St. Margaret's: the OOC Community

Hey, y'all.

Yes, it's that time of year. The time of year where Chrissie braces herself the impending departure of Experts by bringing in a new character to ease the pain. This time, the character is EWAN CARLYLE, who is none other than our dear Van Carlyle's half-brother! Whoop. Here are some facts, in case you don't want to dig through his PROFILE:

• He is an INTERMEDIATE in house PEGASUS
• Ewan grew up in SCOTLAND, so yes, he has a very strong Scottish accent and will make liberal use of slang (but I'll provide translations upon request).
• He is almost a year older than Van, but will be an intermediate because his education wasn't all that great growing up.
• Ewan is friendly and outgoing and charming. He's a KELPIE so you know what that means? It means he's pretty and, boy, does he know it.
• Yes, he has a lot of Scottish pride and no, he isn't a fan of Bravehart, but he will joke around about it.
• He gets protective over his family and friends, so he'll be the first one to throw a punch, as you will soon see.
• Ewan is a smoker and likes drinking. In America, he is too young for both, so problems will arise from that. Whoop.

And that's what I got for you. He's brand spankin' new and his intro thread is reserved becase he's Van's bro and they gotta meet somehow . . . right? But other than that, he'll introduce himself on the network and be his loud, friendly self.

( P.S. Here's the family resemblance )

Since there are and have been a lot of siblings and/or distant relations in the school lately, Lucia has proposed to the Editor in Chief of The Oracle that she publish a "relations" article with pictures of the individuals beside their relations.

Ping me if I forget anyone. Off the top of my head:

Clara & Farrowe

Davian & Paxton

John & Leon

Galadari & Gilderoi

Van & Ewan

Kat & Oliver

Sorin & Neculai

She'll approach each of them for a photo op and then publish the entry with a small caption for explanation. And Khush will dig out a pic for each of them from Google, so if you want a say in what picture to use, speak now or forever hold your peace! And speak now if your character would not, for any reason, allow Lucia to take a picture. They'll be excluded from the issue.

I think I might even expand it to include teachers who have siblings, too. It'd be kinda fun for the students to see teacher relatives, and pretty interesting too, considering some of the staff have family that are long dead.

AnyWHO! That's what I'm thinking.
