Finnigan's OOC

Hi sweet kittens of this lovely game

I'm DCJ (21+, GMT) who plays Theodore Nott over on nottfinished and has now been allowed to overhaul and reintroduce Merwyn Finwick

Merwyn is 25, former Ravenclaw of '97 and former Keeper for the Tutshill Tornados. He's also narcoleptic, which is why he was kicked off the team and out of the relationship he was in with Brevis Birch (now wanted).

Anyone who knew him through school would have known him as Marian - he was born female but transitioned to male, starting when he was 13 and legally becoming Merwyn Joseph Finwick in 1997 when he was 18, just before he joined the Tornados. I'm not sure how many people know about that, but his face is still the same kind of pretty.

He's been living beyond his means on the money he made while he was playing Pro-Quidditch but that's rapidly running dry. He keeps insisting on flying even with his narcolepsy and he's also been admitted to hospital for 'accidental' self-injury before too. His money is coming to an end, so he's going to be losing his home and most of his fair-weather friends once that goes.

I'm looking for friends (true or only around for the cash), people who lost money betting on his Quidditch games and want payback, old team members and Quidditch players who might have known him, fuck-buddies, drinking-buddies, dorm-buddies and House-buddies. Someone who knew him/crushed on him while he was a girl and meets up again now would be interesting, as would one of his first crushes who was a Durmstrang participant in the Triwizard Tournament (he ran out on the guy in question, mid transition and still living as a girl, so that might be awkward) and Brevis Birch would make all my Christmasses in June.

Hello everyone! I'm Sarah, and I previously played here and then life ate me and I had to go away for a while :( I actually didn't write at all for like 4 months and it was awful. But my life is looking better and I have actual days off work, so I'm excited to get back into the swing of writing. For those that don't know me, I'm a high school teacher/Speech & Debate coach in CA (so PST) and I love plotting on AIM (oliverwoodwood-hit me up any time!).

I'm bringing back this gentleman right here. Eddie Carmichael is a Ravenclaw '97, and a cursebreaker from Gringott's. He's a very annoying combination of blase about life and then super passionate about the specific things he enjoys. He's excitable, curious and a generally fun person to have around, if a little frustrating at times. Like his tendency to not be able to deal with emotions and run away from commitment, which is actually just what he returned from doing. Last he was here, he started an intense fling with Susan Bones, realized he had feelings for her, and promptly volunteered for the next overseas mission...and the next. He realizes that he probably messed things up forever with her, but now he's back, helping finish the mission at Gringotts and assisting with the training of the latest round of cursebreakers (including his friend Rose who he is sure will give him an earful). He's obsessed with Time Turner's Tales, feel free to discuss it with him. Um....a lot more in his bio here.

Okay, give me all your things! I've missed you all!

Hallo game!

I'm DCJ and I've had Theodore Nott here for a while but I haven't been active with him for the last couple of months because I suck at life and in general.

I'd love to get reinvolved in the game. Theo's going to have been at the Janus Thickey ward in St Mungo's for the last few weeks after a small breakdown that he might have had after Ernie stopped contacting him and then Valentine's Day happened

He's in need of lines, friends, Romans, countrymen, and after losing Ernie I'd love a complicated love interest for him which I will go ahead and pimp for now. He also needs somewhere to work as he's currently unemployed and will need somewhere to live too - anyone looking for roomies?

Just wanted to apologise to everyone for being a flake and to say I'm back and ready to go!
I'm also going to reboot Merwyn and reapping him soon

Thank you all!

Hey everyone! I'd like to introduce you to my 5th character, Julian Travers. You've just met his brother Tristan, who's getting out of jail as we speak, but here's a few things about Julian.

Has a golden retriever named Wallace (seen in this post's icon)

Is extremely flirtatious and hits on everyone - he's pansexual and polyamorous, he doesn't do monogamy and is pretty happy living a life free of responsibility of any kind

Like his brother, was active with the side of the Death Eaters during the war and did some things he regrets greatly. Unlike his brother, he a) went on the run long before the Battle of Hogwarts, never got the Dark Mark, and has never been tied to the Death Eaters aside from being the son of one (in other words, has never served time or been caught for his crimes), and b) did what he did with full control of his faculties (no Imperius or threats or anything for the most part - only the desire to impress and stand with the father he'd missed 15 years of his life)

Is active in the Fawley Foundation and loves children - he took his big brother duties seriously with Tristan, and more or less adopted cousins Pandora and Hyperion as supplemental siblings.

