Hogwarts is destroyed. Beauxbatons is in ruins. Durmstrang survives - barely.

But the Ministry has more important matters - like cracking down on Dark Arts, and struggling to contain the seeds of rebellion. They don't know - or don't care - about the rumors of a dark new power arising at Durmstrang...

Whose side will you choose? Who will you trust? Who will you betray?

Elsjie mentioned something about doing OOC intros. I realised we don't have anything like that. So I'm starting it. Woo.

Hi, I'm Ria...and Alexander Rice, Erik Malone, Olivia Fielding-Grey, John Crowley, and Igor's Ghost, but that could change. I used to be various other people, including Kit Riley (who got transferred to Treesa) and Voldemort.

I am: 28 years old. I am also female.

I am a musician and a Classicist. I had a job doing writery things after college and then I lost that job and then I temped for a bit and now I work for the University of Wisconsin doing government-related things and graphic design and web-monkeying and I'm applying to law school for fall 2012 and I'm ridiculously involved in politics all of a sudden. Yeah. I know.

I used to be an emokid and then I was a Mary Kay lady and now I'm not either one. My hair has been purple, blue, green, black, and nearly buzz-cut. I have thirteen piercings, nine of which are in my ears. I used to have a lip ring as well. I am in love with the concept of androgyny, but there is something in me that is deeply desirous of being a pretty pretty princess.

My taste in music is eclectic but tends toward symphonic metal and chick folk-rock when it's not classical. I knit like whoa. I also paint.

If I had to pick someone to play me in a movie, it would probably be Eliza Dushku. Or maybe Maggie Gyllenhaal.

I was in a sorority in college. I will also kick your ass if I think you deserve it. I am a contradiction in terms.

That is all.

Aha! Well wow, nice to know all about you ^__^ I'm a nosy little twat sometimes tongue.gif

So. I guess it's my turn now.

I am Elsjie, on this forum. My REAL name is Mykal (said like Michael) and I'm a 17 year old female from Australia. I do cool things, like college and parties and pretend to be Scrabs with my friends. I'm also occasionally bisexual - although I tend to preffer pansexual, as a term, because I don't believe love, as an emotion, should be constrained to gender or race or anything. I believe love is love and will trancend everything. [/philosophical romance angst]

I don't have a job, I'm a full time student. I study Art, Graphics, English Writing and Media Studies, hoping to be a freelance journo. I'm a writing addict, midway through a novel which is to become a movie one day... I've already started the script because I'm so excited. I read and write fantasy (to be honest I'm not the hugest fan of the Potter books - like them, but don't LOVE them) and roleplaying is like LIFE to me. In fact I tend to find I preffer it to real life, most of the time, because the engineered angst is so brilliant ^__^

I have these two friends, Matthew and Megan, who pretty much define me as a person. Matt's my soulmate (we're not together because he's a raging homosexual. For real.) and Megan is my voice of reason. They're brilliant and we have so much geeky fun together - we sit and play Oblivion for hours on end together. Lots of fun and love and best-friendships.

My music taste varies in the extreme - I love European Folk music, acoustic, techno (hard house, trance and psytrance), power metal, heavy metal, sleaze metal, metal metal, industrial metal, industrial techno, pop, punk, hip-hop... basically if I like it, I'll listen to it, and genres don't constrain my opinions on things. Yep.

I'm a free spirit. I don't take orders and I can't be tied down. I haven't had a serious relationship in two years because I'm commitment-phobic. I don't have a job because I want to travel, and the job with restrain that. I'm kind of weird like that. I've had my phases of being a hopeless romantic, and ice queen, an indie rocker, a femme fatale, a punk, and even tried the gothic thing once or twice. However. Now I am just me. Alternative, I guess, I don't know. I'm me. I'm a peircing addict, and tattoo junkie, and the idea of body modification makes me drool... I'm even into the extreme stuff. Which weirds most people out. Hahaha.

