Hello Arven and welcome to HS.net! We are so glad to have you here!

It appears that you are off to a good start to your application, but you are missing a few sections and there are a few others that need attention.

First, in the year section we would like you to pick a primary and secondary year that you would like Arven to be accepted into. At 15 years old, Arven would likely be a 5th year, but then you could put 4th as a second choice.

Second, the biography section states that "if you are applying to be a first, second, or third year, your biography must be at least one hundred words long. If you are applying to be a fourth year or above, your biography must be at least three hundred words long." If you could add a little bit to your biography, that would be great! Some ideas might be to tell us what life was like for Arven growing up? Since his father was a wizard and his mother a muggle was he exposed to a wizarding upbringing or a muggle one? Is there a reason that he is going to Hogwarts instead of Durmstrang seeing that it's the wizarding school for Norwegian students?

It also seems that you missed the RP sample. Please refer back to Student Application Template for the RP samples that you could reply two. You only need to do one.

Once you've made the necessary edits, please reply to this thread with you application in it entirety and we'll be glad to take another look! Can't wait to get you writing with us!

Best,
Aubrey Rousseau,
Gryffindor Head of House

→ SAMPLE ROLEPLAY.
Please reply to one of the Sample Roleplays below. Option 2:

That rat of his was in for it now.

The gray little rascal had disappeared from his clutches at breakfast. Again.

Before Hugh even knew what was happening, Merlin had shot across the floor, somehow managing to avoid all the feet walking across the hall and had escaped through the open doors.

Which meant that Hugh was now stomping through rows of flowers and other various flora, searching for the small creature. It was like the rat knew Hugh was allergic to most flowers. Merlin always chose to run to the gardens whenever he got away from Hugh. It was as if the rat did not want to have him for an owner.

Hugh had named his pet Merlin because he had hoped the powerful name would give the rat more incentive to be more than a rat. Not that he expected Merlin to change into a wizard or anything, but rats were just so...useless, for the most part. With a name like Merlin, Hugh thought it might give the rat purpose.

The only purpose Merlin seemed to have was getting away from Hugh as often as possible.

As the fifth year trudged into the second row of flowers, not taking much care to avoid trampling the first row, he felt the first sneeze building up pressure in his nose and behind his eyes.

"You blasted rat! Where are you?"

He pulled apart a section of bright red flowers; he didn't know what they were called because he despised flowers, and ducked his head low to peer into the depths of the flowerbed. It was moving closer in proximity to the flowers that finally did it. Hugh took in three great breaths and then let out an almighty sneeze. It was strong enough to disturb some of the dirt on the ground before him.

Groaning, he stood up again and wiped his nose on his sleeve. It was as he was turning his head, his nose running up and down his arm, that movement in his peripheral vision caught his attention. Normally one who preferred to put his best face forward, Hugh was a bit embarrassed to be caught wiping his runny nose on his robes.

Nevertheless, Hugh put on his best haughty voice. albeit a bit thickly with his plugged nose and said, "Can I help you with something? It is not polite to stare."

Hi Arven!

I see that you've picked an RP sample to respond to! What we'd like you to do with that is, respond to it in 3rd person the way your character, Arven, would. For example, would he think it's gross that Hugh wiped his nose on his sleeve? What is he doing before Hugh speaks to him? Does Arven happen to find Merlin, Hugh's rat? Please complete this section and repost the entire application.

If you need an example, please check out the sample applications we have available for your reference.

And just another small note - the average 14-year-old probably wouldn't be able to grow a beard like the one you describe! If anything, it's probably peach-fuzz. ;)

Thanks!
--Vi
courage, dear heart.

Hello! Arven sounds like quite an interesting young man. I would love to know more about him - remember that his biography needs at least 300 words for it to be considered 'complete'. Granted, we absolutely love long bios if you so wish to get lost in describing a few times in Arven's life that truly molded him!

Tell me how he feels about Hogwarts. I imagine he is quite partial to his home in Sweden since he grew up for most of his life there, am I right?  What made his parents send him to Hogwarts instead of a closer school? I noticed that in one of your earlier bios you mentioned that his parents moved to Scotland when he was 13, does that still apply? Did Arven's mother get taken before or after the move?   

I suggest focusing on his biography and adding in some of Arven's personal feelings about moving, boarding school, losing his mother and possibly how he is coping with so much change - is he jumping into homework or extracurriculars now? Does he draw or write poetry? These are just a couple examples, of course, I look forward to hearing Arven's take on things!

Do this first and then we can talk about role-play entry! (remember Arven should be responding to one of the situations we provided - Hugh sneezing in the Gardens OR Eva searching for a ghost in the Dungeons)
