This RP is the backstory for one of my school RP characters, Professor Doyle Branxton. I find it intriguing that he was a Slytherin, yet he was very much the goody two shoes. I'm guessing he was placed in Slytherin due to his ambition but, I really don't know all that much about him and would like to explore his history a bit more. I get to know my characters best through RPing with others so, I hope some of you will join me in the RP. Since this RP will take place slightly after the time of Harry Potter, I'm looking for mostly made-up characters, though some of the professors may or may not still be around (we can decide those details later as I don't anticipate the professors playing major roles).
The year is 2035 (39 years after Harry & Voldemort perish in their epic battle of good versus evil). It is Doyle Branxton's final year at Hogwarts and he is Head Boy. Interestingly enough, it is also the final year for a Hufflepuff girl (Nora Leiden) and a Gryffindor boy (Kobus Hendrik). Note for those who follow the school RP: Zizhen would be a second year, Devine would be a first year, Hutchinson would be a 3rd year, and Yarns would be a fifth year.
I'm not sure how this RP will play out since it's a simple plot: Doyle's life and friends in his seventh year. I suspect he had several close friends and they didn't necessarily all have to be in Slytherin house. This probably caused some contention between himself and his housemates so, there's room for people to chose whether they want to be a friend or foe. Remember, he's a Slytherin, but he is rather prim and proper (or maybe that's just what we think  )
Please don't be intimidated. I'm hoping to include some regular members in this RP, not just my staff buddies, though I'm sure they're going to join up (or, I hope). So, jump in if you'd like to play along. If you'd like to join but, are having trouble coming up with a character, post anyway and we'll work something out.  Name: Doyle Branxton
Year: 7th
Birthdate: March 8, 2018 (so he's 17 at the start)
Favorite Classes: Potions & History of Magic
Least Favorite: Charms
Activities: Head Boy
House: Slytherin
Looks: Doyle is six feet tall with black hair and blue eyes. He is a medium build and wears glasses. His appearance is always neat and tidy and it's a wonder he can even come out of herbology looking spic n' span.
Personality: Doyle is calm and quiet. He has a few close friends. Most people mistake his quiet, thoughtfulness for being shy. Despite this seeming shyness, he is well suited to prefecting though, he would prefer to listen in silence rather than participate in scuffles and arguments. He is very studious, excelling in all his classes, even though he doesn't particularly like charms (I'm not sure why not, yet). I see Doyle as being rather Percy-ish when it comes to his duties as head boy and being respected as such, though he's not quite as stuck up as Percy tends to come off.
History: There was some muggle blood a few generations back in Doyle's family, but there are few wizarding families without such interminglings at some point so, for all intents and purposes, he is a pureblood. Doyle was always interested in seeing how things worked, even as a young child. He displayed the typical signs of magical abilities in his youth and was, of course, given admission to Hogwarts.
It took him a while to make friends since he was sorted into Slytherin house and had seemingly nothing in common with his housemates. Despite efforts on the staff's part to promote inter-house relations, the other three houses were still wary of anyone in Slytherin house. Most of his friendships were formed with people from other houses, causing a further rift between Doyle and his housemates. Despite this rift, he was given the post of prefect in his fifth year, a duty he took to heart.
He is now a rather ambitious seventh year student and head boy to boot. He has aspirations of gaining employment with the Ministry of Magic and, as such, is studying hard for his NEWTs.

Clara sat down and began to take notes about her meeting with Doyle, his secret hot cocoa and Runes' tips. She flashed a looked down to Coop, his gang, and Crys. But, they got nothing more. She busied herself with her new notes. Notes that would not be stolen from her, Merlin help her. |

Fabian ruffled his hair as he sat at the table, skimming it for something delicious. Grabbing a Shepherd's pie after Bren with a beam "Oh they're good, Good call Bren" he muttered poking his fork into it whilst his eyes darted around for meat. He needed meat to make his muscles stronger, definitely, and become the greatest keeper of all time. Right.
"Pork chops" he dreamily sighed zooming his hands towards the dish almost knocking Kail out of her seat "sowy" he muttered with a mouthful completely oblivious to whats happening around him.

Joana Johnson walked down the hallway fresh from the office. She had been gone for awhile to deal with the death of her mother and came back stronger than she left before.
Joana smiled at the paintings that she passed.

~~~~~~~new scene~~~~~~~
This has been so totally slow for the past few months and in light of the new Ministry of Magic RPG going on this July, Erin, Touz, and I need to get a few things straight in terms of the dynamic between Coop, Clara, and Doyle. So, if you guys don't mind, I think we're going to skip around a bit in order to get through the whole year in a very short period of time (less than a month, maybe a week). If you're on MSN and you want to join us for something, feel free to add biochemkris@hotmail.com and we'll work your character in if we can.
The first scene will be the Hogsmeade weekend where Clara and Doyle have their 'first date'. Feel free to join in the Hogsmeade weekend fun, just be aware that once we've achieved our objectives we're going to move swifty on.
Thanks so much!

Clara was dressed in vivid green robes and every curl on her head was curled to perfection. She had, of course, pocketed her notebook and peakcock quill for the evening.
Clara was to meet Doyle in the Common Room at just past lunch, after he had finished up his Head Boy rounds. She made sure he wasn't there yet, not wanting to seem too eager and went to wait in one of the tall arm chairs by the fire. She sat down with her notebooks and became, or seemingly became, very interesting in them as she waited.
