Introductions, Please!

[Dixie Holden-Greene]

Alright, well, I figured with a community of so many characters and so many members, it would be nice to get to know the members and characters a bit. This way we can always check back here for a reference to a name, or to see if we ever want to plot with another character. This also helps new members feel established and give them a chance to introduce themselves. You can always edit your form if you feel like changing anything later on. So I'll start, yes?

The Me
Name

Caitlin, but I go by Cait

Age

I am now officially 18!

A Bit About Me

I live in Kentucky, though I wasn't born here – Washington's my place of birth if you wanted to know. I tend to write all the time, and it's kind of bothersome when I'm supposed to be doing papers instead of posting. I have a younger sister, and I live with my parents – as I will well into college until I have enough money to support myself in a mini-apartment somewhere in town. I'm a senior in HS, about to graduate, and then I'm going to a local university to earn my degree for teaching.. I don't know what grade I want to teach anymore, but it started out as high school – now I'm thinking elementary. It's quite a difference, but only time will tell.

The Characters
Dixie Holden-Greene

Dixie is my probably my most favorite character. I made her about 2 years or so ago, and she quickly fell into a plot with Adam Greene. Check out Lovefool if you want to read something that I'm quite proud of, and I think is very entertaining. She's a mother, who's going through a rough time right now, but she's still very amiable. She's the president of a fashion company, and best friends with Raelee Gray (another one of my characters). Sometimes Dix can be snarky and belligerent, but on the flip side she is a great person to be around. She doesn't post with many students except for Sierra Greene and Violette Silva – one being her sister-in-law and the other being the manager of her shop in Hogsmeade.

Raelee Gray

Rae comes to a close second when it comes to favorite characters of mine. She's the best friend of Dixie's, runs her own record label (SplatteRecords – read, Splatter Records), and she is also a mother, but of a toddler who isn't biologically hers. She is the guardian of Madeline Daniels after Maddie's father, Clay, died from a freak mugging. She lives in Italy with Ashley and Elina Hill, sisters who have fast become good friends. As for her personality; well, Rae is somewhat the opposite of Dixie. Where Dixie is level headed, Rae tends to freak herself out way too easily. She psyches herself into states of mind where she doesn't really comprehend what's going on. On a good day (which is most days), she's mellow and laid back. As a mother, though, she's somewhat strict; not wanting Maddie to have too many freedoms as she had when she was a child.

Danelle Gregory H6

Danelle is my resident student (for now!). She's a Huff sixth year, and oh my God, she's a handful. She's a ball of energy, but she's got quite an attitude to go along with it. Just check out Pantomime with Jack in the lounge, if you don't believe me. She's loyal to her friends, and she doesn't fall into relationships that easily at all. But there is a certain someone she might be willing to fall for. Currently she isn't in any plots, but I'm totally willing to get her involved in some – so if you're interested PM me. I won't do a relationship one, though, because that's pretty much lined up.

Violette Silva S6[/b]

Lette's my resident Slytherin at the moment. She's not your average Slytherin. She doesn't believe in blood divisions, but she does believe in being superior in other ways. She's intelligent, so much so that she's rather awkward in social situations. She doesn't open up to other people easily because she doesn't thing she has the need to. Her younger brother Logan is a 4th year Hufflepuff, and he' probably the one person she gets along with at all in this school. She doesn't need friends, but she does enjoy a good banter from time to time. She doesn't need a relationship either, because there's a plot lined up. But plenty of antagonists are needed.

The Rest
So, there's nothing much more to say except that I have like 9 other characters in my head now and hopefully will be getting a fraction of them in the future. I have MSN ([e-mail]) and you can always PM me here on all three of my accounts, but I check Dixie's most often.

That's it!

Oh, and, when/if you fill this out (because it isn't mandatory and you don't have to give out any information you don't want to) you don't have to use my form. But feel free to.

[Seana Melling S7]

I’ll go next, cause I’m always interested in reading about people, might as well add some useless information about myself as well.

A Bit About Me

I live with my grandmother in Colorado, USA. I’ve attended 4 years of college and am attempting to enter a community college just to obtain the last few credits I need to graduate with a BA in Communications & Theatre. I’ve spent most of my life dreaming about becoming a famous actress and yes have even practiced my speech for the Oscars. I just recently became an aunt and am enjoying it thoroughly. I spend ¾ of my time procrastinating and the ¼ percent of my time that I’m not procrastinating I’m hardly accomplishing what I’m supposed to be doing. I love to read, write (in fact I am currently working on three novels), and probably above all else I love to act. I also play and write music when I find the inspiration to do so; instruments that I can play are: clarinet, saxophone, drums, flute, piano, and I mess around on the guitar. I also love to sing, though I find I don’t have the ear for it…much to my parent’s chagrin. What else? Oh I have every intention of moving to Los Angeles within the next 5 years to advance my acting career…and hopefully one day one of ya’all will be using my face for one of your characters. *grins*

The Characters (in order of creation date)


Andrew Alex Thornton

No Drew was not my first created Gryffindor, nor my first created character...however he is probably the most like me in his hyperactive ways...beside Mikayla. He's reckless, fun-loving, and all together optimistic. He was muggle-born and loves it, thinking he has the best of both worlds. He enjoys any thing and everything, especially right now as his band has just taken off and he's turned into a household name among both muggles and wizards. He absolutely loves it.

Ruby Rhain Lehane S6

This bad girl is the worst of my Slytherins. Her vehemence for muggles can run no deeper as her mother was imprisoned because of them. She has every intention of destroying the very world that has been built and creating something far better. A place in which wizards do not have to hide who they are…a better world to say the least. Of course she does not travel this path alone, as her twin brother is at her side a true blessing. However, more than a handful does not know this side of her as their ways are fueled by subterfuge and manipulation. There’s more to her than meets the eye so be cautious. Remember those that dare to wander into a spider’s web seldom leave in one piece.

Josephine Faith Bowman S5

Jo was never meant to turn out as bad as she is. Her world crashed and burned before her eyes when her sister, Brianna Bowman, died of cancer. The only thing that matters in her life right now is her next fix. She’ll do anything to keep from feeling the pain that she’s locked up inside her…the guilt. She believes it’s her own fault for her sister’s death and it has driven her insane to say the least.

Stephen Michael Donahue S5

Now here’s an unusual sight…a 17-year-old 5th year…and he’s never failed a year? That’s right…Stephen is a character spawned from insanity. No, really he is. He suffers from Post-Traumatic Stress…a very severe case after he accidentally killed his father, who ironically was suffering from the same disease. His mother hardly speaks to him though she writes every so often to tell him that she ‘loves him’, she’s ‘just trying to figure things out.’ Stephen doesn’t care about anybody, but himself, and he doesn’t mind telling admitting to that either.

Mikayla Marie Moon G7

The only Gryffindor that I’ve ever had for any length of time, minus Drew. This girl here is fun-loving and adorable. Her family means everything to her and her friends are family to her. She’s fierce, courageous, and adventurous. There’s nothing that she doesn’t want to try and her daredevil and prankster attitude gets her into more trouble than any Slytherin possibly could, but she loves it all the same.

Merrick Maylou Marr S7

Angry, competitive, and self-obsessed Merrick hardly has time to pay attention to anyone other than himself. He goes through women like he goes through socks. They mean very little to him and is perhaps one of the reasons why he acts like a complete jerk to most of the people that know him. He doesn’t care about anyone…or appears as he doesn’t. He also refuses to do something just because someone else said to do it. Merrick is his own person and plans on doing whatever he pleases, even if it means flying his broom into the Whomping Willow to win a competition.

Seana Jade Melling S7

Seductive, sinful, and sinister, Seana is every characteristic of the perfect Slytherin. She cares only for the games that can be played and little for the ones behind it. Though she is madly in love with her boyfriend, Landon, she doesn’t mind spending energy on boys or girls that are not he. She is more of a snake than a lot of people, as is her twin sister. However, she is more merciful than her sister, but that is not saying much. Her games mean everything to her and without them she is simply a silly girl with a wand.

The Rest

As most of you have noticed I have more Slytherins than anything and there’s not much I can say against that. I have a difficult time playing characters that do not hold a bit of darkness to them…though I supposed a good character to create would be a character with darkness in them that is not a Slytherin. Anyhow, if you are ever in need of an evil character for a plot I’m not too far away and I’d be more than happy to do it. Any questions don’t hesitate to contact me by PM here at the site or at [e-mail].

