( renee rapp, nineteen, demi woman ) hey, was that AURELIA TREMBLAY passing by? so much has happened recently; I haven’t seen the PUREBLOOD in forever, but I’d recognize HER anywhere. rumor has it the FIRST YEAR year is studying to be a JOURNALIST. they always reminded me of VILLAIN BY JULIA WOLF. I’ve also heard they’ve been recruited by THE KNIGHTS OF WALPURGIS. but despite all that I think they’re still AMBITIOUS, OBSERVANT & VIVACIOUS and DISHONEST, CALCULATING & SUPERFICIAL. and the BEAUXBATONS alum still reminds me of practicing what you're going to say in the mirror until it's perfect; the nervous giggle that follows a secret spilled over drinks; the echoing clack of high heels running in an empty hallway; the deep loneliness that clings to you even in a crowded room; a leather-bound journal that knows you better than anyone. well, then, I guess some things never change.  

seven perfect children in a line for a family portrait each with a path laid out ahead of them, each with a destiny to complete. the tremblay mother saw all, adjusting sleeves on sweaters and quietly critiquing wand grip as they studied. and so she saw, of course she saw, as aurelia slowly became disenchanted with the perfect life of beauxbatons, of france, of their family. and it was she who brought up the idea of attending hogwarts college up during a family dinner, suggesting a slight change to the plan: aurelia’s diplomatic future would not be limited to the country. 

having it framed as a benefit to the family gained her father’s tentative approval, though he constantly reminded them that they needed to continue to behave as would be appropriate — no straying any further from the path than necessary. studying to be a journalist was already a stretch, hence their recruitment to the knights of walpurgis. what was more traditional and appropriate than the original group, one that lasted beyond the life of a single man? 

regardless of a pretty successful transition to life in england over the previous summer, it has admittedly just begun and they find themselves growing anxious being so far from home. regardless they are determined to make their mother proud. .

wanted connections.

new friends / acquaintances. these would mostly be people that run in pureblood circles, especially if they have any french relatives ( even distantly ) as i imagine that aurelia’s mother was probably english or irish. 

future heartbreak. give me a villain origin story pls. need a reason for her to sing/scream this song.

( rudy pankow, twenty-one, cis man ) hey, was that EDWARD “EDDIE” ABBOTT passing by? so much has happened recently; I haven’t seen the PUREBLOOD in forever, but I’d recognize HIM anywhere. rumor has it the FOURTH year is studying to be an AUROR. they always reminded me of A CERTAIN ROMANCE BY THE ARCTIC MONKEYS. I’ve also heard they’ve been recruited by THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX. but despite all that I think they’re still AUDACIOUS, HUMOROUS & PROTECTIVE and IMPULSIVE, DOGMATIC & ALOOF. and the GRYFFINDOR alum still reminds me of messy hair, waking up past noon, loud laughter ; the kind that makes your sides hurt, ill-timed jokes that make you laugh anyway, clenched fists, you’re not okay - but you have to be. well, then, I guess some things never change.   ( autumn, 24, gmt+1, she/her )

full name: edward abbott gender / pronouns: cis man & he/him dob / age: august 1st & twenty-one sexual orientation: bisexual blood status: pureblood loyalty: the order of the phoenix education: hogwarts graduate ; studying to be an auror  house: gryffindor

father: jackson abbott mother: anita abbott née hawthorn siblings:  marcus abbott (brother); christopher ‘chris’ abbott (brother); daniel ‘dan’ abbott (brother) ; jacob abbott (brother — deceased); katherine ‘kitty’ abbott (sister) height: 6′0 / 182cm hair colour: blonde eye colour: blue dominant hand: left distinguishing traits: tattoo on his right bicep that he spontaneously got at 15 years old, sneaking out at muggle london ; messy hair ; dumb grin astrology: leo sun, taurus moon, sagittarius rising mbti: estp enneagram: type 7 alignment: chaotic good

eddie was once the youngest out of five abbott children - well, the baby of the family status only lasted for two years until his little ( and only ) sister, kitty was born. contrary to his mum’s expectations, eddie quite liked being an older brother and having someone to boss around for once ( not that kitty would listen - but eddie enjoyed the illusion of older brother privilege ). 

he had a happy childhood, full of joy, pranks and countless shenanigans that would often result in an injury. but hey, he was having the time of his life - eddie always was. he was set on living life to the fullest and making sure to drag others along with him.

he watched his brothers leave for hogwarts one by one each year, waiting with anticipation at the platform. his time came, eventually. surprisingly enough, the sorting hat had a hard time choosing between gryffindor or ravenclaw, but it went with the former, seemingly the better fit. eddie fit right in among his housemates, quick to make friends.

eddie abbott’s time at hogwarts mostly consisted of parties, doing dumb things with his mates and spending more time in detention than class. the type of person to study 2 hours before his exams after he’d spent the night partying. for someone who does everything at the very last minute ( because there’s time and he can handle it and 100 other excuses ), eddie did get away with a lot of things, to everyone’s surprise.

eddie was always easy to get along with, that is for the people who didn’t mind keeping up with his pace or feeling like they’re talking to brick wall during arguments. but besides that he was easy-going, chill, up for anything and always down to help out a buddy in need, even if he’d known them for a day. 

