He dresses in robes for the most part but can be seen in muggle attire when going to London. He is right-handed.
    History:
    1849 | Zedock is born the first child to Neil and Ramona Proudfoot. Named after his great-grandfather, Zedock proves to have quite the personality from a young age, being obnoxious and loud until he gets what he wants.

    1852 | Zedock's younger sister, Patricia, is born.

    1855 | The final Proudfoot child, a son named Wesley, is born.

    1857 | Zedock shows his first sign of magic on a trip to magical toy store. After getting upset when his mother wouldn't allow him the shiny toy broom he wanted, a whole shelf of toys fell to the ground. He was a lovely child.

    1860 | Zedock enters Hogwarts and is sorted into Gryffindor. He takes a strong liking to his Charms and Defence Against the Dark Arts class, but highly dislikes all the book work involved with History of Magic.

    1862 | Zedock chooses to add Care of Magical Creatures, Arithmacy, and Ghoul Studies to his schedule. He quickly regrets everything to do with Arithmacy.

    1865 | Zedock takes his OWLs and gets satisfactory scores.

    1867 | Zedock takes his NEWTs and gets sufficient scores to take on the career of his choice. He begins his internship in the Dept. Magical Law Enforcement.

    1869 | Zedock finishes his internship and becomes an Obliviator.

    1873 | Zedock's father dies and he's left with his inheritance that's stored away in Gringotts until a day he finally needs it. It goes untouched for over a decade.

    1877 | Zedock moves with his family to Hogsmeade.

    1880 | Zedock is fairly interested in a girl named Rebekah McDonald but eventually she admits that she's not a virgin and he drops the acquaintanceship.

    1885 | With the school year coming to a close, the previous professor has vacated his position, leaving the position open. Zedock is highly qualified for the position, having been working with charms since 1869, and is hired.
