Back Story: 

Right, like you don't all know my entire life's history... bloody groupies. I'm not getting into the specifics of it because wank off, that's why.

My mum and dad were cousins and got married, because they think that's a normal sodding thing to do. It was all in the name of "keeping the bloodline pure" which really just means your kids'll end up with, at best, the Habsburg jaw or Lestrange nose, and at worst...well, let's just say some of the sprog these families end up with look more like they mated with a house elf rather than their spouse. It's lucky then that me and Reg came out as dashing as we did, and one of us even had brain enough to learn to think for ourselves. I was amazing from the start but my family couldn't recognize it because they're all a bunch of sodding racists and wanted me to be their clone, so when I was sixteen I told them to sod off and I moved in with my mate James and his folks, Charlus and Dorea. If you thought I was getting tail before, just imagine how much the birds threw themselves at me once I was deemed a runaway. 

I met James, Peter, and Remus at school, and since we're all bloody brilliant wizards, we formed a little gang and called ourselves the Marauders. We were pretty popular in school; Kings of Gryffindor house. There were, of course, some blokes who didn't like us, but they were mostly greasy gits or people my parents would have approved of (like my brother's friends), which meant they could all go take a flying leap off the Astronomy tower. I preferred to spend my time with a cooler sort, and we had some good times. We had so many hijinks going on that we had to develop a whole sodding map to keep track of where everyone was so none of the professors or prefects caught on - James and Remus not withstanding. The rest of us even became animagi to help Moony out whenever it was his time of the month. Yeah, a runaway non-registered animagus with brains like Einstein and a heart of sodding gold? I've got birds and blokes throwing their pants at me like it's the second coming of the Beatles. 

Post-graduation, I tried my hand at the auror program, mostly out of respect for Prongs' dad, Charlus, and his long-time career in the MLE, but that whole law and order rubbish just doesn't sit right with me. A cops a cop, even if they're supposedly hunting dark wizards. Did you know you can do that sh*t on your own? Yeah, its called being a bad ass. So I dropped out of the academy after a few months and I'm mostly living off the inheritance from Uncle Alphard, but I also work part time at a muggle record shop. I paid Reg 20 galleons to tell our folks about my newfound career near the front window of the house so I could watch their heads explode when they found out. Worth every knut. The Marauders have also all joined up with our old Headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, to fight in the war against wankers like my parents. My auror training comes in handy, even if its incomplete, not to mention my super secret undocumented magical powers. I'm basically this war's best hope. You're bloody welcome, humanity.

I'm to be the best man at Prongs' and Lily's wedding (and I'll be stealing the damn show - I clean up nicely) and they're naming their first born after me. They don't know it yet, don't even think they're pregnant yet, but it's definitely happening. I got a place of my own after Lily joined the family because as much as I love Charlus and Dorea, I didn't want to live with them once James moved out. And Lily had the audacity to tell me I couldn't live over their garage. Can you believe her? So yeah, I've got a place of my own now thanks to some money my uncle left me; a nice little bachelor pad in Manchester. The Potters will always be like my parents, and Prongs, Wormtail, and Moony are my real family. Oh and Evans now, too. And if Reg ever manages to escape our family's grip, he knows he's always got a safe place with me, though it doesn't look like the idiot's going to come 'round anytime soon.

APPEARANCE

Height: 6ft 3 in

Hair: Dark brown

Eyes: Brown

Style/Other characteristics: Sirius is rarely seen without his black leather jacket, equipped with spikes and anarchist patches. He prefers muggle fashion, jeans, band T's, and heavy black boots. He has several tattoos, paints his nails black, and spends more time than he'd ever admit getting his hair as big as possible in that "I don't care" style.

 

TEMPERAMENT

Disowning your family doesn't necessarily make you more mature, as Sirius can attest. Pulling pranks on friends and enemies alike, Sirius is quite fond of laughing and making others laugh. He doesn't mind being the butt of the joke so long as it was a joke orchestrated out of merriment. On a dare from his mate Peter, he legally changed his middle name to Lee so that he could be "taken Siriusly" as an adult - it was his 17th birthday gift to himself (plus a motorbike).

Sirius is truly good at heart but as a teenager he's a rebellious little sh*t. Asking the sorting hat to place him in Gryffindor (or really any house other than Slytherin) just to let his father know he didn't own him, was only the first step in a long walk of rebellious acts. He has such a problem with authority that only Albus Dumbledore can really get him to fall in line (a trait that was getting him in all sorts of trouble as an Auror-in-Training and may have contributed to him dropping out).

MAGIC

Wand: rowan, unicorn tail hair, fifteen inches

Boggart:  Himself aligned with his family's beliefs - his eyes would be black and he'd be standing over his cousin Andromeda's dead body

Patronus:  Black Dog - He learned to conjure his patronus while still at Hogwarts, an impressive feat for a teenager but just another day in the lives of the Marauders. His happiest memory would be when his best mate's mum invited him to live with them.
