GREETS. It's Jenny (Xavier) here with my number two (lol) and Calvin's onii-chan, DAMON EVERCREECH. Damon will be arriving at Gooseberry on Sunday and getting sorted that night, then starting class on Monday. I am very excited that his arrival will apparently be leading to the first annual Gooseberry Hunger Games? And also cannibalism?????

Dimi's concept is "Typical Gryffindor with something to prove walks line between hero and villain." His classes are Charms, Herbology, History of Magic, Outdoor Education, Potions, Aesthetic Magic, Magizoology, Wizard Lit. He's going to be trying out all the clubs for a while, but will probably wind up sticking with Outdoor Exploration, Archery, Duelling & Fencing and Drama.

Dimi is charming, confident, artistic, outgoing and a complete shitter. He is a bully-of-bullies. A kid with a superhero complex teetering on the edge of super villain. He will be white knighting all over campus when he isn't out taking photos. For the previous six years at Hogwarts, Dimi was extremely popular within his house, well liked and well known for sticking up for kids who were getting picked on. If you were a bully or a victim at Hogwarts in the last 6 years, you probably had a run in with Dimi Evercreech.

So, why did Dimi leave Hogwarts so near the end of his secondary school career? GOOD QUESTION! It's because this child is a mess. He'd actually applied to the Gooseberry transfer program almost every year since he was first eligible. He was passed over each time because he was a troublemaker with average grades who didn't bring much to the table outside of an excess of personality. At the end of Dimi's sixth year, his core friend group imploded on itself very publicly and dramatically. On the one hand, this meant when he came back for his seventh year he mostly hid in the library and studied, so his grades got better. On the other, he spiraled into a depression and didn't really have a social outlet. So the Head of Gryffindor recommended him when a spot opened at Gooseberry and he accepted because he needed to GTFO.

Dimi is here to make friends, have fun and ~~burn the Coppertale senior boys cabin to ash and cinders~~ hopefully get steered away from becoming Darth Vader.

omg thank you!! That really means a lot. :]

And oh man, Dimi is going to make a GREAT FIRST IMPRESSION AT THIS SCHOOL ISN'T HE. Stoker fight notwithstanding, Dimi will find Roxie terribly interesting and will want to hear all about what it's like growing up as a carnival performer. I'm betting they'd get along well, in general, or at least Dimi would like Roxie a lot.

Dimi will do his best to maintain a geographic high ground in addition to his perceived moral high ground.

To be fair, Roxanne would prefer it if neither of you punched each other in the face. We are equally disappointed in the both of you. Contrary to Coppertale belief, punching each other in the face is not how you make friends. Maybe. She thinks? Whatever. Just don't get each other suspended. (But, yes! I do think they'd get along just fine otherwise. And that socking her captain isn't something that automatically nixes friendship potential!)

Yes. Be observant! Make sure that your mountains are, in fact, actual mountains and not volcanoes in disguise!
