Description
Lille Lestrange was once described as one of the nastiest and unpleasant girls to be found at Hogwarts. She rarely conversed with people outside her 'group,' mainly consisting of her now-husband Rabastan Lestrange and considered herself above everyone but him. It was not rare to see her chatting with and, perhaps, setting up Elita Montague, Cora Mulciber and Rosalind Bletchley. She did not care much for her dormmates, Aggie Flint and Zaria Nettles, save the latter until they were nearly out of school.
Now, however, she is most often found at her coastal home in Dorset, spending time with Mireille (and Rabastan, as often as his career will allow.) and terrorising the governess.
As for physicality, Lille is petite, standing at just five feet, three inches tall and weighing no more than 100 pounds (possibly more, considering she's only just had a baby.) She is constantly dressed very well, even in her around-the-house things, and would never be caught in anything resembling Muggle clothing. Her hair is very fair, her eyes are a pretty shade of blue, and her face often looks bored or mischievous.
Character History
After OotP (June '03–July '05 / October '75–December '77)
Lille was first picked up as a character in April of 2004 (September of 1976, game time.) It was then that she was establishing herself as a snooty typical Slytherin girl who reacted badly to Muggle drugs, but who also had a penchant for arrogant loner-types, specifically Rabastan Lestrange. She met several times with Walden Macnair, who was visiting his sister quite often, and had run-ins with Will Wigworthy, who broke her nose playing with a football at the side of the castle. It wasn't such a terrible loss, though, as far as Lille was concerned, as that was the first time Rabastan "really" seemed to warm up to her.

For Player Knowledge (FPK)
General Knowledge of Hogwarts Students:
Seventh year Slytherin girl, quite possibly the meanest (at least outwardly so) person in the school, though she's mellowed out quite a bit since winter holidays. They would know that she is always with Rabastan and perhaps even that she's engaged to him if they cared enough to pay attention. They might observe that she looks a little odd in that she looks like a doll (thanks to one of the secrets listed below), save for the near-permanent sneer.
General Knowledge of Year/Housemates:
Her yearmates would know just how nasty she can be, and the extents of it, as they are normally the ones at the brunt of her ...attacks, for lack of a better word. They would know that she is a bright girl but rarely applies herself and they would know that she doesn't like to get her hands dirty. They might also notice her eating habits, which are next to nothing.
Housemates would know that she is rarely without Rabastan and when she is, it is usually because they're revising (or, rather, he is.)
General Knowledge of Dormmates:
They would know that Lille is a very light sleeper and that, some nights, she doesn't even sleep in the room. They would know that she is incredibly organized and knows the place of each piece of clothing and jewelry in her trunk and in her jewelry box. They would also know that slimy and crawly things creep her out, as I'm sure they've run across them at one point or another. They would probably also know that she used to be quite nice, if a bit bratty, but changed drastically as she tried harder and harder to impress Rabastan. They would know that her favorite color is blue, as she went through a blue phase in the first half of third year where everything she wore outside of her school uniform was a shade of pale blue. They would know that she can't sleep without a cup of hot tea, preferably with one sugar and a splash of cream.
Rabastan:
There are only a few things he doesn't know about her, so it'll be easier to list those. He doesn't know about the music she likes to listen to and he doesn't know about the charms and potions applied to her as a child to keep her pretty. Everything else, I'd say, she's told him. Though, I expect the potions/charms thing may come out eventually if their daughter starts showing signs of Lille's genetic traits.
Secrets:
-Lille still has quite the thing for Muggle music... or she would, if she ever gave it a thought. She's done her best to repress it and doesn't want it nor anything about it ever coming up again.
-Is, for all intents and purposes, a murderer; though I guess it would be no secret that she doesn't regret it.
-When she was very young, her mother had charms put on her to keep her hair straight and cornsilk-colored, as well as some to keep her teeth straight and completely white.
-She doesn't see the point in staying at school, but can't stand to be apart from Rabastan.
-Used to consider Aggie a threat, but now only considers her a joke.
-Likes Zaria quite a bit, but snide comments come out at her before she can stop them since she's so used to them. She may or may not apologize to her before the year is up.

Deep Dark Secrets Meme
Lille's a lot more charitable than she'd have people believe. There've been countless times that she simply wants to buy things for people that don't have them (and that deserve them) and send them anonymously (especially with the incident at the robes boutique with Caroline Mulciber), but it never happens. She does, however, give her old robes to auctions. Not that anyone else in the Wizarding World can quite wear them; I don't expect many people are as tiny as she is. All that piled on top of the fact that yes, she is supposed to have curly hair, bad teeth, and freckles. But potions, charms, bla bla bla.
