IN DEPTH: While the ideals of pureblood supremacy may have somewhat (or completely) escaped her older siblings, they seem to have taken on doubly strong in Cecilia. Yes, she is better than you and yes, if you don't act to her preconceived notions of 'right', she will tell you so. It is worth noting, however, that any slight patience that she may have is, at least, afforded to Nick and Adamina--or, well, was is probably more accurate.
Her brother leaving the family in favor of a Muggle was a bit more than Cecilia could take and she snapped completely, shutting him off to her. In truth, this is her way of covering up how hurt she was by what she sees as a personal betrayal. As a result, she had recently become overwhelmingly insecure towards relationships and fears rejection and abandonment much more acutely than before. For this reason, Cecilia is determined to keep a close eye on Adamina. Fearing that her love of Muggle comics is an indicator of worse things to come, she uses threats of revealing this to their parents to keep her sister 'in line'.
As much as she would like to think she is (and appears to be), Cecilia isn't quite a perfect lady as her parents would like her to be. She would rather believe it against her will that she is a habitual smoker and an alcoholic, because it makes her feel better about doing it so often--yet, she hides it all from the outside world (as she does with the tattoo she got in one of her... ah... worse moments). She hates more than anything to look imperfect in the eyes of those whom she deems important and would much rather not share these nasty little details with people that don't already know them.
LIKES: Getting compliments, being admired, fancy things, dressing up, muscular boys, drinking, fags, being the best at things, going swimming, and summertime.
DISLIKES: School, having to work for things, dirty blooded ingrates, snobby Ravenclaws, idiot Gryffindors, doofy Hufflepuffs, bitchy girls, and small children.
ALIGNMENT: Death Eaters
PATRONUS: Cat
BOGGART: Reliving being told the news of Evan's death.
FAMILIAR: Sasha, the runt of a litter of black Persian kittens.

BIRTHPLACE: Kent, England
CURRENT RESIDENCE: London, England
SOCIAL STATUS: Maintained by her parents, Cecilia is well situated financially.
HISTORY: If you've heard the story of one pureblood family, you've heard them all and it is no different for the Hookes. Cecilia Jasmine was born to Mortimor and Eliza Hooke on the 12th of February in 1961, a year junior to her sister, Adamina, and ten years junior to her brother, Nicholas. Being that she was neither the oldest son nor the oldest daughter of the family, Cecilia was always somewhat more pushed aside than her siblings, which made her much more eager to please than they were. Not to say that the Hookes particularly paid a lot of attention to Nick and Adamina--their whole take on child rearing consisted of buying their children things to make them shut up and otherwise being generally absent. One thing the Hookes refused to be absent for, however, was the strict pureblooded customs that they taught and demanded their children follow at all times.
This is where Cecilia's eagerness to please her parents came in. It was about the only chance she had to catch their attention, so whenever she could she did her best to outdo Adamina--look the most beautiful, talk up the richest and most important men, never make a mistake in her etiquette, dance the classical waltzes with the greatest grace... however and whenever she could show off, she did. It wasn't as if she wished Adamina ill, she just wanted to shine, and each pat on the head her father would give her was worth more to the girl than the gold he showered her in when he couldn't take the time to truly care.
Away from her parents' eyes it was a different story, anyway. At the early age of fourteen, beginning with a sip of something strong at one of Vivica Avery's famous Slytherin house parties, the young lady began to take a downward spiral that in the years to come would consist of alcoholism, a smoking addiction, and, as of one rather blurry night, a barely-concealable tattoo. Cecilia knew that her parents would not approve in the least, and more than anything, she was aware that her future husband was probably going to approve even less. It is for these reasons only, which she sees as infinitely important, that she tried to stop--numerous times. However, she never managed to get close to straightening up until her boyfriend of the time, Evan Rosier, discovered her tendencies and their relationship was put on the tightrope.
With her brother expelled from the family for his marriage to a mudblood, her sister off happy in her own marriage, and parents who cared little for her, Evan Rosier became in Cecilia's late teens to be the driving force of her life and most decisions she made. He was the first man she ever loved and the most important thing to her in the world. However, Evan's double-life as a Death Eater in Voldemort's army lead to his ultimate demise in 1981, sending her reeling.
Her parents, having been counting on their daughter's relationship to bloom into a very convenient marriage for their last child, panicked. As quickly as possible, they gathered up a suitor for her in the well-off Donovan Rookwood, and moved to push the relationship forward. Cecilia, looking for anything to distract her from the tragedy of Evan's death, fell easily into the idea and did her best to learn to love the man she was paired with. However, in the end Donovan would leave her in favor of a halfblood woman--simultaneously leaving her alone and causing her and her parents great embarrassment within the pureblood community.
The months following included many fierce arguments with her parents, eventually leading to Cecilia's decision to move out on her own. She began to live alone in London, having little contact with anyone beyond the clientele of local bars she frequented to feed an addiction she no longer cared about controlling. Her life sat stagnant and sad, a fall from grace from the confident and conceited pureblood lady she had once been.
