Hello all! Becca here, and I have TWO new characters to introduce (at least now I've hit the character limit and you'll never have to hear one of these from me again).

This lovely lady is Mademoiselle Elodie Chevalier. Elodie is like... well, some people might say that she is the French Hermione, but I prefer to think of her as the French Rory Gilmore. Her mother was a Pureblood teenager who got pregnant by a Muggleborn and her parents disowned her. And then Elodie's dad left before she was even born. So, it's always been just the two of them and Elodie's mother has worked really to build a successful cafe business in Paris.

Elodie feels like she has something to prove to the people who abandoned her, so she can come off as a liiiiiiiiittle bit type-A. She gets very good marks, plays violin, plays Seeker for the Alouettes, is the Head of Class (7E), and strives to maintain a neat and stylish appearance at all times. She needs friends who can help her relax and not worry about the future all the time! She can be fun, I promise, she just gets a little caught up in things (Carrie, I was thinking she and Sophie particularly might be BFFs??). She really wants to be Champion and will be disappointed when Fleur is picked. Oh, and, also, she began dating Calvin Fawcett over the summer and maaaybe didn't mention that she was coming to Hogwarts (maybe because she has trust/abandonment issues and wanted to test him). More about Elodie is here.

The second intro is for Miss Elena Gregorovitch (caffiendishly), who is basically the polar opposite of Elodie. Elena is the granddaughter of the famous wandmaker. She was raised in Berlin with her family and for most of her life the Muggle quarters of the city were seperated by the Berlin Wall. Elena's very dry, very deadpan, and somewhat apathetic. Her approach to life is usually to do just enough to get by and not a lot more. She's a classic underachiever and an equal-opportunity offender (she's almost definitely going to make fun of you, but she's so deadpan that you might not notice). She's not mean, however, usually, just observant and prone to pointing out how ridiculous all people are. She's really into coffee. Like, really. And her best friend is Yakov. She's a beater for the Red team. Oh! And she's the youngest student on the Durmstrang delegation. Her 17th birthday is TODAY! Halloween! You can read more about her here.

They both need stuff! Friends, enemies, etc. LET'S DO IT.
