Hi! If you are interested in claiming a character listed below, or connecting a family tree of yours to this one then please PM Clara Darcy. This is on a first come, first serve basis so I'm super sorry if the character you want is unavailable.
About the DarcysPureblooded and proud, the Darcys are an old family, able to trace their ancestors all the way back to the 16th century. They've had a firm foot in the door of the ministry for as long as people can remember, and connections in just about every other field to boot.
Over time they have garnered more money than anyone could possibly need, rumoured (and in some cases quite rightly) to be earnt from some unsavoury activities. Nevertheless, charming confidence, power and a natural affinity to lying has kept them out of any
real trouble.
It is common knowledge that the Darcys are tradionalist in their views, with backward ideas like that muggleborns are akin to dirt common amongst their ranks, and their views on women are no different. Expected to bear children, look pretty, marry who their parents say and support their husbands no matter what, they are generally married off quite early.
Disownment is not often done, it being seen as a stain on the family's more or less pristine reputation (though some would say it has been tainted with tales of cruelty and prejudice- all of which are true). But there are a few things that can guarantee disownment, ranging from marrying a muggleborn (absolutely not), to running away, to getting pregnant before marriage. Those sorted into Gryffindor are on thin ice.
Darcys and those closely related to them are recognisable by blonde locks.
