Catherine Burke gets whatever she wants, whenever she wants. That's just how it's always been. With her determination comes a strong will and mind, the kind most people fear. She is selfish, stubborn and full of herself. Though she's more concerned over wealth than blood status, it still counts for something.
She always dresses her best, even when she's sleeps. Intelligent with her words, she knows just what to say in order to sway someone, whether it's compliments or black mail.
When she's not scheming alone, she is probably tag teaming with Damien Borgin. Since their families own the Knuckturn shop(Borgin and Burkes) they are often in company of one another. She often pokes fun at Rufus Tremlett for the company he keeps. Still, it doesn't seem she dislikes him, probably because of his name. Her great grandfather is the original co-owner of Borgin and Burkes while her great-great uncle is Igor Karkaroff, a previous head master of Durmstrang. Because she is the next in line to inherit their half of the family establishment, Catherine is very knowledgeable in dark artifacts.
She strives for top marks in school and to be feared more than admired(though the latter doesn't hurt either).
