Actions
Personality: Andromeda is very rebellious, especially around Slytherins. She loves a good joke and adores her cousin Sirius for his pranks. Andy is normally quite outgoing, but sometimes becomes a bit overwhelmed with everything going on. A book is always with her as there really wasn’t much else to do at home. She devotes herself to her studies and usually pays attention in class. Andromeda has a knack for learning. She picks up everything from spells, hexes, languages, and how to pull off the ultimate pranks quite quickly. When she was younger, she was commonly praised for this ability. Andy was once a tomboy, but is slowly becoming more feminine. Andy has actually started to develop a bit of a crush on a certain Hufflepuff. Andromeda is at her best when she's with her friends. She clings dearly to the ones she loves, meaning her friends and Sirius. Her goal in life is to keep them safe at all costs and be able to help others. Rather strange desires for someone like her, but Andy really is a surprising person if you care to get to know her.
Hates: Bella, Cissa, Reggie, Mother, Father, Slytherins in general, getting tricked, Peeves, pointless rules (most rules), and being stereotyped
Loves: Sirius, Books, Animals, bugging Cissa and Bella at school, plants, learning new tricks or charms to do with her wand, and being away from home
Wants: Voldemort to die and all his followers be given the Dementor’s Kiss and for Ted Tonks to realize she exists. Also wants chocolate and a passing grade in all of her classes.
Wishes: To be Top Healer at St. Mungo’s, her family to realize that they are wrong about Muggles and Muggle-Born Magical Folk
Fears: Voldemort winning the war, Becoming a Death Eater, black water, rats, and natural disasters.

Most Important Part
History: Penelope and Sagittarius Black met at school under the influence of their families. I'd love to say it was true love, but that would be a lie. The truth is that the marriage was all about lineage and wealth. Throughout history, the Black family has been known for its hate of muggles and pure wizard line. Over time, the Black's and their descendants have made history, not always good. After Araminta Melliflua tried to pass that law on muggle-hunting, everything kind of went down the drain.

Immediately after their seventh year, Penelope and Sagittarius were married. They inherited a large mansion in a remote territory somewhere in England. They greatly despised the fact that Grimauld Place had been left to Sagittarius’ older brother as there was absolutely no way for anyone to disturb him there. Sagittarius settled for conjuring a large, dense forest around their estate.

After a few years of marriage, they decided that they would have children. The first child born was a girl named Bellatrix. Bella took after her father in both looks and behavior. She had jet black hair and the same grey eyes that always appeared at least once in every Black generation. After Bella came Andromeda, the perfect balance of her two sisters. She had Dark auburn, almost dark brown hair, and similar eyes to her sister, only a bit brighter and able to show emotion much easier. Andy however seemed to have received a rather odd personality that had appeared only once previously in her cousin, Sirius. Andromeda was declared a disgrace shortly after she entered Hogwarts. Lastly was Narcissa. Cissa was most certainly distinct from her siblings, being a little clone of her mother. Cissa had blonde hair and baby blue eyes. She was a ditzy little girl, often forgetting things in her endless giggling. On top of that, Cissa was always the weakest, cowering in fear of her thunder storms and sobbing over the smallest things.

Andy's childhood was filled with glimpses of strangers in her kitchen and black cloaks scattered through the bedrooms and closets. When she was very little, she'd asked Bellatrix what it all meant one day while they were all having dinner at Grimauld Place. Bella responded that if she was too dense to have already figured it out, then telling her would be a waste of breath. Narcissa just plain didn’t know. Maybe Narcissa’s care-free nature was why Andromeda had once called Cissa her “bestest sister ever”. When she was 6, she found out that her parents were part of a new muggle-hating movement. They had deep grudges against anything and everything muggle that Andromeda couldn’t understand. She ran to Sirius in hopes that he could help her understand it. Sirius didn't know much more than she and they just tried to keep on going, following their parents. When Andy was 10, the family was shaken by the unlikely sorting of her cousin into Gryffindor. Andromeda and her other cousin, Regulus, were placed into the wizarding world a bit early and taught to despise muggle and muggle-loving wizards as much as their parents. It was the elders hope that, through this, they could prevent either child from being sorted out of Slytherin.

