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!
Quirks and Habits:gives people nicknames - Gustav is very bad at remembering the names of people he doesn’t care for, hence the nicknames. But they’re not the only people that get nicknames, he would often call his friends a unique nickname or something that would fit their personality.
neat freak - What some people would know, Gus is a neat freak when it comes to keeping his belongings clean and everything in a certain place. If something of his is touched or moved in any way; he’d bitch and complain about it. Perhaps it’s OCD.
snobby - Growing up in a rich family had caused Gus to be a snobby little asshat. He believes he’s better than any of his cousins (the ones that attend Hogwarts). He would often hold it over the poor families’ heads, even flaunt his money around.
overachiever - Gus is a quick learner and enjoys learning new things. The male is well prepared in about four different languages due to his family background and his mother teaching him and his sisters at a young age.
Likes: dark arts - his mother’s side of the family - kittens - learning new things - girls - reading
Dislikes: crowds - his sisters - whiny clingy girls - being told no - his cousins (fellow Faulkner’s) - Hogwarts students
Boggart: his family telling him they’re sending him off to some other school
Mirror of Erised: helping his maternal grandfather with their business
Patronus: crow
history
Being the Heir to The Family Business: Gustav Faulkner is the middle son of Gavin, a Scottish man and Sigrid, a pureblood woman from a wealthy family. Being born in Sweden, Gus and his sisters were to be enrolled in Durmstrang Institute - the very school his mother and her parents had attended for many years. Being the only son and the only grandson of Sigrid’s parents, he was to be the heir of the family business when he was of age. This was something he had been looking forward too and would often hold it above his sisters.
Being the middle child is awful Gustav is quite clearly a victim of the middle child syndrome. Also known as my sisters suck and don’t get out of my face. Gustav’s sisters tend to kidnap him whenever he is busy and dress him up or try to put makeup on his face. Sometimes he wins the battle and makes a perfect escape, sometimes he doesn’t and plots their deaths in brooding silence.
Finding out about his grandfather’s illness During the summer of 2019, Gustav had learned that his maternal grandfather was dying due to an illness, destroying him. You see, the man and Gus were close because they worked together (the grandfather training him in the business from a young age). This had changed Gus’ attitude toward the world, keeping his friends at arms lengths because he doesn’t want them to know what was happening at home.

All was well until she had found the blonde she had started to develop feelings for dead from alcohol poisoning and it was then she had believed that she was cursed. Surrounded by death for most of her life, she had started to show her true feelings about all of the crap she had gone through in life. From losing her parents to losing two girlfriends in less of a year of each other, she figured she was done with life. Her grandparents couldn’t help her, so they had arranged for her to stay with her cousin who was like a big brother to her. To help her through the loss and that’s where she was at, the place she was sharing with her cousin who was currently at work doing God knows what. The blonde never understood his career and didn’t care much.
Sitting in her bedroom at her desk, she was working on a comic for her two little brothers while helping herself to her cousin’s alcohol. It was early in the day some would say, but she wasn’t working at the moment and was looking even though she didn’t have to find a job right away. Her grandparents told her that they had a stable income, but she wanted to do something with her life. Did she have something to live for? No. But she wasn’t planning on dying, or so she hoped.
Letting out a sigh, Shay had placed her pencil down and grabbed the glass that had the Firewhisky in it, taking a large gulp of the harsh alcohol. The moment she had placed the glass down, a kitten had jumped right into her lap and almost made her knock it over. ”MISCHIEF!” she had squealed, but managed to save her comic before any alcohol spilled on it. All the kitten did was mew up at her owner, causing Shay to melt a bit. ”I can’t be mad at you if you give me that look, boy. Cheater. Come on, let’s go,” she stated and picked up the kitten who clung onto her sweater as Shay carried the kitten out of her bedroom and down to the kitchen. There were a few mews from the kitten as she jumped out of Shay’s arms and ran off as a few knocks could be heard on the door.
Running her hand through her blonde locks, Shay walked toward it, peeking out the window and frowned as she saw the redhead who looked liked she was in some type of distress. Unlocking the door, she opened it and looked at her best friend. ”Mavican, what’s going on? Thought you’d be with Casey,” she said as she stepped aside to let her friend inside.
