House of Black

The Noble and Most Ancient House of Black is one of the most influential and ancient Pure-Blood Wizarding Families of the Sacred Fifty-Four. The Blacks were among the first members of the Sacred Fifty-Four boasting of being the self-proclaimed heads of the blood purist families in England. Their point of view on purism was extremely strong, to the point of formerly and probably being the most fanatical family in the United Kingdom about blood purity. There is no family in the Wizarding World that more zealously guards its blood purity. Their official family motto is “Toujours Pur”.
