( Feije. GMT+2. Twenty-two. He/Him. None. ) wands at the ready, SIRIUS BLACK has joined the fight! the EIGHTEEN year old works as a VAGRANT, but spends HIS time fighting for THE ORDER. SIRIUS is known to be LOYAL & HUMOROUS, as well as ARROGANT & REBELlIOUS. ( fc: Avan Jogia )
Tumblr media
Sirius was born into a family that expected complacency, conformity and purity. A family with a long history, dating back to the beginning of Wizardry. But Sirius wasn’t about that life.
Rebellious, different and a danger to the family’s good name. Sirius was everything that the Blacks feared from a child.
The tight straightjacket that had been forced around him only made him less inclined to follow the rules and regulations that had been laid out for him by his mother and father. He became scum in their eyes.
That was only amplified when he found himself sorted to Gryffindor in a family that had exclusively been sorted in Slytherin. It cast him out even further. So he had to find a family of his own, where his blood had cast him aside.
He found that family in James Potter, Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew, who not only became his friends but his brothers.
It wasn’t long until he was literally cast from his family. He had to seek refuge with the Potters, who kindly took him in. This did wonders for Sirius, who had never lived in a loving home.
TW. Mentions of: Alcohol Abuse, Drug Abuse, Disassociation. That day was one of the hardest in Sirius’ young life. The looks of disgust and hatred in his family’s eyes and the sheer lack of love and support from his brother, his blood, tore him apart. He spent an entire week on a bender, hopping from place to place and taking whatever he could into his body to ease the pain. He got out of it a week later with a tattoo he didn’t remember getting, a sore head and more marks on his body than he cared for. And he recollected none of it. As if he had been a different person for an entire week. This was also the start of his withdrawal from a more modal, normal life. This was the start of his nomadic ways. End of TW.
Now, after Hogwarts, Sirius is ‘between occupations’. Or rather, a lazy arse. Working on his projects and generally mooching off James.
He’s turned out a loyal if somewhat arrogant young stud with a streak for the mischievous and inappropriate. He is a fiercely loving friend and a passionate individual with a great love for life.
The boiling under the surface of the Wizarding World has seemingly little effect on him. He fights for his friends and for his own freedom. But the greater picture is lost on him.
He doesn’t want to be involved in the war, but the pull his friends have of him have caused his involvement. He wants as little to do with the Dark Side and Purebloods as he can. Because he knows that down that line, he’ll have to face people he considers blood. And he doesn’t know if he’s quite ready for that.
A few tidbits of headcanon.
Sirius’ disillusion with the Pureblood wizarding world has given him an intense interest in all things muggle, especially motor vehicles. You hardly spot him in Diagon Alley, because the world behind the world of Muggles has lost his interest.
He’s quite the mechanic and spends most of his free time working on cars, motorcycles, scooters and the like. It’s a way for him to disconnect from the world and spend some time in his own head.
He doesn’t have a permanent place to stay and prefers it that way, travelling around gives him room to think and find himself. Because he feels a little lost. His friends ground him, but sometimes that’s just not enough.
He has a very unique sense of style, wearing just about anything that will or won’t fit him, in no particular combination. He’s fond of hats, buttons and pins, as well as patches. His patches often refer to muggle social and economic issues, leaving many wizards guessing what he’s wearing.
He spents almost a third of his time in his animagus form, wandering the streets of British towns and cities. It’s much easier blending in as a stray dog.
Okay everyone, this is Sirius. The most punk rock of the puppers. Hope you’ll enjoy him!

"It gives me strength to have somebody to fight for;                    I can never fight for myself, but, for others, I can kill."
Tumblr media
⤷ ( jinx. pst. twenty-three. she/her. incest, eating disorders, self harm. ) wands at the ready, EMMELINE VANCE has joined the fight! the TWENTY FIVE year old works as a AUROR, but spends HER/THEIR time fighting for THE ORDER. EMMELINE is known to be RESILIENT & HARDWORKING, as well as OVERTHINKING & JUDGEMENTAL. ( fc: jessica henwick )
i’m jinx, i’ve been playing emmeline for over four years now i think? & i love her! this is long, beware, but i’m excited to be here !!
⟶ pinterest • biography ( to give a quick overview )
under the cut: abandoment mention, death mention, suicide mention, abuse mention
CHARACTER INSPIRATIONS: : Nikita Mears ( Nikita ), Misty Knight ( Luke Cage ), April Ludgate ( Parks and Rec ),Peyton Charles ( iZombie ), Prue Halliwell ( Charmed ), Jessica Jones ( Jessica Jones ), Sun Bak ( Sense8 )
under the cut: abandoment mention, death mention, suicide mention, abuse mention
Emmeline definitely comes off as a bit of an asshole/hardass, she was a prefect in school and she was gald to be so because she knew she held a position of power without abusing it to hurt people and she knows in times like these, that’s important. She wouldn’t say she’s a good person, mostly due to self esteem issues, but she wouldn’t say she’s a bad person either. When it comes to herself, she has a ton of insecurities, learned not to let them keep her from speaking up through years of building herself up. Not to let them fuck her up because in the end she is the only one she’s got.  People leave, and it hurts, but always expecting the worst, preparing for it, is better than being blindsided by it. Emmeline learned that the hard way when her mother, who she took care of for years even through the abuse, left Emmeline the minute she could. If her own mother left her, what would stop anyone else from it? In school, the first few years it was hard, she was constantly forcing herself to speak up but didn’t do so effectively until she got those positions of powers. One thing Emmeline ALWAYS did was stand up for other people. For herself? Not so much. Something she still struggles with now but in a less insidious way.
Speaking of her mother, halfway through her sixth year her mother left, leaving her to handle all the affairs, bills, etc. Definitely went through a stage after her mother left in her sixth year where she was lashing out at everyone around her verbally and probably didn’t apologize for it but showed she was apologetic in her actions, how she talked, and is really bad at apologizing for her own shitty behavior. Due to being a Scorpio & her upbringing, she’s bad at apologizing when she ACTUALLY does something wrong due to the shame she feels, thinking she’s acting just like her mother. She justifies it a lot, but also beats herself up about it. Emme really has grown a lot as a person since then and will continue to do so. Still, will OCCASIONALLY drink, if ever but has never smoked or done drugs in her life. She really hates being out of control in any sense, especially because of how her mother was drunk, and when she does go to events, gets really gets sort of appalled by people getting plastered and associates it with her mother. Emmeline is judgemental, but she’s able to challenge those judgements with logic, still, she’s quick to judge.
