Introduction
You wrap your scarf around your neck, checking the watch on your wrist. "Almost time!" A woman exclaims, and you glance over at her beside you on the platform. After a few minutes you load onto the bright red Hogwarts Express with many other children, going with the flow of all the people and getting pushed into a compartment. No one else gets in with you. You take a deep breath and watch as the train begins to move slowly. A rush of excitement hits you. Finally, you are attending Hogwarts, the famous school of witchcraft and wizardry!
Time period
The time period is set in 2003, but in this roleplay Harry Potter, Hermione, Ron, Voldemort, Death Eaters, etc. do not exist. Because of that, this roleplay will have a different plot.
Where Hogwarts is located
Hogwarts is in a remote area of Scotland, and appears just to be ruins when passed by Muggles in their cars.

Members:
Mortimer Brewer - 14 - 4th - Gryfindor - Mortimer is a tall, noodly boy, somewhere approaching six feet, and will only grow as he gets older. He has blonde, wavy hair that curls at the ends and goes everywhere. Brushing does not work on it. He's tried. His eyes are an unceremonious blue, and usually downcast so he doesn't have to make eye contact with anyone. - ISTJ-T Mortimer is a very tenacious fellow, not liable to give up quickly, or easily. He's very goal-orientated, and he's the sort of guy you know will achieve his goals, through both his ambition and his bullheaded insistence at doing what he wants, when he wants. He's a very clever boy as well: he was almost put into Ravenclaw. But his bravery and ambition won out. He's never really interacted with so many kids his age before, so if he ever makes any friends, he'll be very loyal and protective towards them, if a bit clingy. He's a bit of a stickler for rules as well, but also very petty and a bit of a hypocrite. He has no problems breaking rules if it's for getting back at someone for a perceived slight. Mortimer was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and is used to getting what he wants and not have to share it. In short, he's a selfish little bugger who thinks he's better than you. He's naturally very aloof and is rather awkward when he does interact with others. He's humbled a little bit after basically being disowned by his parents, but he's still very concieted. He doesn't believe his flaws are flaws and doesn't seek to change them. - Brown Fish Owl, female, names Eulalia - Mortimer was born to a wealthy and rather important muggle family. His parents were aloof and seemed uncaring, and he mutually hated his sister, but he was happy enough by himself and his various caretakers. They were busy, doing whatever government officials do, he didn't know, and didn't really care to know. Mortimer was homeschooled, in order to get the best education possible, starting when he was five. His life was largely normal, the occasional strange happenstance, most notably the time he was pushed into the pool by his older sister. It had been his sixth birthday, and she'd grown jealous of the attention he was getting. Mortimer had barely touched the water, when he shot out of it as if from a cannon and landed safely on the deck next to her. There were a couple other instances like that, but he found perfectly logical ways to write them off. That one time with the pool always stuck in his head through. Then, during the summer he was 10, someone dressed in robes came to their home, quite unannounced. She was recruiting him, for a special and very prestigious school. She sat both Mortimer and his parents down, pulled out her wand, and summoned a bouquet of flowers from thin air. Mortimer and his parents were simultaneously confused and horrified, and the witch told them all about Hogwarts and the wizarding world. Mortimer was skeptical, but he had just seen magic performed in front of his very eyes, and couldn't deny it. He wanted to go. He looked at his mother and his mother looked at his father and said in a sotto voice that she thought Mortimer wouldn't hear: "if he stayed here, people would talk. We could lose our positions." She turned to the teacher and smiled at her, pushing Mortimer towards the teacher, "take him! It would be great for Mortimer to go learn! Have fun!" Term didn't start for another month. The atmosphere at home didn't change all that much after that. Mortimer continued to never see his parents. He continued to fight with his sister. He went with a teacher to get his school supplies. His parents didn't come along. When the start of term came, he was shoved off to Hogwards without much fuss or fanfare. - u hog - Sherk
Jordan James - 16 - 6th - Gryffindor - Jordan is quite stout and well-muscled, with a sturdy frame and a height that is not too tall but a bit on the short side. He looks quite sure of himself and quite confident with his pale yellow hair that looks relatively neat and his slightly, mischievously narrowed brown eyes that give off an impression of someone very adventurous. His casual dressing habit is often envied by others because he just fits so well into everything no matter what he wears. Most of him looks very normal and from a first impression he seems like the stereotypical jock. Most people are quite in awe of him, but really there is no reason to be even though he looks a bit intimidating and is older than a lot of students. - Jordan is not unlike his looks, sporty and adventurous. He loves to play Quidditch and is very competitive, going all in for his team and making sure they are playing at their best. Most people don't get to know him well enough to see a side of his personality that isn't all sports and fun. In a friendship, he is always the controlling one and hates to be bossed around but loves bossing others. He really struggles in his studies that take up most of his time, and his parents are very strict about that kind of things. Often, he also has a flight rather than fight response so his impression of being the aggressive or hotheaded type is wrong. He is quite cowardly but acts cool just to cover up his faults that would destroy him if uncovered. Jordan is a kind person and tries his best to fit in, but carries the weight of a fake personality everywhere he goes. - None - Jordan has one half-blood parent and a Muggle one, who tried to leave magic behind forever and shield it from him. When his acceptance letter came, they were particularly hard on him and pushed him to do his best even though he failed in nearly every subject. They pressure him in nearly everything to be perfect, but that doesn't help his struggles one bit. He is the Keeper for Quidditch. - hog - BrambleIsBack

Hufflepuff values hard work, dedication, patience, loyalty, and fair play. Its emblematic animal is the badger, and Yellow and Black are its colours. Hufflepuff corresponds to the element of earth. The Hufflepuff dormitories and common room are located somewhere in the basement, near the castle's kitchens.
