Here in mighty Slytherin
You'll make your real friends
These cunning folk use any means
To achieve their ends

Lark Faylinn
Featherspy
Cadence "Cat" Kerr
Crimson Ravenwing
Cassandra O'Doyle Ravenwood
Spinele Snape
Brian Stone
Kuraki Yori Yewshimmer
Cassandra O'Doyle Ravenwood
Wand: Nine inches, ivy wood (You know, 'the holly and the ivy ...' heh
heh heh ... Ah, you don't understand me), would be flexible if it wasn't all wonky
and crooked. I don't know what's in it. Could be a piece of grass for all I care.
Magic comes from the mind, not from external sources. It's headology, see? Now
be off wit' ye before I preach some more.
Pet: A particularly nasty old raven named Conall. I'm not saying that he's not imposing, or prophetic, or wiser than any owl I've ever seen (because he'd set about me with his beak), but he is nasty. Jealous, too. Sort of like me in one of my worse moods, except that I don't have a consuming weakness for cheese biscuits.
Quidditch position: **Long silence.** QUIDDITCH? AH HAH HAH HAH HAH! Gasp, sob. I hate Quidditch. Never liked it.
Favorite Hogwarts adult: Professor Flitwick. His classes are always fun. I likes flingin' things across the room. Gets out the ol' Female Adolescent Impulses.
Favorite Hogwarts student: **Blush** Well, there's this ... er ... boy in Gryffindor named Sirius ... And what're you lookin' at me like that for?
Least favourite person at Hogwarts: Too many to list. Far, far too many. (Nae, not you! Whatever made you feel I disliked you?!)
Best subject: Don't make me choose between Defense Against the Dark Arts and Charms! I love them both.
Worst subject: Oh gawds, don't get me started on Arithmancy. I don't know why I took it. I must have been insane.
A little about me: Average height. Round. Brown hair that hasn't been cut since the War (if I was alive during the war). Nearly aquiline nose that I could poke your eye out with. Glasses. I'm told I look rather like a very large cat that's had a shave, but that may just be my unwholesome love of black doing strange things to people's minds.
What about me? ... **Scratches head.**
**Thinks for a moment.**
My, what about me do you need to know? I'm an Aries (born under the sign of Fearn, which I prefer), I like stir-fried vegetables, and I don't even know why I'm at Hogwarts in the first place. My father was British, but my mother is Irish - thus my dual surnames.
Ah, I'm getting into a vein now.
As a rule I whole-heartedly embrace my Irish ancestry and reject my British one. This is possibly because I was raised in Ireland - on a farm between Clifden and Galway on the west coast, in fact. We had one of those obnoxious high-hipped farmhouses, with stone walls that had to be whitewashed every year, and not a man around to do it. The land had gone fallow (since the original occupants, tenants of a poor branch of the O'Connor family, left for Canada in the early 1900s) and was really only decent enough for our two horses, Fiach and Edana. Mam's constantly bemoaning the fact that we're so far away from "civilisation", but I like it here. I despise most of humanity, and feel uncomfortable around the rest of it, so I much prefer our wild, rocky land with the black pines shielding the house from sight, and the icy tarn for bathing in. Possibly the only humans I really feel comfortable around are my best friends (who're in Ravenclaw, no less), Therèse Calleron and An Chin. I wuv them. **Squeeze**
I get caught in the past a great deal, and generally know more about classical and Irish history and mythology than I do about current events (The Beatles who?). My idea of a quaint afternoon's entertainment is to sit under a tree with a massive old book, getting up every now and again to shriek and run around when the wasps get too nosey.
I have a sister named Lilith (three years my elder), and I tend to spell "an"
as "and" when I'm not watching. That's really all you need to know.

Lark Faylinn
Wand: Hazel, 9' 1/3", tough and flexible, with four strands of hair from
the Dryad who lived in the tree my wand came from.
Pet: My cat, Aine, came with me to Hogwarts. She's a dainty little grey
with the most enormous green eyes. Sometimes I think she possesses more than just
normal feline magic...
Quidditch position: I don't really care for sports, but I always thought
that it might be fun to be a Bludger...work out some of that anger. Or maybe...just
to get to legally punt around people you don't like.