His mother's mental condition is steps away from being a permanent resident in Janus Thickey, so he does what he can to take care of her at home and give her some sort of exposure to the outside world.

Comes from a rich family and doesn't think he needs to work for a living.

Is a Hufflepuff who graduated in '93

Has major abandonment issues and can't stand to sleep alone - when he doesn't have a lover over (which is rare enough), Wallace keeps him company.

Used to believe in pureblood supremacy because it was what his father believed in, but hid this a lot at school in order to fit in and survive in his House. After the war, he's re-evaluated his beliefs and tried to find out what he thinks and believes, rather than what he thinks his father would want.

Is a coward who hates confrontation.

So that's a little about Julian! Am up for all kinds of plotz, from past/present/future lovers to relatives of the people he's killed to make his life awkward and shameful.

Hey guys! It's me, Dylan! Bringing in number four because who needs a life, am I right?

So this is my boy Hyperion Montgomery (aka Hype / Angus / Hamish (from this one girlfriend okay shhh) / Peri) brother of Pandora Montgomery and cousin of... Pretty much every pureblood in the game.

Some facts about the lad:

• He was a Gryffindor.
  
• He's 27.
  
• He's an Auror.
  
• He's demisexual (so ex or future boyfriends and girlfriends hola.)
  
• He was in the Order of the Phoenix.
  
• He has an utterly ridiculous house.
  
• He has a very black and white view of the world (so you know, I'd love some people to help challenge that.)
  
• His baby brother was killed by Death Eaters and his sister basically joined them to stop them killing the rest of their family. He wasn't there at the time so doesn't know any of this.
  
• His mother is the Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, but surprisingly isn't nepotistic.
  
• Idk he's pretty hot.
  
• Seriously look at that.
  
• Hot damn.
  
• He's Scottish, so that's a thing.
  
• He's allergic to bees and has a phobia of frogs - so frog bees would just terrify him.
  
• He's tall - 6'2" and slim.
  
• He loves reading.
  
• He's a bit of an adrenaline junkie.
  
• He dated a Durmstrang guy during the Triwizard Tournament.

But yes, I am open to any and all plots! Worst friends and dear enemies, fellow Aurors, MoM peeps, Durmstrang connections, relatives, romance, past relationships, friendship, romance, anything!

*waves*

Well, I am Meg. I bring to you Julienne (Jules, Julie) Dorny. Former Slytherin turned PR guru. After the war she retreated to France (and her fraternal twin brother) to move on. An ill father has brought them both back. (If ANYONE wants to pick up her brother for awesome times - you are my hero.) She can still have the occasional night terror from that but for the most part is a bright, flirty young woman who is setting up her own business and trying to keep her brother and father from driving her around the bend.

Plots - she needs them all! Friends, Enemies, Frienemies, Ex's (there is a guy that has been on and off for ages that awkwardness would be hilarious since the last time she MIGHT have left him while he was on a business trip - with no note.) She has trust issues, works too much and needs to be drug out and made to socialize.

You can find me on AIM at MegWrt, or by email at megschaos at gmail.

I am REALLY looking forward to playing with all of you!

Oh, hey. Look who ( it is )

This is Natasha with number four. Yes, Ron Weasley is here in all his Hermione-loving, Cannons-supporting, chess-playing ginger glory.

So, he's an Auror, which he doesn't really like much. And he still lives at home because he spends so much time at Harry and Hermione's place that he never thought to actually move out. Obviously, he loves chess club. And, y'know, his family.

You can read all about him here. All plots and types of relationships welcome!

BINGO!! Yes, Christie here and I finally have my house bingo.

