Hogwarts: A New Era(OOC, Signups, OPEN)

[Holy Empire of Avalon]

Don't worry mine is weak, shy, kind of a pushover. But I figured not a lot of wizards follow the route of their wand changing them instead of the reverse. Problem is last wand that did that was Voldermort's, and my characters is basically only good for dueling magic...
Sh*t I made Voldermort! Might need to edit that app... <.<

Maybe he can learn from Voldamort's mistakes

Nah, he will probably end up defending a friend from school bullies and accidentally use the killing spell on the bully. That seems to be the most likely route, thus James would fall from noble of heart to something a bit more dark.

Screw it, I am making a new character, because let's admit it, that sounds way cooler than my original intentions.

[Corrian]

You're welcome, he is a pretty cool guy. Yeah you kids now probably listen to just "Dubstep"

Not me. Though there is some Dubstep I still listen to. Liked the genre at one point until I realized it all sounded the same...

Hah

How do you accidentally use one of the forbidden curses?

[Transoxthraxia]

So far I'm gonna have a super happy hyperactive 11-year old and some strange 11-year old. But I want to make a student that ISN'T a first year as well.

Make a fourth year so Tereza has some company.

Hah

How do you accidentally use one of the forbidden curses?

Well, you extend your wand towards the person and you shout the spell such as
"Avada Kedavra!" assuming you aim good and hit them they will die, provided that there actually is not a spell able to block it.

But how do you accidentally shout 'Avada Kedavra!'?

But how do you accidentally shout 'Avada Kedavra!'?

Well you form these sounds with your mouth
Av-ada Kaa-davra

When you say that the spell comes from your wand. Most spells are used by saying the name, though some do require other things also.

You seem to be missing the Accidentally part. I know how spells work, I just wonder how you Accidentally, meaning unintentionally, shout a spell.

Name: Moony Sparks
Age:11
Year: First
House:
Ravenclaw (Not my favorite, but what one I think Mooney would fit best in)
Gryffindor
Hufflepuff
Slytherin
Wand Type: 10 inch, Rainbow Eucalyptus wood, Unicorn hair core.
Pet(Name, Type, Description): Name: Shadowdancer. Type: Cat. Description:

Quidditch Position(Team, Position):
Blood-status: Half-blood (Muggle mother, wizard father.)
Family: Malcolm Sparks (Father), Christina Sparks (Mother), Jet Sparks (Half brother)
Personality: Sort of like a cross between Luna and Hermione. She is a bit odd, a bit different. She loves books, and will spend a good portion of her time reading.
Appearance:

History: Moony's mom married Jet's dad when he was just four, and that was when she was born. Like her brother, she was sent to Muggle schools as she grew up, but unlike him, she was bullied less because she didn't stand out as much. She spent most of her time studying and reading books, or just staring off in to space. She was sad when Jet went off to Hogwarts, but she knew that one day she would be joining him. And now that day has come.
Interests: Books, study, animals.
Strengths: Knowledgable about all types of magic (From reading, not from actually knowing the spells), self-assured.
Weaknesses: Her love for her half-brother could be considered a 'weakness' to some people. She's not very good at potions. Can be a bit oblivious to things sometimes.

Name: Jet Sparks
Age: 15
Year: 5
House:
Slytherin (Preferred, because I want him to be a Slytherin that's not as mean as most of the others, but he does have a sort of dark side.)
Gryffindor
Hufflepuff
Ravenclaw
Wand Type: 13 inch, Ebony wood, whomping willow ash core.

Family: Malcolm Sparks (Father), Lillian Ray-Sparks (Mother-Devorced from family), Christina Sparks(Step-mother), Moony Sparks (Half-sister).
Personality: Jet is very protective of his friends, and particularly his sister. He is a loyal friend, and has a fierce temper. He's also a bit mischievous, and likes getting up to no good. As well as that, he can be a bit reckless. He also has no tolerance for bullies. But he does have a dark side that he is currently unaware of.
Appearance:

