On the quiet North End of the Street lies a modest-yet-popular shop called Quality Quidditch Supplies. Through a battered storefront polished to its finest, you enter a world of brooms, bludgers, snitches and much more. The shop is rather old, but your new shopkeeper has redone the whole place adding banners by the windows and by adding some quidditch posters of famous players from all teams here and there. Everything inside is neatly stacked and organized. So go on explore and see what good deals you can zoom away with.
Shelves and Displays
The shelves and displays are the first thing you notice as you enter in the Quality Quidditch Supplies shop. The side walls of the shop are neatly stacked with brooms and posters galore. You will find the latest brooms in stock as well as the typical family broom available. Between the side walls there are various shelves that are filled with various quidditch supplies and goods. This includes but is not limited to robes neatly arrayed on stacks, keeper gloves and on the two most outer-middle shelves, broom service kits. Lastly the back wall displays books and other reading materials, all to do with Quidditch of course.
Gobs of Displays
Following the displays of brooms and the like up at the front of Quality Quidditch Supplies, towards the back you see another section of displays, not of brooms, but of the Gobstones & Quodpot sort, along with little knick-knacks and toys perfect for all ages. The side walls of the shop are neatly stacked with posters and frames, gobstones, and matching merchandise for support. Feel free to stroll along and find what you need to aid you in your game play. Lastly, the back wall displays books and other reading materials, all to do with Gobstones and Quodpot of course.
Back Room
Only our most privileged customers are permitted to enter the back room of the shop. Here we hold unique items and remaining stock of items that aren't able to fit on the displays or are in need of refurbishing. At the very back is a door where the shopkeeper does his admin work.
Front Counter
Once you’ve found and decided on the goods you wish to purchase, you may bring them along and make your way towards the counter found right in the center towards the back of the shop.
When your purchases are all bagged up and you're ready to go, head back out to the North End of the Street for more Diagon Alley fun!
Name: Nancy Tamesis (née Hudonson) Nickname(s): Nance, Queen of Confusion Date of Birth: December 2nd, 2053 Place of Birth: Liverpool Wand: Pine, phoenix-feather, 10 ¾ inches Blood Status: Pureblood Patronus: Fennec Fox Relationship Status: Married to Steven Tamesis Current Occupation: Student / Temporary QQS Shopkeeper

{APPEARANCE}
Height: 5’3’’ Skin: fair Eye Color: Blue Hair: Dark-blondish
{BRIEF BACKGROUND/HISTORY}
Nancy was born into a quite rich middle-class family in Liverpool. Her mother Virginia's side of the family are a little dispersed as after a huge fight between Virigina and her sister Zoey the latter moved to Australia to start a new life there...and to be as far away from her sister as possible. Therefore, the only relatives Nancy is in contact with are ones from her father's side, who - according to her - are a little on the strange side, however. Don't ask her about it or she will go on and on for hours about what ridiculous ideas they've come up lately.
Both her parents agreed on only having one child so they could take better care of it and don't run the risk of neglecting one of their children. This has however led to them being totally overprotective of their only daughter, trying to prevent her from doing anything which might be in some way dangerous. Obviously, this is not taken very well by their daughter...
After her time spent at Hogwarts, Nancy moved on to study Arithmancy at university while attempting to make her relationship with her boyfriend Steven work. Which it did. So much so that they got married in 2075 and moved in together.
{PERSONALITY/EXTRA}
Nancy's generally a very extraverted, friendly person who normally lends a helping hand to whoever is in need for one. Of course there are also people she wouldn't do that for but let's not dwell on them...much. She loves Quidditch, playing it, watching it, talking about it. Furthermore, Nancy is absolutely fluent in sarcasm, so don't take her serious all the time. Another extremely important part of her life are her friends for whom she would do anything and is very loyal to.
There is one thing Nancy is absolutely terrified of and that's snakes (yes, ironic much, her being in Slytherin and all). Especially after an incident in her Sixth Year involving a certain former Slytherin Prefect (aka Reese Upstead) her Ophidiophobia has become worse.
Another thing she can't stand is crying. This includes herself and others. Tears creep her out and it is extremely hard for her to comfort a crying person. It just gives her the creeps. Period. At times she can be extremely lazy, especially when it comes to doing homework or just in general things she doesn't enjoy doing. Procrastination is her best friend.

