MCTober2025: Week 1:

Introduce your MC

Thank you for the Hogwarts Legacy MCTober2025 Prompts @myokk !!! ✨️

Cassandra Moore

Cassandra, or "Cass" as her closest friends call her, started at Hogwarts on September 1, 1890, and was sorted into Slytherin (though the hat did briefly consider some other options.)

She is the Pure-Blood daughter of Constantine Moore, a celebrated London-based Potioneer, and the late Daphne Hawthorne, oh, and the younger sister of Hellen. Because Cass thought she was a squib until July of 1890, she couldn't care less about blood status. She knows damn well it doesn't mean a thing.

Her favourite subjects? Well, Potions is up there - it was one of the only things she could do before she knew she was a witch, and she'd long shadowed her father, hoping that she could do something to impress him. To be seen as worthy in his eyes. Like Hellen. Of course, she took a shining to Defence Against the Dark Arts too, when she realised she had a pretty good knack for that too, unlike Hellen.

Herbology on the other hand? Don't ask her to look after your plants if you want to keep them alive. She will kill your cactus. Not because she wants to of course, it's just... Cass can't really 'plant.' As nice as Professor Garlick is, she kind of hates the subject. It brings up feelings of, shall we say, inadequacy. She's also not fond of History of Magic, but aside from maybe two or three people in their year, she's not so ashamed about the prospect of failing this one. I mean... it's just scheduled nap time for most of them, really. And she could use the sleep.

(Bonus: Depending if we're talking Canon Compliant Cass or Canon Divergent Cass, there's two more subjects of interest: Ancient Runes and Divination. Canon Compliant Cass takes Divination, because her late mother had a fondness for the subject, going so far as to name her after a Seer in Greek mythology. Cass thought she might like the subject - but no. Not so much. Her Canon Divergent counterpart drops it in favour of Ancient Runes.)

When she's not out slaughtering Ashwinders running errands, Cass loves to lounge about with her friends, read Penny Dreadfuls by the fireplace in the Slytherin common room, play a round of Wizards Chess, spend time with her barn owl, Mercury, and collect chocolate frog cards ("That's just an excuse. She only wants the chocolate.") Shush, Sebastian. She does like the cards too. Only she wishes Isadora might appear in one - but alas. The Keepers have done their work erasing her well it seems.

Up next week: Who Cass's circle consists of!

WEEK 2 OF MCTOBER ^^ 💕💕

So for Evelyn and Harper's closest friends (that aren't their love interests! ^^)

Harper shares her time with Poppy Sweeting they both love their Beasts and have a sisterly bond (more than Harper’s actual twin lol xD)

For Evelyn she shares her companions with the other fellow Ravenclaws: Samantha Dale and Amit Thakkar. They would talk about many knowledgeable things, just not when Evelyn talks about Sebastian 😅😅

[amethystandemma]

So incredibly late (thanks university!) but I am here for week one ooooooooooooof @myokk's MCtober with

Althea Moonlace!

Casual fit AKA my favorite thing to put her in

Althea is a Hufflepuff in her fifth-year during the events of the first game. Professor Eleazar Fig found her in an orphanage a year before the game starts and adopted her, along with his now late wife Miriam.

Thea is a pureblood of French descent, the only daughter of Selene Perrot and Oberon Moonlace, as well as the last of the Moonlaces. She has her father's vibrant pink hair but her mother's features and eyes. They were murdered when she was just three years old, leaving her to a fate of bouncing between orphanage after orphanage.

Blood-status is something she does not care much about. Her pureblood relatives on her mother's side did not take her in when she needed someone, so her opinion on the society as a whole is rather tainted. In short, she doesn't care what your blood-status is, she'll still kick your ass.

Fifth year Althea

Some of her hobbies include swimming, sewing, dancing, trash-talking Sebastian in French with Ominis, and simply being outside. The Black Lake is one of her favorite spots to swim in because of its sheer size (and the giant squid.)

Her favorite subjects include Herbology, Care of Magical Beasts, and her adoptive father's class Magical Theory.

Althea with a Mandrake in Herbology

Her least favorite subject is, like most students, History of Magic. Professor Binns has nearly put her to sleep many times.

This is a lot shorter than I originally wanted, but I am currently very sick and cannot do more. I have been loving all of y'all's entries though! Keep them coming!

Character profile:

House: Slytherin 

Height: 6’1”

Sexuality: Pansexual

Wand: Cypress, unicorn hair, 10¾", unyielding

Zacharias Blackwood (no relation to the Black and Wood family union several centuries before) was born to a Muggle father and Witch mother in Cheshire, England. As a metamorphmagus, he inherited his ability to shapeshift at will from his mother, and uses it to change the colour of his hair depending on his mood. His friends often say they give him a wide berth if he happens to be sporting black hair any given day.

He is studious and enjoys reading  about rare spells and branches of magic, something which he bonded over with Sebastian. He also asked Natty to teach him wandless magic in their seventh year and learned how to cast the patronus charm 'for fun'.

As well as being a bookworm, he enjoys using his shapeshifting ability to get in to (and out of) trouble and indulging in a little mallowsweet at the end of a busy day.

His mother's side of the family disowned her when she married Zach's father, a Muggle. His father's family were similarly appalled at their son's choice of partner, branding her a ‘freak’, and were subsequently obliviated by the Ministry when they threatened to expose the magical community. As such, Zach has no relationship with his grandparents.

Zach has a somewhat strained relationship with his brother who is two years older and now working as an administrator in the Ministry of Magic. Zach is generally distrustful of the establishment. Dominic didn't inherit their mother's metamorphmagus abilities, only increasing the tension between the siblings.

