Sophie Reid

Sophie Emma Reid
The End of Darkness (TDS)

Age/Year at RP start: 14/4th year
Birthday: June 4, 2019
Class: 2030/31
House: Phoenix

Hair: light brown, straight, long, and plain, not even any highlights, much to her dismay
Eyes: honey brown, very distinctive and her favorite feature
Physical: Sophie is rather plain. She's not fat but, no one would really call her thin either (althetic, might be the best way to describe her). She's tallish for a girl (about 5'9"). One of the first things she learned upon arriving at school was how to put her hair up in new and exciting styles to make up for it's drabness.

Pet: Gray cat with thin black stripes and white feet named Spencer.
Wand:

Background: Sophie is the daughter of sheep farmers from Scotland. It was quite a shock for them to learn that Sophie was a witch, especially since none of them, not even Sophie, could remember anything strange happening around her. But, perhaps Sophie's affinity for the sheep on her parents' farm was more than just ordinary.

Sophie started attending the local village school at age 5 but, was frequently absent to help on the farm once she got a little older. Miraculously (or perhaps not) the family was able to hire an extra hand about a year before the wizard came to speak with them about Sophie going to McMillian. The Reid sheep are highly prized for their exceptionally soft fleece and the herd has experienced a very respectable birth rate whilst maintaining a very low mortality rate. Despite Sophie's absence, the herd continues to thrive and generate quite a bit of income for the small family.



Sophie is the middle child and only daughter. She has four brothers, the youngest to whom she was like a mother. Her two older brothers were very protective of her but, now aren't sure what to make of her. The summer after her first year she received an official written warning from the Ministry for using magic outside of school when she was showing off for them. But, it was all in good fun.

Personality: Sophie can be quiet and withdrawn at times when she's feeling overwhelmed or homesick, which happens often enough that it's noticeable but, not so often as to damper her carefree and happy spirit. She's a bit of a show-off, always trying to prove herself, something that is due not only from being muggleborn but, from being the only girl amongst four boys. She loves quidditch but, she's afraid to try-out because there are so many good players. She hates to fail at anything and couldn't bear it if she tried but didn't make the team.

Sophie's best subject is charms because she puts forth so much effort to learn the charms to try and make herself up.

Abigail Wolfe

Abigail Wolfe
The End of Darkness (TDS)

Birthday: January 30, 2020
Age/Year at start of RP: 12/2nd
Class: 2032/39 (with Jackson & Holly)
House: Phoenix

Hair: brown
Eyes: hazel
Physical: If you saw her next to her older brother you'd agree that they are definitely siblings but, the resemblance isn't close enough that you'd notice it if you never saw them together and didn't know they were siblings. For this reason and the fact that second years don't have Care of Magical Creatures, that no one has yet realized they're brother and sister.

Pet(s): An assortment of random creatures from her brother. He intended them to scare her (and they certainly did) but, she loves each of them in spite of it and kept them around for as long as she could keep them alive.

Wand: 9 3/4 inches, mahogany, unicorn tail hair

Background: Abigail is the youngest of the two Wolfe children. After Elijah, the Wolfe's didn't think they'd be able to have more children so, she was a cherished surprised when she was born. Because she is lavished with all the girly wants and needs she could ever desire, Abigail has developed a complete and utter love and admiration for her older brother, despite his attempts to torment her with scary (yet, benign) animals and creatures.

She favors the color purple, is very sweet, and actually quite normal by McMillian student standards. She does well in school, has a few close friends, and has so far resisted the urge to run down to her brother's hut. As she's matured, she's come to respect (to some point) her brother's privacy and need for her not to embarrass him.

Her brother, Eli, is the Care of Magical Creatures teacher at McMillian.

Nicholas MacNair

Nicholas MacNair
The darkness... (SS)
A Kink in the Darkness (SS/TDS)
The End of Darkness (TDS)

Nick is a real piece of work. He first appears in "The Darkness..." pursuing the hand of Wyn. He loses her to Jacob Winston and develops a vendetta against the Winston family. He is a death eater and is friends with the Malfoys, though that friendship is rather one-sided as I don't think the Malfoys think much of him.

