Pairs are chosen randomly and they must turn an object into an animal. The spell takes either one strong wizard or two regular wizards to cast it together. Trenton Taylor is an exceptionally strong wizard of Hogwarts and gets paired with [insert your character] who sees using the Ravenclaw student as an easy-A and uses her feminine charms to convince him to do the spell on his own. Despite how tired it makes him, he's able to complete the spell without her help until one day, the Quidditch team approached him and asked him to join, thus taking away his time to study and practice; meaning he is unable to complete the spell on his own anymore. After thinking he was being 'lazy' and 'dodging the assignment' YC shows up to the Ravenclaw practice to see just how hard he was working to his new found love of Quidditch. And from there they finally bond. [hider=Trenton Taylor][center]╔══════════════╗[/center] [center][b][h2]𝕋renton 𝕋aylor[/h2][/b][/center] [center][IMG]http://i63.tinypic.com/312wmlz.jpg[/IMG][/center] [center]16 year old[/center] [center]6th year student[/center] [center][IMG]https://www.hp-lexicon.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/shield_rav.jpg[/IMG][/center] [center] ╚══════════════╝[/center] [b]Personality[/b] Trenton has always been an innocent individual, never really exposed to much and awkwardly charming in his own way. His intelligence puts him at the top ranks of his class and because of his studies he really lacks in social interaction. He’s kind hearted and willing to help anyone who needs it and has difficulty telling people ‘no’. In fact it’s almost impossible for him to do so which means anyone who is nice to him can honestly take advantage of his kindness but… well that hasn’t happened yet. [b]Background[/b] Growing up in the magical world as brought a lot of power to the Taylor family. The family climbed up through the ranks of the Ministry of Magic and are one of the oldest generations to be represented within the Ministry and the magical community and as the only child of a high ranking Taylor official, Trenton was always expected to do well in school and it came as no surprise that, like the other Taylor people before him, he was enrolled into Ravenclaw. Trenton took to his studies like wild fire for two reasons. One, his parents wanted him to and two, he wanted two. When he was home and needed to attend political parties, his parents had nothing to brag about for their son so when he finally got his letter for Hogwarts, they always expected him to return with good grades. “It will help you find a good partner, both in business and in love.” Was his parents way of thinking and while he didn’t agree entirely with the ‘love’ part, he did agree with the business partner. Together with someone as intelligent as him, he could make the world a better place. And that, is Trenton’s overall goal while at Hogwarts. Get smarter in order to make the world a better place.[/hider][/hider] [hider=Tri-Wizard Tournament] This revolves around the Tri-Wizard Tournament but instead of a single person from each school participating, they participate in pairs.

The term ‘social butterfly’ comes to mind when describing such a talkative person. Like many people, it took Melanie years to break out of her shy shell but once she did, she was ready to talk to the world… even if the world wasn’t exactly ready to talk to her. Her loving personality invites many people to come talk to her but that isn’t without a bit of sass. Despite her kind nature, she isn’t afraid to stand up for people but has difficulty standing up for herself. She’ll sass you to the moon and back if you are rude to her friends but she would rather not speak up for herself. Her clumsy nature tends to get in the way and she finds herself randomly giving the ground a hug on more than one occasion throughout the week. However you couldn’t ask for a more kind or helpful soul to have by your side.

The bright cheery blonde is always someone to have a smile on her face, pep in her step and a giggle in her voice. Some people accuse her of being fake happy but that’s not the case. She’s just genuinely happy. With her outlook on life being a positive one and being at school learning MAGIC, how can you not be happy?! [center][img] https://i.pinimg.com/564x/c9/81/42/c98142b06e2c560b130bf4cf29da4807.jpg [/img][/center] [center][img] https://fontmeme.com/permalink/181024/f1cd93f84abf9e39fc27529b1e5d2d89.png [/img][/center] The eldest of 6 children and a 7th on the way, Astoria grew up with a loving mom, a kind father and a caring grandmother and it wasn’t until she received her letter at 11 that she was discovered to be a witch. Her parents, the open minded individuals they were ventured with the young girl to shop within the magical world. It should come as no surprise that they were all a bit baffled and her twin brother Aston confused why he couldn’t go to the same school as Astoria. In all fairness, her parents handled it well but it also helped that her mother was an interpersonal communication professor at Oxford University and her father was a popular lawyer within the town as well. So her brother understood why he couldn’t go and the family was introduced to the magic world. This thrilled Astoria, as she was a ten second younger then Aston and always got the short end of the stick from her brother and now she had a leg up on him. And that began their playful banter with each other, and even in letters back and forth they showed the playfulness. There are a set of triplets, three girls and a boy with another baby boy on the way. Once in Hogwarts, the girl took to the classes like a fish to water. Excited to find herself picking up a broom for the first time, it was a challenge but she was able to do it and as soon as she was allowed to fly, she was gone. It didn’t take long for the Hufflepuff Quidditch team to catch wind of her talents on a broom and she was recruited as a Chaser during her second year. It was hard but she loved playing as much as she loved school. Her studies took her to new heights and she was able to develop her skills as a witch and her social skills. The blonde quickly became known throughout her house as being approachable, talkative and reliable and by her third year she was known throughout most of the houses that she was easy to get along with. She loved talking to people so it wasn’t uncommon to find her leaving her friends to sit with someone who was by themselves, houses didn’t matter and she didn’t care; she wanted to be friends with everyone. Despite her desire to be friends with everyone, she has about 6 close friends and people she was willing to rely upon but that’s okay, she liked it that way. Now in her 6th year she has a chance to participate in the Tri-Wizard Tournament and the goblet is now choosing two representatives instead of one from each school. HOW EXCITING!!!

It is quite true that it requires particular deftness to work with spruce, which produces wands that are ill-matched with cautious or nervous natures, and become positively dangerous in fumbling fingers. The spruce wand requires a firm hand, because it often appears to have its own ideas about what magic it ought to be called upon to produce. However, when a spruce wand meets its match - which, in my experience, is a bold spell-caster with a good sense of humour - it becomes a superb helper, intensely loyal to their owners and capable of producing particularly flamboyant and dramatic effects. [img] https://fontmeme.com/permalink/181024/08e9fbc060eee87814310e979afa74bc.png [/img] As a rule, dragon heartstrings produce wands with the most power, and which are capable of the most flamboyant spells. Dragon wands tend to learn more quickly than other types. While they can change allegiance if won from their original master, they always bond strongly with the current owner. The dragon wand tends to be easiest to turn to the Dark Arts, though it will not incline that way of its own accord. It is also the most prone of the three cores to accidents, being somewhat temperamental. [img] https://fontmeme.com/permalink/181024/e3d2c4ceed39c7e89ec92ba5124e8963.png [/img] The following notes on wand length are taken from notes on the subject by Mr Garrick Ollivander, wandmaker: “Most wands will be in the range of between nine and fourteen inches. While I have sold extremely short wands (eight inches and under) and very long wands (over fifteen inches), these are exceptionally rare. In the latter case, a physical peculiarity demanded the excessive wand length. However, abnormally short wands usually select those in whose character something is lacking, rather than because they are physically undersized (many small witches and wizards are chosen by longer wands).”[/hider][/hider][/hider] [list][*]Foreign Exchange Student [*]Student x Student [*]Quidditch Player x Fan [*]Quidditch Player x Quidditch Player [*]Auror x Auror [*]Shop Owner x Shop Owner [*]Professor x Professor[/list]