She’s so grateful for the few friends she has, especially the ones that keep her in line and challenge her. The ones who show her kindness when she needs it and she doesn’t even know she needs it. If you have Emmeline as a friend, you have Emmeline as a friend for LIFE. She’s loyal to the core, she will fight by your side ( something she’s excellent at doing with a wand ), she will die for them and show a softer, sillier side. It’s still extremely hard for her to open up and most of them didn’t know about her home life in school ( most still don’t to this day, as she hates sharing it ), though for the first six years of Emmeline coming to school, there were definitely bruises, scars, and things that could tip them off that something wasn’t quite alright. But she never ever wanted to talk about it because the pity she got after her father ended his life made things harder tenfold. She doesn’t want to be pitied, seen as weak or anything of the sort, especially by people who’s opinion she actually cares about.
Showed kindness to younger students and played wizarding chess with them, especially the ones bullied. The ones she notice may have bad home lives and no one to be there for them. Angry, is just one word to describe how she feels about the fact that Dumbledore probably knows about a majority of the hurt / bullying that goes on in and out of Hogwarts and doesn’t seem to do a damn thing about it – so she figures taking matters into her own hands by at least doing something is worth a try.  It would be awesome if she had a chess partner or someone she played chess with though that was her own age. Her father played chess with her growing up, and it’sA HUGE PART of the reason why she makes an excellent strategist for the Order and why she’s an excellent dueler now.
Emmeline blossomed her seventh year being Captain of the Dueling Club. For the first few years of Emmeline’s life at Hogwarts, she was very shy, very to herself, due to the trauma of losing her father, but when she discovered her gift with dueling it helped bring out a side of Emmeline that she didn’t even know she had. To say she’s gifted would be an understatement in this area, and it’s not just natural talent, it’s hardwork, it’s dedication, it’s the fact that she feels powerful and like she can take on all of her demons when she’s wielding a wand. It’s that with having such an ability, she saw a way out of her horrible home life & a future. Something a girl who’s used to just surviving never thought she’d be able to have, It was that, combined with the fact the world was so horrible that Emmeline realized she wanted to be an Auror when she heard of the profession. She’s willing to die to make the world a better place, a part of her wants to hunt down every dark wizard that’s made this magical world WORSE and Albus Dumbledore has already approached her about joining the Order after graduation.
IF I had to pick a label for her, it would be The Dark Knight. THE DARK KNIGHT label fits Emmeline Vance because whatever it takes to make the world a better place. Each of the character influences above have bent, broken, or disregarded the law entirely to help their friends or the people in need move forward and succeed. To get what they deserve. The LAW has never helped Emmeline, it has never been on her side, it has never saved her from the hurt she’s experienced when it should’ve – so she doesn’t believe in it. Even with her being an Auror, Emmeline hopes to be able to take advantage of that power to do more than what the law dictates.  Working within the SHADOWS comes naturally to Emmeline having to be a shadow in her own home for several years, learning the benefit of quiet survival. Of quiet rebellion & quiet living. She likes to work behind the scenes to do what she needs to in this war because that’s going to be a way she survives it. It’s the way the people she cares about & those who deserve it might as well. She doesn’t like any of the attention she may get just for doing the right thing because, in her mind, doing the RIGHT THING shouldn’t be praised – it should be the standard.
This isn’t to say that Emmeline is a paragon of righteousness – maybe of her own brand of it, yes, but she doesn’t always do the right thing. Sometimes, Emmeline can do the very wrong thing thinking it is the right thing – much like many of the characters above. There’s a guilt that comes with it, one she suppresses because it’s not helpful, though it comes POURING out into the same fuel that caused her to fuck up in the first place.  There is a cost of working in the shadows, of being so self sacrificing but she’s willing to pay it if means the world is better, lighter, happier, more equal. Her life, in the grand scheme of things, means nothing compared to the good she can make by sacrificing everything for it. Even her life.  Emmeline is a fighter, a survivor, and everyone’s survival looks a little bit like death sometimes. She is not afraid to embrace the dark, to become the dark, if it means the world gains a little light.
random factz:
emmeline CAN EAT. she loves food and eats as much of it she can. her favorite food is strawberry cheesecake.
does a really good impression of mcgonagall!!!
emmeline’s sexuality is confusing, she’s probably pan/bi but all she knows is she’s not straight and is sometimes interested in sex. regarding their gender, emme has never connected to either gender, of course because it’s the 70′s, she doesn’t know of a term for what that is. frankly, she has better things to think about than something like that but the idea of talking about it is strange to her, weird. self conscious, especially. since she’s a survivor at heart, she’s learned to compartmentalize these feelings & thoughts, and will just push it away for another time when she can actually have time to think about it. to unpack it. 
emmeline speaks french and english!! she’s not connected to being part chinese at all as she really didn’t get really any education from her family about it and tbh lived in a very white area and sort of assimilated to it. she has small memories, does go to/has gone to chinese new year events and has TRIED, but feels disconnected in everything besides the food. regarding this though, her dad’s from a v important pureblood family in china, he anglonized & changed his last name for Dorcas’ and his families protection ( there was a HELLA lot going on ) & so they could start fresh somewhere.
is still learning how to be a proper human and not just survive. NEEDS HELP!! lord knows she’s got an interesting fashion sense so she tries to stick to basic colors and neutrals and some NICE BLUES.
her favorite color is tardis blue and she LOVES doctor. she does have a scarf like tom baker’s.
that’s it thank you for reading1!!! if youd like to plot, like this ill come bother you!!
wanted connections: 
give me her auror partner! or some auror partners! mentors in the auror department!
people emmeline mentor/do rounds with while in the order! 
ex flings maybe??
ex something?? emmeline is difficult but i could see her being in love/having feelings for someone given the right circumstances etc. i doubt they’d be a thing now but angst! it could be angst! emmeline probs could’ve fucked it up/broken ur characters hearrt!!
ministry shit!! emmeline working with other ppl!!
friends from school!!! give me some friends!!!
rivals!! emmeline loved dueling and tbh she’d need a hella good person to rival her tbh?

⤷ ( britt. cst. twenty. she/her. drugs. ) wands at the ready, BENJY FENWICK has joined the fight! the TWENTY-FOUR year old works as a HIT WIZARD, but spends HIS time fighting for ORDER. BENJY is known to be PROTECTIVE & CHARISMATIC, as well as BROKEN & ANGRY. ( fc: nico tortorella )
Tumblr media
Benji was born into a bit of a harsh family. He was expected to be like his father; detached, masculine, tough, and manipulative when needed. He was also expected to be like his mother; cold, poised, and charming. It was hard to be those things when he always felt constricted in his own skin.
But the one thing that kept him going was his baby sister. She was his pride and joy, the one thing that brought light to a terrible life of dark. His halfblooded family might as well be pureblooded considering how he was treated, especially after his father remarried. 
Love wasn’t something he knew very well, nor was it something he wanted to know. When his Pureblooded father remarried, he married a pureblooded woman. In that family he was nothing. He was the lesser of the group, the less deserving of anything at all. He also acted out and did terrible things to get the pressure off of his sister. He wanted her to be seen as the angel while he was the bad guy.
