Whoo hoo! All right, here we go! Launchin' my first official RPG on snitchseeker. Cheers, anyone? ... Or not.
So, I'm not a huge fan of incredibly drawn-out plots, so I'm keeping this one pretty brief.
Durmstrang and Beauxbatons have both been temporarily closed because both schools have decided to undergo additional construction in order to allow more students to attend. The construction is taking quite long, however; muggles have been becoming increasingly suspicious about the goings-on in their areas. Therefore, the construction process is taking much longer in order to create the semblance that there is nothing magical at all going on. As a result of all this nonsense, Durmstrang and Beauxbatons students must attend Hogwarts this year. The school will be filled with new students, and drama is sure to ensue. Friendships will emerge, romances will blossom, and enemies will surface! (Insert intimidating music here). So, that's it! Let's see where this goes!
Also, a few quick things:
-Follow Snitchseeker rules
-Be committed!
-Only made-up characters, please!
-No organized relationships! It's more fun to actually not know who your character is destined to fall madly in love with.
If you're curious, I'm thinking most students should be 5th - 7th years
Hello there, your thread has qualified into our forum and you can now begin RP'ing as soon as you get some players. We would like to remind you of a few links which are here for your reference:
OMG I'm your first! Yay! I'll get a reward, won't I? (haha just kidding.)
First of all, welcome to SS You'll love here, we guarentee.
And seconly, I <3 your plot. A few questions though (there always are.) If we be a D or B student, there is no obligation like "must know Russian or French", yes? 'Cos I want to be a Durmstranger, and I don't know Russian.
Oh I would love to be in this. I love the plot. I'll take a student from Beauxbaton. I'll edit with a bio as soon as I get your approval.
Bio:
Name: Cassady Lynn Shawman
Age:16
Year:6
School: Beauxbaton
House: ? (I don't know where she will be staying at Hogwarts)
Appearance: Cassady has light brown hair that is full of gentle curls. It reaches past her shoulders. Her eyes are a warm chocolatey brown and almond shaped. She is very slender and sporty. She stands at a wopping 5'10".
Personality: Cassady is very bubbly and open to people she knows. To others she is quite shy and timid. She loves Quidditch and singing and dancing. She is ok with fashion but she would rather be playing Quidditch than shopping.
History: Cassady was born into a muggle family that lived in a rundown four bedroom home. She had three older brothers and six younger sisters. She was treated as fairly as her nine other siblings. She was thee only one in her family to go to Beauxbaton since her great-grandmother.
Appearance: With a slender and athletic build, Blair stands at roughly 5 foot 9 inches tall. She inherited her clear, tan complexion from her mother, and her soft, golden hazel eyes from her father. Her long, dark blonde hair flows down just past her shoulderblades with a slight wave to it; some have even said it appears like spun gold in the sunlight. Her melting, white smile frequently pans across her soft features and reaches up to her eyes. She’s no slave to fashion, but she does enjoy dressing nicely and shopping for those days when she’s not required to wear her usual Gryffindor robes.
Personality: Blair’s aura of friendliness and her constant smiles seem to cause her to get along with almost everyone she meets. She has a laid-back and fun outlook on life, seeing as she’s always up to something with her friends, but somehow drama does seem to surface with her more often than she’d like. She tends to get irritated with Slytherins, only because many of them come off as egotistical, and arrogance is one trait she absolutely can’t stand. True to the Gryffindor values and loyal to those she cares for, Blair seems to be a seventh year student whom the younger students look up to. Although she almost always comes across as a confident, genuine young lady, she typically finds herself insecure when it comes to romance.
Family: Blair’s family consists of her mother, father, younger sister, pet cat, and herself. Both her parents attended Hogwarts, her father a Hufflepuff and her mother a Gryffindor. She’s very close and protective of her sister Clara, who is a third year and also proudly wears the Gryffindor crest. Blair adores Archimedes, her tiger-striped cat, despite her friends’ teasing her for her love for the feline.
Extra: She enjoys sports, even muggle ones, and loves quidditch; thus, she plays Chaser for the Gryffindor team.
