JULIAN MULCIBER
15 | SLYTHERIN | SINGLE
Julian Mulciber is educated, resourceful and extremely adaptable. He was born and raised in his families self-inflicted exile in Strasbourg, France, following the naming and shaming of his grand-uncle as an active Death Eater many years prior. He has thus lived a quiet life, closely guarded and watched over by his family.
As the heir, Julian has had every opportunity provided to him - bar the fact that he was not permitted to mix with Muggleborn or half-blood children. This severely hindered his friendship prospects growing up, meaning he spent a LOT of time alone, which he came to prefer. He was, too, brought up amongst practitioners of the Dark Arts with extremist ideologies and thus has a very skewed idea of right and wrong.
He attended Beauxbaton for the first two years of schooling, though following the death of his mother and subsequent falling apart of his immediate family, Julian transferred to Hogwarts for his third year. As he was very close to his mother, Julian took her death hard and is still very much in isolated mourning.
He is afraid of letting anyone get close to him for fear of losing them like he did his mother, and therefore prefers to keep others at arms length. This is his defence mechanism but truly deep down Julian does seek connection.
Julian is a disconnected individual, but see's value in honesty and loyalty above much else. He isn't fazed by cruelty or meanness, and is attracted to individuals who challenge him. He is largely desensitized to physical pain - as he has experienced anguish of a different kind: the physical is a welcome distraction.
Now rather settled at Hogwarts, he has attained several allies of worth, and is a co-founder and mentor within the secret Dark Arts Club.

Taken as a baby from his fathers Manor, Magnus was raised in a single-mother household in a relatively poor, rough neighbourhood in St Petersburg, Russia. He has never known his father, and although he questioned where the man was a lot during his youth - he learned not to ask questions after many rejected attempts to find anything out about the man.
Bullied relentlessly at Durmstrang for being an outsider of no pureblood name during his first year, Magnus grew to resent his parentage, particularly his father for abandoning them (or so he believes). It did not take long for Magnus to snap and fight back, frequently brawling with his bullies, using dirty tactics to get the advantage when outnumbered. Joining an underground fighting ring, he utilized his Animagus form (large black bear) against other predatory animals to earn money for himself and his mother to keep them afloat.
Very clever, Magnus graduated with high marks, particularly in transfiguration and dark arts. He is also an accomplished pick-pocket, which eventually garnered the attention of law enforcement.
Head-hunted several years after graduation, Magnus joined the MOM as part of the Magical Law Enforcement Squad, where he flourished, eventually moving into the Auror Department, training as an Occlumens.
He is not opposed to utilizing dark magic in his position - believing only with its use can he really understand how to counter such magic - and is such an avid practitioner.

Hey there! So glad to see a purist Slytherin character, my favourite kind xD
As a pureblood and Prefect, MAEVE THORNE would probably feel it's her duty to guide Julian. She transferred from Durmstrang in her 4th year, so she knows how confusing it can be trying to figure out who is who at a new school. His family name would also carry some weight, since her own father sympathized with Voldemort and she has similar ideals. Maeve is into Dark Arts (she practices them secretly in the Room of Requirement and at home during holidays) and dueling (club leader, last year's tournament winner). If he is into those activities, she could become his mentor. Obviously, this would be pulling him deeper into purist ideologies (bwahaha!). Oh, and she values intelligence & ability above all else - Julian being intellectually inclined would mean they'd get along well. What do you think?

Hi!!
Amazing! I am so very keen to have Julian to have a very fractured moral compass. Would Maeve being a Slytherin Prefect perhaps mean that she might have been allocated to assist Julian in his transfer and subsequent welcome to the school (and just a check in every now and then)? Because if that is the case then we could definitely have them meet in that manner? It would be wonderful having someone who can understand the complexities of coming from a completely foreign place and not really having any bearings.
Julian is also into Dark Arts, and has been introduced to the subject at home, so that is definitely something they might bond over. As for duelling - it isn't something he has really thought about - but if it is mentioned to him, I am certain Julian would be interested in upping his skills for later purposes > So it would be great to have a super skilled mentor in that category.
I appreciate you responding to my post! MAEVE THORNE

