Application for Hogwarts School




→ CHARACTER INFORMATION.

Name: Aurelia Blackwood

Birthday: October 26, 1956

Hometown: Brighton, England

Bloodline: Halfblood

Magical Strength (pick one):
Divination

Magical Weakness (pick one):
Conjuring & Summoning

Year (pick two): Third (returning), 4th

Biography:
The life that was planned for her before she was born was one of happiness. One with two parents that adored her. Granted her parents weren’t together by the time she was born, but that didn’t matter to them.

She was given only a few months of that life, not that she could remember it though. Her mother was taken from her when she was just a few months old. She didn’t know many of the details, other than what she was raised to believe. That after a shady deal, gone wrong, her mother and her colleagues were killed. Leading to her Uncle Julias and Aunt Iola to take her into their home with open arms. It was far from the truth, but Julias and Iola figured it would be easier to accept the fact that her mom had been killed rather than having the guilt of what the woman who birthed her did lurking behind every corner. In reality her mother was a killer, locked up in Azkaban.

Locked up at the Blackwood Estate in Brighton she was afforded the best tudors money could buy. The best of everything really. Her Uncle doted upon her and treated her like one of his own. He could be harsh, but she knew that he only wanted the best for her and for her to be the best.

→ 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.



Roleplay Response:
The first few months of her first year the dungeons had been a daunting place. A place of nightmares where she imagined all types of monsters lurked. Hidden in the crevices of the damp dark place. Still she pushed herself to explore. It turned out that the dungeons weren't so bad.

Plus the creepy crawlies she found down there were fascinating -certainly the best place to find a spider to put in a mean boys bed.

That's what brought her down there at that point anyways. Some stupid boy had broken her new sunglasses that had been shaped like daisies. At least she wouldn't be putting the a poisonous spider in there.

Wandering around she shined her wand upwards looking for spiderwebs. They liked to make their homes in the corners. Honestly the best place for them.

As soon as she laid eyes on a big fella, that looked kinda cuddly, she heard a voice. The eight legs scurried off with a quickness. "Can you shut it?" Aurie yelled from her position. "You scared him away!"

Her anger dissipated quickly though as she realized there was someone else down there with her. Rounding the corner, she finally saw the girl.

"You okay?" She asked, kindly.

House Request: Leave it up to the hat.

Personality:
Aurie is very imaginative and all around kind of odd. She has a cheerful disposition. Her sense of humor is a bit dry. She's drawn to animals more than people and she likes to tell people all about her pets. She doesn't like anywhere too crowded and gets overwhelmed easily, but she doesn't like to show it. She's the type to keep her problems to herself and then help everyone else with theirs. She can be a bit of a menace though if someone offends her. She's not outwardly confrontational, but she's not above putting a spider in someones bed if they're mean to her or someone she cares about.

Appearance:
She's quite small with long blonde hair. She likes to dress in bright colors in mostly monochromatic outfits from her shoes to her dress to her lipstick. If her outfit isn't monochromatic its bound to have all sorts of different patterns and colors. She likes to make her own accessories out of odd things here and there. Very creative with her outward expression of herself.

Roleplay:
Reply as your character to the following:

Godric Park.

Overhead, the sky was a crisp blue, for once clear of the ever-pervasive spongy clouds and rain. The sun was a lemony-yellow presence, high in the Eastern sky, and in front of it zipped three broomsticks in a straight line, or something very like one. One... two..... three... the boys passed, their shouts of excitement echoing as they chased the snitch, a tiny shimmer reflecting the sunlight.

Far below was another, much smaller broomstick.

It trugged along the ground, hugging close to it like a sluggish choo choo train and occasionally shuttering in protest. This was because said stick was currently being occupied by a very small girl who was tugging upward on the front of it with all her might, trying to coax it into doing what it had been expressly designed NOT to do.

"John, I said wait up!" The tiny girl squealed, giving the broomstick another tug.

Begrudgingly, it drifted upward a foot, and then sank, depositing the troublesome girl safely on the ground. Janey Hurst was not pleased. In a huff, she hopped off the toy safety broom, grabbing it firmly and thrusting it handle first into the turf.

Her brother was such a beast. He NEVER let her play! She folded her arms, seething blue eyes fixing on another figure nearby.  "You!" She barked, much more sharply than she meant to.

"...Do you want to play?"

Roleplay Response:


Aurelia turned the page of the book she was reading. A story of a princess saving herself from a magical plague upon the world she once knew. It was pretty good. She pictured herself as the protagonist as the princess rode into battle.

Voices in the background got closer, causing her to look up. She wished she hadn’t. The scene that transpired in front of her sounded like the makings of something good. A little girl shouting at her brother. It intrigued her until the little girl pointed directly at her and yelled.

Aurelia grimaced a bit as she shook her head. “Sorry.” She stated as she held up the book. “I told my uncle that I would wait for him here while he went to pick something up.”

It wasn’t a total lie. Her uncle was picking something up, but she could stay anywhere in the vicinity of the park. She wasn’t didn’t like testing boundaries much and that proved to get her more freedom. The little girl in front of her didn’t know that though.

Looking from her book to the girl she sighed. “If you want to sit I could read to you.” Aurelia suggested instead. Hopefully the girl would bite. She really didn’t want to play, especially since the dress she was wearing was new.
