Jessamine Parkinson
FIRST SEASON (18) | DEBUTANTE | UCPB

Gossip Girl has finally made her grand debut! She is the youngest of the Parkinson children, and the youngest daughter. She is witty, clever, incredibly skilled at Transfiguration and a future animagus, and she dreams of marrying a first son in another upper class family and being the kind of lady other ladies look up to. She may have had a little indiscretion with a lower-middle class half-vampire in her youth, but nobody knows about that and she luckily came to her senses before she lost her virtue. She does wish for a love match if possible, but she isn't too hung up on the idea. Her parents will not rest until Jessamine has charmed the best of the best and her high dowry reflects this.

Hurling for:
  • Romance / Sentiment
  • Marriage
  • Sex (??? - If there's a good enough plot...)
  • Ongoing Affair
  • Unrequited

My Hurling Style Preference: CASUAL & PURPOSEFUL

IC Dealbreakers: Anyone not UCPB - Scandalous family.

IC Ideal: UCPB, first son, wealthy, handsome, worships the ground she walks on - ambitious
OOC Ideal: I do have high hopes for her, but I'm open to other plots if something interesting comes along.

Hurling Grounds: UC Events, Hogsmeade, London - Anywhere that makes sense for a young debutante?

Willa Kensington
21 | UCHB | DEBUTANTE

A seasoned debutante with a penchant for romance who may be on the verge of deciding to be a little less romantic.

Hurling for:
  • Marriage

My Hurling Style Preference: TARGETED - listen, all the fun of her starts once there is at least a Serious Interest, so I am keen to do whatever it takes to establish that. But I have no endgame.

IC Dealbreakers: Working class, vampire, that sort of thing? Just "entirely unsuitable in every way", basically

IC Ideal: kind, sociable, funny, wealthy man; someone who could be the center of attention at parties but also can make tongue in cheek jokes about society; someone who provides great orgasms indulges in romantic gestures; someone who loves her
OOC Ideal: a Perfectly Fine, Perfectly Suitable man to take an interest in her so that either her penpal suitors or her deeply closeted crushes on her female BFF can arise to Create Complications

Hurling Grounds: season events, London social areas/shops, Padmore Park on sunny days, Sanditon Resort

Cursed debutante is ready to do something desperate.
Hurling for:
  • Marriage, but I have no endgame in mind

My Hurling Style Preference: PURPOSEFULish

IC Dealbreakers: Younger than 26, WCAB.

IC Ideal: Kind. Marriage-seeking. A little weird. Enjoys puzzles.

Hurling Grounds: Any society events, anywhere she can acquire puzzles, Daff's flower shop

Nick Blott
MCHB| TRANSLATOR | COURTING DISASTER

Nick is a bit of a nerd and a know-it-all, but also vaguely useless. A Gryffinfail. He has big ambitions but next to no impulse control, so.

Hurling for:
  • Romance / Sentiment — not his priority, but could lead him into trouble
  • Marriage — he is looking for an advantageous marriage, more about appearances than affection. He wants money to buy out his old business partner and make Flourish & Blott's just. Blott's.
  • Sex — with women (not debutante types), or men, he is bi in denial
  • Ongoing Affair — could be with a man or a married woman! could lead to disastrous fallout! I'm here for it!

My Hurling Style Preference: CASUAL

IC Dealbreakers: Poverty.

IC Ideal: ^ very much as above
OOC Ideal: ^also very much as above, but I would especially be into either a scandalous, ill-advised relationship, and/or him actually connecting on an emotional/interest level with someone but going for the RICH HOT ONE out of his league instead. Also good for paying calls on and getting politely rebuffed by your debs, I'm here for rejection.

Hurling Grounds: Anywhere! MC/UC spaces in society, bookish places, Ministry, shady places for hookups



#54
Emerett Picardy
UCPB | RESEARCHER & AUTHOR & KNOWN WEREWOLF HATER | WIDOWER

Fresh out of a failed Ministerial bid, not so fresh out of a first marriage (he did not kill her), Emerett is seeking new ways to find ~public sway and a renewed foothold in society. It could be marriage. Or he could be a ~plot device~ for you, I'm not here to make him happy.