Rantmeme
relevant as of December 2004.
I think I'm going to take the same route as everyone else and do my first character for the game, which brings us to little miss Lille. (And you know, her name means 'little' in Danish? Just thought I'd share.) I'll be the first to say that when I first joined, I was nearly kicking myself because of what a Sue she was in the app. And she was, evident from her first log with Brenna. But hopefully I've grown out of that for the most part and we're all much better now. I can't say I intended her to be as hated as she is now, but that's certainly something that's turned out for the best.
Anyhow, on to the virtues, etc., hm? Lille's much more ...well, she's a follower. And if it's not obvious, it really should be. At the beginning, she follows her mother and is stuck up that way, but now that she's got Rabastan and he's a more direct influence on her life, she follows him. Not that she doesn't inherently believe that she's better than most other people especially those of lesser blood (which is something that's been ingrained in her mind since she was four), but now she has a reason other than just, 'I'm prettier,' and an outlet for all the dislike she's gathered over the years from being Not Liked By Others.
At least I've done something right by putting her in Slytherin; she's definitely the type to do anything to get what she wants, and she's probably the first Slytherin I've ever played that fully fits that requirement. She's very ambitious and manipulative.
Hmm. What else, what else. Perhaps this would be a good spot to go into her back story, since I've never really done that before. Let's see, born in 1960, bla bla bla. Um. Her father. Yes. Her dad was head healer at St Mungo's until 1964 when he was murdered by a small group of ...well, drunken Muggles, which spawned Lille's dislike for them. Well, which spawned her Mother's dislike for them, and of course she passed that on to impressionable Lille. I think Brand was around his father for too long, and he's a lot like Cillian (daddy smith) but we'll leave that for his meme. And of course, since she's all those lovely Slytherin qualities, she gets put in Slytherin with the rest of the Muggle-hating population (for the most part.) and everything just falls together for her.
Despite all that, Lille will never, never, never become a Death Eater willingly. Ever. She doesn't mind that Rabastan does it and she supports the cause wholeheartedly, but she doesn't want to be part of the organization. Of course, she's more than just interested in the curses and the inner workings of the Dark Arts themselves, but Lille and Death Eater are just not synonymous.
She also hates to hurt Brand more than just petty sibling rivalry and she'd honestly do anything for him. She's very close to him, despite what it seems like on the outside, because he was all she had from the time she was seven and owls him nearly every week since he's graduated with news as to what's going on in Hogwarts, etc. She's been reluctant to tell him about the Cause and what she does for fun, however, because she knows it'd tear him up inside. That, of course, doesn't stop her from teasing and cursing his friends (especially Francis and Searlait, while they were home during the last Hols) in front of him.
Boggart/Patronus/Mirror of Erised/Animagus meme
Lille's boggart. Hm. I think the thing she's most afraid of, honestly, is losing her loved ones. Everything she's done has had something to do with gaining acceptance (from, of course, those who she wants to be accepted by). Of course, she's already in the final stages of expelling Brand from her life, but I think, really, deep down (though she might not even know it and certainly will never admit it) she's going to regret doing it. But how to put that in boggart form? She'd see Rabastan speechlessly walking away from her and not turning back when she pleads for him to.
Then, to make the boggart stop, she'd probably turn him into Aggie Flint or her mother, who's constantly been walking away from her her entire life, anyway. It would be someone who she wouldn't mind seeing leave, though.
Lille's animagus would be something sleek. I'm thinking a fox. Small, opportunistic. Plus, depending on how you look at it, they're also brilliant at controlling pests and Lille has no reservations about killing off Mudbloods.
Lille's Patronus... I really think would be the same as her animagus form. I sat here for a good hour trying to think of something, and there is really nothing else.
Lille would see herself in the mirror as she really is. As much stock as she puts into being beautiful: maintaining her hair and teeth, her makeup, etc, she (though it's terribly repressed) really wants nothing more than to be who she really is in front of everyone and still remain just as accepted as she is at the present moment. She'd have the darker, curly hair and not-as-perfect teeth, she'd be a little taller, and she'd be happily listening to her records, dancing with Rabastan, dressed in her plaid trousers.
