BASICS

Character Name: Victoire Apolline Delacour-Weasley

VICTOIRE: Seventeen years of hearing stories about those who died on her birthday before her. Almost a decade of not celebrating her own birthday when she realized what it meant to others. Of course, she understands that this is the burden she carries – while her cousins bear namesakes of those who had fallen before them, she is the painful reminder of the day they lost people – so they could win freedom. She is the h e l l f i r ethat is left after a victory, scorching technicolor brutal memories into the minds of those who were left behind. APOLLINE: The french derivative of the name Apollonia which comes from the Greek god, Apollo. Apollo, the god of the sun, prophecy, music, beauty, healing, poetry, plague and so much more. It could be said that Victoire is her own brand of beautiful – of course the Veela genes help ( or do they? ) but if there’s anything she’s gotten from this namesake it’s the love of music. She’s sure that if she wasn’t going to work with dragons when she was older it would be with music – something she practically speaks as a language. The name might sound too flowery or too soft for Victoire – but her grandmother from which she was given this name was still a Veela. She still had the siren song that was deadly to almost associated with her name. Still, just because Victoire is comparable to a constantly raging storm – she has times where parts of her mother and grandmother comes out. DELACOUR: While she embraces the Weasley, Victoire also embraces her French heritage. If there’s anything of her mother, of this side of the family that comes out – it’s when she speaks French. She refuses to call her mother anything but maman, and will quickly switch to French around her during Weasley-Potter-Lupin gatherings at the burrow to make her feel even a little more comfortable. For Victoire, the Delacour name embodies softness and embodies femininity that she’s not always connected to. It reminds her that she’s not been alone in being discriminated against or objectified, that others understand what it’s like to be in her place to some extent. It’s then that she’s able to embrace the girl, that she’s able to feel like one and not always so at war with her body and herself. WEASLEY: If the other parts of her name didn’t already come with enough precedence – perhaps the name ‘Weasley’ was the icing on the cake. She couldn’t be prouder to be a Weasley, no matter how much fussing her grandmother does or how everyone is in everyone’s business – Victoire knows she is lucky. Vic is well aware of how privileged she is & how her infamous family of blood traitors are lucky to have the life they do.

Year: Seventh Year. This makes Victoire seventeen years old.

Pronouns & Gender: She/Her or Gon/Gons. Victoire identifies as a Demigirl.

C h a n g i n g. From the minute Victoire was born, she was always fidgeting, alwaysmoving and her first display of magic was at 4 years old, when she tried to change her hair blue like Teddy’s. Instead, it changed her beautiful crop of ginger hair into a dirty blonde. Often, she’d find herself envying Teddy’s abilities to change, feeling uncomfortable in her skin and angry that it wasn’t as easy for her. As she grew older, she came to understand what her body was, what it would be and that she’d never be able to change herself like Teddy or change herself at all. Any change that she’d make would be permanent and she found herself not wanting that in the slightest. Not wanting to limit herself because while Victoire loved her feminine side – there was something she felt growing in her soul that was just … something else. It didn’t have a label but it became her, it was her, and it was confusing but it was who she was. Victoire did research and after a while the closest thing she could find to what she felt her gender was the term:demigirl. Of course, after she realized this she told her parents, getting nothing but support from them. A reason they’ve let Victoire dye her hair so much and wear clothes that some parents would have heart attacks at, is so she feels like she has an option to be who she is. Even though they know that their child will be who she is with or without their permission, they figure helping her along the way in a world where there are many people who are against what her gender is & think it’s unnatural. They are Vic’s parents after all and after a war where they lost family and friends who gave their lives so their children could have freedom – it seems trivial to ever fuss over something like gender.

House: Slytherin

Taurus is the second sign of the zodiac and is associated with the neck and throat. Positive characteristics include stamina, patience, practicality, frugality, creativity, a love of beauty and nature, faithfulness, loyalty, determination, sensuality, and affection.Negative characteristics are stubbornness (there’s a reason why stubborn people are called bullheaded), materialism, resistance to change, laziness, a terrible temper once aroused, prejudice, and sometimes an unimaginative nature. In this House, the traits associated with Taurus that will be most emphasized are materialism and loyalty. These Slytherins will be almost blindly loyal to their friends and allies, and they will value wealth and the trappings of wealth over more intangible assets.Determination will also be emphasized. All Slytherins are determined, but the stubborn Taurus Slytherin is unstoppable once they have their mind set on something. A large number of Slytheirns in this sign work for Gringotts after graduating from Hogwarts, for they are very good with money.

