Shock Trick // 16 // 4th Year // Thunderbird // No-maj Born
Undecided
FC: Sky Ferreira
Shock has no name, she did at one point but can no longer recall what it was. When she was very little and first began displaying magical powers, her mother, who was a hunter brought her to another group of hunters being unable to bear killing her own child. The hunters tortured her in every way imaginable, all in the name of exercising the magic from her so they could return her to her mother. Their favourite method, the one they thought most likely to work was the shock treatments. They said the word so many times, she was convinced that was what her name was. Eventually she was rescued by someone who worked for a mobster by the name of Oogie Boogie. Ever since, she’s devoted her life to the man, unconditionally.
When oogie went to America, she went with him and enrolled at the school to get close to all the rich young pureblood princes and princesses, anyone her boss could use or manipulate. She impresses most and scares pretty much everyone with her penchant for electric magics. In her spare time, she’s taken to hunting and torturing no-majs. They say that everyone needs a hobby but will Shock’s be her undoing in the end?
Positive Traits:
Smart, Creative, Strong Willed
Negative Traits:
Unstable, Temperamental, Blunt
Connections:
Oogie Boogie: Her boss
Trick o’ Trio: Her best friends, her only family
Barrel Trick // 18 // Highschool Senior // Squib
Henchman
FC: Elliot Fletcher
Barrel is a squib, he was born to very wealthy and powerful pureblood parents but was abandoned in Romania once they learned he couldn’t do a lick of magic. He roamed the streets of the dangerous city of Bucharest for several days before being found by Boogie’s men. It struck him how little muggles seemed to understand about the dangers that surrounded them, to them, Bucharest was just like any other city. He didn’t expect Oogie Boogie to have any use for a magicless loser like himself but surprisingly, he did. Oogie liked having someone without magic on hand for spying and integrating into muggle society. Growing up he only began to feel more out of place as he realized he wasn’t straight but in the Boogie family he found a home.
He went with Oogie to America, eager to find ways to help. He couldn’t enrol at Ilvermorny but he was able to enrol at Adamsville High. He’s been gently pulling his new friends into darker pastimes but he’s beginning to feel a little bit guilty. The people he goes to school with are so kind and mostly accepting of him. Will his guilt win out or will it be his love for his family and if the guilt does win out, will he even survive?
Positive Traits:
Friendly, Supportive, Creative
Negative Traits:
Dim Witted, Bull headed, Mean
Connections:
Oogie Boogie: His boss
Trick o’ Trio: His best friends and only family
Jack Skellington // 20(0) // 8th year // Thunderbird // Pureblood, Vampire
No-Maj Studies Specialization
FC: Andy Biersack
Jack Skellington is old, very old but very young at heart. He grew up in a wizarding community in Romania where he was regarded as the master of fright. Few people were as scary as he was and few were as kind and enthusiastic about it. He was creepy but he was also pleasant, he was a total enigma and people were drawn to him and creatures of the night were drawn to him as well. One night, he was approached by a vampire who offered him a chance to step into the world of the night, to hone his gifts to become scary but not mean. He accepted and became a vampire in a coven who’s primary goal was to scare muggles in order to protect them from the dangerous vampires like the infamous Hades.
The years rolled by and he became restless, he felt fulfilled but also empty, he scared human muggles but knew nothing of their world or the world beyond his wizarding community. When he heard that a few other people from his town were relocating to the new England in the Americas he chose to go to, what resulted was a fascinating journey of discovery. He fell in love with muggle culture and when he arrived at Greylock’s landing he chose to enrol at Ilvermorny to specialize in no-maj studies as an open and registered vampire.
He found that people aren’t all that accepting of vampires outside of Romania, wizards weren’t at least. No majs (as they were called in America) on the other hand, seemed to like them quite a bit. They had romance movies and novels, movies where vampires were super heroes and even funny family movies where vampires were dads. He thinks it’s great but also worries that maybe the people in Adamsville need a good fright to remind them why people feared vampires in the first place…
Positive Traits:
Creative, Enthusiastic, Smart.
Negative Traits:
Creepy, Bull headed, Selfish
Connections:
The Trick o’ Treaters: A small band of hooligans who worked for mob boss oogie boogie in Romania. He bears no ill will towards them but doesn’t like them much.
Oogie Boogie: A Romanian Mob boss who has hurt his friends on multiple occasions. Jack considers him to be a bag of worms
Sally Finkelstein: They know each other from the village they both came from. Sally is a bit of a mystery to him but he thinks she’s alright.