Members:
Catrina (Kitty) Brown - 4th year - 14 - Slightly shorter than usual at 5'1, Catrina is a rosy-cheeked, lightly tanned girl with a stocky and compact build. She has broad shoulders and a very low centre of gravity. Her surprisingly blonde shoulder-length hair has natural brown streaks in it, and her eyebrows and eyelashes are of the same colour but a bit darker. She has almost sparkling dark brown eyes that are almost impossibly large for her face, giving her an innocent and meek look. - Catrina is the most fun-loving, crazy person you will ever meet. She is impulsive and leaps at every chance that seems to come, not thinking about any risks or possibilities of failure whatsoever. It is usually her who thinks up adventures to embark on with her friends and it is also her who plans pranks. Any person who likes a troublemaker will be friends with her, because she is full-out adventurous and a mischief-maker. Catrina, however, is not too good in terms of her studies or marks, even thought she does have enormous potential to be a great student. She usually ignores homework or loses it while talking with friends and dropping it somewhere, or just forgets to do it altogether. She is quite nice and kind, but can easily give passive-aggressive signs of her anger. All in all she is considerate, empathetic, forgetful, impulsive, mischievous, and adventurous. - A huge fluffy grey cat named Storm. - Catrina is pure-blood but doesn't exactly care, with two parents that are pure-bloods. Both parents work at a small shop in Diagon Alley and don't exactly make much money, but it's enough to make ends meeting. Catrina is used to going through hard times as she watched her sister die by getting bitten by a poisonous snake. She is still haunted by it but never mentions it, even though you can see something is wrong when she has bad dreams. - Hog - BrambleIsBack. HUFFLEPUFF
- Chaser for Quidditch
Bramble Johnson - 15 - 5th year - Bramble is an average-sized person with a skinny and frail build, standing about 5'7 at his full height. He has unruly dark brown hair that goes down to roughly a bit above his shoulders, giving him a very disorganized look. His small, almond-shaped eyes are surprisingly emerald green. Some odd scars are on his arms and neck, but he himself has no idea where they came from. - Bramble prefers to keep to himself, but can have a good conversation if needed. He keeps a close circle of very few friends and doesn't associate much with others, but it they themselves talk to him he keeps up a friendly chat well. Usually though, he is outside in his free time and interacting with nature. He loves all animals and magical creatures, studying especially hard in Care Of Magical Creatures. A lot of people feel that he is too 'quirky' to be their friends, especially because he is very disorganized, dreamy, and very disoriented. His flaw is that he can appear weak and perfect teasing material to others because of how thick-skinned and kind he is, always apologizing first and being as polite as possible, and another thing about him is that he has a painfully short attention span and can never keep one subject up too long. - Two bonded toads named Groggy and Foggy, and a very old rat named Whoosh. - Bramble grew up an orphan, with both parents mysteriously dissappearing shortly after his birth. He has two kind, adoptive muggle parents who embrace his magical abilities. - Hog - BrambleIsBack - Hufflepuff
Liltah (Lily) Scamander -12-2nd year-Hufflepuff-Lily is a tall girl with one hazel eye and one green eye, she has long brown hair with a platinum blonde streak in it. Her wand is a 11' 9" Japanese maple wood with a unicorn hair core.-She's sweet, kind, and loves all animals. She's a bit to talkative though but thankfully knows when to shut up.-She has a white ferret named Snowflake.-Her family loves all mythical creatures and takes care of them. Her dad is the Minister of Magic.-hog-🌸❤️Lana the Lycanroc❤️🌸-Hufflepuff seeker
Curtis Micawber - 11 - First - Hufflepuff - Curtis is lanky and a bit short for his age, falling below average by around half a foot. His brown hair is cut short and straight, barely needing to be combed daily. His eyes are brown and can be somewhat like those of a pet dog. They show most emotion. - Despite being placed in Hufflepuff, the sorting hat almost declared Curtis a Slytherin, which is rather rare for a Hufflepuff. That being said, he has quite a few traits of both. Starting with Hufflepuff traits, he is a hard worker, and will work for however long it takes for him to succeed. He is a people person, and has monophobia and loves being near others. Curtis can't stand not having any friends, making his first year slightly more chaotic. He is extremely clingy, so betrayal hits him pretty harshly. As for Slytherin, he also understands that he was born to be more than just a person who cares for everyone else, and he cares about his future. It isn't below him to lie or use deceit if it benefits his friends and family or him. He also has ambition, which can be both positive and negative. This ambition, combined with his dedication, could lead him to do great things, but having a friend who's a bad influence could guide him down the wrong road. - He has a rat named Pipsqueak, or simply Pip.- Curtis was a half-blood, not knowing that his mom was a witch. His dad actually never found out, and it took Curtis a long time to believe that he was a wizard. He found the sorting most terrifying of the beginning of Hogwarts. - Hog - Amberwing

