[CHAR] Hogwarts: Call of Darkness [Full]

[AbysmalDemon]

Name: Callum Ilmore "Cal"

Age: 11 1/2

Appearance

Personality:
A kind, warmhearted boy, he is known for his intellect. His desire to learn Drives him, and can make him very competitive at times. Exceptionally different for someone who was a 'destined Slytherin' as they told him. Completely unlike his parents, he is modest, and actually has a heart, and wants to have fun, wants to be adventurous. But because of this, he likes to sneak around a lot, and it might cost him a few detentions. But he doesn't care, as long as the detentions involve something like the dark forest.

History:
Callum was born to a rich family in London. While they were Purebloods, they were modest people. They lived in a decent house, in a good neighborhood, with good people. He had a good childhood, with good friends. All in all, his life was great. Until the money came in. While most would think it was great, it was different.

His parents had both gotten high positions in the Ministry, and had a constant stream of money, and lots of it. His parents had turned into rich snobs, caring about no one else, and having 'no time' for their son. He had become neglected by his parents, and now forgotten by friends, since he moved, to a huge mansion, in a rich part of London. They wanted him to live up to their expectations. To act like he should, dress like he should, to be normal. But this was far, far from normal. He was being micromanaged, and that's when he got his letter for Hogwarts. A chance to be free, to be nothing like them, to have friends again.

Now that he had gotten an invitation to Hogwarts, his parents started to notice him more. They bought the stuff he needed, actually talked to him, and even got him a pet. Callum's life had started to look up.

Blood Type:

[Madly33]

Name: Hayes Foley

Age: 11

Appearance

Personality: A high spirited young mind, with the ability to absorb everything. He is a quickly learner, learning to speak and walk quite fast as his father always told him. At most times he is shy though, that being his draw back, unwilling to approach people and make friends, meaning that most his life he has been alone other than his family. He loves to joke and always strives to keep the mood at its peak, even in times of great sadness. He hates the feeling of disappear in fact, he will never show when he is hurting and always make an attempt to cheer others up. This also meaning he will go out of his way to be kind to others, he does not want anyone to hurt.

History: As a infant, his mother cared for him as any mother should, she was loving, kind, forgiving. Anything he could ever want in a mother. They grew up rather secretly in the muggle world, both his Father Albert Foley, and his mother Delaina Foley took part in muggle jobs and lived a rather normal life. Hayes' father told him that he was bound by wizardry and that at the age of 11 he would be sent to Hogwarts: School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, this excited Hayes, he had always wondered of a world beyond their own.

At the age of 9 his father told him of his past at Hogwarts, and how he had loved it there, calling it his second home even. It had been there were he met Delaina and fell in love with the young witch. Hayes dreamed one day to be half the man his father was. Until one day at the age of 10 he disappeared. His mother searched and searched but there was no sign, Hayes, still a young boy would not except his father being gone, and a part of him will always be looking. He hopes to one day use his magic to find him.

Now as the letter invitation to Hogwarts arrived, he squealed with excitement with his mother. His father would have been proud.

Karen Diana Irving McGrave

Age
11

Appearance


Personality

Taciturn, collected, and dislikes becoming too excited. Karen, excluding wand-lore, prizes grace and excellence above all things. Young as she is, she has high standards that she holds herself and others to. She is a deep thinker, and prone to confronting another persons beliefs with her own. The idea of perfection drives her, and consequently, she's sometimes blind to her, and others, limits. Karen feels as if she has already found her direction in life - she moves with pride and with purpose, and always strives towards new heights. This was all due to how she was raised, and her subsequent orphaning.

Still, she does have her childish side. She enjoys teasing her classmates, or at the very least, putting them in awkward situations, but avoids going too far, as this is mainly for her enjoyment and not out of any malice. Karen, despite how high she tries to hold herself, is a very lonely little girl inside.

History

Born to a family of pure-bloods with a reputation for adventure and sudden bouts of inspiring insanity, Karen looked around her and saw giants. Each and everyone in her family were accomplished witches and wizards, some notable figures publicly, others choosing to conceal their talents for anonymity. Her parents were a group from the latter - they both were wand makers, and very good ones. However, not once did they ever sell their creations; they spent their whole life on research only, and relied on other sources to produce money.

Their research took them to strange and dangerous places, often times leaving behind Karen to be looked after by relatives. Their research was on the creation of the most powerful wand; a wand that could surpass even the fabled Elder Wand. Their hypothesis was that the skill of the wizard was irrelevant, and the key of the wands power should rely solely on the wand itself. To that end, they believed that to create the most powerful wand, only the best materials should be used during its crafting.