he did mature as graduation time approached and started taking himself more seriously - though, he was still eddie and you couldn’t take the impulsiveness and the bad jokes out of him. he chose to continue his education and for eddie, there were two future career options - a hit wizard or an auror. he liked to be right in the middle of the action - eddie just couldn’t imagine himself sitting behind a desk all day or using his brain. 

while the abbotts were purebloods, blood purity was never something taught or endorsed in their family. they hadn’t broke enough rules to be considered blood traitors just yet and they didn’t qualify to be on the sacred twenty-eight list. eddie had made friends with both muggleborns, people who were loudly outspoken against blood purity and people from the sacred twenty-eight who’d later support the death eaters or join the knights of walpurgis ( though unbeknownst to eddie ). he didn’t have a solid stance on the matter, not until tensions began to rise.

what was a turning point, though TW SIBLING DEATH was jacob’s death. some of the abbotts were unhappy with jacob and chris being a part of the order ; it was far too dangerous. eddie thought it was cool, not realizing how dangerous it truly was. not until his brother’s life was taken. it broke him. he’s still not used to there being one less person at the dinner table, to not being able to include jacob in his pranks, to set off fireworks in his room in the middle of the night. marcus refuses to talk about jacob and sometimes, eddie refuses as well. he feels guilty; but he just doesn’t know how to cope with his brother’s death in a healthy way. he doesn’t know how to come to terms with that loss.. and he can’t talk about it. END OF TW

to everybody else, eddie’s fine. he doesn’t talk about his problems ( the real ones ), he rarely does, but now he’s shut off completely. in fact, he’s extra protective of his loved ones ( in his own special way ). eddie can’t bear the thought of losing someone else, again. he’s made the decision to side with the order too - not because he wants be in the middle of the action, but because he’s got an actual cause this time.

wanted connections: best friends, ex-friends, exes, past flings, enemies, frenemies, childhood friends, friends that drifted apart, party buddy, partner in crime, fwb, good influence, bad influence, anything we can think of!

( rob raco, twenty-one, cis male ) hey, was that SIRIUS BLACK passing by? so much has happened recently; I haven’t seen the PUREBLOOD in forever, but I’d recognize HIM anywhere. rumor has it the THIRD year is studying to be an MAGICAL ENGINEERING. they always reminded me of I CAN’T QUIT BY THE VACCINES. I’ve also heard they’ve been recruited by THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX. but despite all that I think they’re still LOYAL, CHARISMATIC & DARING and IMPULSIVE, ARROGANT & SHORT-TEMPERED. and the GRYFFINDOR alum still reminds me of leather jackets cracked and cigarette-burned but worn soft; tea made nearly white with milk; the soft static under the music of a warped vinyl; the sound of fireworks in the distance when it’s not a holiday; sprinting through the forest in the dead of winter just to feel the burn in your lungs . well, then, I guess some things never change.   ( aleeza, 25, est, she/her )

Q U I C K F I R E 

Full Name: Arthur Harfang Weasley Birthday/Star Sign: February 6th / Aquarius  Birthplace: Ottery St. Catchpole, Devon England Sexuality: Heterosexual but will kiss his homies good night Relationship Status: Engaged to Molly Prewett Wand: 14″ pear with dragon heartstring core and slightly swishy Patronus: Weasel Amortentia: Wildflowers, loose tea, the earth after it rains, cinnamon, dusty old book pages Boggart: Losing his family

H I S T O R Y 

     The weird youngest child energy is strong with this one. Arthur has two older brothers. They were all close as children, though Arthur could always sense some sort of confusion around his obsession with any and everything muggle from a young age. His childhood was one filled with constant happiness and warmth, unfortunately a rather rare occurence amongst the Sacred Twenty-Eight society he was raised in.

When he arrived at Hogwarts, the sorting hat barely had to graze his head before announcing him a Gryffindor. He flourished in school, the extroverted side of his personality finally clawing through to the surface. God bless any muggleborn student who was able to sit through Arthur constantly picking at their brain. While Arthur was a good student, he was no stranger to detention. He was the first to stand up for any of his friends when his fellow pureblood bullies came around. Many bat-bogey hex victims were sent to the infirmary at Arthur’s hands. While usually behavior like this would be any headmaster’s worst nightmare, Ablus Dumbledore isn’t like every other headmaster. Arthur’s loyalties to Dumbledore run deep and were sprung from the times that the headmaster sided with Arthur that kept his record cleaner than it should have been.

While his parents had made it clear the blood status of whoever he eventually fell in love with didn’t matter, there must have been a bit of pride when he fell head over heels for a fellow Sacred Twenty-Eight member. Arthur and Molly. Even a stranger would know they were made for each other. They began to date while in school, and to no surprise to any of their friends, they stayed together after graduation, if not stronger than before. As the world around him began to fall into uncertainity with whispers of a war brewing, Molly and the love they shared remained constant. After almost eight years of dating, Arthur finally popped the question last year.

After graduation, Arthur started a job as a research assistant in the Ministry. While he enjoyed working with muggle artefacts all day long, he was never fully satisfied. It was hard to feel like he was making a difference while cataloging all day. It was around this time, his old school headmaster made a reappearence in Arthur’s life. Recieving an invite from Dumbledore personally to join the ranks of the Order of the Phoenix was certainly a daunting moment in Arthur’s life; but with the growing list of muggleborn murders or disapperances, Arthur was constantly worried that one of his friend’s names would end up on one of those lists. The decision, though daunting, was easy for Arthur to make.

