Backstory

It was no surprise when I received my letter to Hogwarts, after all, my family are all purebloods. I was sorted into Slytherin because of my ambition and cunning nature. It took what seemed like a great deal of time for the hat to decide upon my house (it was going to put me in Gryffindor!) but I think it made the right choice. My favourite class would have to be Potions with Professor Snape but I also enjoy Defence Against the Dark Arts. I don't like Care of Magical Creatures, though. I did quite well in Transfiguration but it was rather dull. I'm a Pure-Blood and mostly proud. My blood status affected the house that I was sorted into, I think, because who would put a filthy mudblood in Slytherin? When Voldermort (I refuse to call him You-Know-Who - it is cowardly!) rose to power, I wasn't that scared. I was on the side with the Death Eaters but that doesn't mean that I agreed with everything they did. My greatest strength is my determination and my great power. My greatest weakness is love. After I finish school, I hope to work with the Ministry and maybe be an Auror. I find the Dark Arts quite fascinating but cannot see myself ever using any of the three unforgivable curses. I think magic should be used both to help others and to fulfil ones own needs. I want to find myself and be able to do what I want without anybody getting in the way of that. I have a clever pet snake called Axelia. My father is none other than Lord Voldemort himself. This is the main reason I sided with the Death Eaters. I don't disagree with him but I also do not agree with him.
