Just as a note, I plan to have Nolan eventually (and I mean like 2nd/3rd year) have a subject sort of "click" and have that be his specialty. It'll likely be potions.

Alright.
GM
Everyone need s a good portion brewer!!!
Name: Charlotte Marie Springer
Nicknames: She finds both Charlie and Lottie acceptable.
Gender: Female
Age: 11
House: Blank for Sorting Hat
Charlie is as short as her temper, red haired and freckled. Her uniform is rarely in appropriate order, and her hair is either disheveled or tied less-than-neatly to keep it out of her face. She has crooked teeth and refuses to wear the glasses that she needs, carrying them instead in a pocket of her robes.
Wand: Sycamore and Unicorn Hair, 12 inches. The handle is thick for an easy grip, and is carved to have a pommel at the end which curves slightly downward, giving the wand a "top" and "bottom." The shaft is moderately springy, it starts about an eighth of an inch smaller around than the handle, and tapers gently to a quarter inch diameter at the end.
Pet: Male Barn owl named Indiana(as in Jones).
Strengths:
- Adapts easily
- Quick to act
- Makes friends easily
- Difficult to frighten
Weaknesses:
- As quick to anger as she is to action
- Afraid of deep water and cannot swim
- Loses interest quickly unless she cares a great deal about the subject matter
Personality: Charlotte, despite everything, loves both of her dysfunctional parents dearly and will accept any of the various names they use for her. She was a precocious and curious child and is just as likely to find herself out of bounds as of the start of school. She sometimes seems like an adrenaline junky, and is just as happy to climb a cliff face as she is to fly to the top on broomstick. Charlotte is known for being impulsive and brash. School life only agrees with her half of the time. Sitting in class makes her antsy, but practical lessons are plentiful and there's always Care of Herbology to let her get outside for a while.
History:Both of Charlotte's parents are muggles. Her father, Charlie, owns a pub, and he met Charlotte's mother, Marie, when he employed her to tend bar. A one night stand produced Charlotte, and the less-than-willing couple got married before anyone knew Marie was pregnant to avoid a public scandal. Charlie wanted a son to name after himself, but he got a daughter instead, though he'd call her "Charlie" or even "Junior" when he was drunk. Marie retaliated by calling her the much more feminine "Lottie." Having a daughter made Marie think she'd have the best rapport with their child, and was a bit surprised when her daughter took a liking playing adventure games outdoors. Still, she managed to get one over on Lottie's father, who could hardly ever get away from the pub to join them when Charlotte wanted to go camping.
The letter from Hogwarts changed the family's tenuous relationship completely. Now instead of fighting over the attention of their daughter, Charlie and Marie felt equally and oddly detached from their daughter, and came together to try to understand her new world. During holiday after her first year, Charlie closed the pub to join one of Charlotte's camping trips, which now included completely earnest hunts for faeries and unicorns in addition to the usual pretend games. Though Charlie and Marie are closer to each other, the combination of an entire new world, and long months at a boarding school have created a rift between them and their daughter.
Subjects she'll be good at:
Ancient Runes
History
DADA
Care of Magical Creatures

