Introducing: Anneliese
#1

Anneliese Banges
20 y/o | Unattached | Hogsmeade
Dervish & Banges Shop girl (amidst other things)
Attended Hogwarts between 1885 - 1888

Anneliese is an over-exuberant flighty girl by nature. Her interests and hobbies change almost daily, not that she doesn't find each and every one of them absolutely amazing in the moment, but she tends to switch to the next thing as quick as most people might blink, or take a breath. She makes friends everywhere she goes, has a large amount of energy to her, and can be a bit of a wild card to some for all of these reasons.

Anneliese completed three years of Hogwarts, during which she thrived in the atmosphere, making friends, sewing relationships of all sorts. She was obsessed with arts and Care of Magical creatures, but dropped out in order to run off to the circus...something that did not last very long (in fact she didn't even make it to the circus in the first place before running home).



Platonic Relationships:
Annie makes friends like crazy, even when they don't want to be friends. She tends to feel absolutely comfortable meeting new people, greeting them, even getting for to much into their space when she probably should be respecting it a little more than that. She likely has a lot of friends she kept in touch with from her years at school, and even more she's made in the years since in Hogsmeade alone. She is a well traveled girl after a fashion, as she is prone to flights of fancy and impromptu trips that her mother doesn't always quite approve of.

Romantic Relationships:
Annie had one or two interests when she was younger, but has since not given it far to much thought. She tends to be turned off by the idea of being stuck to one person or place, and has thus far thwarted her parents attempts at getting her to settle down. It isn't that Annie would love to have a family, or love, it's just that she finds she tends to not attract any serious suitors, especially after they spend any real time around her. This is something she has come to accept about herself. Is she open for potential ships? Yes, yes she is...can I promise anything will happen..no...no I cannot...because my characters do their own thing!

Rivals?
Annie is not really a fighter, she tends to try and talk her way out of most things. That being said she's not the type of girl to back down from things she thinks is right, even when opening her mouth and speaking out wouldn't exactly be the "lady like" option at the time.


A small disclaimer is that I tend to plot with the "spaghetti method". Meaning I am horrible at pre-plotting things and just throw things around like crazy til things stick! So I am DOWN for random, fun, chaos, whatever you have!

FYI, that care of magical creatures is only for third years and up so she never would have taken it. Also, the family is Too Poor for impromptu trips so that would potentially be another point of contention for her in the family (plus the fact unmarried young women travelling alone is a huge No in the VE).

Obviously I have Wren Banges who adores her.

Wallace Bixby was in her year but is currently quite out of commission having recently been forever maimed by a dragon. Aristide Selwyn was in her year but would not have paid her much heed. Aleksei Nichols was also in her year.

I think her and Roxanne Divata might get along famously!


#3
Uhm she made it through three years, so she would have taken it in her last year before she dropped out. Smile

Cool beans ^.^ I'll add threads to the list for you, unless you'd like to make something than feel free to tag me. They look great, also I adore Wren.

Brigadier General Abernathy lives with her brother, as of like a week ago hahaha.

Magnolia Addams is my other WC person! She lives in London and keeps to herself so it might be a bit of a stretch for them to interact much but Magnolia is a runaway werewolf with a stolen face so she comes with baggage and drama lol ;P



Set by Lady!

Ooo Magnolia sounds really interesting. Gotta...figure out...how to ...get them to interact. *squints* Where there's a will there's a way! Also def should do something with Abernathy too, just because. I'm making threads over the next few days attention willing, but I would be down for you to tag me too if you'd like!

I have Charley, who is quite a bit younger but following similar story notes to what I see from Anneliese' history. She only went to Hogwarts for one year and her family is a Muggle theatre troupe (whom she's lost track of, hence sticking around Hogsmeade). She currently works as a shop girl at Montague's House of Flowers, and otherwise prowls High Street and typically the poorer parts of Hogsmeade otherwise. I could imagine them running into each other or venturing into the shops of employment.

Hiii Yvvy! I have a few people Anneliese would probably know...

Protego Lochrin - runs a shop on the high street, and makes a point of being friendly with his neighbors.
Lorelei Owens - an Australian potioneer who currently works at the Apothecary and can always use some friends!
Viola Sinistra - Hogsmeade resident, generally friendly.

