HI, NEW FRIENDS! I'm Ali and my CDJ is [info]aeris and has a big ol' about me page there so I'll spare you. I noticed a lot of you guys are on tumblr so I'll go ahead and link mine here.

I have Levi Kramer here, a senior Azurcrest and a Chaser on the Quid team. He was previously in Thunderbird at Ilvermorny, where he also played Chaser, and came to Gooseberry on a sports scholarship his sophomore year.

bio: the tl;dr edition

  • From a Wizarding island that's part of California's channel islands, wayyy off the coast of Los Angeles area. That makes him really suited for outdoor activities, especially swimming and hiking, but he also can't stand Utah's heat because he's used to consistent year-round temperatures of 70-50 degrees. His clothes usually have cooling charms on them because he's a baby.
  • His mom's a magizoologist and his dad's a musician and he's very much interested in both. He just wants to pet animals and play on the dumb instruments he brought with him. He's taking Magizoology and his advanced class is in Music. He also plays the keyboard/piano as well as providing backup vocals in Diego Morales's band.
  • In addition to Quid, his extracurriculars also include LARP and Drama Club. (Detailed a bit more in his additional facts section in his bio.) He's interested in starting an informal Quodpot team because QUODPOT RULES, but he's worried that might interfere with his Quidditch performance if he sustains any injuries from exploding Quods. That miiiight not stop him from doing the thing anyway, though.


    • wanted lines
  • PEOPLE FROM ILVERMORNY, C'MERE. They might've known each other at their old school and he was known as a show-off Chaser for Thunderbird which is why he (maybe unfairly) got the scholarship in the first place. There were other Chasers more talented at scoring goals, but he was a crowd favorite because he pulled stunts to try to make the games more entertaining to watch. To him, it's not really about winning as much as making sure everyone has a good time. Fairly, he's great at his role or else he wouldn't have been considered for a scholarship, but he's no Quidditch prodigy. Quidditch is a mix of sport and entertainment, in his opinion, and nobody would get so invested in a team if they were boring to watch.
  • LARP friends! Let's make storylines for our characters' characters. Levi currently plays a halfling bard named Mister Periwinkle, even though he's 6'3.
  • Tutors? Smart friends? He needs to maintain his grades in order to keep his scholarship and he needs someone to have helped him stay on track through the years. This could have even carried over from Ilvermorny, if they attended. Good on these now! Thank you!! ♥
  • PARTY PALS!!! People in any house he throws down with.
  • Rivals? Friendly rivals? People who will engage in banter with him either for the fun of it or because they're easy for him to bait?
  • A former fling. (Seniors and juniors only, please! He wouldn't have gone for a tiny baby Freshman last year, sorry!) He's had more flings, but they're gonna be handwaved as NPCs. They could've ended on good or bad terms or maybe it just fizzled out to an anti-climatic ending, it doesn't matter~ UNF, filled~
  • Who helped him with his shitty tattoo and these self-made piercings is what I wanna know.
  • FRIENDS, ENEMIES, ALL THE LINES, PLEASE.

    Actual picture from their reunion:


    OKAY, NATE CAN BE THE SMART FRIEND. So Levi lost his tutor his Freshman/Fourth year and then arrived to Gooseberry like "GUESS WHO IT IS??? IT ME."



    also, that means we have TWO TOL/SMOL AESTHETIC FRIENDS.

    fkdlfjfjalksdf honest engine, i had no idea who dan howell was until i was creeping around pbads trying to find a pb to steal. and i saw an icon of him and was like, "damn, does brendon urie still have that stupid hairstyle? wait, which 2007 pop punk band member is that? that picture quality is really good for 2007." but then i clicked and NOPE, IT'S JUST SOME YOUTUBER WITH A 2007 HAIRCUT IN 2016.

    YAY ALI!!! Welcome to the game!

