Araminta Scrimgeour
![](https://cdn.nickpic.host/images/p9NL51.png)
— For Bella Scrimgeour —
b. 1868 | UCPB | Slytherin ('87) | Debutante
Araminta Scrimgeour is the
identical twin sister of Bella Scrimgeour. Born on
October 30, 1868, Araminta became the only daughter in the Scrimgeour household when
Bella was kidnapped less than three months after their birth. She was
raised to be the epitome of femininity, and is skilled in the arts. She
began Hogwarts in 1880 and was sorted into
Slytherin house, but not before
coming face to face with her long-lost twin sister, who was being paraded as a WCMB.
Though thrown off by the gossip that came from the event, she had a strong desire to bond with the sister she'd never known. However, their
personalities frequently conflicted, with Bella showing little desire to participate in activities Araminta found enjoyable. Araminta, though kind at the core, came across as
haughty and
judgmental when she scolded her sister for her mistakes.
Bella was sent to live with the girls' Aunt Laverna Flint a month after they debuted and chose to become a healer instead of a debutante, which
led to a rocky relationship between the girls. Bella's constant presence in
Witch Weekly and in society gossip further strained their relationship, as
Araminta was frequently mistaken for her twin. With rumors now circulating about Bella hanging around the "unseemly types", Araminta has had enough and is
determined to clear her sister's head and find her stability — whatever
that means.
The required PB is Lera Sarbaeva for #twinsies. She's a fairly high-priority character, so I reserve the right to be picky about who takes her.

ANDREW LYNESS
b. 1852 | UCMB | Open | Suggested PB: Tom Ellis
High Priority Character
Having fallen madly in love with Juniper from the moment they met (likely in part due to her veela charm), Andrew later married the redheaded veela. Though he came to learn of her nonhuman state, he still swore his love to her due to lust and what he
claimed was "love". His personality is open to whoever takes him, but it's clear that he spoils and dotes on his wife.
Recent Development: Juniper was recently grabbed by a man, and while trying to get him to stop, she had turned into her other form, resulting in rumors that she had started the incident (which said incident had left her going to Andrew, crying and already telling him the real story before the false rumors even surfaced). Possible frustration over the incident (as well as Kelly really hoping that Andrew punches Albert for grabbing his wife, but that is 100% optional). Lots of drama, lots of fun.

“Mrs.” Sarah ____ nee Trelawney | Any House | 30 | Non-Purist
Born in 1857 Sarah was the first child born to Freya Trelawney and like pretty much all of Freya’s children she is illegitimate. At the time of Sarah’s birth Freya still lived with her parents so the first few years of her life were likely relatively comfortable and this continued through the birth of Freya’s next five children. In 1866 the family was disowned and things went from shit to worse from then on. Sarah attended Hogwarts and probably at least achieved OWLs but did not get NEWTs – her profession should reflect her level of education and she can live in Hogsmeade or Irvingly. If she is actually married is up to you but she is at least co-habiting with somebody and keeping up the pretence for some reason. Her rep should be no more than six and, like her mother and sister, she is prone to romanticising things and not always making the best decisions.
Her suggested PB is Sarah Gadon with alternatives to be age appropriate, idgaf about hair colour.

PAULINE WOODCROFT
b. 1867 | WCHB | Open Job | Suggested PB: Leighton Meester
Medium Priority Character
Pauline Woodcroft resents her brother for causing animosity within the family and
refuses to speak to him. It has caused issues between her and Emmeline as well since Emmeline makes a point to talk to their brother. Emmeline is convinced Pauline’s attitude toward Hudson makes her their father’s favorite.

