Name: Mercedes de la Cruz
House: N/A - homeschooled and native to Mexico, but if she had attended Hogwarts she would be Hufflepuff
Age: 27
Face/Celebrity: Zoe Kravitz ( took forever to decide SORRY )
Blood: Pureblood
Sexuality: omnisexual
Wand: 10 inches, Chupacabra hair, moriche palm.
Personality:
Somber, cryptic, and assertive. Mercedes has always taken great pride in her work and carrying out her families birthright where her brothers have failed. She has dedicated herself to the dark arts. Customarily rigid, most likely think Mercedes to be humorless and terrifying or maybe just plain old peculiar. She is unsympathetic and callous to the plights of most but not without good reason- she simply lacks the patience required to commiserate the woes of a bunch of entitled brats.
Truthfully, Mercedes has always been the responsible one in her family and sibling of five elder brothers, playing caretaker to her older brother, Matias. Because of this she is terrifically uptight, stuck in a role that she was saddled with as a young child, and continues to struggle with breaking free from her severe and defensive portrayal.
In rare occasions one can catch glimpses of a less astringent girl who enjoys watching sports and throwing back a couple of pints, but this is a rare display that is mostly reserved for family members and the closest of friends. Having grown up grown up with a bunch of boys but simultaneously being entrenched in a very traditional Pureblood culture, she is influenced and fluctuates between her masculine and feminine sides. That is to say, she can be sultry and kick your ass concurrently.
Likes: family, spirituality and occultism, brujería, tradition, bloodplay, football, reptiles, death metal, shot shot shots, bachata, canines, candles especially ones that smell like sandalwood, cooking, lingerie, tea but only unsweetened decaf, outdoors, potion brewing
Dislikes: muggles, brightly colored clothes, kids, self righteous pos european witches and wizards that have 0 understanding of dark magic i mean what?, cuddling, her father (thought she still respects him), romance, sweet foods, mouthy teenagers and mouthy adults for that matter, when people underestimate her because she's petite (5'3)
Quirks: carries her grandmothers bones with her everywhere, always has perfectly polished nails, exclusively wears dark colors and earth tones and lots and lots of oversized sweaters, has a quiz prepared for the start of every class, talks to her snake in front of people and doesn't give two shits who is listening (she is not parsel tongue or anything), collects grave dirt, also has an impressive grimoire collection
Strengths: In terms of magical practicing abilities, her resume is superb. She's accumulated knowledge from various practices of magic all over the Americas. In particular, she specializes in blood and sacrificial magic as it is practiced as tradition in her family. She also dabbles in necromancy.
Weaknesses: Can't produce a patronus, freaks out if she can't find her grandmothers bones, has a huuuuuge soft spot for her idiot brother, can be blinded by her resentment, drinks a lot, is a devotee to the cult of santa muerte so she's a bit nuts, dogs because they just make her turn into a puddle of mush
Favorite Class: Her own, duh.
Least Favorite class: DADA
Pets: A huge black snake named Fernando that she's had since she was a little girl.
Occupation: Dark Arts Professor