History: Jet has always been different, and not just because of being a pure-blood wizard. He was born with white hair and red eyes. This caused him some problems with bullies at school. Despite being a pure-blood, his parents sent him to muggle schools, so that he could learn about muggles even before going to wizard school. And so, he got bullied a lot for being different. After a while, though, the bullies learned to leave him alone, because he learned to stand up for himself, and those around him, and he was a force to be reckoned with when he did, even without magic. When he was 3, his mom and dad got devorced, which he was fine with because he mom was kind of a jerk, and not long later, his father re-married, and he had a little sister. He got his Hogwarts letter at the age of 11, and excitedly went off to school, though he was sad to leave his younger sister. Now, a few years later, he's known to defend the bullied, and stand up for what he believes, against teachers and students alike. He's excited about his new year, and excited that his sister will be joining him.
Interests: Quidditch, 'mythical' animals, Dragons, reptiles.
Strengths: Works well with reptilian animals, is confident and strong (As in mentally), doesn't let anyone lower his confidence.(Such as bullies who pick on him for his white hair and red eyes.)
Weaknesses:Can have a sharp temper that gets him in to unnecessary fights, doesn't know when to back down or retreat. Not sure it's really a 'weakness', but he is willing to die to protect his friends or family.

You seem to be missing the Accidentally part. I know how spells work, I just wonder how you Accidentally, meaning unintentionally, shout a spell.

Oh, sorry, well his wand has a Threstral core. The first wand to cast the Killing Curse if I certain was the Elder Wand, a wand made with a Thestral core. Thestrals are part of a world between the living and dead. James wand is made of bone and that core, when truly angry I am sure the words could slip out of his mouth without knowing. First as a though, second as spoken word. Given that the wand he stole from his father was made for the purpose of killing this would only add to the temptation James would have to use it on say a bully. Basically it would be like a voice whispering it into his ear and corrupting his thoughts until he actually did do it. Just a thought though, that is definitely not concrete.

He better leave the bullies to Jet, then

Jet could prove a friend for James though (I don't know if the houses are done yet but there is a fifty fifty shot that James is between Slytherin and Gryffindor, he fits both houses too well as at heart he is a good kid, but so much could go wrong there.) even if they aren't in the same house that could be humorous if he met Jet first and then met Moony

"Hey, Jet, I just met the cutest girl today!"
"Really, what's her name?"
"Moony I think, sharp as a tack, even if she does zone out in though at times."
-awkward stares as James realizes they are both Sparks-

Before you ask, yes that is truly the worst bro moment in history, finding out your bestfriend has a crush on your sister. I mean ya can't be mad at him, but at the same time you have to protect your sister- 'tis trouble, the feelings of love. Funny as Hell, but still troubling. XD

Hah. That totally needs to happen now

How old is James? Is he a first year?

And they can be friends without being in the same house.

Yeah, first year. I know, just would be harder for them to meet.

They could meet in class, or just like, run into each other or something

[Holy Empire of Avalon]

Yeah, first year. I know, just would be harder for them to meet.

They could meet in class, or just like, run into each other or something

Yes, but they would have to bump into each other often as James is shy remember? So it would be pretty hard for him to become friends after just meeting a person once.

That's true. I mean, Jet might be the type that, if he decided he liked James, would invite him to hang out with him after just one meeting, but that doesn't mean James would accept.

Kinda surprised your character isn't named Robert

It was between Arthur, Robert, Lazarus, and James. I chose James because of a story I wrote long ago detailing a boy a lot like this character, only difference was he had Voldermort's wand, where as this one has something far more dangerous. I mean Voldermort's wand is like a bullet compared the this nuke. Rather good thing James is not evil, and sucks at using magic, but still I am going to have him be terrible in class (which quite possibly could have him meet Moony) because his wand refuses to do non lethal magic. Might even have him be forced to go to Olivanders and get a wand assigned to him being as he never did that. Could be a fun little side story.
*Ooooo and due to his usage of a wand that was basically on the border between life and death he could even have to have a yew wand since they are said to have power over life or death, what core he would get could be interesting.

I didn't know you could really get a wand without it choosing you. I mean, you can use someone else's, but, yeah, that as far as I'm aware doesn't work too well.

[Nuridia]

Is anybody interested in meeting Pandora in the story? She has a phoenix feather core wand and those are the hardest to train, she's had it for five years so it's mostly loyal but still likes to backfire.

He stole it from his father, the bone that makes up the wand is actually His Mother's Femur Bone that is why it responds to him amazingly as it would no other, but of course him and his father. I thoguth it would provide a rather unique story to have to explain to his friend's at some point.

I just kinda figure my characters will meet whoever they end up running across in the RP first.
