Elisa Lasowski as Minette Balbine Lestrange (née Rosier), a member of the pure-blood Rosier family. She was a woman of effortless charm, growing up in an environment where grace, beauty, and social prowess were paramount, excelling in all three. With a keen eye for elegance, adding to her ebullient nature, she was beloved by many of her peers, catching the attention of many such suitors who wished to ally with the Rosiers at that time. She was the younger sister of Félicule Lestrange and the older sister of Narcisse Rosier.
But under the warmth of her smile and the courtesy of her behaviour, was a keen intellect, one that understood the subtleties of power and manipulation better than most. After her sister Félicule's marriage to the Englishman Radolphus Lestrange, she found herself capturing the attention of his French cousin, Corvus Lestrange II.
She became the wife of Corvus Lestrange II in 1819, heir of Corvus I. By the year 1829, she had sired him two daughters and a son: Manon (b. 1821), Josette (b. 1823), and Corvus III (b. 1828). Manon and Josette Lestrange were also raised with their mother's exquisite taste in fashion. Minette lived to see her daughters get married to other French pure-blood families, and unexpectedly died of a heart attack at her son's wedding to Eglantine Lestrange.
Félicule Rosier is the original character of @konstantynowitz, and Narcisse Rosier is the original character of @theblackswan-and-thewhiterose.
