Welcome
Hello, everyone! I'm coding this because I am trying to avoid relatives at all costs and this seemed like a good excuse. My point is, don't expect a lot of coding from this point forward. I think coding is great for Character Sheets and that's about it. In writing, I'd rather be focused on the content. I like to write at least 3-4 paragraphs per post. I understand that it can be difficult to do this sometimes when we get to the height of the RP, but I would like to avoid oneliners at all costs.

With the events that are happening in the wizarding world, students/characters are likely going to have something dark in their history but I would appreciate it if that didn't become the focus o the RP. It will definitely be a subplot; characters overcoming their emotional baggage and accepting it as part of who they are. That being said, if you want to kill off your character's parents, fine by me, just be sure that they don't hang out with Moaning Myrtle discussing how much they miss them with every fiber of their being.
We all know about the rivalry between the houses. But now the rivalries and distrust between them are at an all-time high. This will play into your character's personality and prejudices. If your character is a pureblood Slytherin, chances are they aren't friends with a Muggle-born Gryffindor. Unless however, you mention that your character has a friendly disposition and that the reasons they were put in Slytherin are based more off of their cunning and devious personality than their long Slytherin bloodline. The characters live in a time when, notoriously Slytherin, Death Eaters run about killing people. The seeds of distrust and suspicion have basically been bred in them. Everyone knows that Voldemort has spies within the walls of the castle, but what they don't know is that not all of those spies are Slytherin.

- Classes

Charlotte loves Transfiguration class, she is fascinated by the theory and practice of the art. She eventually wants to become an animagus. Despite her love for Transfiguration, Charlotte's best class is Defense Against the Dark Arts. She has a fast reaction time and is quick to defend, making her both excellent in the class and excellent at dueling.
Charlotte's worst class is Potions. She has memorized the potion instructions for potions and spent hours trying to perfect them, but her work always ends up being mediocre. Although she is terrible at Potions, Astronomy is her least favorite class. She finds the class easy as it's mostly just memorization. However, as there is a war raging around them, she doesn't see the point in learning where the stars are.
- Personality
-
Charlotte is bold and outgoing. She likes to be the top of the class and as a result, she doesn't always make friends with people. Charlotte is a loyal friend and will stand up for her friends when they are challenged by others. She is confident in her actions and can often end up coming across as condescending.
Traits: Headstrong, bold, sarcastic, confident, isolated, loyal, intelligent, and impulsive. - History
-
Charlotte's mother was a pureblood witch, Margaret Avery, but was cast out of her family for marrying a muggle. The Avery Family was one of the few sacred pureblood families left, so they saw her as a tarnish on their perfect record and disowned her. When the Death Eaters seized control, some of the Avery family members felt that disownment wasn't enough to cleanse their record and decided they needed to kill Charlotte's mother.
The Order of the Phionex protected Charlotte's mother for as long as they could, but even that wasn't enough. When Charlotte turned five her mother was attacked when fetching the newspaper and was killed. Charlotte was brought by members of the Order to live with her father, in the Muggle world. She was protected by remaining discreet, her father did the best to suppress her magic when she was younger. He thought that the more magic she displayed the easier it would be for Death Eaters to find her.
When the time came for Charlotte to go to Hogwarts, Professor McGonagall came to collect her. She had a close connection to Professor McGonagall after that point.
