And he's exactly the sort of person that Edward is hiding his heritage from.

Thankies!
Master of the Cliffhanger! Fire Emblem Elibe LP!Interested, will post a sign up.
this sounds like fun
good thing you guys are still on the train otherwise it'd be a bit harder to get a character in that doesnt basically pop up outta nowhere
- NAME: Charlie Clemens
- AGE: 14
- GENDER: Female
- MAGICAL HERITAGE: Half-blood
- HOUSE: Hufflepuff
- YEAR: 4
- APPEARANCE: safebooru image◊
- BACKSTORY:
- Charlie's mother hailed from Dijon, France, and attended Beauxbatons academy, though she never knew this about her mother until she turned 11. In 1995, her mother moved to England to marry a muggle-born wizard who was touring France at the time of their meeting, and she gave birth to Charlie three years later.
- Both her parents died in the year of her birth; 1998, when the Second Wizarding War occurred. From then on, she was raised by her uncle in a rural farmland out in the middle of nowhere. To that end, she grew up completely unremarkable and fairly uninteresting, and had never seen anything out of the ordinary in her life.
- Imagine then, how much discovering she was a witch came as a surprise. Three years later and Charlie is excited for her fourth return to Hogwarts.
- PERSONALITY: A little clumsy but very friendly. Somewhat silly and whimsical. Charlie loves meeting new people, especially outside of her house.
- GIFTS AND ABILITIES: Fairly good at Herbology, Potions, and Care of Magical Creatures, though this is a given considering how she helps out on the farm. Passable at anything else.
- WEAKNESSES: Dreadful at Astronomy and History of Magic, especially remembering dates (she often doesn't even know what day of the week it is).
- OTHER INFO:
- Owns a Chartreux cat named Fido.
- Wand: 11'' pear wood, unicorn core, surprisingly swishy

- Name: William "Mira" Cetus
- Age: 11
- Gender: Male
- Magical heritage Half Blood
- Hogwarts House: Unsorted.
- Year: 1
- Appearance: This, but 11
- Backstory: Mira was born and raised in Wigtown, a wizard ing community in Scotland, to two half bloods, his father a quidditch referee, his mother an Herbologist. Growing up, he would often watch his home team, the Wigtown Wanderers, practice and sometimes compete, and he has developed the goal of joining the Wanderers when he grows up. His family isn't all that special.
- Personality: a fun-loving person, Mira prefers to do things the hard way, and enjoys a challenge above all else.
- Gifts and abilities: Mira is excellent at solving puzzles, and can figure out(and on a few occasions, master) most games on the fly. He is an excellent flyer for his age. Although he hasn't started school yet, he has a well developed knowledge of herbology and potions, thanks to his mother and her associates.
- Weaknesses: Although his parents have tried to get him ahead on Astronomy, he has never been able to make sense of it(although his nickname does come from one failed attempt).
- Other interesting info:
- Has a cat, named Star, which he takes with him everywhere. At home, he has a small dog, named Paws, and several chickens.
- Plays the ocarina.
- He keeps a tiny undetectable pouch with him, that is enchanted to hide a dagger with a dragon-shaped hilt(which breathes fire!)
Both characters are accepted!
Definitely interested.
Now for the question of whether I should make a Slytherin, Ravenclaw, or Hufflepuff...
Victory! Honor! Destiny! Mutton!...You should be a Gryffindor. We don't have any Gryffindors, yet...
I don't like Gryffindors much. Honestly, in my mind it's Slytherin > Ravenclaw/Hufflepuff >>>> Gryffindor.
Victory! Honor! Destiny! Mutton!I was tempted to join as a Gryffindor...an OBNOXIOUS Gryffindor.
I love messing with conventions (although, there would obviously be Jerkasses in that house by the latter books...I sorta stopped at film 5 and book 3...)

Some people say I'm lazy. It's hard to disagree....Do it.
Master of the Cliffhanger! Fire Emblem Elibe LP!Well, currently, we have:
Ravenclaw: 2 Gryffindor: 0 Hufflepuff: 2 Slytherin: 3 Unsorted: 2
So it's pretty even, other than the Gryffindors.
DO IT!

I'm thinking of a Deadpan Snarker, which would be amusing in Hufflepuff, but I also like the idea of a reasonable Slytherin.
Maybe Unsorted for now, and I'll choose later.
Victory! Honor! Destiny! Mutton!...We already have two pretty reasonable Slytherins.
However, I could see a Deadpan Snarker Hufflepuff.

What about a Hufflepuff/Slytherin Hatstall? How that would work, I'm not sure, but it would be amusing.
Victory! Honor! Destiny! Mutton!"Hatstall"?
As in, could go to one of two Houses, and picks one.
Victory! Honor! Destiny! Mutton!Found this on Google.
http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Hatstall.
Some people say I'm lazy. It's hard to disagree., Ah, I see... Nor sure why that would be necessary for a snarky Hufflepuff, but sure!
Not necessary, but a way to shoehorn Slytherin traits into a Hufflepuff without it seeming too... weird.
Victory! Honor! Destiny! Mutton!Ah, I see.
I agree with deathpigeon; we do need more Gryffindors in the game. But at the same time, forcing someone to play a character from a particular house would kill some of the enthusiasim.
@Crewe: You don't have to be a Gryffindor if you don't want to. And I like the idea of a Hufflepuff/Slytherin hatstall very much. Come to think of it, ambition and hard work walk hand-in-hand with one another.
@Justa: Yes! Great idea for a Gryffindor character!
