{RPG EN} Hogwarts Life || Character Topic - Speeltopics

This RPG is written fully in English. If you ‘re doubting about your entry here, please don’t. It can be very disturbing for you ánd for others if they have to keep correcting you. I’d also say that I ask for more experienced roleplayers, but if you think you can do it, you’re welcome.

Hogwarts Life

Hogwarts, Hogwarts, hoggy warty Hogwarts,
Teach us something please,
Whether we be old and bald,
Or young with scabby knees,
Our heads could do with filling,
With some interesting stuff,
For now they're bare and full of air,
Dead flies and bits of fluff,
So teach us things worth knowing,
Bring back what we've forgot,
Just do your best, we'll do the rest,
And learn until our brains all rot.

Welcome to Hogwarts, the Magical school for witchcraft and wizardry.

Rules:
- If you get in a fight with another player, don’t start fighting in the RPG.
- If you talk Out of Character, put it in between brackets: {} [] ().
- ONLY ENGLISH, even when out of Character.
- Don’t get mad if someone corrects you, they’re just helping you!
- 16+ is allowed, no exceptions really, but don’t start on the first page of the first topic. Keep it a bit realistic (As far as that is possible, saying it’s a RPG about a wizard-school).
- I ask for some experience.
- At least 6/7 sentences. It’s not really that much, you can always describe the scenery, your feelings, etc. Again: it’s not that much.
- No Mary Sue’s, that’s bloody annoying.
- Do not play with other characters except for your own. Again: Bloody annoying.
- 2 characters max.
- Reservations last for 2 days.
- Please try to post AT LEAST once per two days.

Tips:
- There’s a difference between ‘your’ and ‘you’re’.
- ‘I’ (Als in het Nederlandse ‘Ik’) is ALWAYS written with a capital letter. Please notice that.
- Watch grammar and interpunction.
- …

I’m starting off with 5 students each house. I know Gryffindor and Slytherin are the most popular, but please try to mix it a bit.

Could you just point out the mistakes I made? I'd like to know what I did wrong, so I won't make the same mistake over and over (or try to not make the same mistake over and over). Just so I can improve my English?

Okay, I'll take a look!

Something like this. Your English is sometimes a bit stiff, but that's not really wrong (:

Edit: The best thing for you to practice with, is to put the words in a sentence in the right way. The words you use are good

Oké, thanks. But most of the time it's just that I forget a letter or word.^^

Student/Teacher/Etc: Student
Full Name: Ashley 'Ash' Felice Delacroix
Age: 17
Wand: walnut, 12 inches, inflexible, veela hair.
Blood-status: Pureblood
House: Slytherin
Patronus: Ashley doesn't have a patronus yet, because of her past and her life outside of Hogwarts. She is quite ashamed because of this; that's why she doesn't tell anyone about it.
Appearance (It’s nice if you have a picture, but it isn’t necessary):
Inner: Ashley is a quiet girl. She doesn't talk a lot, but if she does, she speaks out of wisdom or anger. Most of the time she's drowning in her own, miserable thoughts.
Ashley isn't afraid to tell you what she thinks. She hates lying, despite of the fact she has to do that very often. It isn't a secret that she loves to pick a fight. Most of the students at Hogwarts know that, probably because she abused, cursed or mistreated them. The only feeling Ashley knows is hate and anger.
Secretly she is desperate to find a little love in her cold, hateful life, but of course she doesn't show that to the people around her. She calls it weakness; showing your feelings.
Although she wants it, she doesn't really believe there is real and longlasting love. When she was a little girl she already was told that men are idiots; they only break your heart. 'At the end someone gets hurt,' her mother told Ashley. She never knew her father.
At this very moment Ashley doesn't trust even one single person, but when she does, you have a loyal friend, who would catch a bullet for you. She isolates herself from everything and anybody around her; she's afraid to get hurt. Besides, she's very ashamed of the life she lives; the fact Ashley is a Death Eater makes her hate herself even more, because one side of her absolutely loves her. This sadistic person shows up very often to hide the tender, sweet girl deep inside of Ashley. This may be slightly confusing; not only from people around her, but for Ashley, too. She hates herself, but at the same time her arrogance is all she got. She knows she's pretty, and that is what she uses to seduce people.
Year: Seventh
Favourite Subject:Defence against the dark arts and Potions. She also loves Astrology, but her grades aren't that good.
Worst Subject: Magical History and Muggle Studies. She chose the second subject because it was the most easy subject to pick; she actually hates muggles more than anything.
Extra (Quidditch team member, past, etc.): Since the moment she was able to, Ashley turned into a Death Eater. It wasn't her own choice, though; her mother wanted her to. The relationship between Ashley and her mother is bad; let's say her mother isn't afraid to use some curses when Ashley isn't doing something right. There's no love and her mother is a little insane, sometimes.
Ashley her mother is in Azkaban for a few weeks now; it broke Ashley's heart. Although she isn't happy with that person as her mother; it's her own flesh and blood. She doesn't have anyone who's there to take care of Ashley, that's why she had to do that herself at a very young age.

