Well it doesn't matter if you aren't good, you just have to practice. Try using 3rd for a while and eventually you get used to it. In fact, its hard for me to write in first person ^^"
 
Dang guys. I might have to make another character because Fox Crest has one quiditch player, and that's me.
Nah man it'll be like one of those Lifetime inspirational movies, one Fox Crest player holding up the entire team against the tyranny of the Bearglove Beaters :D
 
If it's still okay to join, I'd like to submit this character sheet. :)​

Past/Bio:
Teresa was born to an English father who was on a trip to the States and a socialite mother he met. Both of her parents were Purebloods, but their families' traditions and ways, ideologies were different, and in the end her father's family couldn't accept her. What was more, her father already had a pre-arranged engagement with a Pureblood from his native country.

Thus the circumstances of her birth were... scandalous, especially amongst the English side of her family. Her parents quickly realized she couldn't be raised in the UK due to the ostracization and scorn she and her mother may face, despite their pureblood status. In the end her parents didn't get married, and went their separate ways, their only common interest their concern for their daughter. Her father eventually had a child with another woman who he married, a younger male half-sibling.

Nevertheless, Teresa spent most of her childhood going back and forth between her father and mother, and she was most often criticized or mocked by her father's side of the family. Teresa found refuge in books and in the arts, and strove to be the perfect pureblood despite her less than favourable reputation. She pushed herself to be perfect in everything she pursued, or at the very least she pursued herself to excel. She taught herself how to speak in public and how to play the games between the pureblooded families, maneuvering herself with ease despite the whispers about her.

She taught herself to be strong and withstand the verbal barbs thrown at her, subtle or not, and to bite back. She would not be bullied, she would not stand for it. Outcast in her father's family but taking on their name, she earned the resentment of her relatives close to her age for her aptitude in magic.

Her situation in the US, however, wasn't as bad. She had a few friends from wizarding families that she dearly held close to her. That was the only thing that kept her from complete alienation and isolation from her peers.

She is determined to make the Ashford family recognize her; that is what drives her to do her best in her studies. This makes her something of an overachiever by choice - she's seen as one of the aces in the academy and in her house.

About Him/Her

Personality:

Teresa is a quiet person, choosing to listen rather than speak when it comes to others, but when she does speak she could come off as aloof, intimidating and uncaring. She could also be sly and manipulative, having had her fair share of being verbally hurt or manipulated in her childhood and now she is able to bite back, and she won't hold back.

Despite this, Teresa is also acknowledged as being graceful in a subtle, understated way, her soft-spoken and polite ways with her teachers earning her points. She also knows how to compliment when it is needed or to get her way. She has remarkable intuition and a sharp intellect, when she was sorted it was expected for her to end up in Hawkridge.

The trait that led her to Wolfthorn was her fierce loyalty and her determination - which counts as perseverance - to excel. She may not seem like a person to take to teamwork at first, but if her house needs her she will deliver. She's 'warm' with her fellow Wolfthorns, a soft sort of care and would devote the time to listen to them.

Her determination can make her be 'cold' and 'ruthless' in a way, but what holds her back is her own concern for her friends and people she cares about. If they call her out on it and question her scruples she would step back for them.

Relationships

Father: Vincent Ashford

A loving, if slightly distant and strained, father-daughter relationship. He doesn't know how to communicate with his daughter Teresa, and she doesn't know what he really thinks of her, not knowing what to make of their quiet breakfasts or meals, which are rare, alone together and the quiet 'well done' which she doesn't hear often, but wants to hear more. She wants his approval more than anything.

Mother: Elizabeth Bartlett
Her relationship with her mother is warm, but also a bit too smothering for Teresa's taste. Her mother loves to pamper her or show her off to her friends, and is fierce to defend her by saying she is proud of her daughter for who she is - and that is perhaps why Teresa loves her so much. Her mother doesn't understand her need to excel or succeed so much, but would support her in any way she can. Her mother is what keeps her down to earth or stable in times when she feels down.

Siblings: Tarquin Ashford (younger half-brother, 14 years of age)
Her half-brother doesn't really want anything to do with her, and so does she. They don't talk with each other often and usually it is awkward and abrupt, but their relationship isn't vitriolic like she has with her father's side cousins.

Relatives: (Cousins, uncles and aunts and grandparents and many others on father's side. A pair of grandparents, an unclee on mother's side.)
In the past, Teresa was often hurt by her cousin (father's side) barbs at her and her 'uncouth' lineage and her mother's family, but nowadays she's mostly indifferent. She's grown used to it, so she knows how to snark back and actually finds it somewhat fun to get a rise out of them - which is definitely more often than they can get a rise out of her.

