general;;
Rodolphus has always had a lithe frame. It's not without strength, but his muscles have always been more lean and toned than a hulking menace. Blade thin, might be a good way to describe him. He has a very regal look to him, with high cheek bones and a straight nose. Rodolphus can be read easily by looking at his eyes. Sharp and often glinting with a deranged light of malevolence, it clear when Rodolphus has murder or something far more sinster on his mind. There's also the lack of sleep he gets made clear from the dark circles under his eyes. When he grows angry or frustrated, the whites of his eyes get bloodshot and give his already fearful appearance an unneeded boost. His hair is a very dark brown and he keeps it a little long, the strands tending to be wiry and have a mind of their own. There are a few silver hairs running through his thick hair, an odd group of them being very prominent at the front of his head.

He keeps his dress fairly simple, but clearly tailored perfectly for him. He likes his things to be well made, but doesn't care much for "frills" and "fancy". Often a white buttoned shirt with a grey vest and black slacks are all he needs. He does have a leather coat that he will sometimes don in place of his wizarding cloak. When the weather calls for it, or the mood strikes him, Rodolphus has a pair of grey fingerless gloves that he likes to wear. He has a few scars on his body, mostly from mudbloods and muggles that put up fights before he was ready to kill them. There is, of course, his Dark Mark but other than that, Rodolphus has no other distinctive markings.

To say that Rodolphus is a complicated man is perhaps an understatement to some and a far greater compliment than he deserves to others. Indeed, talk to a family that he's "touched" and Lestrange is nothing more than a blood thirsty lunatic servant of an even darker master. Killing on a whim but not without great pleasure and delight, often the most fearful thing those precious few that manages to elude him is his deranged smile that is always on his face. Since becoming a Death Eater there wasn't one mission, one order that he's ever so much in flinched at carrying out. He'll as soon utter 'Crucio' as he would breathe. And while he's never been lax in using the killing curse when he's through playing with his "toys", if it a particularly hated target or if the mood simply strikes him, Rodolphus doesn't mind using other more muggle like means in killing them.

Man Behind the Monster
And what of those that he calls allies? What is his demeanor toward them? Honestly, it's indifferent to most of them. They are not his master and could never even pretend to be. Unless he's got a reason to think otherwise, Rodolphus doesn't bother with them. His upbringing has of course taught him how to be civil but that really about it. He does keep an eye out for those that seem to have some promising talent and intelligence so his affections are reserved for them somewhat. And what of love, any room in him for that with all that hate and devilry? Seems there was room for a tiny bit and it's always been for one person. It's a bit sad to those that are close enough to notice it and indeed, Rodolphus's greatest weakness is his devotion to Bella. It seems that no matter how much she dismisses him, plays him for a fool, someone beneath her, Rodolphus is too blind to see it. He knows her strongest love is for their master, but since seeing her at Hogwarts, his heart has only been hers. And it's taken years of stomping. It doesn't matter to him, he's always backed whatever Bella has done and whether she'd do the same for him, he doesn't care. He'll always be at her side and she'll always have his respect.

Rodolphus was the first son born to the Lestrange family and it seemed like his path in life was set in stone before he was barely a day old. His early years, Rodolphus was taught to have great pride in his family and to understand exactly who they were in the world. A prideful boy and with an air of intelligence around him, Rodolphus spent many hours in his father's libraries pouring over old texts and books. His mother taught him finer things like how to act in the company of others and more refined things like playing the piano, a passion that he has kept all through his life.

When Rodolphus was ten, his father was killed, murdered by some auror. Deemed an accident, Rodolphus's murderous streak was woken. The auror had been some mudblood and now, he really knew what his father had been speaking over when telling him that these people were no better than insects.

Starting at Hogwarts, Rodolphus was placed into Slytherin. He fit in well and quickly made several friends. Even as an eleven year old, it was clear that Rodolphus was a dark little boy. His humors were rarely lighthearted and there wasn't much that made him feel sad or pity for others. He was cold to most of the people in his house and cruel to those that weren't. Growing up through his years at Hogwarts, his coldness warmed some as he found a few students he could tolerate.

That shell was broken first by Bellatrix Black though she would most likely refuse to give him the time of day if he asked for it. His fourth year, Rodolphus's opinions of mudbloods were well known and he didn't care. He already knew what he wanted to be after leaving Hogwarts and nothing would stop him or change his mind. From his fourth to sixth year, Rodolphus played on the house team as a seeker. Graduating from Hogwarts with high marks, he was loathe to leave Bella behind for a year, but he was also eager to begin his work for his master.

That year following his graduation, Rodolphus earned his frightening reputation quickly. Easily counted among the most feared of the Dark Lord's servants, Rodolphus found with each killing, he felt like he was finally avenging the death of his father. It came too easily for him and the year proved to be an enjoyable trial of fire. The summer that Bella graduated, he married her. While he had hoped it would bring them closer, it didn't. But he didn't place the blame on her and only let himself get more involved in carrying out his master's will.

Once that idiot Dumbledore was murdered, Rodolphus found that he no longer had much in the way of restraints. With little to stop him from murdering as he pleased, Rodolphus Lestrange has only become more bloodthirsty.