I'm tall - 6'0 - and it sucks, because I have a shoe fetish. Well not a FETISH fetish, just LOVE them. And I can't wear heels because I'm far too tall already. Yep. Now I'm rambling. So. That's me. Hi everyone. I love to Roleplay and stuff. I'm kinda cool too. We should be friends. =]

I still feel like a baby on this site.lol.

My most used charries has to be Arya Alexanda, which I have to say I like the best out of the charracters I've played in the past, and also Orla Moon.I think that definiately Arya, portrays me more a little more then she should.

My real name is Naomi..I'm a younger twin and the age of 15, but will be 16 in August.This means that most of the time, I'm the youngst in my year.I'm a Uk girl, and at the moment I'm in my last year in school, before I go on to Sixform.Which I'm most likely to be fought over by my mum and my dad ( there divorced). I have really decided where I'm gona go yet, so I really need to make my mind up.

I'm not as shy as I once was, but I think I'm still too unsocial sometimes.I have strong voices on things, like global warming and the war that's going on in Iraq and politics.I'm weird like that.I see myself as imaginative, although I don't think some people see me that way.I draw the line at Pink.. there is no way! I'm completely more of a tomboy.Skirts just don't look right on my mega skinny legs.

I use to be sporty, before I got to my three high school and it was just to competitive all the time, took the fun out of it.I take pride out of my ice skating, even if I only major to get to the rink every two weeks I'm unstoppable.At the moment I'm writing a fantasy novel.. and I know.. fantasy novels are sort of highly publish, but mines, greek gods.. and now I'm going to zip it aboutt that.

I'm a huge Evanescence fan along with AFI and Avenged Sevenfold.I have like a small group of cd's that I listen to over and over again.Rock and heavy metal has to be more my music taste. But I have had a faze recently of David Bowie..(I think I watched the Labyrinth like 100 times!) and Limp Bikzit..behind Blue Eyes and Eat you alive just are amazing.

I know some of you have seen my unsightly photos before and yes I'm still lacking in self confidence.. but the long hair has been cut off..*shocked look* now I have shortish hair.. which is really new to be.I have green eyes..but I'm not single..sorry.

Writing about myself is really strange, I think I would probally stop at ' my name is naomi' most of the time.English, art and science are my core subject, there the only subjects that I'm any good at, I'm hoping to take Sociology,Psycology,English and Art on when I start Sixform in Semptember.

I'm probally missed something out..*shrugs*.

I'm Austin....most of the time. I play Judas, Sipas, and used to be Alexis Yohan, and Voldemort. Referring to the "most of the time" bit, I used to be addicted to pot, and I was known as "Chicago". (hehe I live on Chicago St.) I've been clean for a little over 2 years now! smile.gif If you ask me through pm I could possibly tell you some stories of my "stoner" days.

I am 16. I drive a 2007 mustang. It is orange. I am bi, but am mostly straight these days as my girlfriend doesn't want me cheating on her, and I never would cheat on anyone.

I am very two faced. I am very "Christian" around some people, and very "Anti-Christian" around others. All in all I just like to please everyone, and that will probably be my downfall someday.

I plan on attending the University of Nebraska at Lincoln, majoring in Music Education, and Medicine, and minoring in Math, and hopefully Spanish.

I speak English, Spanish, and German. I also want to be in the National Guard, but I doubt I will be accepted because of my bad shoulder.

I play baseball, basketball, and I wrestle.

I can play the following instruments
    Saprano Saxaphone
    Alto Saxaphone
    Tenor Saxaphone
    Bari Saxaphone
    Baritone
    Tuba
    Clarinet
    Trumpet
    Percussion
    Bass Guitar
    Electric/Accoustic Guitar
    Piano
    and some Flute

I recently lost my mom to breast and ovarian cancer. My dad is very loving. I was abused by my step-dad when I was growing up which is what caused me to go to pot. I was told until I was 11 that my step-dad was my real dad, and thats why I never told anyone that he abused me.

