Appearance:
Decently above the average woman, Narcissa stands at roughly 5' 5". Her frame is quite slenderly petite and doesn't have any full voluminous curves as she weighs in at 118lbs. Being lanky or willowy is something that runs in the Jameston family and isn't something that has ever bothered her personally. It almost aids in the look of her seamlessly gliding when walking around from place to place.

Narcissa is blessed with the Jameston's rich dark brown hair that flows nicely down to about her breasts. Her hair is always kept looking as nice as can be with hardly a hair out of place. The darkest of her hair brings out the brightness behind her light blue eyes and frames out her porcelain skin quite brilliantly. Because of the veela she inherited from her mother her skin almost seems to radiate and one might consider it perfectly flawless. If tasked to pick out a feature as defining on Narcissa a quick pick would be her strong jawline.

Always one to appease the general public of her everyday routines, Narcissa dresses exceptionally well as if she were a finely tuned doll. Having the family lie about veela blood in the girls veins has led to many a lesson on looking as best as one can. The thought behind it being that when one might become slightly intoxicated by their looks it can be argued that the effect was brought on by their overall look and not simply the girl. Thankfully one cannot just be upper class without fully looking the part at all times and so the extra effort hardly goes noticed.

History:
Narcissa was born the first of two fraternal twin girls. Twins being a family trait for many generations, Charles and Rose Jameston were very grateful the breaking of pureblood didn't effect the 'family tradition'. Things seemed off to a great start for the budding family who were quickly showing off their new pair of girls.

From the start of things Narcissa was a little off compared to the other children she'd see around her. Subjected to many playdates and family meals with her cousins, it became quickly apparent that Narcissa didn't mesh into the norm of innocent child play. Most games seemed a bore and tasks that proved to be quite hilarious to others didn't quite make sense to her. It was a common sight to watch her gaze blankly around at others during these times as she tried to understand what she was clearly missing.

On the other end of the spectrum though it was quickly noticed the kinds of things Narcissa found 'interesting'. Frequently sneaking off on her own, it was on more then one occasion that Ariel Jameston found her daughter pestering the house elves in odd ways. A poke here and there with sharp objects or a hard tug of the ears sent many a house elf close to tears from pain. Baffled by her daughters insistence towards tormenting the elves, Narcissa was put on close watch at all times during her younger years.

Being under watch proved hard for Narcissa who preferred to have her space from others since she lacked any real reason to want to interact with them. It immediately became common for Narcissa to act out ragefully and almost violently with the throwing of objects around the house. Under the impression that perhaps Narcissa had gained more the veela traits then her younger sister had the Jamestons tried to brush the outbursts off as nothing.

As the time approached for the governess to begin her teachings to the girls, the Jamestons found themselves quite relieved with thoughts of Narcissa having something more then child's play to keep her busy. They had high hopes that challenging her mentally would drive her odd actions away as she began to focus all of her attention towards the magical aspects of the world. For them it was a bit of a last hope before accepting something was seriously wrong with their oldest daughter.

The teachings did prove a prime distraction for Narcissa who was naturally competitive and saw the lessons as a challenge between her and her sister Natalia. This is not to say however that the odd behavior she displayed came to a complete halt. The outbursts still existed and resulted in no change in Narcissa's chaperoned life around her own home. Concerned for how things were coming together, Charles and Ariel reached out to Charles brother Cain and his family for advice at one of their many family meals together.

While at their cousin's house the children were left to play together as their parents talked quite secretly in a locked room. It was an easy task for Narcissa to sneak off from the games her sister and cousins were playing. Wandering the not so familiar rooms of the home for house elves to 'play' with, Narcissa made sure to not make a sound so she wouldn't find herself getting caught. This proved ineffective as not long after embarking on the search for elves Narcissa found herself face to face with her uncle Cain.

He grabbed her shoulder and kneeled down so that their eyes were level before talking in the faintest of whispers. It was explained to Narcissa that he knew exactly what she was and, despite it being a magnificent gift, that for her own sake she better shape up and quick. She wasn't going to live long at the horrid rate she was taking things. He told her to focus her attention on acting like those around her and mimicking their reactions. To quite honestly become them on the outside even if she despised it on the inside. After the almost heartfelt teaching, Narcissa was left in the room to be found later by her own concerned parents.