Hurling for:
  • Marriage

My Hurling Style Preference: CASUAL

IC Dealbreakers: Not a full human.

IC Ideal: UCAB, he doesn't care about blood purity. At least 21+. Beneficial society or Ministerial connections. Either of a like mind or otherwise malleable.

OOC Ideal: Anything goes! Do you want your debutante to be miserably married off? I can facilitate this.

Hurling Grounds: Wherever!



#55
Endymion Dempsey
UCHB | CURSEBREAKER| DEMISEXUAL DREAMER

He's a romantic, he likes flowers, he loves love but doesn't know how to fall in it, and desperately wants to marry but categorically won't unless he finds The One.

Hurling for:
  • Romance / Sentiment
  • Marriage

My Hurling Style Preference: PURPOSEFUL MAYBE? He does want to marry before he is Old.

IC Dealbreakers: Nope, although he has a high opinion of fidelity so would not act on any feelings w/already attached people even if he fell for them. He would prefer them not to work.

IC Ideal: A soulmate, lol. This season's ideal may depend on what Elliot tells him about his future in a current thread, so stay tuned? Previously he has bonded with other ~dreamy sorts and there has been a redhead trend???

OOC Ideal: Idk, someone WC or otherwise w/ a scandalous reputation or past to test his ~commitment to true love in the face of society?

Hurling Grounds: Wherever!

Desdemona Ravenswood
UCHB | UNATTACHED | FRESH DEBUTANTE

The youngest of the spread-out quartet of Ravenswood siblings, Desdemona is fresh-faced and eager to enter the world of society, at the gentle guiding hand of her older sister. She is not necessarily naive, but by virtue of being new to the scene, she has some innocence about her. Des was not a surprise baby.

Hurling for:
  • Romance / Sentiment
  • Unrequited

My Hurling Style Preference: CASUAL

IC Dealbreakers: Being more than twenty years her senior, being married or otherwise attached.

IC Ideal: Des really doesn't know what she wants yet in a gentleman, and isn't really looking seriously, as this is her first season. However, if romance comes to pass, she will gladly accept a courtship.
OOC Ideal: Gimme that unrequited love <3 I'm a sucker for idiots in love who don't know they're in love with each other especially!

Hurling Grounds: UC society events, anywhere a debutante might be found, High Street shops

Joshua Ellis
24 | UCHB | IN NEED OF A WIFE

Joshua has already inherited his estate, and he inherited young, after his father met an unfortunate end in a riding accident. He also operates his family's horse business, albeit mostly indirectly — he largely acts as a spokesperson type, convincing his peers to buy horses. He is truly passionate about animals, though he lacks his own personal purpose...for now.

Hurling for:
  • Romance / Sentiment
  • Marriage

My Hurling Style Preference: PURPOSEFUL

IC Dealbreakers: Unkind to animals, not wanting at least a moderately sized family, not UC (sorry, forgot to add he's classist)

IC Ideal: Joshua's ideals are...unreasonable. He wants nothing but perfection in his future bride.
OOC Ideal: All that to say, I really don't have any ideals, either, I will yeet him at all the appropriately eligible ladies.

Hurling Grounds: Joshua can really appear about anywhere.

Emmett Harper
UCHB | 29 | Unattached but Ready

Think what you want of me, but he is a Golden Retriever. Goofy, affable and a little bit dim when it comes to ladies. You may question if he's ready to settled down and frankly so do I, but he thinks he's ready, so let's goooooo.

Hurling for:
  • Romance / Sentiment
  • Marriage
  • Unrequited

My Hurling Style Preference: all the casual

IC Dealbreakers: anybody openly purist probably, I don't think he's gonna go for a fresh deb, but I really cannot tell.

IC Ideal: he's looking for a romance like his parents

OOC Ideal: I am looking for Chaos, as per usual.

Hurling Grounds: oh anywhere

Prometheus Pomfrey
MCPB | 35 Years | Unspeakable | Bisexual

A reserved young man with a greater affection for books than for people. His gentle, caring exterior belies a life full of well-kept secrets and a gathering darkness. Ever wanted a character to fall in love only to find out they're married to a mad scientist? Or a potential serial killer? Here you go!

