Following Fran's start, I'd like to welcome everyone and introduce myself to you all, and clearly another mod post is the way to go about that :)
I'm Tara, I'm British (meaning I'm in GMT) and I'm currently finishing up my second year Uni exams for summer. This is the first game I've run on IJ, and I'm happy to admit that without Fran's amazing arty/html-y skills this would not look half as awesome.
I'm going to be playing the lovely Stephen Cornfoot, and the slightly neurotic but otherwise well-meaning Hestia Jones.
Stephen's a slightly typical pureblood, though he's not completely caught up in the pureblood values. However, he doesn't mind spending some of the family money! He was a Ravenclaw, and is typically bookish, and currently works as a Healer at St Mungo's.
Hestia works in the ministry, and is very over-organized, slightly busybody-ish, but very loyal and well-meaning. She was in Gryffindor, and would be a little older than trio-age, but chances are anyone at the ministry, especially those in DMLE would know her!
Obviously, the game will be starting soon, and I'm really looking forward to getting going and playing with you all! If you have any questions, either Fran or I are usually on AIM, you can easily grab me on Heyxtara, or email me at Heyxtara@gmail.com. I look forward to plotting/playing with you all!
