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

[Fiery Armageddon]

Oh, and if you want me to explain by what, "But his ritual failed." meant, I'll tell you

Sure!

Sorry I've been off, but what I mean is, he is basically like Bigby Wolf from The Wolf Among Us, if you don't know what that means, he only turns if he is getting injured, dying, or loosing his temper. Oh and also, he has stages to his Lycanthropy, and his condition gets worse the worse he is injured, etc.

What kind of creatures of playful and happy? I was going to have my character's wand use a core made of them, but I could find no such beast.

Pixies?

[Corrian]

Got one of my apps done. I have others, but they're not finished yet but I wanted get at least one app up before the OP disappears until Saturday.

I'm not sure why but coming up with strengths was difficult for this character...She doesn't really have very specific strengths in the past with RP's, so I guess it makes sense...

My Harry Potter history is a little rusty, so if anything is off, say so.

Name: Adair Ferland
Age: 11, birthday August 19th
Year(For a student only): 1st
House(order the four houses from favorite to least favorite. I'll try to give you your first or second choice): Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, Gryffindor, and Slytherin
Wand Type: Redwood with unicorn hair core, ten and three quarter inches, quite flexible
Pet(Name, Type, Description): Her name is Maya, and she is a cat. Picture says more than words can, especially written by me:

. She weighs only a mere 6 pounds, being a very light cat that is full grown. Super sweet when she wants to be, but can have her moments when she just wants to be by herself and doesn't want much to do with people.
Quidditch Position(Team, Position): None
Blood-status: Muggle-Born
Family: Isiah Ferland (Father) and Maddi Ferland (Mother)
Personality: Super happy hyperactive little girl who acts like she is a ball full of constant never ending energy boosted to even more extreme levvels with caffeine. She's super friendly to others, as well, and for her to be rude to you, you probably had to have done something pretty serious to piss her off. There barely seems to be a bad bone in her body.
Appearance:

History: She grew up with her parents, never believing such a thing as magic existed or was logically possible to even exist, or even remotely thinking about it in the first place for that matter. Her parents taught her well, like to treat others nicely, and how you would want to be treated. Part of the reason she was the nice person that she was had to do with her parents, but her personality came naturally and isn't at all like either of her parents. Neither one of them are, or ever were as cheerful as she comes off as on a regular basis.

But one day, she got this weird letter in the mail saying that she had been invited to this school for Wizard's and Witches, and she couldn't believe what she was wearing. When her parents went out of their way to verify it wasn't some dumb fake letter being sent out around, they somehow or other found out that it was in fact true. While she really didn't want to leave her parents that she was so close to, the idea of going to a school full of magic was amazing to her, and something that she never expected to possibly happen. There was obviously a reason they chose her, and she felt honored beyond words that she could describe what had just happened in her life.

And with that set in stone, she eventially set out for Hogwarts after getting everything that she needed and such.
Interests: Drawing, cuddly things, and games
Strengths: Working with animals and her friendliness and kindness to others. Honestly can't really think of anything else to add.
Weaknesses: Being overly kind to everyone could also be a weakness at times due to the fact that she could be TOO nice to everyone, and get herself caught up in something with being nice to people trying to use her. Another weakness of hers is that she gets scared rather easily when it comes to any serious situations, making it hard for her to really do anything useful in those situations.

Problem is pixies cause more mischief than just being playful.

She has a really long wand, and she's sort. I'm pretty sure shorter people usually get shorter wands.

Misconception, the wand length is actually a measure of how complete the person personality is, that was my question when I started looking at it all, but nope lots of short people can have long wands. Figured the length was correct being as she is very outgoing and constantly happy.

I still think 18 inches is kind of long. I could see it being long, but the average is 14. And we have a lot of people with big wands as is.

My character is outgoing and happy and has a tiny wand....I didn't know that the length had something to do with personality.

hm... phoenix?

[Lorellion]

IC is up! Will put the link in the OP.

[Terintania]

How are we supposed to start?

[Lorellion]

I was thinking that we should start at King's Cross getting on the train.

Name: Orion Prince
Age: 15
Year(For a student only): 5
House(order the four houses from favorite to least favorite. I'll try to give you your first or second choice): Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, Slytherin, Gryffindor
Wand Type: Hawthorn and phoenix feather, 14 1/2 inches
Pet(Name, Type, Description): Beedle, A slightly below average size barn owl
Blood-status: Half-blood
Family: Muggle mother, wizard father, distant cousin of Severus Snape although this is not well known and he does not advertise it.
Personality: Studious and hard working, a bit of a loner but in fact friendly and cheerful when approached as long as it doesn't interfere with his work.
Appearance: Average height, black hair, shoulder length but meticulously groomed and dark blue eyes.
History: Orion Prince was born in London where he lived until the age of nine. He exhibited magical ability from an early age and his admission to Hogwarts was assumed to the pride of both his parents. When he was nine his father came had a disagreement over gold with a particularly aggressive group of goblins. The family was forced to flee their home in the dead of night and have been moving from place to place ever since. It came as a relief to Orion's parents when he went off to Hogwarts, putting him in a safe place while they attempted to resolve their issues with the goblins. Due to the instability of his parents' situation Orion had little contact with them during his early years at Hogwarts and would return to a different home every summer. Thus Hogwarts became his most stable home and even now that his parents' lives have become more stable he still feels more at home there than with them.
Interests: Reading, potions, magical history
Strengths: Very intelligent and knowledgeable on many subjects.
Weaknesses: Distinctly more adept at magical theory than its practical use.

Accepted!

If you are a professor, you are welcome to be a head of a house if would like. Also, as I will be away, when the sorting for the first years comes around, you may each portray the sorting hat when it is your character's turn to get sorted(if they are a 1st year of course). My character, Ella Fedele, will be sorted into Ravenclaw. And by the way, if you haven't read the OP, the Minister of Magic is Loxias Fedele(Ella's father) and the Headmaster is Thorfinn Elesmere.

[Lightwood (Ancient)]

yay, IC posting! may I be co-op?

[Lorellion]

I actually already asked Avalon to be Co-OP, because we kind of talked about the story line over TG, so he knows what the plot will be like. However, I think that all of the approved members so far should have the ability to review apps and help newcomers.

Is it possible for someone at the age of ten to depart home for Hogwarts to attend their First Year?
