It has been decades since the fall of Voldemort and his followers. A lot of progress has been made since then. The Ministry underwent massive reform under the administration of former Minister Kingsley Shacklebolt. Pureblood-centric laws have been abolished, and the ministry, allegedly cleansed of its corruption and prejudice, has never been better. Progress, in a smaller scale, has also been made in strides: the wizarding world has shed its old-fashioned ways and begun adopting modern technology and pop culture.

Some say that these changes are for the better, but there are those who would argue otherwise. For not all changes have been good; and sometimes what is proclaimed to be progress is, in fact, the opposite.

In 2019, the Progressive Society for Worldwide Peace and Cooperation (PSWPC) forced the Ministry’s hand to reveal itself and the existence of the wizarding world to muggle society. Many believed this was for the best, that it was high time for both worlds to co-exist. And yet, relations between the two remain hostile.

It is the dawn of a new decade, and the polarizing political climate and sensationalist media have had a dire effect on the people. Misinformation and panic have been spreading. Although Voldemort was defeated years ago, his influence still remains. More and more, as society grows ever polarized, people are starting to regress to old habits. There are those who claim that Voldemort was an innocent man. And at least half of the wizarding population has begun rallying behind his modern incarnation, Julius Ainsworth, whilst loudly proclaiming their discontent for the current Minister.

Many believe that there would be a war soon. The only question is when.
CHAPTER I. WHISPERS IN THE DARK

Date: August 30th, 2020
Time: 11am
Event: Shopping for School Supplies
Weather: Sunny

It is a day before the start of term. Muggle-wizard relations are still tense in the wake of the recent terrorist attack. In order to ensure the safety of wizards and their homes, muggles are no longer permitted within any wizarding town or establishment. Meanwhile, the students of Hogwarts are to do their shopping in groups. The Leaky Cauldron--a pub that once connected London and Diagon Alley--has recently been closed down, forcing the students to take a different route to get to the shopping district.

It is a good thing that the professors of Hogwarts are watching over the students and taking lead. In this tumultuous time, these understandably anxious teenagers are easily frightened. With the professors around, things should go relatively smooth-sailing.

WELCOME TO HOGWARTS
  • x
    Dear X,

    We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted to Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Herein, you will find a list of duties and a form that must be completed 7 days upon reception.

    Term begins on September 1.

    Awaiting your owl,
    Minerva McGonagall
    Headmistress
  • x
    RULES:

    1. GM word is law. I'll try my best to take everyone's suggestions into consideration, but I will always have the final word. If you don't agree with the way I run things, that's perfectly fine. The door won't hit you on your way out.
    2. Abide by the fundamental role-playing rules. This means no godmodding, powerplaying, and so on.
    3. I expect you to keep up without constantly needing my aid. This means posting for all your characters on time without needing me to remind you. In addition: I don't mind questions, but if it's something you can easily do some research on independently (i.e. "Did someone interact with my character?", "Did Snape do that thing that one time in the books?"), then please do the necessary legwork yourself.
    4. This is an adept role-play, so I'm going to require more than just one-liners. No novel-length posts though, please. Just keep it straightforward and provide enough material for others to work with.
    5. Newcomers are limited to two characters max. After a month, I may allow them to create more characters depending on their activity.
    6. Do not post OOCs anywhere. Feel free to join the Discord server if you feel like chatting up with the rest of us.
    7. Canon characters are non-playable. NPCs are non-playable unless stated otherwise.
    8. Ensure that your bbcodes are mobile-friendly, or I will ask you to edit them.
    9. Don't post WIPs.
    10. Until I approve your character sheet(s), don't post in the IC thread. Let me know if you ever edit your character sheet in the future so I can re-approve it.
    11. Character face-claims are not required, but a description must be provided. Should you choose to provide a face-claim for your character, stick to art face-claims only.
    12. Prior to character creation, have a gander at the announcements to see the current cast restrictions.
    13. All IC posts must distinctly specify the character's current whereabouts. Place the location either at the very top or the very bottom of your post. Placement is up to you, just make sure that the information is distinguishable from the rest of the text.

    POSTING EXPECTATIONS:
    You are expected to post at least once every two weeks.