[Esmeralda Mendez]

Well hello Cait. We've definitely talked before, but I guess its only formal to introduce myself anyway. Anyhoo, I think it's really cool you want to be a teacher. I don't have the patience for it, but good luck! ;D Oh and I've got to say, I love reading all your posts. Especially Danelle's. Yeah, I'm keeping up with Pantomime. Despite the fact that my character is dating Jack, I definitely think he's being an ass. (sorry Justin, but it's true! )

EDIT: Mandi, I just finished reading your post. I love your cynical Slytherins! ;D Lol I'm serious though. I think my favorite out of all of them is Jo...she kinda reminds me of Ezzie in a way only much darker I guess. Anyway, I can't wait to see you on the Oscars in a few years and I'm glad to see I'm not the only one working on 2485068359000000 projects at once. Ok that's a lie. You're working on three novels, and I'm the crazy fool who's attempting four...no wait. Five novels and a poetry book while juggling this wonderfully addicting site all at the same time.

The Me.

Name

Natalie, but I'd rather Ezzie or Nat.

Age

Fifteen. Sixteen in just two months! (Having a sweet 16, counting down the days. :

A Bit About Me

I was born a city girl in Manhattan, NY but now I'm going mad in the suburbs. I'm random and perpetually hyper thanks to my horrible addiction to red bull (which I gave up for lent thankyouverymuch ) and I'm an everything addict. Ok. No. That sounded wrong. I meant that I'm addicted to a lot of normal stuff. Chocolate, energy drinks, oh and this site. Yeah. Much like dear Cait there, I can't get enough of this place either. Like I'm physically incapable of staying away. I've tried, but I'm lucky if I can get in a good twenty-four hours without signing in. Umm lets see what else...oh yeah. Family. I'm the oldest of three, which really isn't as fun as it sounds. In George Lopez's words (LOVE him) I'm like the canary in the coal mine. I've got a younger sister who's a freshman in high school and she's in Texas, but then I've got my seven year old little brother who's here in NY with me. My parents are the oddest, weirdest people to walk the planet. I have to deal with both the generation gap (they're OLD) and the culture differences (both my parents were born and raised in the Dominican Republic, so they grew up just a bit differently than I am) which is really really fun. ...Not really. I've always got plot ideas in my head and I love helping people with that sort of thing, so if anyone needs some crazy, over-the-top drama that probably belongs in a soap opera, send me a pm. I'd be glad to help.

The Characters.



Ezzie Mendez

Ezzie's my very first and well...I don't wanna say my favorite because then I'd honestly feel bad for all my others, but she's definitely the one I almost always have inspiration for. I'm not saying I've ever been a bulimic pop star with a hot rock star boyfriend, but I definitely relate to Ezzie the most. Well actually I'm a mixture of Riley and Ezzie. But anywho, Ezzie is sweet, extremely understanding, and really really fun. She's best friends with a pop star and a guitarist and she's dating a very controversial rock star who's leading her down a very risky path. She's really great but she has this bad habit of not knowing when to keep her mouth shut, especially in front of the press.


Riley Coxen

Another one of my recent favorites, though I swear I love all my children characters the same. She's a hot headed Gryffindor who hates being told what to do. She used to be a tomboy, but after her father's death she's just trying to find herself. Romantically, she's falling pretty quick for an older Slytherin boy named Jack Reid...something her mother isn't too happy about. She's one of those 'popular girls' of her house. Her friends call themselves the Godric's Daughters and she's very proud to be in such a group.



Angela Merciano

Angela is part of my most recent and most intriguing plot, Forbidden Fairytales. I've worked really hard on this family feud/mafia plot, and it's finally starting to pay off. Angela is pretty much a witch. She only has two things on her mind: joining her little "family business" and eventually causing the death of every Hemingway alive. Yeah, she's kind of violent. She's the only genuinely racist character I have, but that's only because her family forces her to be. She's only allowed to date purebloods with Italian or Spanish blood in them who have interest in joining her grandfather's Cavalieri gang. She doesn't normally post with those outside her plot, but I'm really looking for her to have a sort of protégé that's outside her plot. If there are any takers, send me a pm.



Aviva Morgan

Well, Aviva is now my only graduate since I dropped little Julie. She's the polar opposite of me, but somehow I manage to pull it off. She's stern and very very focused on her work. She's a homicide detective who has recently been assigned a new partner. She doesn't believe in romance or any sort of crap like that since she had her heart broken by her first and only love. She's adjusting, but she's got a lot of pain bottled up inside her that she has yet to deal with. Other than the plot she's got going, she's got virtually no friends. I'd like to change that though, so if there are any Grads looking for a post, you know where to find me!



Carson McGreggor

Carson is the only guy I've ever been able to succesfully play. I found it kind of hard to get into the head of anyone else. But then again, I guess that doesn't really count because he always seems sort of like a really manly chick in my eyes, but that's beside the point. He's extremely sensitive, but instead of getting upset about things, he just gets really really angry. I should really see to putting him in some anger management classes eventually, but I think he's pretty content with his popstar girlfriend Casey Allen for now. Other than his little anger problem and his bad habit for trying to be everyone's personal bodyguard, he's a really really sweet guy.



Olivia Dawson

Olivia is my crazy side. No doubt about it. She's the determined, sneaky, plotting and conniving ex-girlfriend inside of me that's just begging to come out and play. Olivia is the perfect image of rebellion who has become pretty much obsessed with securing her future. I do kind of feel bad for her even though I really love Cassie and her character. I mean, Cass got Julian Fallon, the love of Olivia's life. I really hope she ends up meeting a nice guy to help her get over this whole Julian thing. Until then, I'm perfectly content with having her go mad with plans to destroy Cassandra and Julian's marriage.


The Rest.

Well I don't really think there is much else. Umm let's see...I love love love plotting so seriously if you've got any ideas your best bet is to get me by pm, preferably through Ezzie's account, though any will do. Oh yeah. One more thing. I'm sorry if my wild craziness scares you all a bit. Most people just learn to ignore it after awhile. I'm not that weird, I'm actually fairly normal from time to time.

[Drake Manning]

The Me
Name

Adam. You can call me Kennedy or Drake, seeing that they were/are my most prominent staff accounts.

Age

23. Woo for us older folk!

A Bit About Me

I'm a full time student and have been for as long as I can remember. All that will change though at the end of this year when I finish my Master's Degree in Education. I am going for Elementary School Counseling, but I will bet money that I eventually settle as being a teacher. Not sure what age group or subject, but it's just where I see my future going. I live with my parents for now, but in May of this year, I will be moving into an apartment with my wonderful wife to be, Kara! I super excited for the wedding. I have 2 jobs right now, one at an amusement park as a food and beverage supervisor, and the other is a manager at a party supply store. In my free time (what little that I have), I obviously enjoy writing. However, I spend a lot of time playing online reality games, watching and collecting television series, and just having a good time with my friends. If you want to know more, catch me on MSN or PM me. I love to talk on the internet and meet new people.

The Characters (In no relevant order)
Drake Manning

Drake is by far the darkest character that I play. He's not my only Slytherin, but unlike Mandi, not all of my Slytherins are so dark and stereotypical of the Slytherin house. But, Drake, of all of them, fits the house the best. He's an alcoholic, a habit he picked up at the young age of 15 or 16, and he has lived a life that involved one girl after another. Deep down, he's in so much pain that he simply tries to cover it up with his booze and women. That all changed (for the most part) when India Nightingale and Brianna Bowman entered his life. Both girls caught him in ways he'd never been caught before, and.... well, you'll have to read his plot Drinking With the Devil if you want to learn more. Drake is so unlike me, but I love playing him nonetheless. He can be a challenge, but it's a lot of fun to write him.

Adam Greene

I started playing him as a 7th year Slytherin, and now he's the professor of Ancient Runes and Arithmancy at Hogwarts. Of all my characters, I relate to his personality the most. His history is quite complicated though, nothing like my own life. Adam has had enough drama in his life to fill a daytime soap opera, but he keeps bouncing back from one disaster after another. Amidst a critical accident, many break ups and make ups, marriage and divorce, and currently fatherhood, Adam has had his hands full. He's part of Lovefool, the longest running plot that's currently still going on the site, and I hope he'll be around for many more years. He has a lot of ties with other characters on the site, but he's willing to post with new characters as well. He's the type of professor who would enjoy chattig with his students, so let me know if you want to post with him.

