IGNATIUS CASSOWARY
24 • Asexual-Demiromantic • HALF-BLOOD • SINGLE SLYTHERIN ALUMNI • OCCLUMENS • Potions Professor
To those who don't know him Ignatius can seem hard to approach. Almost always hiding his emotions behind a mask of neutrality he seems aloof, with little patience for nonsense. These are all learned behaviours from his father and elder brother. Beneath all of that, he is simply trying to figure himself out. He likes stupid jokes and wizards chess and can be open and friendly to friends. It's this side that is harder, but well worth, finding in him. While all this is true he is also highly ambitious. He plans to become an Auror once he leaves Hogwarts after all, and that is nothing but hard work and diligence.
Ignatius has a muggle mother and a pureblood wizard father, both of whom he is fairly close to. His elder brother, however, is his idol and he is desperate to prove himself just as good a wizard as him. He also has a cousin, Sable, to who he writes more often than anyone else.
Once upon a time little Tynan was a happy if quiet child, often sick he didn't seem to grow as quickly as his other siblings. He was well below the normal height parameters for his age, but his parents never seemed to worry about that. Especially since an odd occurrence started at around five years old. Odd incidents where he could do things their other children couldn't. Floating, bouncing after a high fall, and hair growing back after a haircut he didn't want.
No explanation ever came for the family as after a werewolf attack on the family he was taken to a magical orphanage and his sister to a regular Muggle one. This event hardened the sickly youth. Sullen and angry he didn't get along with the other children from the get-go. He became stubborn and argumentative even with the staff. He started fights, stole from the local shops, and often sneaked into places he wasn't supposed to be. These habits have only grown over the years, and now that he's at Hogwarts things will get interesting.

@aweasley || @lachlan Both are the same age and go on the same course (if I’m not mistaken), seeing the legacy that Andy tries to follow from his descendants, could he have tried to convince Lachlan to do some pranks? Although he probably discarded it in the beginning, so he would need someone to teach him the charm of doing pranks. What’s more, I see their personalities are different, so it would be an interesting combination if we put them in a thread together.
@gaetandelamere || NIKLAS FAULKNER I'm seeing that Niklas is a purist. So he could be a potential enemy of Gaetan? He is a muggleborn but does not understand the motives of purists who hate muggleborns, so it would be good to develop a conflict in that area to see what happens.
IGNATIUS CASSOWARY || @corey They both work in the ministry, and they could have interacted with each other. I’m curious to see what happens if we put them both in a thread... Because Benjamin is an open book and his exuberant personality could be a little overwhelming, since Ignatius is quite withdrawn and does not express his emotions compared to Benjamin. Besides, he likes stupid jokes too and has a passion for magical creatures.
MATEO LIDENBROCK || @birdwhistle While at Hogwarts, could they have interacted with each other at some point? And seeing as Soren is a caretaker, maybe he could have turned to him for help on some things? It seems that Soren has had a difficult history but is sensitive, which is Mateo too. Could there be a chance that he could be someone Soren enjoyed his company with? He wouldn’t mind having a cocktail either

@lachlan & Andy While he does have quite the legacy he's not quite on his father's level of pranks, his mother's influence keeps him from doing anything too chaotic. He is friendly and open however and enjoys helping others and does have his mother's brains to go behind him so he's rather a balanced mix of studious and fun-loving. We can definitely throw them together to see how it goes.
@gaetandelamere & Niklas Most definitely a Purist. Learned from his father and perpetuated by meeting Muggleborns who are not terribly nice to him. He is a wallflower, however, and won't be a bully of any sort. It's not likely he and Gaetan will get along so it will be quite a bit of conflict! ^^
@corey & Ignatius I'm sure they have run into one another at least a few times, Ignatius has been working as an Auror trainee for the last three years after all! I think he would be fine with an overly exuberant personality, he has gotten very good at internalizing irritation to be professional with all sorts of people over the years. It would be interesting to see them interact, talking about magical creatures might just be the key to that door haha.
MATEO LIDENBROCK & Soren Do you mean them as students at Hogwarts? Soren graduated a full year before Mateo started school unfortunately so they wouldn't have known each other from then. Soren has been at Hogwarts as a Caretaker for a year and some now (this will be his second year/term working there) so I can see them having met because of a need for something. He has indeed had a pretty rough go of it and does hear voices, he's not terribly stable but he's been doing better lately. I'm not sure about cocktails but we can toss them in a thread and see how things go perhaps?