    - To illustrate, if someone interacts with your character today, you will have at the very least 7 days before the next Sunday (JST) to reply. The deadline always falls on a Sunday.
    - If you fail to meet the deadline, your character will be skipped over. If this happens enough times or happens twice consecutively without ample prior notice, you may be removed from the role-play as a result.
    - If you need to go on hiatus, you may. However, as with everything else, this also has a limit. Everyone is permitted 25 days of hiatus, which will reset every three months. If this is too little time, dropping out may be the best course of action for you. You can always come back eventually, provided some time (at least three months) has passed since your leave.

    Should you drop out, your characters will be archived here.

"There you are! I've been looking for your stupid ass everywhere." Joan yelled from across the room, once she had made out Jasper's distinct form sitting at one of the tables. The Hog's Head was not the sort of place Joan would normally visit, but she had heard from others that she would find her friends here. Which she did, sure enough.

But Jasper wasn't alone. At the same table sat another familiar face. It was Elizabeth from her year--someone she had barely exchanged a word with. Joan had always found Elizabeth and her group rather "uppity"; for the most part, they kept to themselves. Elizabeth was the only one out of the entire trio that seemed outgoing, almost normal.

Yet Joan had never liked her... for whatever reason she couldn't quite put a finger on.

Joan took to resting both arms on Jasper's head, as if he were a table. She gave no indication that she had noticed Elizabeth at all, more out of awkwardness than spite.

"So do you still want to go to the Shrieking Shack or not, mophead? Or are you too chicken?"

Henry Chen
SEVENTH YEAR HUFFLEPUFF
j-boy - phoenix
PERSONALITY
At the core, Henry is a well-intentioned guy who values friendship over everything else. People have always been a constant presence in his life, partly due to growing up in a large family and the fact that his sleeping condition requires people to look after him. Because he's never really experienced being alone for any extended amount of time and has made a habit of relying on others, he likes to surround himself with people when he can. It's the kind of environment he thrives in the most. Otherwise, he gets anxious, bored, and restless fairly quickly, which he despises.

It doesn't take much for Henry to like you. All it takes is patience and a heaping helping of good humor. After all, he is something of a goofball, even if his jokes mostly consist of lame one-liners, a whole lot of teasing, and self-depreciation. In his mind, if you can appreciate his jokes, you're golden.

His lackadaisical, easy-going nature means he is not exactly the most forward-thinking. Things like academia and ambition are simply not on his list of priorities. He lives in the moment, preferring to go where the tide takes him rather than forge a path for himself. It's been a source of frustration for a lot of his closest friends and family, because Henry could go very far in life if only he put more effort in his studies. However, their advice would only go in one ear and out the other, so it would seem useless to try and make him change his outlook on life.

BIOGRAPHY
Henry was born in Hong Kong to half-blood parents, which has him eternally confused if that makes him a pure-blood or a half-blood by extension. In general, however, the Chens have never really regarded blood purity with any importance; in fact, they are known to be open-minded folk who have willingly immersed themselves in muggle culture. That was the kind of environment Henry grew up in, which makes up a lot of his core values.

The family Chen (plus extended family, because the Chens stick together like glue) moved to America when Henry was barely a year old. It was there that he spent much of his formative years studying in a muggle school. It was rough in the beginning due to his rare condition and wizarding background.

Just before his eleventh birthday, his parents decided to send him to Hogwarts because they had heard plenty of good things about it. His age also meant it was high time to send him to a proper wizarding school, and a boarding school in Britain seemed like the perfect fit due to their Hong Kong roots.

They were, of course, worried that this might be too much of a change for young Henry, who had always been so close to his family and friends in America. Yet, as ever, he managed to mold himself into the new environment fairly quickly.

RELATIONSHIPS
[ Audrey Chamberlain ]
Henry and Audrey are good friends and look after each other being that they're both in Hufflepuff. Though Audrey looks after Henry more than the other way around, and sometimes this ends in hilarious little accidents, like Audrey getting trapped underneath a sleeping Henry after the latter has fainted.

[ Benjamin Chamberlain ]
Ben once sent a bludger flying to Henry's nuts during a Quidditch match between Slytherin and Hufflepuff. Henry was in tears and strapped to his bed in the infirmary for weeks before he could walk again. The incident traumatized him so deeply that he can barely even look Ben in the eye, much less talk to him.

