"You don't know what I'm capable of, you don't know what I've done!"



GENERAL APPEARANCE: Laura has long brown hair with dark brown eyes like her mother. Her hair isn't wild like her mother's. She has the same icy cruel gaze that frightens other people. Sometimes she likes to dye the tips of her hair a random new color every week because she's bored. However, other weeks it will stay brown if she's too lazy to do it.

Laura likes the color black a lot. When she's not wearing the Slytherin uniform, she wears black clothing. She's also painted her nails black. Her body type is quite slender and she's 4'3.

MOST LIKED FEATURE: hair and eyes
MOST HATED FEATURE: Same with her mother. She doesn't like her height because she would also rather tower over people she feels superior to.
HERITAGE: British
ETHNICITY: Caucasian


"The mind is not a book, to be opened at will and examined at leisure."



GENERAL PERSONALITY: Laura is very cruel-hearted just like her mother. She's rarely nice to anyone except for her younger brother Mark and her friends. However, sometimes she'll be mean to him if he starts to annoy her. Laura has an extreme intolerance for first years. She has no problem bullying first years from other houses but she's careful about how often she bullies Mark. Laura is also quite sarcastic and snarky.

She's lazy in subjects she doesn't care about but works hard in the ones she does. For example, her grades in Muggle Studies are poor because she thinks muggles and muggleborns are filth. Howver, in Potions she sucks up to Snape (but what Slytherin doesn't?) and tries to get the best grades which is easy because Snape has been known to favor the Slytherins over the other houses. Sometimes she'll even be disrespectful and talk back if there's something she doesn't agree with. She does it quite a lot in Muggle Studies and doesn't care how many detentions she'll get for her rudeness.

As for the nicer side she shows her brother, She'll offer to help him with first year homework since she learned the stuff already. Laura is also very overprotective of her little brother. She doesn't allow anyone else to mess with him or treat him badly. She always tells him that if he has a problem with someone to send them to her and she'll straighten them out. Laura will even bond with him in her free time. She's also now taking it upon herself to teach him about blood purity so he can make their parents, aunt and a uncle proud when he's older.

"I enjoyed the meetings, too. It was like having friends."



GENERAL HISTORY: Laura was born to Bellatrix and Rodolphus Lestrange on May 3rd. She was a bit of a free spirit as a child, doing as she pleases because her brother seemed to have more important things to do than look after his siblings. Also, her mother abandonded her family to search for the Dark Lord. It's not that Laura doesn't agree with Voldemort's views, she does. She merely felt abandonded. Over the years, her anger at her mother is slowly dissipating because she's doing the work she's always dreamed of doing--serving the dark lord and purging the world of mudbloods and other scum.

Since her older brother was hardly around and it seemed neither were her parents, the task of taking care of Mark fell to her--the second oldest sibling. Although she wasn't Fabien's age, she felt like she had to take care of Mark when he was born. Her mother was too depressed about Voldemort's fall from power to be of any help. She wanted to make sure he didn't end up with bitter feelings about the situation like she did.

When she was a kid she used to always bully Mark, just because she was the second oldest and she enjoyed bullying people. However, her attitude towards him started to change when her family suddenly became poor and they were sent to the Malfoys. She bullied him less and acted more like a caring sister. However, that hasn't stopped her from bullying first years that aren't Mark.

During Laura's stays at the Malfoy manor she eventually gained the views she currently has about muggleborns. Her father Rodolphous taught her a little about the pureblood vs. muggle spectrum. However, it was her aunt Narcissa and her husband Lucius who really instilled the teachings of blood purity in her. Narcissa thought it's what Bellatrix would've wanted her to learn since she wasn't around to teach Laura herself.


Now Laura (who prefers being called Layla) is in her fourth year at Hogwarts and she's still as vicious to people as ever. She aspires to become a death eater like her mother but worries she isn't worthy enough. However, this is something she'd never admit willingly unless she was forced to or felt like sharing her feelings. She worries that because Voldemort's most trusted death eater has been been an absence in her life, that she'll never learn everything she needs to know to become a great death eater like her. She especially wants to learn the abilities her mother has.

Rabastan Lestrange {uncle}

"Make way for the heir of Slytherin, seriously evil wizard coming through..."



ROLEPLAY SAMPLE: (I'm writing her as a third year here which I think is when Muggle Studies is a mandatory class)

Laura walked into the Slytherin common room after Potions class. She was in a bit of a bad mood because she had Muggle Studies class after lunch. She hated Professor Burbage so much. She thought the class was a ridiculous waste of time so she always sat in the back hoping she could get away with sleeping, doodling, and basically not paying attention.

She didn't know why Hogwarts had such a dumb class, anyway. It's not like she was ever going to use what was taught in real life. She thought muggles and mudbloods were the biggest scum to ever walk the Earth. There should be a law against purebloods and muggleborns procreating. There should even be a law against muggleborns in the school. If there were, there would be less people like Granger and more people like her and the Malfoys. She sighed deeply as she took a seat on the couch and started on her Potions homework to calm her nerves.

Maybe if she sat here long enough she'd miss the class that should've never been. Several times this term she'd considered skipping the class. She knew she'd get in trouble with the Professor (not that she cared) and maybe have points docked from Slytherin or get a detention. The only consequence she cared about was having points taken away from Slytherin. So what if she got detention? It's not like her parents or brother would care since they seem too busy to even notice she's alive.


"Reading between the lines, I’d say she thinks you’re a bit conceited, mate."

please insert corrections that need to be made
good luck!
To Improve:

• Your paragraph sections are a bit short - try going into more detail when it comes to these, especially on her personality and history.
  

Admin Note: Your writing is very good and you're on the right track with this character, we just need to see a bit more of her. Give us a few more aspects of her personality - maybe a nicer side with which she treats her younger brother as opposed to how she treats the other first years. Also, maybe give us some insight as to how she grew to have the same views about muggles that her mother carried - it's just assumed at this point but I'd like to see exactly how she came to think that way, since it's not a natural attitude to have. What did Bellatrix or the rest of her family teach her to think? All in all just go into a little more detail with these parts of the application. What you've got so far is great - we just want to see more!

I fixed it. I would've punched up the appearance a little but I couldn't think of anything else to add. I think I've covered all my bases in the corrections.
