Character Name: Rita Skeeter
Date of Birth: 1951
Age: 46
Occupation: Journalist
Hair: Blonde (NO! It isn't dyed, how DARE you suggest that?)
Eyes: Green
Height: 165
Overall Appearence: Blonde hair set in elaborate curls that contrast oddly with the heavy-jawed face. Jewelled spectacles studded with rhinestones. Thick fingers ending in two-inch nails, painted crimson. Blonde curls is curiously rigid (suggesting it's styled with the magical equivalent of hairspray). Penciled-on eyebrows and three gold teeth, as well as large, masculine hands. Bright scarlet painted fingernails and toenails are usually likened to claws or talons.
Likes: Juicy gossips, a good story, fashion and accessorizes, money, winning.
Dislikes: People that sick their noses where they don't belong (coughHermioneGrangercough), failing
Strengths: Turning innocent words into a scandalous story, outraging people
Weaknesses: Arrogance (heh only a little, um, what?!), overall unpleasant to be around (UM, EXCUSE ME?!)
Overall Personality: Rita is extremely nosy and willing to do anything for a good story — from spying on people in her Animagus form of a beetle to sensationalising or outright inventing stories. She also takes advantage of elderly Bathilda Bagshot's possibly fragile state of mind, even giving her Veritaserum,[16] in order to dig up dirt on the late Albus Dumbledore for her extremely critical biography, despite the use of such a powerful truth serum being heavily controlled by the Ministry. Rita tends to portray the people she wrote about poorly, presumably because it sold more stories. However, she can also be very vindictive.
Parents: Lynol and Jessica Skeeter
Siblings: None
Other Family Members: No significant ones
History: Rita Skeeter is a witch journalist who specialises in writing poison-pen stories which tend to be based on false information and misreported interviews while she works for the Daily Prophet, as well authoring a few tell-all biographies. Albus Dumbledore described her writing as "enchantingly nasty" after she wrote an unfavourable article about him.
Notable stories Rita covered include the trials of various Death Eaters after the First Wizarding War, the Triwizard Tournament, and, albeit reluctantly, Harry Potter's account of Lord Voldemort's return to power in 1995 for The Quibbler. She also wrote biographies of Armando Dippet, Albus Dumbledore, Severus Snape, and Harry Potter. Rita's writing tends to be sensationalist, and sometimes outright dishonest. Her ability to acquire information is assisted by her status as an unregistered beetle Animagus.
