Name: Maria White

Appearance: Maria is 5'6" and has a petite hourglass shape. In school she wears her robes, but outside she usually wears things ranging from skirts, tights, and various blouses/jumpers to skinny jeans and a blouse.

Age: 18

What are you?: Mudblood

House: Hufflepuff

Year At Hogwarts: 7

Bio: Maria grew up with a pretty normal life, except for the little mishaps that her magical abilities sometimes caused. Her parents just thought her to be strange, but the day that the letter from Hogwarts arrived, they realized just how much potential their little girl had. Throughout her years of education, she seemed to always surprise her parents with what she had learned at Hogwarts. Maria excelled in all of her classes, which often confused others about the reason behind putting her in Hufflepuff. Nonetheless, Maria continued to be proud of her House and helped add points to the scoreboard, even though she honestly didn’t understand the point of a competition between the four houses. She often faced discrimination from the bullies, like Draco Malfoy, due to her muggle parents, but she always turned the other cheek.

Maria was proud when Cedric was chosen to compete in the Triwizard tournament. They had spoken a few times when they were relaxing in the Hufflepuff common room, and she knew that he had a chance to win. Unforunately, she was in the stands when Harry returned with his body. She and the rest of the Hufflepuff house were devastated by his loss. The initial shock of it all shook Maria to her bones. The return of Voldemort worried Maria, especially when the bullying worsened.

Soon later, Dumbledore began to be questioned. She joined Dumbledore's Army because she truly believed in him. She began to practice Defense Against the Dark Arts, often helping others with the spells when Harry, Ron, and Hermione were busy. After Dumbledore died, Maria felt even more frightened of the Death Eater's. During the summer leading up to her seventh year, she spent all the time she could practicing and spending time with her family. Now, on her way back to Hogwarts, she worries whether she'll finish her last year at all.

Personality: While Maria is intelligent, her personality helps explain why she was best suited in Hufflepuff. She is kind, patient, loyal, straightforward, and works hard to achieve her goals. While she is nice to everyone she meets, she never forgets a cruel word or action, but never holds it against someone until they need to hear a good lecture. She would be described as more of a tougher Hufflepuff than the rest in her house, but she does wear her heart on her sleeves at times.

Wand Type: 10" Willow with a Unicorn Hair

Special Talents: Charms, Inventing Spells, Protective Spells.

Fears/Weaknesses: Fears tight spaces and the dark. While she is agile, Maria is physically average.

Name: Sebastian Entwistle

Sebastian dresses like any wizard with power, but often wears only a black suit. Casually, he wears jeans, a white shirt, and a leather jacket. He stands at 6'1" with sturdy, broad shoulders and a lightly muscular build.

Age: 28

What Are You?: Pure-Blood Snatcher

House: Ravenclaw

Bio:

Personality: Sebastian's ambition should have landed him in Slytherin, but his ambition was only for learning. Well, learning the Dark Arts, that is. He had a curious thirst to learn every bit of information about it, and that's what he did. Aside from that thirst, Sebastian was considered a silvertongue. His quick remarks and witty replies often made class enjoyable, but sometimes got him into trouble. He'd mostly target mudbloods with his witty insults, enjoying the feeling of making them feel inferior to his pure-blood status. Messing with their minds was great fun for him, and continues to please him today.

Wand Type: 12" Blackthorn with a Dragon Heartstring

Special Talents: Dark Arts, Conjuring Spells

Fears/Weaknesses: Always pushes himself too far.

Name: Lorcan Bell
Appearance: A sharply defined face, pale skin and pale grey eyes. His black hair sits shaggily atop his head, only just long enough for it to reach his eyebrow. His body is tall, and gangly, with relatively thin shoulders and a soft, kindly facial expression. When he was at school he wore his Ravenclaw robes, and outside of school he usually wears black skinny jeans and plain t shirts or jumpers.

Wand Type: His wand is 12 inches, made of mahogany and containing dragon heartstring.

What Are You? Mudblood
House: Ravenclaw

Year At Hogwarts: 7

Bio: Born to a muggle family, he had often wondered why he made strange things happen, such as making the school bully burst out in giant spots, or setting his own bed on fire. When he got the letter his parents initially assumed it to be a joke, but when he returned home full of tales of magic far too fanciful for a 12 year old boy to have conjured up, they begrudgingly accepted magic. During his time at Hogwarts he has few friends and fewer enemies. He kept to himself.

