HI EVERYONE! My name is Aleena and this is my first new game in four years, so please be gentle with me. Some of you may remember me from Breaking Ties, where I played Lottie Burke ([info]alottohandle) or way, way back at Hexenacht (sp??) , where I played Delilah Savage [info]nalingi_yo). I'm 26 years old and I'm currently working toward my Masters in Education, so I'm on my computer all day every day during the week. The weekends, I work at a restaurant so I am slightly less available. I live in Alaska, so my timezone is a little weird, but we'll work with it!

I bring to you.... CRESSIDA QUAYLE! She goes by Cricket, but will answer to most anything. She is here to join the ranks of hardworking, ginger, Ebonhide ladies. She isn't the smartest cookie, but she might fool you into thinking she is with her scarily organized planner and two-month long study schedule. She enjoys hosting events (NOT Azurecrest style drinking parties - ugh red cups!) and has probably made your character some sort of craft at some point.

Personality wise, Cricket comes across as very sweet. She has a warm energy and tends to remember a lot about other people. I don't want to overreach, but if your character has known her for awhile, she probably knows your character's birthday, hobbies, interests, hometown, class schedule, and the names of all their immediate family members, etc. She spends a lot of her time going out of her way to help people. BUT! She hates it! She is not nice. She is dying inside. She is very tired and she doesn't want to tutor you, but she will absolutely volunteer anyway. Deep down, she is snarky and petty, but is terrified of other people knowing that about her.



1. She is an American pureblood from Olympus, Tennessee. She has a twangy Southern accent.
2. Her father is a MACUSA rep from Tennessee (lots of talk of him being future Prez) and her mother is magical Martha Stewart, so her last name is probably familiar to most of your characters.
3. Her little brother is Ulysses! And she loves him dearly, so don't you dare cross him!
4. She was newly appointed prefect of the Ebonhide Senior Girls, when Maggie was promoted to Head Girl.
5. She is in Outdoor Exploration, Event Committee, and Equestrian Club.
6. She cries A LOT, but it is her deepest, darkest secret and tries to cry privately.
7. She would very much like to be the next President of the Magical United States.
8. Was a Horned Serpent at Ilvermorny before transferring to Gooseberry her freshman year.





1. A few very, very close friends that she allows to see her true mean girl side.
2. A wide circle of friends that she is very sweet around!
3. A frenemy that has no idea that Cricket actually can't stand them.
4. Past romantic interests. She isn't the type of girl who will meet up behind the stables to make-out, but longer term messy casual dating where intentions aren't clear, but FEELINGS WERE HURT are more her thing.



I WAS JUST TOO EXCITED TO START, SO I KNOW I MISSED THINGS!

HELLO I AM LATE but intro posts are hard on iphone :( But hello! I'm Madeline and I have three here!

First up there's Holden Bright - [info]blinkah, Ribbonfin Junior and Quidditch team seeker. From South Boston, the shyest jock who ever jocked, hates attention and being the center of the spotlight, but doesn't realize that being a Seeker is the ultimate paradox of that. He's a doormat, the poor thing. Easily pulled right out of his comfort zone.

Sybilla Borgin [info]sibyls, Ebonhide Junior and Slytherin Hogwarts exchange student, super obsessed with dueling and fencing and taking Animagus Studies. Cute English politeness hides a rather sinister and morbid bent, which isn't that strange considering her parents are THE Borgin & Burke, so she's basically what would happen if Guillermo Del Toro created a Disney princess.

And this kid, Wes Carpenter! Coppertale Senior, not-so-good Catholic boy from the swamps of Louisiana, Traiteur in the making and Potions whizkid. Communicates solely in drawls and winks and flirts, notorious attention whore, never learned that pride comes before the fall because it feels too good being him.

HI MADELINE! Writing on your phone is the worst, I sympathize :(

Holden: Cricket burrows into everybody's business and likes to think she is friends with everyone, so she will probably try to be social with Holden. And she'll try not to take it personally if he shrugs her off.

Sybilla: So cute! Cricket would be very charmed and intrigued by her. Cricket is writing a thesis for her senior project on the causes and effects of the First & Second Wizarding Wars in Britain, so she'll probably have some questions for Sybilla about Dark Magic culture and what not.

Wes: What a bundle of trouble! Seems like they already have a flirtatious energy with each other. Cricket is clearly charmed by him, as much as she hates to admit it. Should they have some sort of past?

Yessss please do, Holden is way too polite to shrug people off because he's a rampant people pleaser, just in a very "FINE FINE OKAY I'LL DO IT" sort of way, just to avoid more drama. He needs socializing badly.

Ooooooooh yes she'll get her enigmatic~ on, she loves that.

His relationship style is pretty much the exact opposite of hers, he goes casual hookups and no feelings hurt "we still friends ain't we baby?" which could account for why they haven't gotten together yet? BUT HE DOESN'T RULE IT OUT JUST YET, senior year isn't over! Yeah he probably sees her as uncharted territory :P And he definitely calls her "Criquet" because he knows just how charming his voice sounds when he turns the Cajun up to 11

Will do! Cricket can find any excuse socialize. Small, drama free atmospheres are her thing.

Works for me!! I imagine her fancying that each little flirtation is building toward something and then she turns around and sees him using the same lines on someone else, so she's like, "YOU'RE BACK TO SQUARE ONE, CARPENTER!"