It wasn't something that Narcissa could forget even if she wanted to. She suddenly found herself very aware of the concern and general disappointed demeanor of those around her. Watching her sister closely, Narcissa began understanding the meaning behind her uncles words and started to base her behavior on what others excepted to see from a young lady. It started off small while Narcissa was learning but also didn't take long for her to get the hang of. As if to make up for all horrible 'crimes' to her name she'd caused, Narcissa ramped up the charm in her behavior and it didn't take long for her parents to be overjoyed by the sudden changes. For them their daughter had outgrown an awful phase and was finally the second daughter they'd dreamed of.

Narcissa was intrigued by the response the behavior she was now displaying had in others. Her mother now allowed her to be alone as much as she pleased and her father gladly gave her the things she wanted. Despite hating the majority of people she wasted her time talking to now, it couldn't be helped to see it as a fun new 'game'. The reactions and adoration of others made it clear that this was how she was going to have to be to survive. It was just as her uncle had told her. Although he'd forgotten to mention how much fun it was to play with peoples minds.

Only two years after wearing the charming mask of a proper upper class girl, Narcissa's letter to Hogwarts arrived in the post. It wasn't exactly the most appealing thought to be surrounded by people at all times from then on out but it was quickly out weighed by the thought of all the new people she could add into her 'game'. The thought of having more people to outshine on an academic level really got to Narcissa as well and she actually found herself quite intoxicated over the thought of it.

Year One:
Hardly a second after the sorting hat touches Narcissa's head she is sorted into Slytherin. Feeling exposed by the hats quick decision, Narcissa comes close to having a outburst of anger right there but manages to keep herself together while in front of the other students. The outburst it later carried out while alone into her pillow. She does however run into one knowledgeable person in Aquilla Meliflua though who easily sees through her 'princess' act. The pair quickly carry on as what Narcissa sees as perhaps her first 'true' friendship. Regardless of if that is what it is Narcissa enjoys the ability to shed her mask in front of someone and not leave them horrified.

Year Two:
Quickly a social butterfly with as many students as possible, Narcissa finds herself with many people considering her a good friend. The lack of intelligence people show towards her ruse amuses her.

Year Three:
Picks Ancient Studies, Care of Magical Creatures, and Ghoul Studies as her electives.

Year Four:
Carries on with her act as per usual for all of the school year. Doesn't have any outbursts on other students.

Year Five:
Continues to keep her secret only known to Aquilla. Works hard with O.W.L.s coming up as she doesn't want to slip up and suddenly have her perfect image fall down a notch.

O.W.L.s.

Astronomy - O
Care of Magical Creatures - A
Charms - O
Defense Against the Dark Arts - O
Ghoul Studies - O

Year Six:
Starts her N.E.W.T. courses: Alchemy, Charms, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Ghoul Studies, Herbology, Potions, and Transfiguration. Realizes that her bond with Aquilla may be even more then that and battles internally over her first real experience of the feeling 'love'. While under the Fall Festivals spell she loses her virginity to Aquilla. About a month later Narcissa meets Miss Tatiana Lestrange who happens to be another psychopath. The pair take a leap of faith in one another and solidify their truth through an exchange of the Cruciatus Curse. Unable to resist feeding her inner demons, Narcissa breaks her ties to Aquilla by revealing her true blood status to him. Over the course of the winter break Narcissa murders a muggle man that she lures into a forest.

Personality:
Charming as charming can be, Narcissa is a sweet well mannered girl who keeps to the proper etiquette of one in the upper class at all times. A smile is hardly ever off her face as she tries to brighten every room she enters. A task made quite easy thanks to her blood heritage. One might say she fits in perfectly with the almost 'picture perfect' family she has between her parents and sister. Or rather, this is what she would like you to think as all of it is a mask of lies. Behind which Narcissa is a cold-hearted psychopath.

