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. The Cast: Doyle Branxton (Slytherin, 7th year) Head Boy- Biochemkris Crystal Zitzburg (Slytherin, 7th year)- Fizzing LeeBee Robert Harrison (Ravenclaw, 7th year) Captain & Chaser- demented_death_eater Matthew Pace (Slytherin, 6th year)- Amy Tonks Bella Zane (Hufflepuff, 5th year)- HPCHAMP101 Noah Carter (Ravenclaw, 6th year)- Hopelessly[Hopeful] Clara Belle (Slytherin, 7th year) Journalist- Mad Eye Touz Brennan Andrew Cooper (Slytherin, 7 year)- Cassirin Lorcán Walt (Slytherin, 7th year) Captain & Seeker- parvatifan Flavia Antiganus (Gryffindor, 7th year) Prefect- Meandering Asher Smithson (Ravenclaw, 7th year)- Lissydove Emil-Owic Mislotovich (Ravenclaw, 7th year) Seeker- Emil-Owich Nora Leiden (Hufflepuff, 7th year) Head Girl- Cassirin Kailee Marie Sommers (Slytherin, 6th year) Chaser- anglewing Vincent Alezando Martini (Ravenclaw, 7th year)- angelwing Fabian Clark (Slytherin, 7th year) Keeper- Mamushkaleontti |

He was cute enough for her and Crystal loved boys... Emil-Owich looked at the carpeted floor when the girl spoke. "Yes, I mean no" he sighed. "I mean, yes to the watch were I'm walking thing and no to the hurting someone thing" he said, reliefed that he could talk that long. He wasn't the talking type. He wondered what the girl could possible had written in her book... Quote:
Crystal broke her gaze from Branxton for a slight moment to see what Clara was fussing over, and couldn't help but smile at what she saw in front of her. "You could so have him, Clara dear. We'll get it arranged when we get to school. Promise," Crystal squeaked.
Emil-Owich had not expected this when he had started his hunt for the Food-Trolley. The girl couldn't possible be talking about him. He looked over his shoulder to see if anyone was standing behind him. He didn't care how dumb it may had looked. No one was there. He turned around, doing everything to avoid eye-contact. As he scrathed his head, making the messy hair move, he blushed.

After they had left she moved to find where the guys had gone off to. That quest took her shorter then she had planned when she found them right outside. She moved in front of them and pushed them back into the compartment. "You guys left me alone with them." She said poking Bren in the shoulder. "Totally not coolness." She gave a slight chuckle and settled back into the seat.

| Made of Awesome | Ern-la the Best-wa | TZ's Apogee "You're a big girl now, Kail. If you can't learn to deal with Belle and Zitzburg, you'll never make it through the next year," Brennan smirked and leaned against the door of the compartment. He glanced briefly at Ash to make sure his color was normal before he focused on Kailee again. "You want to do me a favor, right?" "I DON'T talk about people, and I think you'd be well advised to turn your attentions to more wholesome pursuits," Nora's voice took on a slightly shrill and very bossy tone. "Regardless of what I think about the other candidates, the fact is... they chose us."

When the slytherin girl spoke about him, Emil-Owich flashed her a smile. He had no buissness here, but he still wanted to hear what the head girl had to say. He leaned on the wall, crossing his arms and arched an eyebrow..

"Between you and Doyle here I think I can clearly predict a good clean school year for all of us." Laying it on thick, thick, thick. Clara shrugged her shoulders and made a cute face at Doyle. "I'm going to write my first article on you two. Dashing Duo. Or something." CLara's quill feather was waving as she spoke. |

| Technically technical all the time Bookaholic Doyle sighed and looked around the aisle while the girls chatted. He turned his attention back when he heard the name of the article. "I think you of all people would be able to come up with a better title than that for your article," he tactlessly commented, something usually out of character for him. He was just getting extremely fed up with Leiden and everything to do with her, especially her trying to cozy up to him. So, the title Clara had proposed certainly rubbed him the wrong way.

I mean I didn't even go to the prefect meeting. Why would he believe that I wanted to be close to him?" She sighed and shrugged her shoulders. "I'll try my best though I guess. But you owe me...so big." She told Bren.

| Technically technical all the time Bookaholic Doyle sighed and extracted himself from Leiden to follow Clara. He put a hand on her shoulder as he caught up to her. "I'm sorry," he said, not wanting to put a wedge between himself and the few people that actually liked him.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen "Bad Tempered Branxton Can't Handle Pressure," Clara recited, as she turned to face him. "You should be sorry. You're forgiven because I'm sure you're under loads of stress and are terrified of messing up such an exalted position as Head Boy. Not to mention having to do rounds with the less than loveable new Head Girl is probably doing a nice job on your nerves. Am I correct?" Clara clicked her tongue at him and shook her head. |

| Technically technical all the time Bookaholic "Ah..." It seemed as if 'nerves' was the trigger and he whipped off his glasses to clean them. "Yes, well... I suppose that's mostly correct. I just never worked well with Leiden and only three people are actually glad I got this job and yes, I am a bit nervous about not excelling in this new position. But, that doesn't excuse my tactless comment and I am sincerely sorry," he said, recovering nicely as he finished polishing his glasses and placed them back on his nose. "What can I do to make it up to you?"

Fabian strolled down the train aisle searching for a compartment, peaking from one compartment to the other he accidently bumped into a hufflepuff (Crystal). Being a strong built he probably injured her unwillingly, he vigilantly turned for her aide. "Sorry" he murmered apologetically placing his hand on her shoulder " did i hurt you?" he asked peaking in her face.

Emil-Owich didn't know what to say when Crystal grabbed his arm. "Uhm" he said, thinking of a place he could go. "I dunno" he said with a nervours smile and scratched his head wit his free hand.

He felt rather guilty asking this of her, as he was unwilling to get close to Leiden in the same way they were asking her to get close to Doyle, but she and the others were just so much better suited for this kind of game then he was.

| Technically technical all the time Bookaholic Doyle had no idea what she was talking about and stared at her in confusion as he went over what he'd said and her response. Comprehension slowly dawned on him and he went white before his face started to glow bright red. He choked a bit and took off his glasses, fumbling for his hankerchief. "I assure you... I never... I didn't mean... I mean... I..." he spluttered, trying to pick up the shredded pieces of his dignity.
