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!
Positive Traits: curious, bookish, good sense of humour, accepting of change if proven wrong. Negative Traits: curious, a bit of a smartass, sassy, not too great with communication, correcting people. Quirks and Habits: Celeste Tyrell is a curious girl who is sadly very oblivious towards muggles, but is very curious to know more about them. Often forgetting that the statute of secrecy is there for a reason she seeks out muggleborns to ask the most trivial questions, only to think it’s dumb not to use magic in a lot of cases. She’s not afraid to slam the facts from books or otherwise into someone’s face. Not only that but she can be quite sassy as she does so, though she tries to stay very far away from being pompous. She does try to be close with her half siblings, but it not not always easy for her. Likes: readind, exploring, correcting people if she knows she is right. Dislikes: Illiterates, people who don’t question anything, bullying against her (she might just sass you if that doesn’t work, jinx you). Boggart: Being pushed so far out from family and friends she’ll be forever alone like a hermit. Mirror of Erised: Getting the order of Merlin for a discorvery she made. Patronus: Platypus
HISTORY
We start with Celeste with a memory when she was 8 using her accidental magic on purpose to go into places where she wasn’t allowed by her dad. Which caused her to be bapped on the head for being out of line. When she was forbidden to do something or go somewhere usually there wa a good reason and from that moment on Celeste either did exactly as she was told by her father, or made very sure she did not get busted.
The second memory we visit is when Celeste gets swimming lessons and is rather sure she could do the same thing with clothes on as with her swimsuit, only to nearly drown. Having lost consciousness for a few minutes she came around completely fine. Except for that when she is clothed is will try to stay the hell away from water, except washing her hands and face. If it is raining and the rain starts to make her clothing heavy she is likely to have a bit of a panic attack.
To wrap the memories up we move on to her third year at Hogwarts having chosen muggle studies as an extra subject next to ancient runes and care of magical creatures. So that if she ever finds out that what she is taught about muggles is complete rubbish she could drop it and still have enough electives. Having heard from her upper years that Muggle studies was a waste of time she had gotten curious enough to see if she could improve on it, even though she was a pureblood. Maybe even help her father in case he ever needed help on the muggle side of work, if there was such a thing.
PLAYER
RP Alias: Galen Pronouns: He/His Hogwarts House: Hufflepuff Other Characters: @richard @rowena Roleplay example: Rowena knew she was proverbial toast the moment she had realised that she had tripped not over something, but someone. Her reputation dead, chances of being accepted zilch and in her mind absolutely dead. Taking the offered hand anyway to get up she found herself replying automatically to a cute blonde girl. ’’No, don’t be sorry, I wasn’t looking where I was going....quite literally at that.’’ Looking around when she saw the other girl do so, who was continuing on her apology. Which was in Rowena’s mind rather cute, but beside the point.
’’I don’t think people would trip over you here, I mostly come here to be out of the way from people an....no I’m not hurt. Are you hurt though? I mean I am not the lightest thing to fall on you, most likely beautiful.’’ Mentally Rowena was trying to put the mask back into place, hoping that the girl hadn’t heard or whatever. Which made her realise something else. ‘’Forgive me for being rude, well more rude than literally tripping over you. My name’s Rowena and yours? I can hardly keep calling you beautiful now can I?’’
Berating herself over perhaps being too obvious in covering it up, not really having an better option for herself though she kept trying. Probably failing to put the social mask properly into place she gave the blonde a shy smile.