It’s a secret that: Victoire Weasley thinks she killed someone. A month and a half after Victoire’s big seventeenth birthday, she went to a bar with her cousin, Lily. It was nice, the birthday rush still in her veins, the fact that she was legal ( at least in one world ) was nice. She easily used her charm to get past the front, and just sat at the pub drinking away at a Shirley Temple cocktail and before long she got talking with a random man. Really, there was nothing romantic on her part – but he got a little too friendly and just before Victoire could punish him for doing so, his girlfriend came out of the lavatory. She was smashed, so obviously, and angry as well but Victoire was able to slip away outside for a minute before her anger and thirst for release got the best of her. While she smoked a spliff, thinking that she had finally been able to get it under control, her itch for a fight – the girlfriend came outside and started a fight with Vic, something Victoire engaged in. It wasn’t before long that the other girl was being beaten senseless by the wix, and Victoire hadn’t stopped until she was suddenly snapped from her blackout. Inspecting the girl – Victoire’s veins practically went to ice when she saw she wasn’t moving. The girl looked dead – she had to be. Victoire ran. The next day in the muggle newspaper, Victoire couldn’t find a report of what had happened which just solidified the fear that she had actually killed someone. Unknown to her, the girl was okay choosing not to share her story with the press. It’s a secret that: Victoire Weasley self harms. She can’t remember how it quite started – a punch to the wall there after a fight, a purpose slap in the face, anything that released the rage she had. Victoire didn’t dare release it on the people she loved because she’d never be able to forgive herself for that, but it grew. The feeling grew and soon she had to hurt herself. But she can remember when she knew. When she needed reminders, when she needed blood and big bruises to litter her body. It’s something she’s so ashamed of, that she hasn’t let on to anyone. A reason Victoire craves fights and sometimes throws them is because of this masochistic need to hurt herself – just letting people beat her to unconsciousness. Her anger is so great, so c o n s u m i n g, there’s the small hope if she finds a way to release it somehow – it’ll go away. It’s a secret that: Victoire Weasley has hated her birthday since she was eight. Being born on May 2nd was more of a curse than anything as far as Victoire is concerned. She’s not selfish enough to be mad at everyone for grieving on her birthday, not at all, just mad that she doesn’t have it on a different day. Each year, there’s been at least one family member crying and one of her best friends parents died on the day she was born. When she was younger, before she knew why it was truly so upsetting for the people she loved – she didn’t understand. Now that she does, she hates the day and wishes she was born on another like she was supposed to be ( Victoire was a month early ). Still, she treats it as the day it is for everyone else and doesn’t express how she really feels about the day.

CHARACTERIZATION

Storm with skin. The performer. { Secret Strategist }. Masochistic with sadistic tendencies because she is just so filled with A N G E R ( being sexualized at a young age, her ass pinched on her first Hogsmeade trip, and so so much more that she doesn’t have a language to explain it in — only violent actions ). N o t that she’d let you know. Warrior, no, VALKYRIE more of a DRAGON than a girl ( if she ever was a g i r l in the first place ), fiercely protective of the people she loves — and if you dare mess with her family, friends, or any of the sort, you better run for oblivion. V I C T O R Y in her veins that she will hold onto until her dying breath.

Victoire Weasley is more than just a simple human being, she’s the true embodiment of what it means to be a storm with skin. Enigmatic even. First approaching this version of Victoire – I was nervous. It’s been a year and I’ve still been nervous to play her as well as how I imagine she’s percieved. An improper Victoire who wears leather pants more than pajamas? A Slytherin Victoire? A bar fighting, dragon loving/part dragon, tattoo adorning Victoire Weasley? Punk to the core? Constantly dyeing her hair? Terrified. Victoire is quite sure of who she is, what she wants in life & what she will get, she’s quite sure of everything that she is —- but in those moments she blacks out in pure rage — she’s not so sure. She’s h o r r i f i e d. In those moments where she looks for pain like she’s a drug addict and it’s her next fix, she’s mortified. “I will always scare; and more than anyone else — myself.”