Name: Chandler Griffin Webster
Nickname: None
Gender: Male
Age: 11
House: Ravenclaw
Appearance: 
Wand: Supple 11 inch, Cedar, with Ashwinder Ash core. This wand was in the very back of the wand makers shop when Toby went to buy his gear. The shopkeeper said that it was a somewhat rare core.
Personal items and pets: A black and white spotted kitten named Castiel that his parents gave him.
Magical Heritage: First in the family to have wizarding powers. (Muggle born)
Backstory/Personality: It all really started when Toby turned two, all sorts of unexplainable things would just seem to 'happen'. His parents 32 year old Colton Webster a videogame designer and mother, 30 year old graphic artist Becky Webster were rightly perplexed. They would be walking with Toby and all of a sudden the tot would be holding some kind of candy or be petting a kitten. It wasn't until they caught and watched Toby the little rascal making his food (spinach) disappear that they realized that this boy was special. Being the rare breed of parent they were the two decided that Toby would not be treated any differently and they would allow him to decide how he wanted his future to go.
The future was decided when Toby found out that he could -if he believed and concentrated hard enough- make anything happen! Instead of trying to abuse this Toby instead sat down and started trying to control it, to keep it from controlling his emotions. He was very successful, other than the skill he had Toby grew up as any other British boy would. He enjoyed sports playing rugby and football mostly, but he also loved anything to do with getting his brain active.
As he grew older Toby found that he had a problem learning, or for better explanation he didn't learn things the way others could. For Toby he had to take everything in and formulate everything himself. This meant that it took a long time, sometimes even weeks to totally learn something. However, once he did learn it he never forgot it. Almost like a photographic memory of things he thoroughly picked apart and put back together. Toby is also a very caring person and constantly sticks up for the guys getting bullied in school which of course meant he came home with a lot of bloody shirts.
Special Gifts and Abilities: Toby is very adept at defensive magic, including other white magic like a patronus and the such. He also takes a long time to finally get a spell 'down' sometimes even taking a month. But when he gets it down he can perform it very well.
Strength's: Very adept at White magic in general, has a rare talent with such charms. Photographic memory.
Weaknesses: Is seem as stupid and made fun of as he takes awhile to learn things his own way, he also gets himself into fights a lot.

Name: Syler Martin Everwood
Nickname: None
Gender: Male
Age: 13
Year: Third
House: Slytherin
Appearance: https://31.media.tumblr.com/e82f816c63f693f755f259d3bc0fda8b/tumblr_inline_mznm6uXc1W1r1yj84.gif
Wand: Cypress wood, 12 inches, Manticore Stinger core (heirloom wand), reasonably springy
Personal items and pets: Pet hawk named Shruikan.
Magical Heritage/History-Personality: Pure-blood to the very bone Syler has been raised to hate muggle borns and to make sure everyone else knows it. As a child Syler showed early the signs of a Slytherin. Cold cunning, calculations, ambition, and huge drive to succeed no matter what. The boy started practicing the wand movements and incantations of spells separately trying to get an edge in his classes.
When it came time for his to go to Hogwarts Syler tried to cheer his brother up by promising to teach him the spells he would learn at school, and possibly even write some good notes down about the first year classes. During sorting, the hat barely touched his head when the talking sorting hat screamed "SLYTHERIN!" Syler excelled in his new house noted by the teachers as a bright, easy learning boy who did whatever it took to do great at whatever assignment they were doing. After the first year Syler went home and as promised spent almost the entire holiday with his brother. If anyone in the world could get him to actually relax it was Chase. His second year was spent at least in his head on the quidditch pitch. Syler tried out for and was granted a place on the team as Chaser and like everything else he strove to be the best he could.
Now it's his third year, but most importantly, his little brother will be joining him this time. And Syler can not wait. A few areas that needs improvement as far as classes go is definitely potions, AND anything other than DADA, Charms, and Transfiguration.
Special Gifts and Abilities: A very strong user of offensive magic and dueling. Syler is a force on the dueling team that can never be underestimated.
Strength's: Very strong dueler, Great on a broom.
Weaknesses: Being a student in general, he can be rather rebellious.
-
Name: Ryam Connor Everwood
Nickname: Ry
Gender: Male
Age: 11
House: Slytherin
Appearance: 
Wand: 11 inches, Ashwinder Ash core, springy Hawthorne.
Pet: A white/black striped kitten named Kayle.
Strengths: His mind handles tactics extremely well processing information very quickly, this allows easier time with learning which in turn causes him to excel in studies.
Weaknesses: He is very snobby and as such he hardly has any friend that can stand to be around him, he is very lonely and depressed most of the time.
Personality: Smart, and he knows it. Arrogant, and rude Ryam is the epitome of a self-absorbed genius that thinks he has no need for anyone else in the slightest. With his brother being the only one he can talk to Ryam however is beginning to feel the depression of being alone all the time. He is on the inside a great kid ready to break away from his shell that he has hid in under his father and mother's eyes. Inside he is smart, charismatic, and noble willing to do what is needed to protect anyone that he could befriend.
History: Mostly the same as Syler only being the punching bag of the family, he is constantly hounded to be the Everwood he should be...

