I guess that’s because I thought the focus on herbology, potions, her wand, and her good-natured personality would’ve made that abundantly clear but I’m a presumptuous dunderhead who might’ve been wrong in this case.


Confucius, he say: "When speaking to Jig or submitting something to the Laser of JusticeTM, spell things out as though to an idiot."

It's not remotely standard Hogwarts education by any article I can find on HP wiki (I've been looking frantically in the past twenty minutes) that students be trained to heal anything, really, beyond the equivalent of basic first aid - presumably because the chance that they could make things vastly worse (lookin' at you, Gilderoy) is so high. If you want to give yourself some healing stats, that's cool. In that case, I'll probably bump Will's down to negligible and maybe let him focus on being a Paladin of Duelling Strength instead.

PS: I hope my Laser of JusticeTM isn't upsetting anybody. Many of you know what I'm like and I hope know not to take my quibbling personally.

The mighty Jig is of course right. I would definitely like to buff Elizabeth’s stats (to a reasonable point) and maybe revise a mention of her focusing on healing magic or w/e.

I was also thinking of protective wards too, but hey

One more for the "Jig is right" chalkboard.

Cool. See earlier posts of mine for my policy on maximum healing stats and similar characters (tl;dr - 7 max, no thank you, respectively) and draw my attention to any tweakery for further judicial lasering.

@Gowi

If Elizabeth did take some private courses with the Matron, I can see her and Elise being friends, possibly? They have the same protective nature for their friends.

Also @Jig another thing for the relationship chart maybe, Mary and Elise being cousins.

We were told to talk about it yes?

Either I'm blind or I don't see anything on a policy for healing stats?

I'm blind


I'd also like you to bump that stat down to a maximum of 7. Healing isn't taught at Hogwarts and requires extensive training, in much the same way one doesn't leave school as a trained doctor. I'm happy to say that she has received personal tuition from the matron at Hogwarts and/or father (as is exactly the case with Will - they could've shared lessons), but, apart from anything else, having an amazing healer in the gang slightly reduces the sense of jeopardy, if you get me.


You're blind. :P
No but really it wasn't a major flag or anything. Just don't want to be inconsistent.

Ayup, you definitely were :D

I think Jig is obsessed with being right…

Anyway, I’ve made the adjustments in the char tab but it’s pretty much just a footnote and some number shifts (I lowered dueling, for example).

If Elizabeth did take some private courses with the Matron, I can see her and Elise being friends, possibly? They have the same protective nature for their friends.

I think now that the cat is out of the proverbial bag that Elizabeth is supposed to have the healing sort of lean as a magical student, yeah it’d probably be sane that she’d study under the matron or w/e. I’m not really super-into Harry Potter so I really have no idea what I’m doing and the lore isn’t really ingrained into my head. As for Elise/Liza being friends it is possible but we have to take into account if there would be any rivalry or tension between the two as well?

Obsession or a proven track record? :P

Anyhoo: will bodge Will's stats to give space for the proper healers. Not that this will stop him attempting to help/take charge.

I mean it’s not like Elizabeth is also of Ravenclaw like he is or anything…

Then Elizabeth and Ross can totally hang out together in the Drama-Free Zone®. :D

Elise isn't the kind of person to have a rival without a good reason, so they could be friends.

Don't sweat it. If you're prepared to use the HP wikia for things you're sure you don't know (based on the sheet, I wouldn't have known you weren't an aficionado so I assume you did exactly that) and are willing to acknowledge the authority of the Laser of JusticeTM, then I can spare you the Death Ray of Divine RetributionTM.

In other news, I'm scouting for 1+ gutsy female characters to have previously been Will's girlfriend in the past two or three years, only for them to find out he's utterly insufferable and to break it off with him.

Have, in further other news, bodged his duelling up to the maximum of 10, his Potions up to 8, and his healing down to 4. I hope our more credible mediwitches are able to stop him from 'helping' should anybody get injured.

Okay well... this means Elise is not going to be Will's fan... if it ended badly.

Let us consult PM's.

PS: [@Everybody] - I love the talking to each other. May there be much more and maximum drama.

@ravenDivinity I noticed Ross plays the piano, and Elise sings, so maybe they would know one another, or more? *shrugs*

Quidditch players will know Mary. Fans of the school team will know her as a chaser. She was good but not excellent and no where near good enough to go pro.

@kittyluna45: I guess that could be a connection, but I don't think it would ever come up in Ross' time at Hogwarts, considering he prefers to be private about a lot of his creative pursuits.