It was in House of Serpents that she learned there is grey. There is moral grey, and it’s where she lives. With a heart so big, so W I D E, that even she doesn’t realize it’s part of the reason her anger can consume her. Feeling things for Victoire Weasley is never half arsed, it’s full arsed, and her passion, her ambition, could be the death of her. Her ambition to save the ones she loves, to protect her family. F a m i l y. A word redefined by Victoire fucking Weasley. But when you meet her, she’ll s m i l e. She’ll laugh, she’ll charm you most likely and she’ll talk about the fact that Freddie Mercury is much more interesting than John Lennon, thank you very much. How Johnny Cash, Jeff Buckley, Arctic Monkeys, Queen, HAIM, and Aerosmith should be listened to at least once a day and how if she wanted anyone’s singing voice besides Freddie’s, it would be Hayley Williams, no doubt. She’d take off her shirt to show you the tattoos that run down her back, tell you about the ones that s n a k e down shoulders, arms, legs and how they’re ones dedicated to each and every one of her family members. For her best friends. With child like w o n d e r m e n t and pure genuine glee, she’ll talk about her dragon, Mercury, and how her and Hagrid have planned to try to start a campaign to get real dragons at Hogwarts.

Then, a competition that made her think of The Goblet of Fire came along and she couldn’t help the suspicion that flared within her. Everything might’ve been safe, dandy, fine, but it could change in the drop of a hat. Victoire just wanted to be excited but time showed that was not going to be easy. All she knows that if it does go wrong, she will protect them, she has to. She’s had to put herself together, she had to keep herself more composed. Her family & friends need to her to her stable – as stable as she could be. Vic may have gone about a month without an incident, as well as been in the eye of the storm that is herself, but there’s a storm around her now.

—& she is now a hurricane. Controlled chaos because despite it all, she’s a Slytherin for a reason. She’s manipulative, cunning, a silver tongue used mostly for words, and she needs to become some sort of matriarch. There were crushing expectations that were supposed to do just that but were thrown out the window since day one. Now, the expectations of being Victoire Weasley must be embraced. Now, they are because her family needs her, and she finally can be what they wanted her to be. A leader of sorts. Their VICTORY. Beneath the chaos is kindness she shows to people, is the gentle touch and wise words that make you wonder — who exactly is Victoire Weasley? A teenage hurricane, in the middle of a chaos, who came to find that maybe she was born to fight.

✪ : Critique they have about others

While she can understand some her classmates animosity and anger she doesn’t approve of how they choose to take it out. Vic as well doesn’t approve of their reasoning for it — yessome of them may be brainwashed into their views but she still feels it’s unacceptable.

✫ : Pet peeve

When people don’t understand the word “no”. Having a history of being harassed by various men in some of the places she hangs out (Hogshead at times, Romania when she’s there with her uncle Charlie, anywhere really Merlin knows her curiosity and badass-ness has gotten her into some sticky situations as well as weird places ) she absolutely hates when people don’t respect the word “no” — especially in those situations.

✬ : Something minor they enjoy

Rainbows. Colors. While colors might not necessarily be minor, even little things, little colors that she loves make her really happy and intrigued. What is that color? Is there a name for it? She idly in her spare time likes to name colors on her own. One day she hopes to successfully dye her hair rainbow on her own without any magic.

✭ : An obscure interest

Dragons and Care of Magical Creatures. Mostly dragons, Vic loves everything dragons — especially the uses of dragon blood, which she has tried before. Even dragon dung as fertilizer (even if she’s not the most knowledgable on Herbology ) interests her.

✮ : A moral standard

As Vic aligns with the Chaotic Good alignment there are Ten Chaotic Good sins which of a few, Victoire definitely identifies with. Though, there is one in particular that Victoire practices and holds as a standard for herself. “ Failing to perform a random act of kindness when appropriate.” Vic feels deep down quite ashamed of some of her actions while blinded by rage, especially the ones that involve hurting herself. Performing random acts of kindness to her sort of makes up for her actions, sort of balancing good and bad — even if it’s just in herself. Sort of like Stitch from Lilo & Stitch when Lilo illustrates those drawings of Stitch’s bad and good. While she knows it’s not that black & white, she can’t help but feel that it is when it comes to herself. She knows that she acts out and is flawed as well as acts irrationally — so maybe just maybe that helps her add to her own goodness.