Unfortunately, Andromeda was sorted into Gryffindor like her cousin. Her once best friend, Narcissa, no longer was around her as much. Her family treated her like an idiot, stopping discussions as she moved into the room and avoiding spending excessive amounts of time with her. Andy let Hogwarts become her new home, making new friends and forming a family-like group to replace the one she had lost. School was easy for her and she found herself with a lot of free time. A hobby of her’s became exploring the castle. Soon, she had most of the school’s map memorized and found maneuvering the halls simpler than many seventh years. Recently, her family has become even more secluded from her and she no longer cares. It is her hope that they will eventually give up on their still not understood grudge, but Andromeda knows that will never happen.

Future: Andy will graduate with 9 N.E.W.T.s and get a job as a healer in a small, private, magical hospital. During this time period she begins going out with muggleborn wizard, Theodore Tonks. A few years after, Ted proposes and they get married. Less than a year later, they have a little girl called Nymphadora Andromeda Tonks. (Who will eventually go by her surname only) Voldemort is steadily rising to power and healers are in greater demand for magical injuries caused be his followers. Andy interviews for a starting position at St. Mungo's hospital and is granted a position. Thousands of patients are coming in at a time, and the increased work load earns her a few promotions in the hospital. A few more years pass and Voldemort is believed to have been vanquished by...a little boy! This is enough shock for Andy, but there is more! Her beloved cousin turns out to be a murderer and a traitor. Andromeda is heart-broken, but continues to work in the hospital until her retirement. Sadly, she never becomes top healer.

Sample Post
Scenario: Andromeda’s Discovering that their Having a Dinner Party
Sample Post:
A young girl sat on an old mattress in the middle of the attic, hunched over a small book. Dark auburn hair fell across the girl’s face and over the book. She had a pen in her hand and was ferociously scribbling away at something. Suddenly, the door in the floor leading to the normal part of the house burst open as someone scurried up the ladder.

“Andromeda! Are you up here?” A boy’s head covered in uneven black hair appeared at the top of the opening, “’Cause your mum said you have to go downstairs and meet all the people from the Ministry. You need to make a good impression. You might want to change or something because you don’t look very pretty right now.”

It was true that Andromeda Black wasn’t looking exactly pretty. She’d been up in the attic for a while trying to get some privacy and was now thoroughly covered in dust and dirt. Andy sighed and glanced up from her book. “No, Regulus, I’m in my room,” her voice was dripping with sarcasm as she glared at her younger cousin. He always turned up at the wrong times. Reggie was the only one who knew she came up here. “What people from the Ministry? I thought it was just you and Sirius coming over tonight?”

“No, idiot! Your dad invited, like, half the ministry! Didn’t they tell you?” Regulus walked over to Andromeda and tried to see what she had been writing in her book.

“Aw, crap. No, they obviously didn’t tell me. Probably Bella’s fault.” She slammed the book shut and proceeded to follow her younger cousin down the ladder for an evening of pure boredom.

OoC: Ok. I'm sorry if the quiz was a bother. We'll just put her in Gryffindor then, shall we? And I do apologize about the bad age. At least I remembered to check the parents with Bella. I've never been good with remembering, figuring out things, etc. Apologies for the future as well. I couldn't really think of more for her personality. I've only role-played with her once before and my brain doesn't work that fast. I do realize how very off her age is, again. I’m sorry and I /will/ change that in any later roleplays, but since I’ve run into some *ahem* obstacles along the way it won’t be necessary to change yet.

[Juliana Vincent]

I haven't really read through your profile yet, but I think that she would be 16, not 14, because our current Narcissa is 15 (I think). And isn't Andy the middle child or something?

[Andromeda Black]

Indeed. Thank you, I hadn't looked into that. I just always assumed she was a year younger than the Marauders.

And now she is.

