Sirius Black

==Summary==
Sirius Black was an English pure-blood wizard, the older son of Orion and Walburga Black, and the brother of Regulus Black. Although he was the heir of the House of Black, Sirius disagreed with his family's belief in blood purity and defied tradition when he was Sorted into Gryffindor House instead of Slytherin at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. As Sirius' relationship with his relatives deteriorated, he became friends with James Potter, Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew. The four friends, also known as the Marauders, joined the Order of the Phoenix to fight against Lord Voldemort and his Death Eaters during the First Wizarding War. Sirius was named the godfather of Harry Potter, the only son of James and Lily Potter. When Pettigrew betrayed the Potters to Voldemort, Sirius sought to exact revenge on Pettigrew. However, Pettigrew was able to frame Sirius for his betrayal of the Potters, the murder of twelve Muggles, and the staged murder of Pettigrew before Sirius could accomplish this. Sirius was sent to Azkaban, and after twelve years became the only known person to escape the prison unassisted by transforming into his Animagus form of a massive black dog. Sirius exposed Pettigrew's treachery to his old friend Remus and his godson. After Lord Voldemort returned in 1995, Sirius rejoined the Order. He was murdered by his cousin Bellatrix Lestrange during the Battle of the Department of Mysteries and subsequently cleared of all charges by the Ministry of Magic, though he was too late to enjoy his freedom.

Intelligence: Extremely Gifted. According to Minerva McGonagall, Sirius Black and James Potter were the two most talented students at Hogwarts. Always appeared to be extremely casual before examinations. Was described to be bored at the exams and claimed that he would be surprised if he didn't get an "Outstanding" in his Charms OWL. Did not bother to study for Transfiguration, as he claimed that he "knew all that rubbish". Achieved good grades despite not studying hard for exams and spent a lot of time playing pranks on others and ending up in detention.
Weaknesses: Extremely reckless, immature and even downright irresponsible. Risked getting caught by the Ministry of Magic merely because he was bored in his house. Arrogant and too casual in combat, such as when he taunted Bellatrix Lestrange to do better which ultimately led to his demise. Has an explosive temper, as demonstrated when he shredded the portrait of the Fat Lady when he was not allowed access into the Gryffindor dormitory.
