“Oh, Merlin, tell me, does THE COQUETTE get what she deserves?” She is in THE DEATH EATERS & OPEN to finding out.“

— she walks through the world as ;

name → aurelia rookwood pronouns → she/her identification → cis-female year of birth → september 1957 - september 1958 face claim → naomi scott blood status → half-blood sexual orientation → up to applicant occupation → contributing editor for witch weekly future information → n/a

— she is best described as ;

Manicure SHARP enough to KILL a MAN, she will RIP out your EGO with her fresh nails. She’s the LINGERING stare at a PARTY, the GRIP on your ARM she holds tightly through your SUIT. Berry LIPS slightly parted, she is the words that all HANG on to DESPERATELY. She’s pure SEDUCTION, she’s HELL on HEELS, with a mind just as DEADLY to achieve her every whim and want.

— her story starts with ;

Aurelia Rookwood is the kind of witch who has always known her worth, an attribute that has gained her many admirers, but twice as many enemies. The only daughter of Sarika and Francis Rookwood, Aurelia was born of two affluent families who adored her dearly. Her mother Sarika had worked for the Indian Council of Magic as an Unspeakable and had been stationed in London where she had met her father, a high society wizard who was looking to be intellectually challenged. The two were silent but devoted followers of Gellert Grindelwald, sucked into his rhetoric that they pushed onto Aurelia and her older brother AUGUSTUS ROOKWOOD [sibling]. Living in solitude by the seaside in Cornwall, their family home perched on top of a cliff, Aurelia and her brother lived a charmed life of reading by the coast, outside of their very rigid lessons. Half-bloods due to their trace of veela blood on their father’s side, Aurelia and her brother learned from a very early age that life would be very diffiuclt and despite their wealth and beauty, they would not be afforded the same respect as others who associated with them. 

Their parents instead tried to ready their minds, insisting they learn all there was to know about British and Indian Wizarding politics, who was important throughout history and how to control the magic that raged away inside of them. As a result Aurelia considered herself to be more disciplined than the average child. Despite the bullying from fellow children and the snide comments from parents, Aurelia was proud of her heritage. She had something that wizards for generations had attempted to bottle and sell- she and her brother were so beautiful, that despite the matter of their blood, Aurelia knew they would never truly struggle and that was what she told herself. Her resillance was rewarded by her parents, proud of the young woman she was becoming, and aged eleven she was packed away to Hogwarts with three trunks full of made to measure dresses by Madam Malkin herself she had earned due to her intelligence, her wit and cunning. Sorted into Ravenclaw, Aurelia had assumed she’d be a better fit for Slytherin, but as the hat debated back and forth before finally placing her with her fellow eagles, she knew it had made the right choice. 

Aurelia disliked people who were stuck up, though she knew everyone with power in their society was incredibly invested in themselves. She needed to be in a house where she could feel at her most dominant and strong arming a bunch of nerds into doing what she wanted was pleasing to her. Unpacking her trunk, Aurelia proudly collected up all of ELIZABETH BRAITHWATE’s [rival] clothing and dumped them on the floor to allow Aurelia more space for her outfits. Extension charms in wardrobes did tend to create a crease. Then she threw DANAE ALTON [rival] off her own bed becuse it had better light and ended the evening telling KERVENS BORGIN [best friend/potential romantic liaison] to move out of her chair at dinner, sparking a friendship between the pair. Aurelia had always gotten along better with boys, possibly because of her beauty, maybe because of her manners, but Kervens really tried to fight her corner when it came to the group of friends they’d established. She knew ROSALIE FLINT [acquaintance], ADRASTEIA GREENGRASS [acquaintance], ANDROMEDA BLACK [acquaintance] and LUCINDA TALKALOT [acquaintance] merely tolorated her. Never asking her to come and get ready before parties, or out for a cigarette during the evening. 

At one point, it did bother her- after all she was only human. But her mother educated her on the ways of teenage girls much later in life, and by the time she had turned eighteen- Aurelia was truly ready to own the thing that made her different. What Aurelia had always wanted in life was power, but enjoyed sitting on the sidelines, taking joy in puppeteering those to do her bidding for her. Becoming friends weith Kervens, RABASTAN LESTRANGE [close friend/potential romantic laison], XERXES ZABINI [close friend], and dating CAIUS BURKE [close friend/former partner/potential romantic liaison/] really helped with these plans. Despite being a half-blood girl, not from a sacred Twenty-Eight family, Aurelia had established herself as the most popular girl in her year. Famous for taking your boyfriend and making you cry in the toilets, everyoned feared her or wanted her and that was how she liked it. Upon leaving school, Aurelia flirted her way into a job at WItch Weekly- though it really didn’t take a lot. One look at her face and she was booked for modelling, her face appearing on the covers of the magazine, walking runways for Madam Malkin and Twillfit and Tattlings.

