In Character:
Name: Adrastus Mulciber
Nickname: Doesn't really like them, but has been called 'Addy' behind his back.
Age: Thirty-nine
Alliance: Death Eaters
Blood Status: Pure-blood
House: Ex-Slytherin
Likes: Hexes (most the standard, though he has made a hex or two of his own), dark humor, the Unforgiveable curses, attention, being right, his fellow Death Eaters.
Dislikes: Being held back, half-breeds, non-humans, half-bloods and muggle-borns, failing in anything, people who obsess over money, being wrong, being alone, staying in one place for too long.
Fears: Making a mistake that he can't come back from, having a child, dementors.
Goals: He actually doesn't have very many of these, living from day to day. Possibly bringing down as many people as he can with him.
Strengths: Very good at dark magic, especially Imperius and Cruciatus spells. He is also quite durable in a duel, able to withstand a lot of pain and dish it out, too.
Weaknesses: Has something of a temper when people blame him for things, not particularly good with herbology or Transfiguration. While he is very good with offensive spells he is not nearly as good with defensive.
Personality:
Evil would not be far from the mark when it comes to Mulciber. Although he does have a few good traits the majority of what makes his character could never be confused for pleasant. He enjoys inflicting pain on others, both emotional and physical. Not only does it offer a release of a sort, but ever since before he even went to Hogwarts such behavior was awarded with attention and even praise. His happiest memories, for instance, aren't what people would consider happy at all since they involve torturing others and no significant joy outside of it on his part.There is no one close enough to him that he would not sacrifice them if the situation called for it. The Death Eaters, which he considers family, are counted among these.
While Mulciber is ruled more by instinct and personal interest he is not really a coward and he is in fact more intelligent than people give him credit for. He creates powerful bonds with others, or at the very least the illusion of it, so that he may take advantage of it later. It doesn't hurt that it means getting their attention in the short run.
He has been in a few romantic relationships but once things get serious he is uncomfortable and finds a way out of it. Expressing emotions of the positive variety has never been and probably never will be easy for him. In fact, when he cares about something or someone, he tends to throw himself into more violent activity rather than indulge in an ordinary form of happiness. He doesn't really have trouble with the physical affection though. Actually, in friends, lovers, and all else, he is a pretty physical person.
Looks:
Dark hair, light eyes. Pretty average in his height and weight. It isn't so much his physical appearance as the way that he moves that makes him appear almost shifty. Rarely does he have his head bowed, he prefers to intimidate with direct eye contact. He wears suits most of the time but may dress somewhat more casually at home. He has some scars on his body from dueling with others, and also from a backfired spell or two of his own.
History:
Mulciber's future was decided for him, more or less, by the time that he was old enough to go to Hogwarts. His father was a Death Eater and his grandfather before that, while obviously not a death eater, had been practicing dark magic and alchemy. His mother was not necessarily so 'evil' herself but she had been attracted to the image Mulciber's father had in his youth, and didn't do anything to stop the way that he raised his son to be like him.
Mulciber, as Lily put it, has always had a sadistic sense of humor. When in school he was friends with Avery, another boy who would join him in picking on others, and Severus Snape. Even when he was young he was into dark magic and liked to attempt it on students who were younger or weaker than he was. It wasn't until he was an adult and out of school that he was able to use the spells to his full ability on people that would be able to defend themselves.
He followed in his father's footsteps by becoming a Death Eater after school. He was finally able to channel his aggression into something he would be rewarded for – but before long came Voldemort's downfall, and Mulciber was thrown into Azkaban. The experience wasn't a good one for him or his enemies, as like many of the prisoners, his time there only made him worse. Being under the influence of the dementors for so long shaped his thoughts into something more (forgive the pun) demented than ever... And gave him a reason to want for revenge. He escaped Azkaban in 1995.
Unfortunately for him, he was landed back in Azkaban after he and other Death Eaters failed to get the prophecy for Voldemort in the Department of Mysteries. Just recently he was released and is overjoyed to be able to stretch his legs. And, you know, destroy people. He finds particular enjoyment in killing muggles to scare muggles and wizards alike.
