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

[United States of Cascadia]

Arthur getting slapped is still a valid option though.

Probably

Edit: I'm imagining Agatha going to the sorting feast by herself, but Arthur showing up and just like, sitting next to her out of nowhere

I was considering doing that actually.

"*The Hogwarts Express begins to roll forward from King's Cross Station. The journey to Hogwarts has begun.*"

I think we kinda took it upon ourselves to move the train along somewhat, Lorellion, but I don't think it matters that much.

I was considering doing that actually.

I dunno if I've watched too many movies or what, but there must be something that made me guess that type of character would do that so easily...

Edit: Be back in a few hours. Going to an animal rescue I volunteer at.

Yeah, I kind of gathered that, but I was just trying to move things along.

[Tiktaaland]

Name: Corvus Flintback
Age: 15
Year: 5
House: Slytherin, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, Gryfindor
Wand Type: Walnut Wand, 11'', Snidget Feather
Pet(Name, Type, Description): Trouble, a Puffskein. About the size of a basketball, with brown fur. It has survived use in transfiguration, charms, and quidditch practice (when he was briefly stolen).
Quidditch Position(Team, Position): N/A
Blood-status: Pureblood
Family: Son of Ivan and Cornelia Flintback, four younger siblings and several cousins.
Personality: Somewhat secretive, keeps his ambitions to himself. Creative. Likes to exert control, but indirectly (ie, by influencing those more widely influential than him). Loyal to friends, but does not actively seek friendship.
Appearance: Somewhat short, but not remarkeably so, with brownish-blackish hair. His irises are nearly indistinguishable from his pupils.
History: Corvus was born on the Flintback Estate, a large property in the Scottish countryside. His parents, breeders of magical beasts (including the endangered Golden Snidget) taught him to appreciate the natural world, although with time he came to prefer to appreciate it from behind a pane of glass, or through books. As a pureblood raised in a magic-practicing household, his invitation to Hogwarts came as no surprise. While taught not to discriminate against half-bloods and muggle-borns, he had little exposure to them priority to his schooling (which may explain his discomfort around those of non-wizard lineage).
Interests: Wandlore, History, Drawing
Strengths: Intelligent, Persistent, Creative
Weaknesses: Physically, he isn't especially strong. Struggles to compromise after he's made up his mind.

"About 30 percent of children between 7 and 10 years of age and 45 percent of teenagers engage in nail biting."

Wow, that's more of a common habit than I thought.

Final app. Just need to get the picture up.

The scary part is that I was biting my nails when I read this.

Family: His 3 older sisters Emily (19), April (19), Ashton (21)Also his mother (non-magic), and his father(Magic) whom left the house when Thonas was born.
Personality: Thomas is known throughout his house, for being able to avoid heavy injury from his many misadventures and walk away completely unscathed. Even after running down a soaped corridor floor into a wall, he was alright. With this said, most people simply avoid Thomas. But, he's made 3 good friends whom he does just about everything with.
Appearance: TBD
History: Thomas was born in the city, and always loves tall buildings and cramped spaces. This led to a fear for large spaces however, so he spends most of his free time in his room. Thomas's life was fairly boring up until his first year at hogwarts. There, he met a few new friends, scared a few people, and lost his sense of care causing a complete disregard for his own safety. He can commonly be found in his room or in detention.
Interests: When not having misadventures, Thomas enjoys writing about them in books then hiding them in the library under the name "Luke" for the other students to find.
Strengths: Strong Relations, and disregard for death.
Weaknesses: Bad social skills, disregard for death, fear of open spaces, and how his peers view him.

Well, to be quite honest with you, I'd be all for that idea as long as you can take it in an original direction. I don't want your character to be exactly like Remus Lupin, so if you can assure me that your character will be interesting and original, than you are welcome to be a werewolf.

Okay. So the headmaster would probably know about this... so what if they sent him into the woods during the nights?

I'm not an OP or a Co-OP so I have no authority, but I feel like it would be very difficult to RP a werewolf at Hogwarts. It seems like it would get very complicated.

Which needs to be updated.

I'm the Charms professor.

Lore will get to it eventually. He does have quite a few other people that have been accepted too. And a shit ton of pages to read through still, I would imagine. And I'm certain he want's to actually do some RPing too.
