About Him:
Sirius Black was born into the pureblood Black family. Up until he was 16 he lived at 12 Grimmauld Place, London. After that when he ran away, he lived with best friend James Potter and his parents. Sirius did not share the same views as his parents, who were strongly pureblooded and supported Voldemort. When he entered Hogwarts he was sorted into Gryffindor rather than his family's Slytherin House, which didn't make matters better. While at Hogwarts he befriended Remus Lupin, Peter Pettigrew, and of course, James Potter. He, James and Peter became illegal Animagi to keep Remus company while in his werewolf state. Each time on the full moon they would wander the grounds, and this helped them later while creating the Marauders Map.

At school Sirius also had a really bad relationship with Severus Snape, who he would taunt along with James constantly. In the uprise of Voldemort, Sirius, along with James, Lily, Peter, and Remus, joined the Order of the Phoenix. When Harry was born, Sirius was named Godfather. Sirius was chosen as the Potter's Secret Keeper, however, he gave the job to Peter so they could trick Voldemort.

After the murder of Lily and James, Sirius went to Godric's Hollow and tried to convince Hagrid to let him keep Harry. When Hagrid refused, Sirius lent him his motorbike to take him to the Dursley's. Sirius hunted down Peter and cornered him in a street full of muggles, but Peter blew up the street and killed all the muggles. He then cut off his finger and turned into his Animagus form and escaped into the sewers. The Aurors arrived and thought Sirius had killed him, so he was sent to Azkaban for allegedly betraying Lily and James and also of "murdering" Pettigrew.

Twelve years later he ascaped and went to Hogwarts to find Pettigrew. He knew that Pettigrew was alive because he recognized him in a picture on the front cover of the Daily Prophet, posing as Ron Weasley's pet rat. Intent on becoming a free man, after meeting Harry in the Shrieking Shack, he asked him that, when his name was cleared, if he would want to live with him. However, Pettigrew escaped and Sirius was forced to go into hiding. He managed to escape on the Hippogriff Buckbeak.

Since then, Sirius has been on the run. He has let the Order of the Pheonix make thier Headquarters at 12 Grimmauld Place and is still a member of the organisation.
