Personality
Severus Snape is a very complicated man, his motives and reasoning hard to understand by many of those he meets. He gives off a commanding air, and demands only the best from his students. No excuses are accepted in his class, even from those in Slytherin, though he does show favoritism towards them due to the fact he does think Slytherin is treated unfairly by the school in general... plus Slytherin is the best house and those in it needed someone they could look up to and depend on. He didn't want any of those in that house to make the same mistakes he did after all, and the other houses had so many other support systems in place.
Highly devoted, Severus, when he likes someone, will be loyal to them until the very end. He is completely loyal to Lily Potter and to Albus Dumbledore. Those are the only two at the moment of which he has undying loyalty towards - and while they aren't many, his loyalty is something to be cherished as it will never fade no matter what they do, and as a powerful wizard, Severus would be a better ally than an enemy. Given his intelligence and resourcefulness, Severus has been able to invent many a spell, excel at potions and most magic, even the Dark Arts. Well, Divination was not a strong suit for him at least.
Despite being very much in control of his emotions, when he loses control in some very extreme instances, he really loses it. He'll shout and release magic without realizing it at times. He's very dangerous and honestly its extremely frightening to be around Snape when moments like this come around - you know you screwed up when he starts yelling and looking as if he is about to kill you. He can be a grudge holding, malicious person who takes pleasure in causing others pain which he feels wronged him - or people related to those who wronged him.
Bitter life has made him, given he's never really ever gotten anything that made him happy. He's made a lot of mistakes and he knows he can't make up for them - he's accepted that Lily will never love him like he loves her, but he can't stop loving her. He would do anything for her, but that doesn't stop him from being bitter about the fact he can never have her - that because of his choices and his stupidity he lost her forever. He only hopes she can forgive him.
History
Since many know his history up to a point, I'll keep it short so it doesn't take forever reading over things people already know.Severus was born to the muggle Tobias and witch Eileen. Throughout his younger years, he watched as his mother was abused by his father, even being abused himself, so he would run off to try to get away most of the time. Then he wouldn't have to see it at least. He met Lily not too far, and instantly figured out she was a witch - a muggle born. The two became inseparable. However, when he went to Hogwarts and became a Slytherin and her a Gryffindor, he felt downtrodden given the rivalry and how some mean boys from the train had also gotten into Gryffindor, of course.
Having been ostracized from most of the school body, Severus found himself being friends with other Slytherins, but they weren't good in general - mostly practicing the dark arts. Lily had been angry at him for it, and they had talked about it many times. In their fifth year, Severus had been attacked by the Gryffindor boys, the Marauders, though namely James and Sirius, and he called Lily a 'mudblood'. After that, they were no longer friends and she wanted nothing to do with him. He was depressed and distraught and found comfort in companionship from those who would later join the Death Eaters.
In his sixth year, he was lured to the whomping willow by Sirius Black, nearly dying to Remus Lupin in his werewolf form, but narrowly saved by James Potter. He hated that he was in debt to the Potter boy, but he was sworn to secrecy about Remus Lupin and his 'furry little problem'.
After school ended, Severus joined the ranks of the Death Eaters and soon became one of Voldemort's most trusted servants. However, it wasn't but four years after he joined that he heard news that Lily had nearly been killed by one of the other Death Eaters. Having sense slapped into him, he went to Dumbeldore and begged him to forgive him, and let him protect Lily. After a short time, and Dumbledore understanding why he wanted this, Dumbledore agreed that he would make extra sure Lily would be safe so long as Severus worked for him as a spy on Voldemort.
He became the Potions Master at Hogwarts that year at the age of 21, and the head of slytherin house. The Order knew that he had become a member - and to Voldemort he was a spy for him against the Order and Dumbledore - though his loyalties lay with the Order finally.