Sierra Greene

Adam's younger sister, Sierra has also endured some of the same hardships and drama as her older brother. Though she doesn't have a relationship history as complicated as Adam, the two have stuck together in their own hurdles of life. Sierra, like Adam, isn't your typical Slytherin. They are both very ambitious, but both are very kind and courteous compared to many of the others who share the Slytherin bond. Sierra is a hard worker, and she's quite mature for her age. She might surprise you, but at the end of the day she's just a girl who's still trying to find her place. She has a lot to learn, and she's open for what life throws her way. She's currently without a romantic interest, and it's probably about the time that she'd be starting to look for one. If you're interested, let me know!

Finn Miles

Finn is my fun-loving random character. He's a jokester and a tried and true Hufflepuff. He values loyalty and friends, and he's never too serious. He'll give anyone multiple chances, and he believes that everyone has some good in them. He grew up in a Quidditch family, so it runs in his blood. If there's one distinct thing about him though, it's that he is scared to death of loving. It's a commitment he's not ready to make. Though he's quite social, he often hides his deepest thoughts and feelings. He has many friends, but has yet to find the one person that he truly trusts enough to let them in the entire way. He's always up for meeting new people and having a good time. Hit me up for a post with him if you want something light and fun.

Ephraim Eades

Ephraim and Finn are first cousins. They act more like brothers at times, and the two of them are fairly close. Though both are fun-loving and fairly laid back, Ephraim is more of a realist than Finn. Ephraim is a helper. He loves to help others and see them succeed. A bit more reserved than Finn, Ephraim still has his moments of charm and sociality. He's at the stage where he's really looking to start to line up his future. He works hard at all he does, and takes things seriously for the most part. He smiles a lot and believes that everyone deserves to be happy. He's a newer character of mine, so he's still developing for me. Probably the hardest character of mine to post with (it's the Ravenclaw curse I have... woe is me... )

Scott Ryder

Scott is my only adopted character. When I say adopted, I mean that the blueprint for him was created by someone else, and then I took him as my own with the basic guidelines of his personality lined up. He's changed a lot, and I'm sure he's far from what he was supposed to be, but he's still rather developed nonetheless. A lot like me i the area of personality, Scott is rather quiet and laid back. He's not exactly shy, but he's not one to lead a crowd or thrive in the center of attention. Scott values friendship quite highly, and he's a big family man as well. Currently, he's learning what it means to endure trials of friendship, and there is a lot of confusion in his life right now. He's a bit hard for me to post outside of his plot and Quidditch, but I am looking for a possible long-term relationship with someone. I just don't know if Scott has found someone he truly connects with yet. Maybe he never will...

Kennedy Valak

Kennedy is my longest lived character. Only two characters were ever created by me before Kennedy, and neither of them were significant or lasting. He's really what I consider my beginning on this site, and, like Adam, he's been through a lot. Also, for Kennedy, I fast-forwarded from his 6th year to seven years beyond his graduation. This was a bit hard, but it's getting easier as I go along with him. He's somewhat dark (not as dark as Drake), and right now he's just trying to put back the pieces of his life after being imprisoned in Azkaban for seven years after being accused of murdering his father. It was self-defense, however, hence his release. He has a daughter, but currently things aren't looking to be in his favour. His ex girlfriend and mother of his daughter, Fiona (O'Reilly) Donnelly is the person he trusted most. Needless to say, they have a lot of rebuilding to do if they are to ever be together again. I don't post Kennedy much anymore, but he's still here.

Kailyn Valak

Above all else, Kailyn is a spoiled brat. She lives like she's a princess and the world owes her everything. She's quite shallow, and one-dimensional. In time though, a lot f that will change. She has the most to learn of all my characters, and once her world starts to fall apart, she'll quickly realize this. Honestly, I don't recommend posting with her to anybody, unless you are up for her bitterness and spite. She's probably the hardest and easiest character for me to play. She's easy, in that she's so one-dimensional, but she's hard for me because I am still trying to make her original and memorable. Nobody likes a one-dimensional character for very long.

Ben O'Leary

I put Ben last, well... because he's been avoiding me lately. With the loss of some major players in his plot, Ben's future is hard to predict. He is a lot like Finn, just a bit older and somewhat pathetic at times. He's a great guy, but one can't help but feel bad for him or laugh at him at times. He works as a Healer at St Mungo's, and his friendship with fellow Healers Heidi and Maribeth is priceless. I/We've had so much in store for these characters, but the actual following through part has been hard. Hopefully there is a future for Ben, but it's kind of up in the air at this point.

The Rest
Aside from all that, I can say that this site has meant so much to me in the past 3+ years. I've put countless hours into the writing and the maintaining of staff duties, but I've loved probably 90% of it. Yes, there are times when it's hard and quite frustrating, but I couldn't live without it, I don't think. I absolutely adore all of the friends I've made on this site, and I hope to make many more. All new members should never hesitate to contact any of the older members or staff members. We were all new at once, and we all love to help. I speak for myself and hopefully many others when I say that we welcome newcomers with open arms. Though we have our traditions and our inside jokes, we never want to make anybody feel unwelcome. Send us PMs, find us on MSN, or owl us if you want. Most of all, never hesitate to get involved. If you find a character or a plot you like, let the person know. It's hard to sometimes jump in with new characters, so finding plots and other characters which have already been established can be a big help. Many of the members here are always willing to change plans of plots to fit in new members and ideas.

With that said, enjoy your time here at 4 Houses. It's meant to be fun and entertaining. If you're not having fun, you're doing something wrong!

[Ariane Chan]

The Basics

Name

Vivien, but everyone calls me Viv.


Age

I turned 18 in January.


A Bit About Me

From: Manchester, England.
Occupation: About to start my first year of university.
Ethnicity: Chinese and bilingual.
Family: I'm in a family of four, with a kid brother four years my junior. He also happens to be my best friend.
Interests: Reading and writing, singing and music, TV, art.

Personality: I'm a fast-paced sorta person; I like rushing around with things to do. I like responsibility but can be disorganised and scatty, and my memory is often selective or acts like a sieve! I tend to be outwardly very cheerful and upbeat, and I'm very loud and hyperactive - I can never stop talking. Inside, I'm quite an internalised sort've person, and I do tend to be pessimistic, but I'm also pretty reasonable. I don't usually have a temper even though I am moody, but my dad and my brother are two people who always manage to annoy me so much I start screaming.

The Characters

Ariane 'Ari' Avril Chan: The Lonely
Ariane is my main account, but the only reason for that was because she fitted the staff lists at the time. Anyway, Ariane is a tough, independent and antisocial girl. She prefers solitude save for the company of her closest friends - her best friend Aurora and her little sister Harmony, both in Hufflepuff. Ariane is distant but she's not cold; she just doesn't believe in love after they ran away from their rejecting father. Then Ariane's life fell upside down with the murder of her mother and meeting the love of her life - Tristan MacCay. Despite the fact Tristan was a Slytherin and Ariane a Gryffindor, the two fell for each other. Then Tristan left, and Ariane was heartbroken. She's retreated into herself again, but she's slowly recovering and reaching out to Aurora once more. She's also beginning to come to terms with Jez Cuthbert's apparent obsession with her. The Gryffindor has been pranking her for over a year and, quite frankly, she's fed up. Ariane isn't afraid to take revenge on those who have hurt her or those she's loved, because she's fiercely protective and loyal.


Aurora 'Rora' Mireille Chan: The Smile
Aurora was based, at first, on me. She has my birthday, my family situation, my hometown, some of my characteristics, etc. But, in the end she's diverted a lot from myself and she's a lot more cheerful and happy than I am. She's always smiling, always making people laugh. She only wants to make others happy and she values the small things in life. Aurora doesn't really have a single bad bone within her. However, she has a sad, depressed side which she hides from most people. Sometimes she feels burdened with having to smile for other people all the time. Aurora takes it upon herself to be her best friend Ariane's support, but often finds it hard to let people support her in return. Aurora is a listener, a helper and a giver; never a taker. She isn't passionate but she is a true friend, and makes lots of friends because of her lack of judgement. Currently she's good friends with Kael Collins, another Hufflepuff, and his twin sister, Ravenclaw Lynne. Aurora has a lot in store for her, after many failed plots, and even though she'll endure a lot of hardship, I'm going to make sure she gets her happy ending - the one I want!


