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?

HISTORY
We find Aurora when she was still very little not having been able to be raised by her own parents she had been in an orphanage for as long as she knew. What she did know was that she had been loved by her birth parents, but they hadn’t been able to take care of her. While she was in the orphanage she was shunned by most kids as weird things tended to happen with her around, not knowing it was magic she kept to herself. Which led to very poor development of her voice and speech. Finally a magical couple came upon her and took her in. They were very patient and taught her almost all she knows. Including singing, which she made her job. The Baker family let her keep her own last name, but if she ever wanted she would be gladly given theirs.
Aurora became the age to go to Hogwarts and get her own wand, which she had almost custom made in America. Not because it was needed so badly, but because she had been travelling Arizona with her adoptive parents. While she was there she had met a thunderbird as she had lost track of her parents. Only to be brought back by the bird when the creature heard the worried calls. When setting her down the creature lost a feather and flew off. Not getting the big deal her parents were making out of it she picked up the feather and kept it close since.
Finally we have the night of her first concert, in the muggle world for that matter as they seemed to be a bit more open to all sorts of music. That and lyrics were easier to get as the magical seemed to only want to hear about magic, while muggles didn’t mind lyrics much, as long as you stayed within your chosen genre of music. To her it was more magical than a lot of other things, but it became her patronus memory ever since seeing the faces of her parents that night.

RP Alias: Galen Pronouns: He/his Hogwarts House: Hufflepuff Other Characters: @richard @rowena @jonathan @lucy @celeste Roleplay example: Celeste was slowly getting a bit aggravated, it might have been the irritation at what had happened, it might have been the overly cute way that Viola always could be, it might have been a lot of things, but slowly she was starting to think that she might have a thing for the blonde. Hufflepuffs did have great souls, which is why she was more often than not hanging out with them rather than Ravenclaw. That and they had quite a few muggleborns who knew so much more of the muggle world, which fascinated Celeste more than she’d tell most people. ’’No that’d be bad Viola. Voldy is dead and if he knows what’s smart he stays that way.’’
She had played by the rules of what she knew and that had been logic, sass and class, hell she’d even shown her ass. Even if it sounded a bit crass. Her plans for vengeance would likely never come to fruition, but her thoughts went back to what she had thought before and wondered why she only now had thought of that. Probably because her hormones were coming in full, or perhaps because she had spent years trying to be the perfect daughter. Well appear as the perfect daughter, her entire family knew she wasn’t. However trying to stay classy about it was harder than it seemed.
’’Well Viola, I would have to say that even giving the poses in my underwear that’s apparently just the colour for me would have been enough of a hint… Or the blush I get when you manage to catch me off guard with a compliment like about my eyes… No skin off your nose indeed.’’ Wiping the blue paint from Viola’s nose with her right handed index finger she slid her left hand behind Viola’s neck. ’’Just paint darling…oh well screw being classy for right now..’’ With that she kissed Viola full on the lips, more or less her thoughts forgotten, just hoping everything would be okay and she hadn’t just ruined a friendship of four years.
