Sirius Black

Possessing a striking appearance and magnetic personality, he adored being the center of attention and wasn't afraid to break the rules. Sirius idolized James Potter and made incredible sacrifices for his friends—for example, becoming an Animagus to help Remus Lupin endure his werewolf transformations. His bravery bordered on arrogance. He was prone to rather cruel, and sometimes even cruel, jokes, especially directed at Severus Snape. Raised in a family of fanatical purebloods, Sirius rejected the ideals of the Dark Arts and found his true "family" in the Marauders.
