With the capture of Verandi Farley and several high-ranking Trossach members, the British wizarding world has finally caught a break. The rate of rogue werewolf attacks have started dropping at a steady rate and, hopefully, things will stay that way. The Ministry is starting to loosen some restrictions, like not arresting werewolves standing on the street for loitering, however there’s still an obvious power imbalance between wizardfolk and werewolves.
The Cotswolds pack are continuing to advocate for the rights of werewolves and petitioning to change the legislation that has been set in motion by the current Minister for Magic, whilst the remaining Trossachs members are trying to stay out of the spotlight and keep a low profile… for now.
Whilst the British wizarding world seems to have calmed down, the same cannot be said for over in Northern Europe where a rebellion of magical creatures has risen. The state of things has gotten so bad that the European Ministry has enacted protocols to protect those under eighteen whilst their adult witches and wizards fight to keep control of their countries.
Students from Durmstrang have been sent to Hogwarts to keep them safe and those not old enough to attend school have been sent to live with relatives or designated British Ministry officials outside of Europe for the time being.
Will the low rates of werewolf attacks in Britain continue? How long will Durmstrang students stay at Hogwarts? Will the creatures usurp the wizardfolk in Northern Europe? Only time will tell.
SEPTEMBER 2019 It's been a very long, eventful summer in the wizarding world. A baby was stolen, several high ranking Trossach members were imprisoned, and werewolf attacks have drastically dropped as a result. What will happen now school has returned?
MAY 2019 An attempt to capture the beta of the Trossachs has been launched. Were the Aurors successful in their mission? Go read more here!

HISTORY
• First night at Hogwarts - bonding with her new friends in the dorms and Guessing Bertie Botts flavors. Remembering an innocent time when she was absolutely carefree is something loves to look back on.
• Becoming a Healer - She loved learning her profession more than anything, and the first time she helped saved a child was the day that truly made her love her career.
• Becoming a Werewolf - It... Ruined her life. She tries her best to take lemons and make lemonade, but it damn near destroyed her when Minister Avery took over: it took her career, put a burden on her family... It's brought her misery despite her best efforts to keep life from falling apart since she was nineteen.
PLAYER
RP Alias: kat Pronouns: she/her Hogwarts House: slytherin Other Characters:ROSALIA CAPONEELENA COLDWATER Roleplay example: Crack. Crack. Crack. The young woman hit the punching bag as she tried to work off the aggression, but mostly she just wanted to learn to hit faster. When her father's men had drug her off as she tried to fight back to stop her father from killing her 'Uncle' Giovanni. She had fought hard, and with a want she felt sound-- but in a physical fight? Maybe she was scrappy but she wasn't nearly strong enough or ready to fight off those men from dragging her into her room as she witnessed her father bring the life to his throat.
She was working up a sweat, hitting harder and faster and yet it still didn't feel good enough. She was hitting a bag and felt like she was on fire, yet she hit a peak. She sighed, trying to actually catch her breathe as she put her hands on her knees. She hadn't drank in a month, no cigarettes (she hadn't hit them hard before but now she was certainly feeling the lack of firewhiskey).
She heard the sound of someone coming in as she took a drink of water, nearly choking when she saw who it was. Felix? What was with the universe just... tossing them in together? She watched him a moment, a small smile actually coming to her face. She went back to drinking the water trying not to let the pounding in her chest distract her, partly because she'd worked out past her brink and... The other because she was seeing him.
"I can head out if you need this room, " She remarked calmly. " I'm just uhm... Working out, " She remarked, looking him over a moment as she stood straight. Her bright eyes looked over to his as she stopped a moment, " Felix... Im... Really sorry, " She remarked, trying to give him space, " I can't begin to say I'm sorry properly. I-- just couldn't have you get hurt. I said i'd protect you, and as it turns out, I can't protect... Anyone," She admitted calmly. It was a lot to lay out, but she felt after her talk with Jun that fighting the boy she loved was only making them both miserable. She certainly didn't expect for any change, but she at least needed to get most of it off her chest...
Well, minus admitting she loved him, obviously. "I should... Uhm... " She gestured awkwardly to the door, figuring he probably wanted a bit of space.
