For simplicity sake I just made the year at school = their age minus 10. So a 17 yr. Old would be a 7th year.

(In real life school it's 10th or 11th grade.)

Your supposed to post in the ooc so i can okay it before moving it to the characters tab
If he's 18 he'd be an 8th year student. 6th year students are sixteen.
Otherwise it's great. :>

@Always

NAME
Jonathan Leon Conrad

NICKNAME
Lee, Johnny

AGE
18

GENDER
male

SEXUALITY
Heterosexual

RELATIONSHIP STATUS
single

YEAR
8th

WAND
(12.5' yew) A very dark colored wand with a dragon heartstring core, Johnny's wand has a grip at the base with etched in carvings. The rest of the wand is pretty basic with a black finish

TALENT
Johnny excels in hexes and curses. His teachers have both praised him about this and warned him about the dangers of it

PATRONUS



BOGGART
His fear is and always has manifested itself as the ocean

BLOOD STATUS
Pureblood

PET
Johnny has a pet husky, who unlike him is very friendly towards strangers, but don't let its kindness fool you, as it is just as likely to treat you like a chew toy as it is to lick you. It is usually seen walking with him in the mornings before class

APPEARANCE
Johnny's eyes are a very dark brown, so staring into them is almost like staring at a black cup of coffee. This description is almost fitting for his personality, as he tends to have a very bland look on his face. While his natural hair color is brown, he shows a bit of a rebellious side by bleaching his hair and mixing it with his natural color. His hairstyle is a bit on the shaggy side and he keeps it at neck length. His choice of clothing is very plain in nature, as he can normally be seen wearing a black long sleeved shirt with designs on the sleeves and wears a pair of blue jeans. As far as jewelry is concerned, he wears two necklaces and a ring.

PERSONALITY
Johnny is a very solitary person and prefers to stay to himself, so when it comes to friends, he keeps his inner circle very exclusive. The best word to use in order to describe him is a loner, as he is one by nature. Upon first meeting him, if you are someone he is not comfortable with, he can come off as very cold and standoffish. Until he gets used to a person, he will not talk much around new people unless he has something important to say. If a person does become part of his inner circle, they can expect to be treated like it, as he takes care of his friends, even if he does not always show it. Unfortunately he has those days where he just needs time to himself, so no one should take it personally if does not seem responsive. Johnny likes being alone, reading (especially comic books), and studying. He hates meeting new people, not getting some time to himself, and ignorance.

PLACE OF ORIGIN
Sidney, Australia but moved to Winter park, Florida

HISTORY
Johnny is the youngest son of two very well known aurors and members of ravenclaw at Hogwarts, at least around the ministry of magic, as well as the third child of two sisters. Because he comes from a family of Aurors, he learned many things such as stealth, secrecy, concealment, and Disguise. Both of his parents were purebloods who went deep undercover in Australia to track a few dark wizards hiding out. They eventually stayed there after the job was done and settled down to raise a family. Johnny and his two sisters stayed there until he was six when his parents decided to move back to the U.S. in order for for their kids to attend Riverwing.

His two sisters graduated with honors from Riverwing and joined the ministry of magic. One became a part of the Department of regulation and control of magical creatures, while the other went on to become an auror in the ministry of magic. He got his acceptance letter to Riverwood at the ripe old age of eleven and took to studying hexes and jinxes in the defense against the dark arts classes. He is not the best at transfigurations, herbology, or potions.

EXTRA
He had an australian accent when he was younger, which he has taken classes to get rid of, however from time to time you can still hear it if you listen closely

Is this still open to people? I'd love to join ^^

Couple of questions though:
1. Could I have a character that had moved from England to America, perhaps in order to escape from Voldemort/The DE's once the war started?
2. Would it be okay to make a Parselmouth?
3. When you say snakes are okay as pets, what size snake are we talking? XD Like would a big 8ft+ python/boa be okay or would something smaller like a corn snake/ball python be more what you were after? I don't mind either way, just wanted to make sure what size snake was ok :P

@The Elvenqueen
Yeah but get your character up soon. We're starting once I get a post up.

Answers:
1. It'd be their parents fleeing, voldemort was defeated 30 years prior to this
2. Yes but have a reason.
3. I thing anything bigger than dof size is a little to big so maybe a smaller snake (like 5 ft tops). Snakes as pets are fine though.

Fair enough, yeah I meant that the parent(s) would have fled and my char would have gone with them.
One of her parents would have been one and she would have inherited it from them dw, it wasn't just going to be a random Parselmouth promise xP

...though I suppose it'd be better if I made a male char now wouldn't it, since there are so many girls? .__.

@Classpet Alrighty, here's what I've got if it's okay?



