Intro Post!

*waves* Lisa here with my second character!

Hello all! I bring to you Ms. Marietta Edgecomb! Marietta is, to put it nicely, a bitch. She's bitter, jaded and pretty much dislikes most people. Her little bout in the D.A. taught her that people weren't allowed to make mistakes and she has a particular loathing for Hermione Granger (she still has a small bit of scarring on her forehead from the curse). Though, she is quite loyal to those she considers friends. Marietta's mother was very demanding and she still has issues with her mum walking all over her. She was in Ravenclaw from 90 to 97 and her favorite Quidditch team is the Magpies. She writes gossip Witch Weekly under but her actual title is assistant editor (to throw off the hounds). She also, regularly, publishes scholarly articles for any forum that will take her.

So! Enemies, friends, exes etc... She needs them!

Also, I'm having computer issues (as in mine had to go in) so I might not be around as much as I'd like but hopefully that will only last a week or so.

Hey, guys! Remember me?

Things have been SO hectic with work, plus I got hit with a nasty cough and it took me about from RP, but I'm going to try an make my comeback, because I miss everything. For those of you who don't remember me, here's a (re)introduction:

I'm Lena! I'm 37, I live in Georgia, I have a siamese cat named Narcissa and I work at Walmart. I lovelovelove Quidditch to an unnatural degree. You don't even know. This may be why I have four characters at this game and 3 of them are Quidditch players, lol.

Also, pardon the hyper, Gryffindor just won the Quidditch cup at the sorting community I'm active in and I'm a little flaily over it.

Anyway, about my characters...

Callen Warrington - [info]manofaction. Callen is one of the three chasers for the Magpies. He's had a crush on Alicia since about second year. Obviously, that has worked out well for him. He had a FWB in Sarah Montgomery, but I think she was dropped, so he is in need of having that line filled again. Lol. He's a 1995 Slytherin.

Katie Bell - [info]goldenchaser. Katie is a chaser for Puddlemere United. She had a mad crush on Oliver Wood at Hogwarts, but she's over that now. She is perpetually single, so her mum keeps setting her up on these really awful blind dates, which is always amusing (for me). She's best friends, as always, with Alicia and Angelina. GIVE HER LOVE SHE IS AWESOME. 97 Gryffindor, of course.

Meghan McCormack - [info]pridekeeper. Keeper and Captain for Pride of Portree. She's a little obsessed with Quidditch and winning and all of that. Quidditch is kind of her life. Someone should pick up Kirley, because she really needs her brother in her life. She's a 94 Ravenclaw and BFF with Penny Clearwater. Someone should pick up Penny, Percy, etc, so she can have her friends/yearmates around.

Ron Weasley - [info]ohroonil. Do I really need to introduce this one? Ron is.. Ron. He worked as an Auror for awhile before giving that up to work with George at WWW. He's married to Hermione. He kind of wants to start having kids, but he hasn't found the balls to tell Hermione this, yet. For now, he's just living vicariously through his friends and sibling who have babies. Someone please find us a Harry and a Hermione? He needs his biffles.

So, those are my people! Let's plot it up and if you'd like to do a scene, let's start one up. I'm open to any ideas! :)

[info]gingerharpy

Hello, everyone! My name is Laura and Holly is an enabler this is Ginny! Quick blurb about me: I'm a teacher (currently substituting until something permanent comes along), I live in the midwest, I am obsessed with geocaching (which tends to take me on adventures away from the computer), and I've been playing in HP games since 2000 (I feel so old when I say that), with multiple incarnations of Ginny mixed in there.

As for Ginny, I tried to stick with as much of her back story as I could. She's still married, she still has James already in her life, and she just found out that she's pregnant again. So there's a lot of personal angst over what to do. She took the 03-04 season off due to pregnancy and maternity leave, but did some PR work for the Harpies in the meantime, so she's been itching to get back and now she's back in the same boat.

So there you have it! I'm always up for plotting and I'd love to hear your thoughts on things, and to get to know everyone! I'm very friendly so feel free to say hello if you see me online. My aim sn is adorkablelaurie.

Hey all...

I feel COMPLETELY awful for doing this, as I've been around so little lately, and it's not that this place isn't amazing, and well thought out, and full of brilliant characters and interesting activity. But I'm going to have to leave :(

My schedule over the past two weeks or so has been crazy, and on top of that I've been on and off sick (curse working in a nursery!) and I've just not had the time to check in, and when I have had time, I've been too tired to write anything that would be in character, or I just fall asleep. And it's not fair on anyone if I keep pretending I can stick around.

