SIRENA ● RUMUR ● RYDELL
if you're out on a moonlit night, be careful of them neighbourhood strays,
of a lady with long black hair, trying to win you with her feminine ways.
crystal ball on the table showing the future, the past,
same cat with them evil eyes, you better get out of there fast!
THIRTY FIVE ● ADVANCED POTIONS PROFESSOR
SORRY, NOT QUITE. SO WHAT ARE AND AREN'T YOU INTO ?
"Hmm... my likes? Well I obviously like politics, history and potions or I would never have majored in those subjects. I am a bit of a sucker for torture, though not many people would see that, and I can be considered a little bit cold and cruel but I definately like to keep people at a distance, few people need to know the real me and I shall keep it that way. I like being independant and I like teaching, though I would never admit it. My favourite thing, however, is to act how others expect me NOT to act. Oh and the dark arts!
Dislikes you say? I can't stand arrogant students who think they no more than the teacher, I cannot stand people who are too clingy and too chatty and feel that they have to engage you in every conversation. I cannot stand people who pretend to be what they are not nor those who try to be something else just to please the rest of the world. I hate marking essays and homework and would rather bin the lot of it, it's not up to standards anyway. I hate mornings and my biggest hate? Mondays!"
HOW ER... INTERESTING. EVER LOOKED INTO THE MIRROR OF ERISED ?
"Sirena's main dream is to be able to study the dark arts without fear of persecution. She has been enthralled by the arts, captivated by them, and she cannot escape it."[/size]
WHAT MAKES YOU SHAKE IN YOUR BOOTS ?
"Mice, Clowns and Rats are the main fears that Sirena has (though she hides it well) her biggest fear, however, is a fear of enclosed spaces, also known as claustrophobia. Most people do not notice this unless she has to enter a crowded room (that is packed wall to wall) or walk in cupboards and closets."[/size]
EVEN YOU HAVE TO HAVE SOME GOOD QUALITIES, RIGHT ?
"Sirena has few strengths, mainly because she has worked so hard to perfect those that she has. She is talented when it comes to Politics, Potions and History and is definately talented at the Dark Arts. She has spent years perfecting these skills, mostly in secret to avoid detection. Her biggest strength, however, is her ability to hide behind a carefully calculated mask that prohibits anyone from viewing the real her unless she desires it. Each person sees a different thing and its always what she wants them to see."[/size]
AND IT'S QUITE OBVIOUS YOU HAVE YOUR BAD, HUH ?
"Sirena's main weakness, and the one that would ultimately lead to her downfall if it were known, is the fact she is so engrossed in the dark arts that it has become the equivilent to an addiction. Other weaknesses include her inability to keep her temper in check and her thoughts to herself, especially when she has been riled up. Well placed insults to her family do this the best. Sirena has the opinion that she is right and is stubborn to the point that she rarely admits she is wrong, even when she knows that she is."[/size]
LET'S GET DIRTY. WHAT TURNS YOU ON ?
"Dark and Mysterious men and women have always attracted Sirena. The more powerful they are, the better. She tends to turn away from those who are weak or have no sense of themselves."[/size]
DO YOU LOVE YOUR FAMILY ?
"Sirena is the youngest child and was overly spoilt as a child. Her parents Lucifer Rydell (70) and Zilla (Draconis) Rydell (65) are only children and her brother Mordred (40) is just as sadistic as she is, which leads them to get along well. Mordred's wife; Ethelinda (Wayland) Rydell (32) and his children Trenton (17), Judas (14) and Esmerelda (11) are not quite on the same level as their aunt and father. Sirena holds little love for her family in the true sense of the word and sees them more as companions. She was raised in a cold environment and seems to mimic that though there is no denying that she cares about her family."[/size]
WHERE YA FROM, BY THE WAY ?
"Sirena was born Sirena Rumur Rydell, the second child and only daughter of Lucifer and Zilla (Draconis) Rydell. She as a spoilt child though she was raised in a rather cold environment with little love between her parents and herself. She grew close to her brother rather quickly and their bond was, at one stage, considered inappropriate, though it never bordered into anything more than an extreme protection of the other (despite what the rest of the world will believe). The air that each gave off seemed to be that of a physical attraction to the other but was nothing more than just an intense desire to discover who was truely loyal to them and who was not. When she was five, Sirena showed her first sign of magic. She was in the back garden and was irritated at the fact her Nanny had been berating her for 'not acting like a lady'. In retaliation she sent multiple sticks flying at the woman's face, one caught in her eye and blinded her permanently.[/size]
Sirena's childhood involved many forays into the dark arts, most because of her family's dark nature, rebellion and an intense dislike of things she did not consider normal. She appeared stuck up for most of her school years and often sent others running in the opposite direction either from fear, hatred or uncertainty about the young witch. She was a manipulative person who jumped from boy to boy, breaking hearts and cheating, something that gave her a rather... questionable... reputation. Following this she had one proper relationship that lasted all of four weeks with a boy by the name of Steven Proctor. When she finally got into college she tied herself down with three majors; politics, potions and history. It took a while but she finally graduated each with distinction and went on to teach History when the former professor retired. She has been in the post for a few years now and knows of the whispers that travel the school about her being dark, being a bitch and anything else that the students feel like making up about her."
THE DEMENTORS ARE HERE. WHAT DO YOU THINK OF ?
"the day she had gotten left behind (while her nanny was shopping) just outside the entrance of Knockturn Alley when she was around eight. It was close to nightfall and those of questionable reputation had come out. Her father got to her just in time."[/size]
BETTER GETUP A PATRONUS. WHAT ARE YOU REMEMBERING ?
"the day she first discovered the dark arts and how captivating they could be. its not a happy memory so it cannot be sucked from her but it is the most content that she has felt and is strong enough to aid her in producing her patronus."[/size]