    We've discussed Diego and Levi a little and THEY ARE GOING TO BE FUN. He's fine with Levi tagging along on his senior project with no complaints, and... generally probably lets Levi get away with whatever. He thinks Levi is SO FUN, and they will make BEAUTIFUL MUSIC TOGETHER. He was probably at least present for Levi's amateur body modification, standing in the background looking mortified. SORRY HE TOLD YOU HE THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD IDEA, BUDDY. IT SURE SOUNDED LIKE IT AT THE TIME.

    Reid Wainwright, junior Coppertale chaser, was actually on Levi's team in Ilvermorny! Reid is... awkward and icy, bad with words, extremely deadpan, lazy, easy to embarrass. As a player he's gifted, buuuut not very motivated by winning, and wouldn't have minded Levi's showboating. He might be slightly more inclined to like Levi than he ordinarily would be since they were on a team together. HE'S NEGATIVE AMOUNTS OF FUN AT A PARTY, THOUGH.

    Aaaand Calvin, sophomore Ribbonfin, is a Hogwarts exchange student out of Slytherin. He's whiny and unpleasant and has a bad attitude, but he'd probably be good for bickering/bantering. He's easy to bait but gets mean when banter turns into an argument. He's currently avoiding Philippa or he'd be in there acting snippy on behalf of his floppy fish house.

    I love how they've already lost 15 points for their house and it's only the second day. IS IT POSSIBLE FOR HOUSE POINTS TO FALL INTO THE NEGATIVES? LET'S FIND OUT.

    Levi honestly doesn't mind a stick-in-the-mud and gets that some people don't like parties, but he's still going to invite him to them anyway to make him feel included and just in case he changes his mind. He's actually pretty perceptive toward other people's feelings, but the catch is that some of the time he just doesn't care so he'll tread all over them. But if he considered Reid any sort of friend, and he probably would since they were teammates, he'd just be like, "It's okay, you do you, buddy" toward 110% of the weird anti-social things he does. Since they've known each other for years, Levi gets what Reid's about and probably wouldn't hassle him about it outside of playful teasing.

    MMM, HE'S GONNA LOVE PICKIN FIGHTS WITH CALVIN. Once Levi sees how easily Calvin takes that first bite of bait, he's gonna realize he's found a goldmine. I CAN'T WAIT.

    Allliiii! 'tis Sara.

    You replied to Gabi's intro so I'll slide on by that.

    This is Regan Hobbs, aka Ree. She's a sophomore Azurcrest, beater, prefect, artistgirl. She was ALSO Thunderbird in a previous life, so basically she and Levi totally, totally know each other. She's outgoing as hell, unflaggingly honest, has tattoos and technicolor hair and is pouting that he wouldn't have a fling with a freshman last year, JERK. FRIENDS THO.

    I also have Isaiah Covington [info]icovington who is a fellow senior in Ribbonfin. He's a (classical) music enthusiast and the student accompanist to the choir. Otherwise he is VERY introverted and people make him feel weird so. He's basically just the silent kid from the big-name family. IDK IDK. Levi probably scares him, but then most Azurcrests do. Then again he's friendly with Diego so IDK I SAY AGAIN IDK.

    HEY SARA~~ This is basically knockoff teenage Bilius, whom you're familiar with from Renn.

    Levi will think Regan is cool af, and he's jealous of her professional looking tattoos like, "WHY DOES A FIFTEEN YEAR OLD BABY HAVE BETTER TATTOOS THAN ME?" points @ his shitty heart-ish-shaped tattoo.

    He will looooooove her though. They seem perfectly compatible. FRIENDS, DEFINITELY.

    LMAO DIEGO AND LEVI WERE sort of? TALKING ABOUT ISAIAH HERE. So I'm sorry in advance.

    Levi is an accompanist for the drama club, so their paths might've crossed if the two clubs did any production collabs-- probably for the holidays, because that's what my schools always did. They're also taking Music as their advanced study this year. We can just see how they interact in-game if you're not sure?