The occasional trip over to Paris to model and speak with Enchantée for a contributing editor job, became her leverage WItch Weekly. Forcing them into giving her the same deal. As a contributing editor she decided who was on the cover, who was hot and who was not and whose wedding got photographed, it was power like no other and even those who hated her when she was on the way up, how had to kiss the ring or risk being on the way down. It also meant she made friends in incredibly high places including ANDRESSA PARKINSON [friend] and her boyfriend LUCIUS MALFOY [friend]. It was after seeing them go public to distract from a scandal that Aurelia saw the benefit in being in a power couple and what that could mean. Her brother had connections due to his work, but no heavy hitters. She needed a man on the inside and she’d already spotted him. Aurelia had noticed AJAX DAVIS [partner] staring at her for seven years at school, but now he had a purpose. His family owned Moribund’s, his sister ROSALINE DAVIS [acquaintance] was dating the minister’s son HARRISON BAGNOLD [acquaintance] and he had a very high paying job in The British and Irish Quidditch Leauge, which everyone knew had more to do with politics that anyone else cared to admit. 

Dating a Twenty-Eight in this climate was almost out of the question but in current society Ajax was the next best thing and she enjoyed luring him away from his pitiful girlfriend Adrasteia. Ajax would do anything to please her, even take a blind eye to her constant romantic laisons and flirtation which are on the up since she’s found her latest calling. Whispers of THE DARK LORD [leader] had long echoed the streets, but when her brother became a follower he confirmed to Aurelia they were real and their time was truly here. Confident she may now no longer have to ride on the coatails of Ajax to be respected, Aurelia will do anything to ensure that in The Dark Lord’s new society she will have a seat at the table. The taste for power is sweet and as she is relatively new to the movement, it has meant sucking up to her former friends from school who now have fairly influential positions. Back to her old flirtatious ways, Aurelia spends long nights at secret meetings, drinking with her school friends and setting her eyes on who could possibly advance her career, namely Rabastan, who, if judging by her eye seems to have the ear of their new leader.

I just wanna know if I’m just on the wrong side of the internet or if this is happening in every fandom, but are there other authors from fandoms who aren’t in the Harry Potter fandom mass deleting everything from their ao3 because of entitled shitheads who think they need to profit off free work?

Just checking if it’s specific to the dramione/HP fic (reader) community to sell fanfiction for a profit and treating fic like published novels they’re entitled to, fucking up fanfiction for the entirety of all fandoms everywhere. Curious if I need to be worried about mass purges of fics in the Hannibal and GO fandoms…

[disco-horse]

I just had to leave a HP advertising server because my site allows "problematic" content like letting people play minor characters, and narratives including racism, sexism, transphobia and homophobia (probably others, but I left so fast I didn't get a good look).

Now, the main reason people don't like minor characters in RP is a really stupid anti-shipping argument, and it deserves a post all of its own, so I'm going to gloss over it for the moment. Suffice to say that I think if you're creating a server for sites based on children's media, disallowing child characters is a bad move.

However, I also think that if you're setting up an advertising directory for a series that we all agree is steeped in bigotry, it's a bad idea to blanket ban sites that allow people to roleplay the bigotry that is already present in the series.

It's also not problematic to depict things that exist in real life in fiction.

In fact, the original meaning of the word problematic in a social justice context was to acknowledge institutional bias without laying blame on individuals. And I want to say that it's more problematic in that sense to try to erase all narratives involving bigotry from a site because what happens when you do that is your narratives that are supposed to be morally pure will show up your biases. Glaringly.

This has happened to me on every site I've been on that had a rule like that, and it happens because nobody is unproblematic. It's an impossible standard.

At least if you are allowed to RP characters who have flaws, you can portray those flaws consciously and with sensitivity.

anytime i see my carrd templates at use i get a +1 to my stats

i swear ever since i came out as trans i care 100% less about shit like genderbends and harry potter characters in the rpc. like i'm not sayin all trans ppl feel this way but i just...do not care. i might not engage w/ it except under very specific circumstances now (ex: remus and wynonna being such an otp i cannot quite give up wy's harry potter verse), but i'm otherwise mostly like...eh. whatever.

[laracroftlovebot]

this also applies to the rpc btw. if you continue to allow those characters in your group, it automatically makes it an unsafe space for trans people. i’m so glad that YOU personally aren’t affected by this so can continue to enjoy the works. other people don’t have that luxury.