Over the course of ten years, the year after Karen was born, they went travelling around the world, chasing rumors and legends, mythical even by wizarding standards. They went after one mythical monster after the next, only returning home to compile and store their research and prototypes. Eventually, however, their adventuring took them too far and too deep into the mysteries of the world. They were in Africa when they disappeared, the only thing left of their existence was their research, and a packaged that arrived a week before, containing a wand, and addressed to Karen.

Karen, heartbroken at the time, vowed to continue their work, even if it killed her. Though they didn't spend much time with her, they were parents who genuinely loved her - their only mistake was to take a foot into the wrong direction. Their research took them to places where no one could return from, physically and mentally.

Blood Status
Pure Blood

Wand: Wood from Hyperion's branches & Phoenix Tail Feather Core / 10 inches

Pet: Elijah

Elijah is her friend, and one of two stalwart protectors. He's been with her since she was young, and has always alerted her to dangerous magical activity when nearby.

[SouffleGirl123]

Name: Anna-Jayne Olivia Murphy (a.k.a. Anna. She has been called AJ by her peers before Hogwarts, it's not a nickname she encourages but she not going to stop you from using it)

Age: 11 1/2

Appearance

Personality: Anna-Jayne is intelligent. caring and extremely determined. She has a very logical mind and thrives on knowledge which she gains through hard work and dedication over natural ability. She has no problem with being herself no matter want position it puts her in and doesn't strive for popularity over a few close friends. She considers herself a realist although sometimes she can come off pessimistic, expecting the worst at times. Very rarely does she share an optimistic side. Anna-Jayne does have a kind heart but she's not afraid to speak her mind or make the occasional sarcastic comment which may lead her into the occasional fight with her peers. She is very protective and loyal toward her friends and loved ones, if you hurt someone close to her in any form she finds it hard to forgive and forget.

History: Being the oldest of 4 kids Anna-Jayne felt she had to grow up quite quickly as her father traveled occasionally for work. Her childhood was particularly interesting. Her mother taught her to read at quite a young age and she had loved books for as long as she could remember. She was often questioning and learning so when she started school she, obviously, had a lot of love for it. She didn't really run into much bullying until she was about 9, when being smart wasn't really cool among her peers anymore.

As time went on her father's travels became more and more frequent and it was lucky if he spent a full week with his family at a time, not including the 3 week break he'd get each year, so Anna-Jayne's grandmother moved in to help her daughter-in-law on the often occasion of her son's absence. Anna-Jayne's relationship with her grandmother only grew. Her grandmother would often tell her stories of her days at Hogwarts which, despite her grandmother often insisting they were truth, Anna-Jayne considered them made up stories until the letter came. Her grandmother proceeded to do anything and everything possible to get her granddaughter ready for her first year.

Blood Status: Strictly speaking she is muggleborn, however her grandmother from her father's side is a witch

Wand: 10 inches, Chestnut, unicorn hair core

Pet

Felix was the family cat but only Anna-Jayne was often the one who offered the cat the most care so Felix eventually became dubbed her pet.

Name
Lavender (don’t call me Lav!) James

Age
Lavender turned 11 in April

appearance

Appearance
Lavender is tall, well built and rather strong but not very athletic. She usually wears her black hair in a pony tail. Her sparkly green eyes may look innocent, but do not let her appearance deceive you.

Personality
Lavender is an open, outgoing, friendly girl. Intelligent, quick witted and mischievous, Lavender does very well in school and takes pride in her academic achievements. Her playful manner ensures she always has plenty of friends who enjoy her company and sense of adventure.

History
Lavender is adopted. This is uncommon in the wizarding world, but there you have it. Her biological parents were considered strange, and didn’t mingle with the townsfolk. When they were killed in a freak explosion that destroyed their house, leaving little baby Lavender completely unharmed amidst the rubble, nobody knew what to do with the girl. One of the first responders was an open minded young man. He and his wife had been trying for a baby for a long time. Rather than abandoning Lavender to the harsh reality of foster care and social services, he offered to take the little bundle of joy home, fully aware of the implications and the risk of having to give her up again.