He tried hard to be the model Ravenclaw students and excel academically, however his only real area of natural talent lay in charms and defence against the dark arts.

When Harry returned from the Triwizard maze, and Dumbledore declared Voldemort to have returned, Lorcan accepted this. He was in the stands when Harry returned clutching Cedric Diggorys body, and the haunted look on his face was no made up story.

Since then he has done his best to resist the dark lord and the corrupt ministry, in any small way a pupil such as himself could.

He joined 'Dumbledore's Army' and has publicly said he believed in Voldemorts return, leading the few friends he had to leave him

Now as the snatchers rise, he is ready to run.

Personality: Stubborn, quiet, honest, loyal.
Special Talents: Charms, Defence against the dark arts
Fears/Weaknesses: Bad at transfiguration, potions, is scared of heights.

Name: Silus Nott

Appearance: Silas stands about 6'2", with dark blonde hair and built woth a slight muscular frame. Unlike most snatchers, he refuses to dress in bulky clothes, or smear dark powder around his eyes, and it is likely you will often find him wearing clean black robes whenever you meet him. He is rarely seen in anything else, though he occasionally dons a simple pair of jeans and a polo short when mingling in the muggle world.

Age: 20

What Are You?: Pureblood Snatcher

House: Ex Slytherin

Bio: Silus, coming from a pureblood family, knew he was a wizard from a young age. Unfortunately, muggle law bound him to attend muggle school until he was of leaving age but, thankfully, he only had to endure 6 long years learning mundane subjects alongside what his parents had taught him to be filth. He was often in trouble at school for bullying those he felt were inferior to him and, though he was punished by the school, his parents condoned his behaviour and encouraged him to be cruel to them whenever possible. His childhood years of cruelty and bullying no doubt played a part in shaping him into the cruel young man he is today.

When his acceptance letter from Hogwarts finally arrived on his eleventh birthday, Silas was over the moon. He was glad to finally be rid of the muggle world and to have been taken in by the wizarding world he so longed to be a part of. It was his mother who took him to Diagon Alley to buy his supplies, a trip that was merely uneventful, though wondrous as it was. Silus stared in awe at everything he laid his eyes on while his old fashioned mother snapped at him all the way down the winding street, commanding he stop being such a child and stop staring with his mouth open. She had always been very tight when it came to etiquette and presentation, especially where Silus was concerned. After purchasing his equipment, and hearing an odd comment about his wand length from Ollivander, Silus waited out the next few months with barely contained excitement as the date of his leaving home approached.

He cared little for the train ride, finding himself passing away the hours sat in a cabin by himself with a book open upon his lap, trying desperately to block out the noise from the equally excited students around him. His mother had always taught him to keep his emotions hidden when possible, and he chose that moment to take her advice and sit with a blank, emotionless face all the way to Hogwarts. The Sorting Ceremony was, as he expected, equally as dull. He watched as student after student stepped perched themselves on the chair and had the Sorting Hat dropped upon their heads, woth the hat calling out the names of houses with glee. When Silas sat upon the same stool, the hat took a moment to think where to put him, humming aloud as he did so. It was obvious to Silas he would be placed in Slytherin, as that was where his parents, and their parents before them, had been placed. The hat, whether reading his mind or not, did indeed place him in Slytherin and Silas was greeted with claps and cheers from his new housemates.

It was clear from his very first year at Hogwarts that he would grow up to be a proficient wizard, as he displayed excellent skill from day one. As the years passed and his skills got better, Silas often found his mind wander from class and daydream about things he wouldn't dare talk about aloud. His teachers noticed his odd behaviour and some even tried to talk to him about the dangers of what he was thinking, but it did not sway him from his thoughts. It was over the Christmas holidays in his sixth year that he approached his father on the subject of the Dark Arts. Of course, his father was delighted his son had come to see him about such a topic, and took great delight in showing him what he knew, and leaving him with a promise that on his seventeenth birthday he would teach Silas the exact same. Having just bore witness to a grand knowledge of the dark magic his father was capable of performing, naturally Silas could hardly wait to start learning such things.

And so, upon his return to Hogwarts, he broke into the restricted section late one night and began reading up on everything he could lay his hands on. He was caught several times, and very nearly expelled on one occasion when he was spotted attempting to perform an Unforgivable Curse on another students owl, but his parents simply told the school they would punish him and, after several detentions, Silas was let off and allowed to continue his studies. It was most likely his family's influence with a few teachers at Hpgwarts that allowed this to be pulled off.