The offer of a posistion at Hogwarts College couldn’t have come at a better time, as a surprise guest in the form of William Weasley came into Molly and Arthur’s life a few months ago. With their wedding put off to the side in favor of focusing on their new jobs and family member, snide comments from other members of the Sacred Twenty-Eight about forced engagements and an illegitimate son that once fell on deaf ears begin to be heard.

okay  so  here’s  what  you  need  to  understand  about  sirius: 

for  the  first  11  years  of  their  life,  their  identity  was  defined  by  their  family.  being  the  heir  to  a  pureblood  dynasty  came  with  a  lot  of  really  confining  expectations  !  they  were  moulded  to  be  the  perfect  pureblood  son.  though  obviously,  that  didn’t  last  lol

and  then  he  went  to  hogwarts,  and  he  met  james,  and  then  he  met  the  rest  of  the  marauders,  and  he  didn’t  want  to  be  that  perfect  pureblood  son  anymore

so  now  he  shaped  his  identity  around  being  the  opposite  of  that.  all  his  decisions  were  to  spite  his  family  and  show  how  little  he  cared  about  them.  he  was  like,  lowkey  super  self  destructive  as  an  act  of  rebellion.  getting  into  fights  and  smoking  cigarettes  and  getting  a  motorcycle  and  shit.  completely  did  not  really  think  much  about  their  future  because  some  part  of  them  didn’t  expect  to  get  there  ?

they  really  clung  to  this  identity  cause  it  felt  like.  wavering  would  come  off  as  doubt  or  weakness  to  his  family  and  their  ilk  ?  so  they  laughed  off  any  mistakes,  and  made  almost  a  performance  about  how  confident  and  happy  they  were  with  their  life

don’t  get  me  wrong  –  for  90%  of  the  time,  they  were  genuinely  confident  and  happy.  he  and  the  marauders  were  basically  on  top  of  the  world.  they  were  the  family  sirius  had  always  wanted  but  had  never  had.  they  were  popular,  and  charming,  and  treated  rules  as  mere  recommendations.  they  were  only  fifteen  and  became  animaguses,  and  created  a  comprehensive  magical  map  of  hogwarts.  how  do  you  get  better  than  that  ??

it  didn’t  really  matter  if  they  were  impulsive  or  short-sighted,  because  most  of  the  time,  if  something  went  wrong,  there  were  no  real  consequences.  they  could  just  brush  it  off  and  continue  blithely  through  life

a  major  wake  up  call  for  sirius  though  was  when  he  told  snape  to  go  to  the  whomping  willow  on  a  full  moon,  and  almost  got  snape  killed.  obviously  this  was  incredibly  upsetting  for  remus  and  the  rest  of  the  marauders,  and  at  first  sirius  was  unapologetic  and  refused  to  admit  he’d  done  anything  wrong

but  it  really  shook  them  to  have  their  friends  this  upset  with  them,  and  it  kinda  pulled  them  out  of  their  own  ass  ?  tbh  at  that  point  the  marauders  were  probably  the  only  ones  who  could  make  sirius  think  like,  oh  shit  maybe  i  was  in  the  wrong

so,  yk,  it’s  been  slow  going  since  then  but  they’re  basically  trying  to  figure  out  their  identity  when  it  isn’t  defined  by  their  family  (  whether  to  please  or  to  spite  them  )

when  he  moved  in  with  james  after  sixth  year  ended,  and  got  out  of  his  house  that  also  helped  a  lot  i  think,  to  be  out  of  that  toxic  environment

so  right  now  he’s  slowly  learning  that  self-preservation  and  thriving  is  actually  more  of  a  rebellion  than  self  destruction  is,  and  he’s  learning  to  admit  his  mistakes  and  heal  his  inner  child  and  all  that  boring  mature  stuff.  but  don’t  worry,  he  still  does  a  lot  of  fun  dumb  shit  !

at  hogwarts  college,  he  was  on  track  to  become  an  auror,  but  he  kinda  became  disillusioned  with  it  bc  he  doesn’t  really  trust  the  ministry.  partially  cause  he’s  fiercely  loyal  to  dumbledore  and  believes  the  lies  about  him  originated  from  someone  in  the  ministry.  he  also  thinks  hogwarts  college  is  totally  bs  because  he  wants  to  be  involved  and  fight  in  the  war  and  stuff

they  ended  up  being  on  track  to  become  a  translator  instead,  because  they  took  a  mermish  class  as  an  elective  and  found  out  they  actually  have  a  knack  for  different  languages

which  shouldn’t  really  be  a  surprise  really  lmao  given  how  much  they  love  to  talk

it’s  also  just  been  super  cool  cause  he’s  gotten  to  learn  about  different  species  like  trolls  and  mermaids  and  goblins  and  their  cultures

some  other  stuff:

used  to  wear  his  hair  long  but  changes  it  up  a  lot  with  magic  –  the  current  look  is  a  close-cropped  pink  buzzcut

has  their  own  house  in  london  that  he  bought  with  money  from  their  uncle  alphard

got  a  used  tattoo  machine  and  has  been  learning  to  tattoo  on  themself

trying  to  quit  smoking  but  he’s  not  very  good  at  it

got  a  vasectomy  a  couple  years  ago  lol  #childfree

that’s  all  i  can  think  of  for  now  lol

 FAMILY/PERSONAL HISTORY

Frank’s family history is a bit muddled on his mother’s side. His mother was adopted when she was young, so not much of her side is very well known.  His father’s side has direct links to previous immigrants from Korea to England just a few generations ago. The beginning of their last name “Long” was adapted from their Korean last name “Lang”. Bottom was an unfortunate addition. His parents knew each other during their Hogwarts years but never really spoke until years after. They found each other through work and bonded over the way they viewed the wizarding world, which was much different than the prejudice they’d seen at school.