Favorite Hogwarts adult: Prof. Dumbledore and Prof. McGonalgall are like
adopted parents to me. They've always helped me in their way and I really idolize
them. There was also something about Prof. Sirius, though...
Favorite Hogwarts student: My best friends are Lee Jordan and Fred and
George Weasley. We all sort of have that, uhm....mischievous nature.
Best subject: I love Care of Magical Creatures and Transfiguration, but
I enjoy all my classes on some level.
Worst subject: Probably Divination. It's not that I can't do it, or that
Prof. Trelawny is, erm...loose a few screws (coughcough) it's that I'd
rather just go about things without knowing the whatever horrible incident
is about to befall me...
A little about me: I'm in the same year as my buddies, Fred, George, and
Lee, but I transferred to Hogwarts at my third year after spending my first two
years learning at an elven magical school. You see, my grandda was a full blooded
High Elf, and according to their customs, my muggle grandmum stayed in the Land
of the Fae with him after they married. That made my mum half elf, and me, a quarter.
Even with a quarter fae in me, I had to learn their ways and magic, but because
my da was a wizard, my mum decided that I needed to come to Hogwarts to complete
that part of my heritage. Woo, it gives me a headache just thinking about it…I
can't imagine what it's doing to you! Heheh, and some people think half
wizards-half muggles are bad! Imagine the people who don't know the difference
between House Elves and High Elves. Real pain in the knickers, if you ask me…
In fact--they don't, because I look like a normal wizard (Thank Titania!).
That part of me does give me an advantage here and there with magic,
but I'm a complete idiot at Muggle studies (Sorry grandmum!) and even simple
wizarding customs (Well, da was not around, so…). The added magical skills make
it even easier for me to help my best friends in their….'fun,' but even better
is the fact that there isn't a student or teacher in Hogwarts that I can't charm.
I like to say that most of it is my amazing personality, heheh…but some of that
'fairy glamour' doesn't hurt at ALL either.
I'm also the only Slytherin who happens to know how to get into the Gryffinddor
common room. Don't look at me that way! Fred and George take me along all the
time. Not that I'd ever tell the other Slys about it. To tell you the truth,
I don't know how I ended up with those bunch of hypocrites. I guess it's some
subconscious, trauma-as-a-kid some sort of muck that doesn't really matter now.
In any case, I usually hang out with students of the other Houses before my
own. It's not that I hate them, or that we don't get along…I just connect with
the others better. Why, don't tell me you thought all Slys were evil…now did
you? innocent-feigning-hurt look Actually, there are a lot of us who
are just as normal as the rest. Well 'normal' as far as students of a wizarding
school can possibly be…

Featherspy , and that's what you can call me
Wand: Giggleroot, a local tree from the deep jungles in Spain where I used
to live, with a hair from a gypsy, my mother
Pet: Well, my familiar is a Talking Mexican Hampster named Max. He is grey
and white, and he is a very rude rodent. I also have a very fat cat named Mancha,
and an invisible dragon that lives in the Forbidden Forest, right Professor B?
Quidditch position: I am a Beater! Give me a big ole piece of wood and
tell me to hit stuff and I am a happy Featherspy!
Favorite Hogwarts adult: Um. I'd have to say Dumbledore, though I am still
a bit suspicious of him. I know he's not dangerous (to me, that is), but still.
He doesn't tell all he knows, does he. Of course, that is the smart thing to do,
isn't it?
Favorite Hogwarts student: Moaning Myrtle. She has real character. She's
really alot nicer than people think. She just wants attention. Oh and Neville
Longbottom is a special favourite, but if anyone says ANYTHING you will find that
your nose is not located where you thought it was!
Least favorite person at Hogwarts: Hmm. Well, I don't particualrly like
anyone, beside the people mentioned above. So basically, I dislike everyone. But
I guess I hate Crabbe and Goyle most of all, those grandes hijos de perras!! Pardon
my french. ^_~
Best subject: Potions. There is something about poison slowly creeping
through veins that is sinister and beautiful. And Potions doesn't require some
lunk head wand twirling, it requires brains.
Worst subject:History of Magic. I wasn't there, therefore it has no effect
on me.
Birthday: January 9th
A little about me: Ah, let me warn you. You asked. ^_^I was born in the
darkest jungles of Spain. My mother was a gypsy, one of the last tribes in all
the world that still roamed free. My father, well, I don't know who my father
is. Could be he was a lost tourist, a drunk sailor. My father could be *you*.