This is almost all about her parents history... not hers. Oh, and she's a year older than Sirius. Or so says HP-Lexicon. *shrugs* Who needs them, though? Who cares! ;D

Future: Andy will marry Theodore(Ted) Tonks, a muggle-born, and have one daughter called Nymphadora Andromeda Tonks who will go by her surname only. XD Andromeda will also become a healer in the war. Never to be top healer, but oh well. A little more, please.

Sample Post
Scenario: Andromeda’s Sorting
Sample Post:
A small girl with dark black hair hardly stood out among the crowd. Little Andromeda Black shifted uncomfortably in the crowd of first years. Glancing at the Slytherin table, she saw her elder sister, Bellatrix, giving her a smug smile. Her entire family was sure she would be put into Slytherin thanks to her wonderfully pure bloodline. Not a half-breed in it.

Daring a glance at the Gryffindor table, her favorite cousin, Sirius, gave her an encouraging smile. Andy gave a weak smile in return, and then turned to face the front. The sorting had begun.

It seemed like forever, as the names for A were all listed off by the professor holding the scroll at the front. Finally, she got a heads up sign.

“Black, Regulus.” The professor called. Odd, she thought. She should have been before her idiotic little cousin. Most likely, a bribe had been made by her aunt and uncle so that Reggie would seem more “important”. Idiots, she thought. Little Reggie was put in Slytherin as expected. Now it would be her.

“Black, Andromeda.”

Andy slowly worked her way up to the stool and took a seat. She dimly felt the hat placed on her head, she was so nervous. You know you can show her getting sorted, right? 'Cause she's canon.

~Sorting Quiz~ Again, you can 86 this because she's canon.

1. Let's get you familiar with this quiz. What is your favorite color out of these? (Choose 3-6)
-Silver
-Azure
-Bronze
-Emerald


2. Your about to ask out a crush, what do you do?
-Ok the logical choice would be to catch him/her off guard and to ask quickly!

3. You are caught Skinny Dipping with friends by most of the school (you forgot that today was the day for looking at the squid of COMC) What to do?
-Make thy self invisible!

4. Your mother just came to Hogwarts to talk to Dumbledore. Before leaving she gives you a big kiss on the cheek in front of your friends.
-Mother? *looks around suspiciously* Oh god no.


5. You are on the Platform and are about to run through the wall. What is going through your head?
-Just my mind playing tricks!


6. What did the Sorting Hat say about you? [5 sentences at least, mention no house names! Just express thy self! End it with a last sentence saying 'I'll sort you into.....']
“Another Black? Two in one year, aren’t I lucky? Well, I know exactly where to put you…but wait. Complicated mind you have here. Your bloodline does seem to call for a certain house. Your bravery and independent nature may contradict that, however. Then there’s your knack for learning. I have the means to stick you in almost any house, but I'll sort you into..."

[Ayanna Windlew]

I'm not sure about Andromeda being the middle child...All I know is that Bella is older than Narcissa. That's literally as good as my knowledge gets...DOH!

[Juliana Vincent]

I am, like, 99.9999% sure that Narcissa is the youngest, then Andromeda, then Bellatrix. I read it on the Black Sisters site.

OoC: Ok. I'm sorry if the quiz was a bother. We'll just put her in Ravenclaw then, shall we? And I do apologize about the bad age. At least I remembered to check the parents with Bella. I've never been good with remembering, figuring out things, etc. Apologies for the future as well. I couldn't really think of more for her personality. I've only roleplayed with her once before and my brain doesn't work that fast.

Just fix the stuff I said...And the other comments were for my entertainment...Heh heh...And I'm not sure about which house Andromeda was sorted into...Was she really sorted into Ravenclaw?

The look I see for Andromeda is a very neutral toned person. Not really the white skinned, black haired type. When you think of her you think of an almost mature, teen, reject. But she seems very earthy.

www.damm-it.net/andromeda.html This is one of my favorite Black Sister sites, it is really helpful and gives me the idea of Andromeda in the Look-A-Likes.

