Yeah I mean we definitely shouldn't explain everything in excruciating detail.... but like, I feel as though things they would already know (like the generals of their shared history, for example) should be mentioned for the sake of having a canon later.

yeah, definitely! it would prob be best for one of us to put up a lil timeline on the thread we create to check if we need to.
so i'm thinking;
-so that slytherin / hufflepuff feud starts -florence maybe finds a friend of your char bullying a student from hufflepuff- maybe they're second or third years by then, or first -florence will Not stand for that and they end up rly not liking eachother bc they end up duelling -it bleeds into stuff like schoolwork and petty rivalries from things like obscure knowledge to test scores, name-calling -no real reason to be so antagonistic but they do so anyways, even after the feud dies down -prob ended up injuring eachother a few times rip -they've both stopped being so immature and petty though but the headmaster/mistress still expects it so they prob have quarters far away from eachother

Lmao yeah. I see that, like a couple of their friends getting into a fight for whatever reason and then both of them just getting really up in arms as well. Maybe Florence's friend was a Griffindor or something XD seeing as I can't see most Slytherins, and certainly not anyone my character would be closely associated with or defensive of, randomly just picking on a Hufflepuff for no reason.... but seeing as Griffindors and Slytherins have a natural animosity as it is, and Griffindors have a talent for always making themselves look right, I could see where that could very easily start a fight between a particular group of friends even though there's not a particular Hufflepuff/Slytherin problem. But yeah they should totally like have kept getting in trouble for fighting each other at school and giving each other just really weird and random curses all the time and stuff. Kind of like a vaguely malicious prank war where they hate each other and try to inconvenience the other in any way possible and give some bruises, but not like severely hurt the other.
And whenever they both get hired the Headmaster was a teacher of theirs when they went to school and they're just like... so you won't like this other person I've hired but you gotta chill tf out okay
and they're like awwwww sht this is gonna go down
and then some passive aggressiveness happens
and then they're like.... this actually isn't so bad mebeh we can be frandos

yeah, that seems like a better idea. and then they start laughing at the school bc everyone's not sure if they're enemies or lovers and they're just playing chess or something while chatting
the headmaster/mistress gets more headaches while theyre teaching than when they were students everybody has no idea whats going on

I'm gonna go with the name Elias Meinn. Elias is a pureblood and a Slytherin, but he's not from a loud or renowned pureblood family, nor was his family especially wealthy (though they aren't necessarily poor, either). Elias generally comes off as aloof, distant, and rather cold (stereotypical of a Slytherin), but this is not really his "true" nature, and was an act developed well after coming to Hogwarts as a shield against the disdain with which the other Houses generally treat Slytherins. He is more of a quiet loner, really, and this part of his personality is genuine. He is fiercely protect of his friends and those he cares about, which is part of what started the feud between himself and Florence- the usual story of a Griffindor talking bad about a Slytherin, and Elias got fed up with it and stepped in. The Griffindor (being hot-headed as they often are) didn't take it well, and things escalated, resulting in what practically became a war between their two groups of friends (which included both Florence and Elias). While over time the rest of the students involved eventually got bored, graduated, or generally moved on, Elias and Florence both stubbornly adhered to their disagreement, which by that point had become more of a personal battle of trying to one-up each other than any kind of conflict of ideals.
Physically, Elias stands about 5'9", with pale skin and some freckles, and pale blonde hair cut with an undercut, but with the longest hair coming to about his chin. He has blue-gray eyes with a ring of copper around the center, which more than a few people have found to be almost captivating. He has a narrow build, and is neither especially muscular, nor skinny, nor chubby. He's just firmly middle. He's not unattractive, but he's nothing to gawk at either. Physically, he is all-around quiet average. He keeps with him a massive snake- a hypo albino Burmese python with very pale blue eyes- which he calls Jormungandr. The snake is practically always draped around his shoulders, and if it's not, one can be sure it's lurking nearby. Elias also has a large eagle owl named Raesvelg, which usually perches in his office rather than in the owlery with the majority of Hogwarts' owls.
Lmao sorry it took me so long. I was struggling over what to mention and what to leave out. There's a lot more info on him available, but I figured any of that is not necessary for us to start and can be mentioned in the roleplay.

florence ? a muggleborn in a family of five. the youngest of three siblings, with two older sisters, one with magic as well- a gryffindor two years older than him and his oldest sister, five years older than him, a teacher without magic. comes off as an airy, soft child until provoked, showing a core of steel and well-developed intelligence. fiercely loyal to family and friends, which is how he ended up fighting elias' friend group when his sister and her friends got to fighting the slytherins. even after everyone got bored of it, his values and stubbornness kept him going- even if it was quite silly and petty, now, that he's thought of it.
while his sisters are quite tall, florence stands at a small 5'1". his hair is dyed a light silver, soft and falling in little curls to a few inches above his shoulders. his eyes are a warm hazel, complimenting his slightly darkened skin. some don't recognize that he's an adult- he can certainly hex like one, though, even if he looks like a child. he owns one pet- a little owl that he's named athena that stays in his rooms. many think he has a second pet- but in reality it's his animagus form, a sleek white cat. overall, nobody would see him as a threat or anything other than he appears- a little muggleborn with a penchant for transfiguration and divination. elias and the headmaster/mistress know otherwise, however.
ahh im still away from home and unsure of his last name but here he is

Nice! For the roleplay, will you prefer a thread, or pm? I'm fine with either, the ONLY issue would potentially be that you can't edit one, but that's a small problem.
