Boy Are You Funny Looking
Appearance:
Bellatrix has shoulder length, thick, shiny black hair that is normally in unmanageable curls. She would like to have longer hair, but as soon as it gets too long, it becomes even more wild and ridiculous, so she cuts it short to avoid the hassle. She has tried to tame her hair before but after breaking two hair brushes and her mother’s favorite comb, she decided that her hair seems to have a mind of it’s own.Trix has dark colored eyes; very brown, like hardwood flooring. She has hooded eyes--which normally accompany age--but in her case a tiny fold of skin covers her socket line, giving her a much older look. She has long, dark eyelashes, probably the only feature of her face that gives her any type of feminine appeal. Bellatrix’s nose is slightly turned up and button-shaped, like a small child’s nose might be. She has high set cheekbones, characteristic of the Black Family tree and she tends to accent her cheekbones by choosing blush that might be a little too dark for her skin-tone. She has a strong, almost masculine, jawline, giving her an air of power. Bella is tall, reaching around 5’9”, and semi-muscular around her arms. She carries her body with a very erect posture, always trying to appear superior to everyone else. It is only around her very close friends and family that she lets her posture down a little and often slumps.
Height: 5' 9"
Clothing:
When not in her Hogwarts Uniform--which she loves dearly--Bellatrix can mostly be found wearing her favorite pair of denim jeans, converse sneakers, and a black, tight-fitted blouse. She loves things with buckles, and thus has an enormous love of belts. She has at least 25 belts that she rotates around. She hates dresses and only owns one, however, people say that she looks very beautiful when she wears it.
Everybody Has Personality Flaws
Personality:[/size]
Bellatrix is highly intelligent, but can be easily distracted, and has a fierce and dangerous temper. Once she becomes involved with something, be it school work, Quidditch, or other people’s business, she is slavishly devoted to finding a solution to the problem. She cares deeply about her appearance and can be seen as extremely narcissistic and vain. She loves when other people look at her...as long as they don’t look at her for too long. She can also be seen as increasing arrogant as time goes on; she loves boasting about her accomplishments to anyone who will listen. She takes immense pride in the fact that she is a Pure-Blood and still believes in the aristocracy of blood purity. She hates all those who are “blood-traitors,” be them half-bloods, muggle-borns, or even muggles themselves.
She is a natural born leader and not afraid to take charge in a situation, even if it’s a sticky or dangerous one, if no one else seems to be making an effort. Bellatrix is also very decisive and knows exactly what she wants and how she is going to get it. She’s not afraid to put herself out there for others to judge because, quite frankly, she cares very little about everyone else’s opinions. She is often ruthless and unrelenting when it comes to getting what she wants.
Beneath all this hard and dangerous exterior, Bellatrix is not all bad. She has caring feelings that run too deep for people to see. She cares deeply for her younger sister Narcissa and is capable of deeper affection, however, she believes that you have to earn this affection.
Grew Up:
On January 12th, Bellatrix was born to Cygnus and Druella Black, a family who raised her to prize her pure-blood heritage and never settle for anything less. She grew up never wanting for anything because her family had such a lavish lifestyle. They were basking in the Old Money of the Black Family Tree and Bellatrix always got the best of the best. She was the eldest sister of the Black Family, following closely in front of her two sister, Narcissa and Andromeda. Growing up, she spent much of her free time reading the books that had accumulated around the Black Household. She loved learning about the Wizarding world and her favorite books were those that mentioned the Hogwarts Founders. She made her mother tell her that story all the time.
From a very young age, her hatred of all things Muggle related was instilled in her by her parents and other family members. She believes fiercely in blood superiority. So when she received her Hogwarts letter at age 11, she was already well aware of which house she wanted to be placed in. Slytherin. She felt like she had been bred for that House and would do it proud. And, of course, that's exactly where she landed herself. Slytherin. The next few years at Hogwarts were the best of her life. She excelled in her classes and at the beginning of her Fifth Year, she became a Prefect. She had done everything in her power to make sure that she was successful.

Phobias:
Bellatrix is afraid of being rendered powerless in her life. She doesn't want to ever be without power.
Turn On's:
Bellatrix is turned on by both pain and power. She loves the idea that someone can be so manipulative and powerful that they can get whatever they want, she's also in love with causing people any bit of pain, whether it's intentional or not.
Turn Off's:
Weakness and Gryffindors. The two are one in the same to Trix. She hates all things Red and Gold and weakness seems to go hand in hand with that. She also hates the Marauder's. They're a waste of time in her eyes.

Sample Post
Bellatrix peered out of one of the windows in the corridor and immediately drew back when the sun hit her face. Sun...again? She thought to herself. She hated the sun. Absolutely loathed it. Her fair skin always got her into trouble when it was cloudless out like it was today; she would end up with a blistering third degree burn on her face and that? That was just not going to happen. Bellatrix pressed her back up against the wall next to the window and thought for a moment.
Going outside to finish her Runes work was out of the question now that she had discovered the sun was out to get her. She could perhaps go back to the Slytherin Common room...but she somehow doubted she would get anything done there with all the hustle and bustle of people running in and out. The library was out too; Bellatrix had just come from there and she was pretty sure that she had had enough of that musty smelling room for one day, “Study Area it is, then.” She said to herself and walked in the general direction of the fourth floor.
When she arrived at the large open area of the room, her eyes scanned the room, identifying faces of all those she rather disliked. It was like she was making mental tally-marks, 3 Mudbloods and a couple of Half-bloods...Disgusting. She avodided all eye contact as she quickly took a seat near the edge where she thought that no one would bother her. Not many of the table were taken and she assumed it was because of the nice weather; everyone was probably outdoors tinkering with the Quidditch equipment up on the pitch.
She reached into her bag and fished out her favorite quill, her 10” parchment, and her Runes book. She opened to the first page and stared at the font on the page. Gibberish. It looked like jibberish to her. She should have paid more attention in class.
