1) Anyone who has posted here in the OOC inquiring about whether they can join or not needs to PM me. Since I'm not currently accepting characters, you'll be put on a waiting list, and I don't want to have to fish out every single inquiry from the 14 pages of OOC. Thanks in advance :)

2) I'm working on the end of my post, now. I'm sorry it's taken me so long. Writers block has hit me, due to the multitude of homework I've been slammed with for like the past week. I have been a horrible GM and I hope that you guys can forgive me. I am going to post now, and hopefully I will be set to post regularly for the next few days, and I'm also off all next week...but I will be gone next weekend for a bat netting trip. Depending on how the reception is in the mountains, I might not be online for those three days and will have to hide my characters or allow them to be NPC'd for a few days, which sucks.

3) You guys are awesome, and this group is my favorite I'm RPing with right now. You're all courteous and great writers and I appreciate everything you do.

Absolutely. I have a stupid work schedule today and some homework to finish tonight, but in between all of that, I'm going to get a post up for my first two characters, and while I'm doing homework tonight, you and I can work on the collaboration. Bats and Harry Potter...woooot.

Anna, no worries. We can all hold together. We got a good group of nice people going so we can take care of ourselves for a while if you ever can't. As long as you let us know we can figure out what to do. And in the meantime, you do you.

So much talk of helping Muggles. Honestly, the wizarding world should just say, "Hey, go ahead an use all the nuclear energy you want. Let us be and we'll just vanish away the waste for you and set up some protective charms just in case." Or just design a generator that can take advantage of summoning, banishing and duplication spells. If anything, energy companies are probably the people driving this anti-wizard movement. A whole world-wide community of people who can break the law of conservation of energy with a few words and gestures? That's bad for business.

What Wizards *Should* do and what they *will* do is very different. Wizards have not helped muggles out all this time, why would they start now? I don't think ti is about business. There is a DEEP cultural divide between the wizard and muggle world that, despite the incident with Voldermort and the big-reveal, has not been bridged. Even if one CAN solve someone elses problems should they? Can they really? It's complicated to say the least...

... this is a good 'bridge' to intro my new character! A muggle reporter. She will NOT be a consistent character, but I will occasional write up some articles or something by her.

Name: Olesia Darby

Age: 30

Year: N/A

Gender: Female

House: N/A

Magical Heritage: Muggle

Appearance:


Backstory/Personality:

Olesia is a journalist and activist.

She always showed a talent for writing and storytelling. As a child she would write little plays and force her family members to perform them. She particularly liked fairy tales and fantasy. She went to all the best schools, all and all she was a bright and well behaved girl with a promising future.

Everything changed when she was 10 years old. She was orphaned by death eaters during Voldemort's rising. They were one of many muggle victims during that time. The exact circumstances of their death remained a mystery, as well as exactly who the killers were and their purpose.

Her parents were dead and magic revealed in the same day. Her worldview changed drastically.

Olesia was taken in by her other family members. She started going to public schools. She began to question authority and retaliate constantly. It wasn’t simple teenage rebellion, her disruptive actions always served a purpose: feminism, racism, equality, the environment. She kept writing, but instead of fairy tales she began to write angry letters to her principal and senators. She was passed around various family members as she was expelled from various middle and high schools for various acts of civil disobedience.

In college she went City University of London to study journalism. She began to turn her critical eye to the wizarding world among other things. As dissent was growing among muggles toward their magical neighbors, Olesia added in her voice, and perhaps persuaded others to join.

She has won a few awards for her editorials in college. She writes independently, but she has a following and is published in many popular muggle journals, magazines and newspapers. Especially when she writes about Wizards.

She has been called out for toeing the line between activist and radical. Her response is “Call me a radical if you wish, but don’t call me a ‘muggle’, us so-called-’muggles’ need to start asking the hard questions, and asking as loud as we can until we get answers.”

She is currently working on an article titled “Are you a good witch, or a bad witch? And why the question is irrelevant.”

Wand: none

Personal items and pets: Sketchbook, notepad, and tape recorder, and camera are on her person at all times.

Special Gifts and Abilities: A gift for provocative words, riling up the masses to a cause.

Yeah very good point. I was just thinking along the lines of "We'll do this for you if you just leave us alone."

Okay, your reporter character is simply awesome. Definitely someone who will help maintain the feeling of anti-wizard stuff going on. I'm not sure if you caught it, but Mr. Archer is a Muggle journalist as well. He's obviously writing from the other viewpoint, and much less well-known. I figure he has some strong opinions on her so we can definitely expect an interesting reaction from Roy to anything that comes up concerning Olesia. Although I can't imagine anyone at Hogwarts will have a positive response. On another note, I'd love to see what Rita Skeeter would have to write about her.

OOOH! They can respond to each other in their writings... at some point they could have a debate! We could build up all this tension as they read each others articles and get more and more angry with the other. And when they meet... we will see what happens XD

Now....to concoct a potion to make Olesia completely lose her memory....

Amelia being interviewed: "Here, have some tea and take a seat by all means; rest your weary bones. And yes it is tea. Drink up."

ONLY KIDDING. She would never do something like that.