Seth Ashton Wright: The Insecure
Poor Seth. Well, he's my nerdy, gullible fool. He's loosely based off Seth Cohen from The O.C. and has led a distressing life. His father left his mother when his sister, Eva, was born, and had another daughter by another woman - right next door to him. Seth led a poor childhood and didn't know about his wizard heritage until Hogwarts. He had no friends for he was bullied throughout primary school, but then he met Chace Coxen, a Hufflepuff in his year, and life completely changed for Seth. He was accepted into the wealthy Coxen family and no more was he constantly bullied and taunted by the other students. Seth struggles to feel confident and often feels inadequate, but he's beginning to learn his worth through his best friend and Willow, his girlfriend, who he's liked since First Year (though they've now broken up). Seth knows he's insignificant but he has never sought the acceptance of people by begging, because even he has a little bit of pride. He's currently plotless, now Chace has been dropped, but we'll see what happens.


Theo Harrison Darke R7: The Perfection
My other young boy is quite the opposite of Seth. Confident, popular and the Captain of the Ravenclaw Quidditch team, Theo is my gay boy. He's been openly gay since Fifth Year, and the first person he told was Lori Leigh, his best friend. The Darkes and Leighs have been family-friends for years, and it just so happened Theo and Lori were born in the same hospital on the same day - and have been inseparable since. Theo is a perfectionist - he tries to do everything as well as he can and he seemingly has no flaws. He's friendly, nice and everyone likes him; he's a strong leader and loyal to his friends and family. Still, he has his flaws, and they've slowly been emerging under pressure - first, Lori's relationship with Scott Ryder has been hurting Theo a lot because he likes Scott romantically, and couldn't say anything; secondly, Theo has begun a relationship with Oscar Flynn, and although they have fallen in love, they are separated by many differences and Theo doesn't want the world - even Lori - to know about them. Eventually, Theo's perfectly constructed world will come tumbling down around him, and whether or not he can cope with losing his friends and loved ones is up to him.


India Nightingale S7: The Damaged
Scarred is another word to describe India. As my completely screwed up character, there are many things wrong with her. Firstly, she has many deeply ingrained fears: fear of rejection, fear of love and trust, fear of dependency, fear of fire, fear of mirrors and reflections, fear of herself... to name but a few. India's insecurities derive from a haunting past; her father was killed, her mother kidnapped, and her life completely changed. Her relationship with her identical twin sister, Skye, fell through when an accident led to Skye becoming mute, which shook India severely and caused her to feel so guilty she began to reject Skye. India led a miserable, lonely life for a decade; she's good at denying the truth to herself and is very stubborn. She pretended she was okay and that she didn't need anyone. Eventually, when the only person she thought she could trust - Duke - turned out to be the one who ruined her life, India's view of the world changed again. She is beginning to see her flaws and weaknesses, and accept them. Previously she had met Drake Manning, an older boy whom she had ended up playing a dangerous game with. She forgot him briefly, but has remembered him again. Now, though, Drake is trying not to want anything to do with her... but India is determined to make the most of her salvaged, broken life.


Dakota 'D' Padme Fox S6: The Seductress Avenger
D, as she calls herself, was quite the arrogant, spoilt brat. She grew up in a large family as the youngest child and also the only girl. Attention was heaped onto her and D loved it. She liked feeling special and has only ever known her own way. However, unlike normal spoilt people, what is even worse about D is she inherited the Fox cunning; not only did D get her way, but she always did it in a way no one realised they're doing it. She enjoyed giving orders to those she considered beneath her, waiting on her hand and foot like a queen, but she also enjoyed playing games with people; for her, it was the satisfaction of knowing she was in control. D is a very intelligent individual even though often she spent her time complaining, whinging and generally being very irritating. She had and has no true friends, though she has many useful acquaintances - Kailyn Valak and Josephine Bowman to name a few. As a part of the Queens of Slytherin, D lives up to the name of being infamous. Her family is wealthy, she is respected, and her goal in life is to become Minister of Magic. D would've stopped at nothing to achieve her ambitions, even if it meant stabbing her 'friends' in the back, but now that she's given birth to an unwanted child, D has completely changed; vengeful and broken, all she cares for is revenge on one Stephen Donahue.


Trinity Corona Bleu G6: The Individual
Trinity is one of my newest characters and inspired because of my other characters who are quite fussy with who they can post with! Trinity is headstrong and proud, a typical Gryffindor in the sense that she is loyal, confident and brave. She isn't scared of much - too fearless, sometimes she can be reckless and rash. She's also infamous for being blunt and breaking the rules. Her rebellious attitude stems from her desire to be different and not to conform to society; she likes being an individual and would never give her identity up for anyone. Her best friend and partner in crime is her step-brother, Eric, who is a Muggle. She has never known her father, Dacien, who is a famous and wealthy wizard aristocrat, and it is her goal to meet him one day. Trinity will approach anyone, talk to anyone, and although she's very open-minded and accepting, she has a deeply ingrained dislike of Slytherins. She loves Quidditch, and can be pretty aggressive when she wants to be and picks fights tactlessly. However, Trinity is a good person at heart; she isn't malicious, just a bit cheeky and likes to think outside the box.


Instructor Elliot Dean Campbell: The Gentleman
My newest character, Campbell, as he is better known, is a polite, posh 29-year-old working at the Ministry in the Department of Magical Transportation. He's excellent at his job, somewhat of a workaholic, and has recently become the new Apparition Instructor at Hogwarts. He graduated from Beauxbatons because his family migrated to France and he is bilingual. He's a very clever and intelligent individual; well-spoken and likeable, but he's a closed person - hence his divorce three years ago. Campbell can commit, he just isn't affectionate, and is content without a relationship. Very soon, his sexuality will be put to the test with the arrival of a new friend in his life - and I'm very much looking forward to it!

Dropped Characters

Harmony Lily Chan: The Innocent
Harmony was my first character, and is the younger sister of Ariane and cousin of Aurora. She's in Hufflepuff, currently in her sixth year (!), and if I were role-playing her right now, she would likely be close to confirming her romantic relationship with one Rex Carter, a Gryffindor. Rex is the opposite of her, and when they meant two years ago, they were complete opposites. Yet, they were instantly attracted to each other; Rex revelled in Harmony's purity, and Harmony in his daring and adventure. He helped to spice up her life, whilst she mellowed him from the rebellious, aggressive teen he was fast becoming due to a terrible past. The reason I dropped Harmony was because she was becoming boring; first characters rarely remain easy to role-play, and I'm glad I dropped her, though I had posted her over 200 times and she played a big role on the Quidditch team, so it was very difficult when I let her go.


Zara Phoenix: The Passion
Zara was the first of three characters I agreed to pick up for someone, and this was for Izy's Sapphire, Zara's Ravenclaw twin sister. Zara is a Gryffindor graduate and I dropped her in her seventh year. She's headstrong and her ambition is to become an Auror. When I dropped her, though, I had a feeling she was likely to pursue a career in professional Quidditch before she became an Auror, because Quidditch is the love of her life. Zara fell in love with a Luke Dallan in her a seventh year, a fellow Quidditch lover in Hufflepuff, but they had their ups and downs and the relationship didn't work out. That's largely why I dropped her; it didn't feel right without Luke any more, and I had always struggled to role-play an unoriginal character of mine. Zara could easily move on, but I'm afraid no other character came along who took her fancy.


Heidi Rebecca Fleming: The Strong
Heidi was my most successful 'pick-up' character. Adam asked me to join a plot somewhat similar to the TV show Grey's Anatomy, and so I made Heidi based on Izzie Stevens. She is a Ravenclaw graduate, and a successful one at that. After gaining top grades, she left to train as a Healer, and eventually became an intern at St Mungo's Hospital. Heidi's life was never easy; her father left when he learnt of his wife's magic heritage, and when she was sixteen, she fell pregnant due to a one-night stand. She later gave up her daughter, Rebecca, for adoption, and then discovered the identity of Rebecca's father - her Healer superior, Miguel. Before they could reconcile, however, Miguel died of illness, leaving Heidi devastated. Her best friend was Ben O'Leary, and Maribeth Grayson was another close Healer friend. I decided to drop Heidi not because she wasn't working; I loved role-playing her, but her plot never worked out, which frustrated me, and I was doing her no justice, so I gave her up. If given a good opportunity, she is the only character I would easily bring back.


