I didn't get the impression that he would be, quite honestly. Her inharent power means that she doesn't really need magic ink... or ink at all for that matter.
Really, her family left a bad taste in her mouth in regard to the witching community. She'll likely go out of her way to avoid the community until someone hunts her down, or until her customers start noticing weird side effects.

I know that this RP is already rolling, but I'm wondering if you'd let me join. I read the first post and saw nothing about being closed or anything, so I felt compelled to ask on the current status of the RP.

Thanks. I wasn't aware of that. As I said, I read the first post -- but only the first post. Hope this goes well. I'll be following this one. :D

Oops, I should put that in there! Sorry bout that! I'll let you and Syblyx know when we open up again. :)
@All: Lovin' the posts and the discussion! I'm trying to work in some more detail for the setting/plot/etc. If any of you have any questions about specifics that may have come up while writing your post or reading others' posts about the world, magic, whatever, let me know. I want to clear up any confusion you guys might have. As an example of this, "Vague College Land" has been renamed to "East Wellsburg". How exciting!

@Doctor: Love 'Bastian's thoughts on Graham :P

@ToskaO: Graham and Adelaide will know each other for sure, the details of their relationship I'd like your thoughts on. But he'd have gotten some work done by her most likely, so they'd at least recognize each other.

Ah, right. He'd definitely distrust Sebastian, naturally. But he'd be interested in what he has to offer. I'd expect some sort of banter between the two, as Graham gets tired of what he perceives to be questionable interest on 'Bastian's part.

@Moon: Sounds good to me. Quite frankly, Adelaide is going to need a catalyst to pull her into the main story once it emerges, otherwise she'll avoid other magic users like the plague. As for specifics; nothing comes to mind immediately, but I'll look over what's up so far (CS's and posts) and see if I cant come up with something. I'm also open to hearing your suggestions.
If the picture on your CS is an accurate on the tattoo front, they'd probably do more than recognise eachother. While they might not be actuall friends, they've probably talked enough that they could be considered a little more than aquantainces.

Of course, the less Sebastian trusts him, the more he pays attention to him.

Katherine Pierce, distrust. The family is fiercely insular and doesn't really embrace the wider community and he doesn't expect much more from her – he's keeping an eye on her. But, hey, she's hot!


Well the distrust is mutual XD. No but seriously Katherine doesn't trust anyone so don't feel bad, it's her not you. Your spot on on the Petrov family being insular. Though they usually try to get at least a general impression of the community so they know what they're dealing with. Which people can be used as a means to an end, that sort of thing. I don't really know how long Katherine has been going to college. That would affect her realtionship with Sebastian. A year or two compared to one or two weeks makes quite the difference. I think I want her to be fairly settled in. I'd say she's been going to college for little over a year. Katherine knows who he is, and quite possibly what he's doing in his spare team. It wouldn't be completely ridiculous if she "dreamed" about him. Her dreams are random like that and can give her equally random and confusing info. She might or might not know he's a witch. If she does it opens up a whole lot of possibilities. Another pawn for her scheming and plotting mind.

He's not a secret. Those students relevant to him are supposed to be in the know, and I like to think he has periodic meetings with each of them (which he would take about as seriously as the students) in order to double-check they're not going to go whacko and sabotage another family. He also won't bother to keep his extracurricular activities secret - it's not in his interest for emerging (in more ways than one) members of the magical community to be ignorant of what he does.

Oh right scrap that then ^.^

Well those periodic meetings should be fun *wink*. If Katherine catches on to his "appreciative" eye things could get interesting.

Which may pose a problem with Paz. He can have the meetings, but he honestly has no idea what's going on (he probably would think it was just a periodic counseling session). Pazel's mother wanted him out of the witch world so kept him oblivious to it all. The Flamels have also kept their promise to leave Pazel out of the circle until he becomes a witch. If he fails to become one, they leave him and his family alone forever.

