The Creation
Name: Nagini. (Real Name Unknown)
Nickname: None.
Species: Animagus.
Gender: Female.
Age & Birthday: Unknown.
Appearance:
Serpent;;
As a serpent, her most seen appearance, she is very threatening – and very scary. Most people have a fear of snakes, and Nagini only heightens that fear if they are unfortunate enough to come across her. Her eyes are red, and unblinking as all snakes eyes are, a narrow dark red slit through the middle – and bright red outlining it. Her scales are different shades of green – she resembles an Emerald Tree Boa, but is very much large in size.
As far as teeth go, they are very long and sharp – and her venom is most potent, but she will only use it as the Dark Lord commands her to.. Unless she’s just feeding.
Human;;
Her human form used to be something that none but the Dark Lord had seen - but now, at the new Hogwarts, she stays in such a form. It has taken her some getting used to, after all these years of being a serpent... But she is slowly growing accustomed to it.
Though she is as old as the Dark Lord himself, she does not look it, staying as a snake for the majority of her life has kept her real self young and un-aging. Of course, there are a few sure-fire signs that she isn’t human. Green-tinted hair, for one, something she can’t get rid of no matter how hard she tries. And her eyes still hold that small flash of red in them, and her gaze is most penetrating.
Her skin is pale, and if you look closely, you might see a green tint to that as well. And, though she is very large as a snake, she is quite small as a human, petite and almost frail. That is mostly because she doesn’t exactly gain the nutrients she needs as a human when she is feeding as a snake, but that doesn’t bother her – she hardly spend anytime in her human form.
Attire: Obviously, in her serpent form, she cannot exactly wear clothing. However, in her human form, she chooses to be quite simple – perhaps a simply emerald dress and a dark cloak. She didn’t used to spend too much time in her human form – until now – so she doesn’t exactly have a ‘fashion sense’. She could care less for such a thing anyways. Though, if she did actually define her style, it would be anything that is form-fitting, flexible, and preferably in green or black.
House (If applicable): She was in Slytherin, when she went to Hogwarts many years ago.
Wand: 13 ½ inches, Ebony, Basilisk Scale Core.
Patronus: A serpent, of course!
Boggart: The death of her Master.
The Potential
Alignment/Occupation: Voldemort’s most loyal servant and pet – as well as the Head of House for Slytherin, and the Transfiguration Professor.
Personality: Nagini is, for lack of a better word, obedient. If the Dark Lord tells her to be nice – she’ll be nice. If he tells her to attack someone – hey, she’ll attack someone. Anything he says, she’ll do. Her personality is mostly based off his own, the bond between them as Horcrux and Master allows her to feel his emotions, and see through his eyes on occasion.
By default, she is vicious – a very hungry snake that will stop at nothing to carry out her Master’s orders. She enjoys it as well, there is nothing that pleases her more than to see the life drain from her victims eyes, and the praise she receives from the Dark Lord for carrying out his orders perfectly.
She is very jealous as well, when it comes to the Dark Lord. No Death Eater will ever make it to the point where they are as respected and appreciated as she is in the Dark Lord’s eyes, she makes sure of that. She isn’t fond of some Death Eaters who are always striving for the Dark Lord’s attention – such as Bellatrix Lestrange, and Lucius Malfoy. If they get too close, she isn’t afraid to give them a hiss, or even worse on occasion – strike at them.
Just don’t get too close, my friends. Nagini isn’t a nice snake… Or human, for that matter.

The Story
History: Nagini [real name unknown], Voldemort's loyal 'pet', is a venomous serpent the Dark Lord is able to communicate with due to his ability to speak Parseltongue, the language of snakes.
However, there is more to this story than originally meets the eye.
Imagine a world in which one witchling finds herself curious of the Dark Arts at a young age. A twelve year old girl who delights in other's suffering, rather than skipping off to pick flowers in the field with other children. A child who keeps snakes as pets, despite her parents repeated attempts to place a cuddly kitten or loyal pup in her stead.
And so was the life of Nagini.
Perplexed by their daughter's behavior, the young pure-blood couple opted to homeschool Nagini. She spent relentless hours in her room, buried behind stacks of school books, basking in the knowledge set before her. Finding it unchallenging, Nagini moved on, sneaking advanced books from her aging grandparents house. Several books in particular drew her interest, and at the tender age of thirteen, Nagini was memorizing curses and jinxes that magical school's wouldn't mention to students until well into their sixth year.
It was Fated that this path would, undoubtedly, lead the young girl into trouble. Hogsmeade. A fateful trip to the famed village would be the end of childhood innocence, and the beginning of a darkened path.
Nagini hadn't put much thought to the fact she was able to speak to her beloved snakes. Whilst sitting on a bench, nursing on a butterbeer, a stray serpent happened upon the young girl. A single hiss, and Nagini scrunched her nose, replying to the snakes contemplation of a taste of flesh.
Nay, you will not bite me if you are wise.
The reply, however, came out in a gurgling mess of hisses and clicks. A passing group of Hogwarts students overheard the exchange, and confronted the girl, speaking to her as though she were a loon. The sore temptation to jinx the lot was hard to resist, and as she excused herself, the first stone was thrown, quite literally, by a mudblood. A chase insued, and only when cornered did Nagini learn of her metamorphmagus ability.
Madam Pomfrey was quite surprised by the four venomous bite wounds that were brought to her that day.
Quite pleased with herself, Nagini remained in Hogsmeade, and mingled with the remaining students, listening to the crazed tales of the misadventures of one particular group of students. She went to leave, accidently bumping into a lone figure as he approached.
He hissed.
She hissed back.
And so the deadly alliance began.
The Present: In the last battle featuring the Order of the Phoenix, the battle that led to the Dark Lord’s second rise in power, she revealed her true form. Neville came slashing at her with a sword – and she knew he meant to kill her, only to destroy the Dark Lord himself. Voldemort had commanded her never to show her human form to anyone but him, if that, but she knew this was the one time she could disobey such an order. Just as the boy lifted the sword to behead her…. Her scales turned to her and skin, and limbs began to grow. In the shock of seeing such a thing, Neville’s guard was down – and she was able to disarm him, as well as knock him unconscious.
That turned the tide of the battle for the better (for Voldemort, anyways), and soon… The Order of the Phoenix and Harry Potter was no more.
Over the years, as Voldemort became the Minister of Magic, and Hogwarts was reopened as a school of Dark Arts – now that Nagini’s secret was out… Voldemort wanted to make sure he could put her to the greatest use. And so, he assigned her to be the Head of Slytherin House at the new Hogwarts, as well as the Transfiguration Professor. She resides at Hogwarts now, but continually visits her Master, for she cannot bear to be away from him for too long – after all, she is the last part of his soul.
