WOTCHER! There goes ALARIC, who still rocks the SLYTHERIN colors on the sly. I hear their housemates used to call them ROWLE. Loads of wizarding folk are fond of how HEADSTRONG and DISCIPLINED they are. Then again, others have referred to them as a common goblin when they act RUTHLESS and CYNICAL. Ever since the THIRTY year old graduated from Hogwarts in 1977, they’ve found themselves hanging around SCOTLAND, UK, but word has it NITRA, SLOVAKIA is their stomping grounds. The ROWLE family likes to brag that ever since they’ve become KNIGHT BUS DRIVER, they’re raking in the galleons, but I reckon only Gringotts knows the truth. I heard that one time, they stumbled onto a muggle street by mistake; someone asked if their name was SEAN TEALE, though they haven’t the faintest idea who that is. (c, she/her, 20+, ast.) ++ PAST TRANSFER FROM DURMSTRANG
guess who’s back (back again). with this new interactive element at wizards, i think its the right time to bring back my literal disaster child alaric rowle !! if you want to plot with my psycho of a son, please like this post and i’ll come holla @ you.
AESTHETIC PROSE: whisky, stale cigarettes, the smell of a damp, semi-abandoned building, rich coppery bitterness. a light flickering for the first time in months, a spark of relief. withered hands and tired eyes. cruel, vindictive, twisting anger.
do. not. call. him. alaric. he hates it. he responds only to rowle.
the sorting hat struggled between slytherin and ravenclaw when he transferred at the beginning of his sixth year. the hat was on his head for a full minute before it made its decision.
his father, thorfinn rowle, was imprisoned in azkaban shortly after the first wizarding war. his mother, seraphina, though also a supporter, had moved back in with her parents in slovenia when she found out she was pregnant. they stayed there and she never told alaric about his father, though it was a question he asked time and again. when he found out in his teen years, he felt betrayed by his mother and chose to move in with his paternal grandfather and transfer to hogwarts. he’d always been quite interested in the dark arts, given that it was part of the curriculum at durmstrang, and while his mother might have been perfectly okay acting as if the war never happened, and that his father was a criminal, alaric felt otherwise. in his head his father was a martyr who’d been imprisoned for his loyalty and his dedication.
he was an expert dueller at durmstrang and would have continued on were it not for pains in his wand hand. muggles would know it as something similar to carpal tunnel, or arthritis, but no salves or potions he’s used have done much help. he can still cast spells, but simply not at the speed and with the dexterity required were he a professional duellist. this failure was poorly timed with the discovery of the truth of who his father was, leading him down a very dark path.
personality wise he is very quiet, very reserved, and isn’t much of a conversationalist. he’s an extreme introvert with aggressive tendencies and a very gruff demeanor. he’s incredibly muscular which can come off intimidating which he has maintained in order to discourage others from communicating with him. he prefers to be left to his own devices. he was always a bit of a loner and the friends he did have were friends who shared his same values and who took themselves more seriously than a lot of the students in their year.
he has three jagged scars marring the left side of his face. they were unable to be healed with magic as they were given to him by a partially transformed werewolf. while the cuts were deep enough to scar, he suffers no lycanthropic side-effects from the marks.
he was previously the DADA professor at hogwarts in 1988-89 and was known for being tough! he failed half of his students first term with extremely difficult exams that you had to pass to stay in his class. he was later fired from hogwarts for magically throwing a student off of the bow of a ship during the student travel trip. he then worked at a bar before being sacked for rowing with customers.
just got out of azkaban prison, where he has been serving a sentence for magical assault. he was in prison for approx 4 months, where he got to reconnect with his daddy (side by side cells yo) and came to appreciate what freedom really tastes like. he has no plans on going back!!!!
