hp ww1 era; a completely serious guide by @potionboy3 and yours truly

the first version a lot more new ocs and plot points have been introduced to this verse since annie published the first powerpoint, so we felt like it was time for an update. this was a labour of love and now it's here! a tongue-in-cheek intro to the world war I era, featuring many of the ocs created within the fandom! obviously this is from mine and annie's point of view, and while we did look through the tag for all the ocs, we don't know all of them as well as we would like, so we winged it😂 many of the nicknames are based on what we've called these characters when they didn't have names yet/if we couldn't remember their names. some of the jokes and references might be incomprehensible to anyone but us but i hope not all of them, lol. if we got something wrong, let us know!

► Family Mother: Face claim: Julia Roberts

Stepfather:  Thomas Brynn Face claim: - Relationship with them: Thomas and Melv got along well and Melv didn’t know want to admit about the mistreatment of his younger brother that Thomas was responsible of. He later cut all ties with the man.

Brother: Kit Enfield Face claim: Boran Kuzum

Relationship with them: Kit and Melv were always very different. Melv was responsible and serious. He was patient and liked spending time alone while Kit was loud and had a hard time focusing on anything. They got even more distant while Melv was away from home after going to Hogwarts. He didn’t have the knowledge of everything that was happening back at home. He always assumed Kit was just being dramatic. After Kit ran away from home, he was mad and thought that Kit was breaking their mother’s heart. He didn’t see his little brother’s side of things. When the war started Melv was worried about Kit. He kept up with news about it and tried to be on loop on what was happening. During the war Ares gave his gun for Kit to make sure he’d be safe. Eventually Kit got caught using it and Melv was sent to wipe his memories since Ares’s Presence in the war was meant to be a secret. Kit begged his brother to let him keep his memories of Ares and he agreed to it and lied to the ministry. When he learned about Kit’s marriage, he was not supportive.  He knew it was a bad decision that would end with Odessa getting hurt. Their relationship didn’t get any better after that. It didn’t help that Melv had secret feelings for his wife. Melv later on regretted his views of the time when Kit was young. He was sad of not making things right with his brother while he was still alive. Kit died without the two of them ever fully making up.

After ending the relationship Melv tended to avoid situations where he would have to face Mystie again.

Odessa Avery @cursed-herbalist Faceclaim: Carey Mulligan

Melv has has been in love with Odessa since their childhood. Unfortunately, she only seemed to have eyes for his younger brother.

Kit Enfield | HP WW1 era |

“My voice becomes the driving force I won't let this pull me overboard”

Christopher “Kit” Enfield 11th of March 1888 - ??? 1918 Kit has turned into a favourite of mine even though he has been here for a short while. His story is tragic but even with all the angst, he’s so lovable and funny and I just adore his face. He fights so hard for his life and it’s such a shame how Ren gets to him in the end. He doesn’t want to die but he’s not strong enough to fight back. That dying scene haunts me. This video about the main relationships of his life. His love story and bond with Ares, marriage and long friendship with Odessa and the difficult relationship with his brother Melv. Though most of all it’s a video of his own fight.  I’ve wanted to use this song for him for ever since creating his story and now felt like a fitting time to do so. (It’s also fitting in a more literal sense since Kit can’t swim well).  As many of you have probably noticed, I haven’t been making videos lately. I’m taking a little break in hopes of finding some passion for it again. This video was made some time ago and I wasn’t completely happy with it after finishing... I’m still not. After making some changes and crying because of the song, I decided that it’s worth posting even if the editing of it is not as lovely as I had hoped for.   In the video: Kit Enfield Odessa Avery @cursed-herbalist Ares Gaunt @gaygryffindorgal Ren Godfrey Melv Enfield  Helena Enfield/Brynn (Thomas Brynn)

Mysteria Charmworth | Gryffindor | Journalist | HP WW1 era

Let's talk about Mystie...

Do we hate her? Do we love her? Do we love to hate her, or hate to love her? She and Odessa Avery went to school together. The two were both sorted into Gryffindor and became fast friends, sharing dreams of future careers and being in the same dorm. Through Odessa, Mystie met Melv Enfield, a man she thought would to be the love of her life. Melv was older than the girls, he was popular and smart and even became the Head Boy. He was everyhing a girl like Mystie could think to ask for, but he hardly noticed her, if Odessa was with her, as he and her were often bickering...

In the end Mystie decided that Odessa wasn't the type of girl whose company she should keep. Besides, Odessa was always stealing attention away from her and her achievements by managing to do just a little bit better at everything. There was something off about it... It, of course, had nothing to do with the fact that she was focusing on learning, while Mystie was daydreaming, absolutely not.

In later years both Mystie and Odessa would become journalist, often competing over articles. Some claim Mystie's stories were less truthful (or, as she would say, "some can't handle the truth").

She got her wish and managed to even reach Melv Enfield's attention for a little bit but sadly, he didn't see her as a long term match and broke things off. Mystie will fix it though and get him back! You just wait...

Melv Enfield | Gryffindor | Obliviator | HP WW1 era

Melvyn Enfield is Kit Enfield's older brother. Melv was raised very differently from his brother and received lot of priviledges, while Kit was mostly kept away from the society due to his blood status.

Melv went to Hogwarts in 1897, the same time as Ares Gaunt, though the two were never friends. Melv was sorted into Gryffindor and quickly became the best student of his year, to the joy of his mother and stepfather. During his time in school he was a prefect and a headboy and graduated with great promises for future career.

He was never cIose with his little brother who seemed to attract trouble wherever he went, which Melv didn't approve of. Melv was also unaware of a lot of the treatment Kit had to put up with from their stepfather while he was in school. Kit ran away from home when Melv had already moved out and the two didn't stay in contact (MeIv did check up on him couple of times in secret) until Kit visited their mother right before The Great War. Melv never saw his brother as a soldier and tried to talk him out of his plans but Kit was set on his choices.

Melv always had a special fondness for Kit's childhood best friend Odessa Avery, though it wasn't very obvious as the two were arguing about as much as Kit and Melv were. Later on he worked as an Obliviator for the Ministry. Odessa became a journalist. Melv would often bail her out of trouble she got while writing honest articles and snooping for sources.