JULIAN MULCIBER | MAEVE THORNE Yes, I think it's entirely possible that school staff would have asked Maeve to show Julian around. We could have a thread set either right after the Start-of-Term Feast or the next day, where she approaches him for the first time. They could eventually start talking about their hobbies/interests/education, which in time might encourage Maeve to tell Julian about her secret training sessions and invite him to join her. I can start a thread for them, if all that sounds fine?
JULIAN MULCIBER | DOMHNALL MCEVOY I just realized that these two will be dormmates, since they're both third-years. Don is a Muggleborn (got sorted into Slytherin while the Sorting Hat was missing, haha) and a prankster, plus not especially bright in academics due to laziness and distractibility. I doubt they will get along very well, though I imagine Don will try to befriend Julian from time to time - in annoying ways, too. We could show their interactions in class threads once you start posting there? The two would attend mostly the same ones, except for a few electives.
Last Edit: Nov 12, 2023 14:32:18 GMT -5 by MAEVE THORNE
Oooh being a Muggleborn is going to be tough, but could also be a bit of fun. Julian is never going to be outright blood purist at school (for now, anyway) - he's a bit more socially aware than that, and cautious about making any unnecessary waves. So having someone try to befriend him repeatedly that he really wants to keep away from is actually hilarious lmao. Classes would be a fanstastic way that they could be paired up to work together (so no escaping haha)!

JULIAN MULCIBER | ROSE WEASLEY Maybe a follow up thread after their first meeting in the Astronomy tower? Might be interesting to have them meet up now, and perhaps with some more context as to their families which may affect how they act around one another. He may also still be mad at her about the Halloween prank (if he knows she was also involved, but by this point I would expect it to be pretty common knowledge).
JULIAN MULCIBER | ILONA KYLLI ROWLE I'd be curious to see Julian interact with Ilona. Her family is from a long line of blood purists, and one of her ancestors was also a death eater, so perhaps Julian would know of her family? Her father is a diplomat currently stationed abroad in Turkey, and her mother is from a Hungarian pureblood family and is currently a professor at Durmstrang, although Ilona was disowned by her family when she was 13 so has no more contact with them. She is also somewhat friendly with Maeve, although that is a newer thing, and I know Maeve herself has been a bit unsure about Ilona's character in the past. Maybe Julian tries to get to know her in an attempt to get an idea of her belief system? Honestly I'm open to any ideas.
Brilliant idea! I imagine the Julian Mulciber that Rose met at the Tower that particular evening is slightly different to the one roaming about now. During those posts, he was new to the school, still reeling from his loss - and did not know who Rose was, or her family name. I imagine since that meeting he has become more knowledgeable on her background and would therefore know she isn't quite a pureblood. So this could be a grating point for him. As for the Halloween prank: oh yes, he'd be rather irked by the entire ordeal - but he is also the one that tipped Maeve off as to who the culprit was - so he has experienced some revenge for it already >=)
Oh NO WAY. I've totally interacted with Levi's Henri Rowle but hadn't made the connection - you are totally right. Thorfinn Rowle. Julian is currently strangely interested in her younger brother - which may bring her attention to him from her as he's not exactly the type of person that she might want her brother interacting with? So theres potential there for a thread! I also know Ilona is clever and well-read, as well as looking for a cure for lycanthropy - so her interest in curing curses is one that Julian also secretly chases (not lycanthropy exactly, but dark curses in general).
As with her disowned status - would that have been huge news for Pureblood society? If so, then yes, perhaps Julian had heard some scandal occurred when he was younger with her family - though he may not realise the girl before him is the cause of all that until she mentions it (if at all). As she's a pureblood though, he would initially be less rude to her, and more open to the prospect of collecting another ally, if they get along, that is haha. Her budding friendship(?) with Maeve is certainly a way to have him interested!

