Heya, this is the information part, cos' I can't seem to draw up a proper family tree AND put all the extra information together. It just keeps getting meshed together. I tried, and posted it up, but it went all wrong!!! So I gave up. Bleah… anywayz, here's the theories I have =)

Important note: All of these are MADE UP!!! They may and may not have direct evidence from reality! Especially those of the royal stuff!!!



Side on Snape Family:



            Stephen Snape (Severus's grandfather) had been the 71st Head of the Snape family. Though the family wasn't as big as it was before, they still held a lot of power in Europe, specifically the United Kingdom, France and Russia, where he held high titles etc.

            Severus's father, Solomon, married Johanna Strafford in an alliance of sorts. She was the youngest princess of Magical Monaco, but it was NOT a love match.

            Severus, in turn, inherited his father's titles, of which included Duke of Leicester, Count of Trent and Duke of Edinburgh in England and others in France. Since he has no intention to marry for an heir, he is willing to hand over his titles to Sedaris or Salazar, both of whom have flatly refused.

            Athena Kadamon had been Severus Snape's fiancée until she ran away unexpectedly 17 years ago. Before that, he had already joined the Death Eaters and Athena had supported him through and through, being the person who kept him sane. Her disappearance caused his heart to turn to stone, and he only managed to be kind to those of the Court of Twelve, as he had studied his last years there from age 18-20.

            These three years of studies was never known to the Dark Circle and Voldemort. Over the years, he still kept in contact with the others of the Court of Twelve, especially the batch that contained his god-children – Azrael and Silverdawn.

Most importantly, he went over to Dumbledore's side at the age of 19, but the Circle never knew…


            When he first met Draco, he had known that the boy was one of the Court of Twelve. Thus, a special mentorship began since Draco's first year. That's the reason why Severus had taken a liking to the child, for Severus had been in Gahedriel too. *surprise surprise*



Side on Kadamon Family:

            King Anthony II (Azrael's grandfather) had been the ruler of the Magical World. The Royalty of Magical Great Britain, Imperial Russia, and other countries are under him, so making him the supreme ruler of the entire Wizarding World. However, he wasn't a bad ruler, so no major riots had occurred.

            Adariel Kolfhaven (Azrael's grandmother) was the Grand Duchess and heir apparent of Russia and Santa Monica, being the only daughter of the former Magical Tsar Alexandrov and Princess Solaria, thus Athena (Azrael's paternal aunt) inherited the title of Princess of Santa Monica and Grand Duchess of Russia. Hermione, child of Athena, when of age, will inherit the titles too. (God! I am also albeit muddled by my own creation… Somebody give me an aspirin!)

            At that time, royals of all countries of the world marry to gain alliance and peace. King Anthony II did too, but with the bonus of the fact that Adariel and he were greatly in love. (Thank God for that…)

            Israfil Langford (Azrael's mother) was the ruler of the Angelic Kingdom/World for centuries due to her being immortal – an angel. She met Adam (Azrael's father) at the age of 858 (human terms should be about 20), and after their marriage, made herself become mortal so as to be able to grow old with Adam. She died at the age of 34, leaving behind 2 12-year-olds (Mikael and Lucifer) and 2 5-year-olds (Azrael and Silverdawn).

            As a result, the Angelic World lost their Queen, and Silverdawn, though 5, was immediately crowned heir apparent (due to the sigil that signified her as heir of Angelic World) and the 4 elemental angels helped rule as regents before her 18th birthday, where she would assume the throne officially.

            She was also the guardian of mystic creatures, as she and her siblings were able to communicate with all sorts of creatures, but she was the most perceptive among them.

            The children of Adam and Israfil Kadamon are angels by their birthright. Adam along was an angel of high lineage, whilst Israfil was Queen of the Angels.

            Lucifer was given the status as heir to the throne of hell as his powers were acknowledges by his uncle, Satan, the current King of Hell (Don't ask me why, it's too complicated)

            Azrael was named the guardian of time, as his powers granted him control of dimensions and time. A very heavy responsibility, as he has to keep one era from meshing with another. Also, he is the heir to the throne of Muggle Europe (his father is currently the head of the Muggle European Royalty), which has been a constant headache to him…

The Court of Twelve is a circle that continues in United World Institute of Magic throughout the centuries. The students are chosen by a Voice that enables the people within the Court to communicate mentally with one another. When one has graduated from United World Institute of Magic, the Voice will choose another, usually within a year.

            The Court serves the Universal Royal Family directly, and up till now, all members of the Royal Family had been in the Court of Twelve during their years of schooling in UWIM. The others eventually enter the Universal Parliament and become high-ranking members of the High Court of the ENTIRE Magical World, i.e.: Ambassadors, Commanders of Armies, Officials of different Governments, etc.

            In Professor Snape's case, he is formerly a commander of the French legion, Missouri. He resigned after Athena left him (talk about how young a commander he was!), and refused to take up Ambassadorial work when he already had his hands full from the titles he already held. (*cackles* I'm so bad. ^_^!)

            The people who had been in the Court of Twelve will KNOW each other when they meet even though they were of different generations. The Voice holds them together to their death, thus, they are a very united circle.

            Their aliases are chosen by the Voice based on their personalities and particular trait. Take for example Nikolai – she is Temperance due to her tolerance and ability to heal.



NOTE: I have changed the details of Takizawa Hideaki. He had formerly been from United Honors, but I've transferred him into United Masters. Hope you guys will not find this change too big.



I'll try to get the family tree up soon, but it just gets tangled up, so I'm pleading you guys, somebody help me. I've tried posting it up time and again, but something seems wrong about it… Any computer experts (HTML ones) out there??? Currently, I'm giving up on the idea to make a family tree and get something simpler out. Hope you guyz don't mind.



That's all for now, hope that this part will be of help to you when reading. If there are some more misunderstandings, please inform me, via review of e-mail. Thanks. I'll get more Snape into the fic, promise! But I don't think that there'll be his scene in the next chapter. Do remember though, this is NOT Snape/Hermione slash (supposedly… I still dunno how it'll end up.), but it definitely has something to do with those two, so if anyone's complaining, I'll just put this fic back under the section of Hermione, Hope that all of you out there would understand. So tat's it.



See ya soon!



Love,