In any event, a dark evil passed over our jungle, and our tribe was killed, and
I was only a month old. My Dear Old Auntie, bless her, was the only one who escaped
that fate. She was not magic and... not quite right. Honestly, my aunt was crazy.
She lived apart from the tribe in her own wagon, and I had been visting her that
night. The next day she brought me back to find a charred, treeless patch, with
scorched bones here and there. So she cared for me until I was nine. I made friends
with the animals (some of them, anyways) and met my familiar (don't ask me how
he got into the Spanish jungles. He won't tell me) I learned the secrets of the
wild. I knew how to do my own brand of magic, which is for me to know and you
to not know. Wand is traditional, and who am I to break tradition? So, one day
when I was nine, Dear Old Auntie had another one of her loca halucinations and
splat, bye bye Auntie. I miss her, of course, that's family. But there's not much
I can do, and I have greived. So I started off, making a journey, followed by
various people who wanted to kill me because I am extremely annoying, I guess.
One summer, when I was 13, I found my way into a wizard street. I was just about
to get into a fight with some snotty British kids when some old man picks me up
and says "Come with me little one" in perfect Spanish, with no accent
at all. So I met Dumbledore. I started school at Hogwarts in my third year, as
Harry was just starting his fourth (time frame reasons) and now I guess I'm going
into forth. Starting school two years late didn't affect me much. I'm still better
at magic than alot of kid my age. Magic is an art, and requires emotion and reason.
It's not just something you're born with and will always have. As to what I look
like, I am short, shorter than average. I have black wavey hair that goes to just
below my shoulders. I don't like mirors so I couldn't say much else about what
I look like, except that my eyes are grey, though sometimes they look very very
dark green (which is odd for a Spanish person. My mom had normal eyes, so I guess
I've got some of dear old dad in me). I don't like people who pick on others simple
because they are small or have a disadvantage. If I don't like something I set
about fixing it to my liking, toobadforeveryoneelse. And if you're wondering how
I can speak English so well, it's a spell I made up and no I'm not sharing.Oh,
and I also like Sailor Moon and Cardcaptor Sakura comics!

Crimson Ravenwing
Wand: it's long and black and jagged on the edges (there really isn't anything special about it)
Pet: I have a white owl named Morgan Le Fey and a black cat named Mordred
Quidditch position: I am absolutely one hundred percent anti-sports, I
do
not play at all.
Favorite Hogwarts adult: Well, umm, I always thought our old DADA
instructor Remus Lupin was kind of good looking, but if you tell anyone
I
will turn you into a frog!
Favorite Hogwarts student: Draco Malfoy- we are old friends
Least favorite person at Hogwarts: Hermione Granger- We have an ongoing rivalry
over
everything, (let me put it this way I feel for her the way my friend
Draco
feels for Potter). And privately, I always thought Mr. Malfoy was
something
of a tyrant.
Best subject: Transformation, Divination, and History of Magic-
because I was bred with a love of history and future telling sometimes
I
feel like I know more than the instructors do.
Worst subject: Potions and Arithmancy. It is because I'm such
a
dunce at potions that Professor Snape doesn't look upon me as
favorably as
other Slytherin.
Birthday: February 17, 1985
A little about me: I am a short red haired female with Irish green
eyes
and pale skin. I am very light for my age, and small looking (though
Draco
jokes that I make up for it by having the world's biggest mouth) I am
very
cynical, dry humored, intelligent and sarcastic.I'm also very
introverted
and secretive. I have a temper that gets the better of me, and have a
reputation for being a "saracastic witch," and "very uptight"
I come from an old wealthy pureblooded wizarding family, practically
next
door to the Malfoys, so I know Draco pretty well.We are not in love,
just
close friends more like a brother and sister. We always argue, but then
make up with each other. We are quite often seen insulting each other,
but
we will defend each other if need be. Our motto is "No one can
threaten
you, except me."
My family is cursed with a dark secret, while the women on my mother's
side
of the family (The Tanwen's), are blessed with strong powers we are
cursed
with insanity(it's a long story). My father took off before I was born,
and
my mother is in an insane asylum. Because of this, my mother was not a
follower of Voldemort (he wouldn't allow it). This history frightens me
a
little.