The Husband
— For Phoebe Yaxley —
![](https://cdnw.nickpic.host/vpvlgc.png)
GREGORY YAXLEY
b. 1858 | UCPB | Gentleman of Leisure | Suggested PB: Adrien Sahores
I see things going one of two ways with Gregory. As such, you will
have to speak with me first so we're on the same page for him! But there are some things that are pretty set. He was born in
1858 as the second child but
first son. He was betrothed to Phoebe the same year she was born in
1867. He met her for the first time in
1872 in which Phoebe showed her first signs of magic by setting his pants on fire! She's never been fond of him and views him as
worthless and
boring. She's consistently been having
affairs since they were married in
1885. During the months she has a consistent lover, she makes a point to share his bed at least
once.
Way A: Gregory is as worthless and weak as Phoebe thinks he is. He can be very
timid and is a bit of a
failure when it comes to being a first son. He's too
nice and
understanding to try and make everyone happy at all times. He's a bit of a
doormat to his wife and while he's probably aware of her affairs, he doesn't actually do anything about it. If he's played this way, it's like he'd be a
temporary character and could be killed off in the future.
Way B: Gregory is actually just
biding his time and putting on the act of being
worthless. How this works, I'm not entirely sure but he proves to be much more of a man than Phoebe ever anticipated and is simply awaiting the right time to prove such to her. Perhaps he figures out she's doing anything possible to
not get pregnant and finally demands things change
or else. Or.. perhaps he finds out she's set her eyes on his
little brother and is not okay with that. The possibilities are endless and I'm still okay with him being
temporary as we can plot an
arranged murder if we want.

Felicity Adlard
The youngest of the Adlard children Felicity, or Lissy as her brother and sister call her, is a MCHB. She graduated from Hogwarts in 1884, the house can be determined by you. Felicity is her father’s favorite child and while she has been engaged since 1886 she has pushed the wedding off and lived at home for their father’s sake as he is often convinced he is on his deathbed. Felicity is mentioned as the culprit for dragging her brother out of his abode to be social, often convincing him to be her chaperon to various events and subtly trying to set her brother up with some young woman or other. She is described in Percy’s posts as being vibrant, social, charming, outgoing, kind, sweet, and constantly seeking social engagements.
A Collection of Coopers
Working Class Halfbloods
@'Veronica Grantham' (née Cooper) & @'Leander Grantham'
The Coopers are a bit of a Clusterfuck. (Vic's app has the whole shebang.) Maybelle Cooper has had a serial string of loves/men in her life. Some last and some don't but she is incapable of being alone. The resulting children from those relationships are mostly half-siblings though some do share a father. This set a horrible example for the Cooper children and many of them made poor choices in life. None of them got to attend Hogwarts for more than a year, so they have mostly had to fend for themselves and stick together over the years.
--- "Betsy" Cooper
1862 | house | single | 8 rep
"Skilled" Occupation
Britt(any) Robertson
Her first name can be anything that could lead to the nickname Betsy, or she could have just been named that, it's up to you! Betsy
moved to Pennyworth with Vic an Le in the middle of June 1886 after the Pennyworth to get out of her mother's house. They live in a small three bedroom house in Pennyworth, thanks to the addition of Betsy's income so she must have a job that's
pay level 5/6 meaning she has to have
some kind of skilled trade job; seamstress, baker, etc. She did not attend Hogwarts and in 1872 she and her brother Trenton ran away for a short stint before realizing that did not work out well. Since then she's buckled down and learned to be more
responsible. Her relationship with her siblings is largely open, but she obviously gets on well enough with Vic to come live with her.

Born in 1877, Paxton’s first act of magic occurred in 1880 and saw him electrocute a muggle fisherman with a bolt of lightning #whoops. The suggested PB is Elias Harger. He is absolutely delighted that his father's a ghost instead of properly dead, and has taken to hunting him around the resort.

Name Open
27-30ish | open house | single
Open Occupation - Hospital preferred
Chadwick Boseman pictured
Ethnic Diversity Preferred!
Friend McGoodguy is a friend from Nathalie's school days. He is likely older than she is and so the "single by 30" is really more for her than for him (could be single by 35 for him), but they were friends in school so likely not too far apart. He may have been her tutor for something or may have been friends with her brother etc. He probably knows about her unfortunate love life ("dead" fiance and runaway fiance) They've recently reconnected somehow (work at the hospital, at a function of some sort) and Nathalie genuinely likes him, but as a friend. How he feels about her is open and the "Single By 30" pact will be be something that ends up IC after we establish chemistry!
New or current characters welcome! Please feel free to make him fit into multiple wanteds! --