I hate it when people feel sorry for me. It just annoys me. I'm going to stop typing now, because my wrist hurts, but if you have any questions or comments just pm me.

Wow so this will be fun. Where to start... I guess I can start with my name (duh.). Call me Eddie, My full name is Edward Lee Green III. I'm a leo, born under the element of fire on August 18th, of 1990. I play Taylor McDanial, Damian Darko, Terry Conner, Nikolas Karkaroff and Victoria Smythe. My old charries, who've died off or just didn't make the cut are, Stevie Corvell, Clive Henderson, Ioan Karkaroff, Harry Potter, Xander Stuart, Layle Dovens, Tyson Farley, and a couple more that I can't remember. I'm proud to say that I'll be 18 this year, and can not wait to go to college... which I'm still working on, and very terrified about it. So, enough about that.

I live in the south (Tragically. I'm a yankee at heart.). Gallatin, Tennessee to be exact. Nothing ever happens here, so I'm hoping that I'll be leaving this state soon, headed towards somewhere up north where it's nice and cold. I'm extremely hot. I only became an admin because the other admins found me extremely sexy. No, I'm just kidding, I also like to pretend like I'm an egotistical ass hole. So if you ever hear me say something, totally off the wall, please realize that I'm only kidding... but yeah I'm pretty damn sexy.

Any ways before I get sidetracked on my sexiness, I guess I should continue. I'm a joker, I love to joke, and I love to talk. I'm a talkative, and very sociable person. I almost have multiple personalities. Which is why I have so many damn characters, each of them are in some way connected to me and my feelings and emotions. I'm bi, so I switch back and forth all the time. Girls hurt my feelings so, right about now I'm interested in guys until one of them do something to make me literally feel sick, pissed, or sad.

I'm one crazy individual, and I don't know why people like me so much, but the do.. so I must be doing something right. ha. I'd write more, but I don't really have that much else to say at the moment so ha. If you want to talk to me more, my msn is cuteboiifrmtn@hotmail.com, or you can add me at www.myspace.com/eddiehateshisname ... so until the guys. See ya..

Lol, thank you!

I met Stef from Placebo before the show in Chicago a year ago - and all three of 'em at a signing they did during Projekt Rev in Charlotte nine months ago. smile.gif Brian was on a lot of drugs for tonsilitis and so was actually really nice. I hear he's normally kind of a wanker. Stef was nice though.

(I had this whole damn thing finished but the stupid somputer shut down :[ now I really hate school)

Hello. My name is Sterling Dee Talbert, I live in Galltin, Tennessee. I was born on July the 29th, and I'm almost eighteen.

I am: A loner for the most part. The way I act and react in social situations annoys me to no end, so I try to stay away from people for the most part. I'm kind of awkward and quiet (so unlike I used to be, huh? for those of you who know me well) and perfer to be alone. Sometimes people annoy the crap out of me, si I kinda just act mean (not on purpose though) to drive them off. I don't realize I'm doing it until it comes out of my mouth. If I want to be alone I make sure you know. I'm very blunt and to-the-point. I ask a lot of questions, not because I'm nosy, but because I'm curious. I like to listen to people, for the most part. If they just want to whine and complain about how bad they (really don't) have it, then I just ignore them and pretend to listen.

I study Psychology on the side (when I'm not working) and I'm planning to be in that field. I am borderline Schizophrenic and I have anxiety issues. I don't exactly think that I can blame any bit of my psychological problems on my childhood, or on what I've been through since October, but there is always a reason for it.

I work at Waffle House everyday on weekdays and I work at Rocky Brown's (a "friend" of mine's resturant) on the weekends. I work a lot and don't really have much of a life. I don't have my liscence or a car, so really the only time I socialize is when a friend is taking me somewhere that I need to go (klol, not really, but it seems that way). I don't have a lot of friends, but acquintences (in other words, someone who can put up with me for maybe a couple of hours and that I only see once a month klol). I have people that I wave to in the hall, and I have people that come into Waffle House a lot that either talk shit about everyone (including me) behind their backs, but is kind to their face. Now, don't get me wrong, I DO have really nice regulars :]. I also have co-workers who are like family.

