ADRIEN THOMAS YATES
<<seventeen :: ravenclaw :: pure-blood :: single>>
Adrien is a rather new addition to Hogwarts. His mother has remarried, and has decided that he now needs to be closer to home rather than at Beauxbatons where he was before. At least he had a brief introduction to the school during his sixth year, as that was the Triwizard tournament. He wasn't all that impressed. Because he had to leave everything behind for one more year, he is awfully moody and likely to take it out on people that don't really deserve it. He would one day like to be a wand maker, and the house of Ravenclaw suits him well as he is always pursuing knowledge.
Obviously he needs a few friends but wouldn't make many on his own. A love interest could be fun, as he had a girlfriend back in France that dumped him in a letter when he moved away. They weren't very emotionally close, but he is still annoyed about it. Enemies and rivals will probably come easier than the rest!
Diana Ashton :: 'Partner'
BLAISE ZABINI
<<fifteen :: slytherin :: pure-blood :: single>>
The arrogant mama's boy returns! Blaise is the son of a famously beautiful witch who has been widowed seven times, each time gaining more of a fortune. This is awfully suspicious, but if you ask Blaise about it, he will shrug it off. Despite the fact that they are close (his mother is his only family) he considers that to be her affair. He hasn't ever had a real father figure. Blaise keeps to himself most of the time, and prefers to study than to hang out with his housemates. There are exceptions, of course, but not many.
He needs some friends, I suppose. He is not a follower and really not a leader either, seeking friendships with people who are his equals or near enough. Pure-blood Slytherins and Ravenclaws are the best bet. He doesn't mind half-bloods too much but certainly wouldn't get too close to one. Romance is an alien concept to Blaise at this point, as he hasn't found someone worth giving himself to. He is a precious commodity! Likely will not have many enemies to start with, but intellectual rivals would be good.
HENRIETTA MARTIN
<<sixteen :: gryffindor :: unknown blood status :: single>>
Henri is an orphan of the first wizarding war. She knows nothing about her real family or her blood status or anything like that. She doesn't even know if Henrietta is what her parents named her. She has gone from house to house since she was a child and is currently staying with an elitist pure-blood family that treats her as a servant. She can't help but compare the situation to Cinderella. You know, minus the whole prince thing. She had to grow up rather fast in order to take care of herself since no one else would. She is good with money and has her own job, and is a pretty together person.
She is amiable, so will probably have a good amount of friends. She would like someone to play quidditch with, and talk about the future with. As for romance, she has a thing for older guys but that isn't absolutely necessary. She just doesn't tend to consider school the place to find love. It could happen, though. Might have one former friend that would be considered an 'enemy'? She likes to speak with anyone who has an opinion.
IWAN JAMES BURKE
<<sixteen :: slytherin :: pure-blood :: single>>
He is confusing to most of his peers. He begged to be placed in Slytherin but despite his good family and his pure blood he really doesn't belong there. He wants so badly to impress his mother at this point, without realizing just how messed up her views are and how they do not at all match his own. He doesn't care about blood status, and is a very empathetic person. Oh, and his imitation of his mother as a child has left him with a very feminine demeanor.
Iwan has a lot of friends, mostly girls. He wants a female bestie! Someone to shop with, and go to the coffee shop with, and go to parties with. His enemies are probably within his own house because he does not fit the Slytherin mold. He is a great embarrassment to his sister who is always defending him. As far as love goes, he is completely inexperienced. He needs some.

