Were you formely a Hogwarts Student, please state or name other institution. Hogwarts - Slytherin
Wand: 12¾" walnut wood, with a dragon heartstring core
Blood Status: Pureblood
Character Appearance:
Describe Your Character: Bellatrix is described as a tall woman with long, thick, shining black hair. She has thin lips, dark, heavy-lidded eyes, and a strong jaw. She has the classic 'great good looks' and arrogant bearing common for members of the House of Black, but like her cousin Sirius, time in Azkaban took a toll on her appearance. After her lengthy imprisonment, she is described as having a gaunt and skull-like face, but manages to retain some vestige of her great beauty. Bellatrix is noted to physically resemble her sister Andromeda, as Harry mistook Andromeda for Bellatrix on one occasion. Also, Harry noted that as much as Narcissa is fair as Bellatrix is dark, the two sisters still resembled each other
Celeb Claim/Playby: (Make sure you post this in the Celeb Claim thread or you won't get to keep it!) Helena Bohem Carter
Relationship Status: (Single, Promising, Involved, Complicated, Engaged, Divorced, Widowed, Married???) Married
Occupation: Devoted Death Eater
Personality: (at least a paragraph) Bellatrix is little more than a complete psychopath and was just as merciless and sadistic as Lord Voldemort himself. She is an intensely sadistic witch, who, at certain points, seemed mentally unbalanced; for instance, she once killed a fox because she was paranoid it might have been an Auror. Bellatrix is intelligent, but could be easily distracted, and has a fierce and dangerous temper, a trait that she shared with her cousin Sirius and her aunt Walburga.
She is highly devoted to Voldemort, believing that she proved her loyalty by her time in Azkaban, which seems to have furthered her mental decline. She is one of Voldemort's most trusted and loyal followers, as well as one of his cruellest Death Eaters, always eager to inflict the Cruciatus Curse on enemies; Albus Dumbledore once noted that she likes "to play with her food before she eats it." Harry Potter noted that Bellatrix was as "mad as her master." Bellatrix is a steadfast believer in the supremacy of blood purity, as was taught to her by her family, and seemed particularly eager to kill her own relatives if they violated this ideology. Bellatrix, is a very reckless person, to have the desire to kill someone without caring. She even offered herself to the dark lord to kill Harry Potter herself, showing how compassionate she was to Voldemort and that she would be ever more than happy to do so, but of course he denied.
Aside from all "blood traitors," half-bloods, Muggle-borns, and Muggles, Bellatrix also treated people below her as scum. Born in the aristocratic House of Black, Bellatrix was heavily spoiled into thinking being born a Black means not only to cherish her blood purity to the fullest, but it also made her practically royalty. In one of her deranged tantrums, Bellatrix was screaming at her youngest sister and nephew, despite usually getting along well with them.
Despite her sadistic personality, Bellatrix was not incapable of feeling affection for others and appeared to care about her younger sister Narcissa, following her to Severus Snape's house, when Narcissa went to beg Snape to help her son. She was also in deeply in love with her master, Lord Voldemort, though he, being incapable of love, did not return her feelings. However, she was quick to turn on family members who were considered "blood traitors", such as her sister Andromeda, and her cousin Sirius. She even duelled and ultimately killed both Sirius and Nymphadora, her niece.
Bellatrix was incredibly arrogant and very confident in her deadly abilities but this often caused her to underestimate her opponents.
Patronus: (Disabled for Children & Special Races) Giant Spider
Boggart: (Biggest fear) The Dark Lords corpse or her mother telling her that she's not a pure-blood.
Erised: (Biggest desire) Being the Dark Lords faviourte
Amortentia: (Smells that attract you; at least 3) blood, fear, sickly sweet scents
Veritaserum: (Biggest secret(s)) She would rather be married the Dark Lord than her husband
Family Members: (Names and relationship to character) Rodolphus Lestrange (husband), Narcissa Malfoy (sister), Andromeda Tonks (sister), Draco Malfoy (nephew), Nymphadora Tonks (neice), Sirius Black (cousin), Regulas Black (cousin).
Character History: At least 3-5 Paragraphs, a paragraph is 3-5 sentences) Bellatrix took the pure-blood values of her family very seriously, as indicated by her marriage into a known pure-blood wizarding family and her zealous belief in Death Eater ideology. She seems to have had a fairly close and affectionate relationship with her younger sister Narcissa, whom she called "Cissy." Despite distrusting Severus Snape and attempting to dissuade her sister from approaching him, Bellatrix accompanied Narcissa to Spinner's End to request Snape's help in seeing Draco through the task assigned to him by Lord Voldemort in 1996. After Snape agreed to make the Unbreakable Vow, Bellatrix acted as Bonder, ensuring that Snape would fulfil his promises to Narcissa. Narcissa and Bellatrix occasionally clashed over the former's protectiveness towards her son; Bellatrix argued that Narcissa should be proud that her son was a Death Eater, while Narcissa consistently demonstrated that the safety of her son and husband were her first priorities. Still, the two seemed close, and, at some point, Bellatrix trained Draco in Occlumency to aid him in his mission.
On the other hand, Bellatrix hates her "blood traitor" relatives. After her sister Andromeda married a muggle-born and was disowned, Bellatrix never saw her again. She shared a mutual loathing with her "dear cousin" Sirius Black, and the two taunted each other as they duelled during the Battle of the Department of Mysteries. After killing Sirius, Bellatrix jeered at Harry about the death of his godfather on multiple occasions. Bellatrix also eagerly attacked her niece, Nymphadora Tonks, on at least three occasions — this was likely for a combination of reasons, including Tonks' being a half-blood, an Auror, and member of the Order of the Phoenix.
It is possible that Bellatrix was on good terms with her other cousin, Regulus, who was a Death Eater during the First Wizarding War. Regulus initially espoused the pure-blood supremacist line associated with his family, and like Bellatrix, was sorted into the Slytherin house during his time at Hogwarts. It unlikely that he revealed his change of heart to Bellatrix, or anyone else, prior to his death in 1979.
What you are looking for in the future with this charrie: She wants to continue being a loyal Death Eater to the Dark Lord and cause as much pain as possible to please her master.