[ Anastasia Fitzgerald ]
Annie is almost something like a mother figure to Henry. Ever so irresponsible, Henry frequently needs to be woken up by Annie, especially on school days when he needs to get up particularly early.

[ Joan Lambert ]
Joan has a one-sided competition with Henry, especially on matters concerning Quidditch. It all started when Henry poked fun at her poor aim during a match in their third year. Ever since, Joan has been trying to one-up him, to his own amusement.

[ Lauren Harrison ]
The bond between these two friends is largely based on food. The two love to steal each other's snacks and poke fun at one another. Their friendship, however, goes much deeper than that. It comes to a point where Henry would even deliberately get himself into detention just to keep his friend some company.

CLUBS
- Quidditch Team (Chaser)
- Dueller's Society
- Charms Club

APPEARANCE
Henry stands at 5'3", which means he's a little on the short side. If he's lucky, he'll probably grow another one or two inches in the next couple of years. This is something he is in constant denial over and the only thing about his appearance that he feels extremely sensitive about.

He has messy black hair which makes it look as though he had just rolled out of bed (which he probably just did) and slanted dark brown eyes. Though he is an active Quidditch player, he is notably lanky in physique, which he finds mildly frustrating.

OTHERS
[ A Kind of Narcolepsy ]
Henry's mother had had one too many sleeping draughts when she was pregnant with him, thus Henry ended up with a rare magical condition that is something alike the muggle counterpart Narcolepsy.

What it means is that Henry would often find himself dipping into a deep and dreamless slumber that would sometimes last for minutes, but other days it can go on for hours. There is no known cure for this, but certain potions can keep him awake. It would be dangerous to rely on potions, however, as they can be addictive. He reserves potions only for Quidditch or other important events like exams.

















Deborah Johnson
SEVENTH YEAR RAVENCLAW
PERSONALITY
Deborah is an overachiever; ambitious to the point of being aggressively competitive, smart to the point of being a know-it-all. She hates being in the wrong, and worst of all, she hates losing.

In trying to seem perfect, she has become her own greatest and worst critic. Her devotion to her studies has garnered her few friends. Burdened with her parents' expectations, she hides her true self behind a perfectly erected wall, so as to seem like the daughter that her parents want her to be, or otherwise the smart and reliable student that her professors and classmates have come to see her as.

Living underneath this pretense has given her much anxiety, and though she tries to hide it behind a veil of politeness, it still shows. It shows in her passive-aggressive remarks, her proud speech, her ruthless manner of achieving her goals. Deborah strives for perfection like it's the air she breathes.

BIOGRAPHY
It was in the early 1950s when Deborah's parents met each other for the first time through mutual friends. They had just freshly immigrated from Jamaica and hoped to start their life anew. Because both hailed from impoverished families, they yearned stability and control over their own lives, which they rightfully earned overtime after much hardship and diligence.

When Deborah was brought into the world, all they wanted was the best for her. They wanted their only daughter to achieve more than they ever could. They drilled the same old story into her head: about how they had it worse than she did at her age, but still managed to build a life for themselves. She was a lucky girl, they told her, lucky to be born and raised in a place where she was free. There was much that her parents had to sacrifice to get this far, and in return, Deborah must work hard. She had a bright future ahead of her; all she had to do was reach out and grasp it.

Her Hogwarts acceptance letter came in not long after she turned eleven. She had never seen her parents so proud. Hogwarts was, after all, the school that they themselves had wanted to attend as children, but at the time they didn't have the money nor the opportunity to do so. It was a dream come true for both parents and child—a stepping stone to the promising future so dearly desired.

RELATIONSHIPS
Benjamin Chamberlain (Cheating Buddies?) - It's certainly a strange friendship, if you would call it that. Benjamin once caught Debbie cheating on her homework, to the latter's horror. But instead of ratting her out to the professors, he taught her how to cheat better. Who would have thought that of two of Hogwarts' most prized students?

These days, Benjamin and Debbie occasionally help each other out like secret partners in crime.

APPEARANCE
Deborah is quite simple in appearance. She stands at the average height of 5'4" and prefers to dress practically outside of school robes: her usual ensemble would consist of a sweater or a shirt, a pair of cuffed pants, and her favorite sneakers. There are times when she would go all out with her clothing, but these are usually reserved for special occasions such as dance parties or balls (if she ever even considers to attend them).

