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!

RICHARDLINWOOD
36 / GAY / PUREBLOOD
About: Former mercenary, right palm made of wood, does not enjoy being near dragons. Trainee auror. Prefers to stay out of politics. Won't admit it, but werewolf sympathizer.
Friends:Richard isn't exactly the friendly type, but he does enjoy a good dueling match. Become his sparring partner? Need someone to mentor your character?
Enemies:Richard really dislikes people who like to stick their nose in to things that don't concern them. He will be especially hostile towards anyone trying to pry into his past.
Lovers:He's gay and has had only one very abusive relationship in his life, so he isn't very open to a relationship, but if someone takes their time...Who knows?
About: A walking rumor-mill. Trades in secrets and gossip. Would love to see your character ruined... Or hook up in the nearest broom closet. Maybe both.
Friends: Wolfgang is too manipulative to have friends, but he'd definitely have his circle of backstabbing gossipy bastards from the highest layers of society.
Enemies: Goodie-twoshoes make Wolfgang's head hurt. He doesn't believe in altruism. If you can be manipulated, you will be manipulated. But, not before he waltzes around you with a smile and words as sweet as honey.
Lovers: His endgame is ISOBEL LINWOOD , but he'll mess around with just about anyone at least his age, especially if he's drunk or looking to get something out of you.
About: Born to Scottish and Russian parents, spent most of his life in Russia, very attached to his uncle... who is a werewolf. Came to Hogsmeade to spread pro-werewolf opinions. Bought the Hog's Head Inn and turned it into a nice hangout.
Friends:He doesn't have any friends in Scotland, all of his were left in Russia. He really wants friends though! He would make a kind and devoted friend who you can run to even in the middle of the night.
Enemies: Anti-werewolf propoganda spewers or anyone, who comes to the Hog's Head for illegal things, thus endangering the students. Askold doesn't like violence, but if necessary, he will fight.
Lovers: He's dabbled with all kinds of people during school, but he hasn't quite figured this part of him out. He would prefer to have a nice long-term relationship, perhaps even a family, and the idea of flings and one night stand's makes him uncomfortable. He wouldn't pursue anyone who's not more than 5 years younger than him (22 and up).
Hey LEO SORREL! I'm here to throw my DADA Professor JACK O'CONNOR at you. They would have been about a year apart in school and tbh during that time, I'm not sure if Jack would have liked him. In fact, pretty sure he would have disliked him a ton. Being apart of the auror department currently, Richard has probably had to deal with Jack sending countless letters since 2016, trying to come up with solutions to get werewolf students back into Hogwarts. I don't know how Richard would respond to the constant pestering but it comes from a very sincere place.
Hey BREE! I'm almost certain that Richard does not remember Jack, perhaps only as name he heard somewhere, for some reason, as he kept close with his housemates (I also realize that Richard's profile clashes with the canon a whole lot, but that can always be glazed over). He'd certainly be annoyed with the amount of letters he'd have to go through, but deep down he agreees with Jack that werewolf students shouldn't be blamed for the actions of others. He does hate picking sides, so initially he'd keep parroting the Ministry's stance on the subject, possibly even going as far as trying to intimidate Jack to let it be. This confrontation could provide a moment where Jack could challenge Richard to stop hiding behind the law and speak his mind. It would take a lot to make Richard get involved in any projects to help werewolf students, because he has to make sure his nieces are safe (currently NPC's, Kasia will make them sometime), but Jack sounds stubborn enough.
For Richard I have @graham : we've discussed them. I like the idea we had about him hiring Richard to finish the wolves who killed his wife. I can also see these two as friends. They could've been sparring partners in the past.
I'd also like him to have a run it with my little thief wolf TOBIAS TURNER. The poor teen is living on the streets since the orphanage kicked him out and causes occasionally trouble for aurors and other law enforcement. Dealing with thieves and drugdealers is exactly what trainee aurors do before they take on the big baddies.
I can also maybe offer ALMIR VILGOT ASKELAND for Merlin knows what. This quarter giant has a huge heart and will be both annoying and adorable. He'll think Rich is the coolest dude ever. I could even offer him for a slow building romance but idk if he is what you're looking for. They're also 10 years apart so that's maybe ehh.. Tho Almir looks much older than he is being 1/4th giant and all.
For Wolf I can offer a few:
@faith would absolutely hate his guts XD it could spark for quite an interesting rivalry. Maybe they were even a fling in the past that ended horribly.
I also have JUNAID ZALAYAT my purest boy. Feel free to manipulate him, make him cry. He is an easy target as he doesn't really understand the English culture and language yet.

EVE SANTACLAUS, sorry for not answering earlier, I've been all kinds of busy. I've currently got full hands with those two, but I will keep all these ideas in mind for when I don't have so much on my plate!
