Entry tags:! introduction, player: aleena

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!

A Brit! Now you can suffer through being in an American based HP game, like we all struggled through pretending to be British. Haha

Cricket will admire Joanna's drive and maybe accidentally be a little condescending in the way rich people are just totally unaware of what life without excess is like. Generally, I think they'll get along though!

Will needs no links. Will popped up on Cricket's radar just because he is so dang cute and now she is obsessed with him.

Cricket probably has a mild crush on Dominic and maybe they have flirted a little in the past. But it's weird now cuz he is making out with Ree and Ree is Cricket's cousin?

CRICKET IS SO TEAM TABITHA!! I definitely think they would have known each other growing up and then they went to Ilvermorny together too, so I they should be life long friends!

I played in an NYC Aurors game about seven years ago, which should indicate to you why one of my characters is Canadian (from a region I've lived in), one is from a region important to the only period of US history that I know a lot about and another is from the only US state I've actually been to XD

Joanna would probs be noticeably twitchy if she was condescended to, but she'd forgive her because that's what you do to older kids who don't mean it.

Lol, Will in my head is like 'bwuh?'

Dom would definitely have flirted, because that's what he does XD

YAAAAAAAASS another person for her Team plus list of besties <3

Work with what you know! That's why all my characters in HP games lived in the same area of London that I studied abroad in haha

Twitch away! Cricket needs to check her privilege.

It's the glasses, Will! So cute!

She might throw a little shade at Dom now, because she doesn't like anyone else getting attention. But I don't know yet, we'll see where it goes.

Tabitha + Cricket + Maggie = 3 old money bitches that you do not want to mess with.

Ha ha, as a born and bred Northerner who works in London that amuses me quite a lot ;)

Joanna is still learning how to do that tactfully, bless her.

(He does not understand his own appeal yet. He'll get there!)

Dom just yawned. I think this means he doesn't care. Possibly?

Tabitha is no mean girl but she's determined in her own way, so it could be interesting! Especially as a lot of the senior Ribbonfins aren't taking sides in the Anuhea and Diego thing. She seems to have more allies in Ebonhide and Coppertale XD

And then I always made their family home in Devon? I don't know why!!

That's okay, Tabitha! Cricket will be mean on your behalf :) Though not to Anuhea, just Diego.
