PERSONALITY SUMMARY :
Severus, quite simply, is a tortured soul. From birth he was never actually wanted, so acceptance was something he always craved, be it from his parents or his peers. Meeting Lily Evans gave him that sense of security he desired, despite growing up with a sort of bias towards Muggle borns and Muggles in general. When Evans wasn’t there for him, Severus was ultimately the definition of a loner. He wass victim to relentless bullying and abuse, both at school and at home, making him only more desperate for acceptance and companionship.

HISTORY SUMMARY :
Severus Snape was born January 9th, 1960 to Eileen Prince, a pure-blood witch, and Tobias Snape, a Muggle, making him a half-blood wizard. Ashamed of his Muggle father, Severus began to identify with his mother's family and created a secret nickname from his mother's maiden name, calling himself "the Half Blood Prince." It is implied that Severus was a loner and was a victim of neglect by his parents. This neglect (and possible physical and/or verbal abuse by his father) contributed to Severus' unpleasant personality and cruel behaviour in his adulthood.
Severus' parents lived in a Muggle town near a river, at a place called Spinner's End. This was Severus' home throughout his years at Hogwarts. Spinner's End is an area of poverty, with cobbled streets, broken street lamps, disused factories and dilapidated houses. Lily Evans and her family likely lived in the same town, close to Spinner's End. After watching her for some time, Severus realised she was a witch. He made contact with her and they became good friends. It appears that this was when Severus began to develop a romantic interest in Lily, which was never returned though she regarded him as a friend. During this time he also developed a strong enmity towards her sister, Petunia. This was most likely because she was a Muggle, but may also be because she made disparaging comments about his clothes and residence.
According to Sirius Black, Snape excelled at the Dark Arts from an early age; while still in his first year, he knew more curses and hexes than most of the Seventh year students. He reportedly was friends with a gang of Slytherins who later became Death Eaters, including Avery and Mulciber. Other Slytherins that Sirius mentioned as being friends with Snape included Evan Rosier, Wilkes and his cousin Bellatrix Black (later to become Bellatrix Lestrange). Severus also had contact with Lucius Malfoy, who was a prefect during Snape's first year and who greeted him with a pat on the back when he was sorted into the Slytherin House, suggesting that he treated him kindly at Hogwarts (which could also be a reason why Snape seems to favour Draco Malfoy during his later teaching years). Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew were also classmates of Severus.
James Potter and his group of friends were constantly at war with Snape throughout their school years. Snape's memories, recorded in the Pensieve, suggest that he was an introverted and studious individual, whereas James was cocky, popular, and athletic. Immediately upon meeting him, Potter disliked Snape for expressing a desire to be in Slytherin. Potter's crush on Lily and Severus' close friendship and unrequited love for her also heightened the tension between the two.