MERLIN’S BEARD! Did you see AVALON, also known as AVA/LONNIE rocking the SLYTHERIN house colors in class today? How they manage to look so fit, while studying their arse off during their SEVENTH YEAR of schooling, is beyond me. The EIGHTEEN-year-old student is certainly making the BALINOR family proud, aren’t they? One time, I heard someone say the PUREBLOOD looks a lot like some muggle, OLIVIA HOLT – whoever that is.
guess who’s back? back again!! bringing back my smol slytherin babe, so if anyone would like to plot (or re-plot!!!) please message me!
meet avalon balinor
HISTORY
born second child to the pureblooded balinor family, avalon was a bit of a surprise. as with many pureblood families, the balinors planned only for a single heir and that would be enough. however, ten years after the birth of their son gwaine, demelza balinor found out that she was with child yet again. gwaine was ecstatic at the news of a younger sibling, but their father cromwell balinor was another story, as he was wary about having another child so long after gwaine.
that wary feeling disappeared the moment that the baby was born. cromwell looked upon his daughter, and from that moment on she was daddy’s little princess. they named the girl avalon after the island where excalibur was forged, continuing the tradition of arthurian names that they had begun with gwaine, who was named after sir gwaine, knight of the roundtable.
for all of avalon’s early childhood, gwaine was away at hogwarts – where he, too, was a slytherin – making avalon the sole focus of their parents’ attention during the school year. though most children would resent their younger siblings for this, gwaine could never bring himself too. despite the age difference, the balinor children were always thick as theives, and avalon idolized her brother.
in fact, when the time for avalon to attend hogwarts came, she begged the hat to put her in slytherin to follow in her brother’s footsteps –- demelza had attended beauxbatons and cromwell, durmstrang -– though it initially thought she might do well in gryffindor. she joined many of the same clubs he had, joined the quidditch team as he had, and studied her ass off to be as good of a student as he was.
in avalon’s fourth year, everything changed. on her christmas break, she returned to her family manor in whiltshire as she always did, and gwaine – then twenty four – came home as well. they spent their time singing christmas carols, baking cookies, and decorating the tree, until the day that cromwell and demelza went on their anniversary date, leaving gwaine and avalon home alone. the siblings’ lives were changed when authorities arrived on their doorstep, telling them that there had been a car accident and that their parents had not survived. following this, gwaine became avalon’s legal guardian, leaving his job in iceland to return home to england permanently and be close to his sister.
Sunrise over the hills, the smell of the forest after it rains, the late-night crackling of fires, the burn of firewhiskey, thundering heartbeat in her ears after an adrenaline rush, the scratching of quill on parchment, ink stains her quidditch-calloused hands, the reflection of the moon on the water, pinky-promises, muffled laughter at 3am, the flash of a polaroid camera
tbh if you’re still reading i’m impressed bc that was pretty rambly, but without further ado here are some possible connections im looking for!!
MERLIN’S BEARD! Did you see DONAL, also known as DONNY rocking the HUFFLEPUFF house colors in class today? How they manage to look so fit, while studying their arse off during their SEVENTH YEAR of schooling, is beyond me. The EIGHTEEN-year-old student is certainly making the FALLON family proud, aren’t they? One time, I heard someone say the HALF-BLOOD looks a lot like some muggle, JORDAN FISHER – whoever that is.
say hello to my lil head boy!
HISTORY
in the late winter of 1970, a young michael fallon went on a delayed post-graduation trip to ireland where he met the beautiful saorise mccarthy in a pub on the outskirts of dublin. though michael did not know it at the time, saorise had just celebrated her own graduation that summer from hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry. they laughed and drank together all night long, stumbling their way back to the young witch’s flat for a nightcap. a mere two months later, michael fallon -- back in his new york studio apartment -- received a letter from saorise that she was pregnant, that she didn’t want or expect anything from him and she just wanted him to know. without a second thought, michael packed all of his belongings, booked a plane ticket, and called his landlord before heading to the airport. he had had an absentee father, there was no way he was going to be one. the reunion surprised saorise, but she welcomed it, realizing that she would have to expose michael to her world. the two quickly married though they did not know each other well, as were the times. by the time that their child was born, they had fallen into a comfortable relationship in their marriage -- not quite purely romantic, but certainly not purely platonic either. then, on september 23, 1971, michael and saorise fallon welcomed their son donal into the world.
