Character Name: Qrow Beithir
Schooling Year: 1st
House: Slytherin
Link to Encyclopedia: Here
Reason for Reapplication:

Name Change:
Reducio
Qrows full first name is Qrowley; they just get called Qrow as a nickname and I was wondering if I could have their firstname changed as I reckon thats what it would be in the school system anyways?


Long Lost Family Member: Adding a relation to @Phantom Witherstone
Reducio
Hephaestus Ironwood, grew up travelling around the world with his mother, a Magizooligist by the name of Elizabeth. His father had originally worked with dragons, having much respect for the creatures, however he later died due to injuries that he had got whilst working with them.
The ironwood family originated from Wales, having spent generations there, and wracking up a large fortune through their involvement in magical medicine and how it tied to herbology and magical creatures.

What lay unknown for so long was that Hephaestus’ late father, Corvus Ironwood, hadn’t always been faithful to his wife Elizabeth; a factor that led to the birth of Odin Westergaard

Odin grew up in Norway, meeting his first partner, Leif Nyberg, during his time at Durmstrang. Later, the pair travelled around the world by a handmade boat they had built together, eventually coming to England where they met Anastasia Riddle. The three then ran off to Wales together because Anastasia’s family did not approve of the polyamorous relationship, eventually settling down and starting a family.

Hephaestus and Odin didn’t meet until the beginning of their children, Qrow and Phantom, starting Hogwarts, their similar appearances and lifestyles raising a multitude of questions. It was only after genetic testing at St Mugoos that the two learned that they were in fact half brothers, sharing the same father.


Family Backstory Additions:
Reducio
Qrow has three parents, all of which came from pure-blood families.

Daemon and Niamh had an arranged marriage, with both the Beithir and Willow family having strong pureblood ideals, as well as Niamhs father wanting his daughters to marry rich. The two were engaged to be wed at sixteen and married later upon their graduation from Hogwarts.
They had become close friends during their time together in school, despite being from separate houses, however, they were also both deeply in love with their close friend Hephaestus Ironwood.

Hephaestus Ironwood, grew up travelling around the world with his mother, a Magizooligist by the name of Elizabeth. His father had originally worked with dragons, having much respect for the creatures, however he later died due to injuries that he had got whilst working with them.
It was his parents' love of creatures that began his own love of animals and the outdoors and likely what convinced the sorting hat to put him in Hufflepuff.
Upon graduation, he began working in the ministry, helping create laws to aid and protect magical creatures, occasionally travelling to document or study them for work.
Hephaestus is also a Grizzly Bear animagus.
The ironwood family originated from Wales, having spent generations there, and wracking up a large fortune through their involvement in magical medicine and how it tied to herbology and magical creatures.

Niamh Willow, a Hogwarts graduate from the house of Ravenclaw, prized for their intelligence and aptitude for learning, later went on to become an unspeakable, having excelled in the subject of Defence against the dark arts during the time of her education.
She had grown up the middle child in a household of nine children and far too little money and love to go around. Her father, Mìcheil was a nasty man, specifically to his daughters as he only wanted a male heir whilst her mother, Lillias, was ignorant to his behaviour. When she was first informed of the arranged marriage she was to have, she was furious as she didn’t want to pick between the two boys that she was so deeply in love with.
The Willow family originated in Scotland, and whilst they had originally been fabulously wealthy, their fortune was lost during raids on darker families and many of the elders of the family were sentenced to time in Azkaban.

Daemon Beithir - as well as his twin sister Lillith - was born into a rich pureblood family that had old and questionable ideals. The Beithir family has their hands in just about every inch of wizarding politics and has for centuries since they came to the UK from Egypt, not only that, but they grew their fortune through the poaching and illegal trading of magical beasts, a practice that, thankfully, ended with Daemon.
Whilst the man never agreed with his families pure-blood beliefs and mistreatment towards magical creatures and occasionally muggles, he kept up relations and appearances until he eventually inherited the Beithir family fortune after his marriage as well as the death of his father.

The family remains well respected amongst other pure-blooded families, as, regardless of their ‘unorthodox’ family style, everyone in it, comes from other respected pure families.
They do not openly voice their support of mixed blood families - nor do they pretend to agree with it.
It is largely assumed by other pureblood families that they do not voice their opinions in order to fly under the radar of the ministry.

Character Name: regina miller
Schooling Year: 3
House: gryffindor
Link to Encyclopedia: yoink
Reason for Reapplication: a change in Regina's family background on her mother's side. she now has an aunt named Alice Barett who had been Hunter McCoire's (@Colin McCoire's uncle) girlfriend in the past. their youthful trysts ended up in alice bearing an illegitimate child, but hunter had already moved onto another conquest by then. to escape shame from the scrutiny of the pureblood society, alice went into hiding in the usa and raised her son, Matthew Barett, alone. matthew is an ilvermorny graduate, and is both regina and colin's first cousin. therefore, our characters now have a family relation. NOTE: this story has been discussed and agreed upon with colin.

Reason for Reapplication: specifying the locations of my character's residence (it just bothers me so much).
Reducio
As stated in my character's profile, her residence is in Oxfordshire, England but I want to specify where exactly in Oxfordshire and that would be in the village of Souldern and if it’s possible to give the residence a name, I’d like for it to be called Serenebreeze. If not, specifying the exact location is enough.

