TOWER members; nestor and esmeray carrow
nestor and esmeray are founding members of TOWER. they attended hogwarts, nestor being sorted into gryffindor, while esmeray was a slytherin. after graduation, they married and have two children together. they both hold blood-purist ideas and want to effect change according to their beliefs. they feel that the ministry has become too pandering towards muggleborns.
nestor was the original leader of TOWER and still views himself as such and is thus constantly at odds with ren godfrey. they both want to take the organization to different directions. esmeray secretly agrees more with godfrey, and assists him in.... getting rid of nestor.

Ren Godfrey | HP WW1 era
Renfield Godfrey is one of the founding members and later defacto leader of TOWER. His past and true motives are shrouded in mystery. During the Great War he sows discord in the Wizarding world, attempting to overthrow the Statute of Secrecy. He doesn't truly believe in the blood purist ideology of TOWER, but is merely using it to recruit followers and further his rise to power.
A man of many enemies, Ren holds a special grudge against Archer Evermonde, the British Minister for Magic. He has eyes and ears all over the Wizarding world, making him a formidable foe even without his horcruxes and magical prowess.
*I think I made this aesthic around the time I came up with this man but never posted it so here he is*

RELATIONSHIPS
Lettie & Ellis Vallen - Rich muggle parents of Andy and Jo who often throw big social parties. They hold their children to high standards and are proud of themselves for having two children gifted in both academic and magical pursuits. FCs: Frances Fisher & father is coming soon.
Joanna Vallen - Andy’s older sister who is just as gifted as him. They are very close and are separated for the first time during the First War. She is also hired for the war efforts as a spy. She goes undercover as a German civilian who is a rising star as a singer. Her profile is coming soon! FC: Kate Winslet
Love Interest - WIP coming soon!
Best Friends - Besides his sister he doesn’t really have any truly close best friends. Either he doesn’t let people in because he can be a bit egotistical and think they aren’t good enough or that other people meet him and don’t like how he comes across. This changes after the war and when he grows up more.
Friends - Alexej Kavinsky @potionboy3, Lunas Avery @cursed-herbalist, Ares Gaunt @gaygryffindorgal, and Kit Enfield (potionboy3), and more coming soon!
WW1 Oxford Team
*More Team members coming soon! It is also OPEN for anyone who wants to make one!*
Professor Alecai Kainen - He is Andy’s favorite professor at Oxford who teaches the secret wizard students. He is hired when the war starts to lead a team to experiment with magical weapons created by TOWER (@savetheundoneyears) so they can learn to disarm them and make cures for any curses or hexes or effects. He refuses the suggestions of some of the most brilliant minds of the wizard world and instead insists on hiring his students for his team. He does it so they can gain experience, however he starts to regret it later when the dangerous work starts to take his students lives. He always tries to put himself first and protect the students. He does eventually die doing so. FC: Martin Short
Audry Kainen - She is the daughter of Alecai and is one of the first women students to attend Oxford lectures without chaperones when the rule is lifted in 1914. She strives to be more than just Professor Kainen’s daughter and tries to prove that she belongs and that she didn’t get there simply by being his daughter. She does love him though and he is very proud of everything she does. He knows she is capable on her own without him. Audry and Andy have a friendship that starts out rocky (as you do when two powerful intelligent people think they are both right) but they end up great friends. She reminds Andy of his sister and she also likes that he isn’t one of the many guys who wants to sleep with her or doubts her because she’s a woman. FC: Jessica Biel
PERSONALITY
Child: Growing up he was afforded a lot of luxury as the Vallens had a lot of money. He also would follow his sister around everywhere and loved when they would play. He was also curious about everything and was given the best tutors and he quickly displayed natural intellect and was gifted like his sister. Once his sister discovered her magic and got her letter, he also wanted to explore magic and soon after he got his own letter. This catapulted his confidence as he knew it was rare for two magical children to come from muggles.
Teenage: During Hogwarts, his success in his studies built his ego even further. He was proud of himself, his intelligence, his family, and magic. He also started to experiment with his appearance as he started adopting a more feminine look. Wherever his sister would go, he wouldn’t be far behind. They became really close as their parents expected them to attend all the fancy rich parties they threw at their estate. They would stick together and gossip and whisper about all the guests as they giggled and joked about people.
Early Adulthood: Andy followed his sister to Oxford University after they graduated Hogwarts. They both were hungry to learn more and soon discovered Oxford University home to both a muggle and secret wizard population. They had the best of both worlds to study. Andy started to feel lonely and sad as he was naive and egotistical and did not talk to anyone. He thought they weren’t like him enough to be worth getting to know them. He did not really mean for it to be rude, but he just didn’t think about it. Once the First World War breaks out, he starts to grow up a bit more and learns to separate himself from his rich and gifted upbringing and he gains friendships in the team founded by his wizard Professor that experiments with magical weapons and whose goal is to disarm and find cures for them. He ends up watching half of his team die horrible deaths in accidents with the weapons.
Late Adulthood: After the first war, Andy finishes his studies. Instead of becoming a professor at Oxford or Hogwarts (he’s offered many jobs from both), he decides to try to help the less fortunate receive education. He moves to a small country town and teaches classic literature to muggles. He tries to escape the wizard world a bit because of his experience with dangerous magic and may have PTSD. When the Second World War starts, he is offered a job again from the wizard world which he immediately turns down. He no longer has the ego and ambition to be a hero. Instead, he keeps teaching and also protects his students. He would also shelter and help refugees escape while making sure children still receive safe education and not be forced to fight.
ATTITUDE
Most at Ease When: Reading classic literature, hanging out with his sister at parties, using his brain
Stressed When: Having to have small talk with people he doesn’t like, being apart from his sister, being lonely
Priorities: Proving his worth and intellect, his friendship with his sister, achieving high academic degrees, keeping his students safe and educating them (later in life)
Strengths: Intellectual, loyal, innocent, secret kind heart, unapologetic for who he is, who he loves, or how he dresses
Weaknesses: Naive, egotistical, too proud to ask for help, drives people away and becomes lonely, sheltered, spoiled
FAVORITES
Color: Red lipstick, gold, neutral browns
Food: Roasted pig and a fancy feast
Drink: The most expensive fine bottle of wine or champagne
Weather: Rainy overcast day at the library
Book: He literally can’t pick but he does love classic literature and poetry
Hobbies: Reading, chess, spell invention, alchemy, horse riding

TEASER: Save the Undone Years, a collaborative HP WW1 era story by @potionboy3, @cursed-herbalist and yours truly
Part 1: On A Revelation: Ares Gaunt & Kit Enfield Part 2: Lunas Avery Part 3: Alexej Kavinsky Part 4: Odessa Avery Part 5: Ares Gaunt & Kit Enfield Part 6: Leda Gaunt to be continued...
There are a lot of moving parts still, but this verse is open for collaboration from anyone who wants to take part. We'd be especially happy to hear from your OCs' backstories but all kinds of fanfiction is welcome.
We're working to put together a masterpost with all the lore we have so far, so you're not entirely dependent on A Completely Serious Guide. Our chapters will focus mostly on Kit, Ares, Lunas, and the plot revolving around Ren Godfrey and TOWER, so if your OC is somehow involved with that, we ask that you consult with us.
Participation is completely voluntary and you can comment on this post if you're okay with us using your WW1 era OCs for this verse!
#fic: save the undone years#hp ww1 verse#thinking of starting to use verse instead of era for this story specifically#but also#hp ww1 era#this is just a lil teaser#and just a rough draft of the order too#we wanted to make a little announcement and a sneak peek into what to possibly expect in case people are interested!