This here is Hannah Abbott. She works as the Hospitality Manager at the Leaky Cauldron which basically means she's the check in and check out girl for the inn portion of the establishment. Hannah lives with her Muggle father and step-mother and will be a big sister soon. She's generally friendly but can be fierce when necessary. She tends to be a bit pessimistic. You can learn more about her here.

Can't wait to get her into the swing of things.

Hey friends! I'm Emily, and Bill Weasley is here to enchant ( you )

Hello Everyone!

My name is Dea and I'm a newbie to your game. I'm bringing with me Fleur Weasley who you probably already know from the books. She's still happily married to Bill, the mother to Victoire and Dominique and a working cursebreaker. Her English has vastly improved after living and working in England so long, but sometimes she plays up her ignorance and accent to get out of things she doesn't want to do. To her friends she is loyal and caring, to strangers she is nice but can also seem abrupt and even snotty. She doesn't always mean to be condescending, but she's blunt, honest and doesn't always know how to soften her sentiments. She's a member of the dueling club at Finnigans and tries to get to yoga, but fails 90% of the time.

I would love to talk plot and look forward to playing with all of you!

Hello, I'm James (Jim). I'll be playing this guy here, Romeo García-Davies. He's a halfblood in every sense of the word. His dad's a muggle, his mamá is a witch... and his dad's English, while his mamá is Mexican.

Romeo has been in the UK since he was eleven. He was born in Mexico, and actually got his letter there, to attend the Mexican version of Hogwarts. But his father, funnily enough, was the one to insist that the family come back to England so that Romeo could go to Hogwarts. (After finding out that his new wife was a witch he panicked a little but then he did research, and he wanted his son to study under Dumbledore, basically).

All of his info can be found at the linked bio, and I can be found on AIM at jamesalanpark! I look forward to playing with you all.

This is Jasmine (again) with my third and likely last at least for a bit. (I say this now, LOL)

This is Viktor Krum. He's 28, and he's been through a lot since his time at the Triwizard Tournament. He's currently here with his two littles, aged 7 and almost 1 1/2, and has taken up Quidditch again as the Seeker of the Montrose Magpies. You can find out more HERE.

He's looking for connections of all sorts -- friends, enemies, fellow players, a nanny!, new acquaintances, new relationship/s, everything! GIVE ME YOUR PLOTS!!!

(sorry to be so short.. I never know what to say!)

:D

Hey everyone, this is Jinx with my #2 - meet Stacey Rivers, a Muggleborn Hufflepuff of the '99 class. She owns a tattoo parlor in Monument Alley called Pinky's Ink and lives with Zacharias Smith. She has the energy level of a puppy on seven shots of espresso and she is not afraid to speak her mind on anything. Her full profile is here, and she needs friends, customers, fellow artists to talk, and just about anything else, although she is asexual and aromatic, so no relationship lines for her. I'm looking forward to getting her started with everyone!

So, having a week off is clearly dangerous because I'm presenting my fifth (and last, I swear) character: Susanna Bryony Capper. Anick, Kat and Jinx will remember her from when she was Orla Quirke, but her backstory has changed a little since then.

- For a start, she's a Capper now. The Cappers are purebloods but not purists (though Bryony's mother Iris was an Avery before she married, so...) and they're known for being eccentrically old-fashioned. Bryony's father Ephron Capper is a historian who's written books so academic characters may know the name. Bryony has some very old-fashioned manners which may seem weird to more modern types.
- Bryony was two years younger than the trio, Ravenclaw. She was in school for PoA and GoF, then got taken out of school because she has protective (read: suffocating) parents. She was back for DH because it was compulsory and then for a further two years after that. Her family made it very clear they thought Ravenclaw was Not Good Enough and Bryony was too much of a doormat to stand up for herself so she went along with it when her sister tried to force her to make friends with Slytherins instead.
- Despite a six year age difference she spent most of her life certain she'd eventually marry Marcus Flint. Characters who were at school during DH will definitely be aware of this as the Carrows made a big deal of it, alternately telling her she wasn't good enough for their nephew and excusing her from punishment because of her 'connections'. Bryony felt guilty about it, but there wasn't a lot she could do.
- Characters with any connection to the pureblood world will likely know that that engagement fell through, though they may not know exactly why.
- She's currently living with her aunt Hecuba and her cats, working as an apprentice under the artist Dean also apprenticed under.
- Oh, she's quidditch obsessed but it's a secret because it's not appropriate for a lady to attend quidditch matches (according to her mother).
- She's overweight and ashamed of it but can't seem to fix it.

