Everyone hates divination, astronomy and music! Die! Ahahaha!

I might actually add Astronomy to my Classes list, but I'm not sure.

Also, a lot of witches and wizards view Divination as basically worthless.

@Tatsua Aiisen

Too right. Divination can be cool though.

If there isn't already somebody making one, I'm going to make a divination teacher.

Oh yeah - that's a centaur!!

Am I throwing myself in the deep end if I say I'll do a potions or DADA professor? :P

So how's this?

Name: Abel Christopher Santos



Age: 16
Year: 6
House: Hufflepuff
Classes taken: Charms, Astronomy, Potions, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Herbology, Care of Magical Creatures

Short bio:
Abel grew up the son of a pureblood witch and Muggle born wizard. Having experienced the effects of the war, they not only greatly treasured their only son, they made sure to hammer into him the idea of being accepting of all kinds. “Bonds between people won the war” they used to remind him. As such, Abel grew up a friendly, and confident boy. At a young age he discovered a love of the radio. While he’d seen Muggle televisions with both their visuals and sound, something about the Wizarding Wireless Network caught his attention. His father tracked down some recordings of the old Potterwatch broadcasts and they solidified his love of the wireless. He was fascinated by these brave people who chose to use this medium to not only oppose You-Know-Who, but to keep up spirits as well.

At Hogwarts he was sorted into Hufflepuff, and quickly took to the school. He found himself most at home in the classes concerning the natural world. Herbology and eventually Care of Magical Creatures quickly became his favorite subjects. He found a huge obstacle in Transfiguration which quickly proved to be his most hated subject as he simply could not get it, despite his decent performance in the theoretical aspects. By his fourth year he had fully given up on ever mastering the subject. He is a rather well-liked individual among his teachers and peers and got acquainted with quite a few of the young witches at Hogwarts in the upper years. Despite his enthusiasm for Quidditch, he simply cannot fly, but he’s more than satisfied with having taken over the commentator post. In his time, he's managed to become familiar with not only the student body, but the castle and grounds, along with some areas he could probably get in trouble for.

Personality:
Abel is a people person and is good at helping people feel included and welcome. He remembers just about everyone that he meets and can form a friendship rather quickly, though he does have those few people he values above all else. He's a bit of a charmer and likes to make friends with just about everyone. He thrives off the energy of other people and is at home in large groups, everywhere from an outing, to a party, to a Quidditch match. While he is capable of holding a good conversation one-on-one, he tends to dominate a conversation in groups larger than three people. Abel considers himself a lifelong learner, and believes that if you go to be without experiencing or learning something new, you may as well have not even woken up. While friendly, Abel can be a bit self-centered. He cannot understand those who dislike social situations for whatever reason, and can be insistent on getting them to "open up" and join in against their will. If allowed, he will talk and talk, holding focus of a conversation on whatever he finds interesting.

Wand: 13" applewood with phoenix feather core, slightly swishy
Patronus: Donkey (yes, really)
Hobbies: Following sports, exploring the grounds, wizard’s chess, football, basketball, gardening, radio-wireless
Pets: A grumpy long-eared owl named Gus
Personal possessions: A radio, a silver ring, a football, a wizard's chess set, an assortment of leaves and roots and feathers and scales and such, the usual student possessions

Relationships: TBD
NPCs: (None for now)

“Why am I awesomeamazing? … Have you heard my voice?”

@Prints Avoid

Fine, accepted!

@Lockerz

Sure, as long as it isn't taken!

@Lockerz I still want to make the DADA proff please

@Kirah Feel free (:

Moved my character. I kinda made him a social butterfly type and said he knows just about everyone so I'm more than open to all friendships, relationships, partnerships, acquaintances, that one annoying guy that keeps trying to get you to stop reading and join the party etc etc. Just hit me up and we'll figure something out.

I'LL BE YOUR FRIEND!!!... Or rather Mary will be his friend. They'd get along.

Cool I have a teacher and a student character so I am content with my additions to he character count. I think I might draft some "lesson plans" Can I get a quick count of how many students are talking Care for Magical Creatures? I can sort of see that most are taking it, but I don't want to miss anyone.

Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor

Name: Kyle McCarthy

Appearance:


Age: 29

House: was in Slytherin

Short bio: Kyle was raised in a family that touted the pure-blood belief, and he believed it. That is until his first year of school, that year he met his wife to be. They became great friends and it wasn't until the next year that everything went wrong. Voldemort's hold on the school shocked the young Kyle and he distanced himself from his family. His mother dying of natural causes, his father in the war, and his sister disappearing after the fall of Voldemort. Kyle decided, since no one else could, that he would find her. He pushed himself until he became an Auror. It took him several years after that to find Maggie, but when he did he was able to defeat her and bring her in. He retired after that, and became a teacher at Hogwarts for DADA.

Personality: Kyle is protective. He is especially protective of those he cares about, a very small group of people. He's reserved with people he doesn't know well.

Wand:
Rowan, 11 2/5, stiff, dragon heart-string.
"An odd combination for an odd boy"

Patronus:
Black Panther (Also his Animagi form)

Hobbies: Reading.

Pets: An owl
Personal possessions: A large assortment of dark detectors. A small library. An extra-denominational trunk.

(Why am I awesome? I'm not tbh)

Oops @tip See above post ^

Changed the photo for my teacher character. Wanted some war wounds from dealing with some of the more dangerous creatures in the magical and muggle world to have left their marks.

Hmm... I wonder if I should take it as a complement that no notice of Miss Night has been posted

Well I suppose I could explore the possibility of starting an interesting adventure on HIH

is this taking in new people?

Alright, here is the updated list... For those of you who are thinking about changing your classes, PLEASE don't do it unless it is absolutely necessary. It takes me forever to go through and do this and it will be even harder to figure out what changes you have made.

Anyways, enjoy! We still need a few more professors.

@makarov

I know we need some teachers still, and Tip wants 5 characters per house, so until those are met, the RP is still open.

Also, I don't think the first post is updated yet, so there are more characters being applied for than that.

@The Muse of Eru I think we have five in each now, but I don't think it matters if we go over... xD We do need professors though...

Working on a Potions dude now...

Since, classes been updated I will just keep to where I am... Sorry divination, Music and Astrology xD
