Name: Edward Dale

Gender: Male

Appearance: Dark brown hair, blue eyes, and round glasses. Edward is slightly tall for his age. (This will be replaced with an image once I can get Midjourney to work)

Birthplace: London, UK

Date of Birth: January 7th, 1900

Bio:

Edward’s parents first met at a scientific conference. His father is a scientist who is respected in his field, though is ultimately unremarkable, having a productive career but no revolutionary breakthroughs. Edward’s mother claimed to be an heiress of some sort, but somewhat estranged from her family. The pair were mutually intrigued, one thing led to another, and they were married with a child shortly after. It was an open secret between them that the background she hailed from wasn't exactly mundane, but out of respect for her privacy Edward's father didn't pry too deeply into it, a state of affairs aided by the fact that her family seemingly wanted little to do with her.

Unfortunately, Edward never got the opportunity to know her in detail. Struck down by illness when Edward was a young child, she left his father to raise him on his own. As he was slightly withdrawn after his wife's death, and trying to balance the needs of a scientific career and being a single father, this resulted in Edward spending much of his childhood with tutors and staff, an upbringing that made him somewhat thoughtful and withdrawn.

Years later, a peculiar letter arrived. Bearing word of a college that neither Edward's father nor his associates had ever heard of, subjects that would hardly seem out of place in a witch's grimoire, and some attribute, some unearthly talent within Edward himself, his father took it upon himself to summon up old memories and half-remembered conversations, and convey to Edward what little he knew of the strange world his mother had called home.

Now facing his heritage, Edward must navigate a world he finds truly unfamiliar, yet that he was always destined to be a part of.

My participation in most RPs tends to be short-lived, so I have less experience than the number of them listed would otherwise indicate.

Name:Talinus Jorthar
Gender:Male
Appearance:Like a typical twelve year old boy, black hair, grey eyes, nothing special.
Birthplace:Providence,Rhode Island
Date of Birth:April 30th,1900
Bio:Talinus was born into a large and poor wizard family. Growing up the youngest of five children he knew what it was like to struggle, eating scraps and surviving in a rapidly industrializing and changing world. He doesn't know it, but his father was disgraced from the wizarding world and forced to move to America some time ago, where he fell in love with a non-magical woman and started a family in Newport. Because of this the Jorthars are sneered at in the magical community and considered lower class amongst wizards and witches. Talinus doesn't know why he's hated by the upperclassmen of the wizarding community and doesn't care. When he got his letter he wasn't even excited and protested but his parents told him this was an opportunity and that he had to go. Not particularly excited about trading his friends and life in America for a life dealing with elitists and rules he packed his few meager belongings and left to begin his education at College Greymore, unaware of the perils and adventure that awaited him.
