Law enforcement officials, private investigators, and amateur detectives: this is your moment! It's beginning to seem like these deaths will continue until the culprit (or culprits) is caught, and YOU are a key part of this equation! Are you ready to play detective?
- To make your lives easier, there will be new information released at irregular interviews due to a leak in the DMLE. This info will be posted in this thread.
- Occasionally, suspect profiles will be updated with relevant (or irrelevant...) information.
- Sometimes, law enforcement accounts will be PMed this info a day or two before it's posted publicly #realsism
- Any information in this thread posted by the official Charming account is considered public knowledge for those willing to do even the slightest digging.
- You should also keep an eye on The Daily Prophet, including the notices section!
- The Rumour Mill might help, but it could also be nonsense. Who knows.
Florian Carrow Every time someone that isn't him gets promoted, he makes a big song and dance about how he doesn't care, while actively and quite obviously caring. Says he has launched an amateur investigation into the upturn of magical deaths and believes that a woman is behind them. A former Ravenclaw, Florian resides in Bartonburg North. Notes: Was the first person to approach the DMLE with concerns about the creepy notices in the DP and suggest that they might be linked to some of the suspicious deaths. | |
Rufina Mulciber Following the suspicious death of her husband, Rufina Mulciber spent three days in Ministry holding and was subsequently returned home. Still, they never would have taken her without cause, right? A former Slytherin, Rufina resides in Wellingtonshire. Notes: Has never been overly affectionate towards her husband, though who really is, in society? | |
Azalea Chopra Six children, all died before reaching Hogwarts age of various ailments. Regarded as cold indeed by those who know her, and some crueller circles suggest she might have killed her children for the sympathy. She is currently pregnant with (lucky?) number seven. A former Slytherin, Azalea resides in Bartonburg South. Notes: Does not readily engage in society, preferring her own company. Sing-song voice. | |
Devang Chopra Indeed, he is the one who has performed the examination on most of the bodies to date. Notably distant from his wife at social gatherings. First generation English, born to Indian immigrants. Briefly spent time in Azkaban following the death of his youngest child, but it was ultimately ruled an accident. Nonetheless, his time in that place changed him, and he is not so fun-loving as he once was. A former Gryffindor, Devang resides in Bartonburg South. Notes: Wears brightly-coloured vests under his bland English attire. Hums nursery songs as he works. | |
Zhang Released from Azkaban earlier this year, his sixth stint—all for use of illegal and experimental magic. Though born to a wealthy MC family, he was disowned after being expelled from Hogwarts (autumn '47) for using an Unforgivable on a classmate in his fifth year (first stint in Azkaban). That he keeps getting returned into society, however, suggests that someone in his family is still pulling strings for him. Each subsequent stint has made him more and more unstable. Any future conviction will see him subject to the Dementor's Kiss. A former Slytherin, Zhang resides in the Hogsmeade slums—a condition of his latest release is that he stay away from areas frequented by muggles. Notes: Highly intelligent. Figuratively soulless. Never forgets a face. Exclusively speaks in riddles. | |
Belphoebe Lestrange It was rather surprising to society when Belophebe was chosen as the second wife to Lucius Lestrange—an aging career woman, and from the middle class, no less! Still, few can deny that they appear well-matched with one another... She was highly ranked within her department, until marriage and pregnancy all but demanded her resignation—her gracious departure was tinged with mild resentment. A former Ravenclaw, Belphoebe resides in London. Notes: Soft blood purist. Highly intelligent. Does not often host, but still a frequent flyer in society. | |
Tituba Clair Fortune-Teller. A regular sight in Padmore Park and at the Hogsmeade Markets, Tituba is infamous for happy fortunes that seldom come true, and unhappy ones that almost always do. She is also known to abhor men, though she does not seem to like women much better. Tituba never attended Hogwarts, and presently resides in the Hogsmeade Slums. Notes: Those in less legal circles know that in spite of her size (she is 1/8 giant) and booming voice, she is rather an exceptional thief. She once bested auror Maeve Connolly in a duel in spite of the fact that she has no magical education at all. |
In order for someone to be arrested by law enforcement, there should be evidence and a motive. If you think you know whodunnit, you should post in this thread with one of the following:
