Larissa Black

Life was never simple for Larissa Black, being born during the height of the First Wizarding War. She was only three years old when her father was arrested and sentenced to life imprisonment in Azkaban. Larissa's mother feared raising her daughter on her own, especially since she so strongly resembled Sirius in both looks and personality. Soon after the arrest, Larissa was left on the doorstep of her god-father, Remus Lupin, while her mother fled the country.

Remus became like a father to Larissa, raising the girl as if she were his own. The pair found themselves moving quite frequently throughout the years as Remus struggled to maintain a steady job due to his lycanthropy. Eventually the two settled in France and when Larissa turned eleven years old she started attending Beauxbatons Academy of Magic.

When Remus is offered a job teaching at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, it is decided that Larissa would transfer there for her fifth year. With the news of her father's escape from Azkaban, Remus wants to keep a watchful eye on his god-daughter. Being the daughter of an escaped mass-murderer does not make her transfer to Hogwarts very easy, but Larissa finds herself becoming fast friends with Fred and George Weasley. After all, Larissa was genetically predisposed to be mischievous.
