#gv; draco dormiens nunquam titillandus

[dracodormiensgv]

The alumni of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry all share the same sentiments when asked about their time in school- Hogwarts will always be their home. As each of the four houses have paved the path to greatness for many, it’s become time to watch as the next great generation walks the halls.

                          Will you find yourself in Slytherin, among the ambitious witches and wizards who seek greatness, and have the resourcefulness and cunning in which to make it happen?                           Or will you find yourself in Ravenclaw, among the smartest of the bunch, whose wit and creativity make them a tough rival to be fought?                           If you should be looking for friends, you may find them among the badgers of Hufflepuff, as they are the kindest of them all, their loyalty and patience making them a valuable asset to those who should need them.                           And in the house of Godric Gryffindor dwell the bravest ones we know, and may their daring, nerve, and chivalry help them in their quest.

There are four choices to be made, and none of them easy- but everyone will swear to you that wherever you may find your bed, you’ll find a place among your own.

School Rules;

— All students must be within their respective house dormitories by 9 pm on school nights, and 10 pm on weekends. Males are not permitted entrance to the female dorm rooms. — Sixth and seventh year students are permitted to visit Hogsmeade on the weekend, but said privilege maybe revoked if said students’ grades are non satisfactory. — This verse will only accept students in their sixth and seventh years, between the ages of 16-18. There are also staff positions available for those with older muses. — No double faceclaims, unless you and the other mun want to do a twin-plot-thingy. — Track the tag gv; draco dormiens nunquam titillandus and follow @dracodormiensgv. — Please post a short bio in the tag after acceptance. — K but like. Super lowkey and relaxed group verse, just happens to be set in Hogwarts, ya know? There will be cute little events and stuff, but really just have fun. — Feel free to send in possible wanted connections you’d like to explore, and I’ll make a tag to put them in so anyone interested in joining might want to talk to you about filling them. Also! I’m toying with the idea of making a Discord server for the group. There isn’t one yet, but if I do make one, I’ll be sure to let everyone know.

STARTER CALL!

[magpiesandmurder]

          The Astronomy professor leaned back in his chair, eyes glossing over each table from the yellows, to the blues, and all the way to the greens. It wasn’t often he spent his lunch in the Great Hall, but it was the beginning of term and it was only proper for him to be available (especially with his first exam of the term coming up) for any and all concerns. Not only that, but there were some new faculty faces he had to get to know through “normal” means. ...Finally, his gaze landed on the individual seeking his attention. His Irish drawl came out from his lips. “While I would otherwise shoo you away during my lunch hour, you’ve caught me in a good mood. Must be the whole, ‘New term, new me’ shenanigans.”

jeremy is in the mood for sushi so... like this for a starter that has something to do with that???

                          “No, I won’t do your History of Magic homework,” Chris muttered without looking up from his book, not even entirely sure if that’s what they wanted - he was just far too used to people asking him to do it that he couldn’t bring himself to acknowledge it when someone approached him anymore.

“Come on. Do you really think I’m gonna let you fall off?” A grin spread over Tim’s face as he held a hand out towards the blonde. “Let me take you for a ride. Hogwarts looks great when you’re looking at it from the sky, I promise.”

❝ I mean, mermaids are a thing and they live in the lake. Werewolves are real, everyone knows that- why is it so hard for people to believe that I’m a fox ? ❞ The kitsune sat exasperated with how the student body was less than accepting of her status as a half mythical creature. ❝ I guess Kitsunes aren’t that well-known around Europe. ❞ She remembered in a visit to her mother’s homeland of Japan, the magic-folk were well-versed in the spirit foxes.

NERISSA CROSSNIC | SIXTEEN | SLYTHERIN 6TH YEAR.

→ BEST CLASS: Transfiguration, Herbiology

→ WORST CLASS: Astronomy, Divination

→ BLOOD STATUS: Half-blood

→ MOST PROMINENT HOUSE TRAIT: Self-preservation

→ PET: Crow

→ PATRONUS: Scorpion

BIO

✘ Nerissa could not recall any memories about her father. Ever since she could remember, she had lived with her mother in the muggle world. Where everything was ordinary but however dreadful. Her connection to her mother wasn’t very strong, both being polar opposites. Being horrid at socializing, it ended with Nerissa not having that many friends in school. As she preferred to keep to herself and hide behind her dark locks of hair.

✘ She was classified as weird, which Nerissa didn’t particularly mind. That way, maybe they’d leave her alone. Often could she be found in the music room, playing her flute in peace and quiet. Straying from any unnecessary social interaction. It was just her and the music, the way that she liked it.

✘ When receiving her Hogwarts letter, she was pretty sure somebody was pulling a prank on her. Who’d have such a messed up imagination that they’d waste time doing something like this? Throwing it away, she ignored the whole situation until Hagrid stopped by and greeted her in person. Frightened out of her skin, he spoke with her mother and they agreed for her to take off. Nerissa figured things couldn’t get much worse than they already were. 

