Character: Silas Colton
Quick Facts: Silas is the newly-appointed 1’st Year Professor of Muggle Studies at Hogwarts. He is a retired MACUSA Auror/Federal Agent, and likely knows a number of current Aurors within the MoM. Silas’ wife, Ann Colton, works at Ollivander’s in Hogsmeade, and anyone visiting the shop to purchase a new wand has likely seen him passing through. He is a familiar face to many people in Hogsmeade, not only for being a foreigner, but also due to recent “unofficial” involvement in investigations linked to the recent mysterious deaths around Hogsmeade. Almost every day, he rides a bicycle ( likely the only one of its kind in Hogsmeade) to & from Hogwarts.

Hogwarts colleagues i can offer would be Terence Higgs and Steliana Nicolescu, both quite new to Hogwarts teaching staff. This would be Terence's second year teaching Art and this is Steliana's first year teaching CoMC.

For students, I don't have anybody currently taking Muggle Studies but Wrath Wakefield certainly would be eager to talk to Silas about his life as an Auror and detective life in general. She's also interested in muggles, though she didn't take it for her NEWT years mostly due to wanting to focus on other areas,.

I have only one Auror, Walter Staghart who's around his age and could possibly been involved in the arrest of the dark wizard Silas came to the UK to bring back to America.

hey there! I have a couple options!

Rhys Gallagher is the Chief Constable in Hogsmeade and he has Opinions on Silas' interference with investigations XD

Mason Skeeter is the Herbology professor!

Sloane Bixby used to take Muggle Studies at the OWL level but doesn't take it at the NEWT level, she does like the subject though!

ETA
whoops forgot about my High Street shop peeps, Quincey Honeyduke (Honeyduke's Sweets) and Caspian Virani (Virani Watches & Clocks) and Daffodil's family too, (The Florist Potts)!

Hiya!

James Fletcher is a third year and has one more elective space so could add Muggle Studies to his list, but whether he does or not Silas might know him, he's widely known as a loudmouth and troublemaker so if you want to give him a detention or a lecture, feel free xD

Carmelina Cramming is a colleague at Hogwarts!

Aubrey Davis is a pet hedgehog, also at Hogwarts!

Trystan Selwyn and Evander Darrow are my law enforcement types in the Ministry. Trystan is more sociable, but Evander's wife is American so could be convinced to begrudgingly make conversation? xD

Hello! This is Silas' first year of teaching Muggle Studies, so I can see the first-year professors chatting about their new life teaching; CoMC is certainly one aspect Silas might not have great knowledge of. Certainly interested in meeting
Wrath Wakefield - I only have one NEWT student thus far, and actually have a few ideas regarding Muggle Studies specifically for NEWT students. If you have open space for a class, or one of your classes aren't progressing like you hoped, I'd certainly be open to taking Ms. Wakefield as a student! Was her intention to become an Auror? I'd love to have some history between Walter Staghart & Silas; maybe Walter was even instrumental in the investigation, and it was his case originally?

Definitely interested in some interactions between Rhys Gallagher & Silas. He's been poking his nose into the investigations often enough to have earned a talking-to, and casually brushed off any "polite warnings". Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get my own investigations moving IC as quickly as I wanted; namely in-that I'm not quite sure where to start OOC. Mason Skeeter would likely earn a visit or two from Silas, as Alchemy & Herbology was one of his favorite subjects as an Auror. Sloane Bixby was in an OWL class? I'd be happy to help further that plot if you'd life; I do already have an OWL class-thread posted before I realized no students are presently enrolled. Silas would be a regular at all three of those shops, lol. Sweets & flowers for his wife (and treats for himself, he's partial to dark chocolate), and he has great appreciation for mechanical items. Perhaps, even, he's approached Caspian Virani for help in fixing the chain on his bicycle before?

Hahaha, every class needs a troublemaker. Silas would be happy to have James Fletcher under his watchful eye! Perhaps all the lad needs is a firm hand, hmm? Detention, helping to sort & catalogue Silas' expansive museum of Muggle Artifacts; dusting & general cleaning, and perhaps a heart-to-heart conversation about the lad's dreams? Carmelina Cramming is the Ancient Runes Professor... One of Silas' favorite subjects was ancient myths & legends. I think he'd pop his head in with questions of his own. He'd be delighted to discuss the finer points of Ancient Runes & links to long-forgotten tomes. Silas certainly is known amongst members of the Ministry's DMLE. Talking "shop", or perhaps showing some interest in on-going cases (off the record, of course)!

Rhys takes is work Very Seriously and would not take anyone getting into his way very lightly. Polite would have been the first time, after that it would have been very direct and eventually he'll warn of consequences. Honestly I haven't been able to be too invested in the investigations either, I get the news as it comes out, but if you follow the event thread you'll get some info!

Sloane is now a 6th year, so she was taking Muggle Studies 3rd-5th, but chose not to take it in 6th because she needed to focus on the things she needed for future career possibilities. She did enjoy the subject very much as one of her best friends is muggleborn.

I'm not sure Ian has ever worked on a bicycle before, but probably would have a hard time saying no, he's a bit of a pushover! lol