She's close with her uncle, her mother's older brother. He's usually the one she confides in through Floo, or through owls.

Family Line of Work:
Her father's family is an old Noble pureblood house, and they usually get their profits from their lands and getting positions in the Ministry. They have much riches and old money, but are in some trouble due to unskilled handling and slight corruption within the family.

Her mother's family is a younger, but still pureblood, family - not a House, but still purely magical, and they get their income from shipping potions ingredients and real estate (even with the muggles). Her mother used to live the high life in parties, but now tries her best to help with the family's finances.

Family Background:
Father's family is not as well known as the usual big names on England's wizarding community, but is still influential enough to be recognized. Her great grandmother was supposedly a half-veela from France that married into the family through engagement. She doesn't know since most of her paternal family dislike her or are indifferent about her.

Her mother's family is small, and most likely a forgotten branch of some larger or older pureblood family, but they are a fairly warm and caring lot. Her grandparents are usually a bit exasperated with her mother's shenanigans that are now toned down, and they are also the ones usually doing the work (they're quite spry for their age). Her uncle, her mother's older brother, is a Quidditch player.

Yes, very warm. She does care about her though.)

Name: Jackson Frost (*laughing. Wait till you see his family members)
Also Known As: Jack
Age: 14
Birthday: July 4th
Nationality: American
Species: Human
Blood Status: Pure blood
Blood Type: O negative (universal donor)
Astrological Sign: Cancer
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Past/Bio: He grew up in a normal wizarding family in Michigan, with two younger sisters and one younger brother. They grew up able to use their magic freely, even though they weren't in a town with a lot of wizards, because they were pretty isolated. They only had to be careful in front of the few muggle friends they had. It got cold up there, and they were pretty used to the cold and snow. Once, though, when he was ten and his youngest sister five, she slipped on an icy rock and went skidding into a nearby pond. It wasn't that deep, but she panicked and began drowning. He jumped in to save her and got dragged under along with her. They both would've died if it hadn't been for their Uncle Chander, who pulled Jack out in the nick of time. It was too late for his sister had a weak constitution, though, and died of pneumonia a few days later.

About Him/Her
Personality: He's first and foremost a fun-loving guy, who's always looking for a thrill, even if that sometimes means breaking the rules, but he's not a rebellious type. He likes playing tricks on people, but when it comes down to it will never be genuinely mean or cruel.
Likes:
- Snow
- Games
- Broomsticks
- Children
- The moon
Dislikes:
- Shoes
- Boring classes

Relationships
Father: Robert Frost
Mother: Muriel Frost
Siblings: Miranda Frost, Gale Frost, Alex Frost (deceased)
Relatives: Chander Wickley (mother's brother)
Family Line of Work: His father is a spell inventor, and his mother is a potioneer.
Family Background: His father's parents were really strict purebloods who insisted he had to be the best at everything and disapproved of his hobby of trying to make new spells. When his father met his mother, however, they decided to elope. His parents thought she was a half-blood, but she was actually an illegitimate child with a pure lineage. She ran away from home because she got sick of the lies she had to keep up with her muggle father, especially since he knew she was another person's child. They met and fell in love at school. Muriel's parents didn't bother looking for her at all, and Robert's actively disowned him, so they're pretty lax about things, and even in the company of other wizards rarely mention their pureblood status. Chander turned out to be a half-blood squib, but he always cared for his sister and helped her run away.

Name: Elissa Cristalle
Also Known As: Ellie, Lissa
Age: 16
Birthday: December 21st
Nationality: Norwegian-American
Species: Human
Blood Status: Muggle-born
Blood Type: AB positive (universal acceptor)
Astrological Sign: Sagittarius
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Past/Bio: As a muggle-born, with strictly "scientific" parents living in Silicon Valley, she had a really hard time coming to terms with her powers at first. She thought she was a freak, and isolated herself from other people a lot for a while, until she was sent a letter to have her attend Lavaeudeen, which was when she realized that wizards and witches were normal, too. She likes the winter, because that's usually when they go to New York, where her beloved grandparents live. It's hatefully cold, but she's gotten to like it for a short while. She doesn't think she can stand much longer than a month of that kind of biting cold, though.

About Him/Her
Personality: A little on the shy side, she sometimes has difficulty communicating with other people, much preferring a good book. In order to hide her shyness, or when she gets mad, she can get very haughty and snooty, scathing and sharp, but in reality she doesn't like that side of herself and always feels bad afterwards.