Also, adding where the Voltrouz Manor is located which is in the outskirts of Bicester, England.

None of these were rp’d just yet.

STATUS: Approved, Opeila 04/06
Your residence will be changed to Souldern.

Character Name: Aly Salinger
Schooling Year: Fourth Year
House: Ravenclaw
Link to Encyclopedia: X
Reason for Reapplication:
Reducio
I have been inactive since November and, though I don't think I was removed from the index, I would like to explain my absence IG as well considering that Aly is no longer on the Quidditch team and hasn't threaded with any of her friends since the beginning of the year.

My idea for explaining this IG is as follows:
I'd like to state in a thread that Aly's father passed away towards the end of the fall semester, and though her mum Hesper didn't have to take her out of school for the funeral seeing as how the Christmas holiday came first, Aly just never returned after the break. Her mum - heartbroken, lonely, and still angry about Aly's teenage rebellion that has already been written in threads as happening in summer and early fall of 2022 - decided to keep her at home and homeschool her instead of allowing her to return to Hogwarts, but by the beginning of June, Aly has convinced her mum to let her return to Hogwarts just in time for her final exams of fourth year.

Please let me know if you have any questions/need elaboration!

Minor Edit: I would like as well, while Aly is being homeschooled, for her to find her father's old school journal while cleaning up his things and begin to almost change herself into the version of Benjamin Salinger that her father wanted to be while he was at Hogwarts - wanting to join the duelling team, being more rebellious and adventurous, etc.
STATUS: Pending, Opeila 04/06
Why did Aly's father pass away?
Clarification: Aly’s father was an employee at the Department of Magical Accidents and Catastrophes, which has been in her backstory for ages. As such, he would have gone out into the Muggle world every once in a while, and my idea is that - obvious tw for parental death - he passed away on one of these visits after he was hit by a car while crossing a road, due to the driver not paying attention and Benjamin’s own lack of experience with cars. It would have been sudden and unexpected, hence Hesper’s grief-stricken reaction of keeping her daughter as close as possible. I am happy to come up with a different cause of death if this does not work.

Arabella Lebedev (Astor):
Arabella Astor is the daughter of Prudence and Viktor Astor*, as well as the sister of Augustus Astor. She was a Gryffindor, and married Lev Lebedev after school. Together, they had one daughter named Anya. Arabella is Nerissa's aunt, which makes Nerissa and Anya cousins. Lev is brothers with Andros, André Lebedev's father, so André is also Anya's cousin.

*I want to clarify that those are the names of Nerissa's grandparents, on her dad's side.

Character Name (First and last name): Astoria Middleton
Schooling Year: 1st Year
House: Hufflepuff
Link to Encyclopedia: bippity boppity boo!
Reason for Reapplication: Inactivity. Writer went back to school for a teaching degree and had to step away to take care of classes, practicums, and eventually student teaching. Last year (May 2022), writer was hired to work at a school and finished their first year just a few weeks ago. Now that they have accomplished their first year, there is freedom and flexibility to get back into RPing!

STATUS: Pending, Finley, June 14

1) OOC you were removed for inactivity, but that didn't freeze your character, who should be 14 or 15 now. Please explain why she was held back IC, as she should technically be a fourth year if I did my time math correctly.
2) Your profile card also displays an incorrect birthday, she should not be born in 2012 if she attended Hogwarts in 2019.
3) Your trunk and stats are now outdated. Please refer to this post to find information on our standardized trunk template. In short, no colored text. You can find more information on stats here, since you are fully human, your stats should add up to 35
1.) IC: Astoria’s grandmother, Matilda, was away in France on holiday when she fell dangerously ill from a potion brewing mishap. Astoria was concerned that her grandmother wouldn’t make it which resulted in her missing class and falling into a state of depression. Astoria’s father had contacted Hogwarts and asked that Astoria would be sent home so that she could travel to France to be with her grandmother. Her grandmother ended up passing away and Astoria resided in France for a long period of time. Eventually, a large family dispute occurred which prevented Astoria and her family from returning to the United Kingdom.
2.) I have adjusted that Astoria's birthday year would be in 2008. Since she attended Hogwarts in 2019 at 11 years old, she should be born then in 2008 (I hope my math is right :P )
3.) I have reviewed the updated stats of the Trunk and have adjusted the stats based off the new system. I made sure that the total came up to 35 and removed any color from the trunk's font.
STATUS: Pending, Finley, June 22
I'm a bit confused with the last part of your IC reasoning, this prevented them from returning to the UK? Why did they return, then?
STATUS: Approved, Finley, June 27
STATUS: Re-Opened, Opeila 28/06
Due to several errors in the processing, I have re-opened the case, Astoria was owled. The trunk had not been changed to a game master post yet, Astoria's name was temporarily removed from index.
1) Spells and Potions were manually added by Astoria- They either need to be removed or evidence (report card) needs to be sent
2) Birthday is one year late
3) First instance of accidental magic needs to be added to the first post of her ency

Note to self- Astoria was never registered, so I will copy this post including her backstory over to registration for complete logs once it was approved.