Like I said though, I do completely adore this place, and think it's a wonderful idea, and have loved my time here. And I'm so so sorry that I never got to play Sarah out, or play out more of Ginny's pregnancy. Hopefully I'll catch you all around some other time :) xx

[info]lincolnmoon

Hi Guys.

Because I have no life and get bored easily, I picked up another character. The adorable Lincoln Moon. When I say adorable, I mean that adorable, full of energy, Gryffindorish sort of thing. As you know he's the other owner of The Squealing Snitch, what you don't know is that he's the opposite side of the spectrum to Lia. Oh, they're both friendly people, but where Lia is quiet, Lincoln won't stop talking. He's never more comfortable than when he's behind the bar, pouring drinks, and talking to anyone who stands still long enough to listen.

He's very much the sort of person who loves based on personality rather than looks and gender and, true to his Gryffindor nature, jumps right in. All of his details can be found here. Friends, Enemies, Past Interactions, the good stuff?

[info]hjgranger

I am made of fail.

Hi! I'm Alexandra and have Hermione here who is well you all know her :p She's married to Ron and is the same old 'Mione.

I'm available at [info]lace_and_cream or my email which doubles as my aim - theladyunicorn@gmail.com

Charity

OVER RIDING CHARITY FUN!!!

The original idea was that 12 Quidditch players have either volunteered, or been told to be apart of it who are the main focus for driving people to donate money. Originally when we came up with this idea there weren't even 12 players in the game! Now that it isn't the case it's going to change some because we want everyone to be involved. So if you have a Quidditch player who does NOT want to be apart of this please let me know ASAP so I don't go out and find pictures and things and find out that we don't want them!

The Timeline & Events.

1. December 4th, as suggested by Lisa, anyone who is NOT a Quidditch player, but perhaps works for a team or is involved with the industry who would like to volunteer their time to helping make sure everything runs smoothly will have a happy hour & dinner. Lavender Brown will send out invites to those of you. So far I have: Kensi Montgomery, Emma Dobbs, Tasia Runcorn, Demelza Robins & Lia Moon interested in helping out. Anyone else is of course welcome (Cho?). During this meeting, and Lavender will start a thread as well to get things going they'll talk about events, assign tasks and sent on their marry little ways!

2. A 2005 Calendar: This will come out in December. All the Quidditch players involved will be in it. It's going to be a weekly calendar so we can fit in everyone at least once to three times depending on random.org. I've found lots of pictures for all characters but if you have suggestions please make sure that they are HQ and rather large!!!

3. Charity Ball: (Before Christmas). A huge event where each player will be at a different table and anyone else who bought a ticket will be randomly placed at tables. In some cases 2 or 3 players will be at the same table merely for interaction! Seats will be assigned using random.org. If a player invites someone they can be at the same table if requested.

4. Date Auction: (February). Around Valentine's Day, there will be a date auction for everyone to bid on the players and win a date with the player. There will be a party after the auction and a huge open thread. There will also be an OOC post to figure out who is bidding on whom to make life a little easier! Players get to pick which charity the money goes to in this one!

5. Carnival: (March). First thank you to Nicole for the idea! In the middle of March when everyone is getting sick of the snow and all the cold, One of the pitches (they'll be bidding to win, and it'll be part of what's in the news) will host a carnival. To kick off the carnival there will be a friendly match between the participating players. They'll be picked at random that day and have only one hour to get ready for the match! After the match, which will have a 2 hour time limit everyone attending will receive a free drink will the pitch is changed into a carnival ground. There will be games, challenges, food and more! *** This is a huge one that all the volunteers can help with!

6. End of Season Bash: (May). A huge beach themed party for everyone involved for the year!

7. Other Charity during the year: Anything a team wants to do, please do it! We also had an idea for post secret which will be introduced soon! If you have ideas for spin offs, or anything let us know!

Okay, since I know this is A LOT, here is a text box to fill out!




* We also have a post on the mod journal to keep track!

[info]keepmiles

Intro

Alright Jules again with another character! Probably my last one for... awhile at least. Trying to pace myself and all xD!

So this is Miles Bletchley, former Slytherin Keeper. The Blethcley family is a famous pureblood name, but only because his Grandmother is the famous singer, 'Madame Bletchley'. She was never married for long, so she kept her maiden name. She only had one kid, Miles' dad, who is pretty much a stiff and he works at the Ministry. Miles is far more exciting.

