Fifty-Four Diagon Alley OOC

Hi all! The Bad Robyn here with my number 4. I think this is officially the most characters I've had in one game in YEARS since I modded last, so you all must be special.

This is Gillian Goldstein. She is:

• Stats: 23, former Hufflepuff, years 87-94, single, Anthony's big sister, roomies with Fiona


• Passion: Art - she does big money ancestral portraits, sketched portraits for donation in Diagon Alley, caricatures also for donation, and comic books. The comic books are called Gag Me and are political and social commentary slice-of-life books she self-publishes mostly anonymously. More info in her bio if anyone follows it.


• Mythos: Some people may also know "Gag Me" because that was how she signed all of her anti-war, anti-DE, anti-Voldemort, pro-Potter, etc etc literature/graffiti/posters/etc that she made and distributed to encourage people to fight the Dark Side during the war. She was caught and send to Azkaban for it.


• Day Job: She works at "Leaf and Bean", a quirky coffee shop in Diagon Alley that also displays and sells her paintings. She's not great at the menial bits of her job (making coffee, serving customers), but she loves trying to encourage culture, and hosts a bunch of events at the coffee shop: art nights, slam poetry nights, open mic nights, improv nights, etc.


• Personality/Random: She's a bit weird/hippie/metaphorical/metaphysical. She loves her little brother lots. She is often covered in paint. She keeps a sketchbook of random faces she's seen about the place, so she might have your character in her purse. She sort of was in a muggle porno once, but it was actually a softcore art film to put herself through art school.

I'm terrible at intros. But she needs friends, exes (she's straight), regulars at the coffee shop, maybe older families who've sat for portraits with her, enemies (maybe she graffitied your Manor, purebloods?), uhhh... whatever! All the things.

I know there are a million intros for new chars right now. I will TRY to be patient, but it is not my strong suit. XDDDD

Hi all!

Well, I am sorry to say that I am going on a brief hiatus. Company arrives today, and we are going on a trip with them, so my computer time will be really spotty from today until May 2nd.

I didn't set up my chars for my absence it as well as I could have, and I'm sorry about that, because I've been scrambling to get done what I thought I could/would due to family emergency taking up my time and energy this last week or so. (Including why I totally dropped the ball again and didn't have Charlie all over that stag thread, omg so sorry, can we just pretend he was floating and being social, erg my bad.)

Sooooo, I guess I'm saying thank you for understanding my spottiness thus far, and I am asking for some suspension of disbelief around things for a week, and then I intend to be whole heartedly back to play with you all.

Charlie - While I am busy, can we just pretend he is still doing his thing, hanging out with Penny, annoying his family, and taking Daphne to the wedding? I will try to be active with him a bit, or at least check in with people about what I'm missing, because he has so much going on right now.

Parvati - Just assume she is working long hours at Oracle, eating at the pub most nights, and doing her thing. I will get her more active with some fun plots planned for early May, so woo hoo there.

Thanks guys, and sorry!

--The First Robyn (lol, doesn't that sound epic?)

Hello all! I'm Robyn, bringing in Parvati Patil.

A bit of character info in which I try not to ramble too much:

• Parvati is 20, bisexual (guess she prompted the cap on LGBT, sorry folks!), single, and lives at #504 54 Diagon Alley (only since November).


• She is friendly-ish with her neighbours, but has some anxiety issues that can sometimes result in her seeming a bit odd. She also eats dinner at the pub a lot, and gets a lot more outgoing after a few drinks, so neighbours might know her that way too.


• She is Flynn's Divination Apprentice and shop girl at Oracle. This is a bit recent, only started in early November. She puts on a bit of a friendlier face than she usually feels while she's at work, and doing well is really important to her so she tries hard.


• She was severely injured in the Battle of Hogwarts by a dark hex that left her with chronic pain in her left leg/hip, scarring all over her left thigh and hip and lower abdomen, and infertility. She's bitter about this, but tries to hide it. She spent a long time recovering at home and avoiding people while she healed.


• Parvati is not quite as bright and bubbly as people might remember from pre-BOH. She's a bit guarded as a result of her aforementioned anxiety, and had a sort-of suicide attempt while recovering. She's working on herself and trying to get back to being more social/normal.

Parvati would love to reconnect with old friends/acquaintances, make new friends, run into old foes, maybe ex or two from Hogwarts days, etc etc. I love non-romantic and dramatic/angsty plots, but am also interested in seeing how a romance plot might develop for her with all of her baggage.

I will post in the wanteds when I get home from work tonight, but just throwing it out there that I would LOVE to see Padma in play. Twins for the win!

Can't wait to plot. I can be reached here in comments, sometimes on AIM at "aforgetfulgirl", and via email at alieandvixx at gmail.com. I will also get around to putting up OOC and IC contact posts soon. :)

This post is just a tag list.
