B: Boggart - What is your character's greatest fear? What would their boggart be? What is the reason for this?

His biggest fear is the death of loved ones. Watching anyone in his family die before his eyes would surely kill him. The boggart that would get to Evan the most would be the corpse of one of his siblings or his parents. The vision would devastate him beyond anything, and it would most likely send him on a warpath. Most recently Kaydence’s figure would be amongst those who he’d never want to see dead. That alone would probably be ten times worse than any death in his family. Evan, despite his cold exterior, is a very family oriented person. He lives to gain power and money in order to take care of his parents and siblings. If anything was going to make him unstable it would be the boggart form of the above.

E: Mirror of Erised - What does your character desire most in this world? Why is that? Are they aware that this is what they most want or would they be surprised by this?

It isn’t a secret that Evan wants to be powerful and wealthy. If he were to look in the mirror of Erised he’d see himself surrounded by galleons with onlookers bowing at his feet. It sounds quite cocky, but Evan had been nothing but cocky his entire life. He is more than aware that this is what he would see if he were to look at his inner most desires. He doesn’t keep it a secret from himself or anyone else for that matter. The difference between his desires and many other peoples is that Evan has the ambition to actually make it happen. Soon it wont be a desire because it will be reality.

D: Dementor - What would they relive under a Dementor's gaze? Their worst memory. How does this affect them today, if it does?

Under the dementors gaze Evan would relive the only moment in his life that he was truly terrified. He had been seven years old and his younger brother five. They had been playing in the small wooded area behind their old estate in Canterbury when Regan was taken by some hideous creature and whisked off into the woods. Evan, being to far away from their house to yell anything, took off after his brother in the pursuit of saving his life. It wasn’t until he felt the cold hands of another creature wrap around his own neck. Staring down into the eyes of death, well a vampire, Evan tried his best to break free from the things grasp. Unfortunately he was too small, and hearing his brothers screams from a few feet away only added to his fear.

Fortunately enough his sister Mellanie had been playing with Cleary at the edge of the woods and ran to get their father when they heard Evan yell. His father was severely injured during the brief fight with the vampires, but they quickly left when his father threatened to shrink the trees with his wand. The sun would have surely killed them. Standing by his fathers side, Evan will never forget the look of pain that swam in his fathers eyes. Of course the man stated that his only concern was his sons, and passed out after that. For those few moments that passed before his mother arrived Evan was sure that his father was dead. Even though he awoke three hours later in their estate Evan had sat in the corner of the room in a state of shock for the entire time. It is one of those moments he will never forget.

P: Patronus - What would protect them? Remember, this should be an animal.

There are two animals that Evan is convinced his Patronus would turn into if he ever felt the need to use the spell. The one that he is almost sure it would be is the Vulture. Evan is always waiting for the weak to come along so he can pick them off. He enjoys nothing more than watching and waiting for others to lower their guard before going in for the kill. The other animal it might be, though he isn’t too convinced on this one, is the fox. Mostly because it’s his favorite animal. After all the fox is crafty just like he is.

[Centara Zealon]

B: Boggart - What is your character's greatest fear? What would their boggart be? What is the reason for this?
Centara’s greatest fear would be the sun. If she were to see a boggart, it would automatically change into a vision of the sun. The reason for this is obvious, she’s a vampire and they immediately burst into flames once the sun touches their skin. The only reason she can be found out in the sun occasionally is because her brother came up with a vampire’s bane potion that can protect her from the sun.

E: Mirror of Erised - What does your character desire most in this world? Why is that? Are they aware that this is what they most want or would they be surprised by this?
Cen desires to be one of the top people in the world. She wants to be most popular and one of the strongest vampires alive because she feels as if that’s what can make her happy. She’s never set down with an actual boyfriend so she doesn’t know what a relationship is like. If she did, her idea of what she desires most would most likely change for the better. She knows what her desire is because she’s constantly trying to achieve it but if her desire did change, she knows it would be a good thing for herself and the people around her. But, no matter what, she will always try to shoot for this goal.

D: Dementor - What would they relive under a Dementor's gaze? Their worst memory. How does this affect them today, if it does?
The dementor would probably make Cen relive the moment she was sired, that being her scariest younger memory, or else the point where her and Markus found her sister dead on the ground. Centara’s siring was the scariest moment when she was a child but to this day, she actually enjoys the moment most of all because it gave her the life she loves. She does hate the exact moment because of the pain but besides that, she’s perfectly fine with the event. As far as her sisters death, she still hasn’t gotten over it since it was a recent event. But, even though it was recent, the event hasn’t ruined her life completely. She’s still holding herself together well. Seeing it again due to a dementor may just be the reason why her life gets ruined.