donal was a rambunctious child, but incredibly sweet and charming, which made michael and saorise decide to have another child together. donal’s sister siobhan came along four years after his birth, and then their sister bryna joined a year after that. while michael and saorise are still not necessarily a romantic partnership, their marriage holds strong and their family remains tight knit.
the smell of burning candles late at night, echoing laughter in an otherwise quiet room, smudged ink, lingering sweetness of butterbeer, a cheshire cat grin, crunching of snow under heavy footsteps, long empty hallways, distant piano playing, flushed cheeks from flying
aaaaaand here are some possible connections im looking for!! if youre up for plotting, like this post or message be on @avalcns !!
Hello, my name is captain and i've watched to all the boys i've loved before four times so far. what have you done for the planet today ?
i'm equally excited and nervous as h*ck to bring my first character into this because wowwww this has been around for a long time and you probably all know each other and i've gone into hiding from roleplaying months ago. what is up with the super tiny gifs. can somebody clarify that for me.
anyway i'm gonna try and keep this fairly simple bc i do have a page that goes into more detail about zach and a page for connections ! i'm captain, as mentioned, and i go by they/them pronouns. i'm 21 and my timezone is nzst, aka gmt+12, and you are all probably asleep as i write this.
NOW FOR THE STAR OF THE SHOW ZACHARIAH LEVASSEUR JUNIOR
zach's family owns this ridiculous castle in the south of france and are a very prestigious pureblood family ( any characters with french backgrounds ? hit me upppp )
which is just by this seaside wizard village which is not really big or important but most families have been there for centuries, much like the levasseurs, and it's really quite nice and peaceful there
his family offered refuge to british muggleborns during the wizarding war and his older brother lost a leg fighting alongside the order so they're kinda nice i guess
but zach is the black sheep because he doesn't really do anything important and doesn't have great ambitions. he just likes to play quidditch and write
his writing is his biggest secret and he doesn't let anyone figure out that he's a big softie. because he tries to blend in as much as he can
all his problems are poor little rich kid problems
he also has a little sister that goes to beauxbatons
he was the first in the family to attend hogwarts because his parents don't really care what he does since they have no expectations he'll become anything grand and he wanted to be the furthest away from his family as possible
he's smart but lazy in a jess mariano way. sits in the back of the class looking bored or half asleep but gives a perfect answer every time he's caught by surprise by the professors
what's he doing at ravenclaw ? well wouldn't he like to know
if i could describe zach in a vine it would be this one
WOTCHER! There goes LAURA, who still rocks GRYFFINDOR colors on the sly. I hear their housemates used to call them LULU. Loads of wizarding folk are fond of how CAPTIVATING and ARDENT they are. Then again, others have referred to them as a common goblin when they act FUTILE and CALLOW. Ever since the TWENTY year old graduated from Hogwarts in 1987, they’ve found themselves hanging around HOGSMEADE, but word has it STIRLING, SCOTLAND is their stomping grounds. The SUMNER family likes to brag that ever since they’ve become a HAIRDRESSER AT SUNNY AND SHEARS, they’re raking in the galleons, but I reckon only Gringotts knows the truth. I heard that one time, they stumbled onto a muggle street by mistake; someone asked if their name was AISHA DEE, though they haven’t the faintest idea who that is.
took me about what, a week to show my ass again with a new muse ? well ! this is captain btw, this non-binary bitch who also plays zach levasseur.
