It was a dreary September night in a small town in the south of England. An American man was taking a walk inside a huge mansion trying to find a bathroom. Suddenly, he heard a thump in a room nearby. The American rushed over to the room in which he heard the noise, only to find an old man on the floor and no one else around. After a few moments, the man realized that the old Wizengamot Warlock he’d talked to earlier was dead. “Help!” he cried, running out into the hallway…
Alright, so my sister tried this plot out a while ago but never really got it going, so she gave me permission to try it out myself.
So, the plot goes like this:
One day, all the characters receive identical letters reading:
Text Cut: letter
To Whom it May Concern:
Your presence is required at the Aeron Mansion immediately. Details upon arrival.
Thank you.
So of course everyone shows up. But when they get there, they only find each other. They begin to share stories, trying to figure out who sent them there and what they want. When the old Wizengamot judge is found dead, the Auror begins to get suspicious. Who killed the judge? Who sent them here? Who will create friends and who will create enemies?
So, characters may only come from the list I post. There may be secrets between characters, so I will PM everyone telling them what they need to know. And I will inform the person “whodunit.” This will be played similar to a murder mystery game. Other than that, it is all up to you guys!
Character List:
the old Chief of Security for the Minister of Magic: Aria Boleyn- LunaLovegood5
the single woman: Rhonda Kennedy James- samthehpfreak
the Unspeakable: Darcy Violet Hawthorne- peaches_11
the St. Mungo’s worker: Snape'sGirlThru&Thru
the married man: Alec Houston- Mordanyes
the Italian: Adele Macaria- city_girl_95
the American: xiiWishiWasYours
the Belgian: De France- Herminny
the Auror: Liam Keiran Gussow- snapesgrl
the Hogwarts Professor: Cynthia Smith- EmilyMalfoy
the young boy: James Martin Scott - ShiningPrincess
My Bio:
SPOILER!!: James Martin Scott
Character: The young boy Name: James Martin Scott Nickname: James or Jimmy Age: 16 Year: 6th School: Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry House: Ravenclaw Appearance: Personality: Jimmy is your typical Ravenclaw: studious, witty, and always with his nose up a book. In fact, he even brought several books with him- but what books did he bring? Ever the one to ask questions, he is curious to know who killed the old warlock, but he doesn’t seem very worried that he will be next. He is already quite a powerful wizard, but is he powerful enough to kill? History: As both his parents are magical, he has been asking questions about magic since he was able to speak. His parents encouraged his curiosity and soon he was learning from the best school of magic. Family: Only his mom, Carol, and his dad Leo.

Rhonda: WHY ARE YOU ASKING ME SO MANY QUESTIONS?!
Rhonda is very quiet and a bit twitchy at the moment. For those who know her well know that she's usually quite carefree, loud and somewhat obnoxious. But she claims that she has not changed one little bit and most definitely doesn't want you to take her coat. Or her bag for that matter. Why do you want them anyway? ARE YOU GOING TO ROB HER?! *suspicious face* She claims that her grandfather died a few weeks ago and that she has every reason to be a bit upset. She also is a bit upset over the fact she is single. Apparently. I think that's about all you need to know about little miss Rhonda.
how's that?