Frank was raised to see the world as full of opportunities but was also taught to be realistic as well, which meant the pressure was put on him at a very young age to be successful. His mother was a bit more no nonsense than his father, always scolding him for getting distracted and never being lenient when it came to his learning. His father was always the one to encourage his creative side and advocate for fun over stress. However if his mother knew of the times that his father influenced him to sketch or write or waste time in the greenhouse instead of study or read, she would have gone berserk. 

His mother was always a bit harsh on him in general while he was growing up. His loud and rather hilarious laugh was shushed time and time again, teaching him to stifle it into a smaller and ‘not as obnoxious’ sound. Her hand was never hesitant to smack him around the head or on the arm when he did something wrong, as well as a few quick under the breath comments. As a child he was always ‘too big’, yet when he began to grow to an awkward and lengthy stature, she began claiming he was ‘too stick-like.’. He always felt like he couldn’t win with her, that he would never be praised by her. When he smiled, she told him his teeth were crooked and when he cracked jokes she always shut them down, instead insisting that he learn to be quiet and respectful. He never understood where it was coming from, yet as he got older and the world became less technicolor, he understood more that she was trying, in her own way, to protect him.

 He continued to adore his parents and everything they had done for him right up until graduation. When he was in his fifth year, his parents surprisingly got pregnant with the first of the three girls, Felicity. This pregnancy caused his already money tight family to begin to feel the effects of being spread thin. They were able to manage, but expectations for Frank grew. Over breaks he worked bussing tables to have small savings “just in case”. But with the arrival of Fiona in his late seventh year, his parents had to decide to turn him out financially.

While he still loved his parents, he held resentment over their continuation to have kids while holding him responsible for some of the finance. He really grew angry when they asked him to leave after graduation so they could have room for the third baby on the way. 

He had to stay with a friend in this process, putting his auror training on hold. Frank felt ashamed having to crash, so he worked again bussing and serving tables almost every day in an attempt to save for his own place. He could only train a couple hours a week. Even these few hours filled up his schedule, so when Hogwarts college was founded he was relieved. Frank could have cried when he found out he was going to get at least some aid to attend. This way, he could complete his Auror training quicker, only had to work a few hours a week, and was able to focus his mind back to the Order and more important things at hand. Because of his delayed training, he only qualified to be a second year while the others he went to school with became third years, but he didn’t mind all that much. As long as he got to break the cycle he was in, he was happy enough.

PERSONALITY

Frank tends to be a bit more reserved than people his age. It all stems from his childhood and being taught to put all childlike behaviors aside, though a bit of it creeps out every once in a while. He’s prone to letting out his loud laughs at a sly joke in class or in a quiet library.

Also, he is very gullible and a bit of a worrywart, though he will deny this to the grave. From the stress of his little siblings being born and all the work he had to put in to help, worrying became a habit for him. He holds the weight of the world on his shoulders. He bottles everything up and is always biting his tongue for the benefit of others. It’s a bit of a problem for the kid because he’s always taking on his friend’s problems and never speaking about his own. In doing this, he tends to be quick-to-anger, but never in an aggressive way. Instead he’d rather shut down, releasing his anger privately when he has the time.

If Frank isn’t working on something for school or reading up on something he heard someone say, he’s writing. As a child Frank never stopped writing, which is luckily a habit he kept into his older years. Though Frank loves being an Auror, he can’t help but always wonder how he would have done as a journalist. His writings that he works on now are mainly just for fun, like reviews of muggle comics or stores that he frequents in diagon alley. And though hardly anyone reads them, he finds joy in it and often gets scolded a bit by his professors or mother for scribbling bits of his writings on his paperwork or drawing little comics in the margins of important documents. 

Overall, Frank is way better at dealing with stress than he is anything else. Though his emotions are a hang up for the boy, when he remembers to take the time to, Frank knows just how to put his mind at ease. In true Taurus fashion, being a bump on a log is one of Frank’s highest skills. Sitting back to smoke while kicking his feet up is where Frank is found during any free chance.

WANTED CONNECTIONS

smoking/hanging out buddies: these two don’t have to necessarily get along all the time, just when they want to get together to blow off some steam

close/best friends: when Frank got kicked out, he had to stay somewhere. Possibly a connection with someone who let him crash while he got his shit together? They both could help each other through their personal problems and be more real with each other than friends normally would?

journalist friend: maybe if someone is studying to be a journalist or is in the newspaper club and feels they would get along with Frank, they could persuade him to consider taking his love for writing more seriously

 ( also, i’m open to filling other wanted connections, just message me if i haven't messaged you !! )

— Briar Hilde was originally called Briar Sommers, born to muggles Gregory and Vivian Sommers in Toulouse, France. Gregory and Vivian were far from being considered well-off. In fact, they more often than not toed the poverty line. But they did everything they could to give Briar the best life possible, and everything she knows now about humility and resilience she learned from watching her parents. She showed her first signs of magic when she was four, and while her parents could clearly see something was different about their daughter neither of them would get the chance to find out what it was.

