— he walks through the world as ;
name → lucius malfoy pronouns → he/him identification → cis male year of birth → september 1953 - september 1954 face claim → joe alwyn blood status → pure-blood sexual orientation → sexually fluid occupation → socialite amongst high society in wizarding london   future information → husband of narcissa black, father of draco malfoy
— he is best described as ;
The FINER things in LIFE. He is a RICH set of ROBES, unwrapped from a SCENTED box & the LAVISH SMILE of someone who knows how to pose for the PRESS. He is CALCULATED & SCULPTED to SEEM TRUSTWORTHY. The scent of CHAMPAGNE and COLOGNE from PARIS, he is everything you DREAM of becoming, with a SLIGHT UNEASE he may be too PERFECT to even be REAL.
— his story starts with ;
tw: death
A proud and pampered young man who believes the world owes him everything and more, Lucius Malfoy is known for prowess, powers of persuasion and pompous attitude. The only child of Abraxas and Sulpicia Malfoy, Lucius was raised by his father, in the lap of luxury. Spoiled, Lucius was told every day that he would one day be the head of their family and the owner of Malfoy Manor. Born an only child, Lucius had no siblings to spar with but instead has cousins, LACHESIS MALFOY [cousin] and CALLIOPE MALFOY [cousin], the children of his father’s younger and only brother Ignatius Malfoy. The Malfoy’s considered themselves a noble house, with great power in the community and the story of his father and uncle working in tandem with other families in The Sacred Twenty-Eight to topple a muggle-born Minister for Magic, who had no business being in office. It was his father’s greatest wish that Lucius have a similar relationship with his cousins that his father had with his uncle, but for as long as he could remember, he found them both to be difficult. 
Lachesis was the most competitive and unpleasant person he had ever had the displeasure of being around. With a sly smirk as they got him into trouble at every turn and later convinced Calliope to back up their story. His cousins were only interested in having the approval of the elder members of their family and their relationship with Lucius was evidently not of importance. Thus sparked the feud between the Malfoys that only deepened after the passing of his father in his final year at Hogwarts. Beforehand, Lucius had seen himself as a socialite above all else, the person everyone wanted at their party where he could flirt with girls and say impressive things. He knew his friends viewed him as vapid but he didn’t care. With his uncle Ignatius now head of the family, Lucius began feeling the pressure to live up to his father’s expectation and quickly got to work strengthening his bonds with powerful people. 
Content with his friendships with DECIUS FLINT [best friend], RODOLPHUS LESTRANGE [close friend], ARISTAEUS GREENGRASS [close friend] CORDELIA DAVIS [former friend] and NATALIA SIMINOVA [close friend]; Lucius began setting his sights on more powerful friends, striking relationships with BELLATRIX BLACK [close friend], EVAN ROSIER [close friend], CASTOR WILKES [close friend] and ALFHILD ROWLE [close friend]. They were not of great interest to Lucius personality wise, often finding them brutish than his more refined friends, but he relished any opportunity to put Lachesis in their place and making connections with their friends was an important way of solidifying he was the Malfoy they would come to. A model student, Lucius was a prefect, a member of the Slug Club and a capable Seeker of the Slytherin Quidditch team. Upon graduating he was enthusiastic about leaving his life at Hogwarts behind and having time outside the walls to get a leg up in the political world and irritate his cousin, but Bellatrix Black had other ideas. 
Only a few years his senior, Bellatrix was known to be travelling with no plans of settling down, but those who were somewhat close to her knew that her desire to see the world outside of London cloaked the real reason she was missing. A dark wizard had whispered in her ear and asked her to collect followers she thought would be worthy of a seat at his table in the new world he was forging. From a line of purists happy to unseat a sitting Minister, Lucius was not surprised when one evening she told him of THE DARK LORD [leader] over dinner and his vested interest in Lucius. Naturally, Lucius graciously accepted Bellatrix’s invitation to meet the man causing such a stir in their city and was surprised at who he was greeted with. A handsome man, he looked just as much human as he and Bellatrix, but even in their brief meeting Lucius understood the power he wielded. Due to the Malfoy family’s political association, Lucius thought he could best serve The Dark Lord’s interest by gaining the ear of those in positions of power and quietly worked hard to distance himself from the pompous purist image people held of him. 
