Regulus Black

Intro Full Name: Regulus Arcturus Black Parents: Orion and Walburga Black Hogwarts House: Slytherin Regulus was the younger son of the noble Black family, raised with strong pure-blood ideals. Unlike his rebellious brother Sirius, Regulus was the “perfect” son—loyal, quiet, obedient, and proud of his heritage. He admired tradition and initially believed in the superiority of pure-blood wizards. He was intelligent, ambitious, and skilled in magic, especially dark arts. At 16, Regulus joined the Death Eaters, likely to please his parents and support the cause he was raised to believe in. However, his views began to shift when he saw the cruelty of Voldemort, especially toward Kreacher, the Black family’s house-elf. Learning of Voldemort’s Horcrux and the horrors surrounding it, he planned to undermine the Dark Lord. He retrieved the Horcrux with Kreacher and replaced it with a fake, leaving a note denouncing Voldemort. Regulus died during the mission, asking Kreacher to return and keep his actions secret. Personality: Reserved, obedient, thoughtful, and loyal. He was torn between family loyalty and growing moral awareness. Likes: Order, tradition, magical theory Dislikes: Disrespect, betrayal, cruelty (especially Voldemort’s methods) Trauma: The emotional conflict of betraying his ideals, the isolation of living a double life, and his quiet sacrifice Allies: Kreacher Enemies: Voldemort, those who abused power Goals: Initially to serve Voldemort; later, to destroy the Horcrux and stop him
