    HEY CUTIES, Gina here with another one. You can't make me stop. This handsome man here is Dean Thomas!
    25 years old, former Gryffindor, and currently working as a badass hitwizard. Dean grew up not knowing that his father was a Wizard, making him believe he was actually a muggleborn. He has 4 younger siblings and 1 on the way. He considers his stepfather to be his Dad and he adopted him as well. He is currently dating Leanne Jorkins and thinks she's just great (especially when she brings him cupcakes.) As far as personailty goes, Dean is just a well-rounded, respectful, and nice guy. He doesn't judge quickly and he likes meeting strange and different people. Check out his bio here.
    Any type of interaction for him is welcomed. He's going to need lots of friends, perhaps a few exes, and I don't know maybe people will hate him but he's honestly pretty cool so you just try to do that -- I guess he might not get on well with typical douchey Slytherins. Bring it.

    BONJOUR, Gina here with another babe. Here is Gabrielle Delacour.
    Gabi (not Gabbie or Gabby, thank you very much) is the 20 year old part-veela little sister of Fleur. She's a model, mostly because she doesn't like to do much real work at all and is about to move to London for her career since Witch Weekly is headquartered in Diagon Alley. Mostly, Gabrielle is a brat. She's selfish and speaks her mind. Though, she gets along with most men because she tends to flirt and be nice to them, but doesn't hold very high regard for women (their dad sort of raised them that way). She will talk to anyone, but she says exactly what she is thinking, which can get her into trouble. Check out her bio here.
    Any type of interaction for her is welcomed. I realize that many of the female characters in game aren't going to be crazy about her but I'm all about snarky threads and interaction anyway! Friends are welcome if they can handle how vapid she is! Otherwise she might know several characters through Fleur, because she's flirted with them, and so forth!

    Hi bbs! Gina here (Hannah Abbott, Astoria Greengrass, and Augustus Pye) bringing you a new lady! Also, I know I disappeared for a little bit there, so if you wanted anything with my kids please, please let me know! Anyways:
    Ginny is 24 years old and currently acting as the Seeker to the Holyhead Harpies. However, she's been playing less and less because she's been somewhat disinterested in her Quidditch career and is looking to possibly do something new. She lives in her own flat right near the Quaffle and frequents there often. Right now, Ginny isn't dating anyone and has seen a few people but it was really nothing serious as she was very focused on her career until recently.

    Personality wise, she's the same old Ginny. Feisty, strong, and likes to have a little fun now and again. Her temper still runs pretty hot but only when there is probable cause. Since Hogwarts, she's grown much more comfortable in her own skin and enjoys the privacy that having her own flat has to offer.
    You can read more about her in her bio! Right now, I'm looking for anything with her -- so maybe friends from Hogwarts or people she's made friends with since. I'm not opposed to her having a roommate if anyone wanted to do something like that, she'd be okay living with a male or a female. Past relationships and enemies welcomed as well! She likes to explore new things and meet new people and of course, she's still heavily involved with her family!

    Intro Times Three!
    I'm being lazy and introducing my three new kids in one fell swoop/post.

    This journal belongs to Tamsin Applebee. She's a happy, hopeful, awesome former Hufflepuff who wants all the friends. She plays Quidditch professionally (for the Appleby Arrows, who else?), but did not quite make the cut for the national team. She's good, but she's no Viktor Krum, okay? She is a registered Animagus (a hawk), and lives in Lincolnshire. Tamsin is fun and sweet and open-minded. Since we're doing a wanted character post soon, I'll go ahead and toss out that Tamsin wants all her former Huff Quidditch buddies (Malcolm Preece, Herbert Fleet, Heidi Macavoy, Maxine O'Flaherty, Anthony Rickett, and Michael McManus, we are looking at any of you!). She may even have had a significant crush on one of the boys over the years, if anyone is looking for a slightly-to-very shippy line.

    Face #2 is Kellan Bundy, played by Tom Hardy. He's a former Slytherin who believed he was a muggleborn for quite a bit of his life (but in reality/knows now he is a halfblood). He had a really crappy childhood and ended up adopted by an elderly wizarding couple as a teenager. Verity Bundy is his second or third cousin who he was quite surprised to find he had when she came to Hogwarts a few years after he started. Kellan doesn't have a lot of friends, but he's trying, he really is. He's a Hit Wizard for the Ministry (having returned to to the job after the war, during which he hid out in Germany). I doubt many of his housemates wanted much to do with him because of his supposed blood status, but there were likely a few that he confided in and so forth. He will be incredibly awkward around any of the opposite sex who try to flirt with him, just fyi. :D

    Face #3 is probably one of the most interesting characters I've ever attempted, largely because of his background and his profession. He is Professor Saul Croaker, Unspeakable and bookworm extraordinaire. Saul is 45, a former Ravenclaw, and works in the Time Room, within the Department of Mysteries. Only problem is: no one knows that except the people who are in the DoM with him! He likely won't be the most active person in the community, but he is a fine source of plots and sage advice. His history is a bit sordid, which is awesome because DRAMA. Anyway, wanted connections: a younger intern (late teens/early 20s, preferably male and open to completely inappropriate interaction with his "boss" who is also VERY GOOD at keeping secrets - for the job, obviously)! More geezers like himself! Second cousin Stewart Ackerley for fun family times!

