Character Name: Dean Lightfoot
Age: 15
Gender: Male

Appearance:

Personality: Dean is a bit of a weird one, indeed. Well, he's not really weird, he's just... abnormal. Unlike a lot of other students in his year - Dean finds Quidditch to be horribly boring to the point that he could fall asleep during the matches, when occasionally coerced into watching a game. Still though, that doesn't mean he's a bad kid, he's just labelled as a little weird.

In fact, you'd be hard-pressed to find Dean without a cheesy grin plastered across his features and a confused but rather cheeky glint in his eyes. That's who he is - he just likes to entertain people and using his vast array of sarcastic rhetoric, he usually wins that mission. Don't get me wrong; he doesn't offend other people a lot and he doesn't have to make a fool out of himself to make others smile (excluding Ailsa Carrow and/or dementors).

Usually, he's the type of person that is simply a blur of positive energy and will stop at nothing to get someone to smile. That's earned himself a good few friends and conversely, makes him quite a few enemies as well. Well, that and being born from two muggle parents. Anyhow, apart from his giddy and childlike behaviour, he really is a great person to be friends with and is surprisingly good at keeping secrets.

House: Gladium

Bio: Magical world full of witches, wizards and everything in between? To convince the the two Lightfoots that, in fact, everything they had learnt about the world in their professions of science, was slightly flawed; would be nearly impossible. Still though, even they could not explain why strange things seemed to follow their youngest son like the plague and there other children seemed exempt from it.

When the letter came from Salem Academy, they almost took it to be a joke if it weren't for the feathery-deliver of said letter. Life up until then was a little stained for him - fitting in wasn't a profession that he was skilled at and despite trying every single trick in the book, girls were off-limits. Still though, his sarcastic humour that developed seemed to be proficient enough to garner him a few friends.

Character Name
Lamont Jacob Belfour

Age
15

Gender
Male

Appearance
Tall at almost six foot and a little awkward. His shoulders are a little to big for his weight, but he seems to add a pound every couple of months this last year, the boy coming into his body more. His muscles are even starting to look more defined. His light muddy brown eyes are often crinkled up in a smile that makes his charming face light up even more. Black, slightly wavy hair kept short.

Personality
Lamont is that quite southern gentlemen. While he can, and does, talk rather loudly, he’s polite and respectful until you anger him. Then he’s a raging bull to be avoided at all cost. He can be a bit of a spitfire when occasion calls for it but more often than not he is the slow and friendly sorta fellow. He’s always trying to see the good in people and not dwell on what very well maybe a very awful thing about them.

House
Gladium

Bio
Lamont was born to American mother and French father down in a small farm town outside Atlanta, Georgia. His parents, both purebloods, raised him in a hard working home that didn't rely on magic to do a whole lot. There was tension in town though because of the inter-racial marriage of his parents. Lamont though, went unbothered by the words and insults tossed at him and his mother for most of his early childhood. Even now he doesn't take offense to them, just takes them and laughs them away knowing them all to just be fools. He was relieved when his letter came for the Salem Academy, hoping to escape the South and some of the prejudices there. Mostly now, he gets picked on for his way of talking. Which still doesn't bother him. And at least no one is making fun of his momma anymore.

Skills
Strengths
*He's a good cook, which doesn't do him a lot of good in school, but makes him feel better when he's at home and can take care of his parents some.
*Very compassionate with animals, magical or otherwise and seems to have 'ranger/druid' animal attraction with them. Especially dangerous kinds of animals.
*Transfiguration is one of the easier classes for him and he has pranked a few friends by changing their books or clothes into other things just when they were in need of them.

Weaknesses
*Sometimes a little to naive or forgiving. Has on occasion let people walk all over him before he stood his ground to defend himself.
*His temper can get the better of him sometimes and it's landed him a in a deal of trouble growing up.

Classes
The required for fifth years with Care of Magical Creatures and Divination as electives.

Wand
Maple, 10", Hippogriff feather core.

Pet
A big old tomcat named Mister Fancy Paws (when he was eight), normally just called Mister. He's a tuxedo cat with white on his chest, his front two paws, his right ear, and the tip of his tail.

Yeah! They've known for about four years now!

This still alive?

I'm here just waiting for something to interact with

I had a very busy weekend and Monday was catch up day. Hopefully get a post for Lamont done today.

Methinks we need to timeskip.

Sure! Sounds like a good idea but there's a few people who haven't replied.

We have been waiting for a few weeks now, there is a point where we have to put our foot down and move on else the RP will end up dying.

^agreed. I'm fine with waiting, but we can only do it so long. Perhaps a gentle poke to those we're waiting on and if they don't reply here, ICly, or to the PM within a day we skip forward some and they just have to catch up.

Right, so if I write a post out now with the students arriving and then, said people have the opportunity to post and if they don't, we'll move on?

Ah sorta? You could make a post here that gives them a day then we move on? I'm not a very good GM soooooooo
