| - | David Bertrade (Father): David comes from an English pureblood family. Anora is very close to her father, as he is her true parent and she becamse very attached to him after her mother left when she was three. She was very wary of Lorraine when she married her Dad, and she drew closer to her father as a result. He has always been caring and loving towards his two children, and has always been quite lenient with Anora as he has always felt rather guilty for Anora's mother taking off on them, as it was mainly his own fault. | + | *David Bertrade (Father): David comes from an English pureblood family.

She married David when Anora was four, and has always loved Anora like her own child. Anora was wary of her when she first met her, but eventually Lorraine won her over with sheer love and kindness, and Anora came to call her 'Mom' as if she was her own. Always the socialite parent, she was the one throwing the lavish parties and booking up the social schedule. Although she is not an elitist like the general populace of the pureblooding society, she doesn't mind their company. However, she generally socializes with the 'blood traitors' of the pureblood type, as her family is considered one due to the fact that she is married to one. | + | *Lorraine Bertrade (Step-Mother): Grew up on the island of Corsica, and comes from a French pureblood family.

Although Anora was afraid of him when she first met him, she now can't remember a time where the two of them haven't been close. She goes to Dominic for EVERYTHING and there are little to no secrets between the two of them. They have a very solid relationship and they counter-balance eachother very well. | + | *[[Dominic Bertrade]] (Half-brother): Anora's 17 year old half-brother and conscience.

| - | Maurice Bertrade (Grandfather): Anora spent every summer with her grandfather before her years at Hogwarts. Choosing to live out the remainder of his life in a Muggle village after the death of his wife, Bernard took to his granddaughter as a companion and student. He taught her about Muggles and the way they live, but always making the experience fun and entertaining for the small child. When Anora was eleven and visiting her grandfather in his small cottage outside of Llanidloes, Wales, a man broke into the residence and murdered him, leaving Anora alive. (The reasoning for this is that the man was Anora's uncle, her mother's brother, and his original intentions were to kidnap Anora and bring her to her mother, but he killed Maurice in a moment of hatred and left in a hurry afterwards, forgetting about Anora. I blame his insanity and rash behaviour on the incest ;D) Anora took the death of her grandfather very hard. | + | *Maurice Bertrade (Grandfather): Anora spent every summer with her grandfather before her years at Hogwarts.