— When Briar was six her mother caught pneumonia. She was in and out of hospital for weeks and despite best efforts on the doctor’s parts, she kept getting worst. The doctors finally said there was nothing more they could do other than make her comfortable. Briar and her father stayed in the hospital with her mother, both of them being in the room with Vivian when she passed. Her mother’s death already devastated Briar, but her father’s death from a heart attack nearly two years later just shy of Briar’s eighth birthday was what finally sent her into a tailspin. Her parents had no living relatives nearby and no will to give any of their friends legal guardianship over Briar, so she was placed into an orphanage for adoption. The emotional turmoil caused by losing both her parents though caused Briar’s magic to go haywire and odd things kept happening in the orphanage around her. These strange occurrences would be what led to her adoptive parents finding her.

— On a visit to his recluse of a sister Evelyn in France, Alexander Hilde heard of the strange things happening in a local orphanage after a new girl had been brought in. With curiosity getting the better of him, Alexander went to visit the orphanage and quickly picked up on the fact that Briar was a witch. Fearing what could happen to her if she stayed in the muggle system, Alexander and his wife Sienna managed to secure an adoption from the agency and brought Briar back to the England with them. They were smart though and knew what kind of trouble adopting a muggleborn could get them into among the pureblood families. While they full-heartedly disagree with the idea of blood purity and pureblood supremacy, they didn’t want Briar to become a target. They thought that if purebloods knew she was a muggleborn that they would assume she was trying to sneak her way into the pureblood pool and taint their purity. And with the hostilities towards muggleborns growing, they knew they needed to conceal her identity.

— Within a week of Briar arriving to England, Alexander and Sienna sat her down to explain what would become her new life story. She could never mention her true parentage to anyone. As far as anyone was to know, she was the daughter of Evelyn, making her Alexander’s niece with Evelyn knowing and contributing to the ruse. Her to be considered “mother” Evelyn had always had a penchant for avoiding society as a whole, but it had gotten worse over the past nine years which provided the perfect timeline for their story. They were going to say Evelyn had gotten pregnant from an affair she was having and in an effort to conceal her pregnancy and the identity of her daughter, she became even more of a shut in. As for the reason why Briar was coming to England now, they were going to tell everyone that Evelyn had fallen ill so she could no longer properly care for Briar and asked Alexander to take her. With the losses of her parents still hurting and Alexander and Sienna being the first people to show her true kindness since her parents’ deaths, she was willing to agree to anything they said and so she agreed to the lie. Within weeks they had everyone convinced of this story and Briar’s place was cemented into pureblood society.

— Briar is constantly afraid that someone is going to find out about her true identity and parentage. She hates the lie and how she has to pretend her true parents never existed. She doesn’t hold this against Alexander or Sienna, knowing that they were just trying to do what they thought was best to protect her. A part of Briar wishes she could just come clean though. But she knows that her life isn’t the only one at stake. Due to them helping her and coming up with the lie in the first place, Briar knows that Alexander and Sienna would be targeted if anyone were to find out she was a muggleborn. And she loves them dearly so she isn’t willing to jeopardize their safety for the sake of revealing her truth. Because of this desire to protect Alexander and Sienna from getting in trouble over her, Briar does whatever she can to keep her secret. And the summer after her graduation, she took it the furthest she possibly could by joining the Knights of Walpurgis. She hates the organization and everything it stands for, but the Knights seemed less intimidating and brutal than the Death Eaters. Briar thought that if she joined a group that stands for blood supremacy that she would be safe in her lie because no one would question her blood status if she seems to support blood purity. But she’s starting to get more afraid being part of the Knights. She’s worried of what they might do if the war continues to ramp up, of what they might try to make her do to prove her loyalty to their cause, or what they might do to her and her family if the truth about her ever got out.

— During her Hogwarts days Briar discovered a love for many subject areas. One in particular that she had excelled in was potions and she almost considered becoming a potioneer. However, after a visit to St. Mungo’s and seeing the healers at work, helping those who were at their most vulnerable, Briar knew that was what she truly wanted to do. She saw the healers work as brave and selfless, two qualities she has always wanted to have in herself, so of course she had to choose the career path that put her in the direction of becoming the person she wants to be.

— In her sixth year Dumbledore found out about her secret and while Briar had initially been terrified, the professor assured her that her identity would stay with him. For the remaining two years of her education at Hogwarts, Dumbledore trained her in occlumency. It was the most intense lessons she could ever recall enduring, but she emerged proficient in the magic and with a newfound deep trust of Dumbledore. She places so much trust in him now that the pamphlets about him barely made her flinch. The Order is where she truly wants to be, but she can’t bring herself to make the switch yet. She feels there’s just too much at stake for her and her family.

These are just a few potential connections, but I’m open to others or plotting anything out!