On the holidays, I live with my Ravenwing grandmother who I do not get
along with.

Spinele
Snape
Wand: 12 inch black and brown. It's kinda old and had bits of unicorn hair and mane. (not that flexible)
Pet: Owl: White with some brown spots and blue eyes.
Quidditch position: I usually just watch. but of all the games i've watched, I've never lost site of the golden snitch yet! (Maybe i should start playing!!)
Favorite Hogwarts adult: Professer Snape(Why? keep reading and find out!!)
Favorite Hogwarts student: Actually, I don't like any student, because no
student really likes me, either!! Or maybe i'm not noticeable enough!
Least favorite person at Hogwarts: Hermoine! please don't ask why, I just don't.
Best subject: Potions
Worst subject: Defense against the dark arts
Birthday: January 1st
A little about me: Hi! I have black short(usually spikey) hair, and forest green eyes! If you didn't already see, my name is Spinele Snape. oh yeah, and i'm a boy! The reason I like snape so much is cuz were related! (I'm not gonna tell you how close though, because it might scare you that Snape can actually fall in love.... oops... I shoulden't have told you that... I should NOT have told you that...) Anyway... I used to attend Evergreen school for magic, but then I transferd to Hogwarts to be closer to snape. I don't really have anything more to say, I've probably bored you enough already! well, Bye!
Back to roll
Kuraki Yori Yewshimmer~
Wand: Silver Birch (flexible, tough), Dragon heartstring, 12 1/4
inches.
Pet: A rook - Niavore
Quidditch position: (*she smirks*) I...have no interest in Quidditch. Truth be
told, it bores me to tears; only thing worse than watching Quidditch is
having to put up with people who PLAY Quidditch. They win one little
match and their heads swell to the size of planets. (*scoff*)
Pfft.
Favorite Hogwarts adult: I don't really have one, actually...unless you count the
Headmaster. I don't really care for him...(a bit too soft, if you ask me)
..but there is a certain air about him that invites respect.
Or maybe that's just the beard.
Favorite Hogwarts student: Well.....(*she suddenly finds it imperative to stare at her
boots*) ...there's a boy in my house group...Severus. He's... (*furious
glare*) *WHAT*? What's so bloody funny?? (*reaches for her wand...*)
Least favorite person at Hogwarts: (*oozes sarcasm with every syllable*) Professor
T-r-e-l-a-w-n-e-y.
What. A. Ridiculous. Old. HACK!! I swear, if anyone ever proves that
woman has a single squirt of sense in her empty, bug-eyed head, I'll eat
my cloak. I swear, I will.
And you can bloody well quote me on that.
Best subject: Potions... . .Potions and Charms.
Worst subject: (*smirk*) If you need ask *that*, you clearly weren't
paying attention when I told you who my least favourite teacher is.
(*contemptuous sneer*) Death omens, my inner eye.
A little about me: (*blinks*) Myself?
Well... I'm leo, 5'4", slim and wiry, with uncontrollable long black
hair, and slanted gold-brown eyes. People say I scowl too much...but they
can go pick blackberries for all I care.
I have a bad habit of crossing my arms, and smirking on one side of my
mouth - or so Trelawney tells me... (*chuckle*)
I *adore* dragons; they're so beautiful... and I practice
*Majitsuhando* - an ancient, non-wand form of magical martial arts. It relies on the
knowledge that the strength of a witch or wizard's magic does *not*
stem from his or her wand - that the wand is in fact, more a tool for
focusing the energies.
People are under the mistaken assumption that I'm a "good listener".
HA! ...which I know for a *fact* that I'm anything but.
If anything I'm introspective, naturally sarcastic, and have a
deep-running malicious streak. Why these damned people should come to *me* with
their annoying problems I have no idea.
Back to roll
Cadence "Cat" Kerr
Wand: Eight and three quarter inches, Juniper, containing four strands
if Kelpie hair. Ollivander was such a nice gent. to let me try all the wands in
his store. That was what I thought till I paid for it!
Pet: Chad. My demented owl. No one in my family knows where he came from,
or where he is going. One fall day he just landed with the paper and did not leave.
He has this problem with nipping but I don't see the problem, those children were
bothering him. Why shouldn't they lose a few fingers to learn to not poke an eagle
owl.
Quidditch position: Beater is my favourite, it is the most amusing to watch.
