Chatterbox: Blab About Books

A New Harry Potter Roleplay
I was wondering...

I was wondering if we could have a new HP rp. All the others have 100+ posts and it'd be tough to just jump in. So, here's an independant one!!! Please join!

And just enough for it not to become confusing.

I think I'll make my own character, too.

Age: 14, 4th year

House: Ravenclaw

Wand: 10 3/4 inches, cherry and unicorn hair

Description: Wavy reddish-brown hair that she has been trying unsuccessfully to grow out for two years now, hazel eyes, 5' 4", some freckles. (Pure blood mother, half-blood father)

Other: Chaser for Ravenclaw Quidditch team, Chess club.

Ooh, good. I thought we weren't going to continue.

Who's going to start?

So... can we start? I'm no good at beginnings, so you go first.

A) I'm bored, and B) I have nothing better to do.

Name: Corvus Burke

Age/year: 16, Sixth year

House: Slytherin, but you knew that ^_^

Appearance: Average height, curly, semi-longish (er, a bit more then chin length) black hair, grey eyes. Thin, pale, good-looking when he's not sneering.

Personality: Bit of a slime to anyone who isn't at least half-blood. Tendency towards arrogance; almost-but-not-quite a Nietzsche Wannabe. Highly sarcastic and likes to terrorize underclassmen.  

Wand: 14", Yew, Dragon heartstring

Family: Pureblood, related to the Blacks via his grandmother.

Classes: Defense Against the Dark Arts, Potions, Transfiguration, Charms, Herbology, Astronomy, Arithmancy, and Ancient Runes.

Extracurricular: Chaser for the Slytherin team.

...I'll admit I almost didn't want to join this one 'cause the chances of me getting *three* AU's with Bellatrix and Voldy in them are probably slim to none. However, given that Draco's presumably still a student/having to deal with legal issues because of the whole Death Eater thing... *shrug* 

Speaking of which, can I be Draco as well? *puppy eyes*

Who's starting?

Divination, Ancient runes, Arithmancy, Astronomy, Charms, Transfiguration, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Herbology, and Potions

Oh! I forgot! Lily takes Transfiguration, too. That was the one I couldn't remember!

I think you can probably be Draco. Personally, I'd rather not have this be an AU; what does everyone else think?

((Nor was I expecting it to be AU...))

((I know that's an Alternate Universe, but what exactly is an Alternate Universe?))

 

So... my probably underused charrie...

 

Eleanora (*winkwinkSIthreadwinkwink*): 

Age/Year: 11, 1st year

House: To Be Sorted

Appearance: Small, freckly, light-haired, dark-eyed

Family: Half-blood, but didn't know was a witch since her father, a wizard, left her mother when she was a baby 

Personality: Quiet and thoughtful. Kind of uncomfortable with magic and afraid to ask questions.

((An Alternate Universe = a fanfic/RP/other that, at some point or another, goes against the canon (i.e., Voldy and Bella are still alive in the Next-Gen RP). Both other RPs are AUs; this one isn't. And I promise not to turn it into one.))

((I personally don't like AUs. Let's not - please. Speaking of which, I think Draco would be in Azkaban - unless he's pretending to be someone else using Polyjuice potion). TNO, if you want to be Draco, he could probably be in disguise of some other pure-blood.))

((You're in an AU over on the Next-Gen one, you know...

Anyway, re Draco in Azkaban: I was under the impression they escaped imprisonment because a) Narcissa lied to/betrayed the Dark Lord at the end and b) Draco was being forced to serve the Dark Lord under threat of his family being murdered. They wouldn't have held the same affluent position but they wouldn't have been in Azkaban...

Um... *runs to the HP Lex* JKR hasn't said anything about Draco ending up in Azkaban, anyway.))

If someone wants to start it, they can.