JUSTIN FINCH-FLETCHLEY
<<fifteen :: hufflepuff :: muggleborn :: single>>
Having survived the Chamber of Secrets ordeal has left Justin both a little stronger and willing to defend himself, and... well, cautious and anxious. But he is still a rather talkative, bright, and happy person. He comes from a posh upper class family in the muggle world and it is quite jarring to be part of both worlds, as there are people in the wizarding world that think of him as nothing due to his blood status.
His canon best friends are Hannah Abbott and Ernie Macmillan, but unless someone makes them, he needs some buddies. He'd match well with someone that wasn't all that talkative on their own because he could fill their silences, or someone who is as bubbly as him to drive everyone else nuts. There is probably no end to the people that would bully him, but he doesn't have a real enemy yet. He has never dated before. He really hasn't been mentally or emotionally mature enough at this point! But he's noticing how cute some of his classmates are now. That's a start.
SHALIE MATSUOKA
<<fifteen :: ravenclaw :: half-blood :: single>>
Shalie is exactly half-blood – from a mother that's pure and a father that is a muggle. She has a love of both worlds but more experience in the muggle one. She loves books, cars, and potions. She can often be found by herself down at the lake, or in the library buried beneath books. She is shy and awkward, often unsure how to start or continue conversations. But once she knows someone a bit she opens up and can be very excitable. On the other hand, she doesn't back down from a fight. She will defend herself and her friends from harm. Or her beloved toad, Gordon.
She has been pretty invisible most of her years there. She needs just a few friends, as she is pretty uncomfortable with crowds. She could also tutor someone in potions or another class. She likely does have some enemies from protecting other people from bullies. She has also not dated, having a tendency to crush on people who just see her as a friend.
@kimeko :: Mother
SYRAH ROSE MAROTTE
<<fourteen :: hufflepuff :: muggleborn :: single>>
Syrah is still very attached to the muggle world in which she came from. From an early age she became interested in music and dance, an interest which only intensified when she lost her mother. Her ambition is to become known for her dancing within both the muggle and wizarding worlds, and her adoptive father is her biggest supporter. She is quite confident and too honest, leaving her with few friends to speak of.
So, that all said, she does need a few friends. People who are creative in some way would probably be best for her, even if dance and music isn't their thing. She could also use some enemies, particularly other girls... Maybe a Slytherin since she is a Hufflepuff? She might not take it well if her father ever started dating... Just saying. Wink Wink.

TANITH ELINOR BURKE
<<sixteen :: slytherin :: pure-blood :: single>>
Tanith, or as she prefers to be known, 'Eli' (pronounced like Ellie), is the twin sister of Iwan Burke. She fits the Slytherin label better than he does, being a sarcastic and witty conversationalist. Really, she believes in speaking her mind even if the other person doesn't want to hear it. She is a negative person, tending to notice what is wrong before what is right about something. So while she is honest, she tends to hurt feelings without sugarcoating her words. She is not a Potter fan, finding it endlessly annoying that he is always breaking rules but being praised for it. For her part, Eli isn't particularly rebellious.
Eli would have friends in Slytherin house, but probably not any other. She doesn't stray far from the dungeons. That said, she doesn't specifically befriend people from her own house. There are surely some people who despise her because she has been rude to them or a friend. And dating? Ha. Most of the people she likes speaking to are boys, and they just don't see her that way.

BLYTHE BURKE
<<thirty-three :: former slytherin :: matchmaker :: pure-blood :: divorced>>
Blythe is your typical high class elitist pure-blood woman. She hosts parties for her equals, and delights in being knowledgeable about the families of the Wizarding world. It was this combined with her interest in Divination that led her to become a matchmaker. She usually matches her client's children with others of a similar situation, but can match adults too. She is a believer of diversifying the pure blood lines as they are becoming quite stagnant. Genetics from other countries, for instance. Her research into families helps prevent too close of breeding... unless that's what they are going for.
She will have plenty of acquaintances in the Wizarding world, both good and bad. She needs clients to match, friends to be snobby with, and possibly lovers to round out this life. She is not allied with the Death Eaters, but that choice will probably come soon enough. Maybe someone to recruit her to it?

HATTIE HARRINGTON
<<twenty-three :: former hufflepuff :: half-blood :: assistant professor :: single>>
Hattie is definitely a Hufflepuff. She believes in hard work, treating people well, and leaving the world a better place than it was when the time comes to leave it. Right now, she is an assistant professor, her job changing from day to day. She loves interacting with students and making sure that they understand what is expected of them. She is encouraging and always optimistic. She has a love for muggle music.
She would have a lot of friends that come to her for advice and probably some that she goes out drinking with once in a while. While she tries to avoid playing favorites with students, there could be one or two that she gets along with better than others. Hattie has been on a lot of first dates in her time but never quite connected with anyone. She is more focused on her work now, as she plans to take a teaching position permanently when she can.