Anora Bertrade
Nora loves anything that involves doing something completely random that will more than likely baffle the rest of the student body. Pranking is generally one of the more amusing aspects of her life, as well as dressing up in random costumes and running amok in the hallways. She is very lighthearted and able to bounce back from negative things that happen in her life. She's never been one to hold grudges against people, and tends to believe in the best of people, until they reach the point where she believes them a lost cause, and will most likely hex them on their way out. She is passionately loyal towards her friends, and will jump to their defences if they're in trouble. Despite being the baby of the family, and always surrounded by her family, Anora is independant, and has trouble letting other people do things for her. She doesn't like having people do things for her in anything school-related because she is somewhat of an academic control freak. Schoolwork is probably one of the only situations in her life which Anora takes seriously.
Strengths
Anora is a bright, hardworking individual. She is aspiring to become an Auror, so her grades must be at a high level if she wants to achieve that goal. Her best subjects are DADA, Transfigurations, and Charms. She has quick reflexes, and is able to think on her feet.
She is a gifted flyer, and knows how to play Quidditch well. She is a dancer (her parents put her in lessons at a young age and she still takes them in the summer.) She is an outgoing individual, self-confident, however a little headstrong and determined, and at times she will not back down without a fight. However, if she knows she’s fighting for a lost cause, she'll most likely let up.
Weaknesses
Anora tends to act before she thinks; she’s impulsive to a degree that is not always wise. She’s a troublemaker, and she tends to disregard the rules if there’s an opportunity to do something outrageous that will stupefy the entire student body.
Anora is also quite naive, despite what she thinks. She'll always choose to believe in the best of people, even if they've betrayed her in the past. As a child, she was kept in a very sheltered environment with her secluded manor outside of Bristol, and never had to experience 'reality.' She is just beginning to learn that there are people in the world that are evil simply because they choose to be. The deaths of her grandfather and Kiriaki have been major catalysts for this realization of hers. It will still be a while until Anora fully understands and comprehends that not everybody in the universe has a compassionate side.
History
Anora was born to Constance and David Bertrade. The two were married shortly after a period of time where Constance was said to be in an arranged marriage within another pureblooding family (it was all staged,). An older, more wealthy pureblooding family, as David’s family are said to be blood-traitors as David’s father lived (he’s now dead, bless his soul) in a Muggle village and David was brought up in a Muggle village.
During the five month period of time where Constance and David were forbidden to see each other, David had a relationship with Lorraine Montague, a French pureblood witch and conceived a child, Dominic. Lorraine and David broke up before Lorraine even knew about Dominic, however, when she decided to move to Corsica when her mother became ill and needed someone to take care of her. David had loved Lorraine, but he couldn’t leave Britain because of his career as a Cursebreaker.
Constance and David eventually wed due to some family arrangements, and Anora was born just two years after Dominic. Lorraine wrote to David shortly after Dominic was born, saying that he didn’t need to do anything, only that she wanted him to see his son. David of course wanted to see his son, and Constance was informed immediately, the five of them (Anora and Dominic included) were content with their little family arrangement. Lorraine visited frequently with Dominic, but she still loved David, and David still held feelings for her. Constance sensed these feelings, and grew maddeningly jealous. She does not try to harm her family members, because she loves her daughter greatly, but she returns to her family, and is immediately accepted into her old family, and is branded a Death Eater. Anora doesn’t know this of course, she only knows that her mother had left when she was very young. She has no idea about her mother or her mother’s family, it’s never been an issue because a month after Constance left, David married Lorraine, and Lorraine was a loving mother to both the children, never treating Anora any differently than her daughter, and Anora grew up calling Lorraine “Mother” because she was four when Lorraine and David re-married. She found that her biological mother was in fact not Lorraine when she was thirteen, but she didn’t think of it any differently, in her opinion, Lorraine has always, and will always be Anora’s mother.
(ETA: In game, Anora's true mother has contacted her, so I'm not sure if that's completely relevant, but I figured I may as well insert it here for personal purposes.)
During her childhood, Anora loved spending time with her Grandfather who lived in a nearby Muggle village. Her brother, Dominic, visited occasionally as well, but Anora had a special bond with her Grandfather. They were both fascinated by Muggle life, and often went to the cinema and the like. When Anora was eleven, in the summer before she attended Hogwarts, she witnessed the death of her Grandfather by a man she didn't recognize. She was spared for some reasons unbeknownst to her, but she has sworn revenge on whomever killed him and this event plays a major part in her passion to become an Auror.

The Geminis Interact with the environment, investigate, learn, know and exchang ideas. The intellect dominates Gemini, and all things intellectual are valued greatly by them. As communication is also of importance to Geminis, knowledge is never a thing to be hoarded. Rarely is a Gemini more entertained than in the midst of exchanging ideas with others of an intellectual nature.
Being the most versatile of the signs, Geminis are seldom what they seem to be. Chameleon like, they will take a stand, voice an opinion, decide on an option and then completely change their mind tomorrow. Nothing is ever written in stone by the Gemini. They are truly a free soul, driven by curiosity and a desire to know . They usually have several things going at once, and within such chaos, they thrive.
Geminis are bright, witty, entertaining and rarely get deeply absorbed in any one task. They prefer to skim the surface of many things, than to get deeply involved in any one particular interest.Even if they do become drawn into something, they always feel they are missing out something. Anything they haven't touched intrigue them the most. On the turn of a moment, Gemini can become cynical, biting, moody and quickly angered. Inseparable as two sides of a coin, those born in this sign can be dazzling and irresistible or inconstant and irrational.Once something is familiar , the interest wears thin and the need for new worlds to investigate grows strong again. Geminis are fickle. This is not intentional, it is their basic nature to be so.
