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!
It was a beautiful spring day, the stands were filling up with students, professors and guests as Hogwarts prepared itself for the championship game. There was music and decorations all over the stadium because everyone knew this was going to be THE GAME of the year. The coach brought both teams together, explaining the rules once more.
There was a low wind, the sun was shining brightly and no bad weather has been predicted.
The snitch has been released along with the bludgers.
The coach looks at both teams before throwing up the quaffle and blowing her whistle, starting the game!
The teams:
Hufflepuff:
Keeper - none (feel free to apply!) Chaser - JONAH STEVENS Chaser - GABRIEL AVERY Chaser - none (feel free to apply!) Beater - SALLY JORDAN Beater - none (feel free to apply!) Seeker - SKYLAR REID
------------------------- This game is 7 vs 7 (with npc-able positions that can still be filled so check out the claims!), every move will be allowed to counter, you will post your character doing a certain action and another play has 48 hours max to respond before staff makes a decision. Decisions are made by the roll of the dice and the outcome will be completely random.
ex.
Ryker notices the other team's beater was about to hit her seeker so she raced towards the bludger aiming it towards Viola Rosaline instead.
Now Viola has 48 hours to respond whether or not she will dodge or get hit! Once she responds the game will continue! Other players can also intervene, its a free game but in the end give people time to respond to what happens to them! We love to have this move smoothly but everyone deserves time!
The snitch and bludgers have been released, the quaffle has been thrown up in the air, let the game begin!
The final game of the year and Mavican couldn't be more thrilled. This is what she trained for, practiced every single free moment she had. Her eyes were on her teammates and a nod came from her head as the rules were explained. "I'll cover you guys as you go for the quaffle, nothing will come past me." she said with a determined tone in her voice and her eyes were on Casey, basically saying I got you. Mavican then looked at Sally, the other team's beater and held her hand out to shake hers.
"Good luck today." she said with a smile before shooting up in the air and heading for the first bludger, hitting it right at one of the hufflepuff chasers to slow them down.

It was the day. Wolfgang wasn't one to get fired up about Quidditch results on a daily basis, considering the game to just be a productive way to stay in shape, but the sight of the Quidditch cup within reach was enough to fill him with determination to win, and, for once, he shared the enthusiasm of his teammates to the fullest.
Before the game he'd met up with Isobel for a few minutes of encouragement, and in the heat of the moment he'd haphazardly promised to prove to her that he was be the best player on the field -- and he wasn't going to back away from that statement.
And today, nothing could stop him. Gripping the handle of his Nimbus 2001 with one hand, patting down his freshly cut hair with the other, he walked out into the field and nodded in approval at the weather. Perfect.
The game begun and Wolfgang, swift as always, reached for the Quaffle, immediately passing it to EMIL ZALEWSKI.
Today was the day and as Sally walked out onto the field with her team mates, she wore a bright, sunny grin because heck. yeah. This game was going to be awesome. They were going to kick arse and take names, just like they had against Slytherin. "You guys, we're going to fucking rock this. Just you wait," she said, practically bouncing on the spot as her body thrummed with excitement as she glanced up at her much taller team mates.
The Ravenclaw beater with the pretty hair wished her good luck and Sally looked over at her with a nod. "Yeah, man, you too," she said before she kicked off in the air, beater's bat swinging in her hand as her eyes darted around the pitch. Mavican got to the bludger first, sending it soaring towards Jonah and immediately, Sally was on it. "Go get that bloody quaffle, Stevens."
With that, Sally leaned forward and managed to smack the bludger away, simultaneously aiming it straight towards the person the quaffle was being passed to.... er, what's-his-face.... the Head Boy. With any luck, it'd startle the quaffle from his hands, allowing Jonah enough time to swoop in and catch it.
Mavican was pumped and she really wanted to win this. She watched the bludger head for Jonah and though she should be sorry she truly wasn't. Mavican was trying to win this. The redhead watched Jordan hit a bludger towards Emil instead and Mavican flew in to block it with her own bat. She hit it as hard as her arm would let her and straight for their seeker this time.
