History

A long time ago... in a galaxy far, far away.

An only child for a year and a few months, Colby was SPOILED. At a very young age, he was introduced to Star Wars, and of course, LOVED it. To this day, Colby's favorite thing is quoting lines and making Star Wars references, while getting odd looks from others.

The Muggle way of life was a big part of his childhood. Television, obviously, Star Wars, Pokemon, Sailor Moon, Pinky and the Brain. All old shows, but ALL good shows. So says Colby.

When his brother was born, Colby was excited. He loved Ian a lot, hugged him all the time and watched Star Wars with him, he even let him play with his Star Wars action figures. That was- until the day Ian bit Darth Vader's head off. From then on, it was war.

Of course he still loves his brother, although he would have to be FORCED to admit it by the use of a Jedi Mind Trick. He also feels that it is his job to take care of his other siblings, being the oldest and all.

Personality
Easily embarrassed: Mostly by his brother. The prospect of ruining a first impression kills his nerves. Being homeschooled all this time, his obsessive love of something that many wizard students have never heard of, and his bouts with asthma all add up to his little fits. But you needn't worry, they don't last long, and they're always good for a laugh.

A little bit geeky: In case you haven't noticed, Colby LOVES Star Wars. L-O-V-E. There is nothing better in the world. When he's not blathering on about it, watching it- or reading it, Colby likes to practice guitar, which he learned how to play in summer camp, and often plays to impress the girl next door, who he has a crush on.

The amazing Mr. Disappear: In short, whenever his sister Morgan and her friends are around, Colby makes himself scarce. For some reason- they all have little crushes on him. And of course, it makes his voice squeak.

A case of green thumb: Well, not technically. More, in Colby's case, his green thumb is actually a whole hand. As the son of an accomplished chef, Colby's got a little bit of natural talent when it comes to baking. Or, as he would say. he's got "mad skills." His current favorite? Strawberry Crepes with Honey Sauce.

Just a tad OCD: Oh no you DIIII'NT drop that on my floor and walk away! Colby's a neat freak- a compulsive cleaner and organizer, you name it- he's cleaned it somehow.

People pleaser: Probably his worst attribute, so he says. Most of the time- he can be led astray by the suggestions of others. He just wants the people around him to be HAPPY. Not, however, when it comes to his brother. You give Ian an inch, and he takes a MILE.

More to be added as character development continues.

Current
Colby and Ian were both accepted to Hogwarts, but, their parents wanted to keep them home, until they both got tired of the whining, and agreed to send them to the school.

Colby was sorted into Slytherin House, and is very excited to teach pretty girls about Star Wars. It's just too bad that he inherited his father's tendency to stutter when nervous, coupled with asthma attacks. Watch out ladies.

Pets
A curious, and perhaps a little bit dumb kitten named Wicket. If you know anything about Star Wars- WHICH YOU SHOULD- he looks an awful lot like Wicket the Ewok. Hence the namesake.

Octavia Isabella Miriam McKenna

SS extension; TDS

Full Name: Octavia Isabella Miriam McKenna

Nicknames: Tavie. NEVER call her Octavia
Age: 22
Date of Birth: November 14th, 2051
Education: Homeschooled.
Wand: Ivy, Basilisk skin, 8 inches
Height: 5'9
Build: Tall, slim, in many ways the exact copy of her twin Evolette
Hair: long, shiny blonde that reaches the middle of her back. She usually keeps it straight, and hardly does more than brush it.
Eyes: Keen, curious blue color, her emotions never cross them, so if you want to know what she is thinking, don't bother looking.
General appearance: At first glance, Tavie looks to be a tall, pretty blonde girl, with a rather frightening scowl on her face. It is always present.


Personality: Octavia is possibly THE McKenna that you should avoid, out of all of them. She's rude, abrasive and if you DARE talk to her before she talks to you, she very well might scratch your eyes out. Tavie is very family oriented. Regardless of how corrupt a family she has, she will defend them to the end. Who can you trust, if you can't trust your family? More often than not, Tavie prefers to be alone, she swims alone, eats alone, reads alone and studies alone.

History: Born exactly ten minutes before her sister Evolette, Tavie has always thought of herself as Evolette's older sister, and not her twin. She knows everything that there is to know about her sister, and she is, essentially, her best friend. She has no time for dating, nor does she care for the company of males, or females at all. Her first kiss was a boy named Phillip, at one of her father's business events, she punched him in the eye and he ran, crying and bleeding, back to his mother. However, boys do not seem to get the memo, and she's punched out quite a few more over the years.

Along with her sister, Tavie was also sexually abused by her grandfather from a very young age. Most of it- she has blocked out, preferring to cut herself off from most people and not think about it at all. She believes, had she not endured that, she would have turned out much differently, and she's bitter about it. Tavie does not let people in, and she fears that she just doesn't know how, even though, she will never admit it.