[remuslupyn]

hello rpc! it’s been a minute. i’m missing writing and considering putting a marauders era group together, but i wanted to check the temperature first. harry potter has been heavily tainted by hateful rhetoric spewed by its author. but should someone make a game, committed to including a gender and ethnically diverse cast, would that be something people are interested in? for me, the marauders era has always largely existed apart from the author, because it thrives mostly on fanon, so i’d really like to reclaim it as an accepting, diverse verse.

WANDS AT THE READY....

The year is 1986, London has faced no greater threat than it does today. People have begun to go missing. Posters line the cobbled walls, as weeping families plead for information over the radio and in the papers. Bodies slowly began to be found, first one, then two, until it became too difficult to count them all. Among the unfortunate individuals that remain unnamed, the death of the Minister’s son BOOKER BAGNOLD was the catalyst for the mass hysteria. It creeped into Wizarding London like a silent fog until the country was overcast in a thick smog of conspiracy and fear that tightly grips its people.

What once was a force that began as a whisper, The Dark Lord is now acknowledged by the Minister herself. His DEATH EATERS followers are his physical presence, anonymous individuals hidden behind silver masks that threaten the very fabric of society. The institution claiming to protect the wizarding community, the Ministry of Magic, is losing respect, reputation and control. With the government in disarray, its people are vulnerable and open for the taking. THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX has taken it upon themselves to stand ready to combat the darkness, searching for sorcerers to stand up and burn with them.

THE QUESTION IS...When they call your name, how do you wish to be remembered?

Prompts for Miray Weasley

SONGS ON MIRAY WEASLEY'S MIXTAPE COULD BE...

"When I grow up, I'm gonna be happy and do what I like to do. Like making noise and making faces and making friends like you. And when we grow up, do you think we'll see. That I'm still like you and you're still like me?" - When We Grow Up, Diana Ross (1973) [x]

As the youngest of three, Miray had always had her brothers with her. FURKAN POLAT [sibling] and GORKEM POLAT [sibling] have always been her protectors, her guides, her mischevious partners in crime. They never let her fall behind and were always there to make sure she had some fun, you could write about their relationship. Was there a time when she felt like they might give up on her as their parents did or had she always known they'd have her back? Is the dynamic still the same as when they were kids or have things changed as they've grown up?

"That's all they really want. Some fun. When the workin' day is done. Oh girls, they wanna have fun. Oh girls just wanna have fun." - Girls Just Want to Have Fun, Cyndi Lauper (1983) [x]

It took some time and exploring but once Miray entered the doors of Hogwarts, she blossomed into very outgoing student. Willing to welcome any student as her friend, making sure everyone was taken care of, being that shoulder to cry on. But despite always lending a hand to anyone in need, DORIS PURKISS [best friend] and GRACE HAYWOOD [best friend] were her people. Having been used to having brothers all her life, you can write about how Miray feels about her friends. Was their any moments of their friendship that Miray looks fondly on, was there a moment when she was unsure of putting herself out there and making friends?

“I decided long ago. Never to walk in anyone's shadows. If I fail, if I succeed. At least I'll live as I believe. No matter what they take from me. They can't take away my dignity." - Greatest Love of All, Whitney Hudson (1985) [x]

It may have hurt her when it happened, but Miray has taken her disownment in stride. She does not regret falling in love with ARTHUR WEASLEY [husband], she does not regret falling pregnant with his child, and she certainly does not regret marrying the love of her life. Even if her parents are refusing to accept that she is happy and satisifed with Arthur. You can write about Miray's feelings shifting from knowing her place as a Polat in society to her new life as a Weasley. How does Miray really feel knowing her parents want nothing to do with her? Is she happy to be free of the Sacred Twenty Eight values or is it bittersweet, knowing there's a missing piece?

[disco-horse]

sorry friend, but the way certain people in the rpc are desperate to write minors, csa and p*do plots, i support the decision to deny any site that allows minor characters on resource discords. i don’t think you would allow that on your site; but it’s the bad actors that we allow to operate in this space that require these boundaries.

There it is! The dumb argument that conflates writing minors with writing CSA and paedophilia. Do you even know where it comes from?

That argument originally comes from anti-shipping discourse where people were so virulently against people who didn't ship their OTP that they would try to delegitimise any other pairing by looking for things like an age gap, or character height and claiming these things made one of the characters "minor coded". Then they would accuse anyone who liked the ship they didn't like of supporting CSA or even being paedophiles.

Just so you know.

That aside, I think actually writing about CSA and paedophilia is completely fine. If my co-admin wasn't triggered by those topics I would allow it on my site. Of course, I would monitor the people writing it to ensure it wasn't roleplayed gratuitously.