    Hi Ali! I'm Heather and I have Tabitha Ogletree and Dominic Tremblay. Dom is the year below and a different house, but he shares a dorm with two of the Coppertale team so he'll know of him. Tabitha is the same year and was in Pukwudgie! She's all about arts and dance/cheer though so I'm afraid she couldn't tutor. She'd have adored him but then there's the awkward Diego thing XD

    2016-09-02 11:18 pm UTC (link)
    I thiiiink Dom and Levi might actually get along on the social activism front because SURPRISE, for all his fucking around, Levi actually cares a lot about social injustice because of his own experiences and observations. HOWEVER he's pretty much Chaotic Good, with emphasis on the chaotic part, and even though he's mostly harmless on his own, he can be a real shitass when egged on and fed enough attention and that might be frustrating for a more straight-laced student? idkidk

    Levi would've adored her, too, and still adores her and thought her dating Diego was the BEST THING EVER. -- And then The Diego Thing™ happened and now he's just like



    And it's probably just festered over the summer and he hasn't talked to either of them about The Diego Thing™ and he's probably gonna be chummy af toward both of them and try to play that dangerous game of neutrality that never works out in the end.

    if levi is involved w diego's band (i think i saw that in the app?) they have a connection through that. also quidditchhhh they are both chasers ♥ if he needed help with potions mayyybe during band practice or something, also totally down. would've helped him brew sanitation or anti-pain stuff for his piercings if asked. :u maybe even stuck a needle in cos she's Stone Cold Calm whaat

    Yes! They're both in his band and Levi plays the keyboard (and also the theremin if it's requested, but the piano/keyboard is more suited for their genre.) He totally would've needed help with potions his Sophomore year if she was willing, but he was like NOPE and opted out of it for his Junior and Senior year. Maybe that's how they met and got to know each other? Potions class?

    ALSO, YEAH, HE WOULD'VE ASKED FOR A POTION. Especially when his tattoo turned nasty. She probably, quite literally, saved his skin.

    Hi Ali, I'm Manx! I just have Ursula de Luca here and she is split between thinking Levi is far too childish and thinking he is a great source of entertainment with all the baiting (bring out the popcorn!). She's a year behind him and in Ribbonfin so they wouldn't have much day-to-day interaction, BUT, she is joining LARP this year. So she can have everyone call her a princess. Yes, she's terrible.

    Hey Ali! I'm Madeline and I've got two here:

    First there's this girl Sylla, who is a year below and in Ebonhide and creepy little intense overachiever who likes death and forbidden magic and morbid fairy tales on loan from Hogwarts. Probably not much there, but she will watch Levi just in case she sees him start another fight. She likes watching boys beat eachother up, okay, don't even question it~ basically she's if Guillermo Del Toro directed a Disney princess movie. That's basically all I should say to keep the rambling at a minimum.

    And then Holden Bright, over at [info]blinkah, junior Ribbonfin and the team seeker, rumor is he's only here because a professional scout pays off all the teachers, since that's apparently his only talent. He tries to avoid drama and conflict but always gets sucked into it because he's just such an impressionable doormat of a jock. Please torment him into being involved in shit. Please. He'd try to avoid the loud kids, but his life is a case of wrong place/wrong time.

    hello!! i am kas! and i have kurt wolfhart, ribbonfin junior. he was also at ilvermorny, but there he was a pukwudgie.

    he's a chronically shy guy with a stutter and a history of wanting to disappear, who is now TRYING HARD TO BE A MORE OBVIOUS PERSON. they'll know each other from drama bc it is kurt's Jam. he's really just here to do drama and hang out with the horses, and he wouldn't be much help for tutoring, esp. since levi is a year above. do you think they'd know one another much? THE PLOTS ARE AN OPEN VESSEL OR SOMETHING. I DON'T KNOW WHAT WORDS MEAN RN.

    HELLO ALI :))) I am so late to these things, as usual. I'm Marin, and I've never played with you before but I AM EXCITED FOR IT.

