Danton held the handle of his wand between his teeth in deep concentration as he stared at the color of his potion. It had to be perfect before he could add the final ingredient unless he wanted to start the seven-month-long process all over again. Squinting at it thoughtfully, he nodded, removed his wand from his mouth and gently placed a single beetle's eye in the exact center of the cauldron, whispering dead words as he waved his wand over the concoction.
Almost instantaneously, the air above the cauldron began to crackle, smelling like burnt atmosphere. A dark spot seemed to appear in Danton's vision. He rubbed his eyes with the back of his sleeve, but it remained, becoming larger. When it was the size of a snitch, the young wizard realized that it wasn't a black spot in his vision but a black spot in the world. An empty space, as black as death, grew and stretched before him. He smiled to himself and let loose a call of triumph that echoed through the empty basement laboratory. It had worked! The portal was opening!
When the portal was the size of a small doorway, Danton stuck his wand in his back pocket and climbed through.

This is a recycling of an RP I did about 2 years ago, but that failed to come an end. I'm making a few plot changes and, unfortunately, no longer allowing made-ups, but I believe that will make the story more accessible to everyone. The made-ups unfortunately got left behind last time.
It is, however, one of my better story concepts, if I say so myself.
One November 22, 2106, Danton Latimer Gethin disappeared from his basement through a portal. What was on the other side of that portal remains uncertain, but the young boy was different when he returned. With darkness in his eyes and his soul, he set about a series of events that would throw the world into a chaos that hadn’t been seen since the time of Lord Voldemort.
Now, I've been away for a long time, so if you don't know anything about how I run RPs, please let me explain. I take a different approach to RPs. I’m not going to play any of the characters. I’m going to RP as the plot line. (For anyone who LARPs like I do or plays DnD, I’ll be more of a Storyteller or a Dungeon Master.)
As a result of this decision, all of the available characters are good guys. I will play all of the characters that are evil. I think this helps keep the RP alive because it means that all of the players are working toward the same goal as opposed to against each other. So, if a couple of people quit, we won’t have four good guys against one evil one. And it also means there’s a LOT more people for everyone to interact with.
Also, some of the plot may be delivered to characters via PM. Not to everyone, and not all the time, but there will occasionally be things that characters may or may not want to share with their friends. Dreams, for instance, will be delivered by PM.
Now, this is a future RP, so we are playing with several descendants of the original canon characters. I’ve made family trees to use for this RP. They are here (The Potter/Weasley one is HUGE).
Please take note that Fiona and Blaire are twins, as are Gemini and Genisis, so only play those characters if you're playing with someone you RP with well.

Bio: Fiona was born into a rich family and always got everything she ever wanted. When she started Hogwarts she made freinds rather easilly with her charm and charisma. However this girl is not all she seems. She can be rather vindictive if you mess with her. She will throw anyone to the way side if it benifits her. To top it off her parents think she is sweet and innocent young lady. Right

my bio
SPOILER!!: Monday Zadkiel
The Basics
Name: Monday Cecile Zadkiel
Nicknames: Mon, Mona, Day
Age: 16
Year: Sixth
House: Ravenclaw
PoB: London
DoB: August 7th
Relationship Status: single
Appearances Aren't Everything
Hair: lomg, blonde
Eyes: ice blue
Height: 5"6
Weight: a lady never tells, but she's very skinny
Discerning features: she has a small birthmark on her arm that looks a little like a heart, and a scar in her eyebrow from where she once fell into a glass table
Family; What Would We Do Without Them?
Mother: Zephyr Zadkiel (nee Scamander), 50
Father: Conleth Zadkiel, 50
Pets: Minerva (snowy owl). Named after the Roman Goddess of Wisdom.
Personality:
Monday, or Day as she prefers to be called, is a very open person. She does not keep many secrets, although those that she does keep are well hidden. She tells her friends everything and can often be a little bit of a blabbermouth. Tell Day something juicy, and you can guarantee it will be spread around the school within a matter of weeks. However she does respect people's privacy, and if she is asked to specifically keep something quiet, she will.
Day is friendly and bubbly, and has always thought that she would make a better Hufflepuff than Ravenclaw, as she fails to see what other people see- she is incredibly smart, and usually witty and quite funny. Her exam results are mostly Os and Es, and yet she maintains that it is just hard work, not natural brains.
Monday is also incredibly loyal to her friends and will always stuck up for what she believes is right. Bullies beware - you won't get away with it when Day is around! *flaps Superman cape in your face*. She loves her friends dearly, and more often than not would do anything to protect them. Unless it involves spiders or heights - her two deadly fears.
History:
Monday has had a fairly regular life so far. Middle class family with a nice house in the city, attending Hogwarts from the age of elven with her friends, studying, the occasional party, etc. Her parents doted on her as their only child, but she was never spoilt. In fact, throughout her adolescence, Monday has had to work (usually babysitting) to earn her money, rather than simply have it handed to her on a silver platter. This has led to her being a very responsible and dependable young woman.
Once, during her early childhood, Monday was hospitalised for over a month. When out with her mother in the muggle world, she was carjacked in one of the rougher areas of London (her mother had gotten completely and utterly lost). They both survived the incident unharmed, but soon after Monday caught the flu. This led to her being taken to St. Mungo's after she collapsed at her home. She woke up a day later, but could not remember anything from before just after the carjacking. Her memory was never fully recovered, although she does have vague recollections of a tall house in the city and big fluffy dog.
RP colour: pink
Is that alright? Tell me if you want anything changed!

