      Margaret Barnes

      Biography: (300 words minimum.)
      Marie Jones was born on February 2, 1940 in Boston. Her mother being a muggle, and her dad being a wizard, she was a bit different than the other children. At the age of 7, her family moved to London, England. She was always wanting to play healer with her father, as she had no other siblings.

      At the age of 11, her Hogwarts letter arrived. She was nervous to go to Hogwarts because she didn't really know anyone else her age. She was sorted into Slytherin at the Welcome Feast her first year. She was unsure why, but as time went on she realized it was because she wanted to be a Healer and wouldn't stop until she became one. At Hogwarts, she took the extracurricular to work in the Hospital Wing. She loved the experience so much, she did it throughout all seven years of her education at Hogwarts.

      She wanted to work in the Maternity Ward, Orphan Ward, or Magical Psychology. As she went on at Hogwarts, she was always top of her class receiving all O's. She almost graduated top of her class, but was topped by two other students.

      She decided to take a gap year to get herself settled in Wizarding London. She started looking for Magical Medical Schools, but was having trouble forming a list of them. She was very excited to become a Healer, but was still deciding what route she wanted to go. Her mother is a Healer in the Muggle world, so Marie looked to her mother for inspiration. Her father works in the Department of Mysteries for the Ministry. She was unsure if she had wanted to move closer to her parents, but she could also Apparate.

      She was quite worried about Magical Medical School, thinking that she wouldn't be good enough to become a healer. She wanted to take an internship at St. Mungos, but didn't know where to apply.

      Roleplay: 
      You come across one of these posts on the site. Please select one & reply as your character:

      Option One -
      Amelia Nixon was many things, but she was never a pushover reporter that people could just usher away with a busy shuffle past. She was dedicated and eager to cut to the very middle of the current political tensions because she was Amelia Nixon and her articles would most certainly become front page material.

      “Sir, please! It’s for the Prophet, how do you feel-“

      Another one brushed passed her, the shuffling busy masses making their way through Diagon Alley for the lunchtime rush. This had been the best possible time to get people, but none of them were giving her anything to go with.

      Only momentarily discouraged, the short red headed lady took a seat on a nearby bench. Her quill resting in her left hand and her notepad ready in the opposite hand. Amelia pouted, tapping the quill against her leg as she scanned the waves of people for somebody - anybody - who looked like they had something to say.

      She had been dreaming of her name in bold print, Amelia Nixon: The Source of Today’s Tomorrow. She had been dreaming of the larger office and the secretaries that would fetch her the morning coffee and fetch her anything she needed. The VIP interviews and the most exclusive press passes. But all Amelia had was a page seventeen piece on the rising number of frogs in London.

      Hardened by a day of no success, the reporter stood up and started to trod off down the alley. A loose stone on the cobble path caught her heel, sending the distraught girl toppling down to the ground.

      “Merlin’s fog watch, my heel is broken! Help!” she yelled as she tried desperately to recover her shoe frantically in the middle of the Diagon Alley moving crowds.

      Roleplay Response:
      out that their heel was broken. Wanting to help she made her way towards the voice.

      As she was walking, she saw a redhead girl on the ground with a broken heel. She got closer to the ground and picked up the heel. "I heard you yell from down the street, so I thought I would help you out."

      Marie got her wand out of the bag she was carrying. She placed the heel next to where it had broken off. She knew that she could use the Mending Charm. "Reparo." She said while pointing her wand at the shoe hoping that it would be fixed. She hadn't used the Repairing Charm since she had graduated from Hogwarts

      Biography: Margaret Barnes was never just quite ordinary. Her parents knew there was something about her from the moment she was born. She always knows what she wants and works hard to get it, even if it doesn’t seem like she is. Both of her parents being muggles, knew something was wrong when she would get angry and items on her dresser would float when she was young. As she grew older, her parents enrolled her in primary school. She never became very close with any of the children in her class. Her parents were worried that she wasn’t ready for school. Their doubts were put behind them when the teacher said that Margaret was excelling in all of her studies. On her eleventh birthday, Margaret and her family found out that she was a witch. It wasn’t a shock to her family seeing as her siblings were all witches.

      Appearance: Margaret has natural bright red straight hair. She has freckles covering her face, but if she has somewhere important to be she charms them off so she looks more natural with makeup on. She is 160cm and is done growing. She struggles with her hair on a daily basis. On a good day, she gets it to cooperate, but others she just gives up and lets it be.


      → SAMPLE ROLEPLAY.
      You come across one of these posts on the site. Please select one & reply as your character. Remember, you can only roleplay your own character's actions, not Evangeline's or Hugh's.

      Option I:

      The dungeons. A place eleven-year-old Evangeline had not yet travelled since her arrival at Hogwarts.

      A place she really was just fine with not knowing; but it was too late. The dare had been accepted, even if it had been done in fear of being kicked out of Gryffindor, like the older girls had said she would because Gryffindors were supposed to be brave.

      The air changed instantly when she hit the main corridor of the dungeons. The dampness was almost too much for her and she instinctively took a deep breath to avoid the sensation of being suffocated. There was also a sour burning smell which Evangeline assumed was from many, many Potions lessons.

      Further and further she walked, her steps so slow and gentle they made no noise against the stone walls and floor. The feeling that she wasn't alone crept up her spine and raised the tiny hair on the back of her neck. Shivering, Evangeline wrapped her arms around herself. Suddenly, she missed the warmth and comfort of the Gryffindor common room. The fire was always going and it made her feel at ease.

      Why had she let those girls talk her into this? She was only eleven, she didn't have to be brave. Surely the Headmistress would not kick her out of Hogwarts for not being brave.

      If only she had these thoughts while being dared to search for the ghost of one Emma Birch, whom supposedly haunted the dungeons. It was not, Evangeline had learned, the place where the sixteen-year-old girl's life had ended but as she had been from the house with a snake as its mascot, it was the place her spirit had returned to. That common room was down here somewhere, she'd been told.

      Something - the small blonde girl wasn't quite sure what - but something made her stop in her tracks suddenly. There was a low, dull thumping noise. Or maybe that was her heart beating so loudly she thought it was coming from outside her body.

      "H-h-hello?" Her voice was barely above a whisper.

      Remembering that she was supposed to be brave, Evangeline tried again.

      "Hello! Is Emma Birch here?"

      The sound of her own words bouncing back at her off the walls made her jump.


      Margaret loved to explore new places. When she arrived at Hogwarts, she knew that there was a lot of areas to explore. She wandered around until she arrived at the dungeons. The atmosphere in the dungeons was a lot cooler compared to the rest of the castle. The air was damp and there was a sour burning smell, which was probably from the many Potions lessons. She walked down the stairs feeling like she wasn’t alone. This was unsettling for Margaret but not enough to scare her off. During the Welcoming Feast, she had heard the stories of the former student Emma Birch. Emma Birch was a former Slytherin student, whose ghost was said to haunt the dungeons.

      As Margaret walked further down the hall, she heard was she assumed were another students' footsteps. She wasn’t scared as Hogwarts is a big school and housed many students.

      “Hello? Is anyone else in the dungeons?” Margaret called out.

      Personality: Margaret was a spitfire young lady. She always fired back insults at her siblings right after they targeted her. She was always nice to the people she didn’t know, but if you got on her bad side she could be relentless. She was very kind to her friends and family, as well as authority figures. She always loves going to the cinema to watch movies and going ice-skating. Margaret isn’t scared by much, but she has a fear of spiders.