Jessica Knights - 15 - 5th year -
Jessica has long dirty blonde hair that she will sometimes put in a ponytail. She has light green eyes and a slightly skinny build. Jessica stands at around 5'5 and half inches and has white skin. Sometimes you see her with glasses and other times you don't. She likes to wear a little angel necklace around her neck. - Jessica is kind and smart person. She likes to learn new things and use what she learned. She can be a bit of a know it all. Jessica often worries that people are talking about her and worries about how she looks. Jessica can be witty and sarcastic though it doesn't happen often. - Her is a barn owl named Athena. - Jessica was born and raised near the city of London. She is a pureblood but doesn't care to much about it. She loves to read and create stories of her own. - HOG - Hawkeyes258 Ravenclaw
Willow Miller - 13 1/2 - 3d - Ravenclaw - Willow looks exactly like her name, willowy and tall. The first thing you notice about her is her height, towering over you as if you were an ant. Despite this she is rather delicate and doesn't look like much of a threat, especially at a first glance. Her feathery black hair cascades slightly past her elbows by a few inches, occasionally in a loose ponytail but most often down and straggly. It frames her small, narrow, and very pale face with a few small freckles across the bridge of her nose. However, her deathly pale complexion is not the distinguishing characteristic about her appearance. It's her eyes, striking blue that looks almost electric. They are usually wide open, taking in the world around her. - Willow is a strange girl. She is often dreamy and keeps to herself, but if a person seems nice enough she is glad to be friends and will defend them until her last breath. She prefers not to be aggressive and doesn't like fighting, staying away from people she classifies as violent or intimidating. Her favourite thing to do is sketch things in the common room alone, in peace. She also has a habit of continuously entering and exiting the common room just to get in and say the riddle for fun. She is smart like the stereotypical Ravenclaw but prefers not to focus on studies too much, to the annoyance of teachers who see her potential clearly. Most people get the weird vibe from her or even the crazy person one, but she embraces being unique and doesn't care what other people think of her. - A black cat with blue eyes just like her named Aurora - Willow is a pure-blood witch, with both parents from completely pure wizarding bloodlines. However, they are not that prejudiced against Muggles and do not raise her strictly, mostly letting her loose everywhere. - hog - BrambleIsBack
Natalie Barker - 13 - Third - Ravenclaw - Standing at 5'6", Natalie is near average height and has a slim figure. She has pale skin that contrasts with the black on her school robes. She has long blond hair that falls down half of her back and bright blue eyes that convey intelligence. - Natalie is very well represented by her house. For her, the stereotype of Ravenclaws being smart is true, as proved by her grades. In fact, she takes as many classes as possible and needs a Time Turner to keep up with both the actual classes and the homework. She takes pride in her brain, and can be a bit full of herself. She does believe she's smarter than some people, and isn't afraid to use creative means to prove it. Natalie also is artistic. She let's out her creativity and feeling into singing and writing poetry. She also is compassionate to those around her, and although she isn't the person who will talk to anyone and everyone, she tries to include other people. - A cat named Smokey - Born a muggle-born, Natalie never knew anything of the wording world. She was started and afraid when strange things happened around her, but continued to be a good student. At the age of eleven, a Hogwarts professor came to speak with her family about Hogwarts. With her rather logical mind, Natalie didn't believe that she was a witch, but has now been at Hogwarts for two full years. - Hog - Amberwing

Slytherin house values ambition, cunning and resourcefulness. Its emblematic animal is the serpent, and its colours are emerald green and silver. Slytherin corresponds roughly to the element of water. The Slytherin dormitories and common room are reached through a bare stone wall in the Dungeons. The Slytherin common room lies beneath the Black Lake. Main rivals are Gryffindor.
