, it seemed like life was going pretty well. But how much of a turn it was about to take, he would never be prepared for.