When no relatives appeared to claim the little rascal, her foster parents filed the adoption papers. They had fallen in love with the intelligent and mischievous little girl and quickly learned to deal with the strange things that always seemed to happen when Lavender was around.
When the Headmistress of Hogwarts came to their house to explain to Lavender that she was a witch and that her biological parents had been magical folk as well (the explosion turned out to be a failed attempt at inventing a new potion or spell), a lot of things fell into place for the young girl. Lavender’s parents fully support her going to Hogwarts and are thrilled to see all the marvels and wonders Diagon Alley and the magical world have to offer.

BloodType
Full blood. But having been raised by muggles means Lavender does not know whether this is relevant, or should be.

Wand
Willow, 10 1/4, with a core of Veela hair.

Wand

Pet
Intrigued by the idea of owl post, and eager to keep in touch without setting her apart from her peers, Lavender’s parents bought her a barn owl in Diagon Alley. Lavender named her April, because, like her, the owl was born in that month.

[LordofthePies]

Name: Bishop King (aka Shop. He isn't a fan of his nickname, so only certain people can use it.)

Age: 12

Appearance:


Personality: He is very calm in situations where everyone is panicking and doesn't scare easily. His short temper is something to be wary of, his calmly dementor workshop away if you push the right buttons. He tells things like they are, even if it means losing a friend or having a grade drop. He's a pretty laid back person considering the fact that he's easier to anger. He would rather die than be disloyal to anyone, even a complete stranger. He prefers to stay inside and read, but if forced to do something he will do it to the best of his ability.

History: His mother died a few weeks after giving birth to his younger brother. His father had a difficult time paying for the family and ended up marrying a rich widow, who later killed his brother in a car wreck. Upset with his father for not divorcing the woman after she had been sent to prison for murder, he ran away from home at age seven. He avoided heavily populated places, trying desperately to avoid his father, afraid that both parents would hate him and he would have a fate similar to his brother's. He lived off of dumpster scraps and the occasional sqirrel, but never complained about his meal or his hole filled shoes. He was always foraging, whether it was for shoes or a meal. He ended up living in a flipped over train car before receiving his letter at age 12, which made him smile for the first time in years. After receiving the letter he rushed to make sure he had everything. He had what he needed, all but a decent pair of shoes.

Blood Status: Half-blood

Wand: 10 inches, Cedar, Thestral tail hair.

Pet: Veil the Rat

[Weird Tales]

Name: Isaak Boyars

Age: 11

Appearance:

Personality: Like with most Slytherins, Isaak is arrogant, ambitious and harsh when it comes to voicing his opposition against something he does not believe in. But despite those aspects of his personality, he does have good qualities about him such as being very loyal to his friends and very determined to do his best at becoming a great wizard. He also holds his family in the highest regard and loves them very much. His views on muggleborns is not as ignorant as some of his fellow Slytherins but he does feel like they do not belong in the prestigious houses like Slytherin, Gryffindor and Ravenclaw. He also looks down upon Hufflepuffs and thinks of them as underachievers. And finally, Isaak is incredibly proud to be a Slytherin and will argue fervently with anyone who insults the house.

History: His family is strongly tied to the Boyars of old eastern Europe who were among some of the most prestigious families in Bulgaria and Russia during the middle ages. The Boyars were not only powerful among the muggles of eastern Europe, they were also among the noblest of wizarding bloodlines in Europe. Isaak's family moved to England over two hundred years ago, and it was almost like a tradition to have a member of their family to attend Hogwarts of School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and they all went into Slytherin.

Isaak was taught that the history of his family was one of the greatest among the wizarding families and to be proud of his heritage. Living his childhood with his brothers and sister was very good and grew very close to them. Being the oldest meant that Isaak had to be the one brave the unknown of becoming a first year at Hogwarts, and he was afraid of not being placed in Slytherin. His eleventh birthday came and he received his letter of invitation to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He has hopes of joining the Slytherin Quidditch team when he is old enough and he hoped that he could honor his family by getting excellent grades and learning quickly.

Blood Status: pure-blood

[Cruallassar]

Name: Terrance Neston

Age: 12

Appearance: Black mid-length hair swept to one side, green eyes, a sarcastic smirk and a smug demeanor.

Personality: Terrance is good at pushing people's buttons. With a sarcastically smug attitude and a large vocabulary, he is an easy person to either like or hate. He doesn't generally try to irritate people...though when he sees someone whom he doesn't like, or just seems overly snappish, he generally will just for fun. He loves a good challenge, and when one comes up, his expression will change just a bit...his smirk will become less sarcastic and more predatory, his eyes will narrow, and he will try to beat that challenge by any means most expedient. He may also come across as cocky at times. These things said, he can be a good and loyal friend, and although he may seem like an annoying, self-centered SOB, you can rest assured that he has your best interests at heart...right beside his own. :) He prefers black muggle jeans and hoodie to robes, and will probably be seen in that attire often and/or under the robes.