If there is one thing that she has drastically changed about her appearance, it is her hair. Deborah has charmed her naturally dark brown hair into a strawberry blonde color at some point in her sixth year. It was purely out of a whim. Her parents didn't approve of her decision, of course, but Deborah refused to change it. She would at least have some control over her own appearance, she had told them, and quite surprisingly her parents left it alone after that.

Alistair
SEVENTH YEAR SLYTHERIN
ABOUT
One might regard Alistair Blackbourne's past as something of a tragedy, though the tragic aspect is so subtle it is often easily missed. The Blackbournes, after all, were pureblood socialites who rested their thrones upon gold and held immeasurable power within the ministry. They were powerful. Untouchable. Nothing could possibly besmirch their exemplary reputation.

But that is exactly where the problem lay.

Being a young Blackbourne boy meant endless social gatherings, numerous private classes held within the confines of the manor, and expectations set much, much too high. It meant growing up at such a young age, sooner than any of the children he knew, if he even knew any children his age. Only excellence was expected from him, and nothing less.

As a result, Alistair grew up to be excessively, painstakingly dedicated. He is anxious to succeed in absolutely everything, when such a feat is impossible to begin with. He would not stand for mediocrity and would go to great lengths for the sake of calibre, even if it means getting on the good graces of his professors or joining more extracurricular activities than he can reasonably handle. Truly, he is a restless thing, too caught up in his family's reputation and expectations to enjoy his youth.

There is a much darker side to Alistair's past, however. The Blackbournes are notorious for adhering to old prejudices, and a lot of Alistair's anxiety comes from just that. Relatives would always compare him to other people, especially those of other races, as though to shame him for being unable to do what they can despite being a young and capable pureblood wizard. A pure abiding hatred for 'tainted' bloods grew within Alistair as a result, disguised under a thin veil of calculated indifference and airtight composure.

RELATIONSHIPS
Effie Campbell -

Elise Campbell - Much of Alistair's childhood was spent with Elise and her siblings. These two even have a photo together with Alistair's hair done, courtesy of Elise's craftsmanship.

Wallace Campbell - For whatever reason, Wallace has been acting significantly colder towards Alistair. This was all done without warning. One day, they were good friends. The next, it was almost like they reverted back to strangers. Wallace would not call him by anything but his last name, and every time they talked Wallace would almost always have a passive aggressive remark to make about him. As such, Alistair tends to avoid and ignore Wallace. But ignoring the elephant in the room only seems to make it bigger and angrier.

Anastasia Fitzgerald - These two have had a rather rocky relationship ever since Alistair's slip-up with Laurie. Now that they're seventh years and both appointed heads, things are bound to go south as they are forced to spend more time in each other's presence.

Persephone Gaunt - They first met each other on the train to Hogwarts, during which Persephone introduced herself as a pureblood and the two bonded. However, it wasn't until the sorting ceremony itself that Alistair found out that she was a Gaunt. Though the Gaunts were very prominent and powerful once, their wealth was now squandered. It was thus poor form for the likes of a Blackbourne to mingle with such kind, though he remained a civil relationship with the girl, seeing as they were in the same house and the same Quidditch team.

It wasn't until towards the end of their sixth year that an egregiously embarrassing incident occurred between them. It happened after their last Quidditch practice when they were storing their equipment away in the broomshed. One of the brooms fell from Percy's arms. Alistair tripped on it and fell onto Percy. In their hasty struggle to get back on their feet, the two locked lips by accident, causing them to fluster even more. Alistair accidentally groped at Percy's chest, as if the two hadn't already suffered enough embarrassment.

Precisely at that moment, Deborah Johnson walked in on them. It was the stuff of nightmares for Alistair, who was very particular about his reputation. He believed himself to be ruined since then, and so he began doing little favors for the girl. Miraculously, the incident never reached public scrutiny, and most importantly, Alistair's fiance's ears.

It did, however, drive a wedge between Alistair and Percy. While their relationship had already been shaky at best, the broomshed debacle served to add another layer of awkwardness for them.

