Name: Orrin DesatrosAge: 17Year: 4Heritage: HalfbloodHouse: SlytherinWand: 10" Black Walnut, Unicorn CoreBio: Despite being sorted into the house of Slytherin, Orrin was born to a muggle mother and a wizard father. Throughout his young life and early teens, Orrin was given various hints by his parents on his heritage and latent abilities, conditioning him to seek answers on his own and eventually come to his own conclusions. He eventually was able to discover the truth about who his father was and what that entailed for him, after which he received his letter from Hogwarts. This was... obviously satisfying for Orrin, mainly because he honestly felt out of place in the muggle world, often feeling that there was something missing from his life and that there was no real future to be found in their realm. Personality: Can I just RP this out? I'm not really good with this part of any app.Favorite Subject: Hexes and Jinxes (will change if necessary)Other: Things probably subject to change--- This took too long to write, I think I'm losing my skill in creating characters. Buck me. Also had to use the wand I got in the Pottermore quiz, because I am too tired to just go and research every type of wand there is right now....I'm not completely satisfied with this application, but it'll have to do for now...


how is he in his fourth year if he's seventeen? he would ether be a sixth year or seventh year at that age.

What's with the thestral hair wands. I think I've seen at least two of them. I'm pretty sure reliable wands with cores other than the three Ollivander uses are pretty rare. I mean isn't the only thestral hair wand we know of the Elder Wand?

Yes. Supposedly its very powerful, but is incredibly hard to use.

Does that mean people are trying to be more powerful than everyone else? That sounds like God-modding

I suppose that it could be close to god modding.

http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Thestral_tail_hair

A Thestral tail hair is a hair taken from the tail of a Thestral, and is used as a wand core. It is regarded as an unstable, if not difficult substance to use in wand making, though Veela Hair is also described as such, but has been successfully utilised.

Also, there's this from the wiki

It is assumed that one must be able to see Thestrals in order to utilise their hair, and since one must witness death first-hand to see a Thestral, anyone wishing to forge a wand with the hair must witness death, tying in with the story of being "Master of Death." It is unknown if the tail hair would be invisible to a wandmaker who had not seen death, as a Thestral would be, or if it can be seen once its separated from the Thestral

Honestly, I just don't think it's a good idea do have a Thestral hair wand >_>

I think that last paragraph is just referring to actually using the hair itself. As in, you can't exactly collect a thestral hair if you can't see it. As far as using the wand, I don't think that would affect it. Still though, to use a core that we only know to have been used in what is the most powerful wand anyone knows about is kind of much.

I mean according to official information, Ollivander only trusts the main three we know about to be of good quality. Yes we could have something else, but unless there's some justification I imagine any wand not using those three cores would cause some trouble with its owner.

Meh, I had severe writer's block when I made this. I'll revise soon enough.

Doesn't stop anyone from trying to be OP though. Having certain skills or knowledge to set your character apart is fine, but I think that basically having the potential to outdo everyone is risky.

The people who are using Thestral hair didn't explain why their character is using a type of wand that is different from the main three wand cores

Back from school, gonna go to work soon.

Let me clarify my choices in my character:

I dislike looking things up on the wiki to decide my character, as I like to use my imaginative skills and creativity to mold any creation I make, That's why I chose the Thestral hair wand. Because it was one of the things I remembered from a cool HP ff, and Thestrals look badass in general.

If there's a problem with the choice, which there seems to be anyway, I'll go ahead and change it right now. Or on my phone. I have to go get gas.

I think that we should wait for the GM to approve/disapprove of the thestral hair wands :)

I can't eat sweets.

I changed my character's core, so there shouldn't be much argument. I'm going to head off now. Ja ne.

There's this one problem I have, and I don't want to limit anybody's creativity or anything, but I don't think there should be an animagi. For one, it is EXTREMELY difficult to become an animagus and there's not much information on the process, but in the books there were no mentions of any animagi who were still in school when they became it other than the Marauders (Which don't count since they are kind of a special case). I mean, it could make more sense if you were in 7th year...though not by much. And think of school work, OWLs AND animagus training on top of it. Anyways, this is just my opinion.

I also saw this, and thought it a bit odd that she would be able to be one. I should really remember to mention concerns like this xP