POC welcome - a more "rugged" look preferred
The first and only true love of Nathalie's life. Devereaux is a muggleborn wizard who was pursuing becoming a physician at the time he met Nathalie between her 6th and 7th years. The pair kept in touch by letter throughout her final year of school and shortly after her, debut asked her parents for permission to court her. Nathalie was truly smitten with him and he returned her affections. He prepared to ask for her hand in marriage but unfortunately went "missing on a return trip from America when his ship is caught in a storm." At least this is what Nathalie is told. Did he wash up somewhere with amnesia? Did his parents have something to do with it because he was considering marrying a witch? Was he stranded in America and prevented from returning for some reason? Idk it's up to you, but the only thing he had from Nathalie was her letters from her seventh year and during his trip.
He's recently (when picked up) returned to England to find her and we can go from there! Ideally he messes up the "Single by 30" plot above! >D --

B. 1871 | UCPB | SLYTHERIN | FIFTH/SIXTH YEAR
Rufina’s stepson and the only legitimate son to Ernest Mulciber, Merriweather is a bright boy whose closeness with the only mother he can recall has waned in the face of his Budding Manhood™. He has never been particularly athletic and has a horrible habit of catching every sniffle that goes around. He caught—but clearly recovered from—the Laughing Plague when it came about, too. The suggested PB is Jaeden Lieberher with alternatives to be dark-haired.

B.1852 | MCHB | PB: RICHARD AYOADE
In his thirties, Errington is either married, courting, or single and eligible (#hurlable), and holds some kind of MC-appropriate job for a man. His Hogwarts house is open. Actually, everything about him is open; he only exists because I think someone should use Richard Ayoade's face, goddamnit.

While Carmelina was always on the well-behaved side, Jossima was the out-and-out rebel from an early age, though most of the family have probably just learned to roll with her by now. By the time she started school, she was already set on playing quidditch for the Holyhead Harpies, a dream career that has come before anything like husband-hunting, that's for sure. Everything else about her is super open.
DON JUAN BYRON DEMPSEY

B.1863 | UCHB | PB: NAT WOLFF
Don Juan's personality is exactly what one would expect of a famed literary libertine, and never mind that the poem is ironic re: the name. Lord Byron is his actual hero. Accordingly, he is a constant source of migraines for their mother. Also he and Phyri's PBs literally played literary siblings one time.

Elijah Urquart is not a kindhearted lad, but for his little brother, he makes an exception, displaying instead as warm and protective. For his part, Gabriel is less a criminal mastermind and more a snuggly bunny whose misbehavior serves only as an attempt to mirror his questionable role model of an older brother. The two are under the guardianship of their uncle Caspar, and Gabriel has never met the Balthazar Urquarts. He will attend Hogwarts in September. The suggested PB is Iain Armitage.

The youngest Connolly of his generation full stop, his first failure came when he was sorted into Slytherin or Hufflepuff instead of Gryffindor. It is assumed this will not be the last. He was once expected to stay home with Niamh’s baby while the rest of the family did something because #youth and took great offence to being equated with a toddler. He is dark- or red-haired and has fully matured at 5 ft. 4 in. Domhnall joined his uncle Gilroy in the workshop as an apprentice—which much of the family considers to be a waste.

"Paul"
"Paul" (name open) is a ACAB wizard, and the other survivor of the Sycorax expedition. Although not initially close or even particularly friendly, Alfred and Paul became besties during their forced exile from 1882 - 1887. Speaking generally, Paul has adjusted much better to life back in Britain than Alfred has. Depending on your wont, he can either have been in the Navy like Alfred or can have been a part of the expedition's scientific/academic detachment, in which case he should have some sort of relevant academic specialty. He was previously played as a cousin of Herbert Fudge, which is convenient since they stayed at the Sandition briefly upon their return to England, but if you want to combine him with another ad I can retcon that.
PB is all kinds of open. POC encouraged. Pictured is Jesus Luz.
