Ruby Urquart
20 | MCHB | Gryffindor Class of '91 | Rep 6
Astrologer & Tarot Reader (Also Palm Reader and Crystal Ball reader)
  • Friends! would be people interested in Divination and the occult in general. Non-discrimatory people who are okay with werewolves. Artsy people.
  • Enemies! People who hate on werewolves, blood purists, racists, classists, etc. I'd also like to explore her not getting along with people in general, not just because they're bigots. Ruby mellowed down after her sister was turned into a werewolf, but she still has tendencies of wanting to be the center of attention so some people might find that annoying.
  • Lovers! She's into Savino Zabini but I'm open to things happening organically.
  • Clients! Ruby offers Divination services, so I'd love to have interactions with clients!

  • Seneca Lestrange
    20 | UCPB | Slytherin Class of '91 |Rep 9
    Debutante
  • Friends! would be other purebloods, either upper class or middle class. Slytherins or people from other houses with (dark) intellectual interests. Seneca generally stuck to her own at school but she wouldn't exclude someone if she deemed them intelligent enough. Also, she'd tolerate halfbloods who are closer to the pureblood spectrum and are academically inclined and of the same social circle.

  • Enemies! Muggleborns, poor people, etc. Seneca didn't stray away from her UCPB family. She was never a Regina George type of bully, but she did make it clear that she doesn't consider anyone 'less than' her equal.

  • Lovers! super open! She's currently in the market for a UCPB husband, but that doesn't mean this is what she has to fall for. That being said, I want to thread her with UCPB men just to see how she vibes with them, since IC she's doing a lot of interacting with them.

    The main person I have for Ruby is Bernard Prewett - he is a seer (exclusively bad things for himself and others) and works for her dad. Doesn't care enough about the good opinion of society to worry too much about the werewolf thing. He's a terminal misanthrope, so doesn't dislike werewolves anymore than he dislikes all of humanity.

    Hi Soph!

    I have:
    Juniper Edevane who is a year younger than her, former Slytherin, just debuted and well... she's pretty savage toward people. However, she is very into dark magic and beasts. Honestly, I'm not sure how well they'd fare, but I'd down to find out.
    Clifford Hillicker is a few years older but they would have been housemates. He's brash and rude, would absolutely hate tarot card reading and divination because he doesn't need any more things confirming how much he will life sucks and will continue to suck. His best friend live in Irvingly/he's there a lot, so potential for them to run into each other there. I don't think they'd get along.
    Timoleon Maxime is way older than her, but I have plans to turn him to a werewolf, so there's that.
    Gus Lissington is the DADA professor (although he missed Ruby by a year lol), but I would love for him to get his palm read or get some insight on future. His sister/brother-in-law are going to die within the next year or so, so there's a fun tidbit.

    Hey Soph nice to meet you!  I have a few options if any of these strike your fancy let me know~

    Ida Chang is one year below her, good friends with Juniper above, not at all prejudiced/can relate hard to all those feels.
    Though not really one to buy into occult/astrology herself (she thinks its pseudo science haha. though would happily engage/try and be convinced).
    They're both in Irvingly, Chang family employs a lot of local townsfolk. Maybe they're acquaintances and got on to talking a bit more?

    @"Sophia Voss" is a widow and might be interested in knowing what's in store for her life. She's got a six-year-old girl she does not know is a Seer. I could see them running in similar 'artsy' 'low-rep' circles for sure~ Ballet is her life and she gave up everything to pursue it. Anyway I promise I will try and make her do your name proud xD

    Thomas Harvey is such a hopeless romantic. I wouldn't be surprised if he takes up Ruby's services just for an excuse to chat with her. He also is in Private Investigator biz with his friend Barnabas Beck so he's always around for any type of mystery plot whether he needs Ruby's help for it/Ruby needs his. Plotwise he's a bit aimless at the moment and dreams often about a mystery lady that he assumes is his future wife (he has a penchant for falling for UC ladies he can't have).

