OPTIMER "COUGAR" SLAZER
Born to Kangersplas and Maria Slazer, he was an only child. His father worked for the Ministry of Magic in the Magical Military, and was promoted to Admiral Minister on the year that Cougar started Hogwarts.
Cougar was sorted into Ravenclaw. He was naturally gifted in all of his subjects, achieving eleven OWLs and seven NEWTs. He especially liked Potions, and with the help of Professor Caligo, he was accepted at Overbog University in the great city of that name in India.
He moved to India to study Magical Alchemy for five years. For a short time there he was engaged to be married to Indigo Platt, a young girl from Canada, who was studying on the same course as Cougar. But after many differences in opinions, they broke up and went their separate ways.
Cougar came back to Great Britain and applied immediately for the Potionmaster position at Hogwarts. He walked straight into the job and began spreading his knowledge of potions.
But it was not till the end of his first year teaching that he and Harry Potter were confronted by Lord Voldemort in the hallowed building of Hogwarts itself that he was given the respect he deserved. He fought Voldemort with Harry and they managed to hold him back till Dumbledore arrived on the scene.
This act achieved Cougar and Harry an Order of Merlin 2nd class. Through this a position of Headmaster of Durmstrang was offered to Cougar. He was convinced to take it, so he relocated to the Scandinavian Mountain ranges. In Durmstrang he made many changes, trying to model it on Hogwarts, without making it look as if he was.
He brought the Norse Minister for Magic to the Durmstrang institute and convinced him to pour millions into the education system. This increased school morale in general. He raided the school for unneeded spectres and spirits, and had them exorcised from the walls. But the most important thing which aggravated some of the older teachers a great deal, he lifted the rule of only allowing pure-blooded wizards into the school, which increased the number of pupils, which increased the educated wizard population in Scandinavia and Eastern Europe, which decreased poverty.
By the age of thirty-two, Cougar Slazer was a house-hold name. By the age of forty, he was offered position as Minister for Magic in Switzerland. By forty-six he had taken the position as Head of the Magical Empire State in Scandinavia. Finally at the age of fifty he was awarded Order of Merlin, 1st class, and recognised in all European countries.
Settling down with his Norse wife on a Scandinavian mountain plateau, he had several children. At the age of one hundred and six he died tragically as a cause of an avalanche falling upon his stately home.
