Build: Bellatrix is rather curvy, and she loves it. Her chest is somewhat larger than average, and her hips are enough to grab a hold of. She quite likes her hourglass figure, and wouldn't want to be underweight.
Distinguishing Characteristics: None.
Description of Appearance:
Bellatrix is a very beautiful young woman, and she plays it to her advantage whenever it comes to dealing with men. Like the rest of the Black girls, the woman has enough beauty to get her out of situations, but she tries to use her head rather than her looks. Just using her lovely features would get boring after a while, and she likes a challenge every so often.
Her skin is pale, as it is with most English women, and it contrasts her dark hair and eyes rather nicely. She has skinny, long fingers, and her round nails always happen to be oddly clean. Her legs are long, and her shoulders aren't rounded, but rather angular. She throws them back proudly - she is a Black, after all.
With a curvy figure, Bellatrix wishes she was a little taller every once and a while, but she deals with the body she has been given. Many women fret about their looks, but Bellatrix embraces them, and uses them to her own benefits.
Her facial shape is heart shaped, with a pointed chin and high cheekbones, typical of the aristocracy of England. She looks every inch a wealthy Pureblood woman should look like, much to the contentment of her parents. While her darling little sister Narcissa is fair, Bellatrix is dark, and wouldn't have it any other way.

Description of personality:
Bellatrix has always been a haughty woman. She likes to believe she is better than everyone else around her, and isn't afraid to let her opinions on blood purity be known. She can be selfish, cruel, and has a rather morbid sense of humour. Despite everything else, Bellatrix is also fiercely loyal, both to her family, and to her dark master Voldemort.
The woman also happens to be as paranoid as they come. Always glancing over her shoulder, or worrying that she is being followed. It's not as though she is frightened, but rather she feels uneasy that someone may overhear something they shouldn't.
Intelligence is ranked high in her list of decent qualities, and she has always had the desire to learn more. Her temper boils quickly, and those around her tend to suffer because of it.
Her true love, as it stands, has been completely given over to the Dark Lord Voldemort. The man is her world, and she would do anything for him.
She loathes animals, and has a fear that they are secretly an animagus sent out to spy on her.
Bellatrix likes it when other people are in pain, especially if she is the one causing it. She is a sadist, and thinks that some people simply deserve to be punished, and that's all there is to it. Despite this general attitude, Bella makes a wonderful big sister to her Narcissa. Not to much to Andromeda, but she feels something of a motherly need to take care of Narcissa. Yes, there are times that they bicker, but Bellatrix sees her as the youngest, and therefore needs to be taken care of the most, otherwise the young woman will do something stupid.
But to sum up Bellatrix, you only need a sentence of so - a completely sadistic nutter, to put it lightly. Even as a young woman, many question her sanity.

Biography
Bellatrix Druella Black was the first child of Cygnus and Druella, a very powerful and influential couple of the Black family line. As a baby, Bellatrix was quite the happy little duck. She was spoiled, the center of attention, and for one solid year, there was no one else to compete with. And then Andromeda came into the picture. While many would assume Bella would hate the new little girl in the family, she was far too young to realize what was happening. It only occurred to her when she was a little older, maybe four or five, that she never received as much attention from the rest of her family if her baby sisters were around. They were always cuter, and did new things that were more interesting...
Bellatrix rebelled at a very young age, and did anything she could to irritate her parents. Although to their face she was a respectful child, behind their backs she did whatever she pleased. Bella tormented the house elves, pushed expensive pots over and blamed it on her younger sister Narcissa, and quite liked covering Andromeda in ink when the girl was too weak to fight back. Naturally, her parents punished her, though nothing seemed to be working. She never yielded to their threats, or spankings... Only when they locked her in a closet did she break down sobbing. The darkness was too much to take for her, and ever since then, whenever she misbehaved, her mother and father threatened to lock her in the closet and leave her there forever. That generally forced her to act her age.
Her first signs of magic were coupled with her temper. Whenever something irritated her, seriously irritated her, she managed to make a few of those things explode. Nothing too drastic, but when she caused a jar of cookies to explode when her mother held it away from her, everyone knew that she had magic in her.
Hogwarts was a different experience. At first, people weren't willing to do things for her, unlike the servants she had at home. That simply would not do; as a dangerous Slytherin, Bellatrix had her dominance asserted firmly within her house by the time she had reached her second year. Most of the time, she was with boys. The girls were too... girlish. With the boys, she found she could learn new spells, hex people over laughter, and develop a few extra bits of muscle to safe guard her whenever she got into a little bit of trouble. Besides; Bella was pretty, which meant most boys would already be willing to do things for her, whether she asked politely or not.
Throughout her entire seven years, Bellatrix remained dominant in her social life, but also with her academics. She had high marks in her O.W.L.s, and managed to take several of the most difficult N.E.W.T classes, including Potions and Transfigurations. When graduation came, she felt she was more than ready to go out into the world and make herself a well known figure.
On the topic of boys, Bellatrix went through a few. She liked what she could do with them, and how they could make her feel good. Boyfriends were never really her style, but if she needed to, she would string some along just for the benefits she would reap from them. There was one boy, Rodolphus Lestrange, who seemed rather insistent she date him, but she always turned him down. He was in her year, and if he wanted her that badly, he could fight for her.
Her parents purchased her a flat in Muggle London shortly after graduation. Despite it's location, Bellatrix loves the freedom she has while she is in it. She can bring men home at whatever hour she pleases, can eat whatever she wants while inside it, and doesn't have to listen to her mother's prattling questions about whether or not she is going to get married sometime this decade. There are days when she stays in her old manor, though most of the time she prefers to live on her own.
After only being out of Hogwarts for two years, Bellatrix was quick to join up with Voldemort and his growing group of followers. She was intelligent, pure, rich, and above all sadistic. It didn't take long for her to be accepted, and the Mark on her forearm only proves her loyalty to her new master. Infact, Bellatrix has fallen for the man more than she is willing to admit. His brainpower draws her in each and every time she sees him, and although she is young, and she knows the risks of following him, Bellatrix could never imagine disobeying or going against his orders. She does as she is told, and awaits the day when her side will turn up victorious.
