Alright, I'm bored. Does anyone have any kittens they'd be willing to give up for a sacrifice? The Slytherin gods demand it! Heh.

Alright, so I've always suspected Mum and Dad have hated me, but now I'm sure of it. They think this stupid marriage is a "wonderful opportunity for me." I'm sorry, but did I wake up in another DIMENSION?! A marriage to a WEASLEY will be GOOD for me? What the bloody hell is that about? At least Mum didn't come up with the idea, so maybe there's a small chance that she might still like me. I'm not a Death Eater nor am I a Dark Lord supporter. My parents aren't either.Except Dad, but he hasn't SAID he supports the Dark Lord, so that doesn't count. Who is? My stupid prat of a brother. I don't care how much of a bad DE he thinks he is, when it comes down to it, he's just a wanker with bad hair. No one will miss him if I kill him in his sleep. It won't be hard, either. Idiot never sleeps with his wand nearby, and with one pillow pressed to his face, it'll be over soon. It's less messy if you use a pillow.

BASICS
Full Name: Millicent Harrietta Bulstrode
Age: 17
Birthday: March 17, 1980
Astrological Sign: Pisces
Astrological Significance: This is not the most natural of sun signs for a Slytherin to be born into, but it's not unheard of, and when it happens, the results are usually interesting. These Slytherins dream big. Because of their romantic streak and their need for mystery and glamour, their dreams are often the most dazzling of all. To put them into fruition, they either need to develop a pragmatic streak, or partner up with a practical wizard who will help midwife the dreams and keep them going. These Slytherins are loners or followers rather than leaders, but don't assume that they are doormats - they wouldn't be Slytherin if they didn't have some backbone. They will accommodate people to the best of their limits, but if those limits are pushed or violated, they will get angry - and they will remember. A Pisces never forgets a cut or a kindness. Ever.
House/Year: Slytherin 7th year
Bloodline: Halfblood, though she'd never admit it. Her mother is a pureblood, and her father is a halfblood who supports You-Know-Who.
Sexuality: Straight.
ANCESTRIAL BACKGROUND
Parents: Leigh and Charlotte Bulstrode met in the typical way. They were both Slytherins and in the same year together. They co-existed peacefully for several years, until Leigh finally took notice of the way Charlotte's eyes lit up when she discussed Herbology, and she continued to ignore his existence for another year. In their sixth year, he finally demanded that she should go on a date with him, as he was the best thing that she'd ever find at Hogwarts. After another six months of apologizing and sending Charlotte many expensive gifts, Leigh finally had a date with her. At the age of 19, the two were married in a lavish ceremony, though only thirty people came to the wedding.
Millicent supposes that her parents love each other, though there's rarely instances of physical affection in the Bulstrode household. Charlotte is a headstrong woman who believes that a woman's duty is to herself, and to no one else. She refused to give up her career as a herbologist when she and Leigh decided to start having a family, and Leigh refused to stop his career at the Department of Magical Transportation. As a result, the six Bulstrode children were raised by their maternal grandmother, Alecia. Charlotte and Leigh have always emotionally cared for their children, even if they didn't want to care for them physically. Each night, they gathered their children around them, and read various stories from “The Tale of the Three Brothers” to biographies of famous wizards.
Millicent thinks that she loves her parents, since they're nice enough, though they weren't really there for her growing up. She knows that they much preferred her siblings over her, and she honestly can't blame them for that. Growing up, Millicent's grandmum was often too busy to pay attention to a five-year-old who demands attention. She was sent to her great-grandfather whenever she demanded attention, as he lived just down the road and he craved attention, as well. Millicent has always been the favourite of her great-grandfather Bulstrode, and she honestly has no idea why. Millicent is one of the few people who listens to the old man, though his mind isn't what it used to be. He often boasts about battling dragons and overcoming a nasty case of dragon pox about thirty various times in his life. Neither of those things are true, but Millicent listens to each story, trying not to laugh, and trying to sound sympathetic. In appreciation for listening, her great-grandfather tells her to pick out one item that she likes in his house, and to put her name on the bottom of it. Now at 17, there are dozens of rare items that are willed to Millicent, and since she put her name on the staircase when she was eight, she's had the suspicion that she might be the one to inherit his house. Her great-grandfather might not be in his right mind, but he's always been fair. He doesn't think anyone should have things given to him, especially to people who seem exasperated while around him.
Siblings:
Alecia Bulstrode: Alecia is the oldest of the Bulstrode children at thirty-two. Millicent doesn't really know her oldest sister, as by the time she was born, Alecia was already a sixth year at Hogwarts. Alecia was taught by her grandmother, that as the eldest, she represented the Bulstode family, and should set the bar for her younger siblings at Hogwarts, and in life. Alecia strove for the best grades, best clothes, best boyfriends, best everything. By the time she left Hogwarts, her siblings had quite a bit to live up to. After Hogwarts, she became an apprentice at a private wizarding law office. There, she met a cunning lawyer named Felix Lumberton, and a year later, they were married. With his help, she quickly rose ranks within the law office, and at thirty-two, she is their star lawyer, often representing the rich and famous.
