hogwarts: our future

[size=16pt]r u l e s

one| we will all play first year students; the only way to play a student in another year will be to play your first year student's siblings

two| you can have as many characters as you want, so long as you keep them all active. this means don't make like five characters

three| i would prefer only those who can manage semi-lit to advanced-lit writing join; i have very ilttle patience for one liners, sorry

four| romance is encouraged, but let's not have the 'love at first sight' stuff; let's be honest, that doesn't happen in the real world. and remember to keep it pg-13: fade to black and take it to pms if you must

five| violence is also encouraged, but remember, nothing over pg-13; not my rules, but wcrpg's

six| follow these rules, and respect me and whatever other members i give 'mod' duties to; disrespect us, and i will report you and remove you from the roleplay

||thanks :3 my characters are following||

age| eleven
birthday| december thirteenth
gender male
hair| black, shaggy, constantly in his eyes and face
skin| pale, mostly clear
eyes| dark green, often emotionless
build| scrawny, especially stomach and chest; decently sized arms and legs; tall for his age
parents| caradoc + heliotrope fallen; heliotrope is completely pureblood, caradoc has some half-blood mixed in
house| will be slytherin
pet| a young greater sooty owl named othello
wand| ebony with phoenix feather core, ten and three-quarter inches, unyeilding.
about| fairly shy, severen keeps to himself and a small group of friends. he does have some of the typical pure-blood 'pure-blood's are better' views, but he does think that muggle-borns should be allowed to have their magic. he can be a little snobbish, or at least appear so but he isn't entirely so.
sexuality| bisexual

age| eleven
birthday| september nineteenth
gender| female
hair| dyed a bright red auburn, naturally dirty blond; shoulder-length, quite curly
skin| slightly tanned, though still fair
eyes| change from blue to green depending on her mood and clothing
build| plenty tall for her age, stands above most other first-years; plenty skinny, has a 'perfect body' but is far from satisfied with it
parents| nigel + sarah piper; both muggles, though nigel is unaware that his grandfather was a wizard
house| will be gryffindor or ravenclaw
pet| an orange tabby kitten named nala
wand| pear, dragon heartstring core; thirteen inches, reasonably supple
about| although quite shy, poppy is also plenty outgoing. she has low self-esteem, but does her very best to hide it (and does quite well at it). she is quite intelligent, but has always found herself plenty bored in her muggle school classes. she will be somewhat ashamed of her blood status, but will discover her grandfather's abilities after some study.
sexuality| bisexual

age| eleven
birthday| june twentyeighth
gender| male
hair| dark brown, shortish, falls to about his ears
skin| dark tan, freckles on his cheeks and nose
eyes| dark green, flecks of brown
build| muscular, for his age, normal height
parents| evan + fortuna midgen; evan is muggleborn, fortuna a half-blood
house| either hufflepuff or gryfinndor
pet| a barn owl named riley
wand| holly, unicorn hair, eleven inches, quite springy
about| plenty self-confidant, bryce is glad to finally join his two brothers (elroy victor midgen -called vic, hufflepuff- and blaise nathaniel midgen -called either blaise or nathen/nate, gryffindor) at hogwarts. he has a bit of a rebellious nature, but doesn't let it get him into too much trouble. he can be pretty cocky, and is quite flirtatious.
sexuality| straight

||it's aight, she's accepted, i love her :3||

Shift is accepted, as is Seth; as for Jacquiline, i love her, but i've never head of a wand with peacock feather... care to explain thief?

@happy: i'd love to accept you, but i did state that the characters can only be eleven unless they are the elder sibling of another of your characters; we're focusing on the first year for now

no problem; just change it in the form, i'm adding him now

||eh, i guess it can make sense for a peacock feather core, though i'm not entirely sure what magical properties a peacock has? i guess she didn't go to olivander's then though xD

if you guys want to begin posting, you can go ahead, they should boarding the train and finding their cabins and such; i'd make a post, but have no time right now...||

'bye mom, dad!' poppy waved, leaning as far as she could out of the train window. 'i'm sure i'll be able to borrow and owl to write!'

her parents waved back mutely, both quite unfocused on their daughter. their eyes kept shifting from side to side nervously, but one couldn't expect much from a pair of muggles who had just learned that their only daughter was a witch.

she gave the pair a last big grin before sliding back inside the train and laying back against the red velvet seat.

winona poppy piper. less than a month ago, she'd seen those three words on her hogwarts letter, proclaiming she was indeed a witch. she'd been overjoyed; her parents, less so. she'd had to force her mother and father to take her to diagon alley. but they had taken her, and she'd bought her books --most of which she'd already looked over with wide eyes-- and her wand.

poppy pulled it from her pocket, stroking it absentmindedly. it was thirteen inches, pear, with a dragon's heartstring at its center. without thinking, she flicked her wrist, sending a burst of golden sparks from its end. she smiled to herself, putting her wand down gently in her lap.

for the first time she could remember, poppy felt right.

his mom kissed his cheek for the third time, earning another groan from the pale young boy. 'mom. get off,' he growled, pushing her away and moving to climb on the train. 'i need to go.'

the woman smiled sadly, her eyes welling with tears, and waved to her son. again, severen groaned and turned away, shaking his head as he tugged his trunk up onto the train.

his parents both knew that this day would come. he was practically a pureblood! but no, his mother had overreacted when his letter had come, had barely stopped crying since.

severen shouldered the students who loitered in the train's hall out of his way. he spotted --miraculously-- an empty cabin and pulled his trunk and owl's cage inside, slamming the glass door and pulling the curtain shut. he didn't necessarily need his own cabin, but he wanted peace and quiet before he had to deal with the noise of the sorting that he knew would come just as soon as he reached the school.

vic shouted loudly as he ran down the train's corridor, motioning for his brothers to follow him. 'you gotta hurry, or we won't get an empty cabin!' his brother blaise, junior by a year, ran after him, laughing just as loud.

'now, ludovic--'

'mom,' the young boy scowled at his mother, 'i've told you umpteen times, i want to be called bryce.'

'fine,' his mother said with a sigh and flippant wave of her hand. 'bryce, don't be worried about anything, we're just an owl away, okay? and i'm sure that elroy and blaise will be there to answer any questions or help with any trouble you have, alright, sweetie?' she petted his brown hair, an attempt to sooth her youngest son.

'yeah, yeah. i'm fine mom, just let me go!' he tried to push her away, but she pulled him closer for a hug.

'aw, hun, just let him go. our newest little gryffindor's ready to get to school,' his dad joked, patting his wife gently on the back.

at the word 'gryffindor,' she let bryce go, turning angrily to her husband. bryce knew that a new argument would begin on what house he would be put in: gryffindor like his brother blaise and his father, or hufflepuff like vic and his mom. honestly, he didn't care either way, and used the moment to escape from his parents.

but, just as he'd suspected, he couldn't find his brothers anywhere. he'd searched up and down the corridor, looking in every cabin that had its curtain open. with a sigh, he leaned against the wall, stroking his owl, riley, through her cage bars. 'well, girl, looks like we'll have to find someone to sit with,' he murmured, looking around. the barn owl answered him with a soft hoot, no help to the eleven year old boy.
