For Meserimus Valenduris
Meserimus has a large family - names are place holders and there are room for substitions and additions amoung his children and grandchildren.
b. 1862 | ACAB | House | Occupation| Suggested PB: JULIA GARNER
once upon a time Katerina was a student of Meserimus when he was teaching at Durmstrang, they would regularly play chess together when she was still at school. She is exceptionally bright and vivacious and when they danced at the coming out ball, it was clear to Meserimus at least that he cared for her more than just student - teacher. They began to court, and developed a genuine love for each other. When she was 20 they married with the blessing of her parents. They genuinely love each other, and is fiercely loyal.
Katerina was born into an upper middle class family, and raised with all due care and attention and is the consummate lady. However, she is incredibly intelligent and loves the fact that her husband encourages her not to hide her light under a bushel. She has much more freedom than many women, and is secure in the knowledge of her husbands doting affections. She may have her own academic interest and could be a writer or researcher of some sort.
b. 1756 | UCPB | RAVEN/CLAW | CHARMS RELATED| Suggested PB: Patrick Stewart
Remigius Valenduris is Meserimus brother, he is youngest Valenduris brother, and 5 years younger than Meserimus. He is a high ranking Wizengemot member, and an expert in Charms and like his brother is upper class. He too has a large family and has been married multiple times, his current marriage is also to a much younger woman. Meserimus still treats him as though he is 15 and not a man in his mid hundreds! He is very family orientated and despite their ages both men still have a very puckish relationship, they believe and behave as though they are much younger than they are. The pair play chess once a month, overlooked by Archimedes
His suggested playby is Patrick Stewart.
If Patrick Stewart is available – I would prefer him to be the face
b. 1758 | UCPB | SLYTHER/DOR | OWL| Suggested PB: HE’S AN OWL
The consummate middle child he always felt like the odd man out in his family and keen to prove himself. He had a talent for transfiguration and was determined to develop a method of undertaking the animagus transformation while retaining the ability to speak. He succeeded - sort of. He managed to turn himself into an owl - and he can speak....but now he's stuck and has spent the past 20 years as a goddamn owl. He also won't allow his brothers to help him change back. He currently lives with Meserimus (owls can't sign leases) and doesnt know if he hates living at the school (lots of kids) or Meserimus home (still too many kids) more. He is cantankerous, grouchy and a curmudgeon.
b. circa 64 years old | UCPB | OPEN | OPEN | Suggested PB: Jeff Goldblumm
He is not the first born son of Mesermus Valenduris, but the only son to have outlived his father. He is technically the 8th of Meserimus children. Honestly – he kind of expected to have inherited by now. He has had to forge a career for himself, but it is lucrative, and despite being born into wealth he rather considers himself to be mostly self made. He will eventually inherit his fathers estate, and has been supported by his father in all of his endeavours. It does annoy him somewhat that his father still treats him
b. Circa Mid-Late 40’s | UCPB | OPEN | Irked wife | Suggested PB: Kate Blanchette
Mrs Valenduris thought she had hit the jackpot, she married an 8th son who had somehow lucked into the heir spot – but her father in law WONT DIE. So while she is financially comfortable she wants to THE Mrs Valenduris, not the step-daughter in law of Mrs. Valenduris. She hen pecks her husband quiet a bit but he has the good humour enough to ignore most of her chittering.
(Could be a second wife.)
b. circa 24 | UCPB | HOUSE | ROLE | Suggested PB: India Eisley - Open
The eldest daughter of this side of the family, she is a consummate sweet young lady. She wants a career, and is much smarter than she pretends to be. She is a potions wiz, like her gramps. She is a little quirkier than she really thinks is acceptable for an upper class pureblooded woman. She is concerned she is not marriage material and is mostly okay with that but worries about her family reaction.
b. Circa 18 | UCPB | OPEN | Awkward son | Suggested PB: Tanner Buchanon
First born son, and the heir of an heir – he isn’t holding his breath about inheriting any time soon and so is working hard in school to get the career he needs to support himself. If his families longevity is anything to go by he won’t be inheriting ever. He is bright but finds his family fully extra.