He has two children, Walden Bryce and Acacia. He abuses the both (Bryce as his punching bag and Acacia for carnal pleasure). He squanders all money he manages to attain (gambling issues) and takes that out on his children, as well, refusing them food and forcing them to share a room in the family mansion which is going to ruin. Bryce kills him in Kink and he is subsequently resurrected by Ren and Beth when they attempt to bring Ren's father back to life. He comes back in ED to cause more trouble.

Holly Winston

Holly Shauna Winston
The End of Darkness (TDS)

Birthday: November 30, 2020
Age/Year at start of RP: 12/2nd
Class: 2032/39 (with Jackson)
House: Shrake

Hair: straight, strawberry blonde
Eyes: hazel
Physical: Holly is all limbs, average 12 year old girl height.

Pet: crup named Bailey
Wand: 10 inches, willow, dragon heartstring

Background: Holly grew up in a little cottage on a hill just outside the village across the river from McMillian. Her father (Jake Winston) and mother (Serenity) both work at the Ministry of Magic. She has an older brother, Jonathan, who was named for her mother's father (and father's mother's best friend) who died before her mother was even born.

Since she lives so close to the village, she spends a fair amount of time with her cousins Jack and Jamie and her brother John. This has made her a bit of a tomboy and rather athletic as she strives to keep up with her playmates.

Holly is polite and courteous but, she seems to have picked up a bit of her Aunt Quinn's temperament through her father so, she's bossy and almost always gets her way when she's got her heart set on something. That might be why she managed to talk her parents into getting her a crup when she was ten (though it probably had more to do with the fact that they were going through a rough patch in their marriage and were overcompensating for their distraction).

While she doesn't know what she wants to be when she grows up, Holly loves transfiguration and wants to study to become an animagus.

Maggie Macnair

Maggie Mae Macnair
The End of Darkness (TDS)

Birthday: January 16, 2022
Age/Year at start of RP: 11/1st year
Class: 2033-40
House: Unicorn (note: currently attending Durmstrang after nearly drowning allegedly by Lucy)

Hair: dark brown
Eyes: brown
Physical: Maggie has her father's build but doesn't suffer from the petiteness of her aunt. She's average height for a girl her age and quite pretty. The pic above is just a little bit older than Maggie at 11 years.

Pet: solid black kneazle named
Wand: 11 inches, ash, unicorn hair

Background: Maggie doesn't know her actual date of birth so she and her family use the date she was dropped on her father's doorstep (August 3) as her date of birth. Her mother was "Sondra", a witch working The Wayward Wizard when quidditch player, Bryce Macair, was frequenting the scuzzy hotel in Knockturn Alley. She dropped her daughter off on Macnair's doorstep with a note and disappeared.

Bryce and his wife of two months, Rini Chang, took her in and hired a French au pair to care for her due to their busy travel schedules. Maggie spent a lot of time with her French nanny, Yvette for the first five years before Yvette was dismissed and her parents took over her education. While Rini was never an affectionate mother, Maggie did come to know her as her mother. She took Maggie on numerous trips and was a major contributor to Maggie's early education. Despite her eventual move into the role of mother, Rini continues to be 'Rini' rather than taking on a motherly nickname such as Mum.

Maggie is very close to her father, Bryce, who lavishes affection on her when he isn't busy training or away for matches. Fatherhood suits him and he managed to overcome his formidable weaknesses in order to provide as stable and good home life as his and his wife's careers could provide. Because of her parents' peculiar relationship and quirks, Maggie relies mostly on her surrogate grandmothers for emotional support and advice. She isn't very close to her cousins or extended 'family' network, though of course she knows them all.

As far as personality goes, Maggie is a pretty calm and stable person. Her curiosity was stunted due to her living circumstances (and perhaps an incident concerning her parents' private rooms, I'm not sure) so, she tends not to be one to pry into other people's lives or possessions. She is fiercely loyal to her family and any criticism from anyone concerning her upbringing or her parents. She doesn't see anything wrong or strange with the way her family works.

