"It is natural to man to indulge in the illusion of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth, and listen to the song of the siren till she transforms us into beasts."

APPEARANCE

Play-By: Lena Headey

Weight: 119 lbs
Hair Colour: Black
Eye Colour: blue/green
Skin Colour: Fair
Distinguishing Features: Tattoos are shown above: a lotus between her shoulder blades, an exotic bird below her right shoulder blade with flowers spiraling downwards, and another bird and flower on her upper right arm. She also has the Dark Mark tattooed on her left-forearm, which she keeps hidden with make-up. Her dark hair and almost chameleon-like eyes are things that makes her stand out as well.
Dressing Style: Piper is a very sophisticated dresser, both in her Muggle wear and her robes. Her robes are always luxurious fabrics and they're all a variety of jewel tones in color. Her Muggle clothing is much more skin-tight, showing off her thin, slightly curvy frame. Her tops are typically low-cut in the back to show off her tattoos or the front to show off her cleavage. She doesn't prefer dresses to pants, wearing whatever happens to suit her at that time. Heels suit her the best, and she is never seen without some sort of jewelry on her.

PERSONALITY

Personality Description: Piper is an interesting character, being incredibly intelligent. She's an excellent teacher, and her students tend to like her. However, she's a bit cruel when it comes right down to it. She is sweet and kind when in the presence of her superiors, and plays the role of the dedicated Hogwarts professor and Order Member when necessary, but she has a mean streak. Piper will show no mercy to those who oppose her, and is sort of like Jezebel's personal attack dog, as well as her fly on the wall. She's also quite the flirt, bedding whomever she pleases whenever she pleases. However, her loyalty is true, unwavering, and she will never turn her back on her companions.
Likes: Divination, teaching, sex, alcohol, feeling powerful, working as a Death Eater, knowing more than everyone else
Dislikes: being criticized, having to keep her mouth shut around the Order Members, getting denied what she wants, people trying to exploit her Inner Eye, disrespectful students, having to stay silent, not having a drink on hand when she wants one
Strengths: Divination, dealing with the after effects of a vision, teaching, torture, luring people in (for sex or otherwise)
Weaknesses: controlling her temper, her physical urges, the after effects of her Inner Eye, her secret double-life as a double-agent, slight alcoholism, slight nymphomania, her selfish nature

BACKGROUND

Mother: Sylvia Ashley Steele (nee Gubanche) - pureblood witch, deceased
Father: Leviticus Alexander Steele - pureblood wizard, deceased
Sibling(s): N/A
Other Important Family: N/A
History: Sylvia and Leviticus were blood traitors, Purebloods who fought for the rights of all. The pair ran off with one another in their seventh year, not finishing their final year at Hogwarts and eloping. They immediately began trying to conceive a child. Piper was born when they both were eighteen. They raised Piper with love and respect, teaching her how to respect everyone, regardless of their blood status. When Piper turned eleven, she was Sorted into Slytherin. Her first year went off without a hitch, though Hogwarts was being rebuilt from the Battle from the year before. When she was seventeen, a fellow witch, who had begun to develop a small following, broke into her house in the dead of night. The witch murdered her parents for being blood traitors, and then turned her wand on Piper. The woman at the young age of eighteen, offered Piper a choice: join, or die. Piper chose life, and was slowly brainwashed into believing that her parents were wrong for defecting, and that the Death Eater’s rising cause was something she believed in.

Piper was able to climb the ranks in growing army quickly, becoming akin to an attack dog. She's been wielding her Inner Eye for the Death Eaters for as long as she can, giving her the upper hand. When she turned twenty-five, she became the Divination professor, as well as joined the Order. She's been working as a double agent for the Death Eaters ever since. She is blinded by the cause and has been brainwashed to a degree - the woman knows what she is doing is wrong, but is far too consumed to realize.
