How Do You Wanna Do This? | Elaine's Networking
#1
[Image: xkyuLW.gif]

Welcome to Elaine's networking. I hope the Critical Role gif doesn't bother you. It just happens to fit with my idea and what I'm doing here. These magical seven words - "How do you want to do this?" - represent victory to me (and probably every other Critter out there), because they are typically only spoken by the Dungeon Master, Matthew Mercer, for a significant victory. Whether its significance is story-based or skill-level-based. It allows the player to display just how much this victory means to their character. Even if it means getting disgustingly gory. But I hope you get the idea.


Adelina North
Wife & Mother
Middle Class - Halfblood - Hufflepuff - 31

An avid lover of horses - both magical and not - Adelina is a housewife raised in London who misses the hustle and bustle of her hometown. She is the middle child of three, a mother of four (with more in her future), and co-guardian of the wild child that is Angharad Warbeck.
Adelina graduated Hogwarts in 1875 and took Ancient Studies, Care of Magical Creatures, Charms, and History of Magic as her NEWT courses, achieving an Outstanding grade in CoMC.
Needs: Proper lady friends.
Wants: Past threads set at Hogwarts and her brother, sister, and father. I'm not going to be posting adoptables for these individuals, but if someone wants to play one, I am all for it.
Plot Desires: Friends. All of the friends. Please. Don't let this proper middle class woman be friendless!
 

Kiva Kenny
Funerary Photographer & Artist
Working Class - Vampire - 102

Kiva - born Caoimhe ó Cionaoith to muggle parents - was turned into a vampire at the age of 19, in the year 1805. She works as a photographer and portrait artist at Spinnakers Funeral Services - a vampire-owned parlor which offers discounts on services in exchange for the blood of the recently deceased.
She is curious and brutally honest by nature, but she is at least somewhat social.
Needs: Acquaintances, bodies to paint, people to discuss art with
Wants: Building relationships.
Plot Desires: Plot is completely open at present, but I would like her to get involved with other vampires. Vampires she doesn't work with.
 

Lenora Winthrope
Wife & Socialite
Upper Class - Halfblood - Hufflepuff - 27

The socialite demi-gossip youngest sister of Richard Gladstone, Lenora - Norrie, if you're a close friend - says she doesn't gossip. And she usually doesn't. Unless it's about her older brother and with only family. She is incredibly sympathetic to Miss Scrimgeour's plight.
She just wants her scandals kept far away from her brother.
Needs: Hogwarts contemporaries, friends, people she knows.
Wants: To protect Richard's heart Matchmaking threads for Richard
Plot Desires: Respectable girls to throw at Richard is #1 goal. There are also specifics to do with Miss Bella Scrimgeour for the drama.

Naeva Lécuyer
Pendergast Rose
Upper Class - Pureblood - Slytherin - 18

A recent Hogwarts graduate with a pair of older sisters who are also identical twins, Naeva is a first year Pendergast Rose and the daughter of a widower. She has one pet, a Siamese cat named Margaux, speaks fluent French, and reads Witch Weekly almost obsessively - a habit she keeps to herself these days.
Naeva graduated Hogwarts in 1888 and took Astronomy, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Divination, Potions, and Transfiguration as NEWT courses.
Needs: Pendergast friends, Irvingly threads.
Wants: Fellow cat lovers, past threads involving her early Hogwarts years.
Plot Desires: I'm not sure if I want Naeva to become a Proper Lady™ or fall from grace in some spectacular way. All I do know is that if the later happened, it would be because of a very out-of-place and whirlwind romance. And Irvingly is the perfect place for one of these to happen, isn't it?
 

Orinda Ruskin
Second YearStudent
Middle Class - Half Vampire - Ravenclaw - 14

Yes, a fourteen-year-old second year. Orinda was a victim of the half-breed ban, which led to a repeat of the end of her first year, and an extension of the time she'll be attending Hogwarts. Naturally, this left Orinda rather unhappy. But she isn't letting it get her down! She's got aspirations and a burning desire tto change the public opinion of half-breeds.
She likes to spend time in the sun (and as a result is often sporting a light sunburn), and does her absolute utmost to succeed in her classes. She's also a cellist!
Needs: Friends, frenemies, nemeses.
Wants: A crush. Bonus points if the object of Orinda's affections is upper class, pure blood, prejudiced, or some combination of all three. This isn't any sort of commitment, not really, it's largely just for the Hogwarts dramaz.
Plot Desires: Currently, she's got aspirations to enter the Ministry when she graduates - hoping in vain to change the minds of the closed-minded. So there's that. Also the futile crush thing.
