Character Almanac 2.0

Just like the Meddler's Almanac, but more up to date and with some boring stuff in there, too!

Name:
House & Year:
Hometown: Where your character is from. If this is a wizarding town or neighborhood which you made up for this game, feel free to include some information that other students would probably know about their hometown.

School History: What year did they start at Gooseberry? Where did they go to school before? What was their Ilvermorny/Hogwarts/etc house?
Class Involvement: How do they behave in their classes? Are they talkative? Disruptive? How often do they skip? Do they have a favorite partner for groupwork?
Campus Presence: Where on campus do they spend their downtime? Do they haunt the library? Are they big on school spirit? Have they tried every club at least once?
Party Time: Do they regularly attend Grotto parties? Do they drink? Smoke? Provide the contraband, or freeload? Steal the aux and play their weird music?

Best Friends: Your bestest buds in the whole world.
Cliques: Other groups they tend to hang out with.
Out-of-School Social Circles: Does your character have any old family friends? Parents who know each other? Do they keep in touch with their old school friends? (For example, the children of MACUSA reps hang out together at MACUSA events.)
The Not Friends: Any ex-friends on the record? Messy friend break up, or did you just drift apart? Bitter rivals? Or even just people that annoy you a little bit?

Sexuality: How would the student body at large perceive their sexuality? It doesn't have to match their actual sexuality. But if it doesn't, are they out to a few people? Nobody?
Dating History: Significant past relationships?
Current Relationship Status: Are they single? Dating? On the prowl?
The Messy Bits: Would it be obvious to an observant meddler that your character has a crush on their bestie? Or has your character engaged in public flirting and/or fighting on the journals?

Common Knowledge: Stuff absolutely anyone on the campus would probably know about your character. (For example, Clem's father is a retired quodpot player and she has a very young baby brother who was born last year.)
Personal Stuff: Stuff close friends of your character would know about, but probably aren't common knowledge. (For example, Ariadne has been disowned by her parents.)
The Secrets: Stuff only your character knows about themselves.

Rumors: Anything untrue that might be circulating in the gossip mill? Put it here and it's fair game for other characters to speculate and elaborate on!

Anything Else? Whatever else you want us to know!
A cute gif of your character: It's a meme staple, but only post one.

YEAH, I'm just in a constant state of looking for things to be anxious about but in the end I'd rather make it canon than just something secretly rolling around in my head. Even if I never do anything with it.

I kiiiiind of overloaded this character with issues which made him a little tough to play at times. But I forced myself play him a lot with the sophs and Marin had to listen to hours of me just talking about Calvin AND NOW I THINK THINGS ARE BETTER.

ftr i think calvin's gender identity issues are really interesting and make a lot of sense :(

YOU ARE VERY KIND and have also listened to so much Calvin meta lately

But thank you :(

def def def better to have it on the table than for it to be like, a weird double-secret between you and your character, imo. esp if it's something you already kind of have marked out in your head. and that way if you ever do want to do something about it, it's established. also, maybe this is something calvin and cash will talk about some day. i....... can't imagine them ever willingly having that intimate of a conversation, and also cash is not a very helpful person, but

HEY ITS A FRESH YEAR who knows what positive developments the universe has in store for calvin

Edited (I SAY 'DEF' BC I ALSO GET ANXIOUS also hell yeah character meta 8) i luv them shits) 2017-08-11 17:47 (UTC)

You know, Calvin actually prefers to admit harrowing emotional things to people who won't get all OH YOU POOR THING on him. I think it's why he likes Ree so much, and why he chose to tell Micah about what a monster he was when he was younger. Soooo he might see Cash as someone a) informed, and b) unlikely to waste their time with coddling him over it. WE'LL SEE WHERE THINGS GO NEXT YEAR but I would love it if it happened. :(

I HOPE HE EXPERIENCES TRUE HAPPINESS and maybe also is less nasty to people but I'm not holding my breath on that one.

rubs my grimy hands all over your characters yesssssss excellent i would love that too

I am glad you forced yourself to play calvin more I have always been fond of him and I'm glad he and Essie became better friends again ;3;

I also think the gender thing is really interesting and was excited to see it on his new profile and that is mostly what I wanted to say. (essie is probably too dumb to ever talk to about it but I like it!!!)

Thank youuuu and me too ;A; I'm glad I have someone to keep bugging Essie with because I loooove her and Diego's gone. :(((( Calvin thinks Essie is too sweet and he's afraid of breaking her but he'll also lash out at anyone who crosses her, which... is not always great. But there you go.

Ahhh, thank you! ♥ I'm excited-nervous :c

rofl awwwwwwww she's tougher than she looks calvin but thank you!! ;n; and ME TOO. i'm sorry basically every conversation with her ever involved telling diego he was WEIRD.

YOU ARE WONDERFUL

Edited (Sorry I hit enter too soon) 2017-08-12 03:31 (UTC)

NO YOU!!!

We should have Calvin and Fern talk more. They're both so sardonic.

I AGREE

Nature has probably kept them apart so far for safety reasons. They aren't allowed to combine powers.

I'M REALLY EXCITED ABOUT GENDER THINGS and think it's super interesting and also think that you are great????

I can't wait to bother Calvin with both Hazel and Ramon :c

THANK YOU ;A; You guys all made me feel a lot more comfortable about it so I'm grateful.

Ahhhhhhh same same same ♥ Calvin likes the two of them so much.

♥ ♥ you make such great kiddos!! I'm glad we can help you feel a bit more comfortable though because I know it can be hard -3-

Y2 is gonna be so great!!!

micah recommends that calvin make out with ramon

A+ experience

No.

No more kissing roommates.

Edited (Definitely no kissing your beater partner??? Who has that ever worked out for.) 2017-08-12 03:49 (UTC)

this is fair but.............

ramon is behind calvin smooching

Ramon would need to catch him after a couple drinks and in the morning he'll scream into his pillow. WHY ARE BOYS SO UPSETTING????

i mean its not liek you can make out with HAZEL so micahs just reocmmending the second best!!!!!!!!

(second best after micah ofc ;*)

Calvin doesn't want to listen to Micah tell him who to kiss. :|

Hazel will 100% kiss Calvin for smooch competition though