But honestly I think what other people allow on their sites isn't really a you problem, and it's not really a problem for advertising servers unless it's breaking TOS. Which it's not.

Send 🌺 and i'll recommend a blog i've followed forever

@itsumoegao sent in a pretty flower from this garden!

I actually have like...4 blogs that I have to recommend actually. I couldn't just do one or wait for someone to send me a flower 3 more times; so you're gettin' all of 'em. I have known all of them for quite some time now, even if I stepped away from the RPC for a long time. When I came back to write again (Shota), they were still here and I was very glad to see that. I met them when I was writing Alastor Moody from HP like, 3 years ago. @dhampiravidi who writes amazing OCs and puts so much thought into the characters that she writes. They're always sending in amazing asks and questions that I haven't even thought about. It actually has really helped me develop Mr. Aizawa even further.

@wiccawcnder is another person that I've known for a long time, and I was so excited that they decided to come back to the RPC around the same time that I did! I'm also very glad that she is back from her vacation and that we get to party and write together again.

@proditeur Also a person who I've known forever! G. has done such a phenomenal job of world building for her OC and Reg is a doll. A shithead but we love him for it. But as far as the world building goes; the lore is deep here lads, and I think has an insane amount of thought put into it. Like y'all, I could never build something like that from the ground up. Good shit.

@faultyconscience / @radiaking is the first person to follow me on my new blog/eraserisms. I actually have been really happy to see her get so deep into playing Coop! Dani is very passionate about him and I love to see it. It's clear to me how much she loves him and even when I don't know exactly what she's posting about; I agree 😂. I can't wait to actually finish Fallout so I can develop a verse for ShoSho. I'm currently waiting on a friend to watch it together and I'm sure it'll be fun to explore.

[heartsdefine]

psa;

i have one (1) harry potter au for one (1) character (wynonna) bc i still love a certain ship built primarily within that universe. it is a closed verse to anyone but @faultyconscience (though i might make exceptions for other wearp characters who are interested in writing with me there, particularly waverly). we are both vehemently anti-jkr and i am very trans so like. if you see me playing around in this verse, consider fucking off and/or blocking me instead of giving me grief over it.

[hucklewrites]

Throwing this out there again. 21+ female roleplayer and writer looking for 21+ muns to write Dina/Ellie from TLoU Part II. I'm not too fussed about playing one character over the other, but I will not write with OCs - it's these two or nothing. I'm flexible when it comes to 'verses, though; I have a strong preference for canon and "AU Lite" plots within the LoU universe because both characters are very much molded by the world they live in, but I could be persuaded to go outside of that with a good premise. But no matter what 'verse, please come with ideas! There's a lot we haven't seen in canon, and if we go the AU route, the world is our oyster. I'm less concerned about plot/context/'verse and more interested in delving into the minds of these characters with other people who want to do the same.

I'd consider myself "advanced literate" and I've been in the rpc for well over a decade. This means I tend to do more than one paragraph per reply, but that being said I won't get upset as long as your replies have substance. Quality over quantity and all that. However, I will require a sample of your writing for chemistry purposes (it does not have to be TLoU-related - links to old rp accounts, docs, etc. are totally fine, and I'll probably stalk your blog anyway). I'm selective. I prefer Discord over Tumblr, but I could be persuaded to stay on this hellsite as well. In regards to activity, I totally understand that rp is a hobby. Life happens and that's fine. However, a couple of weeks between replies is about all I'll allow. This is for two reasons: one, it's really hard to maintain the muse for a particular thread or 'verse with that much dead space; and two, if we're on Discord, I hate a cluttered sidebar - unused servers will be deleted if they're left idle for too long. And none of this means that you can't tell me you're going on a long vacation or that you're taking a hiatus. Communication is key and I would love to be informed. But sometimes that's not possible and that's okay; if things fizzle out and I delete our server, it's not personal. It's just something I'm implementing for my own mental health. Also note that while I imagine we will get into NSFW stuff (have you seen these two?), it isn't my focus. I'm happy to accommodate/honor people's triggers and I love love LOVE ooc chatting about characters, headcanons, etc. - but I'd like IC threads to have momentum in addition to that!

Please interact if interested and I'll reach out!

(Some writing samples of my own: x, x, and x. Don't @ me, I did a LOT of HP writing back in the day - the second and third are links to HP characters, so feel free to skip.)

[remuslupyn]

i've been out of the community for years and need new rp blogs to follow. mostly helper/personal blogs. if you're into writing harry potter (especially marauders era) and asoiaf, the witcher, and are 18+ pls like or reply.