Not going into much detail, but things grew worse and so did he. He felt into bad habits and started making terrible choices, but everything things when he was contacted by the Order. There was finally something he could do, something he could achieve.
Benj wanted to help innocent people and save whoever he could. He does a good job at bring some light to the group. He jokes around to hide how damaged he truly is on the inside... and he’s going to do everything he can to kill the bad guys.

I’m not going to go into the boring headcanons that everyone knows about Narcissa. Most of how I’m playing her, people will correctly assume so I’ll post a few of my own headcanons underneath.
⤷ ( britt. cst. 20. She/her. drugs. ) wands at the ready, NARCISSA MALFOY has joined the fight! the TWENTY THREE year old works as a SOCIALITE, but spends HER time fighting for NEUTRAL. NARCISSA is known to be LOYAL & PROTECTIVE, as well as COLD & STUBBORN. ( fc: sarah gadon )
Tumblr media
Narcissa is highly intelligent. She plays the perfect wife, the perfect daughter, the perfect woman because she knows it makes people respect her and see something that they want to be or want to have.
Growing up, she was used to putting on a facade to please her family. It’s why she was considered so perfect. As tiring as it may be, she knows that in the future this fake assumption these people have will come in handy.
Nobody truly knows the real her, and it’s something that makes her feel powerful. With having so much of her life thrust into the war, she needs to have some sort of hold in it.
(a little random headcanon) Narcissa wears a necklace that her mother gave her as a little girl. It’s a tiny pearl necklace, and when she got it she was so excited. Gifts were some of her favorite things to have, until she realized what it truly represents. It’s the hold her mother has on her. The hold she has on her entire life up to this very moment. Whenever her mother is in the same room with her, it almost feels as if the necklace is too tight. It’s something she hasn’t had the bravery to take off yet.
Family does mean everything to her. She truly loves her husband and vice versa. When she has a baby, she will protect them above all else. Even Bellatrix has a place in her heart despite how crazy she may be. And Andromeda... cissa loves her but she can never show it.

⤷  ( torro.  aest. twenty. she/her. n/a. ) wands at the ready, ALECTO CARROW has joined the fight! the NINETEEN year old works as a BARTENDER, but spends HER time fighting for THE DEATH EATERS. ALECTO is known to be CONNIVING & ALLURING, as well as VINDICTIVE & UNFORGIVING.  ( fc: madelaine petsch )
okay so same deal, i haven’t played alecto in a very long time and i’m still kinda fleshing her out, so these are just the basics for now. you can expect some edits and additions in the near future.
so basically the carrows were not super wealthy or influential or anything, they lost most of their social standing quite a few years back, before alecto was born but they clung desperately to their pride. the fact that they carried a name of the sacred 28, made them superior to most of the wizarding world.
as a result, alecto was instilled with a very strong sense of pride and ambition. alecto very much has a ‘better than you’ attitude and acts as though she’s above everyone else.
that said, she has a lot of insecurities. she feels it’s her responsibility to restore her family’s legacy and is a bit of a social climber. she can be a little rough around the edges, but she tries to hide that in order to gain the approval of the other pureblood families.
kinda idolizes the black sisters, bellatrix in particular. despises andromeda for literally having it all and choosing to walk away from that.
honestly kind of a flirt. a bit of a femme fatale type, her obsession with social climbing has led to her adopting that kind of personality and she kinda revels in seducing people and using them for her own gain.
definitely not at the point we see her in the books where she’s lets face it, full on psycho who enjoys torture and murder but she’s definitely getting there. she’s very passionate about the death eater cause and would do pretty much anything to prove her value. for sure wouldn’t have much hesitation in doing whatever was asked of her 100% would not hesitate to kill a bitch if they came near her brother.
amycus is her life. she’d do literally anything to protect him. probably the only person she truly feels she can let her guard down around and is worried about him 24/7.

wands at the ready, BENJY FENWICK has joined the fight! the TWENTY year old works as a MINOR LEAGUE QUIDDITCH COMMENTATOR, but spends HIS time fighting for THE ORDER. BENJY is known to be EASYGOING & PERCEPTIVE, as well as NONCHALANT & REACTIVE. 
Tumblr media
                hey everyone!! i’ve never played benjy before but i’ve written him in a few fics and tbh i’m ??? so excited to bring him to y’all!! he has a pinterest HERE and when it’s not 2am i’ll give him a connections page haha so watch this space! also i chose that gif bc i cannot stop laughing at it lmao
                AESTHETIC: balancing a chair on its back legs, an easy grin, quick fingers, muggle comics, cans of coke, bomber jackets, denim, tracing patterns on friends’ skin, a carefree grin on the eve of battle, eyes always reacting, a shock of laughter in the dark of the night, scuffed shoes, homemade popcorn, spray paint, sunglasses af, walkman in your jacket
                CHARACTER INSPO: jack wilder (now you see me); johnny storm (marvel comics); joel “drainpipe” edwards (vinyl); sam wilson (mcu); some aspects of steve harrington in there too (stranger things)
my muggleborn son’s a libra ( oct 4 ) ( this is bc it’s my friend’s birthday and sometimes i look at him and i’m like... wow benjy got some of his chill from you huh )
year above the marauders and co., fellow gryffindor!!
was gryffindor keeper in his seventh year
currently works as a quidditch commentator in the minor leagues ( as in, not international. probs like ballycastle bats vs appleby arrows kinda thing, so if you’re character’s a quidditch player, quidditch reporter or even just a quidditch fan, hmu!!! )
benjy voice: “first thing’s first, i’m the realest CHILLEST”
arrived at hogwarts as a fan of rugby ( union, he doesn’t really fuck w league tbh ), football, comics and muggle music and was like ??? y’all have moving posters ??? more importantly, y’all actually fly on brooms ??? i thought that was a stereotype
he loves having magic but he’s never lost his muggle roots
honestly thinks some of the shit the purebloods pull ( not the genocide stuff, gross, he’s fighting against that; the stuff like owning peacocks lmao ) is fucking hilarious and can be found in the daily prophet offices just to drop in on mary and lily like “guys i have the funniest pureblood story to tell you lmao”
actually really perceptive, and surprisingly good at advice sometimes, like usually he’s just chill and up for a laugh ( he and mary are legit this video, thx jinx for sending it to me and giving me a good lol ) but ?? he’s pretty observant and he cares about his friends. he’s not, like, particularly fervent or feels the need to show it in a tangible, explicit way, but he’s always... there? like if you just need someone to sit with in the night, he’s there, and if you need someone to go to a bar with and mainline tequila until you can forget the eyes of the people you fought that night, he can do that too
but yeah he’s p ?? lowkey perceptive sometimes honestly. like. he’s just like, when his friends are being dramatic and beating themselves up for stuff, like — here for home truths, but usually delivers them softly/low key
“mate am genuinely jus here for a laff x”
would looooove some friendos his age too! he looooves his muggleborn gryffinsquad always ofc ( and the other order members for sure!!! but he def has a special squad vibes w his muggleborn gryffintrio BUT HMU ORDER ALWAYS he’s like “yeah man, let’s hang & fight the darkness at the same time AYYYYOOO” ) but he was at school w/o them for a whole year + like, he’s a fun guy, give him all the friends
theoretically smart enough to not rile death eaters. jury’s out as to whether he decides to follow this reasonable approach LMAO
has probably ironically finger gunned enough that even he’s not sure if it’s ironic anymore
the sunglasses emoji
on a more serious note, he’s... not afraid to die, like he does think it’s worth it, but at the same time, it isn’t really something that feels real to him??? like as a possibility??? like intellectually he knows it is but like... he can’t imagine it happening, not really, not yet, you know??
