Personality: While Severus has a few friends he is more of a solitary
person than a people-person which may stem from being neglected by his parents
as he was growing up. He is an overall snarky person who enjoys insulting people
by using sarcasm rather than outright insults. This means that the majority of
people view him as snarky and unapproachable which he doesn't mind at all though
he would prefer to have a few true friends. He is a secretive person who doesn't
open up to people easily and would prefer to work on his own. Snape is very
methodical and always gets things done if he wants them done and does them his
own way. He rarely, if ever asks for help from other people viewing it as a
weakness though deep inside he desires to be loved and cared for.
Background: Severus was an only child and was born on January 9th 1960 to
pureblood witch Eileen Prince and Tobias Snape a muggle. He grew up in Spinner’s
End in the northern Industrial part of England where he didn’t have the best of
childhoods. While Severus was growing up his father drank a lot and took out his
anger on his wife while ignoring and occasionally hitting his son. While Severus
loved his mother he thought she was weak for not standing up to his father’s
abuse as she was a witch and therefore could have used magic on him though she
tried to tutor him in magic whenever she could. As he was growing up Severus
took a dangerous fascination with potions as well as the Dark Arts which also
steemed from his mother as she was part of an ancient Dark family.
When
he was nine he met Lily Evans and her sister Petunia in the local park where
Lily was performing magic. Severus was immediately besotted with the young Lily
who he introduced to the idea that magic was real. They quickly became the best
of friends causing Petunia to become quite jealous as she had always wanted a
true friend apart from her sister as well as loving the idea that magic was
real.
When they went to Hogwarts they were sorted into the two rival
houses- Severus in Slytherin and Lily in Gryffindor which put a strain on their
friendship as their other friends didn't understand their friendship but yet
they still remained best friends. Their friendship came to an end when Severus
called Lily a mudblood after he was accosted by the Gryffindor males in their
year and she tried to help him. Lily also didn't approve of his and his friends
growing fascination with the dark.
Throughout his years at Hogwarts he
was always a bit of a loner despite his few friends. He excelled in potions and
was quickly proclaimed to be one of the best potions makers ever. Nearly
straight away he became enemies with Black, Potter and their group of friends
but mainly those two. This resulted in from the fact that they were both
attracted to Lily who wouldn't give James the time of day as well as Severus's
fascination with the dark which Potter was strongly against. Their petty pranks
and teasing turned slowly into full out bullying on the Gryffindor's part which
made Severus hate them even more. They could get away with anything while blame
was always directed towards himself as he was a 'slimy snake' like Potter and
his friends would call him. In revenge Severus was always trying to find ways to
get them expelled. This war between the three of them grew until Snape got too
curious as to where Lupin went during the full moon and Black told him how to
get to the Shrieking Shack. If Potter hadn't realised in time what his friend
had done Severus would have died. This fuelled Severus's hatred of them even more
and he truly began to hate Lupin at that point as before he only annoyed him as
he wasn't directly involved in the bullying of him.
