Hello friends! Callie again, but this time with a BOY. :) I'm late on the intro train because I took an impromptu trip to Asbury Park, NJ for a zombie walk. Many apologies! <3


This lovely young man is Ryan Hertz. He's an Azurcrest senior, and I'm going to go ahead and quote his concept first because it's important and probably the best way to sum him up I could ever do. "Enigmatic doom cookie keeps himself hidden under a bad boy image." Yeah. Let that sink in first as we move onto the bullet points lol

-Born in Versailles, France but moved to Dorchester, MA when he was 7. (Yes, he speaks French!)
-Halfblood. Mom was the witch who abandoned him to his muggle father when he was born. His father was a strict man, but things didn't get bad until the magic appeared. That's when the verbal/emotional abuse turned physical (and into creative/archaic punishments) to "drive the evil out"
-Ryan went from a charming and engaging child to a wary and guarded one who believed there was some curse on him that he was being punished for and that everyone would eventually leave him because of (cheery, right?)
-His only saving grace came in the form of Chris Park's mom, who treated him as her own and tried to make up for his shit father.
-He expects the worst first, and is always secretly expecting people will turn away or betray him even as he's putting on a good front
-After finding out his mother is in Azkaban for being in league with the Dark Lord, he decided it was his mission to be nothing like her
-He is naturally charming and engaging, with a laid back live and let live mentality and adventurist/individualist spirit, at his core. He also just firmly believes he doesn't deserve any happiness
-Generally presents as an enigmatic bad boy persona rather than his awkward and guardedly pessimistic nature. Lots of arrogance, snark, and dry wit.
-He hides these feelings because he doesn't want to be anything like what his father thinks he is or his mother is, but he also kind of wishes he could really be like that
-Tends to be extreme in his moods, and can be quite frustrating at times. No real "middle ground" where he's concerned.
-CLASSES: History of Magic, Potions, Transfiguration, Charms, DADA, Occulmency
-EXTRACURRICULARS: Duelling/Fencing, Gaming


Full bio is here. He needs ALL THE THINGS. Friends (besides his bestie Chris), exes (though he pushes people away when they get too close, except Chris), enemies, people he clashes with, ANYTHING. Help him grow and get over his sad sucky history please!!! <3 <3

Holden grew up in Dorchester! He's seriously wondering if there's something in the water there. He honestly would not be surprised. Ryan might recognize his accent, because it hits you like a ton of Wahlbergs. OH and he went to muggle school with Chris! He probably recognized him all O_O sup when they got to school together. But he's a shy doormat so that's probably all they've got going.

Ryan might recognize Sylla's last name as dark arts related and legacy-linked, not that she ever really talks about it, because ugh how gauche. Yeah she has some dead/imprisoned Rosiers and Selwyns back in the old family tree if he digs hard enough, but why talk about that when she can be enigmatic and questionable as well! She's in dueling with him, and generally creeps around the rest of the time.

And then there's this boy Wes! Coppertale Senior, Cajun AF, Potions talent and destined to be a faith healer some day (soon he hopes, but lbr, that ain't in the cards). He's an open book and his personal image he projects is sweet as Louisiana pecan pie, with unbelievable cocky swaggery a la mode. omg honey find yo chill that bad boy thang ain't cute~ He'll try to cheer him up, because that's generally his role in Coppertale, anyway, and it generally radiates outward also :P
