Distinguishing Features: Lucille has her ears pierced once on the lobes, though aside from that prides herself on keeping an enviably smooth, unmarked complexion free from tattoos, other piercings, but she does have a set of scars from a full moon fight on her right shoulder blade.
Dressing Style: True to her lavish upbringing, Lucille dresses to the trends, using her model's figure to carry whatever happens to be the trend. She likes to showcase her slender, angular body, and as such is likely to dress in more fitted things. Lucille is mostly feminine by nature, even when she wears robes she goes for more womanly shapes, and when it comes to muggle clothes she prefers skirts and dresses- though isn't opposed to jeans when the mood strikes. Lucille loves jewelry, and as such no outfit of hers is likely to go unadorned. As far as footwear goes, Lucille doesn't let her height deter her from wearing heels, but also wears flats when the occasion calls for comfort.
PERSONALITY
Personality Description: Lucille can be described as the embodiment of elegance, from the way she carries herself down to the way each of her sentences is carefully constructed, littered with eloquent adjectives. She holds her head high, and is a rather proud person. She can easily be seen as cool or aloof toward people she doesn't know very well, she simply prefers to reserve the effort of her conversation to people that mean something to her. Lucille is a planner, everything she does is painstakingly thought through before execution, she doesn't like rushing in to things or having to make split-second decisions. Although she may be slower to make decisions, Lucille can be counted on to select the best option for herself and others most of the time, making her a candidate to be a good, albeit distant, leader.
Socially, she sits in the exact middle of the scale between introversion and extroversion- Lucille doesn't mind talking to new people, but needs to be approached. She doesn't mind grand parties associated with people of her family's social standing, though wouldn't attend unless she knew it would be prudent for her to go. She can at times be a bit arrogant, over the years she has become far too trusting in herself and her own intuition, and her pride is easily wounded. Despite her easily offended nature, Lucille doesn't ever really get angry, at least not in a way that is visible to others. She prefers to bottle her feelings rather than express them.
Likes: Tea, red wine, red meat (cooked rare, of course), classical music, dancing, visual art, rain, the smell of old books, reading, jewelry, fashion.
Dislikes: Temperature extremes, pureblood supremacists, following orders, clutter, being dirty, butterbeer, most sweets, cats, rodents, insects.
Strengths: Language, logical thought, creative pursuits (painting, writing, etc), runes, potions.
Weaknesses: Transfiguration, slow decision maker, bottles her feelings, her pride, arrogance, easily annoyed, easily offended, can be selfish.
MAGICAL WORLD

Desired Position: N/A
BACKGROUND
Mother: Aimee Delacroix, 61, pureblood witch
Father: Pierre Delacroix, 67, pureblood wizard
Sibling(s): ___ Delacroix, 32, brother
___ Delacroix, 28, brother
___ Delacroix, 25, brother
Other Important Family: All three of her brothers are married, and she has two nephews from her eldest brother.
History: Aimee and Pierre have a rather unconventional love story, given that the pair were never really in love. Second-cousins by blood, their marriage was arranged by their parents to keep the blood pure, and rather than make a fuss the pair stuck together to appease their parents. Over the years they did manage to develop some sort of feeling for one another, or at least for the combined fortune their marriage bought, and they began to have children. It took until her fourth pregnancy for Aimee to conceive the daughter she so desperately craved, though while Lucille was still an infant, it became apparent that she was not the perfect little girl the Delacroixes craved.
Lucille Elodie Delacroix, was born a werewolf. It was a condition presumed lost somewhere in the Delacroix family tree- though both her parents carried the recessive gene, and it surfaced in Lucille. Her parents, terrified of what the stigma might bring to their family, immediately took great lengths to hide their daughter's condition from the world- taught her that it was something to be ashamed of so she might keep it to herself. And growing up, she did. Aside from her not-so-little secret, Lucille found ways to fit in to the lifestyle of the social elite, finding she took to the elegance of it.
At eleven she was reluctantly sent to Hogwarts, her parents dropping money in every direction to make sure word of her condition never leaked out, and kept secret it was. Lucille spent her years as a Ravenclaw uneventfully, not being the most social of creatures she made friends selectively, and did well in her studies, being named a prefect in her fifth year. Lucille graduated with good marks, and since then has simply coasted through life, living off her parents' money and taking interest in half-breed activism. Though how long her secret will remain that way is unforeseen.