literally the only person who calls her laura is her mum. lulu is more than fine
lulu is a muggleborn witch who graduated from hoggy woggy hogwarts two years ago. tbh no one ever thought he had a promising future ahead of her, and well, she sure did. just maybe not in what everyone else considered a serious field
her father is an immigrant from zimbabwe and her mother is a scottish lass. her stepdad, however, is a hufflepuff alumni. she is an only child and has a great relationship with all of them, even though they don't have a great relationship with each other
her stepdad was kinda disappointed when she was selected into gryffindor instead of his house, but proud nonetheless. her mother just loves that she doesn't have to do chores now that she married a wizard. her dad is still confused after nine years, but he still goes on yearly trips with lulu to visit his family in zimbabwe and is very open-minded when she asks to take a detour to visit local wix or collect some bizarre plants
she's very gifted in herbology and potions, but to snape's dismay she puts all her efforts into cosmetics. even he could admit she was incredibly talented and was utterly disappointed when she showed no interest in bottle fame and whatnot, only in getting her curls to the perfect moisture level
her mother used to be a makeup artist, so that's where she gets her passion for beauty. she just thinks the world would be a better place if it was a prettier place
she can be quite infantile and seem shallow, but she's very smart and fiercely loyal
one of her hidden talents is how great she is at duelling
she had a few odd jobs before settling at sunny and shears. she worked at florean fortescue's as an ice cream scooper, at the three broomsticks as a barmaid, as a private potions tutor... the list goes on. one of her private customers put in a good word for her at the salon, and she got the job as well as a place to sell her products. she now has a faithful clientele and the job of her dreams
not quite the job of her dreams because ideally she'd like to launch her own beauty business, but it's the perfect job for a twenty year old with great ambitions
shall we get to connections ?
SOME PLOT IDEAS:
the private customer that got her the job at sunny and shears ( 1 )
heyooo, it’s ya girl kelly, back at it again with another muse. so for some of you, y’all remember when i had helen but priyanka chopra was her fc fdsufod, but now she’s back with a different fc !!
WOTCHER! There goes HELEN, who still rocks SLYTHERIN colors on the sly. I hear their housemates used to call them H/HEL. Loads of wizarding folk are fond of how QUICK-WITTED and OBSERVANT they are. Then again, others have referred to them as a common goblin when they act APATHETIC and LACKADAISICAL. Ever since the THIRTY-THREE year old graduated from Hogwarts in 1974, they’ve found themselves hanging around LONDON, ENGLAND, but word has it OXFORD, ENGLAND is their stomping grounds. The XUN family likes to brag that ever since they’ve become a HEAD OF THE AUROR OFFICE FOR THE MINISTRY OF MAGIC, they’re raking in the galleons, but I reckon only Gringotts knows the truth. I heard that one time, they stumbled onto a muggle street by mistake; someone asked if their name was GEMMA CHAN, though they haven’t the faintest idea who that is.
daughter of amelia and brendon xun
raised in oxford, england mainly by her father with the help of her grandparents on both sides of her family.
at the age of seven, her mother passed. she doesn’t really have many memories of her mother, other than the ones her father tells her
half-blood status (half-blood father and mother)
her grandparents and great-grandparents fled china before the cultural revolution. they’d heard talks about it going around in the muggle world and left for fear that they didn’t know how it would affect wizarding china.
granted, wizarding china mainly consisted of passing down magic through master and apprentice type training. however, some areas in china were more developed than others.
both her grandparents and great-grandparents studied magic through a means of apprenticeship that was kept within the family.
because the means of learning was through apprenticeship, the xun family has kept a well documented grimoire that’s passed down from generation to generation. however, additions to the xun grimoire have temporarily stopped when the xuns relocated to britain.
her family had taken bets to see which house she’d be sorted into when she started hogwarts. a good majority believed she would’ve been in ravenclaw, but she surprised everyone when the hat sorted her into slytherin.
during schooling, she’s always held a fascination with divination. it has to do with the fact that chinese astrology has a heavy focus on divination of the future.
financially, they are not poor. the xun family resides in the upper middle class. they are fairly well off.
after graduating in 1974, she dove straight into auror training. three years later, she proved to be a skillful auror on and off the field. and by 1984, she became head of the auror office at the age of 28
she’s been head of the auror office for five years now
we love a lady in power, smash the patriarchy
vice: scotch, whisky, alcohol
just a lil something to take the edge off
super nonchalant, can sometimes come off as a bit blunt
the type of boss to treat her employees equally and equitably
aesthetic: heels clicking against the floor miranda priestly style b/c wow a LOOK !
anyways, this is all i got so far. again, i’ve revamped helen, slightly so feel free to hmu on discord ( galateia#9836 ) or like this post if you wanna plot !