Lauren Harrison - It was a series of unfortunate events during their first year at Hogwarts that sets up the foundation of Lauren and Alistair's rather awkward acquaintanceship. During Potions class, Lauren had accidentally mixed the wrong kind of ingredient into their cauldron, inevitably causing their potion to blow up, earning them both a failing mark. In his frustration, Alistair slipped and called her a mudblood--an incident that Lauren hasn't quite forgotten to this day. The incident also gained him many enemies in the process, including Annie.

Deborah Johnson -

Echo Sayre - Echo and Alistair are childhood friends and also engaged to be married. However, that is by no means their own choice, for their parents (or grandparent, in Alistair's case) had arranged the affair. It is important, after all, for purebloods to maintain their bloodline.

For as long as they have known each other, Alistair and Echo have never really seen eye-to-eye. They have made it their lifelong mission to push each other's buttons to the furthest degree, only made worse by the fact that they know exactly what drives each other mad with annoyance.

As a result, they seem rather close to the outside observer, which is true, though not quite in the way people think it to be. Having known her his entire life, Alistair thinks of Echo as something akin to an annoying sister. Though things seem to be changing quickly now that they have grown older.

Rosa Valentine - Rosa is another one of Alistair's many childhood friends, though the same could not be said for Rosa, who was raised by paranoiacs. These two grew very close very quickly, owing to their strikingly similar personalities. In their youth, they would go so far as to fool the adults into thinking they were arguing, when in fact it was all just a ploy done for their own amusement.

Seeing as the pair spent much of their childhood and early adolescence together, it goes without saying that they both went through a lot of changes side by side. This, in turn, led to a certain... experimentation that neither of the two speak of anymore.

Delynn Von Kronig - There is something about Delynn that draws Alistair to her. It is only ever in her presence that he finds himself stammering, slipping up, or even tripping on himself. It seems he has to be extra vigilant whenever she's around, and he's not exactly sure why. Is this what they call 'a crush'? It sounds stupid, but it seems to be the only reasonable explanation.

When Alistair is not being awkward around Delynn, however, these two can be quite friendly.
CLUBS

APPEARANCE
Alistair stands at 5'9", rather tall for his age. Just like most of the men in the family, Alistair sports long black hair that reaches just above his waist, tied up only when Quidditch or class requires it. He is lanky in build, fair of skin, with grey eyes that seem almost lofty and unseeing. He is fairly good-looking and he knows it, going to great lengths to take care of his appearance, especially his hair and skin, though he tries to do this in secret.

During the weekends, Alistair wears a simple ensemble of button-ups and trousers, preferring somewhat formal but light clothing even in cold weather.

OTHERS
Wand - 13 inches, yew wood and basilisk skin. This wand was passed down from one generation of Blackbournes to another. It was finally given to Alistair just this year, after his grandfather decided it would better serve him. The wand is a very ancient and dark heirloom, long accustomed to the Dark Arts. So far, it has not yet recognized Alistair as its new master.

Beast - A Eurasian eagle owl, given to Alistair as a birthday present. His father had wanted him to write home more often, and thus gave him this gift with the intent to repair broken bridges. However, Alistair cared for animals about as much as he cared for his parents, which was very little.























Rory Thomson
SEVENTH YEAR RAVENCLAW
PERSONALITY
On the surface, Rory seems friendly enough, if not painfully shy and ordinary. One might even call him boring. The boy often keeps to himself, preferring the company of books over people.

But as the saying goes, the quiet ones are often the most dangerous. And Rory perfectly embodies that archetype. He is a man of many ploys and secrets, those unassuming eyes always watching and calculating every move.

To Rory, life is but a game of strategy and manipulation. He is the man who pulls the strings behind the scenes, thriving in the chaos he creates while maintaining a fair distance from it. He's not very good with confrontation. Instead, he keeps to the shadows, a place where he can safely plot against his enemies. Untouched, unharmed.

BIOGRAPHY
The Thomson household is a hectic one at best, as the family is huge and predominated by women. Rory has seven older sisters, raised single-handedly by his mother. A tough feat, for their father had left behind a huge debt when he walked out of their home many years ago. The family, however, is not an unhappy one. At least, there has never been a dull moment where the Thomsons are concerned.

Rory's traumas mainly stem from his experiences during his first and second year at Hogwarts. His classmates teased him and he was altogether outcasted for his slightly feminine demeanor. With no friends to turn to, Rory poured himself into writing short stories. Eventually, the Newspaper Club would notice his talent and invite him to join their organization.