IVOR FARWELL GLADSTONE
<<thirty-five :: former gryffindor :: pure blood :: magical law enforcement :: single>>
Ivor is brave, intelligent, and outwardly quite positive. He has a dorky personality and is quick to harmlessly joke around. He believes in hard work and therefore doesn't use magic in his day-to-day life. It is essential to his job as basically a wizard cop, though! He is a trainer, teaching both aurors and regular witches and wizards advanced offensive and defensive magic. He keeps himself busy, because if he doesn't, he might fall into a depression he can't escape.
If anyone has any Ministry folk, or even just older chars, some friends would be good! Obviously, dark witches and wizards (criminals, at least) of any sort are enemies to him. As far as love goes, he figures that part of his life is behind him. Or, rather, was never even meant for him. Doesn't mean he can't be wrong! Also, you'd better believe he will be protective if Syrah starts dating one day! Unlikely as it is.
@syrah :: Adoptive Daughter
JAVIER DEMERY
<<twenty-four :: former slytherin :: pure-blood :: ministry worker :: single>>
Javier will do just about anything to gain power or influence. He doesn't have a set goal for where he wants to channel this, he just likes the idea of the world changing because of something that he has done. Chaos can be quite fun as long as he can pull a few strings at the same time! He sees the world as something like a game. What he does affects the outcome, and without a real moral compass, he will do things just to see what will happen. But he is not a mindless creature about it. He is intelligent and always looking after his best interests.
Friends would be fellow baddies. While Javier doesn't consider himself a Death Eater, he is closely allied with their cause. He needs a friend or two that he considers to be intellectual and interesting enough to enjoy their company. He will have affairs with women as long as it furthers his goal. He is yet to fall in love, but it may happen one day. Just don't expect him to put their life ahead of his own!

KIMEKO KAYANO MATSUOKA
<<thirty-three :: former hufflepuff :: pure-blood :: healer :: separated >>
She grew up in a very strict elitist and prejudiced family. Because she had to attend the parties from a young age, she befriended several people who would go on to become Slytherins, and some of them later Death Eaters. This threw her because she was always a very loyal person. She was also moral and conscientious, and in the end, she became their enemy when she joined the Order. She took on the role of healer so that she wouldn't have to fight one-on-one with anyone that she cared about. For a while after the war, she disappeared into the muggle world with her husband and daughter. She's come back to the Wizarding world completely now, because she knows it might all happen again.
Kimeko needs friends. It would be kind of interesting to have a former Death Eater that might or might not return to Voldemort when the time comes, to further divide Kimeko's spirit. She has left her husband because he refused to accept the witch she was, and is open to the idea of finding someone that truly accepts her. So love is in! Enemies? Well, obviously the people still pursuing Voldemort's twisted agenda. She has no respect for people who claim that they were under the Imperius curse, but is quite forgiving of those who seemed to show remorse for their actions in the war.

TUCKER EVERETT HARFORD
<<thirty-two :: former hufflepuff :: muggleborn :: assistant professor :: single>>
Tucker is really good with people. He likes to be around groups of them all at once, too, like in a party setting. He is seriously quite a dork, with a playful personality and the sense of humor that would make one throw their palm to their forehead. He laughs easily and tries to make the best of a situation. But underneath all that, he is a little traumatized by what happened in the first wizarding war. Being a muggleborn he had to go into hiding, and eventually faced some of the Death Eaters. Quite scary! He sees a therapist to deal with it to this day. And he dreads the idea of them coming into power again. He's taking a risk by assisting the muggle studies professor at the moment while he tries to find his place in life.
Tuck probably has some bros that he likes to go out with on the weekend and have fun. He tries to avoid alcohol but hey, parties are parties. He was an overweight dork in school and he therefore had trouble with girls. He was rejected harshly back then and he's still a virgin because he never got the confidence to be with someone. He tends to think they're just messing with him.