TYNAN Ó SEIGHIN || @shinta I see them possibly becoming enemies or rivals with how that Potions thread is going. With Ty being his usual self and Shinta not being able to help but interject his thoughts on the matter. Natural enemies. Blood rivals! TO THE BATTLE!
TYNAN Ó SEIGHIN || @lily They're both Slytherin and anti-social from what I can gather, so I don't know if they'd get along or clash. Lily tend to get along with her fellow Slytherins better than any other house at the point so maybe they could be friends/allies/acquaintances?

Ooo, you have some new to your bunch so you know I had to throw in suggestions (:
AMÉLIE CADIEUX | @murphy I see he has purist family roots, such as she, but I also see he is Soren's nephew and part of me wonders if Amelié can be the housemate that tries to point out some of the positives of other blood lines, and people overall. She'd likely be conflicted if he didn't agree with her as she tries to see the good in everyone, and I think a part of her feels responsible for helping to shape the Ravenclaw youth. And whether he is welcome to it or not, I think she would even possibly develop a soft spot/keen bit of protection over him.
BRIAR EMERSON | IGNATIUS CASSOWARY Just wanted to refresh that these two are still acquaintances from school. She hasn't seen him since the war, or even aware of which side he ended up devoting his time for, but I imagine she would be civil if they crossed paths. Awkward and a social idiot, nonetheless, but civil! Perhaps they can develop a friendship too? We can test waters here.
TYNAN Ó SEIGHIN || @shinta Yes, they will argue and go back and forth. Shinta never backs down from a fight.
Tynan || Lily Lily doesn't care about blood purity despite being a Slytherin so she wouldn't care if he's a muggleborn. She tends to respect members of her own house regardless of their blood status so there's a chance they may get along.
@aweasley & AIDEN PINE Thought there could be some potential for friendship here, with similar interests (Quidditch, Muggle connections, some adventurous spirit)? Aiden is hardworking, he doesn't look for trouble but steps up when it finds him, he's courageous and likes everything magical, and is also into Quidditch and is a werewolf (happened early 2023). Happy to plot and plan!
OPEN TO OTHERS Happy to plot for other friendships or acquaintances, too, such as TYNAN Ó SEIGHIN - being a fellow werewolf and such!

AIDEN PINE & Andy We can certainly thread them and see how it goes! Andy is a friendly person overall but not very confident. He doesn't think he can fill his parents' shoes, so he's a tad worried about failure. After Aiden's showboating during their Advanced Flying class it might be a bit difficult, but not impossible!, to win him over xD. I would certainly like to plot and see what happens.
Aiden & Tynan
Tynan is a bit of a hard nut to crack. He has no friends, makes enemies easily, and generally has loner vibes. He steals things from other people rather regularly, putting him at odds with everyone. Having a fellow werewolf be nice to him will likely make him wary at first, but having someone who doesn't mind him being a little gremlin might be nice.

@aweasley & AIDEN PINE Misunderstanding can be fun, especially if it starts as conflict or bad first impressions. Aiden could end up being someone to talk to or confide in, as he's very loyal to friends, and wouldn't gossip or break secrets - he's very Hufflepuff that way. His confidence levels are - clearly - higher than Andy's, so maybe in time there's potential for that to be something to work with? Either way, I'm happy to start out and see where things go. Also to note is that the Advanced Flying post was one of my first, as I was working out Aiden's personality, but now I'm near a dozen in and he's altered a bit. That could make a difference, or not, we'll see!
TYNAN Ó SEIGHIN & AIDEN PINE We could do a thread about the werewolf habitat? Maybe they can get to talking in the space before the full moon, and then interact as wolves, before chatting on the final day? Not sure if that's been RP'd before, I'm new and haven't checked out all the forums, but it could be interesting? Beyond that, it's also totally find if you want to pit Tynan against Aiden, too, to play up his gremlin nature and seek out another target. Happy to go however it goes!