Leah Cadence Matthews: The Intelligent
Leah was my third 'pick-up' character and the one I role-played the shortest time; I only posted her twice! This was mainly due to the fact her plot didn't work out. Still, it was fun whilst it lasted. Leah was a seventh-year Ravenclaw when I dropped her; an intelligent girl, albeit very unworldly and naive. Her cousin, Kiley, was opposite in that sense; whilst Leah tutored her in her subjects, Kiley would be teaching Leah about boyfriends and socialising. Leah is shy and introverted, but falls hard and fast, and is easily used and manipulated. She is perhaps the most outwardly vulnerable of the characters I have ever played on 4 Houses, though all of them have their weaknesses... except for Trinity!


Professor Hermione Jean Granger: The Haunted
Hermione was easily the hardest and least favourite character to role-play. Then again, she wasn't my own creation! As you all know, Hermione is Muggle-born and attended Hogwarts as a Gryffindor. There, she met her best friends, Harry Potter and Ron Weasley. In the fight against Lord Voldemort, Harry sacrificed his life and brought peace to the wizarding world. Only, Hermione fell apart at his death, choosing to isolate herself from everyone she cared for and became very depressed. In particular, despite their previous relationship, she broke away from Ron. Hermione shut herself in her house for a year, mourning her loss and feeling bitter towards a world that seemed not to care about Harry's courageous sacrifice. Eventually, Dumbledore offered Hermione the job of Transfiguration Professor, as he was retiring and Professor McGonagall was to become Headmistress. Hermione agreed after some persuading and began teaching at only twenty years old.

The Rest

A few things 4 Houses-related

- Magenta isn't my favourite colour, but it's the colour I myself and other people associate with me since it used to be my staff colour, so it's stuck with 4 Houses! My favourite colour is blue, and if I could choose all over again I would've chosen sea blue.

- I am involved in too many plots with these above characters even though I love them to bits. I love plotting, and I've learnt a lot about plotting over the last few years. Firstly, never plot ahead - never quite seems to work out, and if you're a perfectionist that'll irritate you to no end! Secondly, don't make people take on other characters, because often they either won't meet your expectations with that character or they don't get a feel for them. And thirdly, don't put couples together in a plot before you create and roleplay them - the chemistry isn't always there!

- I used to be on staff and left in Jan 09 because I was too busy. I still really miss it, but I'm happy not to have the responsibility anymore. I thoroughly enjoyed my two years there and hope I can still give something to 4 Houses.

- I found this site thanks to Izy and am really quite obsessed with it!



That's really all I have to say about myself. I've loved being here and meeting all of you, and I hope that'll never change!

[Jack Reid]

The Me
Name
Justin. Some call me Valmer, but that was only a few people. No one really calls me by my charries, but if you want you can.

Age: 23

A Bit About Me:
Well I went to college with Adam (Finn, Drake, Kennedy) and we were roommates last year. That’s pretty much how I found out about 4Houses. I currently go to a small music college down in western Tennessee, close to Memphis. I go there for music business, and I’d like to write a music blog along with writing CD reviews for a living sooner or later. I’m realizing my love for house concerts more, so I might start getting into something with that soon as well. I live a lot of my dreams out in my charries, so if you meet me through one of my charries, each one probably has a bit of me in them, except for Derek. I’m not that smooth. ;D

The Characters


Jack Reid S7
Jack is probably my favorite character to write. When I came back to 4Houses full time, Jack was a charrie I really wanted to bring back right away, and when I did, Ezzie and I just started staying up late at night writing posts back and forth, and out came Riley and Jack’s whole story. While Jack can be a hard Slytherin at times, he does have a bit of a soft spot in his heart for certain things and people, particularly Riley. His family life is quite rocky, but I’m happy to say that whenever I write him I feel comfortable, so if you’re every looking for a good Slytherin post, feel free to let me know.


Valmer Van Ruster S7 - Valmer was my main character for a while, until I picked up Jack. I really connected with Valmer and felt like he was the most like me. He’s not your typical Slytherin, and I wouldn’t be the typical stereotype of that House, even if I was in that House. Now that he's back, I look forward to bringing him out again as my main character. Like I said, he's the most like me, with a few quirks, so if you're looking for a down-to-earth post, let me know.


Detective Matthew Harper
Matt Harper is Aviva Morgan’s new partner, and she’s not that much of a fan of that fact. Matt is an adventurous and fun loving guy, but knows when it’s time to work. I like writing Matt because he’s somewhat like me, as in comparison to Jack who is almost nothing like me. I’m trying to get him out of his box a bit more, preferably with other grads other than Aviva. Not that he doesn’t like his time with Aviva, he just needs to get out more. ;D


Derek Alsbrow
Derek is my newest charrie, and I really don’t know what will be going on with him soon. Some plots are changing and his fate may be decided soon. He is the first Durmstrang graduate on the site, which makes him quite unique in comparison to all the other Hogwarts students and grads that he’s around. I’m still getting into his charrie, so if you’d like to try a run with Derek, let me know, I’m always up for a few posts with him.

The Rest
Well I guess the main thing I should put here is that I’ve been on 4Houses for at least a year and a half, but took about an 8-month break because of school getting to be way too much of a hassle. I’ve had 3 charries previously on the site, and they are as follows:

Kody Leuchten G3 - My first charrie, this little guy kept me going for a while before I got my main charrie, Valmer. Kody was a cute little kid, pretty much carefree and friends with everyone.

Ian McCain H5 - Ian was sort of a character I just threw together because I wanted someone new, and I had a plot or two lined up with him. Things ended up not working out, so he just kind of fell off to the side. Lonely little guy.


Bryan Sangert H6 - Bryan is Finn’s best friend, and reminds me of the friendship that Adam and I shared as roommates in college. I would like to bring him back sometime, but I lost inspiration towards the end and needed room for a new charrie.

So that’s the story of me! See you out on the boards!

[Casey Allen G5]

The Me

Name
Catherine or Maryn which I go by here. Maryn was my first charrie but I’ll take either.

Age
18

A Bit About Me
I was born in raised in Alabama and still live here for now. I’m a senior in high school thank goodness and I graduate in May. Yay! Haha. Next year I start college about three hours from home which is exciting because I’ve lived with my parents my whole life. I’m not sure if I’ll have a computer or not..but that is something I’ll worry about this summer. I plan on majoring in Communications but I’m sure I’ll probably switch majors a couple of times. As for hobbies, I’m pretty obsessed with music. I like some mainstream stuff and then some off the wall stuff no one has ever heard of..oh well. I also love to sing. I write my own music but my guitar literally hates me. I’m up for a choral scholarship in college. I just haven’t gotten my letter yet. However I am officially a leadership scholar. I just got the letter today so that is pretty exciting. As for the site, I’ve been here over three years and it has been a blast. Oh and I love role-playing my charries.


The Characters



Casey Allen
Casey is the most…hmm spirited character I have ever played. She’s a Gryffindor 5th year. She is pretty much as cute as a button and always has been. She is very out-going and pretty naïve. The main thing about Casey is she is a pop star. At first she lived a double life as Eden Sweden where she wore a blond wig to sing and be famous and then attended Hogwarts as normal Casey Allen. (three guesses which show the idea came from) This went on for years until she spilled her secret in December. Then normal Casey Allen changed to famous Casey Allen. Casey is involved in the plot Mercy Street with her boyfriend, Carson McGreggor, best-friend, Ezzie Mendez, and other NPCs. Casey and Carson are a pretty steady thing right now and are so cute they make me giggle..haha. As for the future, Casey’s life is going to get very crazy, very soon. Her current thread ‘Mercy Street?’ is going to take a surprising turn that changes Casey forever, so look out for that.