It was then that he realized the true power of words, and how he could use his talents to his favor. He wrote scandalous articles, taking inspiration from the rumors he heard around school and turning them into something much more worthy of the front page. A few words could ruin the reputation of those who used to torment him. Soon, he grew lustful for that power. He realized he was good--incredibly good--at this, at gathering secrets and spreading lies.

Joan Lambert
SEVENTH YEAR GRYFFINDOR
BASIC INFO
Name: Joan Lambert
Age: Seventeen
Race: Half-blood

PERSONALITY
There are plenty of reasons why Joan doesn't have a lot of friends, and it's not particularly because she has a terrible personality, though one might argue that she does. She is simply difficult to get along with. The girl is, above all things, obnoxiously talkative, opinionated to the point of being rude, shamelessly bold and reckless, with a penchant for swearing like a sailor. She exhibits Gryffindor in all its cliche qualities.

Her luck, or lack thereof, is also what makes her largely unpopular among her peers. While she exudes a detached confidence that can make her seem quite intimidating at first, all of that goes quickly out the window once her incredibly bad luck springs into action. For a rather physically aggressive girl, she is also quite clumsy, prone to tripping over herself or landing herself into the most ridiculous situations. This, coupled with her natural inclination for trouble, has more often than not cost Gryffindor its house points.

For all her faults, Joan has a staunch heart and good intentions. Loyal and chivalrous as she is, she would stand by those whom she considers as friends and family through and through. She is also quite sensitive, no matter how she is unwilling to show it. She cries more often than people would expect of her, for there lies a soft heart underneath that cold and seemingly impenetrable shell.

BIOGRAPHY
Born to a pureblood wizarding family based in Canada, Joan had a relatively rich and extravagant childhood. However, this did not mean that the family accepted her as one of their own. Being the product of an illicit affair between her married mother and a muggle meant the Lamberts did not look too favorably upon her.

Joan had spent most of her life not knowing who her father was. His name and a single photo among her mother's possessions were all that she had of him. Apart from that, his existence remained a relative mystery. Her relatives would frequently talk about the man, albeit in tones of condescension and reproach, but even then they would hardly reveal anything personal about him. "Filthy muggle," was what they called him, warning Joan she would turn out the same way eventually.

It seemed that she did, in fact, inherit a lot of his rumored qualities. This only made her stick out more, as if her startlingly distinct appearance wasn't enough. This meant she was further isolated from the family. As a result, Joan grew up bearing an irrational hatred towards his muggle father. It had nothing to do with him being a muggle (after all, she didn't share the same prejudices as the rest of her family) and, in fact, it probably had nothing to do with her father at all. Joan simply despised being in a situation where she was the odd sheep in a place where she was supposed to belong.

When it was decided that Joan would continue her studies in Hogwarts for her fourth year, the girl had half a mind to run away. To think that she would be sent away to an entirely new country like some unwanted object was just too much for her tempestuous nature to handle. But the arrangement proved itself to be better than she had anticipated it to be. A change of environment proved to be good for her, as over the course of the years she has made unlikely friends and found a place that she could finally call home.

RELATIONSHIPS
PM me for relationships

APPEARANCE
Joan bears a striking resemblance to her estranged father, from her green eyes—most notably the way her brows slant into what seems to be a perpetually angry expression—to her straight black hair and tall stature. Her appearance gives her a difficult time as it is a constant reminder of her mother's infidelity. Until now, she sticks out like a sore thumb in her own family, the Lamberts being predominantly blue-eyed and fair-headed as they are.

Much of Joan's clothes are monochromatic in color, only serving to emphasize her paleness and brooding nature. She dresses simply but not unfashionably, with a preference for trench coats and boots during the cold weathers.

PERSONALITY
Growing up isolated for the most part of his childhood has greatly molded Oliver's personality. He's a childish young fellow with an affinity for children—probably owing to the fact that he acts and thinks exactly like them. This makes him a bit difficult to deal with, as he is prone to tantrums and overblown theatrics. The smallest splinter can cause him to burst into (usually fake and exaggerated) tears, sometimes accompanied with melodramatic spiels over how he's just a brush away from death. This does not only point to his low pain tolerance, but also the fact that, much like a baby, he needs and vies for other people's attention. It would make him a perfect fit for the theater business, if it weren't for the fact that he is terrible at acting despite doing it so often.