Maggie has not (thankfully) inherited her father's penchant for poor judgement. Nor does her obedience to Rini mean that she needs someone to tell her what to do all the time. Since she has spent a lot of time alone, Maggie is independent and quite intelligent. Though she seems a lot like her Aunt Acacia, she isn't quite as empathetic. She certainly isn't a very affectionate kid.

William Colby

William "Will" Xavier Colby III

The End of Darkness (TDS)

Birthday: April 2, 2018
Age/Year at start of RP: 15/5th year
Class: 2029-36
House: Unicorn

Hair: plain brown
Eyes: generic hazel
Physical: Will is 15 and has started growing a bit but, hasn't quite reached that growth spurt, yet so he's about the same height as the average girls. He should grow up to a modest height of around 5' 10".

Pet: none
Wand: 10 inches, mahogany, dragon heartstring

Background: William is the son of a real estate broker, William Xavier Colby II, and a financial advisor, Marriettta Colby. He was very excited to find out he was a wizard and could leave his highly structured home life and Eton behind him to come to the McMillian School of Wizardry.

William is very friendly despite his snobbish upbringing but, that could have more to do with being muggleborn and feeling out of place than because he doesn't have a bit of a snobby streak in him.

Persephone Malfoy

Persephone Malfoy

The End of Darkness (TDS)

Birthday: December 13, 2016
Age/Year at start of RP: 16/6th year (Prefect)
Class: 2028-35
House: Shrake

Hair: straight blonde with some darker 'highlights'- dirty blondeish
Eyes: storm cloud gray
Physical: Persephone is as all Malfoy as her older sister is all McMillian (poor Day). She's slender, pale, and perfect (just ask her). She stands about 5'7" like her mother.

Pet: Tarantula named Hairy (given to her by Al because one of the first things she told him was that she liked spiders)
Wand: Elm with dragon heartstring core

Background: Persephone is the only child of Draco Malfoy and Datura Rosier, though she has a half sister on her mother's side (Serenity) and at least two half brothers on her father's side (Brandon and Orion). She is 17 years younger than her half siblings and so is closer to her nieces and nephews than her siblings, though even then she isn't very close to them. Persephone spent a lot of time alone in Malfoy Manor, especially with loony Lucius. In his moments of sanity he doted upon his perfect granddaughter and gave her all sorts of trinkets (among them: a pair of his gloves, his pimp cane & wand, and a Malfoy brooch). When she wasn't with Lucius she was exploring the manor's passages, backrooms, and the dungeon.

About a year after Lucius' death, the Malfoys moved onto the McMillian campus where Persephone met and became good friends with Al Potter. The two became inseparable in their pursuit of becoming pirates together. *insert stuff that happens once we've sieved it*

Persephone and Al are officially a couple at the start of the RP.

Persephone has the Malfoy attitude but, she also has her mother's kind spirit. She's the perfect mix of confidence and caring. No one is going to take advantage of Persephone's kindness.

Background Information

"The darkness..." covers the significant background information on her mother and father's time at Hogwarts and the circumstances leading up to her birth so, I won't bother getting into that since everyone involved with TD2 will have read all that. After Hogwarts, Day goes to live with Wyn and Jay at Winston manor where she gives birth to her daughter, Serenity. They stay there for a five years. Day qualifies as a healer and gets a job at St. Mungo's but, after a while she regains her confidence and equilibrium and begins to feel she has become a burden on the growing Winston family. She leaves with her daughter to make a new life for herself across the ocean in New Hampshire (sorry, I couldn't resist ).

Serenity attends the nearby, all girls, school, "The Salem Witches' Institute" (I don't know why but, the name just suggests all girls to me LOL). At the end of the Hogwarts equivalent of 6th year, Day encounters an old 'friend' in the form of Lucius Malfoy. He was supposed to be looking for Serenity but, bungled into Day who, after the encounter, immediately took Serenity and began to make her way back to the only place she knew her daughter would be safe: Hogwarts. Fearful that they would be followed, Day took over a year getting back to the United Kingdom, exchanging sporadic, cryptic, messages with Albus Dumbledore along the way. They arrive back in the UK just in time for Day to see Serenity onto the Hogwarts Express. She encounters her old friends, the Winstons, on the platform and goes back to live with them, once again.