SPOILER!!: Kelby Potter
Name: Kelby Leighton Potter Nickname: Kel DoB: May 17 Age: 17 Year: 7th House: Gryffindor Blood Status: Half-blood Appearance: Wand: 11 3/4 inches, hawthorn wood, phoenix feather core Patronus: Meerkat Personality: Kelby is a very, very out-going girl. She’ll talk to absolutely anyone if they seem interesting enough, and since she finds many things interesting, there’s a good chance she’ll speak to you. She enjoys making new friends but at the same time is exceedingly loyal to those she has. She won’t forsake a friend easily unless said friend states in no uncertain terms that they don’t want to be friends with her any longer. In that case, she’ll completely cut ties with them and will never speak to them again. This is similar to how she reacts when someone betrays her trust.
Kelby has an adventurous spirit, and she is rarely afraid of anything. Trouble is her middle name, though not because she causes it on purpose; it just sort of happens when she gets into something she shouldn’t. She doesn’t always think things through, though her intentions are usually good. She’s not particularly temperamental, but that doesn’t mean she’s incapable of losing it from time to time. She does enjoy learning, just not enough to work extremely hard in school, as she finds books in general to be very boring. Background: Kelby has always grown up with just her mother, Carla Potter, around, and she’s pretty much okay with it. She did ask her mum once about her dad, but when she refused to tell her, Kel dropped the matter and didn’t mention it again. Because of her mother’s experience travelling overseas and studying foreign languages and politics, Kel has a great appreciation for other cultures and knows a little bit in some languages but isn’t fluent in any except her native English. When she attended Hogwarts at age eleven, she was Sorted into Gryffindor like many of her ancestors, and in her third year she tried out for her house Quidditch team, failed to acquire a spot, and tried again in her fourth year, this time receiving the position of Keeper, and is still part of the team in the same position to this day. Post Color: Purple
Let me know if I need to change or add anything to Kelby's bio

SPOILER!!: The Not So Red Haired Weasley
Gemini "Gem" Weasley
Photos!: Another
{Model: Kaya Rosenthal}
Hello. Pleasure to Meet You~ Name: Gemini Marie Weasley Nicknames: Gem or Gemma Age: 14 DOB: April 7 POB: Ottery St. Catchpole House: Gryffindor Year: Fourth Education: Hogwarts Blood Status: Pureblood
I'm Like an Open Book, Easy to Read~ Wand: 11" Birch wood with fwooper feather core. Pliable Patronus: Wolf Boggart: Being alone Amortentia: Chestnuts, Cookies and Lolipops Animagi: None Likes: Fighting for what she believes, Nighttime, Lolipops!, Talking, Being loud, Dancing, Her family, Her sister, Artemis, Winter, Her friends, Graphic T's, Causing Trouble and Archery. Dislikes: Summer(It's too hot), Falling, Reading, School, Most Slytherins and Heights.
Because My Looks Are Important Height: 5"1 Weight: 90 lbs Skin Tone: Tan Face Shape: Heart Hair: Blonde Eyes: Blue-Gray Usual Attire:LIKE THIS Never Seen Without her moon and star necklace Usual Makeup: Mascara and Lipgloss Build: Short and Thin
Family. Where Would You be Without 'Em? Mother: Salem Weasley (nee Fellows) Father: Dorian Weasley Siblings?: Genesis (Twin sister) Pets: Artemis (grayish white kitten)
And still there's More!
Salem and Dorian first met in their first year of Hogwarts. The two hated each other from the start. Her mother, Salem, was sorted into Slytherin and her father, Dorian, was in Gryffindor. Though the two never really talked to each other until their fifith year. The both of them had been made into Prefects and during one of the meetings Dorian started a conversation with Salem. They began to talk often throughout their fifth and sixith years. The two dated off and on during their seventh year and after Hogwarts they worked together in the Ministry. Eventually after about a year of dating, Dorian proposed. The two married and after five years they had Gemini and Genesis.
Gemini's childhood was seemingly normal...Well to wizarding standards anyways. She first showed magical abilities when she was around two. Her parents were pleased with Gem's early abilities and had high hopes she would be a good wizard. When Gemini got her letter to Hogwarts she really didn't care. She'd never been one for school but she would act excited around her sister.
While on the train two second year Slytherin girls began teasing Genesis because Gen wasn't speaking. Gem, being the older and wiser of the twins, punched the girls. Of course this didn't turn out well. Gemini ended up getting a week's worth of detention and a letter home. In return her mother sent her a Howler, which wasn't so bad.
Gemini doesn't really care about what people think about her. She's not afraid to speak her mind and call people out. Gem hates people that tease or pick on her friends. (Beware: She will punch and she will punch hard.) She also holds grudges against people that offend her or her sister. During class she's either in the hallway or sleeping while the teacher talks. Shockingly, her grades are all good. Although Gem has a hard exterior she truely is a sweet girl. Only a few people are able to see that side of her though.
Random Facts You Need To Know

