hair color, Brown/Black
eye color, Olive green, now appear grey
height, six feet six inches
weight, one hundred eighty pounds
general appearance Rodolphus proudly stands 6’6” above the ground- his height always making him stand out in a crowd ever since adolescence. Olive green eyes, once filled with life, seem now empty and just on rare occasions actual emotion reaches them. He avoided madness but there is significant damage in the depths of his soul and it can be seen in his eyes when he let his guard down. His hair is still of a dark-brown color but now some black. Rodolphus’ aristocratic features are well defined and time and hardship hadn’t erased the old privileged good looks characteristic of those members of one of the oldest wizarding families now in the way to extinction. He’s still captivating in a dangerous way. Several scars, some earned during his eventful childhood, adorn the pale skin with ease. In particular there is a large scar on the inside of his right arm and while only a thin white line remains he believes it never healed properly and there are certain days in which the pain returns.

overall personality,
It was never easy to be the first born and heir to the family fortune- the constant weight on his shoulders forced him to become two different individuals: an actual human being with hopes and dreams and a solid block of thick ice that was everything a pureblood should had been. Traits of his second personality remain, such as his ability to express himself openly regardless of the opinions of those surrounding him- always making use of his sharp intelligence and the certainty that he is truly standing a step higher than everyone else- especially those with tainted blood. He is one of the last examples belonging to a breed of men that are not seen often nowadays. The first ones also remain but most of the time are hidden beneath the second ones.

The apparent indifference and detachment from human emotion acts like a shield. He does not expect kindness and gentle words from the outside world. The rejection and fear that people still show at the mention of his name is to be expected- he knows and accepts that he made terrible choices in his youth and committed equally terrible crimes in the name of pureblood supremacy. Rodolphus owes no explanations to the world expect to a selected number of people. The several loses in his life had left him reluctant to accept new friendships and earning his trust is rather difficult if not almost impossible. Despite his perfect control, that still strikes as eerie sometimes, there are times in which Rodolphus suffers from sudden panic attacks that are triggered (most of the time) by repressed memories of his past. He does his best effort to control it but he does not always succeed. His emotions are strongly tied to his ability to perform magic and more than once he has lost control of the last one when suffering one of those episodes. Strong and proud he had not allowed the world to see him in such estate- trusting that in time he will be capable of controlling what he currently considers one of his biggest weaknesses.

He never believed massive destruction and murder was the solution and more than once had wished he could have done things different. He feels remorse for the damage he caused and those he tortured and killed had not been forgotten, constant companions in his life until today. Even if sometimes the burden of his crimes becomes unbearable he prefers to feel the pain instead of not feeling anything at all. He still fights against his own rotten blood and refuses to become the man that gave him life. Of course he is just a human being and he cannot erase all the bad and evil that lurks inside him.

the history

mother & family, Rosemary Dolohov
father &family, Renault Lestrange
Antonin Dolohov (Maternal Cousin)
siblings, Rbastian Lestrange, 6th year, Slytherin
overall history, Rodolphus was the first born to Renault Lestrange and Rosemary Dolohov. His brother Rabastan was born only a year later and during their chaotic and difficult childhood the two of them became inseparable- trait that continued during most of their adult life. Renault was a cruel, sadistic man who never allowed him to be the one to make his own choices in life and any attempt from his son to achieve some level of liberty was quickly ended with a rather constant display of violence- both mental and physical.

Due to his father’s nasty temper and lack of heart, Rodolphus assumed the role of protector inside his home and it wasn’t unusual to see him wearing bruises and suffering the pain of broken bones when he opted to be Renault’s punching bag in order to save both his younger brother and caring mother from the wizard’s wrath. His only comfort while growing up was the love his mother offered him and the support and friendship given to him by his two closest friends: Evan and Angelica Rosier. They, no luckier than him, became Rodolphus’ main support and gave him the love and encouragement he needed to continue while he did the same for them in exchange.

Hogwarts became an escape from his father but if only momentary Rodolphus had to admit he spent the best years of his life behind the tall walls of the ancient castle. He was sorted into Slytherin and despite all managed to make good friends and have a comfortable life almost, until of his seventh and final year at school when he could no longer avoid the future waiting for him. As a young man, Rodolphus had been indoctrinated to despise everyone who was not a pureblood but the truth was that despite believing he was indeed better than most he did not think they should be haunted and exterminated. He never wanted to be a loyal servant to the Dark Lord and always kept the foolish hope of finding a way to escape a horrible fate.

♥ CJ. Youuu happened to have included information about after his graduation. I don't suppose this is a reused application? XD

You'll have to tidy that up a bit before we can accept you.
