Edwin Connolly

Nicknames: Eddy, Eddie, Ed, Asshole (said only by the very brave) Birthdate: November 11, 1992 Hometown: Ireland Bloodstatus: Pureblood Hogwarts House: Slytherin/Fourth Year Hair: Blonde Eyes: Blue Weight: 214 lbs Height: 6'3" A bit more in depth: One word suits Edwin (Eddy to his closest friends) perfectly, that word would be Fun! He gives the impression of being incredibly easy going, almost to the point of laziness. However, he is actually anything but lazy and only a fool would underestimate him. He enjoys pushing his physical limits and is a stickler on his own fitness, enjoying grueling work-outs among other physical activities. Not a big drinker, Eddy often watches with amusement as his friends let loose, preferring to keep a level head to ensure their safety. Loyal to his friends and family, Edwin can be relied upon during difficult times without fail; there is no question that he will have your back in times of need. Although he doesn't have a girlfriend, he has been known to flirt. He is more than capable of having a long term relationship; he just hasn't met the right girl yet. Further Insight: Growing up with Liam and Siohban Monaghan (related – cousins) and his younger sister Veronica, (scheduled to begin Hogwarts next fall) Edwin grew to understand the superiority of the wizarding race. As he matured he formed his own opinion regarding the struggle of blood status. Edwin holds no quarrel with half-bloods or muggle-borns for that matter. He simply feels that anyone blessed with magical ability should be trained in the proper use and training. There is not a shred of doubt in his mind that Wizards are superior to Muggles, and thus there is nothing to fear regarding their status in the world. Should there be another war (and he believes that will be inevitable) anyone with magical powers should band together to fight for their existence. Instead of fighting wizard against wizard, he believes there should be an attack against the muggle world to allow the wizards to take their rightful place, at the top. Should the muggles fail to protect themselves in a battle then that is simply nature’s way of cleaning the world of those that are too weak to inherit it.

Veronica Elizabeth Connolly

Nicknames: Ronnie, Young Lady! (her mother says that a lot) Birthdate: September 1st, 1996 Birthplace: Ireland Bloodstatus: Pureblood School: JWA Student Hair: blonde, long Eyes: Green Weight: 110 lbs Height: 5'3" Brief Description: Petite in stature, standing at 5'3", she is naturally athletic, slender with curves in all the right places. She has blonde hair, styled in long layers reaching to the center of her back that falls in a tangle of soft natural curls. She doesn’t spend hours on her looks, often going with the natural look in favor of stealing an extra hour of sleep. Her eyes are blue-grey in color and she has a smile of pure sass. A bit more in depth: Veronica (Ronnie to her closest friends and family) is a bundle of energy with a healthy (some might say too healthy) sense of curiosity. She is a friendly girl and has been known to talk the ear off of anyone who will listen. She tends to view the wold in a very cynical light, mainly because of what she has been exposed to during her youth. Though she likes to stay fit, she isn't opposed to a nice slice of greasy pizza (her favorite thing from the muggle world). She is very secretive at times, keeping her true feelings to herself. Ronnie sees herself as a great spy, often sneaking about to spy on her older brother and her older cousins. Growing up with Liam and Siohban Monaghan (related – cousins) and her brother Edwin, Veronica couldn’t help but feel smothered at times (being the youngest). She was constantly being told she wasn’t old enough to take part in the fun her brother and cousins were partaking in. This would often peak her curiosity, and as such she would spy on them whenever the opportunity arose. It was because of her insatiable need to know what was going on that Ronnie discovered the world of photography. She fell in love with everything to do with cameras, both magical and muggle.

Liam Monaghan

Birthdate: October 31, 1992 Hometown: Dublin, Ireland Bloodstatus: Pureblood Hogwarts House: Slytherin/Fourth Year Hair: Sable Eyes: Chestnut Weight: 190 pounds Height: 6'2" A bit more in depth: Outwardly, Liam holds to the traditional standards of a pure blood, placing little worth on mudbloods and muggles alike; they are inferior in every respect. Secretly, known only to his closest of friends, he is a blood traitor, having no real problem with half-blood witches and wizards, seeing as how Voldemort was a half-blood and was one of the most powerful wizards in recorded history. He does still seem slightly put off by muggle-born witches and wizards, and is confused at how it is possible for non-magical parents to have magical offspring. Privately, he reveres mudbloods with a certain curiosity and fascination, while outwardly maintaining the old pure blood image of such abominations, and any real emotional attachment is very unlikely thanks in no small part to his domineering parents. Liam’s smoldering dark eyes are cold and calculating and can be both unnerving and mesmerizing. He’s cool and confident, even arrogant at times, and his silver tongue can be sharp and sarcastic. Self serving and manipulative. Liam is not above cheating or lying to get what he wants, taking great enjoyment in manipulating people and playing with little girls’ hearts… as well as their unmentionables. He can be very persuasive when he wants to be and is used to getting what he wants. He is very fashion savvy, often preferring muggle fashion to wizarding fashion, though he has been known to mix things up and blaze his own trail on the fashion scene. Prone to narcissistic tendencies, Liam is meticulous in his grooming, placing great importance on cleanliness, personal hygiene, and appearances, though he rarely spends more than a few minutes in front of a mirror admiring his own reflection.

Tyran Monaghan

Birthdate: August 9th, 1991 Birthplace: Ireland Bloodstatus: Pureblood School: Slytherin, 5th year Hair: Chestnut Eyes: Grey-Blue Weight: 195 lbs Height: 6'1"" A bit more in depth: Seemingly quiet by nature, Tyran is what many would assume to be a gentleman. His manners are impeccable, though it is not above him to offer a well place barb. His tongue can be sharp to those he deems unworthy. Tyran has a sense of family loyalty that no one can shake. He is ruthless in his attempts to keep his bloodline pure. If that means breaking up “love” and ruining the life of two people, then so be it. Honor and loyalty must be retained at all costs. To many he appears to be exceedingly polite, and handsome, Where in reality Tryan is nothing short of cruel, arrogant and to a point, quite sadistic.

Darby Monaghan

Nicknames: Darby, Bunny Birthdate: September 10th, 1996 Birthplace: Ireland Bloodstatus: Pureblood School: JWA Student Hair: blonde, long Eyes: Green Weight: 117 lbs Height: 5'3" Brief Description: Darby is the typical pureblood snob. She looks down on those she deems unworthy and is often uncomfortable around those of lessor purity than herself. She has a very dry wit, and has been known to be more interested in the social scene than succeeding academically. However her family holds standards that must be met and so she will knuckle down to study to prevent embarrassing her family name. A bit more in depth: The few who know the real Darby believe she is can be sweet when she lets her guard down. She is very intelligent and is completely self-absorbed and can try to manipulate her family in order to get her way. If that doesn't work she will pout and become very cold. Darby often finds amusement in spreading gossip. She is flirty with some and keeps the truth about her personal life quiet, yet maintains that she is a virgin and is planning to wait until marriage in order to please her family. Though Darby can be very self-obsessed she has had feelings for a few men in her life, developing crushes on her music tutor, each one resulting in hard feelings and each man losing their job at the assistance of her family. Darby was born into one of the wizarding worlds most elite pureblood families to Hannah Monaghan a well-respected socialite, and Riordan Monaghan, (Death Eater now in prison) As Darby came-of-age, she excelled in many academic fields and became fluent in the French and Italian Languages. Darby also mastered the Piano and became known throughout the wizarding community as a role-model pureblood and an inspiration to some of the more traditional parents, (especially Teagan Connolly who often compares Darby to her daughter Veronica).