Both of your characters are so cool!
 
A lot of us seem to have the friends/best friends/love interests sections open, but I don't see a lot of discussion for the roles. Anyone wanna get that started? After all, a lot of these students have been here a while - they're bound to have friends by now.
 
I'm open for any relationships for Carly. She's fourteen and a reserve on quidditch (even though she is deathly afraid of heights/flying)

Form is on pg6
 
Mine are up for both love, enemy and friendship so.
Putting up a new girl too later, so if she is approved by Justaddnuts she's up for it all too. Though I'm not sure if everyone would want to be involved with her :p
 

Name:
Sarah Caro Prierto
Also Known As:
The blind girl.
Titles:
Age:

15
Birthday:
9th february
Nationality:
Spanish
Species:
human
Blood Status:
Halfblood but she doesn't know. So she believes she's muggleborn.
Blood Type:
O+
Astrological Sign:
Aquarius
Gender:
Female
Sexual Orientation:
Undecided
Past/Bio:
Sarah grew up without sight. No one could really understand why, but the doctors believe it is just a lack of connections between the nerves. For she was born a couple weeks early, and no matter how much they tried to make her react to movements. She did learn quickly how to move around, and by the time she was 7, she was reading books for blind children, and she walked around with a stock for the blind. that was how her reality was. She never had seen anything, nor would she, and quite frankly, she didn't mind.
She didn't have to see it when people were cruel, she didn't have to see animals with their bones out of their skin. Yet she could hear.
She started to have fun with flexibility, and with music, dancing around, jumping, everything she could to stay in movement.
She never really questioned why her father was never around. She never saw the look on her mothers face whdn her friends were with their fathers.
She was a happy child though. when she was 9 years old though, she and her mother moved to america though. For her mother had been hired to be a private nurse for some rich guy who had once lived in spain, but had left 9 years earlier.
Sarah here in america was told about the magical world, and that she belonged in it, but she wondered, how could she be part of something she could not see?
But to make it easier for her though, she was taught how to make the ink come up a little more from the pages, shaped in the forms of the letters.



About Him/Her
Personality:

Sarah is the kind of girl no one really notices. She's smart, she's caring about her friends, but she's not loud. Actually, she's everything but that. Her whole being is calm and collected, but ask her a question which is just about knowledge, and she'll most likely know it. Her memory is amazing, as would be needed with finding her way without seeing.
She's loyal to the last moment for her friends, but she's not the revengeful person either. Her mind is the most important though for her, much more important than having the ability to see, so even if given the chance to see, but losing what she already knows, she'd never do so.

Danny's always open to making friends. Might take a while to get close through the wall of lies he builds up, but he's a friendly sort either way. And if our characters might be different ages and in different houses, what obstacle is that in the face of plot friendship?

He especially likes to make friends with pretty girls. Because puberty. He's thirteen, after all.
 
Sarah will pretty much just care about if their voice is comfortable, or if she can trust them not to lead her to a cliff and throw them off xD
 
Nick, if it isn't all to obvious, really keeps to smaller groups that he is able to have an intelligent conversation with. He can be a real dick about that, but it is what it is.
 
I could see Danny and Sarah getting along - she probably wouldn't have to deal with his usual flurry of lies (well, not as much as everyone else) because honestly, lying to a blind girl about things she may need to know isn't funny at all. Plus, a blind girl is an oddly fitting match for a metamorphmagus; no matter what he looks like, he's the same Danny to her. The only real effect of his abilities would be that his voice can be as comfy as she likes.

On the subject of your characters he'd probably also like Cassy. She's bold, free-spirited and wants to rule the world. What's not to like?

Your thoughts, Nat?

Sounds good :)

Edit.
Sorry about the short reply at first, I was outdoors in freezing cold and replying on my phone. So I'll answer better now!
Cassy would most definetly go well along with him, as both are show offs, and with her being into xtreme sports, and figure flying they could definetly be the type of friends who challenge each other all the time.

Danny and Sarah could easily go well along too, and for example where Danny has his strenght in DADA, she has her weakness, while she has a strenght in such as the more academic subjects.

Then it's settled! Friends to hang out with in fast times and slow. Plus apparently he hangs out with girls two or three years older than he is; at that age that's a big deal.

Sarah probaly won't even have noticed what age he is xD
Cassy on the other hand will be like "eh, whatever. If he's willing to jump off a broom in air that's good enough for me"
 
Sounds like they'll get along great. Though the girls might have to put up with some relatively-subtle staring. Not that Sarah's likely to notice. For that matter, if she knew, would she even care?
