Pure-Blood Families

The Sacred Twenty-Eight

The Pure-Blood Directory, an anonymously published book, claims a "Sacred Twenty-Eight" — twenty-eight families considered to have the purest blood. The Sacred Twenty-Eight are: Abbott, Avery, Black, Bulstrode, Burke, Carrow, Crouch, Fawley, Flint, Gaunt, Greengrass, Lestrange, Longbottom, Macmillan, Malfoy, Nott, Ollivander, Parkinson, Prewett, Rosier, Rowle, Selwyn, Shacklebolt, Shafiq, Slughorn, Travers, Weasley, and Yaxley.

Families that are crossed out have, since the time of publishing, mixed their blood and are no longer considered pure by the author's standards. ((OOC: Please do not create a half-blood attached to the above families that are not struck-through.))

There are many pure-blood families in the wizarding world. The degree of "blood purity" among them can vary, as do the viewpoints on the importance of blood status.

For greater detail on each family there is a link within the family description that will lead to the individual family page. Where things like family trees, members, history, identity, crest, reputation, locations of homes and more can be found. It is important to familiarize oneself with the information provided so that congruity can be maintained. We work very hard to make sure that everyone has their stories woven in together.

Abbott

Abbott_Arms.png

The Abbott Family is one of the Sacred Twenty-Eight, founded in the 900s. Many an Abbott is sorted into Hufflepuff. It is said that Giffard Abbott was a very close friend of Godric Gryffindor and they were neighbors when Godric's Hollow was originally founded. At least one member of the Abbott family can be found living in Godric's Hollow to this day. Many an Abbott has taken a Mayoral position and were charged with keeping the veil between the Wizards and Muggles that share the village as opaque as possible. Currently Robald Abbott is considered the patriarch of the Abbott Family. Their point of view on purism is less about purism and more about the Statute of Secrecy, most in this family are very proud members of the Preservation Society.

Dippet

Dippet_Arms.png

The Dippet Family family tree looks quite a bit like a long trunked tree that suddenly expands like a burst of fireworks at the bottom with lots of roots. The reason behind this is steeped in myth and rumour. But the fact stands that until 1878 there was one lone male heir born after Armando Dippet's birth in 1637. Also notable is that these heir were longed lived. Though in this day and age the Dippet Family has normalized to a more typical elongated wizarding lifespan and family size. Armando served as Headmaster of Hogwarts from 1925 to 1938 and is considered the Patriarch of the family. Every male heir has been named after Armando since his own son was born. They all take on nicknames based on their suffix.
((Dippet Characters open for creation: Armando "Decker" Dippet the Tenth (b. 1902). His wife -?- Dippet nee Lowe (b. 1902). Their eldest, Armando "Leven" Dippet the Eleventh (b. 1922). Their undetermined 3 other children (b. 1924, 1926 and 1928.). Otherwise the family is closed.))

It is a pride rightly earned since they've churned out a number of accomplished witches and wizards over the years. Researchers, healers, high-ranking ministry officials, business owners and more have all emerged from the Sykes line.
After their home was attacked over the 1938-1939 Christmas Holiday the Sykes family faced scrutiny and in the Summer of 1939 the bulk of the main line moved to the continent to become more heavily involved in the Army of Truth. ((Closed.))

Wilkins

Wilkins_Arms.png

A Healer Wilkins has always been found on the roster of St. Mungo's Healers. Everyone loves a healer and pays them well. So the Wilkins Family for the most part are Well-To-Do sorts and unlike many families their lineage is quite across the board when it comes to the Houses they would be sorted into at Hogwarts. Being a healer takes ambition, brains, nurturing care and guts and gusto, so it all depends on what the sorting hat finds the most of in certain Wilkins'. Most of the Wilkins Family can be located within Wales. Though many have taken up in London, England to be closer to St. Mungo's Hospital.
