You hear the end of a battle: Glass shattering, wood splintering, sounds of pain. Then carefully peeking around a corner you see a darkly-cloaked and hooded figure fleeing after breaking out of Snape's office. They appear injured. Do you chase after the mysterious figure or check on Professor Snape?

Cold, stern with high expectations of those around him, Snape always has something sarcastic, biting, cutting, or otherwise constructive to criticise when speaking to others. However, underneath all the bitter words and sharp, almost casually cruel attitude runs a deep and fierce loyalty with a willingness to do what is right, no matter the cost to himself.