Appearance: Dmitri has jet black hair that comes down a bit past his ears in a slightly shaggy manner. His incredibly dark green eyes command one’s attention, and people find it very difficult to look away, particularly when they have only just met him. His height measures roughly 6’1, and although he’s not bulging with muscles likes some of the Durmstrang boys, his body is toned and strong. Many consider him handsome, but in a darker way than the blonde-haired, boy-next-door sort of way.
Personality: Dmitri tends to keep to himself and only his closest friends; in fact, he often enjoys being alone. It allows him to think. A fair amount of girls have attempted to capture his heart, but none have succeeded. He lets them down easily, though, seeing as he is very polite and gentlemanly when you get to talk to him. Being more of a quiet introvert, he naturally has an observant eye and a knack for excellent grades. His interests include reading, swimming, and especially sketching – typically charcoal portraits of unbeknownst students around him.
Background: His parents lived under the rule of the USSR most of their lives, though each parent was from separate countries. Dmitri has one sister, Ileana, who finished school two years ago. They’re close and they care for one another, though they don’t have many opportunities to see one another.
Appearance: A mop of jet-black hair that hangs loosely over his forehead, making his deep-set brown eyes seem even more shadowed. Straight nose, sunken cheeks, thin lips. Most of the time has an angry or sullen expression on his face.
Personality: Sulky. Something of a loner, a lurker. Taciturn and unsocial. When forced to participate in any social event, chooses to watch from the sidelines.
Family: The only child in a pureblood family. Parents' marriage was prearranged, and, due to the magical binding, had to be joined in matrimony, even though mother was found to possess no magical abilities, whatsoever. Father (pureblood) - a high-ranking Bulgarian Ministry of Magic official that rules his home with an iron fist, domineering and cold; mother (Squib) - a dutiful, subservient housewife who swallows everything her husband throws at her. Alex remembers that long ago, when he was little, there was a kind woman, grandmother, perhaps, who took the little boy in her lap and sang folk songs to him, lulling him to sleep.
Extra: mediocre student, best subject: Care of Magical creatures; doesn't play Quidditch; likes to go for very long walks.

Bio: Delana is a nice girl who could never quite fit in with anyone at her school. She is happy that she is getting the chance to escape from snooty Beaxvaton and go to a school that is more down too Earth or so she hopes.
Personality: outgoing, sporty, but also has a bit of a preppy side,why can't a girl be both
Intrests: swimming, hiking,quiddich, hanging out with freinds, and most all just likes to be out there and have fun

Could I also take the role of a boy student from Hogwarts? I'll have a bio up in a sec.
Bio:
Name: Jacob Shaun Smith
Nickname(s): Jake
Age: 17
Year: 7
School: Hogwarts
House: Gryffindor
Appearance: Light brown hair that is very messy. His eyes are golden brown. He has very white teeth and a great smile.
Personality: Jacob is your average bad boy/ class clown type. He would never miss out on a chance to get in trouble or pull a prank. He has became very acuanted to the Headmaster during his years at Hogwarts. One of the only reasons they won't get rid of him is because he is one of the smartest kids at Hogwarts. The other reason is because he is one of the best players on the Quidditch team. He could have almost any girl in a snap of a finger or a flash of his killer smile.
History: Smith is one of the most well known names in London, England where he lives in a castle with his younger brothers and sisters. Both of his parents attended Hogwarts so it was quite obvious that he would.
Family: Jacob comes from a very large family. He has 6 younger brothers three of which are in their 3rd 4th and 5th year at Hogwarts. He also has 2 older brothers who have graduated from Hogwarts and now live with their own families near the castle. He has 3 younger sisters and 1 has just started her first year at Hogwarts. He has 4 older sisters who have graduated from Hogwarts and have their own families and live near the castle also. All 4 of his grandparents live in the castle with the family. They all attended Hogwarts when they were younger also. Every single person in his family that ever attended Hogwarts (they all did) were in Gryffindor.
Extra: He has a pet Owl which he calls Salvidor.