Lori Leigh
Lori, Lori, Lori. *shakes head* Lori is defiantly the sweetest character I’ve ever played. She is in Ravenclaw in her 6th year. She is like Casey in some ways, but less spirited than Casey. Lori is also very naïve and very kind. She likes to give people the benefit of the doubt and never likes to label anyone. Also, Lori was basically born with a best-friend. Theo Darke is the son of Lori’s parents, best-friends so Lori and Theo have been best-friends their entire lives. It isn’t really surprising that Lori fell in love with Theo and it probably would have worked out.. if Theo wasn’t gay. So really Lori never had a chance. Now Lori is dating Scott Ryder but considering that Lori is in love with Theo and Scott and Theo have always had a special bond, well it can’t turn out good. A few months ago Lori learned that her best-friend has been dating Oscar Flynn without telling the one person he always told everything. That was the day Lori told Theo she loved him. Right now Lori is avoiding her best-friend and avoiding the enviable confrontation with her boyfriend. She would love some girl friends to give her a shoulder to lean on/or even spice up her life. And she wouldn’t mind a guy to talk to and/or spice up her life as well. Haha. PM my main account, which is Casey’s if you’re interested.



Damara Hemingway
Damara is totally different from any other charrie I’ve ever played. She’s a Slytherin 6th year and in ways the ‘typical Slytherin’. Well if the typical Slytherin was also born into a gang. (not you Angela!) Damara’s mother runs England’s Entourage, a very powerful European gang. The Entourage’s rival gang is the Cavalieri Gang headed by the Merciano family. The two families have been feuding for centuries but no one really knows why. Damara is totally committed to the Entourage and has every intention of taking the Unbreakable Vow and joining upon graduation. Damara is very much a broken character. She has only ever loved two people: her father and her old boyfriend and Merciano family member, Nico. Her father died when Damara was entering school and Nico was taken from her when his family learned that he was seeing a Hemingway. Damara is pretty dark to the point where she can seem insane. Nico’s memory is constantly haunting her. She doesn’t really have any friends besides her brothers and Entourage members and future members nor is she one to really talk to or mess with. Damara is sarcastic and has a quick temper. She doesn’t tend to give second chances or feel remorse. She would love to post with some Slytherins (besides demon) and even get involved in some plotting if it’s in a small way as she is involved in Forbidden Fairytales which should be getting complicated in the next few months. PM my main account if you’re interested.


The Rest
Hmm not much more to say. My main account is Casey’s and I check my messages almost every day. I don’t have MSN right now but I’m planning on downloading it soon and I’ll edit this with the info on that when I get it up. I love to plot and would like to get a new charrie or two..hmm probably just one.. soon since I have the free time and I like posting different personalities. So feel free to PM me with ideas if you ever have any. I promise I don’t bite unless you are giving me a cookie.

[Julius Lionheart]

Wow, and I thought that I was one of the older ones here.


The Me

Name

My real name is Justin, and in Japanese that's Jusuunchu. You can call me by my real name, but if you like you can call me Julius, Woodrow(sorry only Viv can call me Woody), Vince, or JD.

Age

Just turned 19 years young two weeks ago this Saturday!

About Me

Ah, about me, well I was born in Texas, which is where I reside still. I love music, and was in a band until I moved away from my hometown. I can play the guitar, and I love to write songs, I just wrote one last night that I'm calling 'Walking In Your Shadow'. I go to college, and was going to UNT, but it cost to much. Right now I'm only taking two courses; I'm gonna major in Theatre, with a minor in Law. I play baseball and football, but can't tryout til the fall, when I'll be a full time student again. I love video games, and I love to laugh and make other people laugh; yes, I'm a bit of a comedian. I currently live with my mother, but in the fall I'll be living on campus. Oh yeah, I'm left handed, and I love to rock out. Have I left out anything? Oh I know. I joined the site originally in January of '04, but I left maybe a year and half later due to stress. This site has meant a lot to me, even in my absence. I'm also a genuis, no joke. Particularly when it comes to Mathematical Theories.

The Characters

Julius Lionheart G7
He is my original character, although back when i first joined he was named Justin Lionheart. He is probably my favorite character, and the one I tend to be logged on as. He's, in my terms, the Jester Princeling of Gryffindor, and is currently not involved in any plots. His best friends were Perseus Feynman and Jaquin Proktenstein, who sadly are not on any longer. He loves Quidditch, and is on the Gryffindor team. He is a big flirt, and loves to talk to the fairer sex, sorry Theo. Anyways, if you ant him in a plot, I'm all ears.

Woodrow Alexander Winchester Jr. R3
Woodrow was my character upon my return to the site, which was very recently. I like to use him, particularly because I get to be the brilliant kid who I prefer not to be in school in real life. He is, like Julius, on his houses Quidditch team, but unlike Julius, he is nothing but a wreck of nerves around the fairer sex. He is somewhat of a joker, but he is also serious at times. He too is currently uninvolved in a plot.

Vincente Ariel Faire H6
Vince is my newest charrie, and is my darkest character. Although I am a bit of a jokester, it takes me a while to warm up to people when I first meet them in person, so I based him upon that side of me. Anyways, Vince is cocky, sarcastic, and condescending; doesn't he sound awesome!? But he is also very loyal to his friends, protective over people who get bullied, and feels unloved except from his sister. If you're looking to post with the loner type, look no further.

The Rest

As for the rest, I am usually on as Julius, but I log on to Vince and Woodrow every time I am on as well. You can pm me as Julius, Vince, or Woodrow, or you could chat me up on AIM or YIM. My AIM is midnightsufferer. My YIM is midnightsmelancholysufferer.

[Celia Richmond]

Thought I'd do this, not that I have that much interesting stuff to say really =)

The Me

Name:
Kathryn, but usually known as Thryn, or Kat. Izy herself gave me the former nickname (claiming she knew too many Cat/Kat's already ) and the latter's just one various people have called me over the years.

Age:
18, as of 2 months and...11 days ago. Wait, that's exactly 70 days, ie 10 weeks, ago now. Hah. Yes, I'm weird like that, calculating random numbers like that. And yes, for those that tried to work out when my birthday was, it's Christmas Eve. Just. I was very nearly born on Christmas day.

A Bit About Me:
Well, I've said a bit in the past 2 sections, but whatever. I like to ramble a lot, sometimes. I either speak loads or just don't speak at all. That's just what I'm like. With people I don't know too well, I don't talk much at all...I find it hard to think of conversations, and I'm shy. I guess it can be the same with friends too...but once I'm talking about something, I can often talk for ages.

Anyways

I live in Manchester, England, not too far from Izy and Viv, and go to the same school as both of them. And it's through Izy that I got into this site...RPing isn't something I would normally do voluntarily, and if I hadn't known someone here already I probably wouldn't've joined this site.

I'm in my last year of school and off to university in October...probably going to Durham, as Cambridge were silly and obviously didn't see obvious talent when I went for my interview. Heh, I kid...I don't blame them, and I'm very happy to be going to Durham, having already met some great people also going there, though I'll be sad to leave my present friends behind.

And I didn't mention in that what I'm studying...well, I'm currently doing my A-Levels in biology, chemistry and maths (with further maths AS as an extra, as I'm a maths nerd and proud haha), and plan to study Biology and Chemistry at Durham when I go there.

I live with my parents and brother, and don't always get on with them, but that's normal I guess. I have hardly any creative talent whatsoever (I can't draw to save my life, I don't act or sing - apart from when I just go mad, that is and I'm not very musical. I do dance, and play the guitar, but that's it.
I think that's all I have to say. I DID say I like to ramble!

The Characters

Celia Richmond R7
Celia is my main character, but not my first. Although originally not really meant to be like me, I've found myself posting her acting more and more like I would, despite her more outgoing personality. She's very studious, and loves to challenge herself...she's taking 7 NEWTs, is a prefect, captain of the quidditch team and last year was on the BBBS committee. She's had a fairly interesting past, and would do anything to protect her younger sister. She's not easily scared, and can usually deal with situations pretty well, especially when accompanied by friends.

Sophia Hallington H6
Ahh, Sophia. My first character, and one that I've posted least recently. She's rather shy, and when I first created her she was basically going to be me with a few twists. She's not the most academic of students, but she tries her best, and got a good set of OWL results. She's caring and friendly, though finds it hard to make friends cos of her shyness...pretty much a typical Hufflepuff really. On the Quidditch team as a Chaser.

Billy Brady H5
Billyyyyy! The joker of the lot, and until recently inseperable from the infamous Rex Carter. He was originally created for a plot (that unfortunaely is no longer in operation) so not entirely my own creation, but he's still a loveable character. He's generally cheeky, fairly sporty when he feels like it, afraid of girls, and generally just mischievous. Well, not so much recently as he's still pretty much in a state of, well, mourning and bitterness after the breakdown of his friendship with Rex. But then along came Sita, whom he values as a friend but wishes she'd let him have some alone time occasionally! What happens there...you'll have to wait and see .