call him mudblood and honestly depending on who you are, he’s probably gonna shoot you a shit-eating grin and give you the finger guns or raise an eyebrow at you. call his friend that and he might punch you though lol
but like, more on the mudblood thing: he doesn’t like it, ofc not, but it’s sorta like — don’t let the bastards get you down?? like, damn, it’s so much easier to treat it irreverently and let it lose its power?? which was... harder when he first understood what it meant ( which was after being told, properly—it was when he first really felt the hate and scorn that came with the word being thrown at you ) but now it’s almost second nature
he actually has a lot of chill ( i thank his libra-ness tbh ) and a dry sense of humour a lot but like. v much ready for the fight
really good at picking locks lol. “nothing is ever really locked”
has had pink streaks in his hair before he don’t care. loves the muggle rock and punk. also spray paint. he’s my cool lil vandal
def not a rich kid. doesn’t get to see his fam as much anymore but he’s like ?? honestly he loves them and he figures he sees them sporadically which is like? normal for someone his age? lmao. like all his muggle friends are living away from their fam too. but yeah he grew up with hand-me-downs and his mother working double shift and his little brother dumpster diving for shoes to play footy in. it got a bit better when his dad came back into the picture — still not with his mother ( which benjy’s glad for lmao. he gets along all right with both of them, but they were never a good combo in his opinion ) but back in town and with a steady job and he was helping support benjy’s school stuff and his little brother jamie’s schooling and stuff. so benj knows his fam’s all right now, but he never grew up with spare cash
looooves his walkman lmao
THIS pinterest board is for a group of characters ( including benjy ) in a muggle au fic but honestly a lot of it still vibes him lmao
yeah so!! if ya wanna hang or plot w this chill order bub, hmu!! loves the order. significantly less keen on death eaters lmao

                🐍  --- wands at the ready, NARCISSA MALFOY has joined the fight! the TWENTY THREE year old works as a HOUSE WIFE & PHILANTHROPIST, but spends HER time fighting for THE DEATH EATERS. NARCISSA is known to be DEVOTED & PROTECTIVE, as well as HAUGHTY & PREJUDICED. ( fc: josefine frida pettersen )
AESTHETIC: emerald green velvet, collar bones, goblets, blood red lipstick, whispering, walking alone at midnight, diamond encrusted jewelry, vines that crawl up the side of an old manor, six inch stilettos, clumps of cash held together with a silver chain, masquerade masks, silk sheets, fur coats, the hair on the back of your neck standing up.
her pinterest board can be found here.
guess who’s back !! it’s me !! with this absolutely phenomenal woman !! get ready for a wild ride y’all because this is gonna be a rollercoaster of emotions.
FULL NAME: narcissa ophelia malfoy (nee. black)
narcissa: as a girls' name is of greek origin, and the meaning of narcissa is “daffodil”. feminine of narcisse, which comes from the legend of the beautiful greek youth who became enamored of his own reflection --- hence "narcissism".
ophelia: of greek origin, meaning “help”.
SEXUALITY AND GENDER: 
demisexual, heteroromantic | cisgender female
BLOOD STATUS:
pureblood
HOGWARTS HOUSE: 
slytherin (though she had to convince the sorting hat. it almost put her in hufflepuff)
WAND:
cedar wood: cedar wands are found with those who possess strength of character and unusual loyalty. it was said by gervaise ollivander that you “will never fool the cedar carrier,” and these wands often find home where there is perspicacity and perception. it is unwise to cross someone who carries a cedar wand, and especially so if you do harm to somebody they care about. not to be foolishly challenged, owners of cedar wands are frightening adversaries.
unicorn hair: unicorn hair generally produces the most consistent magic, and is least subject to fluctuations and blockages. wands with unicorn cores are generally the most difficult to turn to the dark arts. they are the most faithful of all wands, and usually remain strongly attached to their first owner, irrespective of whether he or she was an accomplished witch or wizard.
length & flexibility: ten and three quarters of an inch, slightly flexible.
SKILLS:
having been raised as a proper, high society lady, narcissa possesses a plethora of skills.
languages: narcissa is fluent (can read, write, and speak) in english, german, and french, and she can also speak conversational russian. 
music: narcissa has played the piano since she was five years old. it is the one thing in her life that has always been constant. she’s terrific at it, and often when she’s feeling emotional she’ll turn to piano to feel better.
occlumency: a skilled occlumens, this is one talent narcissa keeps a secret. her eldest sister is also an occlumens, and it was from her that narcissa’s want to learn sprouted.
lying: it was a big part of her childhood. being the baby of the family, narcissa was incredibly spoiled when she was a little girl. her father was quite absent most of the time but her mother doted on her like crazy. narcissa, however, wasn’t a fan of the doting. she preferred to be by herself, and was annoyed by her mother constantly being around her. but, she felt ungrateful, and therefore put up a front of enjoying all the spoiling and attention because she wanted to make her parents happy. she carried this with her throughout her life, often telling people something for the sake of their happiness and not meaning it at all. 
