Terror in Threes

She didn't choose this role but she'll play it and make it sincere.

The three sisters were as much alike as they were apart, though they would never admit it.

Narcissa was the youngest; she was the fair. Pretty, dainty Narcissa—a vision of blonde hair and blue eyes, nothing like her older sisters. She was the apple of her daddy's eye, and she knew it. Whilst she appeared simpering, kind and gentle, she was actually quite the opposite. Her prim and proper ways made her materialistic, and nothing was ever good enough for Princess Narcissa.

Andromeda was the middle; she was the rebel. She was modelled in the image of their mother, soft brown hair and eyes, a round, friendly face. Andromeda never appreciated her family's views on Pureblood heritage, but she never let it be known to them until she was much older. She avoided her sisters, seeking solace in her books. She was honest, she was forgiving—but she was stubborn. Her rebellious attitude would see her abjured from the family.

Bellatrix was the eldest; she was dagger. There was no other way to describe Bellatrix—an independent whirlwind of arrogance and confidence, ever since she was born. Her jet-black hair and grey eyes were never kind like Narcissa's, or honest like Andromeda's. She was intelligent and compassionate towards the things that mattered to her—but she was manipulative and conceited. Bellatrix cared for very few people, and she put far too much pressure and on the ones whom she loved.

They were so different, but the Black family had never been blessed with a more confident—and powerful—trio of women.
