Landon was raised in a loud, close-knit pureblood family where doors were never locked, dinners were never small, and someone was always arguing in the kitchen. Very little about him makes sense without that background. Family gatherings, barbecues, and long Sunday meals are still something he refuses to give up, no matter how demanding his work becomes.

He married Maria Brown young, after a relationship that managed to survive his early years of Ministry work, long hours, and more than one reckless assignment. The two of them remain deeply devoted to each other, to the point that most people who know them well have learned not to comment on it anymore.

Family comes first, always, even if he rarely says it out loud.

Background

Landon joined the Ministry shortly after returning from several years of traveling, originally taking a position in the Wizarding Event Concealment branch of the Magical Accidents & Catastrophes Department. What began as something to fill his time turned into the career he never left.

He spent most of his working life in the field, responding to magical incidents, containment breaches, and Statute violations both in Britain and abroad. Over the years he developed a reputation for being steady under pressure and unusually good at handling situations that had already gone wrong.

He eventually rose through the ranks to Senior Response Officer, then Division Lead, before leaving the Ministry for a short period in his forties, claiming he needed a change of pace. He returned not long after, taking on advisory work and later stepping back into active leadership.

His recent appointment as Department Head came after he was personally asked to return to the position following a restructuring within the Department. Those who know him well suspect he did not want the job, which is exactly why he was offered it.

Personality

Age has not changed Landon as much as people expect, but it has refined him.

He is still restless by nature, still dislikes staying in one place too long, but he has learned how to sit still when others need him to. He is traditional in most ways. He dislikes unnecessary drama, unnecessary paperwork, and unnecessary meetings, though he attends all three without complaint when the job requires it. He is protective of the people under his command, especially younger employees.

He laughs easily, cooks when he has time, still enjoys Muggle sports, and is known to leave the office early without warning if one of his grandchildren has a school event.

He flirts with no one anymore.

Except his wife, and even then only when he thinks no one is looking.