PERSONALITY:
narcissa’s personality is complex
she was a sickly child. her parents weren’t young when she was conceived, and because of this she was born a month and a half premature. this lead to breathing issues and when she was a girl she fell sick with pneumonia every winter. her constant illness displeased her father (he didn’t want a weak child. never mind the fact that narcissa was his last chance at a male heir and she was ... well ... a she) and worried her mother. this caused her to have a lot of independence issues. she leaned on her older sisters and her mother a lot, and avoided her father like the plague.
spoiled to high heaven that girl was. she wanted for nothing, and got everything she could ever ask for. to say she didn’t enjoy it would be a lie. it was nice getting all the new dresses she wanted and fancy toys and the latest models of brooms. but it made her feel like she owed her parents something. 
in her heart she truly is kind. you can tell in the way that she interacts with the people she cares about. her heart is in the right place, but kindness often coexists with being impressionable, which she definitely was. because of her constant exposure to her mother due to being bedridden, and the fact that she was often told she was weak because of her health, she had prejudiced and racist ideals forced upon her from a young age and soaked them up like a sponge. she grew up being taught that anybody besides those of pure blood were equal to nothing. she didn’t know why, but she never questioned it for fear of angering her parents whom she loved so dearly. the only person who ever questioned anything in their family was andromeda, and that ended with her being disowned and burnt off the family tree.
she’s ??? really emotionally repressed ??? i mean what black family member isn’t, really, but she takes it to an entirely new level
because of her father’s hard (literal and figurative) hand and her mother’s doting, narcissa was raised with a weird combination of parenting techniques that left her feeling as if she deserved everything the world had to offer while simultaneously being angry with herself for expecting that. 
this turned her into a very torn up young woman. pack teenage angst on top of a feeling of both inferiority and superiority and you get somebody who doesn’t know how to handle their emotions at all
she wasn’t really that pretty when she was young. she wasn’t unattractive by any means, but she had stringly, bleach blonde hair and large doe-eyes that made her look slightly otherworldly. her pointed features were slightly covered by a layer of baby fat. she wasn’t anything special, anyways. it broke her mother’s heart that she wasn’t as beautiful as her sisters had been at that age.
super elegant and polite. she’s the definition of classy and her manners are far above those of most people her age. she was taught to always respect her elders and slip-ups in the manners department usually resulted in a smack from her father so she grew to be very good with them.
barely smiles because smiling causes wrinkles and also lowkey she has nothing to smile about ?? her life is a mess
a+ at hiding her feelings. she’s a closed book. it’s “unrefined” to feel much of anything so she prefers to put up a cold and judgmental front that keeps people away. getting close to somebody means eventually having to open up and she has way too much secret baggage. trunks and trunks full. this is what makes being married to lucius so difficult, because he likes to know everything and she doesn’t like people knowing anything about her.
loves kids. so much. she would have loved to work with children but having a job is for lower class women and mudbloods. it’s much better for her status-wise to just be a pretty thing on lucius’ arm than to actually act like she has a mind of her own. she was never allowed to have one growing up so why change now ???
she’s very set in her ways because they’re all she’s known and it’s easier to be the way she always has been than to try and change now. deep down she wants to, because she doesn’t like who she is that much (surprisingly. you’d never know it because she seems very conceited) but going against the norm of how she was raised is not only frowned upon, but dangerous.
too loyal for her own good. it’s what’s kept her devoted to a terrible cause and her terrible family her entire life. she believes strongly in the power of forgiveness, if not for the other person than for yourself.
she’s very protective of those she cares about. namely, her parents and bella. she would gladly lay her life on the line for her family and not bat an eye.
despite this her personality has a lot of negatives too. she is definitely prejudiced. regardless of whether she wants to change deep down, she is still very terrible to those she views as being “below her” --- aka, anyone who isn’t also from a rich, pureblood family. she isn’t directly cruel to them, but she’s mastered the art of backhanded compliments very well and uses them often. 
believes herself to be better than most people, especially when it comes to looks. because she was so average for so long, when she finally grew into her sharp features and large doe-eyes she had a moment of clarity about how beautiful she really was. she knows she’s gorgeous and isn’t afraid to flaunt it, quite arrogantly might i add.
OTHER:
she has more money than she knows what to do with, so she makes very large, anonymous donations to groups known to be against the dark lord. mostly orphanages for mudblood and halfblood children who had their parents killed in the war. 
publicly she also makes donations to many organizations, to help keep up the image of her and lucius whilst he does shady things under the table, such as ... y’know ... being a death eater. their philanthropic work keeps them in the good books of the higher ups, and makes them harder to pin for crimes that are blamed on the dark lord’s followers. after all, why would they help fund a new initiative for tracking death eaters if they were involved themselves ???
narcissa hasn’t taken the mark herself. she doesn’t have any desire to. she prefers to watch from the sidelines and take a neutral stance that is still supportive of the blood purists. she figures that, if the dark lord falls, it will be easier for she and lucius to keep their comfortable lives if one of them is “completely disassociated” from that life style.
her parents married her off to lucius malfoy as a political move, similarly to bellatrix’s marriage to rodolphus lestrange.
she has settled into her role of being lucius’ trophy wife well. while she doesn’t love him or find herself attracted to him, she’s good at keeping up an image. in public she seems like a beautiful, complacent, well-bred wife. behind closed doors she rarely speaks to him unless she really has to, because there are aspects of his personality that remind her of her father and that frightens her.
she loves dogs, and has an afghan hound named dionysus.
collects brooches. you will never see her wearing an outfit without a statement brooch.
more will be added to this as i explore cissa’s character !! like this if you’re interested in plotting and i’ll message you <3

intro
Tumblr media
--Wands at the ready, SEVERUS SNAPE  has joined the fight! The EIGHTEEN  year old works as a POTIONEER but spends HIS time fighting for THE DEATH EATERS. SEVERUS is known to be BRILLIANT & LOYAL as well as AWKWARD & INSECURE
-- The above should probably be more specific, Sev’s insecure about most things, but not his intelligence. He’s an advanced student with a lot of talent and he knows it. In fact, he’s downright cocky about it.
-- NO ONE calls him Sev, not since Lily. ((secretly he’s still hoping that one day he hears it, in her sweet voice, calling from around a corner))
-- He didn’t want to study Potions, necessarily, he wanted to distance himself from his family as much as possible. When he realized that he had a knack for it, that he found confidence in the mastery, he gave up fighting and threw himself into the course.
--He’s really neat with his things. He’s not the cleanest guy, he’ll often neglect things like dusting and vacuuming to read / learn / brew a new potion.
--He’s not afraid to say that he hates his father, the feeling so viscerally real inside him that it’s become part of who he is, but he won’t explain why even if people would understand. He has a soft spot for his mother but he does not talk about it under any circumstances ever.

Tumblr media
ISABELLA FLUME has joined the fight! the TWENTY-SEVEN year old works as a MANAGER/OWNER OF HONEYDUKES, but spend HER time fighting for NEUTRAL. ISA is known to be INTELLIGENT & MATERNAL, as well as PEOPLE PLEASING & OVERTHINKING. ( fc: deborah ann woll )
AESTHETIC: always having a deck of cards & candies in her robes, sugar, curiosity, rain, worn hardback books, broken paper back spines, courage that doesn’t roar, learning to abandon masquerades but having trouble not telling white lies, a fire crackling, exploding when you least expect it, hiking trails. fighting through the fear, recovering one day at a time, forcefully finding peace & purpose while the world is falling apart.  PINTEREST: [ x ] 
triggers: eating disorder tw ( i will specifically label it ), illness tw, 
quick points before her bio!!!
don’t call her bella, bells, you can use isabella but that’s usually if you know her, she’ll usually introduce her name as isa. Edgelord obviously™
Tired Mom Friend
is a halfblood but her parents have paraded her as a pureblood for A WHILE
The War is a lot and she’s neutral, wants to know how to help but is scared. gets a lot of pressure to mingle with prejudiced purebloods and did as a kid and in school but the past few years she’s gotten more distant. doesn’t believe in blood prejudice, but also doesn’t really know where her place is to help in the war. 
if u ever hear this lady raise her voice LMK!!! or run cause she is v soft spoken
just a heads up -- i have extensive experience and have done research w/ eating disorders, and im not here to glamorize it, use it as a plot device etc. still, i will tag it so it doesn’t trigger anyone else!!! 