First love: Briar didn’t date much during her Hogwarts days, but for this person she made an exception. They probably started off as friends and gradually became more. Maybe they made her feel calmer, or maybe she felt like she could be more of herself around them. Whatever it was that drew her to them, she fell for them and loved them a lot. She loved them so much that she knew she couldn’t stay with them. She couldn’t tell them the truth about who she truly was, but she didn’t want to keep lying to them either. So she felt her only solution was to break up with them rather abruptly. She didn’t give much of an explanation, just said it was over and that was that. After the break up she would have avoided them, but even now she still has a soft spot for them in her heart. I’ve thought of two ways this could go: Maybe they’re pissed at her for breaking up with them so suddenly and without any reason as to why. Or maybe they were able to see she was going through a lot and couldn’t handle a relationship at that time, so when they run into each other again Briar is pleasantly surprised to see how nonchalant they are about the whole thing now. But there could be any other reaction too so I’m open to anything.

Faction loyalty: Currently Briar is with the Knights of Walpurgis, albeit rather reluctantly. She obviously hates what the organization stands for, but can’t bring herself to leave yet convinced that being part of the Knights is what secures her secret staying hidden. This connection could go a few ways. Someone on the Knights side could be suspecting her loyalty is wavering, or a Banneret/Order member could be trying to recruit her, trying to get her to switch sides.

Childhood/Hogwarts friendship(s): Briar didn’t show up in the English society until she was eight, but Alexander and Sienna were definitely quick to throw her into parties, gatherings, and events to try to help her adjust to her new life in England. Briar was on the shyer side when she first arrived, still dealing with the loss of her birth parents and trying not to be overwhelmed by this new life she was being thrust into. Maybe someone met her during her shy stage and was the one to help pull her out of her shell. Or maybe it was someone she met after she became more sociable. During her Hogwarts day, Briar didn’t tend to care too much about house rivalries. While Gryffindor friendships were obviously easier for her to strike up due to the proximity of being in the same house, Briar would have had no problems with making friends with people outside her house. Maybe that’s through classes together or clubs they may have been a part of.

Future coworker friendship(s): Briar’s in the healer program and with her penchant for making new friends wherever she goes, she would absolutely be trying to make friends in her courses. Maybe it’s someone she’s agreed to study with, or they could be assigned a project to work on together that turns into a friendship.

( sofia carson, twenty-three, cis female ) hey, was that MAEVE WISHART passing by? I didn’t think the PUREBLOOD was a student, but I’d recognize HER anywhere. rumor has it they’re working as a MAGICAL LAW PROFESSOR, so who knows what they’re doing here. they always reminded me of NINE BY SLEEPING AT LAST. I’ve also heard they’ve been recruited by NO ONE. but despite all that I think they’re still DEDICATED, EMPATHETIC & AMBITIOUS and MELODRAMATIC, GUARDED & INDECISIVE. and the RAVENCLAW alum still reminds me of a cup of chamomile tea late at night, a table at the library overcrowded with books and notes, hands clenched into tight fists with no follow through, a perfectly timed hug, carefully calculated chess moves, and a ribbon being pulled at both ends. well, then, I guess some things never change.  ( courtney, 25, CST, she/her )

Nickname(s): Mae. 

Age: 23.

D.O.B: August 30th.

Zodiac: Libra.

Enneagram: 9w1. 

Myers-Brigg: ENTJ.

Occupation: Professor of Magical Law at Hogwarts College.

Blood Status: Pureblood.

Allegiance: None. 

P E R S O N A L I T Y → 

Maeve’s enneagram is a 9w1, so she’s a peacemaker with a reformer wing. Her peacemaker side is both her greatest strength and her biggest weakness. 

+ Her strengths in that is that she cares a lot about people and is often a great person to go for advice because she can help navigate a diplomatic/peaceful solution to problems. Once she has become friends with someone she will love them unconditionally and do virtually anything to make them happy. She’s also friendly, agreeable, adaptable and empathetic. 

- Her weaknesses in this though are that she will usually do anything to avoid conflict/confrontation. Maeve is always running assessments in her mind of how big a problem something could turn into if she chooses to stand her ground or not, and if she deems the fight to be too big she will cave to avoid the conflict. Obviously she has her moments of standing up for herself, but more often than not she will fall into people-pleasing tendencies to keep the peace. This also plays a big role in why she wants to stay neutral in the war. A war is a pretty big conflict and she will bury her head in the sand for as long as she can to avoid it. 

Maeve is also an ENTJ. Though she technically leans extraverted, she’s more of an ambivert. While around people she thrives and is very social and outgoing, happy to make friends and hangout for as long as anyone wants. But she also genuinely loves being alone too, especially after a long day of classes. She can recharge and refresh herself both ways. 

P A S T    H E A D C A N O N S → 

— Maeve is the only child of Frederick and Greer (nee Burke) Wishart. And from an early age, Mae knew being their only daughter that she was going to face a certain amount of pressure to live up to their successes. Her father worked in the Ministry as one of their top Aurors and her mother had a highly successful career as the seeker for Puddlemere United. Looking back on it now, she can’t distinguish what came first. Whether it was her parents seeing a spark in her and feeding the flame to push their daughter into success, or her seeing how great her parents were and internalizing the feeling of having to succeed to make them proud. She knows her parents love her and would have supported her no matter she chose to do with her life, they had always said as much. But she had always paid the closest attention to the small nudges and offhand comments made by them about her needing to strive for excellence since she was capable of it. 