NAME
Melanie Ariana Stryder

NICKNAME Mel

AGE
16

GENDER Female

SEXUALITY Bisexual

RELATIONSHIP STATUS
Currently single, will see what happens

YEAR
Sixth

WAND
(Yew Wood, 12 inches ) This wand is an heirloom wand, with a Basilisk Fang core, that once belonged to Mel's father, when he fell during Voldemort's war it was the only thing that was retrieved, and when Mel was enrolled in Riverwing, her mother passed the wand down to her. It is a sturdy wand, somewhat flexible. It is somewhat curved in shape, with the handle carved to look like a cobra's head


TALENT
Mel is a Parselmouth, like her father was, though magical abilities wise her greatest talent is for Potions.

PATRONUS
A


BOGGART
Spiders!! --The bigger, the worse!

BLOOD STATUS
Pureblood

PET
Yes. Mel's pet is a female corn snake named Kindle, who she has had since she was 13


APPEARANCE
In height, Melaie is considered the upper end of average, at 5 feet 9 inches, with pale/porcelain skin and straw-blonde (picture is slightly lighter than actual but none of the darker shade ones suited her) curly hair that reaches her shoulders, chocolate brown eyes. She dresses smart casual e.g. jeans, polo shirt/jumper/jacket, you won't catch her dead in a skirt/dress or tracksuit!

PERSONALITY
Stubborn and determined, Melanie will never back down from a challenge, so don't butt heads with her if you're someone who isn't prepared for that; she holds grudges for a LONG time and finds it very difficult to forgive people if they've done something bad against her or one of her friends. Often sarcastic and snappy, she's not particularly patient either and will often respond sooner with a sarcastic retort rather than a kind comment, but if you can learn to deal with that she can be a decent enough friend and will usually stick by you...but if you expect her to squish a spider for you, you can get lost! She's absolutely terrified of them and would sooner scream and run than try and fight back against one, whether it's a house spider or a behemoth like Aragog was, it makes no difference to her.
As a Parselmouth she has a close connection with snakes and is never seen anywhere without her pet snake Kindle, who she even hides in her pocket or bag during lessons--they haven't been caught yet!

(hope this is detailed enough, I can expand/add more if you need me to)

PLACE OF ORIGIN
Born in England, but now lives in Pasadena.

HISTORY

Born in England and lived there for a short time with both of her parents. They had always been a part of the Wizarding world, both working in the Ministry; her father was an Auror while her mother worked more on the Administration side. Her father was secretly a Death Eater, and this was largely kept from Melanie until Voldemort's return whereby her father returned to serve his old master. During one of the many battles in the war that ensued, her father was slain, and one of his fellow Death Eaters managed to retrieve his wand which they returned to Mel's mother.

Fearing that when she came of age the Death Eaters may force Mel into their ranks, in order to escape from Voldemort's grasp, Mel's mother relocated her shortly before her 11th birthday and before she could be enrolled at Hogwarts. They moved to Pasadena in America, and settled into a fairly relaxed and "normal" life. It wasn't long before the Riverwing letter arrived, and overjoyed that her daughter might still receive a wizarding education, Mel was immediately enrolled. In her third year, it was discovered that Mel possessed the Parselmouth gift like her father after her mother found her having a conversation with a wild snake she had found in their garden during one of her breaks at home away from Riverwing. It was shortly after that that her mother purchased her Kindle as a pet to take back with her to the castle, and the two have been inseparable ever since. In fifth year, she began to develop a more in depth interest in Potions and excelled in those lessons, it is now her best subject.

She hopes to eventually become a private Potions tutor, or something of that sort c:

EXTRA
If you can't tell, yes, I really love snakes x'3 ...guess I could give co-GMing a go if you needed it. *shrug*

Ic is up

The most important parts are the first bit and the last bit (the middle being my character Oliver's personal life, he's a huge nerd). I wrote a lot :0!
What you need to know for your first post:

Do your character waking up, (maybe doing some stuff and then) apperating to the entrance hall, signing in, unpacking and finally going to the dining hall. Anything else you want to add in is wonderful too, I can't wait to see what you all come up with :>!!

-Most if not all students have bags that have been magically enhanced to hold much much more than they should be able to and weigh almost nothing!
-Letters apperate at 7:30 AMish.
-Lots of wizard families employ house elves, enslaving them is not a thing in America. wages range but are generally low.
-6th years are on the 3rd floor dorms. 7th & 8th years are on the 4th floor dorms.
-make sure to end your post in the dining hall
-PM me any questions and have fun :>

They're split up by age/year and gender. But for the most part there isn't any in school rivalry or "houses".
