Name: Pandora Black
Age: 11

Description

Pandora has fair skin, shoulder-length light brown hair parted in the middle, grey eyes, and a rather toothy smile. She's a little tall for her age but decidedly skinny, almost as if a growth spurt caused her to be stretched out.

Background

Pandora is the great-granddaughter of Marius Black, who was born a Squib and therefore disowned by the Black family. Although technically half-blood, her family might as well have been muggle-born for all the magical talent they showed, though at least they still had connections with the wizarding world. As the first witch born in the family for generations, she's got almost as much pride and arrogance as a pure-blood.

Despite her dark streak, she despises dark wizards: her family disowned her great-grandfather, after all. She feels a bit of schadenfreude that the pure-blood Black family has died out (though Pandora would refer to 'epicaricacy' rather than 'schadenfreude': she's fond of using obscure words as she thinks that makes her seem smarter). Yet, at the same time, she's proud of her family name, and wants to restore it to greatness and power.

She likes to do everything with grace and style. But pride goes before a fall: Pandora takes herself too seriously, and feels she's more important than she really is.