    New faces!
    Hi all! Diana here, at the helm of the modly journal for a moment or two. Sorry to do this to you again so soon, but I'm bringing in three kids today (fun!). They'll likely be my last until someone bats their eyelashes at me a little and asks nicely for one more.

    Run the button, if you please, to add Saul Croaker, Kellan Bundy, and Tamsin Applebee:

    Hello! Lisa here with her last one. For real.

    Fleur is a super lonely, stay-at-home mom. She LOVES her children. She and Bill have two together. Victoire, who turns 5 in May and Louis who is almost a year old. She's a little bit of a sad individual as her marriage is failing and she doesn't know how to fix that. She and Bill barely speak to one another when he's home. Her time is mostly filled with her beautiful children, who she talks about all the time. She's, of course, absolutely stunning but has quieted down her look what with handprints all over her all the time.

    Fleur could use some friends! She doesn't know where her marriage is going. Her english is still pretty bad but she DOES try. She's just not very good at languages. She's very family oriented and missing her sister and best friend and parents.

    SO anyone connected to France! BE HER FRIEND! <3 <3 <3

    As always, you can reach my on Dumbledoresgirl for aim and gmail!

    So! I'm not sure what my availability will be like the next few days as I'm having surgery. So, if I'm slow to tag, I'm probably on drugs. Also, if I do tag and it makes no sense? I'm using the drug excuse!

    Anyway! Just giving y'all a heads up!

    <3 <3

    george
    Hey guys. So, George. He's may not be the exact same George you all know and love ... a war and losing your twin kind of changes a bloke. Still loves a laugh and he'll slip something into your drink just to see what the results are. (nothing too harmful, of course). He is a bit more of a workaholic, slipping into the "EVIL LABORATORY" to work when he's not feeling quite up to dealing with the public.

    That being said ... he has a wide variety of connections from friends to family to other business owners in Diagon. If you've mentioned a connection in the make-up of your own character, let me know so I can incorporate it. If not ... well, I'll just stick to anything cannon their might be.

    Thanks ♥

    World Cup Stuff!
    1. I have created a schedule. The World Cup will be on May 3rd, 2006. The rest of the schedule, along with all winners except for the final match, can be found here.

    2. The regular Quidditch season will continue until the start of the World Cup. It will then be stopped as soon as the Qualifying matches begin. The regular Quidditch season will resume on May 17th and go until the end of August. Playoffs for that will commence in September.

    3. There will be a number of galas, parties, balls, dinners, cocktail parties, etc during the World Cup season. The first will be the Opening Gala on February 15th.

    4. Tickets go on sale for all Cup matches on January 22nd. Be careful... they are going fast.

    It's the Irishman you all know and love, all grown up. He's been out of town for the last two years and is returning as the overseer of the Three Broomsticks, under Rosmerta's watchful eye. He lives above the pub and is eager to get out and see all his old chums. In his spare time, he's either out riding his motorcycle (that he and his dad rebuilt while reconnecting) or brewing craft beers (he's given up on turning water into rum at long last). Before he left town, he had a rather messy break-up with one Susan Bones, ending their three-year relationship pretty spectacularly. He hasn't changed much otherwise. He still smiles a lot, talks too loudly, and loves a good time. Seamus and I are up for any and all shenanigans.

    Hullo E'rrybody.
    Heyyyy guys! Gina here. So sorry for disappearing on you all, I just graduated and then I moved at home so it got kinda busy up until Christmas and then the holidays hit me. But now that things are settled down, I'd like to first of all say WELCOME EVERYONE NEW AND NEW CHARACTERS! I also have Hannah Abbott and if I've missed you, feel free to shoot me a line and mention that you might want something with her. Otherwise, I'm introducing you to the one and only Astoria Greengrass:
    Astoria Demetria Greengrass is a former Slytherin graduated in 2001. She's a pureblood and best friends with Emma Dobbs. Despite being a pureblood, she doesn't exactly act like one and often takes the company of those who her family and peers might not find to be exactly acceptable. Astoria very much speaks her mind and does everything she can to rebel against what she believes other's want her to be. She can be fun, but is also very cynical and has no problem speaking her mind. She often enjoys saying things just for their shock value and can be pretty inappropriate when she wants to be.