Name: Sierra Jac Vogue House: Gryffindor Blood: Pure Date of Birth: January 1 Age: 17 Year: 7 Best Subjects: History of Magic, Arithmancy Worst Subject: Herbology Eye Color: Bright Blue Hair: Blonde Height: 5’8”
Appearance: Sierra’s soft blonde hair that often falls down her back is usually left loose, as she prefers it that way, but it’s sometimes in a ponytail. She wears all types of different clothes, mostly things made or given to by her father, and treats her appearance well. She fusses around with her hair when she’s nervous, but won’t be upset if something messes up her hair, or something. Probably a good thing, as it’s something her brother loves doing.
Personality: Sierra is pretty confident with what she does, but not extremely so. She also nearly always means well, even if it just doesn’t really come off that way. She’s a very good listener, but telling her a secret isn’t a good thing to do. Sierra isn’t likely to go and tell everyone, but that doesn’t mean she’ll keep it a secret. She’ll tell anyone anything if she thinks it’s something they need to be told, and do anything if she thinks it needs to be done. But, a lot of the time, it’s for her friends just as much as herself, even if it doesn’t end up helping. Overall, she’s very kind, just much to interferring. Sierra tells the truth a lot, and tends to like being told the truth back, and is good at spotting lies. Sierra can be stubborn when she wants to be, and has a lot of determination. She’d do anything for a friend, and she’d do anything to get someone to tell her the truth, even if it’s just a small thing, she still has pride.
Background: Sierra grew up in a rich family, being used to having a lot, and liking that fact, but she doesn’t take it for granted, and it’s not where she gets her pride from. She was born in France where she grew up with her brother Reid, and her sister Floresca, until her brother was ten, she was nine, and her sister was eight. She moved to England because her dad got a better job over there, and her parents wanted her and her siblings to go to Hogwarts, anyway, so it was simply easier living in England. But Sierra, like Reid and Floresca, still misses France, it’s warmth, and everything about it that they loved, but they enjoy living in England, too, and still go back to France in most holidays. Sierra is close to her sister and brother, and she is pretty protective over Floresca as she’s so sweet, and as Reid calls it, “naïve” but she’s not nearly as protective over her as Reid is. Reid isn’t really protective towards Sierra, though, something she’s glad for. Sierra isn’t boy-crazy, or anything, but likes haing fun, and boyfriends.
Other: Sierra’s father works in the fashion industry, something she can’t help but like, as he gives a fair few things he makes to her and her siblings. She also helps her father when she’s at home with this, whether she’s in England or France, as she takes so much interest in what he makes.
________________________
Name: Floresca Vogue House: Gryffindor Date of Birth: March 2 Age: 16 Year: 6 Best Subject: Muggle Studies Worst Subjects: Ancient Runes Eye Color: Brown Hair: Light Brown Height: 5’5”
Appearance: Floresca has long wavy brown hair, often put up in a ponytail to concentrate, unless it’s some sort of special occasion. She isn’t very concerned about her appearance, even though she’s very pretty, she does like wearing simple or light things, like dresses.
Personality: Floresca is naturally sweet, and kind, but it’s just something she’s used to being. Everyone she’s around or meets, it’s almost always true that she’ll take an instant liking to them, even just by first sight. It takes a lot to prove to her that someone isn’t actually so nice, because in her eyes, everyone seems nice and friendly. Floresca is very naïve about many things, to the point when she cannot understand what some people mean. But it’s very easy to like Floresca, because she likes everyone, is very cheery, and has a radiating warmth around her. Floresca seems delicate, but it’s more due to the fact that she isn’t a mean person, and so trusting, than actually being weak, as she’s probably as strong as her sister, without Sierra’s strong determination to do anything. She finds it quite easy to walk up to someone she doesn’t know, talk to them, and more often than not, make friends. But Floresca often seems as if she’s in her own world. She’s very creative, and likes playing the piano drawing, painting, writing and reading, among many other things. Floresca is really very smart with all the reading and other things she does, and is very good at concentrating even in noise.
