Kingsley Shacklebolt is a tall black wizard described by others as broad shouldered. He's bald and wears a single gold hoop earring. He usually dresses in clothes that resemble robes of African origin in cloth and color pattern. He is calm and controlled in demeanor and owner of a deep reassuring voice and commanding stature. A good judge of character, he trusts individuals regardless of age basing his judgements on his knowledge of their character and abilities.
Kingsley came from a fairly common background and is a pure-blood wizard himself, though he believes in equality and fairness for all wizards and muggles. He has even mastered the knack of dressing and acting like a muggle, which lead to his assignment to guard the Muggle Prime Minister during the Second Wizarding War as he posed as his secretary. He is brave enough to call Voldemort by his name, but now knows that it is dangerous and unwise to do so due to the Taboo on it. Shacklebolt is also loyal to the cause of the Order and an undeniable supporter of Harry Potter's efforts to defeat the Dark Lord.
After graduating from Hogwarts, together with the Marauders, Kingsley joined the Ministry of Magic as an Auror in training. This is why his participation was little in the First Wizarding War. Though in the second one, he has been present and active in several important events. He joined the Order of the Phoenix after the Ministry denied the obvious return of Voldemort, working as a covert operative and supplying the Order with important information.
Kingsley was also the one appointed to lead the task force searching for Sirius Black, but since he was a member of the Order as well, he sidetracked the investigation by feeding disinformation about his true whereabouts. He also volunteered to be a member of the Advance Guard, which had the mission to escort Harry Potter to the Order's headquarters in safety. He also participated in the Battle of the Department of Mysteries in which he dueled several Death Eaters before being bested by Bellatrix Lestrange.
After this event, he went to guard the Muggle Prime Minister and while still on this duty he participated on the Battle of The Seven Potters, riding a Thestral with Hermione Granger. They were chased by five Death Eaters and even briefly by Voldemort himself until the real Harry was revealed. They both managed to arrive at the Burrow without major injuries. Shacklebolt's own house was used as a safehouse to confuse the Death Eaters as to where the Order was truly taking Harry. He was the one to raise the question of their plan being betrayed and challenged Lupin with a personal question to insure his identity. They waited for the others to arrive and after relaying the need information discovered during the battle, Kingsley had to return to his bodyguard job.
It was also Kingsley who warned about the fall of the Ministry to Voldemort to the present at Bill and Fleur's wedding, allowing the trio to escape the following Death Eater attack on their location. He did this by sending his patronus, a lynx, to relay the information. He is back at the Ministry now, working from within to help undermine Voldemort's rule by supplying the Order with vital information from the regime. He also contributes to the Potterwatch radio broadcast under the alias of Royal, urging wizards to help protect muggle neighbors. After the deaths of both Albus Dumbledore and Alastor Moody, Kingsley Shacklebolt is now the acting leader of the Order of the Phoenix.