Throwing lavache balls at Malfoy Manor, he began reaching out to the likes of TIBERIUS MCLAGGEN [close friend/person of interest], BILLIUS WEASLEY [close friend/person of interest] HARRISON BAGNOLD [close friend/person of interest] AUGUSTUS ROOKWOOD [close friend/person of interest] and ISOLDE CROUCH [close friend/person of interest]. It was strange watching blood traitors and known do-gooders rubbing shoulders with The Sacred Twenty-Eight, knowing what their plans were but he took something of a private delight in that. One of the most powerful men in Wizarding London, he has a kind word on the lips of anyone at The Daily Prophet to The Minister of Magic herself. Lucius had a very clear idea of how The Dark Lord’s rise to power would go, a strong and steady rise as they slowly manipulated influential people to join their cause. Isolde was his primary focus, a Crouch she was well connected, with a sharp mind that would be useful to them. When it became clear that The Death Eaters thought the best route to power was violence Lucius wasn’t pleased and the death of the Minister’s son BOOKER BAGNOLD [former acquaintance] onwards has been nothing but a headache for him. 
Lucius had worked hard for the world to see him in the exact way he wanted and as rumours began to swirl about people he was associated with and his direct involvement in Booker’s death, he wasn’t happy. Thinking on his feet, Lucius made a beeline for ANDRESSA PARKINSON [partner]. A famed Witch Weekly model he attempted to cover up any bad press with dating rumours, which worked to his advantage. A beautiful witch, Lucius enjoyed having her on his arm at parties and was impressed with how she handled herself with his associates. Lucius wasn’t quite sure if he loved Andressa, but he admired her greatly, which was about as much emotion he’d mustered in years. A part of Lucius always wondered if she was the right one. A celebrity and now a bar owner, he sometimes felt she suited his pretend life rather than his real one, but was happy to be proven wrong. For now Lucius is focused on the task at hand, keeping his name in the press in a positive light, stopping the Bagnolds from predicting the storm that’s heading their way and getting one of Wizarding Britain's biggest families to see things from their point of view.

“Oh, Merlin, tell me, does THE NONCONFORMIST get what she deserves?” She is NEUTRAL & OPEN to finding out.“
— she walks through the world as ;  
name → cordelia davis pronouns → she/her identification → cis-female year of birth → september 1953 - september 1954 face claim → adelaide kane blood status → pure-blood sexual orientation → up to applicant occupation → healer on the ‘dangerous' dai llewellyn ward: for serious bites at st mungo's hospital future information → aunt of ernest macmillan, aunt of tracey davis
— she is best described as ;
The scent of ELEGANT PERFUME as it lingers down a STERILE HALL. She is the MILLION DOLLAR SMILE that BREAKS HEARTS and the BRAVERY to face ADVERSARY & LEAP into the UNKNOWN. HEADSTRONG enough to face life other than how it was intended for her, a lone GILDED BOAT on UNEASY OPEN WATERS.
— her story starts with ;
tw: death, tw: blood
Every first born will say the same thing. Expectation sits squarely on your shoulders. Born the future head of the Davis family, Cordelia Davis was to all who knew her, the perfect pure-blood daughter. The Davis family were an old pure-blood wizarding family from Kerry in Ireland who came over in the 1920s to set up Moribund’s an exclusive members only club, with a strict wealthy, pure-blood and anti-blood traitor policy. Interwoven with the usual lessons taught to children like Cordelia, were things like how to manage a business and extensive background on the wizarding families in Britain, including who were paying members of Moribund’s and which of their children would be in her academic year. Groomed to one day take over Moribund’s, Cordelia never had a moment to consider if she might want to choose another life other than the one that was being set out for her. Her siblings were not subject to the same level of conditioning as Cordelia, though her younger brother AJAX DAVIS [brother] was forced to sit in on some of her lessons. 