b. circa 13 | UCPB | NOT SLYTHERIN | STUDENT | Suggested PB: OPEN
Easy going, go with the flow kind of kid, He likely plays quidditch, and is part of several clubs. He has an ear for languages and while he isn’t especially ambitious he tends to be good at things rather easily and does well in class with minimal effort. He would easy to dislike but because he is generous with his wealth, time and friendship he is pretty popular.
b. Circa 55 | UCPB | NOT SLYTHERIN | ROLE | Suggested PB: Mark Ruffollo
Is super glad that he isn’t the eldest son, he just wants a quiet life. His mothers death is incredibly embarrassing to him. He thinks people talk about it constantly when he is out of the room, and so hates social obligations. He asked for his parents to arrange a marriage for him, but is still unsure if his wife loves him. He is close with his nephew because he also thinks their whole family is a needless level of extra.
b. early 40’s | UCPB | OPEN | OUTGOING WIFE | Suggested PB: JENNIFER GARNER
She was an arranged marriage with her husband but loves him greatly. She is out going and spunky and rather the opposite of her husband. She has a youthful, quirky air and fits in very well with the family- possibly better than her husband – her brother in law (below) often says that if they ever separate they are keeping her and ditching his brother.
b. CIRCA 13 | UCPB | HUFFLE/DOR | FANCIFUL | Suggested PB: Ty Simpkins
Much like his mother, he is an imaginative, carefree and fairly whimsical boy. He is likely to be found playing some kind of imaginative game in the grounds of the school, with the easily whimsical children. He has read a lot of fiction and so any kind of Romantic (with a capital R) story will appeal to him (Half breeds, mysterious orphans etc) He much prefers the outdoors to inside. Care of Magical Creatures is his favourite class, closely followed by herbology, but anything that requires him to spend hours in the library will bore him immensely.
b. CIRCA 12 | UCPB | HOUSE | INTENSE | Suggested PB: Oakes Fegley
Irish twins, there are only 11 months between them but the two couldn’t be more different. Gregori is intense, serious and thinks of himself rather as grown up, he looks on his brother with a touch of disdain for being so ‘foolish’. He prefers to dress, speak and behave like a grown up.
b. INCOMING FIRSTIE | UCPB | OPEN | TWIN | Suggested PB: OPEN
Is incredibly anxious that she wont be in the same house as her sister. She has some fairly intense social anxiety, and her sister is her social bridge to the ret of the world. She is the smarter of the two.
b. INCOMING FIRSTIE | UCPB | OPEN | TWIN | Suggested PB: OPEN
secretly wants to be in a different house to her sister – she sees it as a chance to spread her wings a little and be known as an individual rather than part of a set.
b. CIRCA 50 | UCPB | RAVEN/DOR | OPEN | Suggested PB: RDJ
Incredibly smart, entirely self made and incredibly proud of this fact. He tells anyone who will listen about his ‘invention’ that ‘changed the world’ – it’s a stretch but it has made him independently wealthy. He has a slight addiction to opium, he was a keen underground boxer back in the day and still considers himself an authority. He has never married but still considers himself to be on the market. He is a flirtatious charismatic man whose main flaw is being too picky. He is very fond of his younger siblings
b. 8 | UCPB | NA | Scampish son | Suggested PB: OPEN
Doesn’t have a serious bone in his body and a class clown in the making. He is OBSESSED with quidditch and has been flying from the moment he could balance his butt on a broom. He is not the most academic kid on the planet, and probably has a mild form of dyslexia – just enough to make book based classes and subjects a bit tougher for him than practical things.
b. 6 | UCPB | HOUSE | FUTURE MINISTER OF MAGIC | Suggested PB: FACE
He is a very serious kid, and behaves much older than he is. He has a genius level intellect, already being excellent at reading and writing. He plays chess (wizard and muggle). Named by a naming seer
b. OPEN | UCAB | OPEN | OPEN | Suggested PB: open