Hurling for:
  • Romance / Sentiment
  • Marriage
  • Affairs (with other, descreet men)

My Hurling Style Preference: Purposeful for courtship/Season activites. Casual for anything else (like potential gay relationships.)

IC Dealbreakers: No Muggles, no WC women-- men in affairs must be discreet, but there is no class restriction.

IC Ideal: MC/UCAB, intellectual, he is invested in finding a wife more out of expectation than any real interest.
OOC Ideal: Would love to see someone fall in love with him and then, eventually, be horrified to learn what his experiments entail! Would enjoy seeing him in a convenient marriage while awkwardly engaging in a true romance with another man. Give me problems and drama!

Hurling Grounds: At the Ministry, or around Hogsmeade, would be the most common options.

Titania Applegate
UCPB | Debutante | 17 Years | Heterorequired

Returning after a prolonged illness, Titania seems in a terrible rush to find herself a suitable husband. Of course, no one can know she is crumbling under the weight of a worsening curse, staring madness in the eye and, in its face, rapidly losing control of her magic. There is a serious timer on her (trapping) finding a husband.

Hurling for:
  • Romance / Sentiment
  • Marriage

My Hurling Style Preference: Purposeful

IC Dealbreakers: Must be UC (things aren't bad enough to reach below her station yet.) No Muggles, no squibs.

IC Ideal: UCPB, wealthy and established-- she once dreamed of true power, of excelling in the public eye, and of romance, but those dreams seem to have flown in the face of desperation.

OOC Ideal: I would love to see her entangled with someone where her curse is going to be a problem in the future. Someone maybe of questionable reputation, or someone who intends to "fix her." Open for future blackmail plans-- if she goes a couple of years unwed at this point she may well have to pregnancy trap a man. (All that said, she could TOTALLY develop a crush on another lady, she just has to find a husband stat.)

Hurling Grounds: Various balls and UC events around Hogsmeade. Though she will not venture further yet, citing her fragile health, she will be attending any nad every Season event she can fit.

Holly Scrimgeour
18 | UCPB | DEBUTANTE


Debutante. Heirless. Lesbian. She won't love you (she can pretend) but she wants you to love her (only enough to put a ring on it). Her personality isn't great but she has money, which is all she thinks should matter.

Hurling for:
  • Romance (w/ female-identifying characters)
  • Marriage

My Hurling Style Preference: FREE FOR ALL

IC Dealbreakers: See below.

  • For marriage, Holly would only accept someone her family would accept: someone UCPB, respectable enough, and old enough to realistically be settled enough to marry. ICly she wants someone who she can either manipulate or who considers a wife a checkbox instead of someone to take actual interest in. OOCly I'm open to a more toxic dynamic, something one-sided, or something just batshit.

  • For romance, Holly prefers women, but she has never acknowledged it nor has she explored it. It's a free-for-all here, both ICly and OOcly >D

Hurling Grounds: London. Could be Hogsmeade. Idc.

Sutton Holbrook
UCPB | American Debutante | Single & Ready to Mingle


Sutton, her sister, mother, best friend and a couple other friends are Here for the Hurling! She is the quietest of the bunch, but is still fairly outgoing and does what her friends do, just less aggressively. The American Mamas were responsible for the Dance Card Hijinks, though Sutton does not know this specifically, her friends/mother have hinted at it.

Hurling for:
  • Romance / Sentiment
  • Marriage - love math, convenience, arranged!
  • Unrequited

My Hurling Style Preference: I rarely say this, but TARGETED. She's meant to be a temp, unless she gets engaged!

IC Dealbreakers: ehhhhh openly snobbish, derogatory against her American friends/fam

IC Ideal: UC/MCAB; Sutton has a Good dowry, so established or second son starting out OR upper MC would also probably be accepted for the Right Fit; kind, will let her be artsy and philanthropic

OOC Ideal: I have some new tropes that I want to see; age gap, protective/possessive. Also good for a marriage of convenience/friendship/financial reasons

Hurling Grounds: Hogsmeade/London/Season things