Family: Tavie comes from a fairly large family, her parents, Nicholas and Morgan married very young, as sort of a love match by their parents. To this day, they have many marriage problems. Nicholas is mostly always away on business trips and Morgan spends her days as a flamboyant socialite, flitting from one glamorous party to another.

She has three older brothers: Dominik, Alexander, and Preston, a twin sister: Evolette, and a younger sister: Greenlee. The McKenna’s live in a rather large, wealthy manor, and also own a summer house in the country, as well as houses in France and Italy.

Extra: Tavie is allergic to strawberries, and certain types of ink. She is nearly deaf in one ear, which she uses to her advantage quite often. She keeps a list of books that she wants to read before she dies, and it is currently 500 titles long.

Pets: None. Ever. Tavie is not the nurturing type.

Current: Despite everyone's prediction that she would end up a bitter old maid- Tavie did meet a man, Haneul Oh, in the summer of 2069, and a mere week later- she got pregnant. The twins (Grayer and Kenzie) were born in February of 2070.

Lysander Walsh

Lysander Walsh
Solways Academy Student
Performing Arts

Nicknames/Aliases: Sander
Age: 22
Gender: Male

Hair Color: dirty blond, he wears it until it grows unbearably long, and then crops it short.
Eye Color: blue green, depending on what color he wears determines the dominate color of his eyes.
Height: 6'2
Weight: 170 lbs
General Appearance:

Picture: [Not required but highly encouraged. No bigger than 400x600]

Personality: Usually quiet, Lysander does not acknowledge anyone he does not find worthy, therefore, if he doesn't answer you, he doesn't have a hearing problem, he's just ignoring you. Dynamic and personable, when he chooses to be, the boy is mostly a loner. Even though he has many friends, and is usually surrounded by them, most of the time, he's off in his own world. Lysander makes friends especially with the girls, rather easily, probably because he is so easy going. Most of the time, that is. Other times, he can be rather snobby, and look down at you if you do not measure up to his standards.

History: In high school, Lysander was popular without meaning, or trying to be. He attended private prep schools like most of Solway's students did, and tended to focus more on his school work and music. Recently, Lysander's girlfriend of four years broke up with him, because she was having an affair with her English Lit professor. He's still not over her, which makes dating a highly unwanted situation at the moment. At least until he feels he's found the right girl.

Family: Father- Hilton Walsh; owns a record label.
Lydia Walsh; dancer
Olivia Walsh; younger sister

Pets: a couple of dogs. Breed? Not important right now.
Allergies: Cotton, blueberries, green tea

Likes: sleeping, music, sleeping, dating
Dislikes: loud noises, peanut butter, coffee, too many pillows

Anything else?: Lysander could, possibly, perhaps, be considered as a hopeless romantic. He likes to think that maybe there's someone for everyone, and maybe he will find someone like that.

An actress by trade, you never know what to expect from her, and she has often been told that she has multiple personality syndrome, which she ADAMANTLY denies.

History: Upon graduating from Julliard, Elsie was immediately offered a position (Performing Arts) at Solways Academy, which she very obviously accepted. She is the youngest professor on staff, and likes to think of herself as the most popular among the students, especially the boys.

Solway's Academy Student
Plastic Arts.