Andy is normally quite outgoing, but sometimes becomes a bit overwhelmed with everything going on. A book is always with her as there really wasn’t much else to do at home.

AHH!! Makes me want to make Saab her friend! She clings dearly to the ones she loves, meaning her friends and Sirius. Her goal in life is to keep them safe at all costs and be able to help others. This is really Gryffindor Rather strange desires for someone like her, but Andy really is a surprising person if you care to get to know her.
Hates: Bella, Cissa, Reggie, Mother, Father, Slytherins in general, Voldemort and his followers, and being stereotyped I wish this would go out of the ordinary circle. What else? Voldemort is not quite known at this time, it is a dark force that no one really sees comming until the Marauder's last year.
Loves: Sirius, Books, Animals, bugging Cissa and Bella at school, and being away from home
Wants: Voldemort to die and all his followers be given the Dementor’s Kiss A bit immature but funny. Add some other things. What about her crush? Wouldn't some one like her want her family's acceptance deep down inside.
Wishes: To be Top Healer at St. Mungo’s
Fears: Voldemort winning the war, Becoming a Death Eater There has to be more to this girl than current events. Try some more tangible fears. Maybe becoming like her mother? Or big barking dogs? Heights? She lacks alot of depth without fears.

Most Important Part
History: Penelope and Sagittarius Black met at school under the influence of their families. I'd love to say it was true love, but that would be a lie. The truth is that the marriage was all about lineage and wealth. Throughout history, the Black family has been known for its hate of muggles and pure wizard line. Over time, the Black's and their descendants have made history, not always good. After Araminta Melliflua tried to pass that law on muggle-hunting, everything kind of went down the drain.

Immediately after their seventh year, Penelope and Sagittarius were married. They purchased If the family were that old and legendary they would have inherited a large mansion in a remote territory somewhere in England. They greatly despised the fact that Grimauld Place had been left to Sagittarius’ older brother as there was absolutely no way for anyone to disturb him there. Sagittarius settled for conjuring a large, dense forest around their estate.

After a few years of marriage, they decided that they would have children. The first child born was a girl named Bellatrix. Bella took after her father in both looks and behavior. She had pitch black hair and the same grey eyes that always appeared at least once in every Black generation. After Bella came Narcissa. Cissa was most certainly distinct from her siblings, being a little clone of her mother. Cissa had blonde hair and baby blue eyes. She was a ditzy little girl, often forgetting things in her endless giggling. On top of that, Cissa was always the weakest, cowering in fear of her thunder storms and sobbing over the smallest things. Lastly was Andromeda, the exact look-alike of her older sister. Andy however seemed to have received a rather odd gene that had appeared only once previously in her cousin, Sirius. Andromeda was declared a disgrace shortly after she entered Hogwarts.

Andy's childhood was filled with glimpses of strangers in her kitchen and black cloaks scattered through the bedrooms and closets. When she was very little, she'd asked Bellatrix what it all meant one day while they were all having dinner at Grimmauld Place. Bella responded that if she was too dense to have already figured it out, then telling her would be a waste of breath. When she was 6, she found out that her parents were strong Voldemort supporters, At this time, Voldemort did not have any supporters besdies the 'Knights of the Walpurgis' then later on known as the Death Eaters. fear of his name or the name 'Death Eater' has not come into play. He hasn't reached his peak power, so to speak. trying to help him rise to power. She ran to Sirius in hopes that he could help her understand it. Sirius didn't know much more than she and they just tried to keep on going, following their parents. When Andy was 10, the family was shaken by the unlikely sorting of her cousin into Gryffindor. Andromeda and her other cousin, Regulus, were placed into the wizarding world a bit early and taught to despise muggle and muggle-loving wizards as much as their parents. It was the elders hope that, through this, they could prevent either child from being sorted out Slytherin.

I love the history concerning the family but I want to know about Andromeda. Andy had to have some life changing or not moments that made her who she is. what about her school life? what happened? Explain her relationship with her sisters now.

Future: Andy will graduate with 9 N.E.W.T.s and get a job as a healer in a small, private, magical hospital. During this time period she begins going out with muggleborn wizard, Theodore Tonks. A few years after, Ted proposes and they get married. Less than a year later, they have a little girl called Nymphadora Andromeda Tonks. (Who will eventually go by her surname only) Voldemort is steadily rising to power and healers are in greater demand for magical injuries caused be his followers. Andy interviews for a starting position at St. Mungo's hospital and is granted a position. Thousands of patients are coming in at a time, and the increased work load earns her a few promotions in the hospital. A few more years pass and Voldemort is believed to have been vanquished by...a little boy! This is enough shock for Andy, but there is more! Her beloved cousin turns out to be a murderer and a traitor. Andromeda is heart-broken, but continues to work in the hospital until her retirement. Sadly, she never becomes top healer.

Sample Post
Scenario: Andromeda’s Sorting
Sample Post:
A small girl with dark black hair hardly stood out among the crowd. Little Andromeda Black shifted uncomfortably in the crowd of first years. Glancing at the Slytherin table, she saw her elder sister, Bellatrix, giving her a smug smile. Her entire family was sure she would be put into Slytherin thanks to her wonderfully pure bloodline. Not a half-breed in it.

Daring a glance at the Gryffindor table, her favorite cousin, Sirius, gave her an encouraging smile. Andy gave a weak smile in return, and then turned to face the front. The sorting had begun.

It seemed like forever, as the names for A were all listed off by the professor holding the scroll at the front. Finally, she got a heads up sign.

“Black, Regulus.” The professor called. Odd, she thought. She should have been before her idiotic little cousin. Most likely, a bribe had been made by her aunt and uncle so that Reggie would seem more “important”. Idiots, she thought. Little Reggie was put in Slytherin as expected. Now it would be her.

“Black, Andromeda.”

Andy slowly worked her way up to the stool and took a seat. She dimly felt the hat placed on her head, she was so nervous.

“Another Black? Two in one year, aren’t I lucky? Well, I know exactly where to put you…but wait. Complicated mind you have here. Your bloodline does seem to call for a certain house. Your bravery and independent nature may contradict that, however. Then there’s your knack for learning. I have the means to stick you in almost any house, but I'll sort you into... RAVENCLAW!!"

OoC: Ok. I'm sorry if the quiz was a bother. We'll just put her in Ravenclaw then, shall we? And I do apologize about the bad age. At least I remembered to check the parents with Bella. I've never been good with remembering, figuring out things, etc. Apologies for the future as well. I couldn't really think of more for her personality. I've only roleplayed with her once before and my brain doesn't work that fast.

Her house? Hm...I don't see Andromeda in Ravenclaw. Hufflepuff is not a style. And Gryffindor would be too stereotype. Plus Slytherin isn't really in the ok zone.

[Juliana Vincent]

Does that mean she is going to be a Gryffindor?

[Ayanna Windlew]

GOOD QUESTION! I would picture her MOST as a Gryffindor, but I don't know...It's just weird. *shrugs* At least someone else has to make the decisions and not me! Otherwise it would NEVER happen!

[Juliana Vincent]

I would picture her a Gryffindor because she hated her Slytherin family so much.

[Ayanna Windlew]

Same here...But hey! Anything goes with magic! *giggles* Sorry...It was fun to say!

[Saab Darius]

Yeah I was thinking that too.

[Andromeda Black]

Ok, I tried to change as much as possible, but if you notice anything else /please/ tell me. It takes me awhile to really make a good profile and I'd like to make this one as good as possible. Thanks for the critique!