Members:
Gracie Aldaine - 16 - 6th - Slytherin - Gracie has a short but strong build of only 5'2. Her freckled olive skin is covered with scars and bruises - half are attained from playing quidditch, the other half from picking fights with schoolmates. Her wheat colored hair is cut into a pixie cut which has the tendency to curl in the most random places. She has slightly elvish features - an upturned nose, slightly pointed ears, and a mischievous grin. Her eyes are hazel with a hint of judgement and disappointment. Gracie loves wearing skirts and dresses, mainly because she looks really badass beating up bullies in them. - What she doesn't have in height she makes up in attitude, even if she may come out as slightly loud and obnoxious. Her righteous way of thinking began when she first heard the stereotype of all Slytherins being evil. She might be violent at times but is also very affectionate - to the point of crossing some people's personal boundaries. She studies hard in order to be the best and is very ambitious overall. Being an open bisexual, she often makes bad puns and finger guns. That is usually what stays in people's minds after meeting her. - As a pet she has a black cat called Finn. Finn hates Gracie for many reason (one being the large green bow she ties around his neck) but she's in denial. - Growing up in a pureblood family, Gracie was expected to go to Hogwarts and have her talents revealed at a young age. Being an only child, a lot of pressure was put onto her having the best grades out of anyone in her class. Unfortunately, having a short attention span prevented her from achieving that. Instead she chose to focus on something else - being a Beater on the quidditch team to get rid of all that teen angst. - Hog - Hazelsprout
Caspian Youngblood - 16 - 6th year - Caspian has medium length black hair with bits of brown mixed in. He prefers to cut it short and makes the ends spiky. He has light blue eyes. He stands around 5'8 or 5'9 and has a athletic figure. His skin appears pale though it depends on the lighting - Caspian is prideful and confident young man. He tends to come off as rather snooty and looks down on those he deems inferior to him. He underestimates people and tends to rely to much on his own abilities and skills. Caspian is flirty and charming least he likes to think he is. He is the type of guy who will be your friend if it benefits himself in the end. Despite this he can be reliable and hardworking when the time is right. Caspian like to mess around with people mostly to get a reaction out of them. - Caspian has a bengal cat named Saffron - Caspian grew up being spoiled and used to having lots of money. Both of his parents are pure bloods and he is proud of it. - He is bisexual. HOG - Hawkeyes258 Slytherin
Jacqueline ( Jackie ) Leyland - 12 - 2d - Slytherin - At first glance Jackie looks very small and weak, with her short stature and gangling arms. Her grayish light brown hair that is dyed green at the ends has heavy bangs that mostly cover her eyes, and is often in messy pigtails. She doesn't look too attractive underneath all the hair, but has a sort of inexplicable charm to her with her big dark eyes that slightly shine and her multitude of freckles. There is a certain wild and feral quality to her, like there is something hidden under the cold exterior that makes up her entirety. Her attire is always very prim and proper but her Slytherin tie is usually slung around her neck almost rebelliously, as if she is trying to disrespect the house itself. - Jackie is a good friend. A very good friend. But... She gets attached easily, and by "attached" I mean very attached. Whenever this "friend" even talks with another student she is heartbroken and immediately unleashes her fiery temper, then using guilt to lure them back to her. She appears as kind and gentle but when someone becomes friends with her, she uses them in the most horrible ways and manipulates them to do whatever she wants them to. She is mostly shy at first, a favorite with her teachers because of her academic excellence. Any past friends she has had are too afraid to speak up for the reason that she'll probably stab them in the back one day, or taint their reputation. Most people agree that she is a kind and shy girl that just needs a chance to shine, but eventually her manipulative habits will grow stronger and stronger. - A small white rat with no name. - Jackie has two half-blood parents, but little is known about them. - hog - BrambleIsBack
Lani Coy – 16 – sixth – Slytherin - Black hair just reaching her shoulders and dark brown eyes. She has a slender build and tan-ish skin. With a resting face, she looks bored or like she's judging you. – Initially very awkward around people she doesn’t know, and this awkwardness tends to lead to her seeming stuck-up. She’s easily anxious, but has a surprising sense of sarcastic humor. She tries to be nice, but she can be awfully insensitive with her dismissive attitude and impatience. She’s a romantic at heart, but has a hard time trusting that she won’t get hurt. She loves having friends and people around her and is a rather touchy person, but doesn’t make friends easily due to her anxiety. She prefers reading, drawing, and studying to sports, but she does love flying and the idea of adventure (but she’s absolutely hopeless at Quidditch, so she never joined). She is very loyal to those she manages to befriend. She doesn't really know what she wants to do in the future, but she's almost obsessed with not being a failure to the point that she can get worrying and much too stressed. – Russian white cat named Isolde – She’s a half-blood raised on both Muggle and wizard culture. Her parents are rather successful, so there's a bit of pressure on her to do well in life. – hog – αυяσяα ησx