✘ Placed into Slytherin, everyone were astounded with her being there. She didn’t fit into her classification, but nor would she fit into any of the other. At least as far as they’re aware, but no one really seems to know Nerissa. Appearing more like a shadow in the halls than an actual person.

WAND

→ EBONY WOOD

This jet-black wand wood has an impressive appearance and reputation, being highly suited to all manner of combative magic, and to Transfiguration. Ebony is happiest in the hand of those with the courage to be themselves. Frequently non-conformist, highly individual or comfortable with the status of outsider, ebony wand owners have been found both among the ranks of the Order of the Phoenix and among the Death Eaters. In my experience the ebony wand’s perfect match is one who will hold fast to his or her beliefs, no matter what the external pressure, and will not be swayed lightly from their purpose.

→ DRAGON HEARTSTRING CORE

As a rule, dragon heartstrings produce wands with the most power, and which are capable of the most flamboyant spells. Dragon wands tend to learn more quickly than other types. While they can change allegiance if won from their original master, they always bond strongly with the current owner. The dragon wand tends to be easiest to turn to the Dark Arts, though it will not incline that way of its own accord. It is also the most prone of the three cores to accidents, being somewhat temperamental.

→ 11 ½ INCHES

most wands will be in the range of between nine and fourteen inches. while I have sold extremely short wands (eight inches and under) and very long wands (over fifteen inches), these are exceptionally rare. in the latter case, a physical peculiarity demanded the excessive wand length. however, abnormally short wands usually select those in whose character something is lacking, rather than because they are physically undersized (many small witches and wizards are chosen by longer wands).

→ SUPPLE FLEXIBILITY

wand flexibility or rigidity denotes the degree of adaptability and willingness to change possessed by the wand-and-owner pair - although, again, this factor ought not to be considered separately from the wand wood, core and length, nor of the owner’s life experience and style of magic, all of which will combine to make the wand in question unique.

PROF. JAMES MORIARTY | THIRTY-TWO | ASTRONOMY PROFESSOR

alumnus → hogwarts defining traits → intelligent, adaptive, assertive, complex blood status → pureblood patronus → crow / can produce pet → pharaoh eagle owl previous employment → auror, ministry of magic

BIO

✧ Born in Dublin, Ireland with his twin brother, Richard, James was always connected with magic. Talented at a young age, and knowledgeable of the magical world that was out there, the twins waited for their letters

✧ James was always connected with magic, more so than his twin brother, Richard, whom he lived with in Dublin, Ireland. Being from a pureblood family of wizards, James started his studies at a younger age at home - particularly spells and combat - until an owl greeted him on his eleventh birthday with his letter to Hogwarts. It was a special day for the twins, especially for James, who had high hopes of becoming a great wizard in the world.

✧ Everyone in the family expected James to be placed into Slytherin while his brother into Hufflepuff, but the wittier one twisted fate and ended up in the colors of blue and bronze. While causing trouble in the castle, the wizard graduated with just about perfect scores, excelling in Defense Against the Dark Arts, Apparition, and Astronomy. After graduation, he found his way to the Ministry of Magic where he went through high training and specialization to become an Auror.

✧ For many years, James excelled, taking many cases in the Dark Arts and handling of dark wizards. However, he found himself in need of a new flavor in his life— the wizard frequently found himself bored and life led him back to Hogwarts. There, he decided to teach one of his favourite subjects - Astronomy. Teaching the class, while strict in teachings and rather dark in his style, brings him close to the stars and the magic they bring on their own. It's an underlying hope to share that with new students alike. At Hogwarts, not only does he get to teach what he loves and get a new start in his life, but he gets to make sure that the upcoming wizards end up in the right places of their own.

[brxkngilbert]

Alchemy had never been Jeremy’s cup of tea - it sounded cool, sure, but he wasn’t all that good in the classroom. Too easily distracted, too stupid, almost, to spend the time to figure it out. It’d been Kai that had gotten him to sign up. The insistence that he could do great things, if he tried - and Jeremy could never say no to Kai when it concerned complimenting him. Anything positive coming from the other male was enough to make him melt - but unfortunately, that meant that he’d landed where he is now. Without any sort of clue as to what he was doing, and a frown on his lips as he stared at the textbook in front of him. “I’m pretty sure this isn’t written in a language that I speak,” he said finally, glancing up at the professor with slightly narrowed eyes. “Not in the slightest.”

                          These days, on the rare occasions his parents decided to send any letters or baked goods his way, Chris usually ended up picking the first person he saw to receive the cookies or whatever it happened to be. Today, Caroline was getting the honor. “Merry Christmas, Forbes,” the Ravenclaw hummed easily, tossing the box lightly onto the table in front of her. “Courtesy of Mr. and Mrs. Cullen.”
