How To Behave
#17
Student: Yuri Podsnapper
Year: 3rd
Blood & Class: Halfblood (publicly unknown) and LC, but ward of UC gent
Reputation Factors: Presumed bastard, was a statue for the better part of 15 years . He is trying to be a good person.

Student: Cadawalader Selwyn
Year:7th
Blood & Class: UCPB
Where Would YOU Put Them: Swan
Reputation Factors: Father has a known bastard, but she married exceptionally well.

How Would They Perform @ Tea: Exceptionally -he can pass himself well in company, indeed his behaviour is sufficiently manipulative as to be able to pass himself off as charming and affable.

What is your greatest ambition?
At the moment it's to be considered just about the most eligible young man in the ton - eventually a Lucius Lestrange level of respect and authority


How do you approach failure?
It's a source of anxiety and to be avoided at all cost. He expects himself to be perfect, or able to pass for perfect at all times.


Tell me about your favourite relation.
If he was answer he would say Deanna Benwick, one of his in-laws who was the former etiquette professor, but he desperately wants his parents approval and to liked by them, but thats not really the same thing.

Happy to thread for the lols if you want more threads, but I feel like the results are pretty inevitable xD

How Would They Perform @ Tea: Will put on his best impression of a posh person and run his mouth with nonsense while surreptitiously trying to flick biscuit crumbs at her.
What is your greatest ambition?
"I dunno."

"Pfft, failure? Never heard of her."

Tell me about your favourite relation.
"Alright, so there's my Great Uncle Biff Whipple III who is two hundred and twenty-three and wears a monocle like this /scrunches face. He had seven wives and forty-two dogs and he owns all the mines in England. Whenever he's annoyed at someone he drops them down a mine... nah, he just beats them with his walking stick until they fall over, but I like him because —"

Student: Callum Finnigan
Year: 1st
Blood & Class: Pureblood, Upper class
Reputation Factors: Hmmmmmmmm~~~ He's 'new money' and very, proudly Irish. His family is increasingly more interested in politics, so I'm sure Cal follows along with it esp. as he ages. He's a rather quiet, sporty type of kid but he tries really hard. At being polite, gentlemanly, etc etc. He had the 'right' upbringing, governess and all, but he's not the most interested at this stage in being the perfect little heir. He tries to ignore it mostly. That said, he vys for the underdog and is very protective; he is not above a tussle if he thinks the situation warrants it and probably gets into fights more than anyone would like. Otherwise, kinda quiet and generally sweet.

#21
Student: Quincy Smellie
Year: Second
Blood & Class: Muggleborn & Middle
Reputation Factors: Being Muggleborn his appearance and actions are his reputation - as who cares about muggles...  He always tried to appear neat and put together going with simple clothes so he can have less of them but look better.  Ambitious and dreams of being a surgeon - but doesn't know how that fits in the wizarding world yet.  So he now just says healer.  Made the quidditch team as a first year which distracted him from the high grades he wanted to achieve.

#22
Student: Chuntao Chang
Year: first
Blood & Class: Pure /Middle
Reputation Factors: He’s a rather quiet boy who wants to do well at schooling, but he is a child and of course distractions happen. (Especially with his friends.) He has a habit of measuring him against others.

#23
Student: Rowan Tatting
Year: First Year
Blood & Class: MCHB
Where Would YOU Put Them: OWL
Reputation Factors:
  • Her mother married up from the working class to middle class
  • She is an identical twin
How Would They Perform @ Tea:
What is your greatest ambition?
"I wanna work in the Ministry like my Pa. I mean I know ma wants me to work in the shop but I don't know. I guess I don't really think making robes all day is for me. I don't know what exactly I want to do in the ministry, but I have time to figure that out."

How do you approach failure?
"I get really angry in the moment but it does motivate me to do better in the long run once I cool down."

Tell me about your favourite relation.
"I'd have to say my sister, though I guess that is pretty obvious. We've always had each other and we always will. Nothing will change that."

Would love a thread, but know we're busy!

Student: Anne Moony
Year: 3rd
Blood & Class: Working class Halfblood
Where Would YOU Put Them: Owl or sparrow. If she has a sense she's being tested, she's going to freaking rise to the challenge and get herself to something higher.
Reputation Factors: Dad went a bit nutty, and Anne wears this chip on her shoulder. She's the younger sister of Edison Moony, who is well-behaved, responsible, and well-liked. Especially concerned with being mature and responsible. She plays quidditch and sees no issue with this.
How Would They Perform @ Tea: Polite, but would have difficulty sitting still for a long tea, could get highly annoyed with the ritual and it would be clear on her face. She hates small talk.
What is your greatest ambition?
It never occurred to her that she might be anything but a success. She plans on leading in whatever career she takes on. Anne wants to be a curse breaker or auror; as long as she can protect her family.

How do you approach failure?
Will silently beat herself silly over it, will get singleminded about it never happening again.

Tell me about your favourite relation.
daddy Her brother, hands down. He's good at everything, as far as she's concerned and he can do little wrong, even though she's getting progressively more annoyed by his attempts to parent her.

#27
Student: Hesper Gamp
Year: 4th
Blood & Class: UCPB
Where Would YOU Put Them: Swan, maybe peacock
Reputation Factors: She was born MC but her great aunt has spent years beating the MC out of her
How Would They Perform @ Tea: She'd have the etiquette side of things down pat but her overall manner would probably be a bit crisp and starchy because she hasn't had a chance to practice it for real and she doesn't get much chance to watch real life examples.
What is your greatest ambition?
To escape the tyranny of her great aunt which she's realizing will probably have to be through marriage.

How do you approach failure?
Shame, frustration, stubbornly try again.

Tell me about your favourite relation.

Student: Mildred "Millie" Potts
Year: Third
Blood & Class: Halfblood, Middle Class
Where Would YOU Put Them: Owl or Raven. Millie's adventurous/free-spirited side was stronger as a child, and slowly reeled in by parents who weren't as attentive in her earlier years.
Reputation Factors: Her family is well known for their biotanical talents, her father/uncle are well-regarded Herbologists and her aunt/cousins run several flower shops of good repute. Millie herself is a bit quiet/unassuming, and doesn't apply herself in classes as much as to her novels.
How Would They Perform @ Tea: She knows what's expected of her so she'd be polite but perhaps a little quiet or dry. If it takes place in the same house she lives in, she might show up without shoes.
What is your greatest ambition?
To prove her father she should be allowed to stay at Hogwarts until her NEWTs.

How do you approach failure?
Some mourning, and then a renewed reminder of her goals.

Tell me about your favourite relation.
Her cousin, Zinnia Potts, who is equally happy to sit in solitude painting while Millie reads.