— Maeve caused a minor “hat-stall” during her sorting ceremony. The sorting hat was uncharacteristically quiet as it worked through whether to place her in Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw, citing her fierce loyalty and patience as it’s reasons for her being a Hufflepuff, and her cleverness, creativity in problem solving, and admiration of academics as the reasons for her being a Ravenclaw. The decision came down to Mae herself. All it took was one glance at the Ravenclaw table where she saw wisdom and intelligence beyond compare in their eyes, and she knew that was where she truly belonged. She could see the challenge she would have in proving herself valuable among the ranks of some of the smartest witches and wizards in Hogwarts, and she wanted to rise up to that. Almost as soon as she settled in her mind that Ravenclaw was where she wanted to be, the sorting hat called it out and she spent the next seven years cloaked in blue and bronze. 

— In her third year, Maeve tried out for the Quidditch team. Despite a mother who played quidditch professionally, she’d never given the sport much consideration other than it was her mother’s career. It wasn’t until she’d gone to games in her first and second year that she truly fell in love with the sport and the exhilaration she imagined the players would feel as they flew around the pitch. She made the team and spent the next 4 years balancing the team and her studies. But when seventh year came around, she knew something had to give. Prefect duties being added to her plate for the past two years had already taken a toll on her, and while she hated it, she knew Quidditch was the thing she could afford to give up. So she quit in seventh year, prioritizing her education and Prefect position. She still loves quidditch though and tries to go to games as often as she can. 

— Growing up, Mae always knew she had to amount to something great. Her parents had told her from the moment she started school that she had so much potential and she was terrified of letting them down. As such, she threw herself into her studies and strived for the best from herself in every course, even taking additional courses that she hadn’t needed just for the sake of pushing herself further. But admittedly she had no true aim in her studies. Maeve had no clue what she wanted to do in her life, all she knew was it couldn’t be an Auror or a quidditch player. She wasn’t going to ride on her parent’s successes. She wanted to make her own path and succeed in her own right. It was in her fifth year that she had stumbled across a magical law book and she knew immediately that was what she needed to study. She excelled in the studies of magical law, so much so that she was practicing it by twenty-one. And only two years into the field, she was approached for a professor position at Hogwarts College which she immediately accepted. 

— Maeve is still unsure of where she sits on the Dumbledore pamphlets. While she can see the sense and thinking of the accusations made, she’s not sure she fully trusts the credibility or agendas of the distributors. She’s not sure she fully trusts anyone anymore though. If her studying law solidified anything, it was her knowledge that everyone has a hidden agenda they’re working with, and whether it’s good or bad is anyone’s guess. She does agree though that no one person should have too much power or influence over the wizarding world. 

C O N N E C T I O N S →

These are just a few potential connections, but I’m open to others or plotting anything out! 

Hogwarts fling(s): Maeve may have spent most of her years in school with her nose buried in a textbook, but that didn’t mean she completely neglected her love life. She was too focused on her studies to entertain a real relationship in school, however, everyone needs a study break sometimes and she was more than happy to have a few flings as distractions.  

Mentor/mentee: With her being a professor there’s always the potential for her to notice a particularly bright law student and decide to mentor them. 

Faction recruitment: Currently Maeve is neutral, and rather stubbornly so. She really isn’t leaning any direction right now. She has spent so long studying law and now teaching it, and therefore wants to believe in the law wholeheartedly. What she really wants though is peace, and this peacekeeping heart could put her in a vulnerable position for recruitment from any of the factions. She genuinely does want the best for everyone, so she could be convinced the way of the Order or the Banneret of Beltane. But she also could be manipulated to the side of the Death Eaters or the Knights of Walpurgis with the right phrases and omissions.  

Quidditch: This could go a few directions. She played from third to sixth year which would have been plenty of time for her to develop friendships with teammates, or a rivalry with a chaser from another house. Even after she quit she maintained a love of the sport and tries to keep up with it regularly still, so maybe it could even be someone she bonds/bonded with over a love of the game. This could also be someone who knows of her mom/was a fan of her mom and approached Maeve because of her famous mother. 

Childhood/Hogwarts friendship(s): Maeve is a pretty social girl and can make friends with virtually anyone. Blood status, or houses for that matter, have never been high on her list of things to care about when deciding who to associate with. If they’re friendly and easy to talk to, she’s likely to try to strike up a friendship. Because of her parent’s careers she would have mixed with a wide variety of people from an early age. She would have been at the high society, elite events, but she also would have been at general parties where anyone was invited. 