    I'm breaking this down into "things for Ruby" and "things in general" because you know I'd love to have you in all my character's lives for drama and melodrama and shit, depending on what appeals to you <3

    Things for Ruby:
    - @"topaz urquart" is here and can we please backdate a thread to the day the lockdown started in Irvingly? Topaz has accomplished nothing since you left, big surprise LOL
    - Dorothea Twycross also has some opinions about Savino Zabini Eyes and she provides some services that might compete with Ruby's so she's just all kinds of competition hahahaha

    Things in general:
    - Ben is still here, he's pretty iffy on his wife right now but they're trying to patch things up and give it another chance for the sake of their baby daughter. I know you said Ellory's probably staying inactive but just fyi.
    - I have a new character Victor Daphnel who is going to die soon if you're interested in doing anything short-lived but dramatic. He's got family available if you want a new character.
    - Tiberius and Antigone had a son this spring, fyi @Seneca.
    - Bellamy Echelon went by the wayside but his threads with Sen were super fun so I could be enticed to bring him back if you wanted him for anything.
    - I think that's everything you might care about but idk. You should get on Discord so we can chat there because I've become trash at all other messaging systems :P

    I have Terence Higgs as an artsy type, he's the current art teacher at Hogwarts (started this last school year, so basically started teaching the school year after she graduated). He would be the curious type when it comes to divination, so wouldn't be opposed to having a reading done just to see what's in store.

    Edgar Minks would be the sort to hate on her for being a werewolf, if public knowledge. If it isn't, he likely would scuff at divination in general. That said, I would be interested in seeing how they'll get along. He would have been several years ahead of her in school and a different house.

    Henry Thompsett has an interest in Divination but likely didn't know her at all during school, (he's just entering his Fifth year) but their paths could cross over the summer.

    Sophhh <333 glad to have you around again!

    Savino is obviously still around and I have assumed their friendship has continued as before, but in the meantime he has also been getting ~friendly with Dot above ^ so I'm sure there is room for drama there ;D In other news he has been tracking down other Seers and testing divination techniques with them, and having a seizure or two xD Down for anything you like, yell at me on discord if you want to chat!

    I also have @"Jemima Farley" who was friendlyish with her before, and William Blake Abrahams as a person for art-related things.

    As usual I have Kristoffer Lestrange to be a pain in Seneca's ass whenever; she can also casually bully Jemima if she likes, and Estelle Malfoy is my current UCPB debutante who doesn't really get along with anyone. xD

    (Also Theo is currently in the process of being told about Cash's marriage, so I could possibly use Cee sometime after that to deal with his misery, if you're interested in bringing her back for even just a thread!)



    look ANOTHER beautiful bee!set <3

    @'Natsuko Mountbatton' - Ruby and Bernard would be really fun! We can thread them at the next social event that both he and the Urquarts would be invited?

    ---

    Juniper Edevane

    Juniper's fascination with creatures of the night would make it interesting for her and Ruby to interact, though I imagine it wouldn't be as simple for them to randomly start talking about werewolves.

    However, I really think she and 'Seneca Lestrange' would hit it off. They're both UCPB, they're both ~nerdy.

    Ruby and Clifford would be a fun interaction! Maybe his friends dare him to do a tarot card or tea leaves reading one day, he begrudgingly agrees and then we see how it hits off. I can start something like that if you want?

    Re: Timoleon, let's wait and see once he's a werewolf?

    Re: Gus, I'd love to do a bad reading thread! I want to explore how Ruby would deal with successfully predicting people's bad luck, so it'll be fun.

    ---

    Nice to meet you Nolie!

    I can see Ruby and Ida getting along, as long as Ida doesn't make it super obvious she finds astrology & divination silly because then she gets self-conscious.

    Also, Seneca would appreciate Ida's scholastic nature and would be warm towards her.

    Haha, I love that there's a character with my name! (funnily enough, I'm terrible at dancing) I also love her PB, so I love that my name is represented as her <3 We can do a thread with her and Ruby, where Ruby gives her a reading! Maybe Ruby could see signs of her daughter's gift in those readings?

    omg Thomas also sound super fun. If you want a UCPB lady he can't have, I have Seneca. xD We can definitely thread him and Ruby with love life readings and maybe a reading regarding his investigations!

    LMK which one you'd like most rn!


    ---
    Reuben Crouch YES, I'll go start that now.

    Also Ruby would feel super threatened by Dorothea and I want to thread that. Or even better, a thread with her AND Savino. Elias Grimstone

    Re: Ellory, I feel like she's content enough with her marriage to Claude that she wouldn't stray away. Also, her muse is dead tbh.

