| abstract | - __TOC__ The Bodes are the family that Samuel Capper married into in his youth. His wife, Helena, was the oldest of three children in the family and after her death, he retained some ties to them, remaining especially close to her sister, Juliet. The family itself is in the upper wizarding classes, or was. They were extremely wealthy but that wealth was lost during the war due to their Dark ties as their assets were seized. Extremely conservative, they raised their children with those ideals, of blood purity and class consciousness. Their eldest daughter, Helena, became a Death Eater and led her brother, Geoffrey, into it. It was only Helena who was caught and killed by the Aurors, however, and it is this that makes them angry at her. Her actions were not what disgusted her parents but the fact that she was captured and killed in the course of those actions.