The Rest

Don't really have much to add, other than despite being a staffie I don't actually know many people around these parts that well. Feel free to send a PM or whatever if you feel like it, I'm always happy to get to know people more. Errrm...that's it I think. Now I need to find something more productive (ahem) to do!

[Hayley Blake S5]

Me

Name: Hayley. :]

Age: I'm 14.

A Bit About Moi: I live in Leeds, West Yorkshire, England; where I was born and raised with my three silblings. I have alot of family in the United States and I visit there alot. My life is pretty much music and football. :]].

Les Caractères


Hayley Blake S4

Hayley is my first character ;]. She's sort of a reflection of me, only much more arrogant. She just likes to have fun. Hayley's energetic, a trouble maker, and extremly confident. She's grown up living a quiet lifestyle, but that hasn't taken a toll on her personality. She does have an insecure side, and her personality can vary. A lot. While she's very intelligent, Hayley doesn't always use her common sense. She'd rather be laughing with friends than worrying about school.


The Rest
Uhm, there's not really anything else to say... I have a MSN Messenger. PM me for the address (:

[Alexander O'Brien S4]

[glow=red,2,300]About Me[/glow]

Name: Alexander, or as people call me, Alex.

Age: 17. I was born on July 9th and am a very young senior, as you can find out below. I get to go see Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince for my birthday with my friends!

Bio: I live in Missouri, which is the state I was born in. I am a senior in High School, and I graduate on May 14th, 2009. After High School, I plan on going to college to become a computer software engineer. For those of you who don't know, it's what game designers are officially called. My favorite things to do are read books, play video games and the computer, role-play, hang out with my friends, martial arts (TaeKwonDo currently), and sword fighting.

[glow=red,2,300]My Characters[/glow]

Alexander O'Brien S4: He is my first character, and only vaguely is like me. He is a pureblood, and is cold, aloof, and believes he is better than everyone else. He has no friends, and doesn't want any. He is very intelligent, and good at magic, but is cruel, and controlling. Since he is my first and only as of yet, he is my most active and the one I'll be playing on for the time being.

[Mary Evans]

Ah! I so intended to post here but I didn’t have time then I forgot until Justin pointed it out in TTS!

The Me…

Ashley, but feel free to call me Mary or any other character name you may be more comfortable with. I don’t mind.

Age

22!

A Bit About Me

I am Canadian! Woo. I am also a Slytherpuff. Meaning I am Slytherin but the Canadian in me has to be a little Hufflepuff, polite and accepting and all that despite my Slytherin self lol. I even sleep under a Slytherin banner, it’s a little scary.

As evidenced by my being here I love Harry Potter, part because the books rocked, and mostly because I made such amazing friends in this community; on this site in face. And part because when I like something I tend to love it and get obsessed with it… happens with everything I am afraid.

I don’t tend to post much because I work full time, I commute a couple hours a day, and I spend all the time I can with my boyfriend… but I really am trying. I do love my characters.

Hmm… everyone else’s seems far more in depth and interesting but… I really don’t feel like talking about myself at the moment… So if you want to know something, like what I do for a living, just ask

The Characters

I am thinking I will go through all that meant anything to me and just saying if they are active or not because… I have dropped a lot of characters that meant a lot to me…

Mary Evans
When she was younger, as many will remember her.

She was my first ever character, little Mary Evans S3, the nice Slytherin. Then I had this whole elaborate plot for the summer that I never got time to play out where she got close to her cousin and had some confrontation with muggles when ended in her and her cousin taking part in some muggle baiting… and that was when she realised that the real problem in wizarding society is that they were forced underground for the comfort of muggles.

She’s cruel and sarcastic, very egotistical, witty, and a lot of fun to write. Especially because she’s actually a bit lonely, unsure, guarded, and insecure. But people won’t likely see that side of her because… it’s not fun to write lol. Plus, it’s not a huge part of her, she’s just a teenager. Basically, she’s so busy with her self-preservation it turns her into this sarcastic loose canon, ready to blow on anyone or anything that seems to be getting too close.

She’s Head Girl and Quidditch Captain. The former, I believe, because of her self-possession. The later because she’s been beater on the Slytherin team since her third year and despite her small frame manages to whack blugers exactly where she needs them to go to cause damage. She’s single minded a lot of the time, which helps in school and in Quidditch. She works her team hard and expects a lot from them… but the kindest you will see her is to her team members when it’s in regards to what they do for the team.

Lenora Byers


Technically she was my third character, but really she was my second as the one between her and Mary didn’t last more than a few weeks because she was boring and I can’t play Ravenclaws. I loved her to pieces and even had her as my staff character for awhile but am now considering dropping her due to lack of inspiration…

She’s bubbly and fun, my little drama queen. She started as a fourth year Gryffindor and is now finishing up her first year at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts, which she is finding very stressful! But she has always been determined, always found a way to act even when she was at Hogwarts, she managed to stay in her muggle stage company that she had been in for years. Lenora was a half-blood and therefore raised in both worlds. She is currently missing her magical life, but perfectly comfortable in her muggle environment. Lenora also danced, sang, ran, and played Quidditch at school; she’s a very active personality.

Gavin Armstrong


Currently a fifth year Hufflepuff, I did start him in his first year but dropped him for awhile. Now he’s back and the same year as the friends he started out with. Gavin is a muggleborn from downtown London. He has a twin brother Jheylon who was not a wizard and therefore couldn’t come to Hogwarts, much to Gavin’s dismay. He’s very bubbly and tends to ramble a lot but when it really comes down to it he has always been a follower. First he followed his brother, then he followed Payton and Ingrid, and now he follows his friend Eric (NPC). The hope is that with re-discovering his old friend Sita Gavin will learn to do more of what he likes and less of what others tell him to do, but we will see how that works out. He’s a good student, a fan of quidditch though he hasn’t gotten up the nerve to try out for the team yet, and a very loyal friend.

Adalia St John
Way back in first year…


Currently in her fourth year at Hogwarts Adalia started out as a first year Slytherin, pureblood and spoiled rotten all the way. She bopped around in age a bit as I would drop her and bring her back at different stages. Now she’s fourth year and I am enjoying it for sure.

As I said, Adalia is the perfect pureblood Slytherin. She’s cunning, cruel, quick witted, and worst of all… totally secure in her own rightness. She has never doubted in the least that purebloods are the only kind of person worth knowing, worth being, worth anything. She doesn’t know too many people, and doesn’t care to as none of them would be up to her standards, she expects perfection from everyone including herself. Lucky she believes herself to be perfect then. She’s plays keeper and is on the reserve Slytherin team, something she hopes to fix next year. Basically, don’t cross her path unless you you’re willing to part with your dignity.

Adriahna Dynes


Adriahna is no longer with us. But inspired by River from Firefly Adriahna is my first even remotely successful attempts at playing a Ravenclaw. She was in her fifth year, a prefect. She was very intelligent… and did not fit into social situations well. She had an issue with “uncontrollable legilimency” where she would keen the emotions and sometimes thoughts of those around her… leaving her very little control over her own.

Simone Davis


Another fifth year Raven, years ago. I couldn’t really get into her, but I liked her a lot. To be honest… I don’t remember her much but I remember her fondly.

Branden Davis


Simone’s cousin. Made a fifth year Gryffindor, made it into his sixth year before I dropped him due to inactivity. He was fun! Smart, never had to study to do well in school… which left a lot of time for pranking. He simply enjoyed going out, having fun, and causing mayhem. He was even the manager of “the nameless band” which was headed by Andrew Thornton. To see an interview Branden did on the band please go here.

Hannah Abbott


Of course, a canon character. But I really made her my own and had a lot of fun with her. It was also really neat trying to get her right to the books because I had never played a Hufflepuff before her. She was sweet and childish, very innocent and fun. Hannah was devastated when her mother was killed in a Death Eater attack, she was never quite the same after that. The experience did, however, bring her closer than ever to her best friend Ernie MacMillan (played by Nokomis at that time) and they eventually got married.

Others to note, Blaise Zabini, Millicent Bulstrode, Mrs. Norris, Serverus Snape, Narcissa Malfoy, Madam Hooch, Israel Moon… and probably others who are not springing to mind at the moment.
Blaise. Israel.