Their family had clear idas. Cordelia would run the business and her brother to marry into The Twenty-Eight and further strengthen the Davis line. Her youngest sibling ROSALINE DAVIS [sister] was their loose cannon, too difficult for her parents to wrangle when there was no need to do so. The Davis family weren’t in the Sacred Twenty-Eight, but Moribund’s made them just as good as. Sorted into Slytherin, she was fortunate enough to be in the same year group and house as LUCIUS MALFOY [former close friend], DECIUS FLINT [former partner/former close friend], EVAN ROSIER [former close friend] and ALFHILD ROWLE [former close friend] who were all paying pure-blood members of Moribund’s. Cordelia was a good fit for their group of friends, as was EMMA VANITY [former best friend] and INES MORENO [former best friend], whose families also paid their hefty club fees. Cordelia quickly rose in ranks at school, she looked exquisite in a ballgown and could take your money at poker. 
She didn’t have any friends who were even half-bloods, let alone muggle-borns and believed wholeheartedly that she was born into a position of power because as a result of good breeding. It was this way of thinking that landed her on the arm of Decius Flint. A very respectable member of the Twenty-Eight. Cordelia doted on him and loved him with all her heart and soul. It wasn’t just his title or family line that she was interested in, Decius longed to give her exactly what she wanted, a happy life filled with marriage and children who would one day inherit Moribund’s. Graduating a slug club member, a prefect, head girl and with a boyfriend most parents longed to secure for their own child, Cordelia was the envy of every debutant the year she came out. She sparkled amongst them and smirked privately as she read her name in the scandal sheets and considered how far she’d managed to advance her family reputation even in such a short while. Had the killings not began in London, Cordelia might have achieved the gilded life she’d always dreamed of. 
The day BOOKER BAGNOLD [person of interest] fell to his death in the fountain, she was only a few feet away. But that wasn’t the end of it. Although Cordelia wanted to assume the role as wife and mother in her later years, her younger years would be spent with a hands-on approach at Moribund’s, training the ideal staff and knowing the business inside and out before she let it run itself. Missing persons posters plastered the alleyway, with bodies found not too far from the club. The world had begun to make Cordelia feel nervous. Knowing this, Ines traded in her late night favourite spot at The Grave Affair to drink with Cordelia and keep her company. She loved her for it and although they had often sparred for popularity points in the past, in adulthood Ines was her very best friend. Her loss was of great pain to Cordelia. Just outside the club, Cordelia tried to stop the bleeding, holding on to Ines’ neck which now had giant claw marks running down it. Ines died in her arms that night and Cordelia’s life changed. 
Once a sociable witch, Cordelia became a prisoner inside the Flint family home. Her relationship with Decius came to an end when he told her he’d been sleeping with ANASTASIA SIMINOVA [adversary], blaming her disinterest in him and her lack of understanding for the reason. Home in her childhood bed, Cordelia considered how meaningless it all was. She’d spent her entire life working towards something that would never happen. Her relationship or her best friend couldn’t be saved and something had taken it from her. Cordelia’s decision to break with her family was not instantaneous, in fact the final straw came over dinner when Cordelia let her thoughts on blood purity be known. Though it was something she had once held in the highest regard, it was clear to her how little it mattered. It hadn’t spared Ines’ life and Decius had willingly left her for a half-blood. The world had changed and things like certain people liking you, or having pretty babies with someone who could leave you in an instant or you were expected to ignore their wandering eye, did not seem like a valuable way to spend her life. 
Her statements shocked her parents but Cordelia no longer cared. She wasn’t devoting her life to an institution she didn’t believe in and her parents had two more children anyhow. Taking her inheritance, she answered a spare room ad in The Daily Prophet and moved in with follow healers SAMUEL WAINSCOTT [close friend/housemate] and POPPY POMFREY [close friend/housemate] and Poppy’s younger sister PRIMROSE POMFREY [close friend/housemate]. Everyone from her old life wasn’t interested in associating with her anymore except for her brother and sister, although that was also away from prying eyes due to the reputation of Moribund’s. Cordelia’s life was different but she was happy. For once in her life she had a purpose she’d chosen for herself and that was to try and save victims in a silent war she already knew was being fought. Cordelia was drawn to the Dangerous' Dai Llewellyn Ward, tending after multiple bite and scratch victims all at the hands of a wolf. Times have grown darker and Cordelia is sure that the creatures are in some way playing a part. Although her friends think she’s crazy, Cordelia is sure she’s on to something and will stop at nothing to prove she’s right.
