From beyond the shroud, SIRIUS BLACK of HARRY POTTER has arrived in Ithaca. Has anyone ever told you that you look quite a bit like ROB RACO except with a MARAUDER’S MAP WITH THE NAME PADFOOT ETCHED UPON IT, A JET-BLACK DOG WITH IT’S PAW PRINT PRESSED AGAINST A PRISON BAR, LONG BLACK HAIR EYE COLOR GREY AS THE MOON, & THE HOUSE OF GRYFFINDOR SYMBOL DOUSED IN BLACK vibe ? According to our records, you are 23 and identify as CISMALE with HE&HIM used to address you. You’ll find you’ve already been given a place to stay, so long as you’re working hard as a BARTENDER/CRIMINAL. And, what’s that, you DO remember BEING IMPRISONED IN AZKABAN? (sessho, 18+, she/her)

:: // RELATIONSHIPS
their parents: orion and walburga black. sirius never had a good relationship with his parents, especially his mother, let alone his family lineage. his family, the house of black, were pure-bloods. elitists, who believed that, in order to keep their family line “pure” insisted that their family members must breed within their own pure-blood classes. because of these beliefs, they were forced to marry their own cousins. sirius rejected these beliefs, and defied tradition when he was the first black sorted into the gryffindor house. sirius is the black sheep of the family.
their siblings: regulus black. sirius didn’t share a close relationship with his younger brother, either. though he’d believed him to be “a better son” than himself. after he’d died, sirius became the last remaining heir to the house of black.
their significant other : n/a
any children?: n/a
any wanted connections? the last marauder, family members, friends, enemies, & maybe some bar regulars & prison mates. the last marauder, PETER PETTIGREW since we already have three marauders. family members like his brother, REGULUS BLACK, but also cousins and in-laws and such to the black family like, BELLATRIX LESTRANGE, NARCISSA MALFOY, LUCIUS MALFOY, NYMPHADORA TONKS, and ANDROMEDA TONKS, people he would know. his godson HARRY POTTER, please bring us harry, he’d be pure with him *cries*. harry’s friends, HERMIONE GRANGER and RON WEASLEY, and the rest of the weasley family. LILY EVANS/POTTER, depending on how the mun would want to play her, and ANY fandom characters outside of his fandom, who we could plot and become friends with sirius. LOKI LAUFEYSON might like sirius too! although sirius’ closest friends/family are the marauders. i’d also love for sirius to meet SAM and DEAN WINCHESTER from SUPERNATURAL, since rob was literally in the show once. or other SPN fandom characters, like CASTIEL, JACK, maybe CROWLEY? enemies, SEVERUS SNAPE, but i also have this interesting idea for enemies: if the founders of the hogwarts houses are playable, then sirius meeting SALAZAR SLYTHERIN i’d love to plot and would be super interesting! since his entire family are slytherins, but sirius is a gryffindor. also, want some OC ideas? then how about some OC DEATH EATERS? maybe some who recognize sirius from his brother, or not. some regulars who show up at the speakeasy sirius works at ( oc or fandom ), and maybe some OC PRISON MATES, wizards he met/heard about him in prison.
:: // IN DEPTH
current canon: sirius is canon up to his first year in azkaban prison. book-wise, i dunno, because i haven’t read the books. movie-wise? way before harry potter and the prisoner of azkaban.
memories: sirius remembers everything up to his imprisonment in azkaban. he remembers the marauders and the marauder’s map, becoming an animagi, lily and james’ wedding and deaths, the first wizarding war, breaking ties with dear remus, being betrayed by pettigrew, and so on. everything after him breaking out of prison like, meeting teenage harry, the second wizarding war, and his death, he doesn’t remember. so basically, he doesn’t remember anything from the prisoner of azkaban movie and later hp movies. he does remember being taken from a prison floor to the sandy beach of ithaca. so sirius had not broken out of prison at that point in his life. he’d been transported elsewhere, for the sake of the rp. so, to HP muses, sirius is still considered a criminal in their world. he hasn’t been exonerated or anything yet, but in ithaca, people outside the hp fandom don’t know he’s a criminal. i imagine, in the wizarding world, he’s still considered dangerous, even though he’s really not.
theme song: n/a
3 likes &. 3 dislikes: likes causing trouble, dogs, & the time spent with the marauders. dislikes his family, peter pettigrew, being in an enclosed space for too long.
the usual haunt: as a bartender at the speakeasy club, on the beach, occasionally hanging around the university, or various places around ithaca!
skills: wizarding skills. he is also an animagus! an animagus is a witch or wizard who can transform into an animal. his animagus form is a black dog, which harry believed was a grim but really wasn’t. sirius is also a bit of a trickster, and he also can be very stealthy.
ANYTHING ELSE?
sirius’ wiki! if you have any questions, never read/watched harry potter, they could be answered there. i know it’s a long read, but it’s worth it! it’s how i found out more about sirius.
i *sweats* have never played sirius, and there’s a reason for that. i’ve loved his character since i saw prisoner of azkaban, but i thought, since i hadn’t read the books, hp fans were gonna grill me for trying to play this character having not read anything! and, i thought i’d suck. but, i’m gonna try now cause his more in-depth bio makes him so interesting to me! i will try my best. not. to. suck.
sirius comes off as this rebellious, bad boy. handsome af, but he’s really not as bad as he’s made out to be. he’s actually very loyal and intelligent. and he does have a heart. this bad boy persona is made worse from his title as a criminal and for his “crimes”. his good looks i guess don’t help much either, but for the people who don’t know him, even some of his family members, may believe him to be some sort of disappointment, bad boy, bad guy. yes, i do realize that he and james bullied snape while they were still at hogwarts (which was not okay). for the sake of this rp, the muns, and my own anti-bullying beliefs, i will say that was something sirius did in the past and was wrong, and i will not rp sirius bullying snape again, for everybody’s safety. i don’t want it to get personal and i realize bullying is a trigger for some people (sometimes even me). so they can be enemies, jus no bullying. prison’s kinda changed sirius too, so he’s not one to bully so easily anymore.
to not insult any british muns we have either, i won’t be using any britsh slang that the characters have used in the books/movies. i don’t want to use them in the wrong form and upset anyone so. he’ll speak regularly, jus imagine him with a british accent!
i think i read, in the books, sirius doesn’t have tattoos after he escapes, while in the movie he does. i’m going to say sirius does have them, but not as many, since he’s only been there for a year. they were branded on him for his crimes.