Hi! I would love to be a part of this. Hope I'm not too late!
Name: Isadora Sidonie Howell
Nickname(s): Izzy; sometimes called Dora but mostly just by close family members.
Gender: Female
Age: 11
House: Gryffindor
-Average height for her age
-She's naturally thin, but strong
-Usually has a smile on her face
-Either has her hair in a low pony tail or a braid
Wand: Cherry wood, dragon heartstring, 11 inches
Pet: A small gray and white cat named Tallulah (Tally)
Strengths:
Best class is Charms as she seems to be particularly good at them. She’s not so bad when it comes to Potions or Defense Against the Dark Arts either. Despite her small size, she's also actually physically strong and quite good at flying.
Weaknesses:
She hasn’t really gotten the hang of transfiguration yet as it is a bit more complicated to comprehend. Although she’s a bit better at this than with her Care of Magical Creatures class.
Personality: Izzy is strong-willed and stubborn girl. She’s intelligent, but not cocky and is almost always unafraid to speak her mind. Sometimes she has trouble seeing things from other perspectives due to her passionate personality, but she tries her hardest to be understanding and not judgmental. Although she’s confident, Izzy has trouble carrying conversations and forming close friendships. You could say she’s just not that outgoing. This is one of her biggest insecurities other than always feeling like she’s not quite good enough. Once she does make a new friend she’ll remain fiercely loyal until the other person gives her a reason not to trust them.
History: Izzy is the second child of Theophilius and Katryn Howell. Her older brother, Terran, has always been much more talented than her. Although she’s always been jealous of him for that, her parents have always given them both the same treatment and an equal amount of love (which is a lot). She’s also never held a huge grudge against Terran, and actually they’re quite close. But there is some sibling rivalry that has always been present. Her mother was a muggleborn, and coincidentally were both doctors. It’s probably the reason why she decided to work as a Healer. Her father is a half-blood and met his wife at Hogwarts. Because her parents both had full time jobs, Izzy and Terran were usually looked after by her Aunt Tilda. This is how she became so close to her cousin, Fiona. She grew up around a lot of magic and couldn’t wait for the day she would get her acceptance letter to Hogwarts, especially once her brother started attending.
NPCs:
-Theophilius Howell-Father-Works for the Ministry of Magic in the Auror Department
-Katryn Howell-Mother-She works as a Healer/Mediwitch for St. Mungo’s Hospital
-Terran Howell-Brother-Three years older than her and sorted in Gryffindor
-Fiona MacDougal-Cousin-Only a month and a half younger than her. She’s also Izzy’s best friend, as they pretty much grew up together.
-Average height for her age
-She's naturally thin, but strong
-Usually has a smile on her face
-Either has her hair in a low pony tail or a braidGM
Great sheets everyone!!!

If you guys have room for one more, I wouldn't mind using my character again, as we didn't really get all that far last time. If you aren't accepting anymore, that's fine. I just thought that I'd ask. :D
GM
Hey Tali! Good to see you ^_^
So hey, can we post in the IC at King's Cross?
Also, wasn't Flitwick head of Ravenclaw? I don't think Binns could be head of anything, he's so detached from the student body.

GM
An interesting question Gisk (about raven-claw)! I should add it to the FAQ...
It is an unconventional swap! Perhaps even controversial. (Feel free to play out the question in game!) Flitwick is still a teacher at Hogwarts (I'll post a more complete teacher list soon) but has stepped down from his position as headmaster. He feels like he is finally feeling his age and wanting to retire.
Unless we are still hashing things out with your character in a PM, you may totally start playing at Kings Cross!
So, as we GM's are still discussing some plot details! So it's pretty much a character sandbox until we catch up ^_^