Nicknames/Aliases: Linlee
Age: 21
Gender: Female
Hair Color: Black, long and curly, it reaches all the way down to her backside, and she has not cut it in 10 years, although she visits the salon every three weeks to keep it looking fabulous.
Eye Color: Brown, rather small, but highly expressive, surrounded by long, thick black lashes that she enjoys batting, and often does to get her way.
Height: 5'4
Weight: 105 lbs
General Appearance: Aaliyah is naturally small, or petite as some would say. She had a very high metabolism, and she can eat whatever she wants, and always does, yet her weight is maintained. Her dancing career has built her muscles, and her body is very lean. Oftentimes, Aaliyah makes up for her lack of height by wearing very tall shoes, which she is very practiced in wearing now, and can even run in, if she ever had a reason to run. Only wearing designer labels, Aaliyah's large closet is emptied out one a month, as she never wears the same thing twice. Ever.
Personality: Even though she is spoiled, and proud and rich, Aaliyah can also be sweet, when she feels like it. Often, and only to her close friends, she is referred to as the "sweetheart" Aaliyah likes boys. Most of her time spent, is spent with boys, although the other girls of the Acer Crew are her close friends, she values the boys a little bit more. SHHH. Don't tell. On the outside, she appears calm, collected, and quiet, and most of the time she is, as long as she is getting her way. But should you dare contradict her, tell her no, or stand in her way, watch out for the claws, cause then, they will come.
History: Without her mother, and her father always away on business, Aaliyah was raised by maids and bodyguards. She does not think of these people as the "help" but as her family. Before her mother died, Liling, who was a model/actress herself, secured Aaliyah an agent, and quickly got her into working in modeling, and commercials. She continued with her modeling even after her mother died, often taking her loving nurse, Meili with her. Aaliyah attended high class private schools all through her elementary and high school years, and she was involved in many afterschool activities, choosing to keep herself busy, and with her friends, instead of at home alone. Along with her modeling, Aaliyah also started dancing, her favorite was ballet and ballroom. In the 9th grade, Aaliyah found her love of painting, and from there, her art obsession evolved exponentially.
Family: Quan Lei, Aaliyah's father is 54 years old. He met her mother, Liling, 20 years ago at a launch party for his first restaurant, and two weeks later, found out that she was pregnant. Head over heels in love, the young couple married 2 months later, in a traditional wedding in Hong Kong. Three years after Aaliyah was born, the family moved to the United States, taking up residence in New York. Quan's business boomed quickly, and still today, he owns over 70 working, high business restaurants (most of which are Chinese food restaurants) in over 8 different states. At the age of five, Aaliyah's mother died in a tragic airplane crash. When her father IS home, all of his time is devoted to doting on his daughter, there is nothing that he would not do, say, or buy for his little princess.
Pets: At home, Aaliyah has a small zoo. Giraffes, elephants, monkeys and horses. She also has a rather spoiled cat named Jia.
Allergies: Red dye, dust, cheap shoes.
Likes: Coffee, dayplanners, shoes, diamonds. rap music, dancing, boys, boys with good jobs, boys with pretty eyes, vacationing, steamed apples, ice cream and
Dislikes: Dogs, poor people. being told what to do/think, pain, being late and napping.
Anything else?: Never forget her birthday, EVER. Aaliyah likes getting presents, and she will NEVER forgive your impudence.

Baston Brandywine

Hogwarts Night Class Character

2053 - Present

Nickname/Alias: None as of yet

Age: 16

DOB: April 10th, 2053

Height: 6’1”

Weight: 129 lbs

Hair Color: Brown

Eye Color: Green

Other Defining Features: Has a scar on his neck when Boule threw a piece of torn metal from their Father’s beat up old Ford at him. He insists Boule didn’t mean it. Boule insists his aim was off. He missed the jugular by 2 centimeters.

Personality: Outgoing, talkative, generally nice, active, sporty, he’s an all around boy next door kind of Hufflepuff for the exception that—he has a psychotic and an asthma prone sibling. Although he loves his brothers dearly, as if only to be expected, he’d rather wish they weren’t in the same house not to mention the same year. Escaping them, however, is inevitable and Baston isn’t one to sulk or worry too much. He’s an avid Quidditch player (and Captain; Chaser) who likes to run laps around the grounds all the time; topless if at all possible.

Likes: Quidditch, Girls, Hot Chocolate with mini marshmallows, Quidditch, Cinnamon, Quidditch, Girls, Fudge, Quidditch…

Dislikes: Boulevard, self-inking quills, Boulevard, the color blue, Boulevard, black nail polish, Boulevard, Christmas, Boulevard.

Allergies: N/A

Pets: N/A

History (for the three durr): American Muggles Mr. and Mrs. Brandywine had trouble conceiving children for three years. Finally after saving up enough money for the fertility treatment, they visited the doctor’s office in hopes of being parents. What they didn’t expect were three of the four eggs implanted in her uterus to have fertilized. It was this way that the triplets began inside their Mother’s womb. Rumor has it that even since then Boulevard was the smartest of the three (but the smallest) often kicking his siblings and trying to sneak underneath their Mother’s ribs causing her a lot of discomfort. The family lived in New Jersey, when Mr. Brandywine moved to England to live with his sick Mother. Mrs. Brandywine and the children stayed behind with plans to moving to England once the children were a bit older.

It was in their 11th birthday at a Chuck E Cheese, when Boulevard created a multi-colored giant viper made from the balls at the ball pit to terrorize Barron (who immediately began to hover and suffer from an asthma attack while Baston clung to his ankle) that Mr. and Mrs. Brandywine realized there was something wrong with their three sons.

It was Mrs. Brandywine’s clue to move the boys to England. No sooner had they hopped off the plane that they were bombarded by irate owls and letters from Hogwarts. Left without a choice (and dumbfounded), Mr. and Mrs. Brandywine allowed their sons to attend Hogwarts as Boulevard just wouldn’t shut up about it. Barron was the first one sorted. Having been placed in Hufflepuff, his oldest brother, Baston, wished for the same. Feeling that his brother’s were abandoning him, Boulevard deemed it unacceptable and demanded/ordered the hat put him with his brothers.

And the rest, my friends, is a complicated mess of explosions, conspiracy theories, and hazardous incantations.

