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!
Negative Traits: sad, depressed, constantly worries about her family, daydreams sometimes
Quirks and Habits:
Charlotte's father Felix is a non purist so she is/was the same way. She is very friendly and dislikes anyone who puts down somebody because they aren't pureblood. She is the only girl with three younger brothers, so she is rather protective of them like any other older sister would be.
Likes: While she was alive Charlotte had many interests. She liked meeting new people. She also enjoyed many of her classes such as Charms, Transfiguration, and Defense Against the Dark Arts. She also liked spending quality time with her younger brothers a lot
Dislikes: werewolves (she was killed by one), being dead, bullies, spending time with her brothers (while alive)
Boggart: The werewolf that killed her.
Mirror of Erised: If she were able to look into the mirror (which I don't know if Ghosts can) Charlotte would see herself alive again surrounded by her family
Patronus: Thestral
HISTORY
2009: Charlotte begins her first year with Cousin Eloise (daughter of Fiona Avery, who is currently in azkaban). All their lives the two cousins have been rather close due to similar personalities, and they just got along really well (despite Eloise's mother having participated in the second wizarding war.) In the end though, the sorting hat chose Hufflepuff for Lottie and Slytherin for Eloise.
February 2016: Charlotte is one of three students killed in the werewolf attack at Hogwarts. She was 15 years old at the time and also appointed prefect at the beginning of the term in September. Charlotte is honored to be chosen but because of the aforementioned tragic event she never got to finish her first term as one.
May 2016: Instead of moving on Charlotte ends up a ghost and the once living Hufflepuff feels as if she has unfinished business. What exactly it is Charlotte has no clue, only that she misses her family and wants to contact them while she's still roaming the earth as a spirit. In the meantime from talk around the school/quick glimpse of someone reading the Daily Prophet Charlotte discovers her father has become the next Minister for Magic.
Louise suddenly noticed the arrival of the very same student she had spotted at the party. He had to be about two years below her by the looks of him but she had no clue what his name was. However Louise figured she might as well find out what it was right now and if he was the one that put something in the punch.
The prefect was so tired that she couldn't think straight. She couldn't even remember if Astronomy was a class she had today. She knew that class always occurred at night and she didn't know how she would be able to get through a late night class if she hadn't even slept the night before. Louise also knew she was probably going to have to get some coffee in her to see if that helped at all.
"Are you kidding me?! I don't think anyone slept last night." she replied to the younger student's question. Sure maybe noticing that someone didn't get enough sleep was an innocent enough question but the prefect had a feeling that something was up. Louise didn't know exactly how many students drank the punch, other than her roommate Lucia. She barely knew any of the other students there except for her other roommate Roma.
"I'm sorry." Louise suddenly said when she realized she might've been a little bit too hard on the younger student before she could even find out what happened with the punch. Louise could likely blame that on how tired she was. Not only that but Louise still had classes to attend and prefect duty later on in the corridors. The fifth year had a feeling this was going to be a very long day and hopefully by the time it was over she'd be able to sleep.
"I do admit I am feeling a little strange today. I don't know why that is. What's your name?" she asked. The prefect wasn't going to bother with telling the younger student her name since she was aware he had probably heard it when Professor Shepard announced the prefects.