In terms of future plots, Bryony needs some friends! She will be starstruck around Quidditch players! Her mother's pushing her to date so awkward arranged dinners with pureblood lads! She needs to practice her portraits, if anyone wants to be sketched or painted. She'll also be approaching the leaders of various activities (Lavender/duelling club, Vee/yoga and Ginny/dance) to ask if she can sit in on a session and sketch. Anyone who hurts her will have Marcus to deal with ;-)

Her info is here and it's somehow even longer than this post already is.

Well, hello! This is Natasha with #3, Emma Dobbs!

Emma is a former Hufflepuff, class of 2001. She looks sweet, but will probably give you a healthy dose of TMI when you talk to her, which is probably fitting as she works at Quickpulse. Additionally, she works as one of Romilda's escorts.

She's LOUD and excitable, can't hold her drink, and is a massive Quidditch fan (even though she can't ride a broom to save her life). Go Falcons! But she's also good at keeping secrets and definitely doesn't have her head in the clouds.

I'm open to all sorts of plots. Anyone want a flatmate? Friends? People she's shagged (not everyone she sleeps with has paid for it)?

Hey everyone, Lis here with my third, Hestia Duvall, though most will remember her as Hestia Carrow from school. She was two years behind the Trio and in Slytherin. She went off to the States as her father's representative in the winged horse racing circuit, both racing and buying/trading. There, she met quidditch player and USA National Team Member Troy Duvall, and they eloped a few months later. Six months ago Hestia's father died and she had to return to the UK to take control/officially head Halcyon Stables. All while pregnant as she discovered a few months ago.

I wouldn't call Hestia the 'typical' Slytherin, mostly because she doesn't give two knuts what you think and is going to do what she wants, regardless. Don't even think about rubbing her belly or you may lose a hand. She has a sarcastic sense of humor and is almost stupidly competitive, but she's not all 'yay pureblood supremacy' like her infamous aunt and uncle. She kept her head down during that year, which earned her no favors, but see above: Hestia doesn't care. Her current hobbies include the stables and horses, surviving this pregnancy without going stir crazy, and driving her mother mad.

I would love friends for Hestia. People who dislike her based on her family alone. People who are into horses. Quidditch associated people (Troy is in talks to sign with a BIL team).

( Some new info about Hannah Abbott )

Hello boys and girls and others, it's your friendly neighbourhood Dylan bringing you Dennis Finnigan Creevey!

• Gryffindor, 21 years old, Gay (because this game needed more of the gay)
  
• He's a journalist working the Crime and Justice beat at the Daily Prophet
  
• He writes under the pseudonym Finn Collins
  
• His brother's death has HUGELY affected him. Make a joke about Colin Creevey and you may find yourself cursed.
  
• He is a complete daredevil with a sometimes scary lack of regard for his own wellbeing, so any daredevils where you at?
  
• He's more curious than a bag full of cats
  
• His ex-boyfriend left him for his now ex-best friend and he's pretty torn up about it - especially since they maintain that the cheating was all his fault for working so much. It's kind of shattered his confidence with men
  
• He's willing to play with pretty much anyone, but if you're a dark wizard or a criminal he doesn't have the time of day for you. Although he has come to the conclusion that not every Death Eater was there by choice
  
• Open to any and all storylines - antagonistic, friendly, flirty, unrequited affections, work friends, someone who he should hate but doesn't. ANYTHING.

