family member meme

[quinning]

In mere weeks we'll be torturing our poor characters with family visits. What fun! This optional meme (cleverly disguised as an... OOC/OOC?) is designed for two purposes:

(1) Ask for help in finding the perfect PB for your character's parents and/or guardians, or provide that aid to others.
(2) Show off your cleverly-devised family PBs!

No one's family PB choices should be taken as sacred. People are allowed to choose the same parental PB as someone else, or people are allowed to later app with a PB someone's already picked for their NPC sibling. Nothing here is taken as sacred! It's just fun. Cool? Cool.


INSTRUCTIONS

If you'd like to help others find PB(s):

If you've already decided on PB(s) for your characters' relations
OR If you sought help and were successful:
» Fill out and post the other form in SHOW OFF YOUR PB(S).

Picture:



FAMILY MEMBER 1

Name: Morris Evercreech
Relation: Artsy Father
Age: 37+
Ethnicity: White
Physical Characteristics: I HAVE NO IDEA.
'Look': He's a stay at home dad and an aspiring painter. I kind of imagine a Roger from 101 Dalmatians kind of guy. Way too lax when it comes to dealing with his five awful sons and all of their terrible behaviour and how much they fight one another. Figures they can work most of it out on their own. Thinks Calvin is an angel who is beyond sin, because he needs to have one good child, just let him pretend one of them isn't a massive brat.

FAMILY MEMBER 2

Name: Angelica Evercreech
Relation: Mother
Age: 37+
Ethnicity: White
Physical Characteristics: Fashionable, but a little frazzled.
'Look': She's the assistant to a well known wizard fashion designer, so Angelica is a very busy woman. She's a pureblood Avery. She has close family members in Azkaban (or six feet under, alternatively). She doesn't want to talk about it.
Any leads?: Nnnnno.
Anything else?: Nope.


FAMILY MEMBER 3

Name: Edmund Evercreech
Relation: Older brother.
Age: 16
Ethnicity: White
Physical Characteristics: Tall, athletic, brunette.
'Look': He's supposed to be uncannily similar to Sy. Macho alpha male, pretty close with Calvin, gets into fights a lot. He's not actually going to visit (but may during the Hogwarts game???) but JUST FOR FUN I'M LISTING HIM.
Any leads?: No. :(
Anything else?: He's all the worst traits of Gryffindor in one terrible young man.