    Um, so despite Levi's most recent run-in with Ravi, I think they could be friends-ish? Or in any case, Ravi really wants to be friends with him, since they're both LARPers, but if Levi's gonna be an ass, then prefect's gotta prefect. Ravi is relatively easygoing—he gives lots of chances and is very forgiving, but that won't mean much when Levi doesn't know when to stop, lol. Anyway, friends-ish miiiight work because Ravi is a THOUSAND TIMES MORE FUN in LARP than he is outside of it. Like when he's not playing Lawful Good, he's probably completely down with Mister Periwinkle's bardic shenanigans, but then he takes off the elf ears and becomes the guy who'll scold Levi and dock points.

    (Also btw I am actually planning to arrange stuff for the kids in LARP, I've just been caught up in game launch plot and mod things, ahhhh. D: So HOPEFULLY we can all talk about campaigns and characters soon, but this year, Ravi's gonna play against type and go for an elven rogue/thief/conman kind of guy, so maybe he and Mister Periwinkle can get into some shit together.)

    GOD I always write too much. Quick notes on the rest of them: Mina, Ebonhide senior, total uptight academic overachiever who hates Azurcrest types, and also she hates her stepbrother Diego, so that's extra hate for anyone associated with him. Levi can diaf and she loathes his presence in Drama Club.

    Sylvester is a RIVAL CHASER and an alpha male douchebag who likes to party. Sy is kinda easy to bait because he's got a temper and enough muscles to not give a shit about Levi's extra two inches, so IF YOU WANT TO FIGHT, Sy will make it as ugly as you want. On the other hand, Levi's a shitty person and Sy likes shitty people, so it might just be... Is today a day Sy thinks Levi is funny, or is today a day Sy thinks Levi needs to get punched in the face? idk flip a coin

    So I feel so late to this but I'm too lazy to go back and read over what's already been discussed.

    So it's roz from renn and I loved you from afar

    I have Chris who is in coppertail and the beater for that team. He's a super smol baby faced spitfire. I think they should be friends which would be hilarious because Chris is usually grumpy, but I had a thought. They're both seniors. They should have had a fling. Which could have gone any number of ways. Chris is great with casual but he also has this cat that would prolly love levi. Jsyk.

    Chris also shares charms and history of magic, so he could help Levi out in the whole tutor aspect of that shit now? Or still have a fling? Idk. I just got off work. But I want things.

    Irene went to Ilvermorny (she was a Horned Serpent), and is in drama club and LARP. She'd have mixed feelings about Levi. Sometimes she'd find him hilarious, but other times, she'd think he's too obnoxious. She might get along with him for the most part, but probably not exactly friends?

    Hi, I'm Chele with Iris Shacklebolt!

    I think these two could be friendly, Iris wants to be a Magizoologist, so she's taking Magizoology this year! She's also new this year, coming from England, and is the daughter of Kingsley Shacklebolt, current Minister of Magic!

    She's a bit guarded, takes her a while to warm up to people, so she's careful about how much personal information she gives out. She can be a steamroller, she's passionate about her interests. She can be polite/friendly, just takes her time to warm up to people. She also prefers a small close group of friends compared to being friends with everyone.

    Hi Ali, I'm Josie! Sorry this reply is so late, I'm only just getting around to catching up on posts (and there are SO MANY to catch up on omg). Anyway, I have two characters here:

    Pippa Nightingale, Ribbonfin sophomore, new to Gooseberry from Hogwarts. She and Levi have already interacted a little bit in her journal where she asked him not to be so meeeeeean (lol) so somehow I don't see these two being BFFs, how strange.

    BUT. My other girl, Henrietta Gray ([info]unregrettable) is an Azurcrest senior and WHAT A COINCIDENCE she just happens to be Quidditch captain too! HI LEVI. What are your thoughts on these two?? Het won't mind him not being a Quidditch prodigy as long as he prioritises Quidditch pretty highly, and I think she definitely enjoyed his stunts in previous years. (Maybe this will change now she's more invested in winning? Idk!) Het's sister Theo was captain for the last two years so Het will joke that hopefully Levi should be used to taking orders from a Captain Gray. But ahhh these two are definitely friends y/y??