Medusa, unlike her name isn't all mean. Sure, she's quite strict, firm, silent and tends to keep a blank-expressioned face yet she is VERY fond of children. In fact, she often babysits her five year old niece. But...as loving as she is to little kids, she doesn't entertain men. Nope. She'd rather live alone that be tied to someone who orders her around.
She doesn't like being demanded to do something, she's the one who demands. But not in a bossy way, more like a pretty please way. She wants everything in order, she wants everything clean. She LOVES manners. She's nice when you're nice to her and her shop (yes, and everything on it) but if not.....WATCH OUT!
Also, she loves flowers. You know, the large red ones. Yeap, her favorite. *nods*
∞ Brief History∞
Medusa was born on April 23rd, 2049 to parents Aphrodite and Benedict Dischell. She only has one sibling, her younger sister Dionne.
Growing from a pureblood family was not like the usual ones for Medusa. Her family was quite the opposite of those stereotypical pureblood clans. They were enthusiastic and just full of life. So she grew up with these traits. Her mother and father made sure that she and her sister never insulted or looked down on muggles. Hence, why she and her sister Dionne never got into a fight with other children.
Having known her magical abilities since she was five, she was then sent to Salem Academy of Witches a few months after her eleventh birthday. She studied there and excelled in her own way. Her sister was the one who was too engrossed with Quidditch at the very start, she wasn't that interested, Later however, her sister had influenced her and that made her utterly obsessed with the sport.
After a few years, she graduated from the Academy, went into a Wizarding University at Montreal, Quebec, Canada where she took up Business Administration and Management. By the year she graduated, she learned that her sister got pregnant and the guy never claimed the baby. It changed her. From a happy-go-lucky woman, she became an uptight lady instead. She helped her sister with raising the child and finally..after almost five years of isolating herself from the outside world because of tending to her niece and sister's welfare, she decided to continue living her life.
And that is why she bought the Quality Quidditch Supplies Shop when its previous owner sold it. She was going to start anew, and Quidditch was right there to back her up.

Orcus is your everyday handy-man. Smirkful, playful, but all the same respectful. Compared to his sister, he's not short-tempered, but instead is approachable and very accommodating to everyone. Especially women. He likes children and acts like a father to them. He questions the rules but in the end still follows them. He's the kind the doesn't want to get in trouble but winks his way out of them if he comes across it. He's quite secretive too.

My Skills
Erica is the typical business woman. She works hard and is beyond organized. To her everything has to be clean and tidy and at it’s best which is why some people might call her a perfectionist and a perfectionist she may be yet she has a much warmer side. This brunette is very friendly and knows exactly how to deal with customers as she has been doing so for the past years in her various past careers. She can remain calm and modest in even the toughest and most rude situations as she believes that shouting and screaming only causes more chaos. This is her work-like personality, yet outside of work she tends to creep out her shell more.
Although Erica is quite comfortable doing various activities on her own she also tends to enjoy the company of some people, particularly family. This Dixon often stays in touch with her family that is well spread out all over the world. She is also keen on friends, but believes that one true friend is more important than plenty fake friends and therefore does not befriend every person she acquaintances. In fact she is rather picky when it comes to friendship as she is with her work. To her everything must be chosen carefully and even the finest details must be looked at.
All in all Erica may seem slightly distant and only a work concerned person at first but when she opens up you will see her true colours are warmer than expected.
Quidditch Through the Ages
From the very beginning Erica had a love for Quidditch. At only the age of three she began taking an interest in the sport and would often be seen showing off around the house with her toy broom. This passion only grew further and at school she played Quidditch all those seven years. Yet she knew playing was not a reliable career choice and her marks were not the kind to be ignored. Therefore to not waste her marks or working methods Erica studied towards a Bachelor of Arts degree in Business administration knowing that she could still work within the Quidditch career field if she so wished.
During her university years she began waitressing to help her gain experience as well as money of her own. It was then that she also met her soon to be husband, James Taylor. The two dated for over a year and then eventually married naively in 2074. The marriage only lasted three years due to complications that Erica does not fondly wish to speak of. The two are still in touch but both are happy with the divorce.
After her studying and whilst going through her divorce Erica began to work as an assistant manager for the Falmouth Falcons, quidditch team. There she gained more experience than she could have ever wished, yet her hope of a promotion to actual manager never appeared and eventually she tired, wanting to begin something new. It was then she began her own business.
Her home business would help supply Quidditch teams with uniforms as well as equipment rather than have them go through all the trouble themselves. It was a rather successful business and Erica rather enjoyed those working years, yet things began to fail close to the end and it was then that her wealthy father bought her Quality Quidditch Supplies to shopkeep and successfully run.
There are still many aspects of her past that Erica keeps hidden but if you wish to find out more, be careful with how you ask. She is not fond of everything and will not share everything with anybody either.