P: Patronus - What would protect them? Remember, this should be an animal.
The animal that Centara’s patronus would take the form of is a small fox. The reason for this is because she’s a tricky girl who can slip through anything and is a dementor attacks, then all she would have to do is use her fox to slip her through the mess. Foxes are strong, slick, and cunning, everything Centara is.

[Ashton Wentworth]

B: Boggart - What is your character's greatest fear? What would their boggart be? What is the reason for this?

Georgie with another guy, it's hypocritical but he can't stand the thought of her with anybody else even though it's something he does.

Loss. It would just be a great black open abyss. Then he wouldn't have anything, not even himself.

E: Mirror of Erised - What does your character desire most in this world? Why is that? Are they aware that this is what they most want or would they be surprised by this?

His parents, everybody deserves to know where they came from, he wants to know who they are, what they do, weather he's pure blooded or not. The mirror would show him in front of a great house, full of money and alcohol, and his parents in front of him on their knees, begging his forgiveness.

He already has the house full of Alcohol and all the money that he needs and he had learned that he couldn't care less about his parents. He has his own small family and that is more than enough for him. It would show him with a family, they would just be figures without faces for now, since he doesn't have a clue who he's going to end up with at this point in his life, but he would be surrounded by no less than three children. It's a deep, deep down desire but he wants a real family, with children of his own to take care of. The loss of his fetus' made him realize that.


D: Dementor - What would they relive under a Dementor's gaze? Their worst memory. How does this affect them today, if it does?:

Warren being sent off to Rehab and himself all alone, moving out on his own, and wondering where he was going to sleep at night.

He would relive a few memories, Georgie allowing herself to die, the news of his almost children dying or the news that his mother had died.


P: Patronus - What would protect them? Remember, this should be an animal.

A cheeta, the fastest animal in the world. Because it's a strong dominant creature who's not afraid of taking control if needed, much like Ash.

No, actually it's the same.

[Erich Griesser]

B: Boggart - What is your character's greatest fear? What would their boggart be? What is the reason for this? Erich’s greatest fear is the opposite sex so it is obvious that his boggart would be a girl, specifically a lustful, overly enthusiastic one with prides herself on being a fangirl of his. As stated earlier, no one knows why Erich is so afraid of girls. That hasn’t stopped them from coming up with wild rumors though. The real truth is that there is no exact reason for his fear. There’s just something about them that makes him nervous and uneasy. Nothing has ever happened between him and one of them, besides the fact that several have attacked him because of his looks, but there’s really no pinpointed answer. He’s just scared of them.

E: Mirror of Erised - What does your character desire most in this world? Why is that? Are they aware that this is what they most want or would they be surprised by this? It would be no surprise that if Erich looked into the Mirror of Erised he would see himself engulfed in a massive bed with the most comfortable blankets and fluffy pillows on the entire planet. He’d be completely aware of this being what he wanted most since he loves sleeping more than being a recluse and insulting people. To him, there’s nothing better than falling asleep for hours all thanks to warm blankets that just wrap themselves around him and pillows that allow his head to sink into them.

D: Dementor - What would they relive under a Dementor's gaze? Their worst memory. How does this affect them today, if it does? If Erich had to relive something under a Dementor’s gaze he’d recall the time when he was eight years old and was forced to go to Azkaban wizarding prison with his mum and dad to visit his uncle. His uncle had been wrongfully accused of a crime and had asked for his mum and dad to come and bail him out. Finding that they were unable to locate a babysitter for their troublemaking eight year old, his parents were forced to take him along. From the moment he stepped into the prison Erich was instantly filled with an inexplicable cold. Shivers ran up and down his spine with every step he took. His father had made sure to cover his eyes as they walked, but that did nothing to prevent the mental images he was getting in his mind. He could feel the ice hit him like daggers as they passed dementors which only made things worse. Just as they were turning a corner to his uncle’s hallway, Erich accidentally wandered off to the side into the grip of a wailing prisoner. The prisoner held on to him tightly making Erich unable to escape until his father came to his rescue. Ever since then he’s refused to go anywhere near the place or refused to talk about the incident.

P: Patronus - What would protect them? Remember, this should be an animal. Erich’s patronus would, without a doubt, be a sloth since the animal exemplifies laziness.

[Avery Rowe]

B: Boggart - What is your character's greatest fear? What would their boggart be? What is the reason for this?
Avery's greatest fear would be her, sitting at a desk job with frizzy grey hair and wrinkles all over her face. It would be her boring and alone, old doing something that she hated. She can't stand to be boring and she hates being lazy so her doing all of those things would symbolize to her that she had failed. It would mean that she had become all of the things that she hated.