By the end of his seventh year, Silas was somewhat profound in the dark arts, having done his research and had lessons from his father. He graduated from Hogwarts with close to top marks in all his subjects, though he left with a darker heart than he had arrived with. He was urged by several of his teachers to deflect from the path he was following, but it was already too late. Silas' mind was already set upon the Dark Arts and joining his father in supporting the Dark Lord's return.

Three years after his graduation, at the age of twenty, Silas was finally intorduced into just such a campaign. His family had a history with one Severus Snape, the current Headmaster of Hogwarts. It was this historical friendship they played upon to induct Silas into Voldemort's cause. Using their influence as a pureblood family they had him initiated as a Snatcher, working alongside Severus to return any student to Hogwarts who thought it below them to return under the Dark Lord's new regime. On the odd occasion, Silas was called upon to venture outside of the castle walls and hunt down wanted criminals and mudbloods the Ministry had called for questioning, though it was rare for him to remain outside of Hogwarts for long. He was usually found very close to Snape's side whenever he was not needed for his skills or he would be roaming the halls of the castle, sending spells flying in the direction of any who annoyed him, or perhaps those who were venturing around when they should be in class. He is well respected by most of the staff and feared by many students, though there are certainly those who refuse to show respect or fear towards him. Most of these students are, of course, members of Dumbledore's army.

Personality: Silas certainly fits the description of a stereotypical Slytherin. Cold, calculating and cunning, with a dash of charm and good looks thrown into the mix for good measure. Being 'civil' isn't at the top of the list for him, especially if he's not conversing with a fellow pureblood. Anyone below that blood status and Silas takes every chance he gets to sneer down and critisize them for the smallest of things. He certainly feels he is better than most people and he often wastes no time in letting them know that. However, he does have his moments and can be 'kind' and outgoing at times, but again this happens when in the company of purebloods. Naturally, he is very picky about those he spends his time with.

Wand Type: Ebony, 13 inches, Slighty Supple, Dragon Heartstring core.

Special Talents: Silas is very skilled in offensive magic, often managing to stun or paralyse his targets within a few moments of spotting them.

Fears/Weaknesses: Silas has a slight fear of heights, though this does not seem to effect him when flying upon a broomstick. The fear spans from a time when his grandfather cast the levicorpus curse on him at a family gathering, for no apparent reason other than for fun.

Due to his skill in offensive magic, and his offensove strategies, he has a weakness with defensive spells. Though he can cast them, some spells, such as the protego charm, may only last for a few seconds, or crumble after one spell hits it rather than the length of time some others are known to last.

Name: Mark Crane
Appearance:
Age: 18
What Are You? Mudblood
House: Ravenclaw
Year At Hogwarts: 7
Bio: When he was a child, every time he got too angry things around him started to move. At first they just vibrated or spun, but as he got older the items got bigger and moved faster. His parents, believing he must be possessed by a demon, took him to their pastor to get rid of the demon, but, though it would go away for a few days out of fear, it always came back. Because of this he didn't have any friends, so he spent his time reading and studying, sneaking other books, including comic books, when his parents made him do "bible study".
When he was ten his 22 year old cousin, Philip, came home to visit from where work had transferred him, in London, and brought his pregnant wife, Violet. When he left he had a proposal for Mark's parents: let them take Mark with them back to England. Because they were afraid of Mark, Mark'sparents let him go, relieved to get rid of the "devil child" that had ruined their lives.
About a week after he arrived in England he saw Violet's wooden "hairpin" lying on the table during one of his tantrums and picked it up, only to cause a blue flash of light that threw him backward. After that they had no choice but to tell him about the magical world. Once he had learned to not knock himself down when using Philip's wand, an old one of Violet's, they took him to Daigon alley to get his own wand, as he would be sent to Hogwarts in a few months and they wanted him to study before he went there so he wouldn't be too far behind. After a few months at school, he realized that, while his wand excelled at charms and healing spells, it was practically worthless at curses, jinxes, and the like.
When he was a Junior he used his knowledge of Wandlore to make his own second wand. Though it wasn't of very good quality, it was three times better at jinxes and curses than his other wand.
Personality: Studies situations to look for weaknesses. Prefers the study of theory to the practice of actual spells.
Wand Type: First: Ten and one half inches, Unicorn hair core, Cherry wood; Second: Ten inches, Kelpie hair, Oak
Special Talents: Healing, Charms, Protection, Levitation
Fears/Weaknesses: Curses, jinxs, etc are weak.
