Bio:


you got a feelin', IT'S ALECTRIC.
Full Name: Alecto Carrow Nicknames:Age/Birthday: February 14th, 1951 House and Years Attended: Slytherin/ 1971-1978 Blood Status: Pureblood. Line of Greeks. Occupation: Student Alliance: Death Eaters Boggart: Her father grabbing her. Patronus: An Antelope. (She's never casted it before, this is hypothetical.) Personality Alecto is a bunch of insecurities, complexities and pieces and parts of fake self combined. When she was young, her brother forced her do and say mean things. She created this pseudo anger that ended up staining itself on her, she'd pretend to have a temper to get approval from her father and brother. Her anger is more or less full of blunt, cruel words that is meant to hurt or offend other people. She despises acting like this, it makes me uneasy and some people believe she has multiple personalities because she acts one way and then other. Alecto uses this to get people away from her, she assumes nobody likes her anyway and thus has no qualms on saying something they don't want to hear. Put it bluntly, as they say. There isn't much to her other than her quickness and her mouth, she isn't particularly big or strong and adapted. The "real" Alecto, that most see now, is a reclusive, unsocial loner who seems to have no real experience with people or the opposite sex. She's never bothered to like a boy or even think of liking someone, her mentality forces her to think that she's unattractive and unwanted. She believes that most people are liars and fakes to her face, she is extremely untrusting and once you've crossed her ability to trust you, she will never give it again. She's strongly opinionated in her mind, but can be forced to change her mind by putting her in situations that she can't react to; like human, close interaction. She loses her ability to think straight, her mind is to concentrated on what is currently happening. This is something that she has always wanted but could never truly give or receive and she'd be likely to hesitate if she was ever put in that position. Mostly keeping to herself, she's always suspicious and "in her head" when in thought. I know most of her personality sounds far-fetched and strange but it works out when she's with people. Alecto is very much a Slytherin, showing her ambition to only taking her ideas, letting someone else take the fall for her actions if applicable. If she had to ruin a few lives a little along the way, she didn't care. After all, if none of them cared for her, why would she care for them? She has alot of contradicting behaviour because of being mentally confused on how she WANTS to act and how she is really acting. While she may be a lot of bad things, but most of her good quirks make up for it. She attempts to do nice things when nobody is looking, feel the need to be attentive when other people need it and do things that aren't very fun for her. She also tries hard to impress everyone with her wits, smart mouth and quick movements. It is unknown if people are impressed but she honestly would like to know.
Appearance: Alecto has a heavy face and a jaw, keeping high ears and medium height cheek bones. She had vibrant green eyes and slightly thin lips in a mixture with her jaw makes her very plain looking and hardly elegant at all like most purebloods. The only thing that is particularly nice about her face is the fact that she is incredibly pale has never broken out like most teenagers do. Alecto tends to look strange because she used to be so overweight and didn't diet the way people should. She stands at five foot three with a thin, unshapely build, slightly wide hips that makes her look boyish due to the fact that she doesn't have breasts proportional for her body. She doesn't have the muscle mass she used to have anymore and doesn't seem to care to, but the scowl she wore in school is always present on her face, even into adult-hood. Alecto doesn't look like a pleasant person to be around just by looking at her. Alecto would tend to remind you of the girl at work that always tried NOT talk and only pretended to be nice when it appeared to be in her benefit, while appearing most submissive. She walk with her arms straight and doesn't sway them like normal people do, frequently crossing them when she feels like she needs to be protected. She wears a lot of layers of clothing and seems to be much wider than she really is. Usually having horrible fashion; Long skirts, long coats, heavy sweaters and usually flat thick shoes that makes her feet look big. It's clear that she doesn't care about herself very much or what she looks like to anyone. Alecto always had to wear clothes that made her look stupid and due to that, she buys clothes that never match but are always dark, cold colours as she'd never dress in white. She has one defining mark on her body, along the top side of her right forearm is a long scar that goes nearly down to her wrist. It's a burn from her brother that was a punishment when she was in school, keeping it to herself and never wearing clothes that made it obvious. Alecto's hair is flat, lank and black with no style and looks trifling like it needs to be pulled back. Of course, she wears it loose which causes her to look like she wants to hide her face in her hair. Sexuality: Heterosexual Hobbies: Chess, Dueling Biography: The original line came straight from Greece and while Alecto wasn't born there, her father surely was. It used to be a strong, rich line with many other Greek names to following along side of it. Much to the her father's disappointment, it became slightly diluted by lesser names. While still pure were not exactly "Carrow material". He moved to the U.K in search of a wife as his own blood was very connected and bordered on near incest, ironically he ended up marrying someone he was related to anyways out of fear. The Carrow family started with just Achilles and his wife, although a first cousin, Rosemarie. The two of them had their first child, Amycus, who was almost three years apart from Alecto. The pregnancies were hard on the family and upon Alecto's birth, Rosemarie died of complications shortly after. Amycus and Achilles took it incredibly hard and found fault with the youngest daughter and Achilles wanted nothing to do with her. He was upset that he'd lost his wife and would have to do the child-watching on his own. Amycus was often forced to take care of his sister, changing her diapers and feeding her. When he needed help, he owled one of his Aunts or Uncles(Achilles is one of seven siblings.) to come by and show him what to do. Amycus was frequently annoyed with Alecto and often refused to take care of her when she got older. He was always angry and this lead to her getting pushed around by her father and brother because there was nobody to pay attention to her. Eventually they offered cruel treatment when she kept asking for attention, even going as far as putting tape over her mouth. Her childhood was spent being told that she needed to "man-up" and it was even to the point to where she wore men's clothing. While they were often mean and sometimes cruel, Alecto never spoke a word of it in public. She is in denial of how she's being treated because she knows no better. Achilles was ashamed of himself for ignoring her, but looking at her reminded him of Rosemarie. Achilles ordered Amycus to yell at her to be more aggressive and then told not to be, for a child this was very confusing. Her personality is a little explosive, not by temper but by unpredictability. She might say something mean or she might take it, if she's encouraged then she'd keep it up and when she's not, she is silent. Alecto's behaviour made her socially awkward and she often fell behind when it came to trying to be friends with others. When it came time for Amycus to leave for school, she wanted to go as well because she felt left out. During the year that Amycus was gone for school, she stole her fathers books and forced herself to reading them as difficult as they might have been. While this seemed very strange for a child to do, she was adamant on showing that she was just as smart as he was. When she had one year left before she could attend, she wrote a letter to the Head Master and explained her situation. She believed she could go to school one year earlier than she needed to, thus she was given permission. The Headmaster believed that because the gesture was made by her alone and without her parental supervision that she be allowed to enter a year early. Upon going to school, Amycus showed his bully-like behaviour with others and she followed suit because he told her to. People were unsure if she was really in her right mind because she often did things to contradict her severe want for schooling, but in her first few years she had only decent marks. Alecto's companions were often Amycus' and she was often saw as the boring girl of the group. There was a moment when Alecto was just turning thirteen and he almost sixteen, the two of them weren't getting along and had started fighting like siblings do. It ended with him kissing her with a light brush of his hand on her arm, it's unknown why he did this instead of something else. Alecto had since tried to avoid being alone with him, she succeeds.
