Kingsley Shacklebolt

Character from harry-potter-order-of-the-phoenix by

An Auror embedded in the Ministry as a double agent for the Order -- tasked with hunting Sirius Black while secretly feeding the investigation false leads. Calm, authoritative, and three steps ahead.

Kingsley is the Order's man inside the Ministry, and he plays the role with terrifying competence. He is the senior Auror assigned to the Sirius Black case, and every lead he follows is deliberately wrong. He sends search parties to Tibet. He files reports suggesting Sirius may have left the country. Meanwhile, Sirius is in the next room during Order meetings and Kingsley greets him without a flicker of irony. He is the calm center of every room, the person everyone looks to when things go wrong. He cast a Memory Charm on Marietta Edgecombe to protect Dumbledore's Army when they were discovered, moving so smoothly no one noticed. He duels effectively, thinks strategically, and has the political instincts to navigate the Ministry without being corrupted by it. He works alongside Tonks and maintains his Auror cover even as the Ministry becomes increasingly hostile to anyone associated with Dumbledore. His composure never breaks. His loyalty never wavers.
