Appearance: Seneca is the only child of the late Alexandria Lestrange that took after her appearance-wise (Seneca feels it's important to emphasize that). She has that same sandy blonde hair her mother used to have. Other than that, she looks like a small Alexandria, save for her eyes which are hazel like her father's rather than blue like her mother's. Seneca is almost too tall for a girl, at five feet four and she's neither very slender nor too plump. A healthy average. She's right handed.

Another thing that should be noted in this section is that she is a metamorphmagus. That being said, you can't see her walking about in crazy hair colours or anything. Seneca likes to think of her gift practically, rather than vainly. It's a gift for more important things than merely changing your hair colour! Seneca has also never tried to make herself prettier, even though so could. That is because she thinks that only silly girls care too much about their appearance.

Being only fifteen, Seneca doesn't care overmuch about fashion yet. Her skirts only recently began to touch the floor. She prefers practicality over beauty. Merlin, there's nothing more annoying than an uncomfortable dress because it has too many information on it! She also loves wizarding fashion and it is her clothing of choice at school and at home.
History:
Childhood (1873-1884)
Seneca could have been a very insignificant member of her family, seeing that she was the youngest girl. What saved her from such a fate was her unusal gift, her metamorphic powers, which began to manifest in the early months of her life. Her father, a Transfiguration enthusiast, took an interest to her. (Possibly because her powers in the future.) To add to her merits, Seneca was a well-behaved child.

It didn't take her long to realize that she was 'special' and, from a young age, Seneca had a sense that she was an important individual. She was a member of one of the most esteemed families in the magical world and she had a rare power - clearly she was destined to greatness! She took an intellectual interest from a young age - talent and a rare gift alone wouldn't take her far in life!

As it has been already said, Seneca was a well-behaved child. That being said, she wasn't an angel to everyone. She was to those she deemed important, but to those she didn't find as such, she could come off as rather arrogant. She didn't have an easy time making friends with children she couldn't boss around.

She didn't have a good relationship with either of her sisters growing up. Seneca thought herself better than them, though she knew better than not to at least treat Valeria with respect, seeing that she was the oldest. Cornelia she deemned unimportant and unclever. She was lucky to be pretty and a Lestrange. With her brothers, her relationship was better, mostly because Seneca was always nicer to them.

Seneca lost her mother when she was eleven, in the February of 1884. She wasn't exactly devastated - she's always liked her Papa best, because he was the parent that it was important to have on her good side. Mama was a vapid woman and she seemed to feel uncomfortable about Seneca's powers. Seneca never enjoyed a feeling that wasn't sheer admiration from people.

Hogwarts (1884-Present)
Seneca was sorted into Slytherin, which was no surprise to anyone. That being said, Seneca felt it so important that she is sorted into her father's house and not, Merlin forbid, Hufflepuff, that she actually urges the Hat to sort her there.

She's a dilligent student so she does well in her classes. It pains her that she can't naturally be good at all of them, though. Especially Transfiguration. It is her father's most favourite branch of magic and she's a metamorphmagus, besides, Transfiguration is in her blood in a way, yet she has no exceptional talent for it. Her talents lay in the Dark Arts and Duelling. She's lucky to be her father's special snowflake girl, which gives her his permission to duel, an activity that is generally frowned upon for girls.

In 1885, her father has a task for her. He asks her to pretend to be him on her brother's Cassius' bedside. She doesn't question this at all. She's always had blind faith for her father. Little does she know that her father asked her this in order to break her crazy uncle Tybalt from prison! She'll likely put the pieces together sometime in the future, if she ever thinks of this.

In the autumn of 1886, her father remarries to a spinster named Belphoebe Lestrange. Seneca doesn't like this - she views Belle as a threat. She knows better than to openly antagonize her stepmother, though, and she keeps her feelings to herself. She even enjoys a pleasant relationship with her, in spite of her private feelings.

In the summer of 1887, Seneca becomes interested in the arts of Legilimency and Occlumency. In spite of her young age, Seneca thinks herself perfectly capable to master those skills, because she's so gifted and special. She asks her cousin, and a ward to her father, Tiberius Lestrange for help. She also happens to have a crush on him, because her's her Papa's favourite younger Lestrange and, in a perfect world, they'd be the power couple that would put all power couples to shame.

She's not too pleased when her place as the youngest child is usurped by a brother, in the October of 1887. She views young Cicero, as a potential threat to the family dynamics.
Personality: A narcissist through and through. Seneca believes that she is special and destined for greatness. At least she is diligent and willing to work hard for this legacy of greatness she is bound to leave behind her.

She's not all too bad. She's not evil, or anything. Unlike some relatives, she doesn't enjoy inflicting pain for the hell of it. She's just very pragmatic and opportunistic, that's all.

She's loyal to those she loves. She's not generous with her friendships, though she's generally friendly with all, because there's no use in not being liked, if you can help it. Seneca knows the importance of public relations and kissing ass when it's necessary.
Other: Her favourite spell is the Stinging Hex.
Sample Roleplay Post:

Seneca had no issue with her cousin Frida joining her at the conclusion of their lesson. Her silence while they walked was typical of Seneca, who wasn’t the sort to start conversations with most people. That was because conversation with that category of people consisted of unimpressive small talk and Seneca wanted to have none of it. She also had nothing to talk about with Frida. That being said, if Frida started a conversation, Seneca would dutifully engage her and actually make an effort to keep the chat going, something she wouldn’t do in a small talk with just anybody who wasn’t family.

Frida did say something, at an unfortunate time, for Seneca was too busy watching one of her books dropping down the stairs. Frustrated with that and with Frida, who was so inconsiderate as to make small talk while Sen’s book was being lost to the lower floors of Hogwarts, Seneca cried: “My book!” She nearly stomped her foot as she said that.

Sighing, to emphasize her struggle, Seneca pulled out her wand and commanded: “Accio book!” She was somewhat offended that Frida hadn’t rushed to do just that before she’d had the chance. Count on her cousin to be of no use!