E: Mirror of Erised - What does your character desire most in this world? Why is that? Are they aware that this is what they most want or would they be surprised by this?
If Avery were to look into this mirror, she would see herself the Minister of Magic, holding the Quidditch world cup. Wearing nothing but designer labels and money pouring out of her pockets. To her, this would be her successful, having accomplished everything that she can do and then some. Of course, once she were to reach this position she would want to try for something else, if in fact, there is anything higher besides world domination. If she were Minister, she could turn the Wizarding community into anything that she wanted and nobody would be able to say or do anything about it.

D: Dementor - What would they relive under a Dementor's gaze? Their worst memory. How does this affect them today, if it does?
Her brother walking away from her. Deep down, she does love her family but she loves her reputation more. She hated that he found out what she was saying about him and reliving it would make her feel all of those feelings again and then some. The fake smiles on thanksgiving, the forced present giving on Christmas, all of it just made her feel like the scum of the earth because she knows that he doesn't want to be near her. Her pride won't allow her to apologize to him and of course their parents aren't the wiser to their little spat. It's the only fight that they have ever had.Avery needs others approval, and knowing that she doesn't have her brothers approval, somebody that she loves and admires kills her.

P: Patronus - What would protect them? Remember, this should be an animal.
A honeybadger because it's an attractive small animal, with a lethal side. Nobody really likes a HoneyBadger

[Deleted]

B: Boggart - What is your character's greatest fear? What would their boggart be? What is the reason for this?

Tristan’s greatest fear is losing one of his family members. Greeks families are some of the biggest in the world, but have special bonds as result of growing up and spending their lives together. With that said, his boggart would probably be an injured family member on the brink of death. The thought of it alone horrifies him.


E: Mirror of Erised - What does your character desire most in this world? Why is that? Are they aware that this is what they most want or would they be surprised by this?

Family is the most important thing to Tristan. In the mirror, he would see himself surrounded by a wife and lots of children, hopefully at least five while he was still young. He has been raised to understand that family is one of the most important things in the world. He wants to be the father that his own father is and help keep the Stavros name alive for generations to come. Tristan has known he has wanted a big family from a young age so the reflection in the mirror wouldn’t surprise him at all.


D: Dementor - What would they relive under a Dementor's gaze? Their worst memory. How does this affect them today, if it does?

All in all, Tristan has been fortunate to have a problem free life. The worst memory that would come back would be the time his older sister Ioanna came home bruised and battered. Her former boyfriend had abused her after getting angry with her for something or other. He had never felt so helpless and so angry as he stood there watching his sisters and mother take care of an inconsolable Ioanna. He got his revenge on the scumbag not too long after, but the memory still haunts him to the day. He never wants to see any of his family members injured or hurt, especially not on the verge of dying.


P: Patronus - What would protect them? Remember, this should be an animal.

Tristan’s Patronus would be a horse. Not only because it reflects the love of his country, but horses are swift, strong and reliable creatures, traits that Tristan sees in himself. They can carry others long distances and are effective in battle which he undoubtedly knows he could do.

[Harland Burrows]

B: Boggart - What is your character's greatest fear? What would their boggart be? What is the reason for this?

The muggle version of the Roadrunner from the cartoons. He was tormented with a plush version of this toy by his brothers whenever he was a child, memories that he doesn't like to relive.

E: Mirror of Erised - What does your character desire most in this world? Why is that? Are they aware that this is what they most want or would they be surprised by this?

Himself, as the lead reporter to the Daily Timestopper, wearing medals of recommendation from all of his hero's and a particular bubbly blond woman at his side.

D: Dementor - What would they relive under a Dementor's gaze? Their worst memory. How does this affect them today, if it does?

His father kicking his mother out of the house and tossing her down the stairs while she was still pregnant with his sister. Along with the memories of her gone and them having to live alone.

P: Patronus - What would protect them? Remember, this should be an animal.

Harland's Patronus would be a gopher. It is a family animal to them, and is the prominent creature on their family crest. Most of the members of a Burrows family have gophers as their patronus.

[Deleted]

B: Boggart - What is your character's greatest fear? What would their boggart be? What is the reason for this?

Malachai would never admit it, but his greatest fear is Darren Morgan, the Dark Lord. He fears what the man is capable of. This fear only comes from his young son Blaine. In his opinion, there is no one else that could harm Blaine then Morgan. He is terrified that if the Dark Lord is made aware of his son’s existence, then he would seek the young boy out and use him to get to Malachai. Since he is a member of the Order now, he expects Morgan to have a vendetta against him. Malachai wouldn’t know what to do with himself if his son was ever taken or harmed in any way.

E: Mirror of Erised - What does your character desire most in this world? Why is that? Are they aware that this is what they most want or would they be surprised by this?

His son. Blaine is Malachai’s only reason for living. Malachai has known this from the moment he accepted Blaine as his son. His son’s upbringing was eerily similar to his own. However, Blaine managed to keep a quiet and shy demeanor while hiding a big heart underneath, which Malachai was incapable of having as a child. He strongly feels that his little boy deserves everything he never had and then some. He wants to get Blaine back from the Ireland Ministry of Magic, move away to some secluded location with his son and live the rest of his days watching the boy grow up.

