Intro post!
Hi everyone! I'm Christa, and I'm new to the game. :) I'm bringing in Melanie Platt, who will hopefully become involved in some crazy evilness in the near future.

Melanie is a young woman (Gryffindor class of '90) who spent several years of her post-Hogwarts life as a dragon hunter, traveling a lot and seeing the world. She was really good at it, but about two years ago a hunting party went horribly wrong and she wound up too shaken by the experience to continue. So for the past few years she's been hopping from job to job every few months, moving on when she gets sick of the current one. Essentially, she's just not happy with the way her life has been going at all, and is looking for something that gives her the thrill her former occupation did. Thus why she will likely take an interest in getting involved in the Moirae, either to put her skills to use or to pick up some new ones - if there's one thing she loves, it's learning.

Personality-wise, she is fairly approachable, direct, and observant. Melanie puts up a good front of being satisfied, and hides her true nature well. It's served her well at her current job as a shop-girl at a high-end clothier, where dealing with demanding customers is not always easy to do with a smile.

Plot-wise, biggest things I'm hoping to do are get her involved with Bellatrix's 'people', and she'll probably be looking for a new job soon as she is tired of Hyde and Pelting's. It's likely that she could be easily swayed by either side, as she's fairly vulnerable right now and always wants in on the Next Big Opportunity.

More detailed info can be found HERE. Can't wait to play with you all! :)

Hi there! I'm Alex and have Marcus Flint (01), Minerva Mcgonagall (01), Narcissa Malfoy (81) and Evan Rosier Sr (Dopple). Ummm Minerva would probably knwo her canon self y/n?

If she's getting involved with Bella's people Evan might be a good one to have interactions with too. He's a more political aide/unnoficial moraie who is looking to get back into the Ministry.

AIM is moonsdreaming if you ever want to chat or plot :)

	Hi, I'm Dee and I have Ginny who wouldn't know Melanie since she left Hogwarts before Ginny even started. Although I would assume Melanie would know Charlie and Bill fairly well since they would have been in school together. :) (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Oh, she definitely would have (especially if either of them played Quidditch)! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Hey, I am Chris and I have D!Draco. He definitely has an in to the Moirae. He is Aunt Bella's right hand man. This Draco is fearless and conniving with many trust issues. It might be interesting for them to meet. Ping me at manicgrey on AIM/Y!M. Welcome, Chris (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Welcome to the game! I'm Jessi and I have Lily Potter née Evans [ DOPPLE, this journal ], Maximilian Vaisey [ DOPPLE, ofdarkness ] and Owen Gibbon [ GUEST from 1981, atlantid ]. Maximilian is the only one of 'Bellatrix's people' I have, but I'm sure Owen will chat her up on the journals! (I am SO sorry for the inbox spam re: my code flub!) (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thank you! Haha, no prob about the notifications, I had a bunch of other stuff anyway so the extras were just white noise. But I'll definitely send an IM your way for plottage! (Reply to this) (Parent)

Hi Christa. Welcome! :)

I'm Lorena and I play Astoria Greengrass and Gildeory Lockhart. They are both guests from 2001 and 1981, respectively. Astoria also wants to get involved with the dark though she hasn't found a way how. And she's looking for tutoring first. But anywho, I think they'd get along if they ever met. Gildeory is chipper and selfish but he'll be nice/annoying to anyone.

Hopefully that all makes sense and if not then I blame it on the hour.

Also, my aim is versosdelcapt if you want to plot/chat or have any questions or concerns about the game. :)

Heya :)

It's Bee. I have Theodore Nott, Mandy Brocklehurst, Gwen Montgomery and Cassiopeia malfoy here. So baddie overload really!

Unfortunately, Melanie wouldn't know any off mine, save possibly have heard of Cassie (cause she's all important being a Malfoy and all!) If Melanie gets involved with the Moraie and stuff, she may run across Theodore though, and any visit to the Ministry would make her talk to Gwen since she's reception and all. So I dunno if you wanna find something there, otherwise welcome :)