Background: Money has barely effected Floresca, as much as her siblings, anyway. Her siblings aren’t exactly spoiled, but the only thing Floresca is really concerned about having ad doing, is being able to all the things to be as creative and artistic as she is. She loved the enviroment of France, and living there with her family, but is still just as creative in England. Floresca enjoys company, but can also just as easily sit for hours and hours by herself just doing things. She has never been embarrassed by how really creative she can be. In Floresca’s opinion, well she doesn’t quite understand her siblings’ need to be so very protective, but doesn’t mind it grately. Although it gets rather difficult for her when her brother Reid barely lets her have any guy friends, but that at least is something her sister Sierra doesn’t mind, because she thinks Floresca has the right to. Floresca hasn’t had any experience with boys as more than friends, partly because of her brother, but also because it’s never really crossed her mind.
Other: Floresca’s mother is quite artistic, too, and perhaps that’s where she got it from, but, either way, she was a very good teacher to her about that kind of thing.
_________________
Name: Reid Vogue House: Slytherin Blood: Pure Date of Birth: August 19 Age: 18 Year: 7 Best Subject: Potions Worst Subject: Eye Color: Blue Hair: Blonde Height: 6’1”
Appearance: Reid is good looking, and it’s not something he hides. Even though he tends to dress pretty casually, he still makes it look good, anyway. He also thinks about how he looks quite a bit, but not heaps of the time.
Personality: Most of the time Reid doesn’t think about what he says, simply because it doesn’t really worry him. He can come off as very blunt, and mean, but most of the time, he just states the truth. He’s nice, to people he likes. And a good person to be around, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t fit in as a Slytherin. He’s very devious, and good at planning things. He often tells the truth, without thinking about it, but he’s just as good at lying. Reid likes doing what he’s not supposed to be doing, just because he’s not supposed to be doing it. But as uncaring as he could seem, with people he feels comfortable around, Reid is pretty caring towards them. He thinks about other than himself, too, just... After himself. Reid thinks quite a lot about himself, and jokes around about a lot of things. He also tends to flirt with girls quite a bit.
Background: Reid is a bit too much used to having a lot, but he has to work for it. Being the only boy in the family, and the eldest, he needs to be pretty protective over his siblings. Or, at least, he thinks he does. His youngest sister Floresca, in particular. Reid is never really protective over Sierra, mostly because she doesn’t need protecting, but also because she wouldn’t let Reid. Sierra isw probably the only person who can consistently get Reid to do what she tells him. Reid helps his father work generally in the holidays, and not because he wants to like Sierra, but because his dad tells him to. But he’s not very resentful, as it’s pretty fun. Reid also misses France like his siblings, and he isn't exactly girl-crazy, but he likes flirting, and having girlfriends.
Other: For a boy whose nature is very lazy, Reid is very strong and quite active. He also does quite a bit of work when he’s at home, but he just has a good way of making things fun. He makes almost anything into a competition.

Personality: Hanz is the type of guy that is quiet most of the time. Very mature for his age, he likes being left alone because it frees his mind of all thoughts, where he can just lie down and stare into space. He's responsible and takes his studies seriously. He isn't one to go around telling people, or even his friends, what's going on in his mind or what he plans to do next. Unlike his sister, Hanz has a more serious attitude and keeps an expressionless face most of the time. He’s a kind guy, but doesn’t trust people easily. He and his sister have a very close relationship and he likes being with her most of the time even if she’s very outgoing and likes to change him to what she thinks is better. He is very helpful and considerate, and unlike most people he doesn’t ask for anything in exchange for his help.
Background: Hanz is the eldest and only boy in his family. Apart from his twin sister he has a younger sister which is seven years old. His native country is Germany which he has spent most of his childhood in, when he was nine his family moved to England because of his father's job. They visit Germany every summer to visit their friends and relatives.
Other: He and his twin sister are not alike in looks or attitude, but they understand each other and are comfortable with their close relationship.
