| Bio: | Name: Andromeda Nemesia Black-Tonks Age: 48 Birthday: January 25th, 1953 Wand: Yew, unicorn tail hair, 9 inches, flexible House at Hogwarts: Slytherin Family: Grandson Teddy, husband Ted (deceased), daughter Nymphadora (deceased), son-in-law Remus Lupin (deceased) Parents: Cygnus Black and Druella Rosier (deceased) Siblings: Bellatrix Lestrange (deceased), Narcissa Malfoy Family interactions: Like her younger cousin Sirius, Andromeda was blasted off the family tree, which says quite a lot about her family interactions. When everyone in your family calls you“filthy blood traitor” just for marrying the love of your life, Ted Tonks (a charming and lovely muggleborn), you tend not to have too much to do with them. She instead focused on her marriage with Ted and raising her wonderful little girl, Nymphadora. Occupation: Healer in the Janus Thickey Ward at Saint Mungo’s Residence: She still resides in the house she’s lived in since Nymphadora was a girl. Financial status: Relatively well off, her job at Saint Mungo’s lets her live a comfortably middle-class life with her grandson. Political views: Andi was a supporter of the original Order of the Phoenix, although she kept her involvement mostly to providing her home as a safe house, and occasionally patching up the members after run-ins with Death-Eaters. She sheltered Harry and Hagrid for an evening during the war, and still keeps a guest room ready for those who need it. Blood Status: Pureblood Sexuality: Straight Physical description Height: 5’ 7 Weight: 130 lbs. Distinguishing marks: Andi looked startlingly like her older sister Bellatrix, but age has blurred that resemblance a little. Appearance: Andromeda looks a lot older than she is, and always appears rather sad. She usually keeps her dark hair (now streaked with grey) tied back in a no-nonsense style for work, letting it down only rarely. Personality: Her early rebellious streak has calmed and Andromeda has matured into a quietly confident motherly sort of person, cool in a crisis, and just generally the sort of person you’d expect to be baking cookies on her days off and being ready with a hot cup of tea in times of personal turmoil. The loss of her husband, and then her daughter destroyed her spirit. Gone was the devoted mother and wife, replaced with a widow. She is quiet and withdrawn, her occasional smiles reserved only for Teddy. In the three years since the end of the war, she has slowly started to come back to herself. Her old friends are finally beginning to see her old self return. She prefers quiet pursuits, reading or crocheting, and occasionally even baking. She’s a devoted grandmother and ruthlessly spoils her grandson. History Early Life: The middle Black sister, Andromeda was the dark, quiet studious one, often found curled up in a corner of the library with a book. Somehow one holiday, she got a hold of a piece of muggle literature (the biography of Florence Nightengale) and fell in love with the forbidden genre. Her rebellion was a quiet one, and it didn’t seem particularly dangerous. Hogwarts years: Finally free of her family’s influence, Andromeda befriended most of the students of her year, muggleborn and pureblood alike, and early on proved herself adept at healing charms and potions. She was an avid Quidditch fan, and it was no surprise to her friends when she fell in love with the Quidditch player Ted Tonks. Upon graduating from Hogwarts in 1970, she moved in with Ted and married him later that year. Career: Andi pursued her natural talent for healing and worked her way up from errand-girl to healer at Saint Mungo’s. She cut back to half-time after the birth of her daughter and stayed mostly at home with her until Nymphadora left for Hogwarts in 1984. Returning to work full time, she eventually landed at the Janus Thickey Ward for spell-damaged patients, where her motherly manner seemed to have a soothing influence on many of the patients. Second War: Not an official member of the Order of the Phoenix, Andromeda and Ted were both quite supportive of the Order, and offered their home as a safe house. Harry Potter and Rubeus Hagrid stayed there for an evening, which was the first time Andromeda and Harry had met. When the Ministry came under Voldemort’s control, Andromeda and Ted were both captured and tortured for information about Harry. Ted fled when muggleborns were forced to start registering, leaving Andromeda alone with her pregnant daughter (who had married Remus Lupin that summer). His death was a huge blow to Andi and Tonks, and when her grandson was born, the boy was named Teddy. Her daughter and son-in-law were killed at the Battle of Hogwarts, leaving Andromeda and Teddy alone. The Past Three Years: These past three years have been hard for Andromeda. She’s cut back to half-time at Saint Mungo’s again, and is focusing much of her energies on raising Teddy, with the help of his godfather Harry Potter. Recently though, she’s been hearing some interesting rumours…  | |||||||||
