Charis Black was a reserved and somewhat cold woman. She never talked much nor showed too many emotions. Everyone compared her to her father because of that. As she grew she closed up more, specially after her older sister, Cedrella, was disowned for her ideals. Not that she shared them, of course, but she didn't actually know what exactly made her family so upset.
She married Caspar Crouch, one of the possible heirs of the Crouch family, a man with short temper but not enough thought to make anything with it. They had three children: Bartemius Sr., Rosalind and Virgine Crouch. Because of her difficulty to connect emotionally with people she never really had a maternal relationship with them, but she treated them to the best of her abilities.