"Boys hurry up!" she shouted at Emil and Wolfgang before flying towards the second bludger, hitting it at the keeper.
Merlin's balls, it felt like Sally was being whipped back and forth along the field as she first intercepted the bludger from Skylar with a heartfelt, muttered, "Shit," as she redirected the wily ball towards their seeker. Just by the skin of her nose, she managed to reach the second bludger in time and this time, she sent it flying straight at the Ravenclaw's own keeper. She just hoped it'd connect.
It was a beautiful day and Jonah, having spent most of the night awake thinking about this game was pumped. The chaser had been looking forward to this game ever since he had found out they'd be playing against Ravenclaw. His sister CASEY STEVENS, was the seeker on the other team and he wanted to play against her. The male had spent sometime before the game talking to his sister, checking in because of what they both had been through recently. It was his brotherly duty to make sure she was up for the game, and she was in a good mood. At least she had Mavican.
The moment the game had started, Jonah had flew right toward the Quaffle but missed as a Ravenclaw chaser had gotten it before him and passed it toward his teammate. He started curse under his breath when he heard a bludger but was luckily saved by his beater. "Thanks Sally!"
Casey had worked her ass off to get where they were at, and the last time she was on the pitch, she had won the game for her team. This time was no different. She was in it to win it and wasn't afraid that her own brother ran the risk of getting his ass knocked off his broom by very own girlfriend. The moments before she had to kick off the ground, she gave her girlfriend a nod and wink as she mounted her broom. It was going to be a great game, she knew this. They all have trained for this moment and were going to make her friends proud. Even her brothers.
Once she was up in the air, flying around and looking around the area for that little damn ball.
The female had sat on her broom, looking around and had heard something to her left.
A bludger heading straight for her and she had turned her broom upward, heading straight up to get out of the way.
"Goddammit..." she grumbled, flying away from the bludger with ease.
Her eyes quickly scanned the sky while she mumbled under her breath.
lived like you told me how, look at me now/the whole world's bringing me down

It was the last Quidditch tournament Emil might ever play in--he loved the game, but he certainly wasn't cut out for the pros--and he bounced on the balls of his feet as he waited for the match to begin, trying to shake out the nervous energy he felt. It would be absolutely perfect if they could win today, the perfect way to end his Quidditch career, but for that, they needed to play their best. Hufflepuff had been good in their last match.
As soon as they kicked off the ground, Emil saw Wolfgang leap for the Quaffle, and he weaved through Hufflepuff's scattering Chasers to hover higher in the air, waiting for the pass. Reaching out his arm, he snatched the red ball as it flew toward him, but just as suddenly, the heavy whistle of a Bludger came closer and closer. He twisted around to the direction it seemed to be coming from, expecting to need to dodge, but then Mavican flew in from the side of the pitch, smacking it away just in time.
"Thanks," he breathed in her direction before setting off toward the goalposts, not wanting to stay in one place for long. That was a good way to get the Quaffle knocked right out of your hands. Willing his school broom to go as fast as a Firebolt for just this match, he rocketed toward the hoops, throwing the ball toward the right-hand side.
The bludger Sally had aimed at CASEY STEVENS had missed, as had the one aimed straight for the keeper and after letting out a string of swear words beneath her breath, she straightened her shoulders and went flying towards a bludger once more. Yet again, she aimed one at CASEY STEVENS and after seeing that no, the keeper was not a threat at the moment, she sent one straight at WOLFGANG KALLENBACH. There was no point in taking out Mister Head Boy as he was too close to the goals - it was up to their keeper to defend them now.
5'3". ENGLISH. COMPETITIVE. OUTSPOKEN. FIGURING OUT SEXUALITY. SINGLE.
Yes he scored! They were doing great though Mavican couldn't say as much from her fellow beater. She'd been doing most of the hard work herself as she flew towards the bludger that was aimed at Casey and smacked it away back at Jordan before turning her attention to the next, smacking it towards Stevens. The redhead turned her attention towards the chasers and just let out a sigh. "Come on guys.. let's bring it home.." she told them before flying off to prepare herself for any more bludgers.
