SIRIUS BLACK SEEKS ONCE-UPON-A-TIME BETHROTHED
suggested play-by: Jang Hae Byeol
Bethanne Bulstrode, bi-racial** pureblood, is fifteen years old, quick-witted, well-mannered, and well-educated. No surprise that when the time came to start Hogwarts she was sorted into Ravenclaw. Her family is well known amongst the pureblood elite, although they have never been the wealthiest nor the most prominent of families. Their peak was almost a decade ago with a rather lucky investment by the head of the Bulstrode family. With promises of more successful business adventures, the Bulstrodes captured the attention of the Black family, in particular Walburga Black. Although it was not uncommon for the Blacks to marry cousins, she was apprehensive in permitting her son and Black heir, Sirius Black, marrying any of the daughters from her brother’s Cygnus’ marriage to Druella (nee Rosier) Black. They had failed to have a son, and Walburga is sure that the fault was hidden in the blood of that French witch.
With a very prestigious name at stake, Walburga formed an agreement with the Bulstrodes. Their children would be playmates, and hopefully friends, and if they happened to get along when older and neither had other prospects, they would be pushed towards the idea of marriage; now whether that push is forceful or not, specifics were never discussed. The agreement seems to have fallen through with what seems the descent of Sirius Black. Walburga has fought off rumors about her son and insists that the Black family still has an heir, thank you very much.
The Bulstrodes have not been foreign to misfortune either. Bad judgment has been their downfall and resulted in bankruptcy. They are making ends meet by secretly selling personal possessions, family heirlooms, and antiques. This has been kept a secret from anyone outside of the Bulstrode family and now, more than ever, they are pushing the matter of Bethanne and Sirius possible engagement. The fate of the family is in Bethanne’s hand and she would do almost anything to save it.
Things would be easier if she actually liked the one Sirius Black. There is nothing to like about him; not his stupid floppy hair, or his stupid contrasting eyes. Not that stupid ‘I’m-so-satisfied-with-myself’ smirk nor that stupid recklessness. He was clever, sure, compared to a five year old but at least he could keep up with her scathing remarks three out of six times. He was tall, sure, but so were buildings and lamp posts. He was good looking and charming, sure, but so was she. It was a hassle having to pretend she held any genuine interest in him but he was a means to an end, and maybe, just maybe, they could both come to an agreement they both were happy with.
Bethanne is a lady through and through. You won’t find any uncouth behavior from her part.
She thinks her greatest charm is her intelligence but knows when to showcase it and when to town it down; depending on the company she’s keeping
Although she finds Sirius Black to be handsome, she thinks he’s lacking substance
Quick to judge, she usually has false impressions of those she first meets
Her favorite sport is antagonizing Sirius Black--or it used to be before her little family secret appeared.
Confident, Bethanne thinks very highly of herself and criticizes her peers in running internal monologues.
Scathing remarks, sarcasm, and being able to insult and praise you with a smile are part of Bethanne's weaponry against what Sirius Black calls his 'charms'
Call her Miss Sassy, she's a spitfire when she needs to be and doesn't hesitate putting people in their place, especially the misbehaving and sometimes sexually forward male species.
NOTE: **A note on Bethanne's biracial characteristic. I noticed I wasn't specific but she's half-asian. Her Mother is Asian and Bethanne DOES have Asian characteristics. Now, I'm not saying you have to use the suggested playby (the word 'suggested' alone makes it obvious) and I'm not saying you need to pick a play-by that is clearly Asian, but there has to be Asian characteristics of some sort--everything else up to you.