    Instead of becoming a pureblood housewife right after graduation like her mother would have liked, Astoria is a photographer for the Daily Prophet. She also does free lance work though, so she travels a lot. She lives in a flat in Diagon Alley and can often be found partying and making a scene of herself. She lives life very passionately, so she runs very hot and cold. I imagine she could like some characters at one moment and hate them at others, so there is a lot of room for some interesting relationships. While she would know many of the Slytherins, she might also be inclined to make friends with people who are nothing like her.
    More information can be found in her profile or you can find me at rawrzinyoface on aim! I'll take anything for her: friends, former friends, former lovers, cousins if you're interested, enemies, rivals, anything!!

    So. Hi there. I'm Diana, and I'm fairly certain I've been in a game with some of you (maybe more than one since 2009, who knows?). I'm pretty much always available for plot and play these days (in the afternoons/evenings/weekends at least) because I have no life. XD I'm also easily persuaded to create ALL THE CHARACTERS, just fyi. Anyway, you're probably more interested in the fellow I'll be introducing. His name's Nick, he's French, and he's a Quidditch player. His father's the ambassador from the French Ministry of Magic, so they're both staying in Diagon Alley for a while (in a sharply appointed set of apartments near Gringotts). Nick will be out and about exploring the countryside while his father schmoozes. He might even be signing on for a trial with a local Quidditch team.

    As his journal name suggests, Nick is very straight-laced, largely by paternal mandate. He lives his life in the public eye and doesn't get out (on his own) much. A lot of the common folk think the whole Beauchene family is a bunch of spoiled, arrogant prigs. Nick and his siblings (Theo and Colette, who are staying in France for the time being) are very much the opposite, though. He's unfailingly kind and polite, if slow to trust and occasionally shy. Though most in society refer to him as Nicholas, he prefers Nick and prefers to remain as inconspicuous as he can.

    I'm on AIM as fadingxfires.

    Happy writing!

    Hello, people!

    It is I, Myriam. It is also he, Percy. I'm all new here, and I know it's been many days and many nights since we were added to the friend button, but I'm here! Now. A bit late. Sorry for the delay. To be honest, I was having trouble giving Percy a face and I couldn't do any of the rest of the intro-ing and app-writing without that face, so now that I have one, I can start writing and playing!

    He's 29 at this point, working at the Ministry of Magic. He has jumped from department to department a few times since the war, and is now working for the International Magical Office of Law, which suits him nicely. If any other characters own a business, he really enjoys bookkeeping and will do it for you, gladly. There's just something about numbers all in a row that he finds very soothing. He's trying very hard not to be as constantly serious as he once was; after what happened with Fred… He tries to take a joke, to honour his brother's memory, but it's not always easy. He's never going to be a social butterfly, but he tries to go out and do something unrelated to work at least once a week, sometimes two. That's a work in progress. I'm still trying to figure out what to do about Audrey. If anyone has an opinion on that one, please let me know.

    SO, what have your characters been up to? Has anyone been waiting for a Percy to emerge for story lines, or for any other particular reason? Is there anything you do not want him to do? I don't want to get in anyone's way. Again, please let me know!

    Oh, and I'm ofateaspoon on AIM, or mimsyperson@gmail.com if you prefer email or google talk. You can hit me up any time.

    Thanks! :)

    Hannah Abbott!
    Hi everyone! Gina here, and I believe I have played with several of you in the past, so it's nice to see you again! If we haven't had the pleasure of playing together, it's nice to meet you! I'm super looking forward to getting in the swing of things and back to RP because I've missed it oh so much!
    Anyways, this here is Hannah Abbott. She's a former Hufflepuff and current Waitress/Bartender/Do-Whatever-Oliver-Asks-Employee! Hannah is a halfblood with two younger siblings from her Mum's second marriage, and a dead father. Due to this, she's pretty use to having a lot of responsibility, which can be hard for someone as absent minded as she. The girl gets by though. She's pretty easy going, though also extremely clumsy and a total busy body. She's really chatty and curious and will ask a lot of questions which people can either find to be totally annoying or super endearing. She doesn't mind standing up for herself or stating her opinion. She's pretty naive in general, though. It still takes a lot for her to get mad, so expect her to kill with kindness unless things get too out of hand. Regardless, here she is and I should have her bio up soon!
    Also, my aim is rawrzinyoface and my gmail is the same.

    I will definitely be picking up another character or more -- so if you guys have any suggestions or requests, let me know about that too!

    It's Amber (I've been a slacker, I also have Charlie Weasley, it's a thing).

    Alicia played Quidditch for like four years or so, and got pretty involved with another quidditch player, (maybe Cormac McLaggen,unless someone wants to offer), but she got knocked up and the baby Daddy sort of split during the pregnancy. The baby has her last name, and probably none-to-little contact with the baby daddy. Her son is four now, his name is Thomas.

    She hit some rough patches, and couldn't really get back into Quidditchs demanding schedule as a single mother. Now she manages at Oliver's bar, and her and her son live above it. So yeah.
