FULL NAME : LESTRANGE, elisabeth thérèse KNOWN SOBRIQUETS AND / OR PSEUDONYMS : lissa, the heiress of house lestrange, charms master, mistress lestrange. REGISTERED BLOOD STATUS : pureblood. KNOWN LANGUAGES : dutch ( native ), english ( native ), french ( fluent ), german ( conversational ), latin ( fluent, exclusively used for spell work ). BIRTHPLACE : ghent, belgium FAMILY : LESTRANGE, corvus v ; LESTRANGE, marie élise née faber. MARITAL STATUS : unmarried, seeking a worthy match SPOUSE, IF APPLICABLE : –– OFFSPRING, IF APPLICABLE : –– ORIENTATION : panromantic, pansexual DATE OF BIRTH & AGE : july 14, 1923 & 27 WESTERN ZODIAC : cancer sun, cancer moon, leo ascendant. PROFILE : EYE COLOR : green, like the sunlight that filters through leaves in the early days of summer. HAIR COLOR : dark brown. BUILD & HEIGHT : defined jaw and cheekbones, shapely curves. 5′6 IDENTIFYING MARKS & SCARS : none of note. SCHOOLING : BEAUXBATONS, academy of magic. HOUSE, IF APPLICABLE : éclatant. the house of brilliance, the members of this house have found excellence in their magical pursuits and boast graduates such as perenelle flamel and marie curie. exceptionally creative, forward thinking, and more ambitious than most knew how to focus it before their arrival to the school, éclatant’s students are at the forefront of innovation. whether reinventing spells and maximizing their use or inventing new ones ( something about modern problems needing modern solutions ). still, éclatant’s house has laid out one thing very well: some of the most creative minds don’t choose the most clear cut paths. independence, so says the plaque beneath perenelle’s statue on beauxbaton’s grounds, is watered by creativity and confidence. N. E. W. T. S EQUIVALENT : charms · o, transfiguration · o, herbology · o, potions · o. NOTE : beauxbatons academy of magic offers a different set of examinations which ultimately qualify their students at sixth year and allow seventh year students to specialize in their fields of success after their sixth year. this allows beauxbatons students to typically enter their workforce earlier as some students intern with the french ministry or find masters to learn under for their own future masteries in. with this being the case, miss lestrange’s grades come from her sixth year of studies. her tutelage under richard macintosh began when she first visited ireland and sought mister macintosh out. he only accepted her as a student, so she says, because she impressed him with an undoubtedly strong cheering charm that kept him under her spell for almost two hours. he came to his own faculties while they were in the midst of tea. miss lestrange has carefully stressed this was in no way an imperius curse. OCCUPATION : MASTER of charms. mistress lestrange is currently crafting spells as part of her research for her own charms textbook. mistress lestrange has also been experimenting with combining transfiguration and charms spells into a single action. MINISTRY FIELD, IF APPLICABLE : –– REGISTERED WAND : willow wood, veela hair core, 12 ¾ inches, and surprisingly springy. willow wands are typically considered to be feminine, favoring charms work, non verbal spells, and healing magic. willow wands also favor a wielder who bears some kind of insecurity and equally have an incredible potential. veela cores are notoriously temperamental but they, too, have their own favor towards charms, and the master of charms is as graceful in her magical expertise as she is in everything else that she does. AMORTENIA : there’s a fondness that comes with the question, a moment of remembrance for a first love and disastrous potions class all in one go. elisabeth said that the cherries from across the room were the first thing she smelled, because of the cherry trees on the lestrange property growing up. it’s the one smell that was truly familiar, like she was going home. the second thing she mentioned was something deeper, that she couldn’t quite place her finger on at the time ( now it’s something she recognizes faintly as someone’s cologne, though she has been in the presence of too many men attempting to win her over to identify specifically which one -- though it did have notes of sandalwood ? or perhaps bergamot ? ) . and then, without a doubt, there was the sweet notes of toffee and butterscotch that have become part of her christmas traditions. BOGGART : her own gravestone, marking her as the last of her family’s line . her father’s spirit rises up and begins cursing his daughter for failing them, for failing him because she wouldn’t live up to the one thing he asked of her. upon the casting of a successful counter charm shows her surrounded by multiple children, with a partner beaming at her with pride. one might be careful to note that even though the charm is successful, it might lead to a deeper fear that even with all these children and this legacy secured, she is not truly happy. PATRONUS : corporeal, a raven . mystics tend to find comfort in ravens, but they are insightful creatures who are generally known for their cleverness and understanding . it’s a toss up in the muggle world if ravens are a good omen or agent of sin, but in the magical world it is far more indicative of a person who seeks ( or has attained ) freedom. it is worth noting that the raven is the symbol of the house of lestrange. KNOWN AFFILIATIONS : BURKE, fidelia. LESTRANGE, taliesin. MACINTOSH, richard. MCKINNON, malachai. WEASLEY, septimus. CURRENT MAILING ADDRESS : 3 faber road, her mother’s former summer home and built by the faber family in 1667 after the great fire. LAST SEEN LOCATION : arriving by portkey in the ministry accommodations for international travel from france, after attending a meeting for the académie française des sorciers. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION : member of the académie française des sorciers as their secondary supervising body on charms , first belgian born witch to win the dunstable dueling competition as set forth by the british wizard dueling association, her title as master of charms was awarded after studying with sir richard macintosh who is only known to have produced ten such masters before her ( most thought he was dead prior elisabeth’s mastery ).
