Personality: Sirius presents as a confident, laid back, and flirty person. He has a witty and sarcastic sense of humour and enjoys banter. He is a brat who enjoys pushing people's buttons in a playful manner, and he is a mischievous man who likes to play pranks. At times he can come across as cocky, or arrogant, and he can be snarky when he gets irritated. He is a brave man and is incredibly loyal, going above and beyond for his friends and loved ones, to the point of being overprotective at times. He is incredibly stubborn and can be reckless and impulsive. He is loud, vibrant, brash and has a raucous laugh. He is outspoken, bold, and has a defiant and rebellious streak, especially towards authority figures. He is intelligent and charismatic and he know it. He can be bitchy and catty, but at his core he has a heart of gold. Despite his confident persona, he has a lot of insecurities and his abusive upbringing has left him with issues around trust, commitment and difficult in expressing vulnerability. He covers up these insecurities by playing up his confident and carefree facade. He is an extravert.

Background: Sirius has a brother called Regulus, who is two years younger than him. The two of them have a strained relationship, stemming from Sirius leaving home at 18. Sirius faced a lot of abuse and neglect from his parents—Walburga and Orion Black—and was taught from an early age that perfection was not just expected, but mandatory. At times, he would act up, or take the blame for things Regulus had done, so he would be punished instead of his little brother. As the eldest son, he was the heir to the Most Noble House of Black, and he rejected the expectations that came with this status, growing rebellious and defiant. He is a pureblood, but places no stock in blood supremacy. When Sirius left home, he went to live with his best friend, James Potter. James' parents, Effie and Monty, took him in and he now sees them as his parents. When he left home, he asked Regulus to come with him, Regulus refused and Sirius struggled with a lot of guilt for leaving his little brother behind. His best friends are James, Remus and Peter. Sirius' nickname in his friend group is 'Padfoot'. James attended Hogwarts, where he was in Gryffindor house, graduating at 18. While he was at Hogwarts, he and his friends called their friend group the 'Marauders', and enjoyed pulling pranks together.