The Rest

Not totally sure what to say here. I am hoping people have noticed that Slytherins are my favourite to play, and they tend to be my best developed characters. But that shouldn’t mean I am unapproachable, while my characters might be. Anyone can feel free to PM me or get me on MSN at [e-mail], please don’t be offended if I don’t start many conversations… I just don’t, with anybody. But I am always happy to chat.

I have been on this site for over 4 years now and it has seen me through thick and thin… I really don’t know where I would be without it. The people here make it all worth it. And that my friends is all I have to say…

[Ville Spriggs R1]

The Me.

Name:
Kyle

Age:
14

A Bit About Me:
I was born and so far have grown up in Great Falls, Montana. I tend to have times when I feel like writing and others that I don't so some of my posts will be better than others. I'm a freshman at CMR HS (blah, being a freshman sucks). I live with my mom, my little sister, and my older brother. I like to listen to music, mostly rock like the Beatles or HIM, but I also listen to acid rap like Insane Clown Posse and Twisted.

The Characters.

Ville Spriggs
Ville was born in Montana but his family moved to England when he was at the age of four. He is the first in his family to go to Hogwarts, his father born in Norway went to Durmstrang his mother on the other hand was home schooled. His sister who is three years younger than him won't be attending Hogwarts until the '04-'05 school year. He likes to listen to both muggle rock bands and wizard rock bands.

The Rest

There's not much else besides the fact that I based Ville as closely to myself as I could because it would be easier to put myself in his place if he were a lot like me.

[zoeyshay]

Eh…Might as well do something to ease the boredom, haha! X]

The Me:

Name: Brittnie, but better known as Britt, Britzy, and Zoey.

Age: I’m the youngster of 4Houses, being 13.

About Me:

I live in Florida, but my mother’s from England and my father’s from Germany. Being raised by the two with accents, even if I was born and raised in America, I have the Brit and German accent, sort of fused. But luckily, being around so many American’s I can hide it efficiently, haha. I am very hyper, having ADHD, and I am somewhat of a perfectionist, also having OCD. I love to make people smile. I’m a smart kid, I suppose, I’m two grades ahead and I scored a perfect score on the standardized tests here in Florida O.o… And as you can see, I love smilies. I am also accident prone, clumsy, and have the weirdest things happen to me on a daily basis (i.e: being attacked by a pigeon with red eyes. I swear.) If you want to know more about me, feel free to PM me, I’m a very friendly person!

The Charries:

Zoriada Shay G4- a.k.a Zoey



She’s a half-blood, and her father’s just re-entered her life after a 12 year absence. She’s the Vice Captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team surprisingly, being the youngest member and her size. She’s hyper and a tad hot-headed, but over all friendly and a great friend. She has an upcoming plot coming soon, so keep watch!

Lyli Adams H3

She’s a pureblood and lived a pretty average life, besides her past that’s haunting her day in and day out. She’s a twin, but her twin, Madison, died when they were four. As a result, her father started to go insane, dreading the death, and since consuling and therapy didn’t help, he’s now in a mental hospital, leaving Lyli and her mother alone at home with a monthly letter.

[Danny McKay G5]

Name: Timothy but TJ works, actually I prefer TJ so we'll just use that.

Age: 21 I'm getting old =(.

About me:


Well I've already said I'm 21 lets see what else I can work up. First off I'd like to apologize to the site, I've been here before and left a number of times without warning. I was still in high school then and unlike some of the wonderful people here, I just couldn't juggle school work and posting on the site. Now on to other things, I currently work for a Cadillac dealership as one of the technicians but I can't do much of the higher end stuff till I take my classes for it. Till then I'm stuck doing the basic stuff like tires, oil changes, alignments and other stuff like that. If you notice I'm on a lot during work hours you can be sure that it is a boring and slow day for me at work. I live in Florida, the best way to describe it is just outside of Jacksonville but it's still kind of far from Jacksonville. It's a small town called Middleburg, I bet you wonder why it's called Middleburg right? That because it's in the middle of nowhere. I tend to have an overactive imagination and a very limited ability to stay focused on much even if I really want to. At any given moment I'll just daydream about anything really.

What else is there...? I love anime and music from Japan for some reason, I can't understand a word they say but I still love it. I've played video games all my life and still do, lately I've just been sticking to Wii and PC games. I was once big into WoW (World of Warcraft) but I have since burned out on it from playing so much. I've moved on to other games just like it though. My newest thing lately has been Twitter, it allows be to be as random as I normally am while letting other people see how odd my thoughts are. I doubt people read what I put half the time but I still find it fun to use even if no one looks. Aside from that I guess I don't have much else to say. Message me if you have any questions, about what I don't know but I'll answer them anyway.

The Characters:


Danny McKay


My first Character since I came back to the site. He's your standard Gryffindor, he's brave and loyal till the end. He's also willing to fight for whatever he believes in and for the people he cares about in a moments notice. Danny is part of the Quidditch team and I can't wait to play him in some of the games. I kind of wanted to play seeker but seeing as he has no Quidditch experience it's best that he is a chaser till he plays a few games first. I've been trying to think of a plot for him but I haven't really come up with one just yet.

Dustin Hemingway


I wish I could take credit for creating him but it was all Ezzie's doing, I was just asked to play him and I was more then happy too. Dustin was expelled from Hogwarts for drug usage while trying to find a way deal with his fathers death. Dustin's whole family belongs to an underground gang called The Entourage. He didn't wish to join the family and in trying to avoid it is aiming for a career as a professional Quidditch player.



Thomas Lightfellow


Years ago when I started Rping on another Harry potter site this was the first character I ever made. For the most part he's the same as when I first made him but I added 80% more to his bio. He's probably the most like me of all my characters. He works for the Ministry of Magic as one of the members of the Werewolf capture unit. I don't know why that career seemed so awesome to me but it was so I had to make it his job too. I don't really have much plot ideas for him yet, I just had the urge to bring him back to the would of Harry potter so I did. I'll think of something later.

[Aisling Fraser R1]

I'm brand new, but jumping in feet first into the ocean that is this site.

The Me

Name
Kay, which is one of two middle names.

Age
I will be 24 in January

A Bit About Me
I was actually born in England, but have lived most of my life in the US. My favorite place that I have lived so far has been Idaho, which I have spent the majority of my life. I love to read, being a complete bibliophile, often annoying my family. I have done the college thing, but ended up dropping out because of complications with family, and am longing to go back to get a degree in Interior Design. I love to draw and dream up stories, most which never come to light. I am a computer geek, and love playing MMOs, mostly World of Warcraft. My most favorite fandom other than HP is Sailor Moon (gasp!), which was my gateway anime.


The Characters

Aisling Fraser
She is my first character on here, and I am not sure if she will remain my only at this point in time. She is almost a cross between Luna Lovegood and Hermione Granger, with a bit of non-crazy Trelawny thrown in. Aisling is very shy, but will talk anyone's ear off when it comes to books. She is interested in herbs and potions, and the use of the former in the latter. She believes in all things her father tells her, and idolizes her two sisters. She is very naive, and seems to hide more than show herself off. Unfortunately, she is also a girly-girl, but gets by with the minimum of primping, leaving that to the other females.

The Rest

I don't really have anything else to say, other than I am a forum troller (only in the nicest sense). I will visit any forum that I am a part of more than once a day, just to see if there has been any change. I'm a bit obsessive, in that regard, so forgive me. I'm also crazy, but I think I might just fit in here. --^--<@

[Nourdine Prideux R5]

Hey, hello, hi, how are you?

Well I'm Callum. A 19 year old from the Isle of Man who currently resides in Salford, Manchester where I am reading Linguistics and French (specialising in Sociolinguistics).

I've been rp-ing (in the play-by-post format) for approximately 5 years now, mainly in Historical Role-Play and particularly Renaissance and Baroque. I've been on various sites as both moderator and administrator as well as a player, and previously used to make various banners for colleagues, however now without my desktop PC, I don't have my photoshop, so that's out the window.

I got the name for my first character 'Nourdine Prideux' from my current character on another site, where he plays the French Ambassador to the English Throne. I've made him a lot younger, but kept many of the main attributes. However, here I hope he'll be a well liked character, whereas elsewhere he is despised and manipulative.

That's all for now
