Introducing Orsino
Hey everyone, my name is Ren and I'd like to introduce you to Orsino Thruston, 7th year Slytherin and future drummer for the Weird Sisters. Orsino lives music, enjoys the present, thinks he has everything completely together for seventh year, and he's in a band! At the moment, that band is a band composed of Hogwarts students called The Unnamed Band (they had a fight over the name, and settled for a compromise that everyone hates), but before the Yule Ball comes around, he'll have joined the Weird Sisters, which will be pretty weird for him. You can find more about him here.

Anyway, I'm happy to be here, and if anyone wants to make up some backstory with Orsino, I'm completely up for it. Members of his current band, former girlfriends, friends, enemies, ...?

	Hi Ren! I'm Maxi here with Alicia Spinnet. Typically Alicia is anti-Slytherin, but he's not so horrible. He's kind of amusing (in her mind) and she's more likely to be friendly/civil towards him than most Slytherins. The quick part of his personality is something she'd enjoy and may just say random things to see what happens! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	:) At some point he'd probably say random things back, which would lead to an entirely random conversation or craziness! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Hi Ren, I'm Alex and have Kathryn Bundy here a 6th year Slytherin. She's cousin to Zacharias Smith, very artistic and shy and spends a lot of her time reading, drawing/painting in the library/great hall/on the grounds. She's not all that fond of most of her house. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Orsino really and truly thinks they should have made houses based on musical ability, or any sort of ability if they had to, but as it is, they're rather useless...but he's learned better than to say that. And he does sort of appreciate the ambitious side of Slytherin. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kathryn is for this - might get her away from most people she doesn't like (read the entire house nearly). Ambitious is good and really is under appreciated :) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Hi Ren! This is Lari and I believe we played at BNW together. I have Marietta Edgecombe who is two years younger than Orsino and a Ravenclaw, so I'm not sure they would know each other at all! But she does enjoy music, so she will definitely be impressed when he becomes a Weird Sister. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	tothebeatof 2012-08-24 03:24 am UTC (link)
	Yes, we did! I still remember Annie clearly. Orsino, sad to say, is probably going to expect the whole world to be super-impressed, so he'll be happy that someone's fulfilling his expectations. (Reply to this) (Parent)

Hi Ren! I'm Patricia and I'm the mod over here. I have two boys, Cormac McLaggen and Hamish Fraser. He probably won't know Cormac since they're from different houses and years, though Cormac will make sure to make himself known. He'll be annoying and obnoxious, and will be part of that crowd that labels musicians as sissies. Hamish is in sixth year and Orsino might recognize him as the Ravenclaw keeper. We'll have to see how they'll get along in game, but Hamish will be nice.

Hey Ren! My name's Alison and I have two here so far, Barney Dunstan

accio_barney and Demelza 'Mel' Robins. Barney is incredibly energetic, talkative, sweet, and stupid. He will be nice to Orsino because he is literally nice to everyone. He's a 6th year Hufflepuff and is the Hufflepuff keeper in normal years. I imagine they could be friendly, at least as much as people in different houses and years can be.

Mel is my super-opinionated feminist, Gryffindor 5th year. She loves debating and Quidditch and cute boys. I bet she'll have opinions about music as well, you know. Possibly an ex-girlfriend if he'd go for someone two years below? She's pretty and fun but can't hold onto guys for very long because she debates them to death.

	Oh, yes, that would be very cool on the ex-girlfriend front. Orsino just wants to have fun. And a short time of it goes well with Orsino's usual practice! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Awesome :-) I'm thinking a pretty amicable break? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Hi Ren! I'm Becca and this is Stella Fawcett. I've also got another character here, just picked her up, named Amelia Higgs.

Stella... well, Stella is going to just love Orsino. She's very, very musical and very, very interested in cute boys with floppy hair. She's a sixth year Ravenclaw but they're in Choir together and her brother, Cal, is Orsino's roommate.

Amelia is a 5th year Slytherin, so they might know each other from the common room. She probably knows he sneaks out for jam sessions but tucks that away for future use. She's annoyingly perceptive that way.

	Hee! Wanna have Stella be an ex-girlfriend? Orsino needs a bunch... And that sounds sort of like plot in the making :) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	misshiggstoyou 2012-08-24 06:53 pm UTC (link)
	Oooh, maybe! Or maybe they can be friends who hook-up from time to time, haha. Stella wouldn't want things to be awkward and prevent them from talking music! Yes. We'll just have to see if there is anything that Amelia wants from Orsino, won't we? :D (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tothebeatof 2012-08-26 05:29 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, that would work. Provided that Stella explained the whole thing to Orsino carefully, he has a bias toward "girlfriend", despite it tending to be a fleeting thing with all the girls he's been with. (Reply to this) (Parent)

Hey Ren, Im Carrie and I have two here.

Lucy Chambers, sixth year Ravenclaw. Lucy can be a little abrasive without meaning to be, she likes Quidditch more than people and is a little too honest. Its hard to tell if she likes you or not, but she generally does, you just need to ignore the rude. She likes that Orsino has his own thing and will be her brand of friendly.

Jules Dorny,

stagnantly seventh year Slytherin and prefect. Jules is Orsino's roommate, is very closed off and generally hates everything. He likes to read, he likes to smoke, he doesn't like to socialise. He's permanently underwhelmed by everyone. He'll be as friendly as he can be to Orsino.

	Orsino rather appreciates honest, at least sometimes :) Ahh, roommate! I think Orsino would probably annoy Jules, since Orsino is sort of loud. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Hi Ren! This is Katie from BNW :) I play Cho here. They're in different houses and years, but she's socially aware, so she'd know who he is even if he doesn't know her. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	tothebeatof 2012-08-26 05:30 pm UTC (link)
	Hi Katie! :) I think Orsino probably has some idea of who Cho is, though probably it's mostly just the basics, popular, Quidditch, etc. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	daydreaming 2012-08-27 11:39 am UTC (link)
	Hey! I'm Crystal, and I remember you from a few games. Right now I have just one character, Leanne Clearwater. Leanne's a fifth year Ravenclaw. She's introspective and off in her own world half of the time, shy and quiet, and aspires to become a fashion designer. I don't think she'd really be on Orsino's radar at the moment, but she'll probably fangirl his band, so there's that. (Reply to this)