High society friendship(s): Because of her father working relatively high up in the Ministry and her mother being so famous, Maeve would have been at some elite events. She probably hated these events, largely because of how disingenuous she would have found people in high society and how she felt pressured to be disingenuous herself in order to fit the perfect Pureblood mould while there. That being said, she’s still Maeve and she still would have tried to make the best of the situation, so she would have tried to make friends at these events. Maybe there’s someone she was pleasantly surprised by and found them to be a lot nicer than she would have thought and now they’re still friends to do this day. Or maybe it’s someone who no matter how much she tried, she couldn’t get along with them and they still can’t stand each other now.

hi  friends!  please  meet  miss  mary  josefina-rosa  macdonald!  i'm  just  gonna  give  you  all  some  bullet  points  about  her,  because  my  attention  span  is  horrendous  right  now  and  i'm  gonna  be  taking  a  little  more  time  than  usual  to  write  their  biography...  sorry  ily  guys

mary  is  twenty  two  years  old  &  is  a  hufflepuff  alum!

mary  identifies  as  a  demi  girl  and  uses  she/they  pronouns!  they  also  identify  themselves  as  pansexual

she  is  my  all-american  girl  half-blood  witch  who  lived  with  her  muggle  mother,  isabela  castro,  in  texas  and  spent  summers  in  america!    she  went  to  hogwarts  because  her  rich  and  deadbeat  dad,  nathan  macdonald,  was  willing  to  bank  roll  her  education.  

mary  did  okay  in  school,  she  was  always  one  step  behind  her  peers  in  their  studies  and  was  very  insecure  about  it,  but  they  excelled  in  herbology.  mary  loves  plants  and  feels  like  plants  are  they  only  things  that  they  can  really  connect  with  when  their  feeling  lonely.  

during  their  seventh  year,  mary's  mother  passed  away  (mysterious  circumstances)  and  that  caused  mary  to  drop  out  of  hogwarts  during  their  seventh  year.  they  did  not  feel  a  call  to  continue  or  resume  their  education  and  instead  started  bouncing  around  doing  odd  jobs.  

they  are  currently  unemployed  and  living  off  the  macdonald  family  fortune  in  the  wizarding  world.  mary  has  no  intentions  of  returning  to  america  since  her  mother  passed  away.  

before  the  war,  mary  was  a  big  supporter  of  the  order  of  the  phoenix  and  contemplated  joining  the  order  during  the  war,  but  ultimately  they  did  not.

( aron piper, twenty, queer ) hey, was that LORCAN D'EATH passing by? so much has happened recently; I haven’t seen the HALF-VAMPIRE in forever, but I’d recognize THEM anywhere. rumor has it the SECOND year is studying to be a RADIO HOST. they always reminded me of DIRTY LAUNDRY BY BLACKBEAR. I’ve also heard they’ve been recruited by NO ONE. but despite all that I think they’re still CHARISMATIC, CONFIDENT & INTELLIGENT and ARROGANT, SELFISH & HEDONISTIC. and the RAVENCLAW alum still reminds me of necks left blooming with hickeys while yours remains unmarked, a list of excuses repeated to yourself until they almost sound true; a constant chill even in the sweltering summer sun; fingers idly ripping holes into the fabric of your clothes; the blurry face of your reflection (you never did know who you were, did you?). well, then, I guess some things never change.  

growing up in a pitch black manor with nothing brighter than a flickering candle is something that very few people understand. for years, that was lorcan’s reality: suffocating darkness and loneliness, broken only by dim candlelight reflecting off the cold stone walls. his father slept most of the waking day and his mother was rarely home, leaving him to the care of staff members who were unequipped to deal with the raising of a young child but did their best to prepare lorcan for their time at hogwarts.

regardless, they did roll up to first year wearing sunglasses at night and looking exhausted, having accidentally swapped to a nocturnal schedule a few months earlier. that combined with their undeniable pallor and obvious surname made it impossible for them to hide amongst the crowd, though their placement in ravenclaw was a blessing in that sense. they spent most of their time at hogwarts being the poster child for two things: inconsistent sleep schedules ( and napping everywhere possible ) and an unhealthy dependence on coffee. to this day, they wear sunglasses long past sunset, claiming a ‘sensitivity to light’ and refusing to ditch them.

has gained a bit of a reputation for being a flirt and a player in the past year and a half, often dating someone for a few weeks before calling it off. has no real interest in relationships beyond the social pressure and the desire to write love songs ( and they always leave relationships with a few more songs hidden in their journal ). 

similiarly uninterested in fighting in the war as they see it as a ‘human affair’. 

wanted connections. 

exes. flings. hook-ups. the ‘you said you loved me’ ‘i thought i did’ type of pairing. inspired by any number of taylor swift songs rly. 

friends. those who deal with lorcan’s quirks - the sunglasses at night, the four am floo calls, the meat that’s just a little too rare for most people’s comfort. 

trying to recruit. whether they want lorcan for lorcan or as the representative of who lorcan could connect them to.

Random Facts

Although a pureblood family the Vance’s never believed in pureblood supremacy. In fact that were quite the opposite, with both of Emmeline’s family being well respected aurors

Emmeline was actually born in Paris whilst her parents were out there on the International Task Force. The family stayed in Paris for a few years, before fully returning to the UK when Emmeline was five.

She knew from a young age that she wanted to be an auror. It came from watching her parents, but also from watching the injustices that went on around her. She wanted to do something to make the world a better place.

Of course there was always going to be some pressure. Her parents were still working in the Auror office. But She was determined to prove that she was just as good, if not better than her parents. 

Emmeline is a hard worker. Things come easily to her, but she does not boast. If anything, she offers out her services, and readily tutors others. 

Joining the Order of the Phoenix just made sense. Emmeline just wants to make the world a better place, and would do just about anything to make that happen.

Emmeline is also a pretty chaotic person. In her studies she can be quite controlled, but everywhere else she’s pretty chaotic, and messy. That’s just how she is, and she probably won’t change.
