Isis Redington

Isis is a very peculiar person. Her mother worries about her, although Isis all but denies her mother’s existence --this will be explained later. Ever since she was born she’s had a tendency for the darker things in life. Often, she would examine the dead birds that hit her families home in the posh side of London. She finds death a fascinating subject. A very strange girl as a child and even more so as she entered her teenage years. Most people find her aloof and strange, this is mostly because Isis is not a people person. She is a very self sufficient person and prefers it that way. She doesn’t make any effort to befriend others. Although she does enjoy watching people from a distance, she find that under any given circumstance human nature can be fascinating.

Isis is also sadistic. She takes much pleasure from the discomfort and pain of others. If one where to get badly injured while falling down the steps? Isis would find that priceless and wish she could have been there to see the act. This is also a reason why she doesn’t have many friends.

Another factor of Isis’s personality is her need to control. She has to be in control of anything that involves herself. When things get out of control, she panics and is at a loss of what do to. She needs to at least have a say in anything that directly effects herself. She gets almost paranoid about it.

Isis has a very strong dislike for animals. She only tolerates her owl, since it brings her things it’s useful for communication to the outside world, like her Father. One reason why she hates CoMC. She finds animals filthy and disgusting.

History

Isis was born to Claude and Vanessa Redington in London, England. Claude is a Cursebreaker for Gringotts and is currently working in Egypt. He has always been fascinated by Ancient Egypt, hence why he got Vanessa to agreeing to naming their firstborn Isis, after the Egyptian goddess of fertility. Isis finds that a little weird she was named after that goddess, but is a stoic about it and just goes with it. Claude’s family brought in a ton of gold in the last two generations by extremely smart investing and a tab of good luck, “New Money” if you will. Claude only is a Cursebreaker for the appeal and adventure it offers him. Vanessa is a socialite, as she can afford to be. She was a Lexington, but their family troubles and everything made Vanessa want to leave as soon as possible. She decided the best way to do as such was to marry into money. Claude was the perfect candidate: rich and pureblood. Claude, not knowing any better, thought Vanessa was the greatest and married her right away. As Claude is out of the country more often then not, Vanessa’s true colors really start to show. She has been known to cheat on her husband in his absence. Her youngest daughter, Ariel, is oblivious. Isis, on the other hand, knows or is, at the very least, suspicious of it. Although she may know something, she ignores it. Ariel and Isis were raised by a nanny, as Vanessa isn’t the best mothering type and Claude is rarely home.

Although Claude is seldom home, he brings out the nicer side of Isis. Isis adores her father, he would always being back Ariel and her unique gifts and trinkets from the places he travels. She believes her father can do wrong, she same way Ariel believes their mother can do no wrong. She calls him “Daddy” and he calls him “his little Isis”. He is the reason that Isis turns a blind eye to her mother’s infidelity. If she were to tell her father about Vanessa, Claude would be crushed, at least in Isis’s mind. She doesn’t relies that Claude has his own suspicions (see secrets).

Ariel, Isis’s younger sister is small, blonde and naïve, not to mention sickeningly sweet. She believes anything her mother tells her and is very obedient. She thinks her mother is incapable of doing wrong. Isis thing Ariel is a little mad for thinking so highly of their mother and being the “angel“ of the family, but she still loves her nonetheless. She watches out for her even if doesn’t seem like it. Isis is good at hiding her emotions.

Because Isis always had strange dolls and toys from her father as a child, a fair share of Muggle children thought she was evil and capable of Voodoo. (This is where Isis got the idea of using pretend Voodoo to scare people.) This happened when the girl’s nanny would take them to Muggle parks in London. Isis loved it. She loved creeping out the Muggle children with her unusual toys and some of the stories her father would tell her.

Isis also knows about far more curses and hexes then she ought to. She doesn’t know how to do just about any of them, but she finds the knowledge of knowing about them a powerful thing. The reason she knows about these is because of her father’s job of being a Cursebreaker for Gringotts. Over the years he has picked up a few books about curses and hexes that have been used in Ancient times to protect things. He keeps the books in the Redington’s library for reference and study, but he is unaware that Isis has found them., as according to him, they are hidden. She’s memorized most of what she’s learned in the books just to keep in her head for herself. She’s like a walking library of random facts and the like. Isis isn’t one to share something she feels is important to her., like the random facts she learns from her father’s books.

Relationships

Samantha Jones and Trent Lexington: These two are Isis's first cousins. She doesn't really talk to them much, but she tolerates them well enough.

Eva Kaufman-Slyvester: Isis thinks Eva is fascinating and more or less stalks her.

Slytherin Scorpio

Isis's Date of Birth: November 19th, 1989

hat is said of Slytherins born under all other signs is doubly true of Slytherins born under Scorpio. (Or was it that what is said of Scorpios is doubly true of Scorpios sorted into Slytherin?) There is no middle ground here - these wizards can embody all that is the very best in the world... or all that is the very worst. They are heroes, or they are villains. They are attracted to the dark, twisted, and forbidden mysteries of the world from the day they are born, and only they can determine whether they will study the dark arts in order to oppose them, or to embrace them. However, as Scorpio is a sign of transformation and regeneration, it is not impossible for even the most evil of dark wizards to turn to the path of good... Scorpio Slytherins have uncanny wisdom, insight into human psychology, and high "emotional IQ's." They are incredibly ambitious, often exist in a state of total ego, and if misused or hurt, can nurse the wound and seethe for decades. Still, although they are often tempted to do horrible things in the name of glory or discovery, they nevertheless are often the kindest, most compassionate, and most forgiving people of all, for they have seen their own inner darkness, faced it, and do not run from it when they encounter it in others.