History: Terrance Neston was born to a pureblood family, immersed in magic up to his eyeballs. His father was/is an Auror, and he commonly said that the only dark wizard he was ever likely to be unable to defeat was his mischievous son. Within hours of getting his wand after the letter arrived with his invitation to attend Hogwarts, Terrance had already made shooting harmless hexes at the cat his new favorite thing to do. The cat was appropriately scandalized, we presume it has since settled down in more public areas once again, instead of hiding in terror of its life under beds. His family was most eager to send the kid off to Hogwarts, and was looking forward to the letter arriving for a good time before it came...and after it did, for the term to start. And of course the first thing they did when the letter arrived was to get him his own cat...

Blood Status: Pureblood

Wand: 12.4 inch Oak, with a unicorn hair core.

Pet: A grey short-haired cat named Shade. Will look at you with equal parts dignity and scorn. Luckily Terrance liked him too much to start trying to hex him. Also likes Terrance, luckily.

[Classpet]

Name: Brynn Green

Age: 11

Appearance: A short, pale gal with big hazel colour eyes that make her look permanently interested in anything. Her hair is a short red-brown bob.

This cutie

Personality:
Brynn was an odd figure. She's spacey and tends to ramble about anything under the sun. Her interest in anything new often leads her to libraries where she will gladly read for hours, a habit she picked up from her childhood. She'll spiel off facts that she's read to anyone who will listen only aiding in her inability to hold one topic for very long. She has a fondness for animals especially reptiles, and anyone with an animal who she meets is sure to be presented with a "your cat is very beautiful" or "may i pet your dog" or "did you know there's a sport in England about ferrets".

She tries very hard to be kind to everyone she meets. She'd love to have as many friends as possible, yet again due to her past. She has no clue really to have a friend, and may tend to be a bit over the top. She loves learning new things, and will work very hard to get things done right.

Unlike most wizards she sees two ways to solve every problems: magic and mundane. She tends to lean towards mundane when tasks can be done easily by hand or if there is a muggle tool for doing the specific thing (cleaning, lighting candles, picking things up). The harder a task is the more likely it is she'll think to use magic.

History:
Brynn is used to having no friends and "being the weird girl" she's got her mom and the librarians anyway so who cares right? On occasion she made things change form, leaving her mom very confused at porcelain mice and birds made of leaves. Sometimes it was the frogs, squirrels and birds that came to her when she called that startled her mother. The strangest thing by far however, was the way that she knew things. At first she just seemed to enjoy making up stories about people, just the things they where doing, where they were going, but then she told stories to her mom, about her mom, things her mom had been worrying about for weeks but would never tell anyone let alone her only child. Things about her no good father and her dead brother. All the worries of money and finding a new job. Things a child shouldn't know.

Next came the doctors who just wanted to talk, they swore nothing was wrong or different about her, she was just a good guesser and a story teller, though they were lying out their mouths and she was a freak. Her mother wasn't convinced she was a guesser either and decided she needn't be any where near "normal" people. But being a single mother trying to conceal her strange daughter was not easy, mostly she just let her child do as she pleased, that was the most she could do for her little girl. Brynn home schooled and enjoyed her small home on the outskirts of a little village in the middle of nowhere.

So armed with a library card and a backpack of snacks Brynn set out almost daily to read, learn, and have a good time on her own. She would stop by the library for books on every subject from raising frogs to planes of throughout the ages. Shed nap in the grass and climb trees, her child hood could not have been better, despite all the onlookers who seemed disturbed by her and the lack of anyone her own age. She didn't mind them at all.

The letter was a surprise. It arrived by the normal means, owl, when her mother was away at a new job. As it turns out that was all for the better, as her mother hated animals inside. Just as quickly as the owl came it left, leaving the large envelope addressed to Brynn. At first she was confused, who'd want to send her a letter, but upon opening it she knew it was meant to be. Convincing her mom, oddly enough had never been easier, to be rid of her for an entire year except during the summer, only having to pay for the books and other school things, really it was the economical thing to do. In other words her mom didn't read the letter. Her mom was just glad some school actually wanted her daughter and didn't think twice on how they found out about her.