MCtober Week 1: Sophronia de Vere

Not sure if I'll do all of it but here is my MC Sophronia de Vere!

Sophronia is a shy slytherin who lives with her grandparents in a small village in England. After their passing, she has an incident that causes her to release the ancient magic that has been hidden within her for so long. Reeling from the fact that magic exists and that she has ancient magic—reminiscent of the stories she so dearly loved, she begins her journey to Hogwarts all alone. Once she arrives, she falls head over heels in love with Sebastian at first sight.

With her newfound love of magic and the world around her, Sophronia works hard at gaining knowledge, attempting to make friends, and saving the world from Ranrok and Victor Rookwood. She is shy and has social anxiety but magic has given her a new home and find where she belongs, so she will not let anyone take that away from her. She has to overcome countless struggles and will get hurt, but she will never let her home, her friends, or herself down.

She loves charms class because she's now in a world of magic and wants to learn all the spells she can. Each class she enjoys—though she does dread Professor Ronen's outdoor classes as she never knows what to expect. As for potions, she enjoys the class but it is very stressful. God knows what will happen if she gets just one thing wrong. However, she absolutely adores Professor Sharp. He is admittedly good looking but she also respects him as both a professor and wizard. She doesn't understand why people hate potions or think he's a bad professor. Is it his sternness? His emphasis on getting things right? To her, he's a good professor and she will always admire him.

Professor Fig has become her second family, becoming another grandfather to her. Growing up with her grandparents meant that she was used to living and being cared for by people who were much older than her so she finds comfort in his presence. The loss of him hits her deeply as she has yet again lost another family member. But thankfully for her, she heals through her relationship with Sebastian and they eventually start a family of their own.

Obsessed with nifflers, she dotes on those she has in her vivariums—especially her chief and main niffler Snuffles. He is a troublemaker who is very protective of his mother, judging each person she closely befriends to see if they are good people. Her love of nifflers is so great she has plushies and other such merch of them in her room. Cute things capture her interest what can I say.

Though if you dare insult nifflers or those close to her, even her shyness will take a step back to her fury. Rip to those that dare to anger her

(I do have a lovely art of her with niffler plushies but it was done by a Japanese artist on twitter and out of respect for them, I will not repost the art. But their handle is @/ Kagehunihuni and their mc Nosferatu is sooooo cute!!! I want to hug him)

MCtober 2024

Week 5 - Halloween Costume

Having received Treasure Island as one of his birthday gifts this year and quickly consumed it, Hellendil easily decided that he wanted to dress as a pirate for Halloween.

He'd be able to use some of the pieces of his own wardrobe for the costume and his father would supply the metal accessories. But he knew at least one of the pieces would need to be custom made and he knew just who would be able to pull it off. He put in his order at Isobel and Idris' Costume Boutique early to give them enough time. Surely they were very busy this time of year. Isobel's dresses and corsets always looked incredible so he was certain she would nail the design. And that she did.

Though, he didn't realize just how hard it would be to dress himself in a corset. After trying to no avail, he resigns himself to loosening the laces and asking for help. The brunet grabs his things and strides across the hall to rap on the neighboring door. As the door creaks open he waves at the tall Swede.

"Hey, Felix! Happy All Hallows Eve, my friend!" he exclaims, a bright smile on his face. "Uh, do you think you can help me with something?" he asks rather sheepishly. He turns around, pulling the braid over his shoulder and revealing the lacing on the back of the corset. "I can't seem to lace this corset properly by myself. Would you mind giving me a hand?"

MCtober Week 4: Willow Abbott's Patronus, Happiest Memory, & Boggart

Defence Against the Dark Arts was the class Willow struggled with most. When she was old enough to begin the Mythos, Arts, and Magical Expression track at Nivalis School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, she was relieved because it meant she would never have to take DADA again!

With that said, Willow did not actually struggle to conjure a Patronus. She has no shortage of happy memories. The one that came to mind as one of her happiest memories involved her younger sister, Hazel. There is a large age gap - eight years - between them. After an entire childhood of longing, Willow was so excited to finally have a sibling. Shortly after she turned one year old, Hazel began to walk and, what's more, she took her first steps towards Willow! This was the memory that filled her mind as she called out, "Expecto Patronum!" And right before her eyes, a silvery tonkinese cat appeared.

According to @the-patronus-librarian, "A tonkinese cat patronus is produced by inquisitive witches and wizards. This patronus belongs to those who are willing to take chances in order to learn and appease their curiosity, and they have plenty of it.  They are highly observant and constantly looking to mentally challenge themselves. These individuals love to know everything they can about a person. They always seem to forget about personal space, but they always have good intentions. These witches and wizards are the type to seek out when you need some help with that essay you’ve been struggling with or tutoring with that one subject you just can’t seem to get a grasp of. They are wonderful teachers and are always happy to help."

I also read that tonkinese cat patronuses can represent a creative, playful, witty, affectionate, loyal, and emotionally intelligent person.

Dealing with a Boggart, however, was not as simple. Willow failed the Boggart unit, initially, and was forced to attend tutoring. It wasn't that Willow couldn't memorize facts about Boggarts - the problem was in practice. Whenever Willow faced a Boggart, it turned into her parents, Alder and Joyce. They seemed upset, and it began with the two of them yelling at her and then more quietly speaking about how Willow had disappointed them. The screaming made her freeze like a deer in headlights. Willow hates conflict and does not deal with it well, and her family is both her strength and weakness. When she was finally able to cast Riddikulus, her parents were suddenly wearing ice cream cone costumes, just like mascots, dancing crazily!