She loves a good joke and adores her cousin Sirius for his pranks. ^l^ Andy is normally quite outgoing, but sometimes becomes a bit overwhelmed with everything going on. A book is always with her as there really wasn’t much else to do at home. She devotes herself to her studies and usually pays attention in class. Andromeda has a knack for learning. She picks up everything from spells, hexes, languages, and how to pull off the ultimate pranks quite quickly. Thanks to James and Myself, I believe.... When she was younger, she was commonly praised for this ability. Andy was once a tomboy, but is slowly becoming more feminine. Andy has actually started to develop a bit of a crush on a certain Hufflepuff. Andromeda is at her best when she's with her friends. She clings dearly to the ones she loves, meaning her friends and Sirius. Again, ^l^ Her goal in life is to keep them safe at all costs and be able to help others.

After a few years of marriage, they decided that they would have children. The first child born was a girl named Bellatrix. Bella took after her father in both looks and behavior. She had pitchI beleive Jet black is what you want there. Pitch black is mor for like dark rooms or dark tunnels. Things like that. black hair and the same grey eyes that always appeared at least once in every Black generation. After Bella came Narcissa. Cissa was most certainly distinct from her siblings, being a little clone of her mother. Cissa had blonde hair and baby blue eyes. She was a ditzy little girl, often forgetting things in her endless giggling. On top of that, Cissa was always the weakest, cowering in fear of her thunder storms and sobbing over the smallest things. Lastly was Andromeda, the exact look-alike of her older sister. Andy however seemed to have received a rather odd gene that had appeared only once previously in her cousin, Sirius.I don't quite think it's a Gene, but Sirius and Andromeda just actually have a concience. (sp?) Andromeda was declared a disgrace shortly after she entered Hogwarts.

Andy's childhood was filled with glimpses of strangers in her kitchen and black cloaks scattered through the bedrooms and closets. When she was very little, she'd asked Bellatrix what it all meant one day while they were all having dinner at Grimauld Place. Bella responded that if she was too dense to have already figured it out, then telling her would be a waste of breath. Narcissa just plain didn’t know. Maybe Narcissa’s care-free nature was why Andromeda had once called Cissa her “bestest sister ever”. When she was 6, she found out that her parents were part of a new muggle-hating movement. They had deep grudges against anything and everything muggle that Andromeda couldn’t understand. She ran to Sirius in hopes that he could help her understand it. Sirius didn't know much more than she and they just tried to keep on going, following their parents. When Andy was 10, the family was shaken by the unlikely sorting of her cousin into Gryffindor.Muahahahahaha Andromeda and her other cousin, Regulus, were placed into the wizarding world a bit early and taught to despise muggle and muggle-loving wizards as much as their parents. It was the elders hope that, through this, they could prevent either child from being sorted out of Slytherin.

Unfortunately, Andromeda was sorted into Gryffindor like her cousin. Her once best friend, Narcissa, no longer was around her as much. Her family treated her like an idiot, stopping discussions as she moved into the room and avoiding spending excessive amounts of time with her. Andy let Hogwarts become her new home, making new friends and forming a family-like group to replace the one she had lost. School was easy for her and she found herself with a lot of free time. A hobby of her’s became exploring the castle. Soon, she had most of the school’s map memorized and found maneuvering the halls simpler than many seventh years. Recently, her family has become even more secluded from her and she no longer cares. It is her hope that they will eventually give up on their still not understood grudge, but Andromeda knows that will never happen.

Future: Andy will graduate with 9 N.E.W.T.s and get a job as a healer in a small, private, magical hospital. During this time period she begins going out with muggleborn wizard, Theodore Tonks. A few years after, Ted proposes and they get married. Less than a year later, they have a little girl called Nymphadora Andromeda Tonks. (Who will eventually go by her surname only) Quote: "What would you do if your Idiot of a mother named you 'Nymphadora?'" Nice Goin there, Andy... Voldemort is steadily rising to power and healers are in greater demand for magical injuries caused be his followers. Andy interviews for a starting position at St. Mungo's hospital and is granted a position. Thousands of patients are coming in at a time, and the increased work load earns her a few promotions in the hospital.

I’m sorry and I /will/ change that in any later roleplays, but since I’ve run into some *ahem* obstacles along the way it won’t be necessary to change yet.

Very Good, I like it. You Mention Me alot. I hope to see you RPing alot. Just fix those minor things I think.