Especially when the bludger wins.
Favorite Hogwarts adult: Professor Snape has always been amusing with his
antics against the Gryffindor, though I do think I am the only Slytherin he dislikes.
I have enjoyed our run of Defence against the dark arts teachers. Always waiting
too see what the next one turns into.
Favorite Hogwarts student: I have not met many of the students as of yet,
as I have just transferred and they seem to not have noticed the new face in their
classes. I find that not all people seem to fit their house's stereotype but maybe
deep down inside they do. I must admit though I have been amused by the antics
of two red haired twins from the Gryffindor house.
Least favorite person at Hogwarts: I must say, those two buffoons who follow
Malfoy around are getting on my nerves. Always getting in my way, as they seem
to have to stop and ponder before they remember the password. Really, how far
can their money get them when they can't even rub two brain-cells together, between
them?
Best subject: Herbology, then potions, then charms. Really I love all my
classes, Magical creatures really lights up my day. Not to mention Hagrid is such
a sweetie.
Worst subject: Worst? I find my grades to be average. I do get a tad bored
in muggle studies sometimes.
Birthday: November the forth.
A little about me: Average. That is what I am going for. Average does never
stick out and is never pointed out. Average never get kicked out of school either.
I follow my studies and I try to stay away from people. I try anyways. Really
I do. I just tend to drift nearer. Can I help I find people just so... intriguing?
I try to keep my appearance not average but beyond. My hair may fall beyond my
waist in dark red waves but it is always tightly bound back. No, not human red
but the real red of the Seelie court. Ruby with onyx was what my father used to
say. At least when bound it looks black. The spectacles I wear make me seem older,
not more mature, but old. I like it that way. My mother almost had a fit though.
It seems, I am not becoming of a lady. Oh well. My jaw bares my father in its
stubborn line and I have his sprite-like features, always mischief about faces,
there was. Can you see who's little girl I was? It is good there is something
of him left in this world. Because I am sure non-of him rests, still, in my mother's
heart.
She was a Slytherin before me and I am almost sure she was a Death eater. She
has that air to her. Maybe that is why she hates me so much. No, it would never
be her fault for not recognising my departed father as a non-pureblood. My father
would not let me be enrolled in Hogwarts, it is as if he knew I would be sorted
this way. Not that I am evil, just I don't care and I know what I want. Now he
is out of her way, a few accidents happened and I needed a new school. Suddenly
she was all helpful and moved us from my homeland of Ireland to England. Right
where he old school was. Odd that.I try to ignore her letters mostly, but if I
go over a month she tends to send howlers. That draws far to much attention.
I wear my Slytherin badge proudly, if in secret, because pride attracts attention.
It means I truly have ambition, and that, is all you need to make it far in these
darker days. Don' take me wrong, I do have morals but I find sometimes the end
is worth the means of getting there. My means, now, is to avoid trouble. Though
I think I can not hide in the shadows any longer. It would be nice to speak to
someone who does not have feathers.
Who knows what the future holds? I am but a girl in a large school filled with
history and troubles. Each student complicates it more and more. Especially those
in the centre of the power struggle. Like my father always cursed, May you live
in interesting times.
Back to roll
Brian Stone
Wand: 12 inches long, ash, unicorn hair
Pet: A scrawny, little white cat named Margaret... I named her after my
mother. I also have a horned owl named Mr. Who. He was given to me as a gift by
Agatha, my caretaker.
Quidditch position: I always liked watching the game, but I don't have
a favorite position.
Favorite Hogwarts adult: I liked Professor Lupin. Too bad he's gone...
Favorite Hogwarts student: Harry Potter. I really envy him for his bravery.
Best subject: I'm really good at Defense Against the Dark Arts. Kind of
ironic, when you think about my situation...
Worst subject: I'd have to say Potions, because of my clumsiness. I knock
over stuff all the time.
Birthday: October 13th
A little about me: Well, the simple truth of the matter is, I'm cursed.
Cursed with eternal bad luck. I'm not even supposed to be in Slytherin. I just
got put there so Malfoy and his buddies could give me beatings.
Both my parents are dead. I'm a year below Harry. I get a lot of weird looks
from people cause of my albino coloring- You know, white hair and pink eyes.
That's cause of my curse. Thank God it didn't make me a Squib.