…But we all know he's going to become a witch sooner or later ;)

@All: Pazel has seen, and maybe been in the same classes with, the other student characters, but that's probably about it. He knows nothing about witches so never treated the non-witches and witches differently.

As for the other non-college related characters, Paz knows absolutely nothing about. Unless he becomes acquainted with them through some kind of part time job.

Maybe Paz will work at some kind of bar/cafe/restaurant place that a lot of the characters go to. *Shrugs*

If it's not too late to jump on the forming-relations bandwagon, I'd like to see if I can bribe convince someone to perhaps have known li'l ol' Em for a bit? Especially someone who didn't know they were a witch or something? I don't know.
Who knows? Maybe she'll form a nice friendship and realize she's a racist come to terms with the idea of witches, or not. :'D

Allow me to pile onto the bandwagon, as I wouldn't mind Lienne having a few acquaintances/friends/partners in crime. Witch or non-witch, really. Actually, witch may be more interesting. Mimesis!
That said, I would also like to throw her Order hat in the ring, perhaps either having been requested or having decided on her own that she'd like to keep tabs on any number of the unaffiliated Hunters. You know, mentor or simply someone to try and nudge them back to the Order. Or away from at gathering speed.

Or just drink copiously with, as there is nothing at all strange about a woman her age drinking with college kids.

Not at all.

Which I suppose would be fine. Do American universities have personal tutors that students can talk to if they have problems or need some pastoral care? If so, then the powers that be would simply have arranged for it to be Sebastian, and, yes, Sebastian would impose the same informal meetings on Pazel as he imposes on the other witches in his care.

Not having to deal with his witchy shit is just a bonus.

@JJ: It's probably a pretty small shop, and she likely wouldn't have the money to pay anyone. That said, she'd probably be perfectly willing to sponsor an apprentice... She's probably a pain in the a** to apprentice to, though.

@upscalerat: I got the impression that Em and Adelaide would get along farily well. If you'd like for them to know eachother somehow, I'm sure we could make it fit pretty easily.

…

Oh wait, are you talking about Paz (the "especially someone who didn't know they were a witch or something" part)? Oh yeah, they can totally be acquaintances/friends.

Lets see… Em's a graduate student for astrology right? They have different majors and are not even on the same education level so… maybe she can be a tutor? Paz is not a complete idiot, but he can get horrendous grades if he's not interested in the subject matter.

Or they could became acquaintances/friends through something unrelated to school. Uh… maybe at a party? Through a mutual friend? At the part time job that I have yet to decide for Paz? Extra curricular activities?

I wonder, would she have met Rosenkreuz on a witch-hunting job?

@Teknopathetic: I'm starting to thinking Paz working part time at a bar/cafe is the best way to get aquatinted with non-student characters. Especially if the character is a regular customer.

Maximilienne would have probably ran into Rosenkreuz during a job a number of times (ze has killed witches and people from the Order). Rosenkreuz could bother her off duty (or vice versa).

@Doctor Belasco: Private schools tend to do whatever they want. If the Andersons want to keep tabs on every witch-affiliated individual they'd probably want Sebastian to keep an eye on Paz. The Flamels could have requested the Andersons to mask Sebastian's meetings as counseling sessions (and give some BS reason for Pazel to go the sessions... something psychology major related). The Flamels would pay extra (or provide a discount for their magic ingredients/artifacts) for Sebastian to report them about Pazel.

@ToskaO: …Actually that sounds kind of fun… *Thinks about it* Her unhealthy appearance probably would make Pazel want to feed her.

Oh, by any chance, would she go to a bar or cafe often? I'm debating if Pazel should work there instead (so he has the chance to meet other non-student characters) or as Adelaide's nanny apprentice---… or Pazel could work at the shop that supplies Adelaide's tattoo ink/supplies. I'm kind of leaning on the bar/cafe, but Adelaide's apprentice is appealing too.
