| Bio: |  Callidora isn’t the worst person in the world, but she certainly is not the most sugar coated either. She learned quickly how to insult people while making them believe she liked them. She comes off as being a sweet woman, and deep down she is. She has a brilliant mind when it comes to music (she plays the piano) and other forms of art work. While she is smart, the woman never cared much for school, who needed it when she knew how her life would turn out? Callidora is a very old fashioned woman, having been brought up to be prim and proper as any lady should. She scoffs at the idea of women doing anything outside of parenting or being nurses and teachers, though being with the children or keeping a house for one’s husband is of course preferred. She believes that men ought to be doing the hard labor and fending for the families. The woman’s job is to nurture and raise children and meet the needs of her husband. In a sense, she’s rather plain and simplistic outwardly. But deep down, the woman has her fair share of secrets. Callidora was born on a late September evening in 1915. She would become the first of three daughters belonging to Arcturus and Lysandra Black. She had what her mother would consider a normal childhood for any respectable family’s daughter. From an early age Callidora was taught how to play the piano and tutored on the right ways of being a woman. She, along with her sisters, was pampered and paraded throughout all of the major parties hosted by Lysandra. By the time Callidora was eleven and old enough to go to school, she was playing the piano and speaking almost fluent Latin at the request of her father. Though she hated the language, Callidora learned it. In school Callidora faired averagely. She excelled in certain areas such as Astronomy, Arithmancy, Charms, and Ancient Runes. While in her other subjects she simply deemed most of them almost useless to her. Why did she need to learn some of those things when her job would be to take care of a husband, children, and a house someday? She knew that at a very early age, the life of a housewife similar to her mother was what Callidora wanted to become. Her school years did bring about a couple of changes to her, however. Callidora began to notice the gentlemen she was now attending classes with. One in particular, a slightly older boy by the name of Harfang Longbottom. He caught her eye the first time they spoke in the hallway. She knew at once that somehow she had to make Harfang notice her as more than just a classmate. He met the qualifications her parents would require of any sexual interest. He would graduate three years before she did. And during those three years, Callidora flirted and dated several men, none of which she ever felt half as connected to. Two years after graduating from Hogwarts, Callidora met her prince charming again. Only this time she was to be marrying him. Once she’d left school for the final time, she had written to Harfang, which created a romance via the owl post for quite some time. The day she never thought would come came in mid-June of 1935 when Harfang proposed to Callidora, after having the proper permission from her parents. They wed six months later in December so that both of her sisters could be in attendance. By the end of the 1930’s, Callidora’s younger sister, Cedrella was disowned for marrying a Weasley. This saddened Callidora to an extent, so she did her best to actually keep in private contact with her. But by the end of the 1930’s a war was breaking. One that Callidora dreaded, fearing that her husband would want to help fight in that particular war. In Germany of all places. To her worst fear, Callidora’s husband decided it was best for him to help fight for the cause of the entire Pureblood class. It was his job to honor his family, he’d told her. After several months of time away, he finally returned to her, which was when Callidora vowed he wouldn’t be doing that ever again. But little did she know that nearly two and a half decades later another war would break out, one that the better half of her family was involved in somehow. Some fought for the Pureblood Elite, while others fought for the Mudbloods. This tore Callidora into pieces. Her grandson and his wife fought on the opposite side from the majority of the Black family decedents. In the early 1980’s after hearing of what happened to her grandson, Callidora couldn’t understand how families could be so cruel to one another. Hadn’t her cousin Bellatrix realized that Frank had been a member of the family? Unfortunately none of that mattered, as she watched one part of the family waste away in the hospital, and several others waste away inside of Azkaban. After the first war, Callidora distanced herself from much of her family. Save for her immediate family members. When the second war broke out, Callidora kept herself neutral, believing it best that as an 82 year old witch she had no say in the matter. In the late summer of 2015, Callidora passed away peacefully, just five years before yet more chaos would consume the magical world.
