Mind Set
[/size][/center]Sexual Preference: Straight
General Attitude:
Andromeda Black is a fairly complex person. She portrays herself with a confident attitude and an air of intelligence. Disarmlingly smart and insightful, Andromeda is someone who is very hard to forget, even if someone dislikes her. She has raised herself over the years to know what to say, when to say it and to whom. Her family has made it very difficult for her over the years and she has needed o train herself what to think and when to think it basically. Andromeda struggles constantly with what her mind and her heart tell her: One always sides against the other, and this can lead her to run away from her problems until she can come up with a rational idea of why she feels the way she does. Her family telling her that she’s truly better than everyone and that muggles, muggle-borns and half-bloods and beneath her. She truly doesn’t believe this yet knows when to say it and when to not. She would be devastated if she lost her family, though she finds them cruel at times. She has made friends with almost all houses, many even reside in Slytherin, because there dwells most of her family and she does know how to act when and has traits similar to many of the members of that house thanks to her family background. She can be cruel and unforgiving if it‘s call for, but is much more lenient with people than her family. She can be seducing and even a bit of a tease.
She also has friends and acquaintances in the other three houses as well though and good friends with Sirius and many Gryffindors despite the glares and talks she get from her sisters.
Almost constantly full of spunk, ambition, and imagination, Andromeda has a unique view of the world that has both helped her and hurt her along the way. She sees beauty in the melancholy and dirt in the golden, but it is often hard for her to find a middle ground. Following this vision, Andromeda believes that from every bad experiences comes something useful, even if she cannot understand the reasoning behind the pain. She likes to think she is very resilient, which she can be if she applies herself. She is kind and fiercely loyal to the loved ones around her, even sticking up for her cousin Sirius and his friends at times to her family, though it’s never had a good outcome.

History:
Andromeda Black is a pureblood witch. Daughter of Cygnus and Druella (Rosier) Black. She’s the youngest of the Black daughters, and also cousin of Sirius and Regulus Black. She grew up in her parents grand estate in Wiltshire and was treated like a princess along with her sisters who received the same treatment. She was given everything from the best clothes and toys, to piano lessons where she mastered the instrument, much like her sister Narcissa grew to love horseback riding. Andromeda has always been different from her proud, pureblood family. She has not thought of herself better than muggle-borns or half-bloods, or even muggles for that matter. She has only said this once though. Too Bella when she was five. Bella told her to never say such a idiotic thing again, and she never has...too her family.
Andromeda had not been looked at oddly again in her family until her first year of Hogwarts. Where instead of being put into Slytherin, with the rest of her family, she was sorted into Ravenclaw. Her and her cousin Sirius have been the only non-Slytherins in the family, but unlike her cousin, who is one of her closest friends, she has yet to destroy her ties to her family, and despite looking like the innocent, average Ravenclaw, she’s very much accepted in the Slytherin house.
She loves her sisters, though many people think of them cruel, she thinks of them as confused. They were brought up that way, they know no better. And even though Andromeda was in the same boat, she's different, and maybe a little smarter than the rest of her family. She keeps a close watch on her sisters when with them, often thinking they were too easily corrupted and naive. They’re too different, and though she tries her best to act like them, she’s not mean enough and often slipping up and receiving odd looks and sneers from the Slytherins.

Sample RP This is from another site where I'm Hermione.
"Oh, because you treat Pansy like a princess don't you?! Let her follow you around, shower you with attention, keeping her around for a hot shag every once in a while but avoid her after." she accused Draco. "Yes. I'm the only girl you would ever treat like shit, aren't I Malfoy?"
She hated cursing. It was vile an disgusting, yet that's what Malfoy always seemed to do. Lower her standards. Of course he didn't want to talk to her. That's why he had just spilled his inner thoughts to her. Yeah, she was definitely special.
"Don't you compare yourself to me, Malfoy. You weren't sent out to murder someone who didn't care about you. You were sent out to kill Albus Dumbledore. Someone who you looked up too, even if you didn't like to admit it, and someone who has offered you a second chance." Hermione told him. "That's why you couldn't do it. Because Dumbledore gave so many people hope, including you. Noone out there will ever care about me, because just as you said it. I'm a Filthy. Little. Mudblood. And unlike you, I will have nothing to lose when killing them and everything to gain. You lost yourself when you helped kill everyones Hero, because deep inside, he was yours too."
She stood up straight and glared at him with what felt like pure hatred dripping from her very pores. He was right. She had wanted to tell Ron that she cared for him more than a friend. She had put it off many times, finding excuses for her not to just tell him. But really, she was afraid. That he really didn't like her, and that he would choose someone like Lavender Brown once again over her. She could take being told that she loved Ron. She could because it was true. But the moment he said Ron would die she couldn't control herself anymore. The moment he put it in her head, that Ron might die, she hit him. She had headed straight for Draco. She didn't even realize she was moving until she was right in front of the blonde haired idiot and did the first thing she could think of. She hit him. Not like the pitiful slap she had startled him with in their third year, but a full out, fist to his face, punch. She hit him on his cheek bone, right under his left eye.
Hermione had tears in her eyes, but she wasn't crying. It was from anger. How could he treat her like an equal for such a short period of time, then she take it away and tell her what she had always though? That she was fooling herself. That she should be scared and run away like she wanted to, but wouldn't do. He had pointed out every single thing she was afraid of. And for that, she hated him.
*edit by Bellatrix Black - Reason: It bugged me and there was a part where the size was too large.
