Biography:
Pre-Hogwarts Years
“Can you believe we did it? We got the highest scores on the eleven plus exam in our school. Can you imagine what a difference going to one of those fancy grammar schools can do? No factories for us.” - Zach Dumont (NPC Muggle)
“I know. We could be anything. Did you hear some kids who graduated from that grammar school went on to one of those oddly named Oxford colleges? Just getting into one of them is a golden ticket to doing anything, and we could do it.” - EA
“You’d make a good lawyer as you win half the time when arguing in class and maker our teacher look things up. Are you going to go for that? I’m going for Doctor. “ - Zach Dumont (NPC Muggle)
“Doctor Dumont. Just because I’m always right and smart enough to argue with dumb Mr. Henderson doesn’t mean I like doing it. I’d prefer if he actually read the textbooks he was teaching from more often. I think I'd like to do something like learning to decode cyphers as imagine solving puzzles for a career, plus I could go into the Womens Auxiliary Air Force after graduating from one of those fancy Oxford colleges. ” - EA
____
“Arnett. Get that those two practice snitches.” shouted loudly followed by in a quiet voice as Sarah MacDonald flew by “No idea how they were the best in Hogwarts but between you and me they aren’t making the team. “ - Sarah MacDonald (NPC Quidditch coach)
“ Got it. To stiff on the brooms, and even though they look like there leaning correctly they are pushing to much weight forward. “ - EA
“Going to be just like your mother after you graduate aren’t you. What house you think you’ll get? “ - Sarah M.
“No. I plan to have nothing to do with quidditch after I graduate. I just hope it isn't Ravenclaw as the last thing I'd want is to be stuck with bookworms for seven years.“
Hogwarts Years
“How do you really feel about having been sorted into Ravenclaw?” - James Leighton
“I think the sorting hat put me there purely because of my coffee addiction. Probably was afraid if I didn’t have my morning coffee I’d do something like transfigure the staircase into a slide when I turned into a seventh year just to get my coffee faster. Naturally if I ever figure out how I’ll do that at least once. Don’t worry you’ll be there so you can go down the slide first with me. Though to be honest, I was hoping for Slytherin like my dad though as if I could come on top of that it would certainly deliver a message for the rest of my life. However, they don't have coffee in the common room so l think the sorting turned out for the best.“ - EA
____
“E. Where were you this year? If you hadn’t written that letter back at the start of school I’d of thought you were caught in a bomb.” - Zach Dumont (NPC Muggle)
“My parents were worried about the war, and sent me to some school in the country. Only cool thing about it was the castle it was in. I once borrowed one of the smaller sets of armor and stood as a statue then moved about to scare people.” - EA
____
“Why didn't you want to come to Hogwarts?” - Ruby Lazuli
“It isn’t that I don’t want to be here. I mean the castle is neat, but I have better opportunities outside these walls. Seriously, everything they teach here could easily be learned by reading a book. It’s how we learn it anyways so I could learn more real world stuff by being in the real world. “ - EA
____
“Forbidden Forest Freakout, Shrieking Shack Sleepover or Starlight Skivvies Swim in the lake?” - Irma Scrivner
“How does the second Thursday of term sound? We can sneak into the forest before curfew, and explore as late as we want. Then head over the the shrieking shack to tell ghost stories all night, followed by a morning polar bear swim in the lake. I’ll grab some others and we can make it a party.” - EA
“Wot do you fink you could get away wif?” - Irma Scrivner
“Anything it is all about proper planning.” - EA
____
“Doesn't coffee stunt your growth?” - Adrian Alric
“That is not only the silliest thing I’ve heard today, but also it is the silliest thing I’ve ever heard from you. Not only doesn’t it stunt your growth it makes one able to focus and think better. I’ve done studies. Only reason you’re taller is you’re a boy not your comparative lack of coffee consumption.“
____
“How do you fit into those tiny little crevices?” - Maggie Harkiss
“I only drink coffee and eat scones which keeps me small.“ - EA
“Is there anything you wouldn't do on a dare?” - Maggie Harkiss
“Haven’t found one that I haven’t done yet that wasn’t sure to kill me. So not yet.“ - EA
____
“What sort of broom do you prefer flying? “ - Xerxes Gerder
“Nimbus. My mother gets the new model to test it, and they are the best. I tried the model for next year and it turns better than the latest cleansweep model. I think it will be the choice of professional seekers soon. “ - EA
____
“So, how pure are you? Wot generation?” - Irma Scrivner
“No idea. I’m not an inbreed though as my grandfather was probably a muggle as when I ask my mother about him she can’t remember much. Though, only thing purity is good for is the connections they keep giving each other as they are all cousins somehow.”
____
“What do you think we'll be like when we're old...as old as our parents?” - James Leighton
“You’ll be so successful you won’t even need a mirror in your office. As for me I don’t know. Even though all the professors teach is useless things I could read in a book failing a year probably looks bad. Though maybe I’ll manage to convince them to let me skip a year eventually so no one will notice. After all, I was near top of my classes this year and we both know I spent about half the year exploring the castle. I know I can fly, but I don’t want to be a quidditch player like my mother or worse sell cauldrons like my dad. Hopefully I manage to become an arithmancer. As I'd go batty with a boring job. You won't let me go batty right? Ohh, and kids I want at least two. “ - EA
Note: All questions not submitted by an NPC were submitted by the roleplayers that play the characters mentioned. For a more traditional biography see Elizabeth Arnett’s Firstie App. Only updates from that was she spent her first year in the castle trying to escape as she secretly wanted to go back to the really fancy grammar school she managed to test into by getting the highest grades in her school on the eleven-plus exam. Unfortunately her magical inability combined with the fact she spent so much time trying to escape Hogwarts resulted in her getting left back. She spent her second year in the castle sulking about being left-back, and grumbling how books could teach her more than her professors. Then finally her third year she realized the only viable escape plan would be graduation so she attempted to hand in both second and third year work hoping they'd skip her. Plus, she realized that after Hogwarts having failed would look bad and if she was going to be stuck with a wizarding world education she wanted to look good.

→ SAMPLE ROLEPLAY.
Sample RP 1
Her footsteps softly echo’ed in the dungeons as she walked around confidently. After all, there was nothing in the dungeons that compared to her old walk to school. There wasn’t the fear of an air raid siren going off and having to slip into the nearest bunker. There wasn’t any of the rougher kids who sometimes tried to take ones lunch money - which they hadn’t gotten in the last year and a half she was home and never since she’d started Hogwarts. There wasn’t even the fact that she always had to look over her shoulder to ensure she didn’t get followed as it used to be illegal to be in the muggle world. All the dungeons had was a slight dampness to the walls, so she made sure she had cuffed her pants.
"Hello! Is Emma Birch here?”
She’d naturally heard what happened years ago. She made it her business to know as much as possible about Hogwarts and events prior to her starting. After all, knowing such things could confuse people into thinking she was older which was always advantageous, especially now that she was closer to being a fifth year and they sometimes had parties. With a smirk she decided that she needed a break from thinking about how to get out of Hogwarts faster. Who knew if her attempts to hand in both second and third year work last term would equal being a fourth year next. So she said “ I was waiting for you. You remember the rules you are only allowed to send sparks and whatever part of your body gets hit you can’t use. “
Then she chuckled thinking her game was rather great. Wouldn’t ghosts play games? They must get bored. They certainly loved to groan in her ear distracting her during classes and making her unable to sleep at night. So for once instead of being annoyed by them she’d actually have a bit of actual ghost free fun at there expense.
