Characters: N/A
Character Information
Name: Bellatrix Lestrange
Journal Name: bestlieutenant
Fandom / Series: Harry Potter
From When: Order of the Phoenix, film canon
Function: I see Bellatrix as the elite soldier type. While she is capable of command, it's generally only to reiterate the orders of a leader she trusts and follows implicitly. As a player, I'm flexible and am open to discussion if the mods have something they'd like to see from Bella.
Preferred Side: Believe it or not, I have no preference as to which side Bellatrix is placed on. Though I would prefer if she could be placed with Lucius Malfoy. Both sides have viable RP opportunities for Bella.
Abilities / Powers: Entries on magic and wizards. There's also a list of Bella's proficiencies detailed on her wikipedia entry. Consent is awesome and always respected!
Personality: At her base, Bellatrix Lestrange is a sociopath; she delights in the pain of others, whether it furthers her ends or not. Cruel and narcissistic, she places importance on blood purity, and is fanatically devoted to her Dark Lord. While being exceptionally cunning, Bellatrix is also prone to fits of unbridled anger - a trait she shares with her cousin, Sirius Black.
Bellatrix comes from the House of Black, a pureblood lineage. She has no tolerance for those who would muddy their lines by marrying into half-blood families, or worse, Muggles. Even Muggle sympathisers have been summarily blasted off the face of the Black Family Tree and consequently disowned. When Bellatrix's own sister, Andromeda, married Muggle-born Ted Tonks, she cut off all contact with her, and wanted nothing to do with her mudblood child Nymphadora. Blood may be thicker than water, but pride and purity are valued above blood in Bellatrix's eyes.
That said, Bellatrix is not incapable of love or affection. There are simply very few that have secured it. Most notably, Lord Voldemort has Bella's unwavering devotion. Though she married Rodolphus Lestrange, it was merely a contract to satisfy the requirements of a keeping both their bloodlines pure. Her true love has been and remains Lord Voldemort. Her youngest sister, Narcissa, and her son Draco also have some shred of Bellatrix's love, however twisted it may present itself.
Amongst the wizarding world, Bellatrix's name is one that is feared, be it among those who oppose the Dark Lord, or even those who serve under him. She's deranged and fierce, stopping at nothing to serve her Dark Lord, and preserve or further her standing with him. Her bloodlust is well documented, though she takes a sadistic glee at times in leaving her victims alive, such as Alice and Frank Longbottom, whom she tortured into insanity. She believes her loyalty was proven by her incarceration at Azkaban Prison, while others she served with claimed to be charmed or coerced into doing the Dark Lord's bidding.
Being presented with the scenario all newcomers are faced with when joining the Gray War, Bellatrix will believe her choice is simple. To return home, to her mission, and to her Lord, she must win the war.
Whatever the cost.
History: Located here, from "Early Life" to the conclusion of the "Battle of the Department of Mysteries". I imagine she went from her escape from the Ministry of Magic through the Floo Network, to somehow arriving in Zone 15.
Sample Journal Entry: I am new to this character, so I don't have much in the way of entries to work with. I do have one on Dear Mun that I'm fond of, however. Please let me know if you'd like another reference and I can see about whipping up a sample entry.
Sample RP: I have a sample entry here. Again, if you require something more, please let me know.