MERLIN’S BEARD! Did you see DAVOS, also known as DAV / WHITBY rocking the SLYTHERIN colors in class today? How they manage to look so fit, while studying their arse off during their SEVENTH YEAR of schooling, is beyond me. The SEVENTEEN year old student is certainly making the WHITBY family proud, aren’t they? One time, I heard someone say they look a lot like some muggle, REECE KING – whoever that is. (c, she/her, 20+, ast.) ++ transfer from ilvermorny! ++ 1/2 siren!
here we go again ! unfortunately due to muse issues, i decided to drop soleil and rework the parts of her history that i liked and create a new character. so here is my sweet, summer child, davos mare whitby! PSA IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR THE SIREN MYTHOLOGY I GOT YOU COVERED, Y’ALL. CLICK HERE TO GO!
AESTHETIC PROSE.
rocks skipped across the black lake, the smell of citrus, dark chocolates, the scratch of a record ending, circle-rimmed glasses teetering precariously, and the lingering scent of smoke.
BACK STORY.
davos grew up in a single parent household. his father, arturo, fell in love with a siren. or rather, fell victim to her song. he had no idea that davos even existed until he was dropped on their doorstep with nothing but a note to explain his presence. he didn’t even know she was a siren when they met. not at first. arturo was never married so news of davos’ birth was kept quiet. in fact, no one even knew he existed until his sixth birthday. he was raised by a nanny by the name of constance, the woman a maternal figure in his life. she was mid-thirties, a squib from a reputable wizarding family whose patriarch worked with arturo at the m.a.c.u.s.a. both were secrets the family didn’t talk about, which bonded them instantly.
speaking of his father, his father is arturo ronan whitby. or better known as the current president of the m.a.c.u.s.a. he was elected into office in 1982 and has been serving ever since. to the public, he spun a ridiculous story about davos’ mother dying during childbirth, leaving him a heartbroken single father who only had his son’s best interests at heart. they’d wanted privacy, which was why he’d kept him hidden away for most of his life. given that he’d lived most of his young life hidden from the world, it had been a shock to the system for davos when his father had suddenly given him free reign. while he didn’t always see eye to eye with the man, he enjoyed the newfound freedom.
the relationship between davos and his father is ... strained, to say the least. arturo wasn’t the kind of person who ever wanted kids, and suffice to say he wasn’t exactly expecting to be a father until davos kind of just showed up, he’d smiled through the early years as davos’ doting grandmother had spoiled him rotten, his affections waning shortly after she passed. arturo’s resignement to life as a parent didn’t go unnoticed by davos, but the boy doesn’t bring it up. they’ve never been a very care-y and share-y family.
while davos never really missed out on not having a mother, he has always wondered where he comes from. where he inherited his looks, and a cursed song that he often didn’t know what to do with. it took years for him to figure out what he was, or what he thought he was, because artruro sure didn’t want to talk about it. constance helped him research as best she could but with limited resources, they could only find so much.
in school, davos was someone that people gravitated towards instinctively. he was charismatic and his father was in a position of power. it also didn’t help that, while he didn’t adopt the traditional siren characteristics from his mother like the need to live and breathe underwater, his voice was capable of eliciting reactions from those around him. people were more inclined to do what he said, hanging on to his every word in the courtyard. he was always lousy with friends, no shortage of people clamoring to spend time with him. it led him to question whether those friendships were real, especially given what he deduced about his parentage. a few passive aggressive comments from his father over the years, coupled with the reactions he drew, had led him to dig into his past as much as he could. while he’d originally thought he might be part veela given his looks and influence, there was something that drew him to the sea and had him searching elsewhere. he’d known without knowing that veela wasn’t right. another clue was that davos was was constantly being told NOT to sing by his father for threat of what would happen if he did. When he did, he was often punished for it.