This is what I've got so far; I'll fill in her Appearance in a few hours or maybe tomorrow. And yes, I love drama; that'll explain it all. :W

Are there woods and cores we aren't allowed to use for our wands?

Student/Teacher/Etc: Student
Full Name: Nora Destry Livingstone
Age: 15
Wand: 14,5 inches, Wood of the Elmtree, core made of Phoenix Feather
Blood-status: Unknown
House: Hufflepuff
Patronus: Serval (looks like a small jaguar, but with really large ears)
Appearance:

Click!
Blonde hair with some natural brown highlights, bright green eyes, light skin colour.
Inner: Nora is a bit shy, and doesn't like to be in really large crowds. Her favorite place is in a windowsill together with Trident and some music or a nice book. Only when she plays Quidditch, she's really fanatic and extroverted. She's really musical, she plays piano, guitar and she can sing really good. But because of her shyness she doesn't play much.
Year: 4
Pet:

A djungarian hamster called Trident, because he has some stripes on his back which looks like a Trident.
Favourite Subject: Care of magical creatures and Herbology
Worst Subject: Potions, she always tries to do it right, but somehow all her potions become what they shouldn't be.
Extra (Quidditch team member, past, etc.): She's a keeper at the Quidditch team.
She was raised in different families. Her parents died and she was placed in a few families by the government, but always there were some problems why she had to leave. One time she was raped, another time someone commited suicide and she was blamed for it, etcetera, etcetera. Her bloodstatus is unknown, because no one knows who or what they were.

I think this is it...
If there are any mistakes, please tell me...
Is her history too much drama by the way?

Tip:

Is my character good, so far?

"When all of your wishes are granted, many of your dreams will be destroyed.''

Character Description:
Student/Teacher/Etc: Teacher
Full Name: Jeffrey Keegan Anderson
Age: 32 *Born on the 11th of march*
Wand: Unicorn tail hair, Fir wood, rigid, 13 inches.
Blood-status: Pureblood
House: --
Patronus: otter.
Appearance (It’s nice if you have a picture, but it isn’t necessary):

Jeffrey is 6’2 and if you compare him to his father, he’s not that tall. He’s got dark brown hair and matching eyes. Though his eyes are brown, they seem a little greyish when he’s sad.
Inner: Jeffrey is really patient and honest. He doesn’t mind explaining the same thing over and over again. However, he can get a little cranky now and then. When he’s cranky he doesn’t like anything or anyone. It’s really hard to annoy him, but once you managed to piss him off you better run and hide. He often thinks he’s funny, but he really isn’t. Often when he realises he isn’t funny, he gets cranky. There isn’t anything you can do about it, except for laughing at his silly jokes. He lost his wife five years ago. Some ‘stupid’ muggle hit her with a car when they were visiting his parent-in-law. This is also why he doesn’t like muggles. It’s not that he’s mean to them, or hates them, he just doesn’t really trust them with cars. His wife was a halfblood, by the way. Jeffrey’s wife used to tell him stories about her dying in the most spectacular ways. So it was really tragic that she eventually died because of a car accident. Jeffrey’s still sad, but doesn’t talk to anyone about it.
Year:
Pet:
Favourite Subject: transfiguration
Worst Subject: His worst subject was potions
Extra (Quidditch team member, past, etc.): His daughter attends Hogwarts, she’s in the second year now.
He's an animagus, a bird. This is why he became a transfiguration teacher.

Blood-status: Pureblood
House: Slytherin
Patronus:
Appearance (It’s nice if you have a picture, but it isn’t necessary):

Inner: Dreven is the kind of person that you would describe as a bully, arrogant and spoiled, the kind of guy who thinks that he's everything. That's how he looks like for almost everything, apart from the few friend/people he trusts. But even the people he trusts he doesn't tell everything, cause sometimes how he acts is not how he feels. True, he likes to make people feel pain, but he doesn't want to disappoint people, specially his parents.
Year: 8

Worst Subject: Care of Magical Creatures, Muggle Studies and Herbology.
Extra (Quidditch team member, past, etc.):
- Dreven has a girlfriend, named Lucy
- Dreven has a (older) brother named Steven.
- Dreven is a Deatheater, just like his dad and his mom (who where the reason that he became one).
- In his past, Dreven's parents thought him that he should be proud, proud that he's pureblood, proud to be a Malum one of the (according to them) few and best pureblood families there is.

If you'd like, you could create a brother of Ashley? Her past is pretty dramatic, though, but it would be nice if she had a 'normal' family member left. :W
If you agree, it's up to you how good or bad their relationship is.
