"Despite being cousins, the Black children were raised as if they were siblings.
Seeing how both Orion and Cygnus resides at the infamous Grimmauld Place, their children had been raised
together their entire lives. When they were very young, they were excedingly close, and would sign all their letters
SBARN, using the first letters of their first names, proving that they enjoyed functioning as one unit. As they
entered into adolescence, the children starting to split-up. The dark Bellatrix and wild Sirus were known as the
'Big Pair', while playful Narcissa and shy Regulus were called 'The Little Pair'. Gentle Andromeda, the middle child,
found her place in the family by being the one that the other children often looked to for advice, thus earning
her the title of 'The Little Governess'. It was these five children who made the story of the last generation of
Blacks to be so impacting; since it it was so tragic to see these once happy children fall victim to the cruelness
of their society"
-Jean Gilliard, French tutor of SBARN.

They were one of the most despised families in magical history, yet easily the most influential. The Black family was 'practically royal' in the way that up until their downfall in the year of 1979, they held more power than even the Ministry of Magic. Some people blame their downfall on the deep, almost spiritual-like relationship that Walburga and Druella held with Lord Voldemort. Knowing that the Blacks held the key to power within Magic England, some say that he used his companionship with the family to win over Pureblood society.
The real fall of the Black family started in August of the year 1974, when in the midst of growing close to Voldemort, the people of Wizarding England started protesting to end the influence that the Blacks had on the Ministry of Magic. By 1978, the Blacks were out of power. By 1980, all who had not been disowned or married off, were dead.
In 2004, journals were discovered that were used as a way for the children to privately communicate with their friends and families back in 1975. Through these journals, scholars of History of Magic have been able to glance into the lives of the last royal family of Wizarding England.
Game is brand new, so many characters are still open. Sirius Black is especially needed. Also Rodolphus Lestrange ; both Bellatrix and Rabastan await him. Many other students are needed, as well as adults.