at the end of his fifth year at ilvermorny, davos was expelled. after finding out that his boyfriend had only been seeing him to snag a coveted internship at the MACUSA, the wizard had tried to blow him up on school grounds. it had been an uncharacteristically aggressive move for the wizard who was usually quite calm, driven to rage almost instantly as the betrayal cut deep. maybe it was because he’d thought the relationship was real, or because he’d been in love for the first time ever, but thankfully a professor had grabbed his hand in time and the curse ended up tearing apart the courtyard, not his boyfriend’s limbs. with his father’s influence at play, the expulsion was the worst of his troubles. were he not careful, he could have found himself shipped off to azkaban for attempted murder. in the moment, davos hadn’t cared. all he’d seen was red, anger too potent. while it took a lot to anger him, he’d really thought that this relationship was the one true, legitimate, relationship in his life. jokes on him!
arturo shipped davos off to live with his aunt helena for his last two years of school. he was forced to leave his friends, constance, and his life behind. TBH he’s not very happy about it. he attended hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry and was sorted into slytherin. that he loved. the fact that his bedroom overlooks the sea has actually calmed him down in terms of his resentment. it’s not uncommon to see him out by the lake, talking to the giant squid or doing his homework. additionally, he joined the hogwarts house team as a chaser in the ‘88-’89 school year. there was something about flying at top speed and throwing yourself about to catch the quaffle that brought a rush of adrenaline and a feeling that he’d never been able to capture on the ground. he aspires to one day live up in the sky; his windows overlooking the clouds.
PERSONALITY
he’s very sarcastic and kind of glib. you’re definitely not going to get a lot of smiles from him unless he gets to know you. he constantly looks sullen, or unimpressed, but that’s just his face. he smiles when he wants to. sometimes it’s even genuine.
he laughs. a lot. sure, it’s usually at the expense of someone else, but still. his laugh is very deep, very difficult to mask, and could brighten up even the stormiest of moods.
honestly he’s a pretty chill guy unless you piss him off. when he’s mad, it’s really bad, but it takes a lot to get him there. he’s also more likely to hit you with something than to throw a curse. he really likes throwing rocks with his wand and seeing how much distance he can cover. it’s become a bit of a hobby. bonus points if it hits a first year.
CONNECTIONS
someone who gave him the tour of the castle.
fwb.
dormmates.
potions partner.
quidditch rival (friendly)
enemy
unrequited crush
polyship
family friends
summer friends
summer fling
if you are up for filling any of these connections or want to plot pls hmu !!! also if we have previous connections it’ll be easier to do starters for the event so yeeeet.
MERLIN’S BEARD! Did you see SABINA, also known as SAB rocking the GRYFFINDOR house colors in class today? How they manage to look so fit, while studying their arse off during their SEVENTH YEAR of schooling, is beyond me. The EIGHTEEN year old student is certainly making the RUSH family proud, aren’t they? One time, I heard someone say they look a lot like some muggle, SAMMY ROBINSON– whoever that is. (sunny, she/her, 20, est.)
hey there !! my name is sunny and i’m here with my baby sabina ! i would a d o r e getting some connections and plots going (i’ll make a page for those at some point) but for now if you’re down for them throw this post a like and i’ll appear in your dms shortly!
for now, here’s some info on sab:
halfblood.
leo baby-- born august 1.
heterosexual.
she’s a metamorphmagus but only her closest friends know that-- she likes to keep her ability on the hush hush so that she can screw with people.
her family is also notorious for being split down the middle when it comes to the dark lord. half of them hate his guts while the other half sides with him.
she’s neutral right as of right now when it comes to choosing a side.
she’ll usually start out with being nice to someone but she’s hard at trusting people so she can be a little mean sometimes.
BIG troublemaker energy.
haven’t decided on clubs yet.
thrives off of honeydukes sweets.
this is all i can muster up for her atm <3 can’t wait to get started with you guys !!