 Georgiana Louise Fairchild -Kovac

DOB: March 11th, 2045

POB: Edinburgh, Scotland

Heritage: Pureblood

Age: 24

Status: Married

Wand: Georgiana (or Georgie, as most people call her) is rather ... um, absentminded? Needless to say, such things as the core of her wand and things of the like, are unknown to her.

Former House: Hufflepuff

{ Physical Description }

Hair Colour: Long, strawberry blonde hair that almost reaches her waist

Eyes: Large Silvery blue that often have a child-like expression on them

Height: Five feet, nine inches tall

Weight: Georgiana can't be bothered to know what her weight is. It's irrelevant?

Build/general appearance: Tall, willowy and perfectly coordinated, Georgiana is always dressed in the latest fashions and will always be found with a wide smile on her face that matches nicely the way her silvery blue orbs twinkle when she's laughing and smiling - which is all the time.

{ Personality }

Like the innocent young woman she can be, Georgiana never thinks the worst of people and is always making up excuses as in to WHY the people around tend to take advantage of her -which happens quite often, to her husband's distaste. Given her slightly insecure nature (she's perfectly aware that her brains are not exactly her best assets), she always lets herself get suckered into all kinds of situations, no matter how embarrassing and improper they are (which explains why she's usually the topic of conversation during social events) and allows other people (i.e husband, brothers and sister in law, and her little son, even) to boss her around and do whatever they want with her.

{ History }

Daughter of the owner of Obscurus books (wizarding publishing company), Emmanuel Fairchild, and Beatrice Skeffington, a Scottish Socialite, Georgiana is the oldest of the five Fairchild sisters, and thus (since their parents only had one son, and he passed away just a couple of hours after having born) the rightful heiress of the family business.

Having had a perfectly happy childhood, surrounded by maids, books (that she did not read, of course), and all kinds of luxuries, is easy to figure out that Georgiana never had to move a finger to get what she wanted, and thus became rather spoiled, although not annoyingly so; she was always on the sweet, kind, charming and always excited for anything, side.

Once receiving her acceptance letter for Hogwarts, as was expected, Georgiana had to wait ten minutes for the sorting hat to place her, given the fact that she was never particularly smart, guile, brave or hard worker. However, she was loyal and so, after a lot of waiting, the sorting hat placed her in the house of Helga Hufflepuff, in which she tended to stood out from the rest of the students in the social department; it turned out that due to her easy going nature, Georgiana was popular. The girl every girl both hated and loved and the girl every boy wanted. And, if truth was being told, just a few nice words and compliments, they got her - the males, of course.

Needless to say, Georgie had as many boyfriends as the stars in the sky during the night.

Having barely approved her subjects (to this day her younger sister, Adelle, wonders how was it possible that she was never pulled back a year) Georgiana finished her magical education and soon joined her father at his job. Sadly, this didn't last long for it didn't take long for Mr. Fairchild to realize that Georgiana was not ready (and would most likely never will be) to take over his place in the family business. Having agreed with his wife that the best thing Georgiana could hope for was to marry well, Mrs Fairchild wasted not time on taking the oldest of her daughters to all kinds of parties, social events and introduce her to eligible bachelors in hopes that one of them would fall for her (thanks to her beauty) and marry her.

That was, of course, when he met Paul Kovac.

After meeting in a found raising event thanks to Paul's brother, Branimir Kovac (Georgiana dated him for a couple of weeks during her sixth year), Paul and Georgiana quickly started going out. In Georgiana's mind, Paul was the love of her life; in Paul's, however, this was just another girl that he could 'deflower.' Unfortunately for him, Georgiana's ship had sailed a long time ago (his own brother, Branimir, was responsible for this, of course) and even most unfortunate was that one night during her birthday, after having a few drinks, Paul and Georgiana were not careful enough, and, well . . . Georgiana ended up pregnant at the young age of twenty one.

Her parents, of course, were instantly happy, of course, because they were fully aware that this meant marriage, and Paul was all they wanted for their daughter: Tall, dark, handsome and rich. The wedding happened a couple of weeks later, after having come to an arrangement with Paul's family, and although the reasons WHY Georgiana ended up marrying Paul were not the ones her parents had hoped for, they were alright with it.

The young couple's bliss lasted until the day Nathaniel Alexander Goran Kovac turned one year old, and after that, Paul immersed himself in his work and extra curricular activities, and Georgiana busied herself with attending cocktail parties, shopping and taking care (you could call it spoil, too) of her son. And strangely enough, Georgiana is happy, because even though it is no secret (and when I say NO secret, it means that everyone knows) that her husband is nor particularly faithful to her, she got all the things she wanted: a family of her own.

Extra: Georgiana, of course, makes up excuses for her husband's unfaithfulness.

Likes: Shopping, gardening, kissing, talking, laughing, chocolate pie and spoiling her son

Dislikes: ... Nothing, really? Georgiana is pretty much fine with everything.
