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.

Positive Traits: determined, independent, creative, venturesome, sarcastic, incisive, organised chaos, stylish, Negative Traits: swears like a sailor, aggressive, clumsy, petty, loud, escapist, defiant Quirks and Habits: Swearing - Avery swears A LOT to the point that her brother imposed a swear jar on her. finds swearing helps her express herself, get her point across in a more clear manner. It gets her in trouble a lot. Fashion - Avery only wears clothes that she has either made or amended herself (except her school uniform, which is really isn’t happy with) Darts - she likes to play darts; it’s a great anger release for her, especially when there’s a photo of Ariella’s face pinned to the dartboard. Rarely does a day go by when she doesn’t throw a dart around. Tongue clicking - she clicks her tongue when she’s concentrating; it almost got her banned from the school library when doing essays in her first year due to complaints

HISTORY
Her parents split in late 2007 when Avery was almost 3 and she struggled to understand why mummy wasn’t around anymore, she couldn’t grasp why mummy and daddy shouted and didn’t love each other anymore. It confused her no end, especially when daddy then went and married another woman. It took her a very long time to understand it exactly and it was part of the reason she was so determined to please her father growing up. She didn’t want him to replace her one day like he did mummy.
Avery spent her entire life up until she was 12 trying to please her father, desperate to have his total love and affection like her older sister, Ariella. He loved her, yes, but never to the extent of his first daughter. One day, whilst excitedly telling him about her school year so far, Ariella came in and that was it, she had his attention. That day a switch flipped in Avery’s mind and she no longer wanted his attention and she couldn’t loathe a person more than she learnt to loathe Ariella that day.
In a heated argument over the summer, she accidently shrunk her brother down to the size of a cockroach. She has no idea how she did it though she really wishes she did so she could do it again when he gets on her nerves. She kept him in a jar (with air holes, she wasn’t a complete monster) until their mother found the jar and released him. He eventually returned to normal size after a few hours, but she loved it.
PLAYER
RP Alias: Tori Pronouns: She/her Hogwarts House: Hufflepuff Other Characters: CHASTITY TREVINOARCHIBALD MACKENZIEDARCY ROSS Roleplay example: Lunch break meant a coffee break and god did she need it today. A quick check up appointment with a patient who two weeks ago had burnt themselves when a potion splashed back on them had turned into an hour and a half long consultation when she had learnt he hadn’t been following his after care plan. Instead of the burn sites healing, they had started bubbling and sprouting (yes, sprouting!). When will patients learn to listen to their damn healers? Chastity had tried her best to keep her cool but in the end she had snapped and gotten into an argument with the patient instead. She needed the coffee now.
There was a small park by work that had a cart inside that sold reasonably okay coffee - an extra sachet of sugar usually masked the added bitterness that came with cheap coffee. She would usually spend her lunch break with sketchbook in hand drawing those who wandered around the park but she had been running late that morning and in her haste to get to work, she had left her satchel by her bed so instead Chastity glanced around the park.
There was a woman she recognised sitting on a bench - she was on of St Mungos fully trained healers on the serious bites ward. She had met her briefly when her traineeship began but she hadn’t had much to do with her since. Evie, Eva...something like that...no, Evelyn! That was it. Evelyn. She could see the older woman grasping at her stomach and looked clearly shocked. Unwanted or unplanned pregnancy, perhaps? She looked as though she needed either a distraction or assistance. Usually Chastity would simply ignore her and carry on her way but she knew it was a good idea to be at least somewhat friendly with colleagues - she never knew when she would need a favour and it was always easier if they didn’t hate you.
“Are you okay, Evelyn?” She took the empty spot on the bench next to her.