BIOGRAPHY ( it’s long sorry ):
Born on the cusp of winter and spring, March 21, 1951, was a day her parents, Michael and Amelia Flume, cherished. They were two highly respected Aurors who had been trying for the longest time to conceive children — their  window of opportunity was running out. It was their only way they could think of keeping their marriage together, especially after the war. Both had been through a great deal, including losing two of their previous children after Grindewald ( due to fallout of them being Aurors )  and found themselves irreparably changed — but scared of being alone. In turn, they clung to each other and decided to build a new life — starting by restarting a family. Her mother who was almost too old and weathered to have children, went to healer after healer, trying everything she could to have a child. Finally, their miracle of miracles, Isabella Marié Flume was born.
They spoiled their daughter rotten and made sure she was educated in absolutely anything and everything from a young age. Her mother, Amelia, was harder on her daughter than her father was ( they had been trying to re-enter Pureblood Society as a means of protection, hoping that it would help them survive which reflected their parenting style towards their daughter ). Especially when it came to food and appearance. She wanted her daughter to be the epitome of perfection but not only that, to grow up a strong woman. Amelia felt by being tough on her daughter, this would cultivate a strong exterior. While this did happen, Isabella was also utterly miserable. Instead of playing wizard games with the other children in Godric’s Hallow, Isabella was learning French, and just injected with all kinds of knowledge she didn’t really want at the time. Happy was what she wanted, and happiness to her was in the form of being free, especially from these expectations — but going outside to play would do.  Isabella never got the chance and eventually gave up trying to fight her parents, and ultimately instead started trying to please them.
Still, the absence of the children they should have had, weighed heavily on Isabella’s shoulders. Late at night when they thought their prized daughter was asleep, her parents would bicker and cry about how much they missed their other children. Amelia and Michael blamed each other — and all this made Isabella want to do was make them happy even if it meant sacrificing her own happiness. The only truly happy childhood memories Isabella could draw around her childhood revolved around food — which was a great coincidence seeing as her uncle owned the infamous Honeydukes Sweet Shop. She was always completely entranced when she went in, and Ambrosius and Arabella Flume always gave her the parental love she desperately needed and was lacking. Once her mother saw her love sweets she nicknamed her daughter  “Belly”, in an attempt to maybe get her to lay off the candies. It didn’t really work, so her mother’s primping and comments became frequent.
Isabella tried to be what they wanted and failed at first when she was sorted into Ravenclaw instead of prized Slytherin. But her parents overlooked that first transgression — Ravenclaw was respectable. Isabella became the perfect daughter they wanted her to be. Seeker on the Ravenclaw Quidditch team her Second year. Made prefect in her  fifth year. But — when they wanted her to make Captain in her Seventh as well as Head Girl — she faltered. Isabella was just average at best. She had reached her potential and it was never enough. The girl was under such pressure, one day she just snapped and yelled at her parents, telling them what she thought. Her parents then started to fight, and blaming each other.  In turn, Isabella once again felt she had to make them happy. The cycle continued.
[ !!!! eating disorder tw !!!! ] It was in the beginning of that seventh year that Isabella fully started to feel her parents pressure. Food became a comfort, and she’d often sneak to her uncle and aunts shop to binge on sweets whenever she was nervous or anxious about something. Then, because she felt guilty for eating so much, she’d force herself to throw it up. This became a coping mechanism, and it gave her a sense of calm until it just became something she couldn’t stop. Bulimia was something all her own, something her parents didn’t control. Something she was good at. [ eating disorder tw end ] 
[  eating disorder mentions ] At the start and for a long time after that, Isabella’s life became a blur. After she graduated, she desperately wanted to move to Romania to work with dragons for a year before becoming an Unspeakable — but it was something her parents disapproved of. Isabella ended up taking a lot of shifts at her uncle’s store, Honeydukes, and when her uncle fell ill — they trusted her to take care of the store. Since her aunt was always taking care of her husband, they gave complete ownership to Isabella — who now feels completely bound to it. Her and her eating disorder are in a hellish like equilibrium. To try to cope further with it, she’d engage in excessive drinking, meaningless sex, drugs occasionally on nights because being in her head was too much to handle. She clung to it, it was her, an escape but knew after a while that those were horrible behaviors to have and a disease that eats away at her even with magic.
The years she was supposed to use finding herself and discovering who she was have been used to help with Honeydukes and fuel her disorder. She finally looked into treatment and luckily St. Mungos had very good outpatient treatment when the Muggle World hadn’t even had a name for her eating disorder - bulimia - yet. Isa didn’t know much about what she wanted to do with her life, but she knew it wasn’t destroying herself. Finally, with intensive outpatient treatment and Isa opening up to and getting support from some friends -- she got better. She became more open. She fought for herself and her sanity and has been in recovery for over two years, healthier than she’s been before.  [  eating disorder mentions end ]
You’ll more than likely see Isabella walking around with a bright smile, walking around, talking with her customers, getting to know each in every one of them. Isa is very caring, extremely kind, but also very nice which sometimes make people think she’s a pushover which she’s really not ( anymore ). She does like to please people, something she’s still not managed to shake off as time has gone by and what really tethers her to Honeydukes but she’s trying to make the best of it. Being very soft spoken, it’s been really hard for Isa to stand up for herself as well, something she’s working on. She still goes to therapy, because while everyone else is fighting a war on the outside, she’s waging an internal one that she needs to win more than ever on the inside. There’s a guilt she feels, not being more active in the war effort but also a wonder of what she COULD actually do help. 
that’s it im done phew pls like it if you’d like to plot!!