    With Victor, maybe do Seasonal threads with him and Seneca? Although most of their thread would be Seneca thinking he's too short and maybe making herself taller on purpose while they dance so then she can see if she can probe his brain to see if he felt self-conscious.

    I can't really think about anything with Bellamy tbh but I did also enjoy their threads.

    ---

    Walter Staghart We can do a reading thread anytime!

    It's Topaz, her identical twin sister who's the werewolf and it's very much public knowledge, so I'd love an awkward interaction between them.

    Also, is he participating in the Season? Because Seneca is out and she's a UCPB!

    Re: Henry and Ruby, they could meet yes!

    LMK which one you'd like most rn!

    well CRAP, I love all these ideas equally and am gonna have a hard time picking xD <3 I'll say Sophia and Tommy need most love right now purely based on post counts haha. A Soph/Ruby meeting & reading perhaps? And/or Tommy/Seneca? Would be hilarious if there was a bit of mistaken identity layered in there somewhere what with Sen's skills! Would you be interested in starting either or I could?

    Ps. Ida has an open at Natsuko's ball if you'd like. She totes hurls with men and women but also, could just use someone to talk to haha.
    Pps. I have Cassian Valenduris , didn't realize you'd have a connect with someone who has family well-acquainted with Ministry folks xD we can broach that for the future~

    I can start Ruby/Soph and you can do Tommy/Seneca? If he bartends at balls/events, they could meet that way? I can see Seneca relying on alcohol (but respectfully so!) to deal with her introvertedness.

    #11
    Started a thread for Soph!

    Elias Grimstone lol sorry I missed you previously love <3

    I think a three-way thread between Savino and Dot would be fun! Maybe one set right after the Irvingly quarantine? He could have mentioned Dot to Ruby but she could have not assumed much of her and then they interact and she could sense there's a ~vibe between them?

    I want a thread where Seneca and Estelle are bitching and are generally a joy (not) to be around xD

    Yes! I don't expect werewolves to come up willy nilly lol. Ohh, I'd be down to see how a Seneca/June friendship would go! I can start something for them if you'd like?
    And awesome! That sounds good for Cliff. I will apologize in advance for his attitude and language xD~<3
    Ohhh. Down for this. He's deemed the summer of 1892 the summer from hell, so any more bad luck to toss on top of him is always appreciated xD I can start this one, if you'd prefer? Or both.

    You can start Seneca/June?

    Also, I'd love Cliff and Ruby because making a character uncomfortable is always fun. xD We can wait for the next social even that would bring them together?

    I can start Gus/Ruby, just lmk first where he'd prefer the reading to be held. Ruby does them at cafes/tea houses in Irvingly, London or Hogsmeade.

    Having a sister who's a werewolf certainly puts a different spin on things. To Terence, it doesn't matter, he never had any dislike of werewolves, at least not in their human forms. he would be more leary meeting one who's transformed, of course Smile

    Terence is participating in the Season, though not every event. Edgar would try and go to any he can get into, even those exclusive to Upperclass (he likes to think of himself as on the cusp of Upperclass-hood). He does have an alter ego, who is far more sinister, meeting him as Leon Bunyip wouldn't be very nice (though fun it plot, if you want more darker threads).

    I do need more threads with Henry, but I think Terence would be the most interesting to write getting a reading. We can start with Terence first. If you can handle more than one thread with me, I wouldn't mind doing both but we can wait with Henry if you prefer.

    Awesome, I'll add that to my list of starters.

    Cliff is WC and honestly... I don't think he'd ever show his face at an event lol. Not unless it benefited him. However, he is a pickpocket... and well xD if she has something shiny he probably wants it.

    Either Irvingly or Hogsmeade works!

    Let's do Ruby/Terence!

    I also really want to do Seneca and Edgar, I want her to do ~darker stuff than just debutante stuff, so this could be interesting. Even though he's Middle Class, he's also a Pureblood so I can see her "entertaining" herself with him. She'd prefer dancing with a Middle Class pureblood than an Upper Class halfblood.

    Juniper Edevane
    Ruby has a necklace with a ruby he could try and steal? It has sentimental value to her, since it's some pebble she turned into a ruby when she was a toddler, her first sign of magic.

    I'll start the other thread and you could start this one?