I don't really have time to listen to music (or do much of anything klol) but when I do I usually listen to anything and everything, it just depends on what mood I'm in or what I haven' heard in a while. I love Bright Eyes, Brand New, Bayside, Ryan Adams, Placebo, Taking Back Sunday, and Manchester Orchestra. I listen to anything from rock to indie, from rap to pop..You name it I probably like it. :]

Well, that's enough of me for right now. I'm almost out of time. Most of you guys know me anyway. But do you really know me? I have changed a lot in a year, and I think that I am a whole lot different. I don't know if I have changed for the good or for the bad. I guess we'll find out in due time?

(Klol, my teacher came up and read some of this klol. what'd I tell you about nosy teachers?? klol, I'm jking. He's a cool teacher so I don't mind if he reads it)

Well, if you guys wanna know more just ask me

One thing I'm noticing - there are actually MALES on this forum. REAL ONES, not just females who play them. Very rare thing in the Harry Potter RP world! Rare, but definately great. Guys can play guys so much better than girls do xD
It's also interesting to notice, that most of us... Don't exactly lead conventional lives, or are conventional people. But yeah, SCREW CONVENTIONS! I love weird people ^_____^ *group hug*

@ Judas:
You are a very, very random person O_O I mean that in the nicest way possible =P I'm just reffering to the diversity of your intrests and things. It's nice to see. And I'm sorry to hear about your mother... I lost my grandmother to breast cancer. =/ not nice.

@ Margot:
Your RL name is gorgeous. I once wrote a short story who's main character had the same name. I am intensely jealous!!! Haha.

Well I am new but I think I can clearly give some info on me but not too much.

My name is Randy Bonin, I am a 14 going on 15 male. I live in the province of Quebec in Canada. I am a canadian french so I do speak french unfortunately.

Now my taste.

Music wise: I tend to be more on 30 Second to Mars, AFI, Linkin Park, Sum 41, The Killers, Sugarcult, Blink 182 and Jonezetta.

Book wise: I tend to love fantasy, adventure and action books more then anything. I am not a big fan of harry potter stories. Actually the only thing that got me in wasn't Harry but mostly all the world and groups that were in it. She had alot of imagination to create all of this.

Sex Wise: I am straight so the only thing that do interest me is girls. Now I don't have any problems with bisexual or homosexual. I most of the time admire them for there courage of saying it so I admire all of you who said it you got more courage then I.

Now for my job I want to do later is Naval Electronic Sensor Operator. For people who don't know what that is. In simple it's a type of job that is offered in the navy. My goal in life is to do a career out of the Canadian Navy. I don't mind people arguing that military is bad. I am used to being in uniform in a crowded place as starting next year it will be my third year that I am part of the Royal Canadian Sea Cadets. I love it and it makes us do alot of things that I usually wouldn't do. This summer I am going to summer camp in a different province for the second summer in a row. I am so excited about it.

Oh yeah major thing to say, if anyone of you thought that Dimas was tall well I am taller than 6 feet 2, how tall I don't know yet didn't measure in a while but last time I did I was 6 feet 2. This is it for now.

Nice meeting you Dimas! Welcome to this lovely forum. ^Interesting future job! & hmm at least I can practice my rough french with you, the only thing I can pride on is my parisian accent although a couple people thought I was toulousian. I am also quite adept at swearing in french, in fact, in RL, I swear more in French than in English, I do love the word 'buggery' though so I say bugger a lot besides putain de bordel de merde. lol.

It's nice to see more of the younger generation wanting to go into the different miltitary groups.I mean there is alot of my friends wanting to go into the Army.I think it's great to have an ambition like that, I mean I have no idea what I want to do yet and I'm starting college this year.

And I love you Randy.Your one of the only people I know that like or know of AFI!Your music tastes are surprisingly nearly the same as mine.