D: Dementor - What would they relive under a Dementor's gaze? Their worst memory. How does this affect them today, if it does?

Being taken from Blaine is the worst memory of his life. Although he still gets to see Blaine at least once a week, Malachai will never be able to get the image of his crying toddler, arms stretched towards his father, being carried away by a social worker. The last time he had felt that helpless had been when he was younger and with his parents. Vulnerability is something Malachai refuses to feel. With this memory, it pushes him to continue with getting himself on the right track to prove his worth to the government and to get Blaine back sooner rather than later.

P: Patronus - What would protect them? Remember, this should be an animal.

Malachai isn’t a fan of animals, but he figures his Patronus would probably be a snake. They’re quiet creatures who wait for the right moment to bite and attack. Snakes are fine when they aren’t bothered but once they are they become vicious fighters. They are cold-blooded and can stand frigid climates. Malachai was often sent to remote and cold locations across the world under the reign of Adrian Morgan because of his ability to stand the extreme temperatures without issue.

[Don Melvyn]

B: Boggart - What is your character's greatest fear? What would their boggart be? What is the reason for this?


Don's Boggart will turn into a roaring fire, because Don has had a bad experience with fire. He played with a match when he was younger and he managed to set his house on fire. His sister couldn't escape the house in time.



E: Mirror of Erised - What does your character desire most in this world? Why is that? Are they aware that this is what they most want or would they be surprised by this?


Don would see himself saving his sister from their burning house. It is because he feels guilty for causing the fire that killed his sister. Don will be mildly surprised because he suppresses the memory and seldom thinks of his sister. He would have expected something which is a more current influence.



D: Dementor - What would they relive under a Dementor's gaze? Their worst memory. How does this affect them today, if it does?


Don will relive the only thing in his life which he truly regrets. He'll hear his sister crying and the sound of ambulances and firetrucks, while seeing flashes of a fire devouring his house. And just like years back, he'll be frozen in place- too scared to run or help.

This has been the cause of Don's sleep deprivation, even if he refuses to admit it. It also caused Don to go out looking for himself.



P: Patronus - What would protect them? Remember, this should be an animal.


Don's patronus is a dog.
It is his favourite animal and Don has heard countless stories where dogs offer up their own lives to save their owners. 

[Michkayela Drakonas]

B: Boggart - What is your character's greatest fear? What would their boggart be? What is the reason for this?

Micha has a good many fears, mostly rational- at least what she considers rational. She can usually avoid getting too deep into those fears and allowing them to affect her though, usually. When she was younger she considered what her boggart might be and had come to the conclusion that the most rational would be the face of her grandmother, disappointed. That, however, is not what she actually saw the first time she came against one. Herself. Staring into her own face, with the lines of aging, dressed in one of her grandmother's pantsuits. It shouldn't have been as frightening as it was. She looked well taken care of, her clothing was of the finest cut- it was her eyes that bothered her. The same cold, calculation that colored her grandmother's gaze. She had, in essence, become her grandmother, just as her inheritance intended. 

E: Mirror of Erised - What does your character desire most in this world? Why is that? Are they aware that this is what they most want or would they be surprised by this?

It is, unsurprisingly, directly opposite that of her boggart. Herself again but in more comfortable clothing, oil stain on her cheek and a grin on her face, looking over her shoulder laughing. Happy- she was happy. She wouldn't be surprised, it's something she's thought a good deal about in her spare time the past two years especially. 

D: Dementor - What would they relive under a Dementor's gaze? Their worst memory. How does this affect them today, if it does?

Micha's visited Azkaban before. On more than one occassion. Walked through the halls and felt the crushing weight that being around those weights brings about a person's psyche. Her grandmother's training, hours of dealing with her worst fears and being forced to repeatedly face them- she's well aware what hinders her and what could be used against her. There are very few thoughts she's allowed to keep to herself. Very few things she's kept within her own brain and left only to her. The greasy hands and open mouth upon her don't seem like much. In the grand scheme of things they aren't. Happened regularly but never escalated and for that she should be thankful- is thankful. Doesn't think about it most days. Tries to avoid the raised lines on the insides of her thighs as reminder. It's silly. She knows it is, for that to be the memory that comes to the forefront of her mind- a mirage of images that flash through in quick succession.... 

P: Patronus - What would protect them? Remember, this should be an animal.
A panther. Yes she's aware she actually has one. It has always been her favorite animal, from the first time she saw the shadowed imprint of black that lined the stones of the deeper recesses of Drakonas estate. That one shadow. Stuck with her, ignited her interest.