Partner: Andrew "Andy" Parker - Keeper for the Appleby Arrows
{So this is Meee}
Born into the wealthy priveledged Macarina family, Adele was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, the oldest of three by 10 years, she was planned, they wern't. This is a fact she never ever drops on the few occasions she does se her family. She always hated her family, sort of, as in, she did love them, but to be honest, they irritated the hell out of her. From a young age she was away from her family, hiding in the orangery or the vineyard, or up in a tree reading books. Well, sort of, she was a completley different person in school around her friends and at events with her parents were she was the life and soul of the party.
As soon as she was given the oppurtunity to go to Beuxbaxtons, or rather, when she was 10, she met her fathers mother and all of his family, who turned out to be a huge pureblood family, she discovered her true heritage, and this was only after a very close shave with a tree. She was told about Beuxbatons a year in advance and as soon as she agreed to it, her parents started arguing, her mother wanted a "normal child", not like her husband, and whilst she was learning french in every spare moment, her mother started to have an affair. And it didn't last long, only about 2 weeks, but it was enough to make her parents split up.
When she went to Beuxbatons, the divorce procedings began. Sorted into Ombrelune, the "wealthy" house, Adele or Addie, thrived, she loved it there, she was far away from her nuts family and they couldn't get at her in Beuxbatons, and whilst all their problems were far away she worked her way through all of her work and slowly built up a solid friendship group that stuck by her and found herself eating up the social ladder.
In her fifth year, she was pronounced, along with her boyfriend as Prefect of Beuxbatons Ombrelune house and she was very happy in her role, she didn't do sport but she didn't care about that, sport wasn't her fortee. And she and said boyfriend were very happy. Until he cheated and to all intents and purposes, broke her heart. But it just made her more determined to get all those Os. She did get all those Os, but it took a long time and made her rather lonely for those few months, but she made her way through it and had a HUGE end of OWL party which re formed her popularity. In her sixth year, she carried on with her Prefectship and was also named as Miss Beuxbaton in the year book, and her reign carried into seventh year too where she became Head Girl, Miss Beuxbaton two years in a row, most likely to become professional model and, most likely to become Minister for Magic. And her NEWT scores supported this too. She left Beuxbatons as one of their greatest Alumni with offers from 100s of prominent, succesful universities.
Eventually deciding on Russia, Adele moved to St. Petersburg to study History of Magic, and when she graduated with a first and met her current partner Andrew Parker. She didn't return to Italy until she finally finished education, and even then, she never met up with her parents, her father had his new family and her mother was just a nasty spinster. She began to work in the ministry in Italy and soon made her way up the ladder, like she'd done in Beuxbaxtons and she and Andy moved to London, where she took up her new position in the London Ministry, and she carried on making her way up the ladder, turning down a job in the ministers office to stick in her department. She even ended up moonlighting with a P.R company. Ultimatley, the Ministry found out and she got stuck in a brand new department and head of it. She became a P.R wizard.
She was sitting at home, going through her outfit list for the Quiditch match she was going to go and support when her letter arrived. And, changing her plans, and appologising profusley to her boy, she made her way to Aeron Mansion
{So this is what I'm like}
Three words describe Adele: Determined, strong and smart. Determined to be right in every way, strong to fight against wrong, and smart enough to read people. And spoilt. Though not as spoilt as she was, Beuxbatons stole that out of her, Beuxbatons also made her harsh, she hasn't spoken to her family since she left Beuxbatons and actually, she doesn't care. Not one bit. Because her family were nuts, and they would make her weak. Her struggle to stay away from her family caused her to excell in her subjects. Though it did help that she did have a good brain on her.
She's also a friendly sort though and she always wants to help, its why she was so cool and keen to be a Prefect, she always wanted to teach and lead and she got the oppurtunity and her conviction to suceed meant she was a good role model, and the fact that she only had one steady boyfriend too. She was loyal. Loyal to the core.
And thats another side to her, her loyalty, the fact that, though she had about three short term boyfriends in university, they were all fairly long lasting relationships, but Andy has been her rock, he was her best friend from the start and never stopped. She supported him in all his matches, despite the fact she despises quiditch and everything about it, and he supported her in her ministry jobs, he supported her when they moved and adjusted too, and he began to play for the Appleby Arrows. And she still went to every single match. She even did P.R for them, and handed out free tickets to people in her department.
But the tough side does take over when she's put into a dangerous postition and she considers this letter as quite a dangerous one

And tons of other magical creatures on her home farm that she does not call pets.
History: De grew up on a small Belgian farm off the beaten path away from most everyone. She learned from an early age how to care for all sorts of non-dangerous magical creatures. She loved it but that was not everything in her life. Her father had a strong interest in quiddich but not the Belgian team. He often called them old school ninny's. All De knew about them is they lost more often then they won. Thats why she got into her fathers favorite team of the Appleby Arrows, they were great and always put up a good fight even when they lost. De's interest in quiddich increased when she started to learn how to fly at the age of 11 and before long she was a quiddich finatic along with her father but she never stopped her original love of life on the farm and that is why she works out in the field within the Beligian ministry. Quiddich is just a huge hobby.
Personality: De is outgoing and loves to meet people. She is very energetic and loves to help anyone or anything that needs it. She is super nice and you will often see a smile on her face. She really can be rather naive because she has not experienced much outside of her small hometown in Belgium which happened to be home to a very small wizarding school.

After Hogwarts he went on to the wizarding equivalent of university/law school, and became a wizarding lawyer. It was after the war ended with Voldemort that he also became a muggle lawyer too.
He met his wife of 2 years after he was her brothers lawyer (the squib brother had gone over the speed limit too often and was facing court). She saw past his boring exterior and they fell in love. He proposed the next summer and they were married by the next winter.
