Oscar "Butch" Bowers: Hogwarts AU
Oscar "Butch" Bowers was a Pureblood wizard that was born on the 9th of August 1933 and started attending Hogwarts on the 1st of September 1944, being sorted into Slytherin House.
He had a Red Oak wand with a Dragon Heartstring core.
His Patronus was non-corporeal.
His favorite subject was Defense Against the Dark Arts and his least favorite was Astronomy.
He was a Beater for the Slytherin Quidditch team from his fourth year onward.
He is described as being "crazy". He "rewards" his son by giving him his first beer upon learning Henry had killed Mike Hanlon's dog. In 1974, Butch's wife eventually left him after he nearly beat her to death. A few years later began dating Rena Davenport.
Butch carried on an unending feud with Will Hanlon, who's farm down the road was more successful than Bowers'. Bowers poisoned Hanlon's chickens and painted a Swastika on the side of their chicken coop. Butch was taken into custody by the suror Sullivan. Will didn't want to press charges but only wanted 200 Galleons in compensation for the dead chickens. Butch said "no jury in the UK would convict me." Auror Sullivan agreed but pointed out they would put him away for painting a Swastika on the door after he killed them. Butch realized he was right, and had his brother sell his prized broom to pay Will Hanlon. Butch's feud with Will stopped after Will pointed his wand to his throat and threatened to kill him.
Butch was a volunteer during the Third Wizarding War and fought in Tarawa. People said he was never right after he came back from the Pacific. Henry's friends try to avoid Butch because of his erratic behavior. He had once taken a length of stovewood to Victor Criss when he dropped a basket of tomatoes he was lugging out to the roadside stand. According to Henry's friends, the beating was bad enough but made worse because Butch, screaming hysterically, was enduring an episode of post-traumatic stress that made him think he was killing dark wizards working from Madara.
Butch would sit on the back porch with a Japanese sword across his lap that he claimed to have taken off the body of a dying Japanese wizard on the island of Tarawa. He had actually traded six bottles of Budweiser and three "joysticks" for it in Honolulu.
Butch was killed by his son, who stabbed him in the throat with a switchblade knife while he was sleeping.
Henry confessed to Butch's murder as well as the rest of the recent murders.