Getting Brynns school things was the most awkward part for her mother, at one point about halfway through getting books she told Brynn to get the rest of her things on her own, gave her some money and went back to the car to wait. Her mom thought she was hallucinating. Brynn didn't mind at all, she liked the book store and the pet store and all the wonderful things all over the place, all of it was weird and perfect just like her. She could tell that she was going to like her new school.

Blood Status: muggleborn

Wand: 9 1/2 inch red mahogany with a hippogriff feather core

John Lockhart

Name: John Lockhart

Age: 11 1/2

Appearance:

John

Personality: John is older than he looks. He sees that the world isn't black and white, that everything is shades of grey. However he has a strong desire to live up to the expectations set in front of him, as a muggleborn wizard. He can't help but do what he thinks is right, damn the consequences. In addition to this, John is extremely cocky and stubborn, not able to live without letting everyone in the room know that he thinks he's smarter than all of them, which is very possible, given the amount of reading he's done on the wizarding world in the past few months.

History: John has displayed signs of magic since a young age. He used to move building blocks around without moving a finger, and teachers would often report him for bringing firecrackers to school, although he was never found with any. His parents were both artists, his mother a writer and his father a musician, but they always carved time out of their busy days to spend time with their child. John always excelled in academics, and he was set to join his towns local football team before he got his letter.

[BlackPanther]

Name: Jaylon (Jay) Loxias

Age: 11 1/2

Appearance: rather tall for his age with features that show he is going to be rather good looking when he gets older. He has honey colored eyes and curly red hair that has streaks of lighter almost orange hair in it that seems to shine in the light. He has faint freckles on his face and his skin isn't too pale. For an almost 12 year old he is in pretty good shape, but that is hard to tell in his over sized winter wear his aunt buys him.

Personality: he is extremely cheerful and open minded often preferring to really get to know someone before judging them. He tends to be quite when he first meets people, then becomes more talkative later on. However, if he is excited he tends to over talk. Of course, he has a rather short fuse when it comes to being or watching some one else be bullied.

History: jay was born to an animagnus (mother) and a metamorphagus (father). His parents were loving and wonderful even though his father was a Slytherin and his mother was a gryffindor showing that no matter what house love can happen anywhere. Unfortunately, his parents died in a horrible accident when he was a baby. His uncle and his aunt both keep the details from him actually agreeing that he is too young to know just yet. Jay is fine with this preferring to not know. Fast forward and his father's brother(Slytherin) and his mother's sister (hufflepuff) get a dual custody where for half of the year (summer) he lives with his uncle and the other half his lives with his aunt and her husband. His uncle shows him the wizard world while his aunt shows him the muggle world since her husband is a muggle. Allowing him to see and appreciate both worlds and love them both. With him going to hogwarts this leads to his odd wardrobe where his summer weight clothing consists of grays whites and blacks that fit him well while his winter weight clothing is over sized and brightly colored. He hopes to be a gryffindor like his mother (much to the amusement of his aunt) and become a animagnus to honor both. Unlike both parents however, he wishes to be on a quidditch team.

Charlyn Janel Avalon
Nicknames: Charlie, Char


Age: 11
Blood Status: Pure-Blood

Personality: She learns very fast, if she is interested in something. Charlyn is very friendly, but she has a big ego. She accepts when there's something she can't do, but embraces things she can do. She is a perfectionist. She likes to question everything, if there's something unclear to her, e.g. rules. Even though she does accept rules, she is also one to happily break them to have some fun. Charlie likes to discuss a lot, she believes that books, discussions and observation keep her mind on edge.

Charlyn is adventures, and also future-minded. School is important to her, just like having fun is important. And sometimes finding the balance is hard to her.

She is open hearted, very accepting, loyal, overly helpful and protective.
But don't get it wrong. She can be quiet a handful.

History: Charlyn lives with her father. He own a store for old magical things, that others can sell to him and he tries to fix them up and resell them.
Her mother died when she was 8 years old, they had the greatest bond. Ever since then, Charlie has been the adult in the house. Her father is not home often, since he's the only one working at the store and they can't afford to not open it. Sometimes Charlie offers to help out, though.

Her mother was a very nature centered person, so Charlie turned out to be that kind of girl that puts milk out for the cats and feeds the birds in the winter.
Her mother worked at the Mungo Hospital. One day the hospital got attacked, a part of it broke down and Charlie's mother was the first one to go and save the poor patients.
Her mother was stubborn, she wanted to save all patients. And in the process, she endangered herself and died when the rest of the bricks came down from above and buried her beneath them.
