HPRP: Pick Your Poison

[DaniDiNardo]

With the new year came an unexpected change in the staff. There's a new potions teacher and everyone can't help but notice how unorthodox she tends to be. Maybe she's not all that bad but the students can't help the suspicion that slowly creeps in. Things might have been better if they could point out exactly what it is about her that unnerves them but at the moment the only thing they have to go off of is her very famous saying "Pick your poison".

There is also something very unnerving about her jar that she keeps at the right hand corner of her table. Many have heard it bubbling but oddly enough they could all swear it's empty.

Why is it that they haven't learnt a single potion since the start of the term. Most important, who is Ms. Arscott and what does she have in store for them?

Okay guys so for this I'll need about six characters including myself to be the students that decide to find out what's going on. You should post a bio and until you do the character is not guaranteed to you. The only thing pre-determined is the characters names, houses and relationship but other wise feel free to be creative

A bit of background:
They are all fourth years and have been through a lot since the 1st year. At the moment the only functioning relationship exists between McKenzie and Adam. Aria and Eric have been on and off for a while and are currently off because she found him making out with a 3rd year during the first week back. Alexa and Carson have a kind of love hate relationship where everyone but them can see that they like each other. The snitch actually only tells on this set of students and this is because of a long standing rivalry between him/her (really doesn't matter) and Carson. Only 3 of them share a common house (Gryffindore) and that would be Carson, McKenzie and Adam. Aria is in Hufflepuff, Eric is in Ravenclaw and Alexa is in Slytherin (which made them distrustful of her for her entire first year).

Teacher:
Ms. Arscott- DaniDiNardo Pink

Girls:
Alexa Cambridge- DaniDiNardo Royal Blue
McKenzie Commone- Child of a Half-Moon Dark Orchid
Aria Southland- TakemetotheBurrow Indigo

Boys:
Adam Vyce- Siriusly_Demented
Eric Chestton- Rosa Chispa Princessa Red
Carson Grelic- EW_FAN Medium Torquoise

Santana Romanov (teacher's pet/snitch)- DeathEater1 Dark Red


And guys seriously, no one liners, this story is supposed to progress and be really fun and nothing is less fun than a one liner that everyone expects to carry the story. If you get stuck asked to be skipped or just take some time to think.

When she found out that she was going to Hogwarts she was ecstatic to be rid of her hold life and finally find some friends but that didn't work very well as she was placed in the last house she would have sworn she would have ever been caught in. When she found her now friends they were often distrustful of her and it took her nearly a year to earn their friendship. At current she finds herself in a love/hate relationship with Carson in which she can't stand him but at the same time she can't stay away from.

Ms. Arscott used to work closely with the law enforcement department at the ministry of magic but after a mission gone wrong she quickly turned to teaching. She grew up in a very liberal home and was told from a young age that she could do whatever her heart told her. It was a recent breakup with her boyfriend of 6 years that made her decide to take a teaching job at Hogwarts. Even she knows her methods are a little unorthodox but in her head that's the only way children will learn.

[Hello!


I haven't roleplayed in forever but I have a bit of free time on my hands this summer and your title drew me in... But, I'm not sure how this works since you seem to already have an image of Aria in your head. Do I go ahead and create a bio for her or are there any other limitations on her character that I should know about?

Thanks! ^.^


Uuuh...well, I have been working on a bio all day for Aria and just logged in to edit it in but apparently, it's already been given away/taken.

Oh well.

Carson is a total gentleman. He has complete respect for everyone he thinks deserves it, and he gets it back in return. He's always up for a bit of friendly banter though, as well. He is kind hearted, though intelligent and well bred. He often gets teased for this- but he takes it on the chin. He can stand up for himself very well.

Carson, for a long time, has shared a strange relationship with Alexa. Though they are friends, they have a tendancy to argue. He likes Alexa though, but Carson likes everyone. Well, there is an exception. Santana Romanov.

More:

McKenzie's not an orphan- her parents are much alive, and she is aware of them. But they put her up for fostering as a baby. She was fostered by the Commone's when she was six. Nobody- not even Adam- know that her real name is Sarah-Rose McKenzie. So to keep a little bit of what should be her family, she pretends McKenzie is her first name. She can't help Commone being her surname.

McKenzie is loyal, and reliable, but sometimes moody and can flare up, or get upset easily.

Pets: Maddie

Hair: Brown, unruly
Eyes: Green
Build: Tall and Thin
"Color": Indigo

Personality
Aria is a curious girl who loves a good mystery. It isn't surprising that the mysterious potions professor has peaked her interest. She is quite smart and counts reading as one of her favorite pastimes although she doesn't brag about her wits. Also on the list of favorite things to do are flying, playing the piano, and playing with her dog. Aria works hard at everything she does, especially because she feels the need to impress her rather distant father. Deep down she thinks if she performs well enough she'll somehow be worthy of his love. Because her mother died when she was quite young, Aria isn't a girly girl. Though she enjoys clothes and dreams of romance, she isn't one to wear makeup or get squeamish around dirt or spiders. This girl is resilient so don't count her out when she's down. She always seems to find a way to come out on top and bring others up with her. Above all, Aria is a good friend to have around. She goes out of her way to make others feel comfortable and wears her heart on her sleeve.

SPOILER!!: Eric

Name: Eric Chestton

Age- 14
Date Of Birth- October 16
Place Of Birth- London
Year- 4th Year
House- Ravenclaw
Blood-status- pureblood
Wand- 11 1/3 nches, hawthorn, dragon heartstring
Relationship Status- It's complicated Single

Bio: Eric comes from a rather rich pureblood wizarding family. He has always had just about everything he hever wanted. From an early age he was encouraged to study potions alongside his father who owns one of the best potion shops in Knockturn Alley. He was never partial to the darker potions like his father but he did learn a lot anyway. When his time to go to Hogwarts came he was glad to get away from the dark wizard atmosphere. However his last name was still well known. When he made Rvenclaw it was a pretty big shock to his parents and everyone else. Nevertheless he proved himself as aRavenclaw quickly rising to the top of his class. As he got opportunities to talk with his peers he was able to prove himself to be a nice guy regardless of his family history. He made some great freinds over his years at Hogwarts. One girl named Aria became more then just a freind for a bit. Her family did not like his and it was not long before things went south even though he really still likes her a lot.