When he is not being a cocky self-involved brat, he can be charismatic if he puts his mind to it. One can argue this has more to do with his looks rather than his personality, but he also possesses a certain confidence and talent for words that makes his presence magnetic. It's common to see him surrounded with friends and lovers alike, and is even known around Hogwarts as something of a playboy.

Oliver also possesses an adventurous spirit and is certainly not faint of heart in spite of his dramatic antics. He has the innocent curiosity of a child, though this curiosity mostly has to do with travel. He wants to see all there is to see, most of all hoping to one day witness the sunrise with his very own eyes.

BIOGRAPHY
Seventeen years ago, Oliver's father fell in love with a mortal girl. She was beautiful, probably the most beautiful woman the man had ever laid eyes on. He worshiped her endlessly and kissed the ground at her feet. But the girl did not love him.

For the longest time, he was blind to the cold hard truth. Until one day, the girl married another man.

Darkness seemed to take him then. In his rage, he took the girl for himself that very night, while the entire town burned at his feet. He got what he wanted and eventually had a child with the girl, but with each passing day she grew noticeably thin and pale. The flower he had plucked from the lush garden was starting to wilt.

When the baby was born, the girl he used to love was no more. With a heavy heart, he left her there, skin cold and white, eyes dead and unseeing. To another town he traveled. There, he started life anew with his only son.

For the greater part of his childhood, Oliver was bound to his home. The doors to the outside world were always closed to him, because his father feared of what might happen to him otherwise. They only went out in the dead of night and even then, it was only to quench their terrible thirst. Otherwise, they locked themselves in. Day in and day out.

When the town began to suspect something strange in their neighborhood, the two ventured to faraway lands again. This time they happened upon a small community of vampires and easily befriended the people there. It was a nice change in environment. Happily, another vampire family had a kid Oliver's age. He and Elizabeth were encouraged to play with each other, though within the first few encounters the two decided they did not like each other very much.

It wasn't until a fateful encounter that everything changed between them. A girl from their neighborhood was being bullied by a gang of children, due to suspicions of her being a vampire. By a stroke of luck, Oliver and Elizabeth managed to save her. Yet the memory of it remained ingrained in their minds and until now, the trauma of the experience has never quite left Oliver.

Since then, the three have been inseparable. The beginnings of a bond began to form between them that day, for it was then that they realized how important it was to stick with their own kind and to have each other's back. The world was cruel enough not to see that they had their own place in this world too, and they had to band together and fight to keep it. After all, no one else would do it for them.

Kellen Armstrong
Location: Trophy Room
Interactions: Ivy Posner (@ Ghostly Boo)
The room was quiet apart from their uneven breathing. Kellen groaned at the girl’s touch, her lips on his mouth, her bite. It was as if he was running a fever with how hot he was getting. Even though they’d just met, it felt like he’d waited ages for this moment. Those few minutes between now and the first time he’d laid eyes on her had seemed like eternity. And it was clear from her actions that she thought the same.

With her, it was like a constant struggle for dominance, but one he enjoyed. He slipped his tongue between her inviting lips, while his hand travelled underneath her shirt. He’d only just realized he didn’t even know her name yet. Well, whatever. There was plenty of time for that afterwards.

He gripped at her wrist with his other hand, pinning it to the wall, as his lips travelled from her mouth to her neck. He did it slowly, torturously, his lips only lightly skimming over that bare, pale skin. He wanted her to squirm, to beg, to be at his mercy for just a moment.

In the haze of their lust, he didn't notice that one of the trophies in the room had started to wobble ever so slightly, seemingly of its own accord.

Kellen Armstrong
Location: Outside the Shrieking Shack
Interactions: Ivy Posner
There was some racket ensuing in the distance, but it was no more than muffled background noise within this cluster of trees. And besides, Kellen was too preoccupied with other matters to care.

She’d straddled him, and he only pulled her closer, hands upon her waist. The moment her lips touched his jaw, his breath hitched, more out of sensitivity than anything else. His face was still sore from all the hits he’d taken today. Still, he didn’t complain. Neither did he complain about the poor choice of seating. Right now, other things took priority.