New player Terry here - I think some of you know me - with Richard Harrington Summerby. Call him Rich, or Bee. Some people might remember him as the one who took over Cedric's position after the TriWizard. He was a Hufflepuff, class of 96. When he graduated, he turned down an offer to play Seeker or Chaser for the Falcons and went into Auror training. He quit when Voldie's crew took over the Ministry and joined the resistance, first raising funds and bringing supplies into England, and later Smuggling people out. Some people might know him as Ridgeback, or remember a disreputable older Frenchman named Jean Forgeron. Some Snatchers and a few Death Eaters know him as the last person they saw in their life. He took part in the Battle of Hogwarts, and it was there he lost his girlfriend, a Ravenclaw a few years younger than him. He still visits her grave every year on the anniversary of her death. After the end of the war he went to work on the Swedish Dragon Reserve, but that didn't work out.
                     
Fellow Puffs might know that he's been a broom racer since he was six, starting out on a kiddy broom. If anybody follows the racing circuit, he's known as a talented amateur, one class below the pros. He has also been doing a little test flying for a reincarnated Bluebottle. You can catch him most weekends practicing on one local track or another, or giving flying lessons and instructing beginning racers.
             
Richard is a junior partner (quite well paid) at International Exports, where his father is a Senior Partner. His job has him jumping all over the globe working deals. He's based out of the London office now, and should be around a lot more. He sometimes trades on his broom racing contacts and his ability with languages to land deals others can't. If you want to buy, sell, or transport anything internationally, he probably 'knows somebody'.
              
An accomplished dancer, given to good books, fine dining and the Theater, well-off, not too bad looking. Why hasn't some lady landed him? Rich has a bit of a PTSD problem. He still sees the faces of everybody he killed and everybody he couldn't save in his nightmares. Serious commitment issues in a relationship. Most girls aren't interested in visiting a former girlfriend's grave. Will there be someone who can help him get past this little problem? Time will tell.
                  
Take a look at the boy's character sheet for more details. Open to friends, enemies, romance, almost anything. I work an odd schedule so I'm off and on line all sorts of odd hours, usually on my phone. I can be reached at terry dot buyers at gmail dot com or simiangrudge on AIM.

Hello lovelies, Kaylie here! After what feels like weeks and weeks of talking about him, I finally bring you Gregory Goyle, the least talkative character I've ever played.

His backstory is largely canon but here's some things you may want to know:

- Until after the Battle of Hogwarts he had an undiagnosed hearing impairment that made it hard to understand people and meant he had trouble pronouncing words correctly. It's all fixed now, so he's not as stupid as some characters may remember (he's still a pretty slow-thinker, though).
- After a year off adjusting to full hearing / mourning Vincent Crabbe he went back to school and managed to achieve a whole two NEWTs. Since then he's been volunteering/performing community service clearing various DE properties of dark magic.
- His mum still basically rules his life and what decisions she doesn't make are probably influenced by Pansy or Draco. She kicked him out of her house so she could court Ernie's uncle and told him to find a job and a flat in Monument Alley (one out of two ain't bad).
- He lives above McHavelock's Wizarding Headgear. He works (or is about to start work) for George at WWW.
- He's Marcus's cousin (his mother was a Flint before she married) and they're the same height.

Sooo, hit me with backstory / forwardstory / sideways stories. I'll update the cast list tomorrow with Greg and our other two new characters.

Hello, Christie here with my number three and one away from a House Bingo. (Can't think of any Hufflepuff muses I have that aren't already taken.)

This is Marietta Edgecomb, bane of the Trio. Okay maybe she really isn't but that's how she feels and she can't stand any of them and stays out of their way at all costs. She didn't fight the Battle of Hogwarts and many people may hold that against her but what they don't know is that she hid a young muggleborn mother and son in the cellar of her cottage through the entirety of the war.

She has remained on friendly terms with Ravenclaws from her year (read as Cho, Melinda, and Roger). She does her best to be pleasant toward others but can come across as rather awkward. Some of the things she'll say trying to make connections with new people may seem to come out of the blue. Just about everyone would know she works at Flourish and Blotts as a clerk. No one other than Romilda and her clients know she works for Quickpulse on the side.

Potential plots:
Clients or connections to clients
Creating random unorganized games to try to fit in
Someone finding out her side job
A guy who's willing to deal with her awkward side

So, hit me up with your ideas and if you think you can fill any of mine.

Christie