CHARACTER INSPO: Margo Hanson ( The Magicians ), Gina Linetti ( B99 ), Spencer Hastings ( PLL ), Cristina Yang ( Grey’s Anatomy ), Rachel Green ( FRIENDS ), Ben Wyatt ( Parks & Rec ), Ella Lopez ( Lucifer )
INFO: → biography • stat sheet 
TRIGGERS: racism, prejudice, ptsd, drugs
OOC: i’m jinx, i also play emmeline vance  !! mary & emmeline are two of my fave characters to play and they both vary HEAVILY but i’m so glad to be playing them here!! my blog is also under construction but i wanted to get this intro out!! 
alright, i love mary so much and i’ve been playing her for like 3 and half years so there’s a GOOD chance this will be about as long as her bio fml
mary is a posh kid!! she’s a virgo/libra cusp born september 23!! she grew up hella rich!!in london!! like the super nice ass part you see in photoshoots!! had all the comics books and things in the world!! her dad’s a criminal defense lawyer, a good one, her mom a socialite, her brother is going to be a doctor. they were a perf family except mary who would always get her dresses dirty and just mess shit up. dance on tables, ask too many questions, even though she tried to fit in with them she just didn’t. honestly, she got better at being the ‘perfect daughter’ when she was older but we’ll get to that later. at nine, she started showing signs of magic and kept it to herself, she thought it WAS AMAZING. literally cried because she was so happy, she went to show her brother who was fucking shocked. she showed her parents and they were like!! put that demon shit away what the FUCK.
so when a person named mcgonagall said she was a witch, her dad was like uhhhhhh okay not in my house BYE. but they didn’t deny their little freak child a chance to go to hogwarts. they lied to all their friends and told them their daughter was at an elite boarding school. mary went along with it, still not understanding why they hated it so much, but wanting to please them anyways. she lied her ass off about it, it almost became a game.
getting to hogwarts was the best thing for her, truly. she could’ve probably fit into any house but at heart was a gryffindor. she realized from a young age she wasn’t the most powerful witch, so she’d compensate by being the smartest and most knowledgeable. she worked so fucking hard. mary is that friend you don’t understand how she gets all that fucking work done or how they do so well, because they seem to be lazy and fuck around a lot. but mary is a perfectionist, so while she cultivated a chill image, she’d be up for days, strung out on caffeine and GRINDING. she was a social butterfly as well, spoke her mind, and just thrived at hogwarts. she’d encountered prejudice and racism before, she was one of the only biracial kids she knew, and her mother was fond of skin lightening creams. so, being called a mudblood, while hella upsetting, was just something she had to push away. she was mad about it, but she wasn’t going to let it stop her from living her best life.
her fifth year was REAL shitty tbh, the summer before it, she had fallen in love for the first time and had her heart SHATTERED. so she just was really cynical about shit. she would shoot off at the mouth, get into fights, and honestly, i can’t imagine her not goading mulciber to an extreme degree for her to be attacked. like i really think she took her anger out on him and he just went off back. i imagine the attack, while she was fine physically after lots and lots of fucking healing spells and potions, she had to go to st. mungos anyways because of the mental damage. here’s a para about it. this does depend on if we ever get one if thats cool w/ the mulciber but she definitely could’ve started it.
but like a phoenix, she rose, healed, and is still healing. sixth year was rough but she fucking made it. seventh year is when mary came more into her own, she was PRESIDENT of the wizarding card collectors club, she came out to her parents as bisexual. her brother accepted her though they did not and basically quietly disowned her. they made an agreement that she could have her trust fund and monthly payments from them if she showed up at events for them and kept their image clean. she agreed because she needed the money as she had no idea what she was going to do with her life at that point, and because she does love them, though she no longer seeks their approval. getting a job at the prophet after graduation was amazing because mary does love to write, it’s a passion of hers she quietly cultivated over the years, but more so, she loves the access it gives her to info for the order. she’s tried to work as a war correspondent but since i dont imagine a lot of ppl taking her seriously, she gets annoying fluff pieces + she’s fairly new. this gives her time to babysit some of the order members kids or just as a trusted protector when some family’s were scared. mary is cool with children bc her ass sometimes acts like a damn child!!! but if you’d like to have it so mary babysits your chars children, i’m totally down!
originally, mary was not in the order, but she begged dumbledore to let her in as an owl, informant, and as someone who apparates into sticky situations/battles/etc. and makes sure the members don’t kill themselves or push themselves when they should be falling back. she saw there was a need for it when her friends would come home exhausted and bruised, as did older members who were valuable and just wanted to save their asses bc it’s the most she could do. so if you want mary to have saved your characters ass, hmu!! she’s great at apparition, so dumbledore was like FINE. also because he knew she wouldn’t stop bugging him about it and would be better to have under his watch. honestly, mary understands wanting to give your life for the cause, i imagine she does have ptsd from the incident, but she’s trying to keep some hope up for her friends ( even tho she gets more cynical and honestly on bad days is REALLY cynical openly ) bc she’s dependent on them tbh and loves them more than anything. 
mary loves smoking pot honestly, it’s part of her amortentia. she’s got a really good hook up from her ex who broke her heart LOL. she uses him cause he feels shitty and guilty af. so. also, if you need an ex-gf connection where the character broke your character’s heart – mary is probably the right person for it! she’s not great with romantic relationships and probs messed shit up, so just hmu. she’s bisexual so, it’s open to anyone. mary loves her butt and is allergic to raspberries but loves them so just lets her face get puffed up
*lin manuel miranda voice* damn you got no chill! FUCKIN’ RIGHT IM RELENTLESS!
anyways!!! i could go on but i’m going to stop there, thank you for reading!! pls like this if you’d like the plot!! tbh i’ll be slow BUT feel free to assume connections!!

wands at the ready, BELLATRIX LESTRANGE has joined the fight! the TWENTY SEVEN year old works as SOCIALITE , but spends HER time fighting for THE DEATH EATERS. BELLATRIX is known to be DISCIPLINED & STRATEGIC, as well as DOMINEERING & UNSTABLE.
Tumblr media
YIKES, i’m bringing in a third and she’s the absolute worst!!
LINKS: pinboard & stats page.
TRIGGERS: sexism, there’s a warning before the bullet points <3 there’s also some hints at emotional abuse throughout but nothing specific
history!
bellatrix was born a slight disappointment, but later just became a challenge. her mother wished for her to be prim and proper, while her father tried to shape her into the son he had never had — it was confusing, at times, but bellatrix EXCELLED in both. she was able to curl lips in proper smiles and took in the things her father thought her with big eyes.