Personality: Deedee is a very outgoing girl, and doesn't like to keep quiet. She likes taking risks and doing whatever comes across her mind. And is known that when she sets her mind to do something no one can stop her. She's not into studying much though she studies because her twin never stops nagging her. She spends most of her time fooling around and having fun. Unlike her brother she likes visiting new places and meeting new people, which is a trait she got from her mother. She doesn’t care much about what people think about her and doesn’t like to be bossed around. She is a tempered little monster, but most of her friends know better than annoy her. She can go to any means to get them back. She loves her brother so much, but hates it when he gets overprotective and when he tries to make her see sense because if no one’s got any power over her, her twin brother certainly has a kind of influence.
Background: She comes from a German family and she spent most of her childhood there. She loves spending summers in Germany and would love to move back there which she knows is not possible. She has a younger sister whose seven years old, she simply adores her.
Other: She enjoys sitting in stormy evenings and listening to her brother reading a story out loud until she falls asleep.

Reason: Changed a bit.

Okay, so I made another guy character since we have a few more girls than guys. We'll be starting on the second day of school, so all of the students are adjusting to all the new faces, situations, etc. Beauxbatons and Durmstrang students were placed in each of the four houses, depending on the student's personality, so you guys may choose which house your D/B character will be in. Also, if you haven't posted your profiles, please do so in your next post. Any questions, just ask. =]
Glad that the classes for today were over with, Blair decided it was too nice of a day to neglect the outdoors. She meandered through the halls until she found herself out on the expansive lush grounds of Hogwarts. Apparently, many of the other students had the same idea. The breeze blew her long, dark blonde hair around as she walked along to no where in particular, rolling her white sleeves up in the process. Smiling slightly to herself, she figured it would just be a matter of time before she run into some friends.
Dmitri leaned his back against the tree behind him, feeling the rough bark through his thin shirt. The novel in his hands was closed momentarily, his finger marking the page he had stopped on, and his dark jade eyes scanned across the grounds. He had to admit, Hogwarts was very beautiful.
Sierra had come outside, and looked around at the Hogwarts and other students with a smile. As she looked around, she saw Blair there. "Hey," she said with a smile, coming over to the girl.
Aidella | King of Confusion | Brittana | Forever ACROMANTULA
"Hey, Sierra," Blair smiled as her fellow Gryffindor joined her. She was always fascinated by the clothes that Sierra got to wear; Blair could scarcely remember a time where she had seen Sierra dressed in an outfit she had worn even just once before... except for her robes, of course. "Where's Floresca?"
"Hey Blair." Sierra smiled at her friend. "Floresca? She's around, somewhere, I think she was drawing, or something." She answered. Floresca tended to do that kind of thing. "She'll be outside soon, though, probably. She loves the sun," Sierra said. It was usually quite a bit warmer in France.
"Hey Blair, Sierra." Floresca appeared beside the two girls. She had decided to come outside while the warmth lasted.
If you need more guys, I can add a meanie boy to this group or a young handsome professor just to make things more interesting ahem Izzy, if you say yes, I'll edit this with a bio
Alex, hidden in the shadows of the thicket and trees on the lake-bank, watched a giant tentacle rise out of the water. He doubted Hogwarts would be any different from Durmstrang. He would keep hiding, eluding everyone - a willing loner. It was as if the bright sun and the dazzlingly white clouds mocked him. The wind carried the sounds of other students his way and he heard broken sentences, "Blair... where's Floresca... hey... Sierra"

Deedee was walking through the Hogwarts grounds, it was very weird for her to be walking alone she always liked to be the center of attention and noise. She walked until she found herself facing a tree with another student sitting down at the edge of it, it wasn't anyone she recognized so she assumed it was a student either from Durmstrang or Beubaxtons, she sat down not quiet beside him, but keeping a distance so that if he didn't want to talk he could still have his place. "Hi." She said smiling and looking around at him.
Hanz was walking aimlessly in the grounds, having just dumped his bag in the Gryffindor common room he thought he'd have a peaceful walk around the grounds before it got dark. He wondered where Deedee was for a second, making new friends or gossiping around he thought, his sister was very predictable.
