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:Ambitious, Charismatic, Passionate Negative Traits: Impulsive, Domineering, Temperamental Quirks and Habits: Not one to be intimidated easily, Tyr is an imposing figure in the room. He usually speaks in soft tones, forcing people to listen closely to what he is saying. When he has lost his temper, he loses this carefully controlled volume. His rage is quite volcanic, his body becomes tense and his eyes narrow to the nearest person. Unlike his temper, he usually has a tight hold on the rest of his emotions. Blankness, or slight curiosity is the most of what people tend to see of him.
Despite all this confidence, he has developed a bit of a slouch. He is quite tall, so this can be contributed to his constant ducking of wizard doorways. His eyes are cold and calculative but his smile is warm enough to melt the ice left by his gaze. He also has an impeccable skill for being on time for everything, a skill he has perfected over the years. Likes: Running, watching bad muggle horror movies, playing with dogs Dislikes: Wisards, hot weather and swimming Boggart: His father accusing Tyr of murdering him. Mirror of Erised: His pack, alive and wealthy. Patronus: a vulture
HISTORY
1993: Only 4 years old, Tyr is bitten by his own father to become a werewolf. He remembers the medics who approached him the next day with with dittany and silver, to make sure that he lived and become the very beast his father was. He didn't really understand a lot about what was going on, but he knew that it hurt but would make everyone very happy. Several of the young children are turned on the same night, and the rest of the week is spent in celebration
1996: Still quite young, Tyr is told to stay home with the Omegas while the pack heads off to Hogwarts He and his best friend pass the time by inventing new ways to sneak out but are ultimately unsuccessful. Fenrir Greyback returns half-dead, with most of their pack decimated. Tyr and his friend decided that it would be better to leave the adults to their business and go to bed. Tyr remembers clearly laying in bed and hearing the loud crying coming from the infirmary, desperately hoping it wasn't his father who was dead.
2000: Receiving his Hogwarts letter and presenting it to his father, who ripped it up. He was to stay with the pack and be homeschooled. Tyr accepted this readily, knowing that the officials won't have wanted him there since he was a werewolf anyway. He was lucky to have such a supportive pack and tried to push the idea of leaving out of his mind.
2010: Fenrir Greyback continues to terrorise the country side, however in his aging body he attacks another gang member. Some start to whisper that he is becoming weak and senile. Tyr hatches a plan to put Greyback in the site of Aurors. If he can overcome the team of trained wizards, he still deserves to be their pack leader but if not, Tyr planned to take the mantle. Unfortunately, things do not go quite according to plan and his father is killed and the Alpha who steps up is not Tyr.
2017: The new Alpha arranged for Tyr and two others to help "break out" a young werewolf girl at Hogwarts, which causes 3 deaths and two bitten. It causes a major crack down on werewolves that Tyr strongly disapproves of. The Alpha ends up stepping down after a violent argument between the two of them. Tyr prioritises the safety of the pack, but also has a deadly plan in mind to increase their numbers and gain back their rights.

Roleplay example:
Adrian ran his hand along the keys of the piano, pressing down on them softly as he refreshed himself with the weight that he’d need to play a piece. His tutor’s voice was ringing in his head as he played a simple E Major scale, and he sat up accordingly. It was a public piano, therefore it needed a little tuning and some love and care, but otherwise was quite fine. He could see the passengers racing from place to place and had found himself overwhelmed with all the rushing. So there he was, with all the time in the world, sitting down to play the piano. He was on the other side of the river from Diagon Alley but he wouldn’t be meeting his cousins for lunch until later that day.
He moved on from major scales to arpeggios, his fingers moving quickly from key to key as he did so. He ignored the curious looks, knowing that they were to be expected. He fiddled around a little longer, before finally deciding on a song, Chopin’s Minute Waltz. He launched into it, and although there was no smile on his face, there was a brightness to his eyes that betrayed how much he enjoyed playing the little piece. Playing Chopin was never an easy venture but he enjoyed how his fingers played across the piano keys.
