**Felicity "Flick" Charlotte Black** (b. 1980) was an English Pureblood witch born to Sirius Black, Remus Lupin and Charlotte Potter. Flick's mother, Charlotte, was killed by Peter Pettigrew when she was watching him being confronted by Sirius. When Pettigrew set off the Blasting Curse that he used to fake his own death, Sirius was falsely imprisoned for the crime. Unable to cope with looking after Flick on his own Remus took her to live with her cousins, Andromeda and Ted Tonks.

Flick began attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in 1991 and was Sorted into Gryffindor. She soon became close friends with fellow students Harry Potter, Ron Weasley and later Hermione Granger. Together, they made the Golden Quartet and faced many challenges during their adolescence, including protecting the Philosopher's Stone, rescuing Ginny Weasley from the Basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets, saving Sirius from Dementors, and guiding Harry through the Triwizard Tournament

Flick helped form Dumbledore's Army and fought in numerous battles of the Second Wizarding War. These battles included the Battle of the Department of Mysteries (1996), during which she lost her father, Sirius, the Battle of the Astronomy Tower (1997), and the Battle of the Seven Potters (1997).

While Ron and Hermione accompanied Harry in the search for Voldemort's Horcruxes, Flick went back to Hogwarts and co-led the D.A. during her final year in opposition to the Death Eater professors. She was later kidnapped and taken to Malfoy Manor where she escaped moments before she was to be executed. The Death Eaters told the Wizarding World that Flick was dead anyway and she had to go into hiding and only revealed herself when Dobby told her that Harry, Ron and Hermione had been taken to Malfoy Manor themselves and together they went to help them escape.

She fought in the Battle of Hogwarts, during which she lost her father, Remus Lupin, step-mother and cousin, Nymphadora Tonks, and her boyfriend, Fred Weasley. During the Battle, having refused Voldemort's invitation to join the Death Eaters, she destroyed the seventh and final Horcrux when she beheaded the snake Nagini, and killed Augustus Rookwood in revenge for him taking Fred's life.

After the war, Flick became a Curse-Breaker and married Neville Longbottom.