[ sexism tw but her dad treated her as less, and her mother wanted to shove her in dresses that she hated. bellatrix followed their words with obedience, yes, but  also proved to be a challenge time after time again. on one hand, she vocally dismissed the girly role her mother tried to force on her, while on another, her father kept wishing he had a son, not realising that bellatrix was ready to do the things a son was supposed to do. there was a lot of sexism in her upbringing, tbh, a lot of forced femininity and restriction because of her being a girl.
she hated it, never really understood it. bellatrix could understand that this was how the world -- how her world -- spun, but she didn’t get why it did, and why it shouldn’t change. it took years for her to unlearn the internalised sexism, and to allow herself to feel the anger she felt in regards to the ways she was underestimated because of her gender. end of tw ]
grew up with her two younger sisters, whom she loved more than anything. growing up as the oldest gave bellatrix a certain sense of responsibility and protectiveness. i mean. she’d literally curse anyone tf out when she was little for them, as well as for her cousins probably? fight me emoji. would and will go to hell for her family.
was a good student at hogwarts. honestly, bellatrix is really, highly intelligent, and she knew how to apply herself. she didn’t particularly like school ( she hated most of the people there, to be honest ) but by sticking to the common room and putting in the needed time, she got good results. bellatrix was very controlled during hogwarts at most times, and while she wasn’t afraid to speak her purist thoughts & be an asshole, she did so in a calm & collected manner. was just a vocal bully tbh and didn’t do any physical/magical shit bc she just didnt care enough to risk getting in any shit over people she deemed below her.
was almost sorted into hufflepuff, btw. bellatrix has such a STRONG sense of loyalty that it’s dangerous, and the hat very much saw that and let her know. bellatrix was set on slytherin, though, determined to be sorted there, and that was what got her sorted there in the end. 
held a certain power at hogwarts, i imagine. bellatrix would cut a bitch with words over the tiniest thing, made sure that everyone knew -- especially those that mattered -- that she was not to be messed with; she was a black, after all, and the oldest one. her power there and her lack of power at home was frustrating to say the least; at hogwarts, she was in control, at home she was just another pawn.
i imagine that talks of marriage started during her years at hogwarts, too. bellatrix exploded when she heard about it but knew to push her lips in a thin line and keep quiet after that outburst; her parents weren’t going to listen anyway. she did learn that she was a lot MORE than her parents bargained for, though, that she had a fire and a power that they didn’t want in a daughter --- she was supposed to be proper and prim and ice cold. in stead, she was fiery hot.
could’ve started a hell of a career after graduation but she didn’t. not because her mother would disapprove, but because bellatrix was set on joining the death eaters. in the years prior to her joining, she idealised the cause; she wanted to fight, knew she had it in her to really make a change. she never really questioned the purist beliefs she grew up believing, because she saw no reason to. why question something that gave you more power? 
her father supported her decision to join, whereas her mother did not. bellatrix didn’t do it for them, though --- that step was HERS, and hers only. a shitty step, to be fair, but one that was made by her alone.
andromeda getting it on with ted fucking tonks was ... shit. bellatrix is very much a black and white thinker, and she was unable to look at that situation from a different angle than her own. to her, it was nothing but betrayal over a boy --- she knew that their family was toxic and bad, but she didn’t think she was, nor narcissa; to risk losing them over love? it was incomprehensible. the idea that losing andromeda is on her is something she won’t even consider; that’s stupid, in her head.
she lost her sister, and not to death or something like that --- she lost her because andromeda LEFT. it really shook bellatrix, and only made her want to have more control, more power, more everything, just so she could make sure that it wouldn’t happen again. it just. turned into an even more shit person tbh yikes.
bellatrix has been a death eater for about a decade now and she’s climbed a LOT of ranks. one reason as to why she’s successful is because bellatrix is clever; it’s not her dedication or skills, per se, but it’s her set of brains that has gotten her this far. she’s strategic and thinks about her actions, doesn’t do impulsiveness ( and thinks it stupid ). honestly she’s Much More capable than she is in the books, because while she’s been growing more and more unstable, she still has much more mental stability & so THINKS more.
also incredibly loyal, dangerously so. will do anything for the cause, for voldemort --- i’m not going with the bs that jkr wrote that she was in love with him, because? i dont vibe with that. also yikes. but there’s definitely an obsession there, a wish to impress, a ... need to impress, even. it’s desperate.
likes to present herself as this ... enigma of a woman, mysterious and dark and charming. works hard to keep up a public image as a socialite --- holds events, fundraisers, donates to st mungo’s and other good causes. she is not in the business of getting caught and being thrown in azkaban, and while i am sure there are a lot of suspicions around her -- as she’s not particularly keen on keeping her ... views quiet -- there’s no proof. she always wears a mask. leaves no traces. etc.
tidbits!
okay disclaimer time; i think bellatrix is a despicable human and that all made me a bit queasy. her motives are really warped and fucked, both because she has no morals whatsoever and because she’s such a black/white thinker. 
um i completely forgot to mention anything about rodolphus and her marriage to him but thats bc im going to leave it open for now bc !! who knows what she and him will get up to depending on the interpretation of any future players!!
loves purple and red
looks really on fleek most of the time, tbh. she takes care of herself. 
doesn’t like the nickname bella all too much, only narcissa gets to use it tbh ??? ?? ? probably
i imagine she hangs around the ministry a lot to just ,,, talk to politicians and keep up appearances and be all ~involved in the community and such.
plays the cello and loves it
she’s a fucking asshole i stg that’s all

it me ( carlie ) back at it again with this lil bean. pls throw all preconceived fanon notions of marlene mckinnon out temporarily, because this is soft!marlene , and she means everything 2 me. give this post a  like and i’ll approach you to plot !
MARLENE MCKINNON has joined the fight! the NINETEEN year old works as an ASSISTANT TO THE MINISTER OF MAGIC, but spends HER time fighting for THE ORDER. MARLENE is known to be BENEVOLENT & QUICK-WITTED, as well as INDECISIVE & SENTIMENTAL.
marlene was brought up in the wizarding village of montrose , scotland ( she’s a diehard montrose magpies fan and she’ll fight you about it ) with her family. the mckinnons were always a very tight-knit family , and definitely where her sense of loyalty and dedication to others originated.
she was a year above the marauders, so get that straight.
she was Surprisingly sorted into hufflepuff  ( a big shocker to the whole family , who had primarily been ravenclaws and gryffindors )
her extra curricular list was a mile long -- but her crowning achievement was becoming the captain of the hufflepuff quidditch team , where she played as a chaser.
she is the most loyal friend you’ll ever have , and the most concerned about your wellbeing.
she feels everything in extremes. she loves so much , and she has the capacity for so much anger -- though that’s mostly untapped.
the reality of the war was something she tried to actively Ignore , and it wasn’t until she got out of school that it really hit her , and she took it pretty hard. she really sprung into action at that point , feeling like she was absolutely useless. she joined up with the order right away ( much to the chagrin of her brother ).
she’s also really gifted in defensive magic ( she got it from her brother tbh ) as well as potions and charms. one of her jobs with the order is to help with the brewing of polyjuice and other essential potions.
she also used her dad & brother’s ministry connections to land a job as an assistant to the minister of magic ( a la percy weasley but a little less Awful about it ). she’s lowkey using this position as a means of obtaining information for the order. especially since she’s 100% convinced that the ministry is corrupt.
she’s a good strategist, but she’s historically bad at making difficult decisions.
she is a ray of light and she’s easily emotional -- very prone to getting her feelings hurt. she also has a temper and a secret potty mouth. but she’s really just passionate about everything.
pls love her !!
don’t underestimate her because she is s o f t !! she’s very self - aware and exceedingly capable.