Davy Bulstrode: Davy is the adored first born son, and he acts as such. At Hogwarts, he spent more time on his social career than his academic career, knowing that he had an inheritance waiting for him after his parents died. The fact that his parents are still young and healthy didn't seem to cross his mind at time, nor has it since. With a sister two years older than him who was much more worried about grades than he was, Davy often tricked his sister into doing his homework for him. If she refused, then so did he, and he would fail. It was a win-win situation, and it allowed him to think of clever pranks to pull on the Gryffindor's, and find the perfect, rich wife for himself. Now that he's thirty, he's succeeded in finding a rich wife, who likes him enough. They have two children together, and plan to stop there. Thankfully for his wife, Davy managed to get her pregnant with two boys, which is what they had planned for. If they had a girl, they'd continue trying until they got their two boys, and his wife wasn't sure if she'd be able to share a bed with him for that long.
Gaspard Bullstrode: Gaspard's father has made it known that he favours his younger song. Leigh would take his son into his study whenever he was home, and the family can only speculate what Gaspard was learning in that room. Gaspard has always been secretive, and even in school, no one really knew what he was thinking or could say they were his friend. He kept his head low in school, reading book after book, whose titles always appeared blurred. He became the Head Boy in his seventh year, and when he wasn't working on school or patrolling, he was in his room, reading as many books as possible. After Hogwarts he took an entry level job as an Unspeakable. He's now twenty-five, and gives his services to the Dark Lord. He was one of the wizards helping to take over the Ministry, though he's not so important as to be able to take the Mark.
Erica Bulstrode: Georgiana has always been known as the attractive one. Her mother and grandmother cooed over her when she was little, always making sure that she looked as beautiful as possible. At the age of six, she already had men bidding for her hand in marriage, and Charlotte was delighted. No one's exactly sure how Georgiana became so lovely, especially when her parents aren't the most attractive people in the world. Millicent believes that her sister was given looks to make up for her lack of a brain, and also that Georgiana was adopted. She's the closest in age to Millicent, at nineteen, and she's been engaged three times. She has fun sucking the assets out of men.
Bethany Bulstrode: She is the youngest Bulstrode children at fifteen, and unlike Millicent, she has always been a fighter. When she was born, something had gone wrong during the pregnancy, and one leg had been shorter than the other, and she had a weak heart. Charlotte and Leigh were more worried about her heart than her leg, and when she was eight, her heart showed improvement after a few terrifying trips to St. Mungo's. Bethany convinced her parents to send her to St. Mungo's to get her leg fixed, and she was in and out in less than a day. Millicent was the closest to Bethany were the closest, and they got along fairly well, until they got into a nasty fight at Hogwarts, when Bethany was a third year. Millicent had been angry, and called her the first name she could think of: “Gimpy.” Unfortunately this had been a rather public and loud fight, and even though no one knew what Millicent was talking about, the damage had been done.
PERSONALITY
Millicent has always been the girl that everyone ignores. She has been called dumb, ugly, butch, mean, dull, and whatever negative name you'd like to think of. For all her life, she was shoved to the side. She was never prettier or smarter than her siblings, and she often turned away when she was insulted. Since she never responded, it confirmed that she was dull-witted. She never contradicted her family or teachers, and instead left the room to find something else to do by herself.
She's tried to change herself, by trying to become smarter or more pretty without any luck. She tried to be funny, musically inclined, artistic, outgoing, and athletic, but she failed at everything she tried. The only real talent she has is being mean and being a failure. With each failure, she became a bit more mean towards the people who insulted her or laughed at her efforts. She's rude and harsh to the people who deserve it, and she only finishes fights, not start them. Millicent isn't a Death Eater in training, and she never will be. She believes that Muggles are fine where they are, and unless they start gathering up witches to burn them, she doesn't care what they do. They kill each other enough as it is, without wizarding help.
APPEARANCE
Facially: Millicent resembles her mother more than her father. She inherited her oval face, though when she was younger, her face was a perfect circle. She also inherited her mother's lack of eyebrows, her full lips, and her grey eyes. She did get her father's hair and nose, though.
Hair: Her hair is black, thick, and painfully straight.
Height: Millicent hasn't been measured since she was fifteen. She knows that she's grown since then, but she couldn't tell you how much. She guesses that she's around 5'7.
Weight: 172 pounds, though she'd never tell anyone that.
Build: Millicent had always been a round, and solid child. Her mother had put her on every diet and exercise program available, to no luck. She has always had her father's build, and genetics ruled over a healthy lifestyle. As she grew up, and got taller, she became less round, but still just as solid. Over the last few years, she's slimmed down a bit, though not a lot.
Style: Millicent doesn't really have a style. She wears whatever is black comfortable, and fits her. She abhors skirts, though.
VIEWS ON....
Death: Death happens, and there's no use trying to put it off. If you spend your whole life trying to be as healthy and safe as possible, you miss out on good food, and fun.
Love: Love happens, though not in the way books make it seem like. You don't make eye contact with someone and know for sure that he or she is your one true love. You get to know the person, then you become friends, then you may love the person, and might get married. It's never a quick thing, and she thinks that anyone who says otherwise is delusional.
Politics: No, thanks. She'll leave that to the people who are smarter than she is.
Sex: Sex is overrated and it can't be as nice as everyone says it is. There's only one reason to have sex, and that's to have kids.
Children: Kids aren't worth it. No matter how you raise them, they'll still end up hating you, and wishing for something better than.
War: Millicent thinks that war is stupid, including this one. Muggles aren't hurting anyone, and there's no such thing as stealing magic.