ROSE WEASLEY | JULIAN MULCIBER Yes definitely! And Rose would probably have found out more about him and his reputation from Don, and so would have a very different opinion of Julian as well. So, how should we play this? Another random encounter, but this time with more animosity? I feel like Julian wouldn't confront her directly about the prank, but she might if she found out he was making Don's life difficult in the dorm?
ILONA KYLLI ROWLE | JULIAN MULCIBER Oooh Ilona would definitely be concerned with him hanging around Henri. Particularly after the events of the summer (the whole coup in the pack) I can see her being overly protective, and worried about any influences leaning him towards the dark side due to his desire for revenge. So maybe Ilona subtly confronts him in the common room one day, just asking what he's doing with her brother, but trying not to voice her concerns too obviously?
As for the family stuff, I always pictured that they tried to keep it quiet because her parents didn't want to admit that they had a werewolf for a son, but obviously their kids disappeared suddenly so it may have been whispered about among pureblood circles. Since then her parents have had two new kids to "replace" them, so maybe Julian would know the two younger Rowle siblings?
Ahh yes! I know Don and Rose are quite close - so its definitely likely Julian would kind of have a bad reputation with the both of them. He doens't outwardly display his displeasure with muggleborns at the school - he just ignores them, believing they are not worth his time. So in terms of making Don's life difficult: he doesn't interact with either of his roommates at all - he keeps very much to himself in his corner of the dorm (he sleeps the farthest from them), is very minimal in what he owns, is super clean and doesn't leave anything in view of them - so its really like he doesn't live there during the term at all. Frankly, Don probably hasn't even heard Julian speak - outside of him talking to other people in class or whatnot. However, now that its been some time at the school, its definitely likely she knows the kind of person he is and that he's not really fond of befriending muggleborns.
I'd love to have another random encounter (another after-curfew?) - we could have one on the seventh floor - Julian has taken to utilizing the room of requirement more often, and it happens to be on the same floor as the Gryffindor common room so they definitely could run into one another there? Otherwise we can definitely make up a situation to push them together haha
edit: I've just realised these are in completely different wings so this wouldn't work. Perhaps they could have an encounter somewhere by the hospital wing - since this is in the same wing as the Gryffindor common room, though a few floors down? Or in the hospital wing? He's been by his cousins side every day since she was admitted.
Wahoo! Protective big sister on the way xP For sure, a confrontation would be great! Julian would be so confused haha - but he would eventually appreciate her protectiveness - as a big brother himself he would understand. I apologize in advance if he reacts prickly to her coming at him about it though. Gotcha, so if it was just whispers then perhaps he's not completely aware of it - he might know of Nico and Aurelia Rowle - but they are much too young for him to interact with. As I haven't had him react too much to Henri being a Rowle, I am going to assume the families' don't really have a history - other than Julian being aware that its a Pureblood family and therefore respecting Ilona more for it.

Howdy!
HEIRANS BAUGMARTNER // JULIAN MULCIBER I’ve never seen them interact directly at all. And from the impression they had in class, they could have been on bad terms. But I’ve been thinking that we could try to build a possible friendship between them, because I read that Julian values honesty and loyalty. I think I’ve seen that Julian may have some negative connections. I’m thinking, what if we can use Heirans to be the positive connection he needs in his life?
They definitely have started off on the wrong foot in the class thread haha - so Julian is immediately going to be standoffish to Heirans haha. I do know that you've plotted with LEVI HILFIGER to have the two be close friends - so its likely that Julian is aware of this friendship - at least peripherally? Perhaps we can have them call an almost truce due to both of them being close to Hilfiger, which could open the way to the two slowly beginning to get along? I apologize in advance as it is going to take Julian a while to warm up to him, befriending him is like walking on eggshells a lot of the time!
But you are indeed right -- Julian very much values honesty and loyalty. He would respect someone who encompasses both traits, even though he might not like them, if that makes sense.

JULIAN MULCIBER, Don’t apologize for it! Understandably it will be hard for Julian to open up to a new person. Perhaps in the way you have suggested, Levi being a kind of reason why they could have come to a truce to be respectful and behave with neutrality. Could there be a plot twist when Julian discovers that Heirans has the values he considers respectable and that he can really see the good person he is? (Naturally, he tends to be bratty with Bastian, so I hope that doesn’t confuse the idea about his xD personality), which contrasts the expected character of a prefect because he loves to argue or simply have no excuses to bring out his most rebellious side. Which will be really interesting to see how this develops.
Definitely! He's not a very open person in general - even with Levi - though he's been trying to make some strides in that regard (re: current thread of them at Levi's holiday home). But yes, if Heirans is also close to Levi, Julian might be more approachable, and if given the chance to demonstrate his honesty and loyalty - its even more likely he'll slowly come around to accepting his presence.

Haha makes sense! It's just the bonding how it works between two people. I'm up for having a thread with Julian and Heirans, but also another with Levi included! Maybe the 1vs1 could be after the class and there's some... Tension around?