After school, he'd gotten accepted as a reserve player for Wigtown Wanderers, and eventually got up to a first string position, until a few years ago when he got a better offer with the Falmouth Falcons. And that is where he is to stay for now! Playing with his old team and mates from school.

So Miles was kind of the class clown in Slytherin. No where near the caliber of the Weasleys, but he'd get some pranks in. Usually before Quidditch matches with Gryffindor, like when he hit Alicia with a hex that grew her eyebrows out.

Miles is very serious about one thing though, and that's Quidditch. If you only see him as a Quidditch player, you'd think he was just stone faced and serious (unless he was doing some kind of victory lap for a win) but he rarely show boats. Miles actually tends to have more energy than he knows what to do with, so he spends a lot of time practicing, working out, or just hanging out with mates. Basically he just keeps busy. He's barely ever home, unless he needs to eat, sleep or taking a girl home. And while Miles is a flirt, he tends to actually be a bit more romantic. He actually likes to date one girl for awhile and have fun (maybe not a solid commitment, but not a one night stand either)

Annnnd I think that's pretty much it. So friends? enemeies? plots? ex-girlfriends? Bring them here :D

Hi guys, just a note to let you all know I've dropped Theodore. :( It makes me sad because I love him, but with my work weeks still running well over 40 hours, I have to scale back to what is most easiest for me to keep up with. I'm still around though! Just with only George and Cho, not Theodore. :(

[info]bluebutterflies

Hi guys! Holly here with my third and most likely last character, Cho Chang! She is a licensed psychologist who got her degree in the Muggle world (in canon she marries a Muggle, so I'm just playing off that idea slightly) and is trying to introduce the concept of psychology into the wizarding world through St Mungo's. When she's not doing that, she works as a part-time model, though as she's very short, she only does things like adverts and whatnot.

She's a huge sweetheart, though she's definitely toughened up since the war, partly due to her studies as she's come to understand everything a lot better. Her full bio is here for your perusing pleasure. :) Anyway, I'd love plot with her, and she's very friendly, though at first she might seem a bit distant, but that's just her professionalism and politeness coming through.

I'm rubberbandtheory on AIM! Yay!

[info]adepucey

*waves* hi all. The names Dani and I'm kinda boring. Exciting. I know. It is even more exciting, however, that I'm bringing into play one, Adrian Pucey. Not going to get into the full name thing because it's long and stuffy sounding. Pureblood. Enough said. Just call him Ade.

At 27, he's currently stuck in between family responsibilities and his own love for Quidditch. I am loath to say he is the typical slytherin. He's snotty, arrogant, and will do whatever he has to do in order to get what he wants. Typical slytherin behavior. HOWEVER, he's also not entirely stuck on the whole blood purity thing, firmly believes that women should be treated with respect, and secretly is the most adorable big brother ever ... not that he would appreciate that bit of information getting out, thank you very much.

Ade's all about Quidditch, but he has made peace with the fact that sooner or later he is going to have to give it up in order to be the Head of the family and take over his father's business: acquiring rare (and, more often than not, illegal) objects for particular clients. While he does enjoy a good challenge, he's not looking forward to loosing the adrenaline rush Quidditch gives him. Given his inevitable path in life, it's easy to see why he's all about the game at the moment. His Father isn't getting any younger.

Want more? You can find it here. Feel free to poke around.

Friends? Enemies? Exes? Third Cousins twice removed on his Mother's side?

Intro

Well hello, I'm Jules and I'm new. And I'm sure I know... someone around here. Maybe? Yes? xD! Anyways, for those who don't, I'm 24 and a substitute teacher. I've been rping for over 9 years, and I'm recently coming out of a modding gig for a game that was over two years old... kind of put me out of the main rping loop (though I was in some games but not much stuck), so now consider me back in! Though I am trying to pace myself lol.

But what's most important here is Zach. This is Zacharias Smith, former Hufflepuf and still an asshole. Zacharias is most memorably known for being a jerk, pissing off Ginny Weasley, Captaining the Hufflepuff Quidditch team after Cedric's death and pushing first years out of the way in an attempt to save his own skin before the Battle for Hogwarts.

Zach was born in a pureblood household that claimed to be the descendants of Helga Hufflepuff herself, so he was just raised to be that snobbish and stuck up. Also, he is quite utterly and obviously gay. Not that he came out of the closet till after school was done, but really probably no one was surprised. His parents don't know though.