Also less relevant, but I have Lucy Tatting who counts as a High Street Shop person when she's not at school. XD

Daesyn Mackenzie was also a Gryffindor student but two years ahead of Anne. She too loves to go on trips and is considered a little rough round the edges for her love of fighting and the like so she might have taken the slightly flighty girl.under her wing in her 3rd to 5th years before Anne left

Halloooo!! Ok I have for you:

Irene Crawley used to live in Hogsmeade but is now in London, but she was pretty friendly with everyone she met in Hogsmeade, so I could see her and Annie getting along.

Living in Hogsmeade I have Veronica Gallivan who owns Quality Quidditch Supplies and I can see getting along with Annie as well. And I also have Adrienne Lestrange who is younger than her and UC, but she would be nice if they happened to have an interaction.

I also have Avery Davenport who doesn't live in Hogsmeade, but I can find an excuse for her to be almost anywhere, and she's....a character xDD

AS PROMISED: Things.

  • Callum Spinnet, local flirt, footman, and fence. Her brother recently moved into the same house. Once I figure out what he thinks of Wren, we should thread them!
  • Divona Dodderidge also lives above a business on the High Street with siblings, though their home is less crowded and their business more morbid.
  • Maelstrom Crumb has a sexual history with her brother. Well, sexual historical footnote, at least. She wouldn't know this, of course, but it always makes for more enjoyable interactions down the line xD

Oh I absolutely love charley, she's adorable. I could 100% see Annie trying to, like, take her under her wing or something. Definitely overly 'helpful' sometimes XD We definitely need a thread. Writing that down, unless you get to it first, by all means tag me if you do!



Feiyu Yao

There you are! ABSOLUTELY. I have no idea what Imma post but Imma post something..SOMEWHERE...


Henry Berkwood
I need a post with Protego if only because of the spell names. That is the best thing ever. But also he seems great, and they definitely SHOULD at least know eachother since they're neighbors after a sort!
As for Lorelei, I can see them knowing eachtoher easily, especially since Annie's newest obsessive hobby is attempting perfuming potions, which she is adamant she will sell any day now...when they stop smelling like mushrooms.



Daesyn Mackenzie
Oh I am DOWN for this. Annie is mostly feminine, after a fashion...okay so she mostly pretends to be, or tries very hard to be, but is also the same one who will hike her skirts up and traipse through the mud if she's a mind to. XD I'd love this!



Philomena Sprout
I'd absolutely love for Annie and Adrienne to have some kind of interaction, if only to see what happens. Nothing like a little clash of the classes just to poke and see where things go!
Veronica and Annie really do seem like they'd get on, provided Annie didn't get on her nerves lol. I'd be down for this, though I doubt Annie would be wandering into a quidditch supply store, since she has a tendency to fly brooms right into the ground when she tries.



Aldous Crouch
I couldn't even tell you how Annie would respond to being flirted with XD That'd be amusing as heck to find out. Definitely have a reason to run into eachother thought if her brother lives there. So heck yes!
Is it weird to say that I think Annie would be weirdly fascinated by the whole death photography thing? I can see her being curious for SURE. No one give her any ideas, she doesn't need another thing to switch gears on.
We 100% have to throw Maelstrom and Annaliese together if for no other reason than the potential amusement of future selves.



I will do my absolute best to throw threads up for everyone and everything, but also feel free to throw things up for me and make it a LITTLE easier on me (take pity on me for I am rping in a new era XD), and just tag me! CANNOT WAIT!

Faaab, that all sounds great to me! I can start a thread for either Protego/Anneliese or Lorelei/Anneliese. Or both. I'm also happy to both.

Henry Berkwood I am 100% down to do both!

And if anyone who posted here was just saying "They'd know eachother" and isn't down for an actual thread, just poke me ^.^ I promise I won't go buck wild forcing y'all into threads. Lol .I'm just excited.

Hey Yvvy! Welcome! I think the only person I have of use is Caroline who 10 and probably of similar nature especially when it comes to interests and flights of fancy. Dervish' and Banges is one of the shops that she most likely haunts and shows interest in all the bits and bobs.

Anneliese Banges Yay! :3 Please feel free to post anywhere for Feiyu -- alternatively, I'm more than happy to do a starter myself, just let me know <3
