A Wizard's Pilgrimage

Doctor Belasco said I was thinking of, prior to designing him, making Michael a Slytherin in order to give Grant that connection, but then Logan would be in the same situation.

The situation of having no friends? I wouldn't say that, Logan could've met people any number of ways besides being members of the same House. There's the most obvious route, being Quidditch/Dueling club, or the more subtle route of mayhaps Logan scammed a couple members of the group and made it up to them with companionship and what not. Heck, don't Prefects/Quidditch Players/so on, so forth get their own special party in the Great Hall near the end of the year or something along those lines? Heck, Logan even gets access to that super exclusive bathroom.

It's all a matter of whether or not ya'll want to know Logan from previous engagments, or stick to knowing of him and his reputation from going to the same school, as it was my understanding we don't strictly need to know each other on a personal level to be going on this seemingly long-running traditional voyage.

Peanut butter cupcakes

As a man with what some would say is a pathological obsession with anything peanut butter related, (especially Reese's) I'm amazed I never knew these existed.

And now I want some. Now to google the recipe.

YGO!

I feel very out of the Yu-Gi-Oh loop considering the most recently made card I have in my deck is Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon, which, from the general consensus when I ask people about it, is a rather lethal card in Dragon-themed decks.

Shit I hardly even know how Synchro monsters work let alone all this Xyz stuff.

I should probably just stay in my closest with huge boxes containing hundreds if not thousands of old trading cards from the 1990s.

If a Star Wars and Marvel crossover ever happened.

Darog the Badger God said Luke would horribly fail against Galactus.Sorry to pop your bubble

While I'm not overly knowledgeable on either Luke's or Galactus' feats, I do know Luke's been capable of planet-wide telepathy like it's no big deal. Then again Galactus apparently blew up three star systems on his death bed. Haven't been a big follower of Marvel or the Star Wars EU in recent years. I'm looking at you, One More Day.

Darog the Badger God said Also, all dis h8 for Wolverine, a pretty cool Anti-Hero.

I don't think Logan's been an anti-hero for some time now. He's essentially all about that with great power comes great responsibility thing, even the headmaster for the Jean Grey school, I think. I'm going to go check to see if Otto is still in Peter's body now.

Pokemon: End Tower

Brace yourselves, I'm going to try posting.

How, incidentally, is Grant connected to the group? Everybody else seems to have a natural connection to at least one other person in the group (with the deliberate exception of Johann).

I presume he's naturally at least acquainted with Logan due to both being Captain of their respective Quidditch Teams by their Fifth and Sixth year, and it seems practically the entire Hogwarts crowd was involved in the Dueling Club (I may or may not be removing that from Logan's history/credentials because of the oversaturation of members), with Emma being the Captain/best duelist amongst them. There's also a possibility of Johann having heard of the various Quidditch players of Hogwarts due to his own Quidditch prowess or an international school cup, heck, maybe even a Tri-Wizard Tournament. Unless of course those were just banned outright due to Darth Vadermort's reemergence during the one held in the 1990s.

wouldn't this interfere with Dale's position as chaser in her 6th and 7th year? Or should I set her as a beater?

Dale's sheet says she was a keeper, no? though how lucky it was for her to show up right when Hufflepuff won back to back cups. She must've been the missing piece.

Though I'd prefer she stay a keeper, I won't complain if you put her at chaser, I just found it neat how Logan, Dale, Michael, and Grant occupied all Quidditch positions, with Johann no doubt becoming the second beater of the group whenever we meet up with him.

Doctor Belasco said Fuck Slytherin. Nazis.

God, why do we have to travel with one? Make sure to make him feel as ostracized as possible.

Doctor Belasco said I didn't want dark-dark, but it would be nice to have that Shakespearean feel where the audience can see they're probably going to go disastrously wrong but nobody else can see it.

Hmm....maybe I haven't read enough Shakespearean works.

Doctor Belasco said IAnd, in terms of Quidditch, I'll go with whatever works best for you, so long as Logan wasn't the captain that gave him a spot. Michael would've smelled nepotism a mile off and withdrawn.

So somewhere in-between Second and Fifth Year. Simple enough to say Third, which is the year Logan became a starter. *Thumbs up*

Doctor Belasco said IPS: I'm so glad I don't have to keep checking to spell Eghoeoeanghean's name. Logan's much easier. :P

Give another read-through of Eo-Logan's sheet, he actually told people to call him Logan because people kept butchering his actual name.

Cheers dude. I think he needs a few tweaks still; I kind of wanted him to have some darker undertones which haven't come through as strongly as I might have liked. We don't really have any manipulative or straight-up villainous characters (yet?!) but I think if we did, his weaknesses would be better exposed.Long-term, his mother probably wouldn't have survived. She was just mildly harder to find than other muggle-borns - if Vloddermor had had more time, he'd have tracked her down eventually.

Just how dark were you trying to make him? Like, I torture bugs when nobody's around dark, or wanting to learn the Dark Arts to better defend against them type of thing? I think his Grey Jedi view of Magic alone would get some awkward glances from this uber conservative society Wizardkind generally lives in that seems to have a rather generic view of "Good" Magic and "Evil" Magic.

I wouldn't say that, true, she probably didn't remove her name from the big book of Magic babies, but is there any real way to know a person is Muggle-Born outside of family trees? I'm not sure if the Ministry or whoever keeps documentation of that kind of thing, only the really racist(?)/Fascist(?) families like the Blacks and Malfoys seem to keep detailed records of family marriages, Squib births, so on, so forth.

On a slightly less important note, and I only ask this "Because Quidditch", in what year did Michael become a Chaser? I only ask because Logan could've potentially been captain at the time, and was probably at least the starting Seeker. Also now all we need is a Hufflepuff Character who played Beater and we'll have our own little Quidditch Gang, screw that Slyhterin guy, we don't like him.

I like this new not-James. All the outward appearance of just your average Hogwarts student, person in general really, but has those couple of quirks that make him stand out.

Also his mother memory-wiping herself was great! Pity not that many Muggle-Borns followed her lead.