Once the wizarding world had settled after the war, and Quidditch was a possibility, Zach became a reserve chaser for the Appleby Arrows, till he eventually worked up to starting Chaser. He totally lives the lavish lifestyle as a sports star. He drinks, parties, goes clubbing, and shags any guy that shows an interest. He lives life into excess and he likes it. It's going to bite him in the ass though eventually.

Sooooo.... Zach needs some plot. Friends, he needa them (he really needs a fag hag >>)? Enemies, you know the exist. Anything else you want to plot, let me know! My aim is corbexx!

[info]mynameisemma

Hello everyone! I'm Lisa and I'm bringing in Emma Dobbs! I'm 27 and I've been RP'ing forever! I currently work in retail... yes, that's what an English degree does for you these days. So, Black Friday, here I come. I'm around more often then not and... that's about it. I'm not super interesting.

She's not your usual Slytherin (practically a muggleborn)! Her father is a muggleborn and her mother was a muggle. Emma's of the younger crowd and is part muggle aristocracy. Her father is a Baron but as he's presumed dead in the muggle world, that title passed to a distant cousin. She's twenty-one and attended Hogwarts between 1994-2001. Emma's a quiet and keeps to her self for the most part and is very stiff and cold in person. She's quite good at scathing looks and very good at spinning a good story. She's working as the Assistant Secretary to the Falmouth Falcon's Publicist. She writes a lot of press releases and gets coffee. She likes Quidditch well enough but doesn't go crazy over it. She doesn't really go crazy over anything. If there was one flavor to describe Emma, it'd be Vanilla.

You can read more here!

Feel free to find me on AIM! I'm DumbledoresGirl! I'm excited to play with you all!

Hello, all..

Sinuses + Retail + Black Friday this week = Hiatus.

I'll be back as soon as possibly, but work is kicking my butt right now and between that and this head cold I'm getting, I've been finding it hard to find the time to play. I think my schedule might settle down a little after this week, so I hope to be back into the swing of things soon!

Fun Stuff!!!

More Mod Updates & Fun!

First, I finally have the HTML Quidditch Standings updated. took a little while! sorry about that.

Second, our Roger Player Jori has come up with a good idea for Witch Weekly! The suggestion was to have IM interviews to include in Witch Weekly. Because it's hard to catch everyone on IM here is a text box with a number of questions that a reporter could ask. Pick as little or as many as you'd like for your Quidditch Players, PR kids, shop owner, anyone who would logically be interviewed (not some of these are targeted to Quidditch played, feel free to add any questions as well)! Fill it out if you'd like to, or if you'd not like to, that's cool too! Comments will be screed to make sure that the interviews come as a surprise!



Third, Opps! I forgot the friend button! We've added a new character! HIT THE FRIEND BUTTON. Ally added Terence Higgs!!! Please make sure to hit it, there are a number of characters added lately that haven't been added to some characters friends lists!

Fourth, Happy Days!!!!

I ADMIT! I ALICE HAS ISSUES!

I knew I wanted her, I told myself, hold back Alice, hold back... That didn't happen! CLEARLY! XD.

This girl is Rebecca Bradley. She is from Ravneclaw 1996. She is a chaser for Tutshill as of today, as of tomorrow she is with PUDDLEMERE! She is someone that is being traded. She is impossible to really figure out. She's very smart, but curses while using big words. he is refined sometimes but will join burping competitions.... She grew up half in the UK and half in the States (California). She loves surfing and Quidditch. She loves bags but hates purses. She's soft spoken when she needs to be, but loud otherwise. Rebecca likes to be "one of the boys" or "one of the girls" so to speak, and she likes both. She likes to be able to keep up with the boys at the bars, on the pitch, in the water and everywhere else. She likes to be one of the girls as well. Rebecca likes both sides of life and finds they need to be different sides of life. Rarely do they come together well. Rebecca doesn't like to be seen as one of the boys when she's with the girls or vise-versa. However that is where she is at. It is a balancing act she has yet to learn. Rebecca isn't 100% comfortable with who she is and that's what she's trying to figure out.

Rebecca is from a LARGE family of two muggleborn parents each of which are from families with teams. I would LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE her sibs in play. Her twin sister is Jessica a Hufflepuff who can be identical or not... But must look very similar. Her older brothers Elijah and Gabriel who are twins and Zachary who is not a twin. And her younger brothers Nate who is not a twin and John and Josh who are identical! Love family plot!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE family plot!

PLOT PLEAZE!! XD XD XD XD