His senses were on overdrive once again: touch, as her finger drifted down his chest. Sight, as he watched her. Hearing, as she murmured on his skin. Smell, as he breathed in the scent of her perfume.

“You already know what to do,” he replied, as his hand travelled from her waist to her back, then down, down where he gripped her, before trying to slip into her tightly fitted jeans. With his other hand, he moved the hair away from her neck. His lips grazed from her neck to her ear.

“But I suggest taking this off,” he whispered, “I know you said it makes your ass look good, but it’ll look so much fucking better without it.”

  • Wyatt Ingham
    basics
    bio
    misc.
    ➨ Personality
    On the surface, Wyatt doesn’t convey much about what he’s thinking or feeling inside. He seems aloof for the most part, especially since he doesn’t socialize much outside of his small circle of friends. The boy is averse to meeting new people, as his trust issues would not allow him to open up easily. As such, he can seem somewhat snobbish and anti-social at times. Someone who is meeting him for the first time may think that Wyatt thinks highly of himself, when that cannot be further from the truth.

    In reality, Wyatt is a very sensitive and anxious individual. He may not be easily angered, but he is easily hurt and would feel pain deeply, even if he wouldn’t show his emotions in front of other people. He keeps all his hurts to himself. But there is only so much that one person can handle, and his refusal to seek comfort from friends has resulted in him seeking it through other methods, like self-harm.

    Otherwise, Wyatt appears to be a very “chill” guy with a rather dry--oftentimes sarcastic--sense of humor. Only, he loses his cool when people try to spread misinformation. It is one of his pet peeves and he would quickly correct someone he believes to be wrong. Wyatt likes to learn and get his facts straight, even if he doesn’t exert much effort on his school work.

    While Wyatt is disciplined in some ways, such as his ability to sort his finances properly, he is not as disciplined in others. He can be kind of rebellious, even if he’s not in-your-face about it. He might not outright disrespect a teacher by talking back, but he cuts classes rather often.

    ➨ Biography
    (TW: Mentions of abuse)

    There are three things that Wyatt knows about his biological parents.

    First, that his father, whose name remains unknown, is likely half-wizard half-vampire.
    Second, that his father doesn’t know he exists.
    Third, that drugs consumed his mother’s life, and this is the reason why he was placed in foster care.

    But he did not always know all these things. He didn’t even know there was anything particularly special about him, other than that he had especially terrible luck. Wyatt always found himself in odd accidents, or had strange peculiarities about his biology that he could not explain. Like his irrational fear for all things silver, his “bad allergy” towards garlic and daylight, and his strange lust for blood.

    He’d been adopted by a few families, but he never really found a home in any of them. They called him troublemaker, retard, autistic. Even when he tried very hard to behave, something bad always happened. He didn’t have any friends either as he’d gained a bad reputation for himself at the foster home, especially after he tried to lick the blood off somebody’s wounded leg. Luckily (or perhaps unluckily, as this is one of the reasons why the Ministry couldn’t detect him sooner), his magic powers were largely dormant in his younger years.

    But finally, at seven years of age, he entered the Ministry’s radar and was placed under the care of a lonely Mrs. Wimberg. She was a vampire herself, more than a century old, and she seemed nice enough. At least at first.

    Within only a week of staying in her large manor, she started touching him in places that he did not want touched. But he feared that uttering a word, or causing a fuss, would put him back into foster care. Or worse.

    And he’d already made a friend in this small village of vampires. The last thing he wanted was to be forcefully parted from the first friend he’d ever made. Her family was really nice, too. They’d made him feel like he was a part of their clan.

    He only had to avoid going back home as much as possible. But at the same time he didn’t want to intrude on Sanguine and her family too much. Which is why he was ecstatic when the acceptance letter from Hogwarts finally arrived in the mail. This meant a whole school year away from Ms. Wimberg. By then the abuse had already ceased, but Wyatt could never feel comfortable within her vicinity now.

    It has been years since, but the incident still scars him and he refuses to talk about it to anyone, even Sanguine. Especially Sanguine, because he knows that she will try to do something about it. While he knows that Ms. Wimberg would deserve every bit of Sanguine’s wrath, he also doesn’t want to lose the financial security that she provides him with.

    He plans to move out by the time he’s eighteen and is hustling for money so that he can be financially independent by that time.