After noticing the concern and whispers after displaying her true nature Narcissa's mind went into survival mode. From the age of nine and onward Narcissa has spent most of her life as an act around others. Her true self is one that finds most people dis-interesting and pathetic as a result of not being able to comprehend the wide array of emotions a 'normal' person can feel. The only people worth time in her opinion are ones she has the possibly of gaining from. Despite this being her feelings on the inside, years of 'acting' have made these thoughts impossible to notice. On the outside it would appear she is a social butterfly always charming her way into people's lives. This is done quite easily with the help of the quarter veela she has running through her veins.

Not all of the veela running through her though is helpful. Already prone to go from calm to furious at the flick of the wand thanks to her psychosis the added in veela rage only makes these moments horrendous. Narcissa aims to keep a calm look upon her face at all times though, and will excuse herself at a moments notice should she feel her anger about to snap. The rare few that do see Narcissa snap are apologized to quickly after she calms herself back into her mask. Afterwards she always take caution when they are around and avoids long intervals with the individual so they do not have any growing suspicions of her.

Much of the world comes in a 'game' aspect to Narcissa who constantly is profiling others and weighing the benefits of interacting with them. Having had to practice a lot in regards to displaying the perfect emotions for a situation Narcissa has gained a keen insight into peoples disposition. She can almost always tell when someone is lying to her or trying to pull off a ruse. This can work both ways however and people with a very alert sense towards normal human demeanor can see through her lies.

Despite the displeasure of having to interact with magnitudes of different people on a regular basis there are a few things that Narcissa does quite enjoy. She finds the roughness and danger of Quidditch extremely enticing and often contemplates over how she could talk her way into being able to do something of the sort after school. Dueling is another thing Narcissa loves because the feel of overpowering someone and proving you're the greater being is almost unbearably arousing. This feeling carries over into schoolwork as it allows her to look down upon others while keeping her 'mask' on. It is her main motivator towards keeping her grades top notch.

Sample Roleplay Post:
Narcissa seemed to glide across the stone floors of Hogwarts despite not even trying to walk so gracefully. A smile adorned Narcissa's face as she greeted the fellow students she knew and made her way towards the corridor that lead to the door to the black lake. Although enjoying the affect a correct play of words and friendly jesters could have on people, Narcissa found herself craving for some solitude for awhile before carrying out her act as per usual.

Walking out into the grass that surround the black lake, it was easy to spot a very familiar figure ahead in the shade of one of the trees. One of the Jameston boy twins was sitting hunched over a book. It proved problematic. There were other people outside enjoying the fresh air and landscape of the lake, what would they think if they saw her turn the other way from family? Probably not things she wanted them thinking. Narcissa straightened out her course so that she was headed towards her cousin.

Unfortunately from the angle Narcissa was approaching the tree at it it was hard to make out much as far as facial expressions. The smile was the key to knowing she'd discovered in her years of playdates and family dinners. Chris or Cole? Narcissa's footsteps were bringing her closer to the tree and she was still unable to form an answer. Irritated that she even had to bother with such a ridiculous task when she'd originally come outside to escape people, Narcissa picked up her pace as she closed in. Seeing the boy begin to shift his gaze up from his book upon hearing the noise of her footsteps, Narcissa made a dash for the final few meters. In an attempt to look a bit like a playful cousin and give herself a quick fix on some rage, she raised her right foot up after completing her dash and planted it firmly between her cousin's shoulderblades.

Eyes of death quickly met hers at the strange greeting. "Chris!" There was no way this was Cole with a look such as that. "It's been ages! How might you be?" Whether it was the touch of veela in her or perhaps Christopher actually had a soft spot for family, Narcissa watched as Chris' face relaxed and he returned focus back to his schooltext. "Turning into quite the little savage I see." Chris growled at her as he turned the page in his book. "Turning into ever the gentlemen I see." Narcissa crudely looked down upon Chris and let her smile drop. Now that she was completely in the shade of the tree noone was close enough to read her facial expression.

"I have to say, I was quite worried you might actually be Cole when I saw you under this tree." Her face was unreadable in any real expression, but Narcissa hardly looked the innocent angel she portrayed herself as at most times. Laying down in the grass next to her cousin, Narcissa began to rub her cheeks with her hands. "Gods my face bloody hurts." It was the first day of the school year and the day had been filled with more warm greetings and smiles then Narcissa had had to deal with for most of the summer.
