Quill Pals Sign Ups

Quill Pals

@Sanija-Lanea Aikens & @Ensley Rivera
@Riley Arcite, @Catriona Fraser & @Elisabeth Erner

These are your Quill Pals starting today and hopefully through owls, you will get to know each other and perhaps become friends in the near future. Have fun owling with each other! But if your Quill Pal stops replying to you, you may contact me and I'll try to let you join one of the Quill Pal pairings or just reapply here.

Name: Natasha Choi
House and Year: Slytherin, First Year
Link to Profile: It's here.
Open for Threads?: Yes.

Reducio

OOC: Maybe we could do a thread about how our characters have met; it could be in Diagon Alley, on the Hogwarts Express, after the sorting ceremony, the possibilities are endless! However, first thing first, I'll need to write some solo RPs for Natasha's Pre-Hogwarts days.

Would you like to owl OOC or IC?: Either is fine! (But I hope the other person would be kind enough and send the first owl, because I'm still trying to figure things out around here. )

IC or OOC Information:

Reducio

IC: Natasha is a pure-blood, who takes great pride in her heritage. She was born and raised in London, although she spent a great amount of time in her father's homeland, South Korea, too. Her parent gave her everything her heart desired, save for unconditional love, which is one of the reasons Natasha rarely smiles. She was raised to strongly believe in the pure blood supremacy ideology and, and her greatest ambition is to move to Korea once she graduates, grab a seat in the Ministry of Magic and bend the laws in a bay that'll benefit the blood supremacy ideologists.
On occasion, the young girl might seem like a lifeless dolls to those who know nothing about her background, but deep down she has a wide range of emotions hidden, although not all of them are pleasant. Her mother's side of the family is known to have a natural affinity for the art of potion making and dark magic, while her father's side is most notably linked to Magizoology. During her childhood, she was more often than not, in contact with serpents.

OOC: You can call me Tasha when we are OOC. I many ways, I'm just like Natasha. I speak Hungarian, Romanian, English, and I'm in the process of learning Japanese! I'm a university student in my senior year, so I might disappear for a couple of days in the future, but I'll always announce my quill pal beforehand!

IC-Interests: Magizoology, linguistics (learning different languages; she is fluent in English and Korean, now she aims to master Hungarian, Romanian, and Japanese, because her mother's side of the family are connected to families of these origins), the history of magic in foreign countries, and her own family's history.

OOC-Interests: I read a lot of (and sometimes write) fanfiction, but most of the time you'd find me in a corner, listening to kpop songs and learn choreographies. I occasionally watch Kdramas and/or Cdramas.

Note: I have already signed up for the Quill Pals system, but both partners went inactive, so I decided to retry

Name: Miranda Everest
House and Year: Ravenclaw 2nd Year
Link to Profile: Here!
Open for Threads?: Definitely! Would be happy to discuss more over owls!

Would you like to owl OOC or IC?: IC sounds better, but I am willing to do OOC in order to discuss possible threads, etc.

IC or OOC Information: Miranda is sometimes absent-minded and gets lost in thought easily, but can be quite fierce if circumstances dictate. She has no problem bending rules whenever curiosity or simply wander-lust gets the better of her, but also likes to spend lots of time studying. If breaking (sorry, bending!) a rule can result in learning something new, there's no question that she'll do her best to learn whatever there is. She is quite talkative at times, unless busy thinking, and doesn't mind lending a helping hand, especially when it comes to educating those who know less about this or that subject, especially if they can teach her something in return.

IC-Interests: She enjoys reading, and even writing if she must, although she doesn't like doing that as much. Miranda also likes being outdoors, unless there's water involved, such as rain. It isn't rare for her to spend hours outside, reading or studying in nature. Chatting with friends is something else she enjoys doing, though this is a newer trait that was never really explored during her first year, due to anxiety problems.

OOC-Interests: OOC, you can call my Sky, and I, like Miranda, enjoy reading. However, I much prefer writing over that, and even dabble in instruments and drawing. Like my character, I like to talk, although I've never been one to be nervous about it

Name: Starlee Raye Kennedy
House and Year: Slytherin, First year
Link to Profile: Tada!
Open for Threads: Yes! Half the reason I am doing this is to get more IC interactions and relationships!

Would you like to owl OOC or IC? I would prefer IC for letters (aka letters thread area), but we can certainly owl about any IC plans!

IC or OOC Information:
IC: Starlee is a young witch that is looking to have the best time she can at Hogwarts. She is a half-blood, and has grandparents that disapprove of her father marrying a muggle, so she has strong opinions and dislikes those with that same pure-blood supremacist mentality. She is quite clever, albeit naive about many things, and is very honest and trusting. She is very introverted, so writing letters would be the perfect way for her to get to know someone before she meets them IC. While she may be shy, she is actually quite adventurous after she gets to know someone.

OOC: I go by Starlee as well OOC. I am very friendly and willing to do most threads as long as it fits with my character. I am out of school, so no need to worry about any exams taking up my time, but I do have the odd random deadline or two at work, which I will notify those if the issue arises.

IC-Interests: Healing, Herbology (she has a plant collection in her dorm), Potions, playing games, adventuring, languages and books.

OOC-Interests: Board games, video games (Skyrim, Fallout, SWTOR), my cat, architecture, design, history, and traveling. I am a decent seamstress as long as I have a pattern, and I have made many costumes and outfits for various festivals and conventions. I am also quite the Disney fan.
