-History-
Family: The Acerbi's are an Italian family of Half-bloods and Purebloods. Zita had attended the magical schooling closer to home rather than travel to Hogwarts, Beauxbatons, or Durmstrang the other three magical schools that were close. Their family got on well and weren't quite sure about marrying their daughter to an older man. They welcome their grandson and great grandson enjoying their company. Zita had always been family oriented and loyal to them. It was from her that Theo learned about quality over quantity when it came to making and keeping friends.

The Notts have always been a family rooted in the Dark Arts. A family member had even gone on to publish a book in the 30's that listed the Nott's as one of the 28 only "pureblood" families in Britain. They had followed and supported both Grindelwald and Voldemort. Theodore Sr. had been no exception yet sought a wife outside Britain. A stern and strict father, he was too busy keeping the family from being disgraced to spend much time rearing his son. However he did make sure that his son was a proper Nott, taking up the boy's education after his wife passed.

Zita and Theodore Sr's marriage had been one of politics as well as convenience. They both needed a spouse, Theodore an heir and Zita wanted a child. Both met one another while queued at a bank. After an exchange that didn't end, they spent the afternoon together walking around Venice. They had many common interests and did care for one another by the time they decided upon a marriage. It had been tragic as well as devastating to both Theo Sr. and Jr. to witness her demise. Zita had been working on a potion when Theodore had a bout of accidental magic. The magic and the potion didn't react well having adverse reaction. Both father and son blamed Theodore Jr for Zita's death.

Personal: Loved spending summer's in Italy with his mother until her death. After she died his father didn't want to spend as much time there and they mainly lived in the Nott family home.

During his time at Hogwarts Theodore was the epitome of a Slytherin. While other Slytherins such as Draco formed cliques, Theodore stayed out of it yet wasn't on the fringes. When someone singled out a slytherin or the slytherins were attacked, he would join ranks with his house. Not necessarily nasty but was constantly guarded.

It wasn't until his fifth year that he endeavored to try his hand at a newspaper. It had started out as a way to take on some responsibility as his father's heir. In order for his father to be able to retire, Theodore started to publish and circulate a paper that had the Dark Lord's views and purpose. His father had praised his foresight of getting word to his classmates while they were still in school. Along with actual facts his father would pass to him, Theodore had a page he dedicated to the school gossip which he would make fun of. It wasn't until he was close to graduating that he decided upon the paper as a career choice.

Directly after graduating Hogwarts Theo went to visit his family in Italy. While staying at his family's home during the summer he had a brief affair with a fellow vacationer. It was the first time that Theodore believed himself in love, spending as much time as possible with her unknowingly fathering a child. When the summer ended she disappeared after rejecting his marriage proposal. A bit bitter, heartbroken and jaded, he returned to Britain to begin his internship. When he got his credentials, Theo sought a place to establish and start publication of The Gordian Knot. During the early stages of the paper he began a relationship with one of his reporters which led to marriage then divorce. It did not end amicably resulting in several arguments and Theo firing his ex-wife. Learning from the experience Theo kept work and personal life separate. He hasn't wanted to get married again causing a tiny bit of strife with his current girlfriend and mother of his son Titus.
