WELCOME TO AVALON GLEN
Hello friends! Before we get started, I do have a few policies regarding my adoptables: - Please reserve your character with me before apping!
- Obviously, I'd prefer activity from anyone to take these on XD If, after six months, I don't think you're doing much with them (I have very lax standards, don't worry!), I reserve the right to ask you to give them up so someone more active may take them on.
- I'll give you two weeks after loosing a character in an AC before I put them back up for grabs! If you drop them via Maintenance, they become immediately available again. If you just want to temp drop them, talk to me first! :)
- Anyone picking up one of my ads must include the family and personality sections. I provide the family in all my applications so just mentioning the names is quite fine by me. Personality can be as minimal as three basic traits, just so I know for sure that our ideas of the character mesh.
If you have any questions about any of the characters below, fire off a PM to Aldous Crouch, catch me on skype, or stalk me in the cbox ;)

THE GLEN
Avalon Glen ("The Glen") is an unplottable patch of of land between two likewise unplottable mountains. It is not accessible via apparition, nor are any of the fireplaces hooked up tot he floo network (with the exception of the local pub, Smoke & Scale, and the Yarwood homes). Indeed, it is impossible to enter unless you already know where it is—and for good reason: in addition to the large manor house of the Yarwood family, patrons of the Glen as well as a nearby magical village, it is home to a dragon reservation for the native Welsh Greens, boasting anywhere from 5-10 keepers and, at last estimation, approximately 42 dragons.

RHYS GLYNN

1867-1869 | WCHB | OPEN HOUSE | TREE FARMER
To Gwyn, Rhys was her first crush, first kiss. To Rhys, Gwyn was his first heartbreak. Today, they remain as friends, with Rhys pretending that it doesn't bother him when Gwyn tries to set him up with the village girls. The eldest of the Glynn children, it is expected that Rhys will take over the farm, a fate with which he is actually quite delighted. Unlike most of his siblings, he completed a full seven years at Hogwarts, going on to apprentice as a herbologist before bringing this knowledge home to aid the family endeavour. Pictured is Joe Dempsie.

MR. FARRIS
![[Image: XoN16fJ.jpg]](https://i.imgur.com/XoN16fJ.jpg)
45+ | MCAB | RAVENCLAW | MAGIZOOLOGIST
There are three things Mr. Farris loves: magical creatures, Matilda (his only child, whom he is determined will marry one of the Yarwood boys), and good port. There are three things Mr. Farris loathes: the feeling of mud in his boots, critical book reviews, and women behaving in an unladylike fashion. Oh, he tolerates Gwendolyn Yarwood's riding astride her horse for she is otherwise an excellent hostess, and he wants access to the Glen for his research, but he doesn't like it. And he certainly doesn't like the little girl playing at being a dragonkeeper! PB is open but should be either white or East Asian.

"LAMB"
![[Image: eP56fLk.jpg]](https://i.imgur.com/eP56fLk.jpg)
1852-1853 | WCAB | OPEN HOUSE | DRAGONKEEPER
Going exclusively by his last name (or at least, Gwyn assumes it's his last name), "Lamb" has been at the Glen from the start, but in spite of his seeming friendship with Madoc Yarwood, was not appointed Head Keeper. It doesn't seem to bother him too much, though he does have a bit of a temper on him that seems to worsen around his days off—which fall roughly as often as the full mooon... Pictured PB is Jason Clarke.

Lamb is the Shepherd in Madoc Yarwoods profile. The two fell back in with one another after a desperate Shepherd came to Madoc after his turning.

"MARI"
![[Image: U1zGWJh.jpg]](https://i.imgur.com/U1zGWJh.jpg)
30-40 | WCAB | NO HOGWARTS | DRAGONKEEPER
"Mari" is the only other female dragonkeeper. Rather than share a room like some of the male keepers, "Mari" and Gwyn are able to have (signifigantly smaller) single rooms—and Mari has made it clear that if another woman comes into the house, Gwyn will be moving, not her. "Mari" is rather tight-lipped about her family and history, but happy (enough) to chat otherwise. She knows her own mind and has a stubbornness that rivals both Howell and Gwyn. In spite of not having a formal education, "Mari" is an animagus—which counts as "history" and so she will not discuss it. Period. Suggested PB is Michelle Rodriguez.

"PRYCE"
![[Image: eIpFSCW.jpg]](https://i.imgur.com/eIpFSCW.jpg)
40+ | WCAB | OPEN HOUSE | OWNER OF THE SMOKE & SCALE
Owner and frequent barkeep at the Smoke & Scale, the pub with the distinction of possessing the only public Floo in all of Avalon Glen. Becasue of this, "Pryce" knows just about everyone in the Glen—as well as everything that goes on. Though not originally from the Glen, his (late) wife was, and he returned to her home village after her death of the Laughing Plague. What he did prior to that is up to the player, but he has a seemingly endless arsenal of unexpected skills. Suggested PB is Nick Offerman.