*She is left handed
*Artemis is named after the Greek Goddess of the Hunt

History
Genesis is the younger twin and daughter of Salem and Dorian Weasley. Her parents met during their first year at Hogwarts. The two dated off and on during their seventh year and after Hogwarts they worked together in the Ministry. Eventually after about a year of dating, Dorian proposed. The two married and after five years they had Gen and Gem.
The twins childhood was pretty normal. They lived in the Burrow like their descendants before them. Genesis didn't start to show signs of having magic until she was about 7. Her parents worried that she was a Squib but where relieved when she began to show signs. When she reached the age of 11 she got her letter to Hogwarts, like her sister.
Gen was excited to start the new school and make new friends. On the train ride though, Gen's usually bright persoanlity seemed to die. She became timid and shy towards others. Some second year Slytherin's teased Genesis, which caused Gemini to punch the girl in the face. Needless to say, Gem got in trouble and the Slytherin's were the "victums". Anyway, Gen was almost sorted into Ravenclaw but she begged the hat to put her in Gryffindor. The hat agreed after a veryy long argument.
Genesis is a soft hearted girl. She hates things that invovle blood or violance, like Qudditch. She spends most of her time following her sister or reading a book. Gen is a very sociable person, she just has a hard time speaking to others. Genesis and her sister are very different from each other but that's what makes them best friends.
The Ah-mazingly Awesome Facts About Her
*She's right handed
*Apollo is named after the Greek God of the Sun
*Apollo has a twin sister named Artemis
Age: 15
Year: 5th
DOB: October 12th
House: Gryffindor
Wand: 13" Rosewood with Dragon Heartstring Core. Stiff.
Spence Potter is the exact opposite of his cousin Kelby. Where Kelby is outgoing and friendly, Spence is reserved and often times misanthropic. At heart he is a good guy, but to the world he can appear a bit of a jerk. His close friends are willing to look past his negative attitude, but others are not so forgiving.
Spence's defensive attitude stems from his deep-seated insecurities. Growing up, he was forever living in the shadow of his "perfect" brother, Hunter. As he failed to live up to his brother's golden standards, he grew more and more introverted and defensive. At fifteen, he is the "negative Nelly" of his social group.
Spence is also a troublemaker. He cares little for the rules and has a tendency to buck authority. He is also quite fearless, which aids him in his rule-breaking. He enjoys quidditch, though he is not on the team. He also likes to read and do other quiet solitary activities. He is horribly afraid of rats.
Though Spence has few close friends, he is very loyal to those he does have, namely his cousin Kelby. Having driven off more than a few people in his life, he has no wish to drive off any of his good friends.
The Basics Full name: Blaire Darling Carlisle
Nicknames: Bee occasionally, but really none other than that. Just be warned: If you ever call her that in accordance with her twin’s “Fi” she may send a curse your way that will put you in the hospital wing for the week.
Nationality: Irish (though she doesn’t look it AT ALL), English, and Italian
Blood: Pure
PoB: Christchurch, New Zealand
Current Place of Residence: Westminster, England
Date of Birth: July 5
Age: 17
Year: 7
House: Slytherin
If You Know Her then Hopefully This is What You Know Wand: 11.5” hornbeam with a unicorn tail hair core; inflexible
Patronus: Black Panther
Boggart: Siamese cats and badgers
~Reasoning: A friend’s Siamese cat hated Blaire with a burning passion for Merlin only knows what reason. When she was 12 it basically attacked her late at night before she joined her friend in her bedroom, resulting in mild scarring and cat-scratch fever.
When she was 10 there was a badger in the park where she was playing soccer. She ended up kicking the soccer ball at it accidentally and it just wasn’t a happy camper about that. She didn’t get hurt by that one, but it scared her poopless!
Amortentia: New books, rubbing alcohol, sunflowers, oatmeal
Likes/Interests: Music (world, country, and pop), tea, reading, mythology, different religion, sneaking around, being independent, learning, cookie dough cheesecake, honesty, boldness, working out and really anything sporty or athletic, Montrose Magpies, big dogs, micro-expressions
Guilty pleasure: African music
Dislikes: People who are fake (much like she considers Fiona to be), goodie-two-shoes, the “puppies and rainbows” type, going to mommy and daddy anytime you want something (she likes to earn most of what she gets), crying, pastel colours
Other: Her accent sounds a little more Kiwi (New Zealand) than her sister’s, but it’s a mix of Kiwi and English.
She has been the Slytherin beater for four years
Family: Can’t Live With ‘Em, Can’t Live Without ‘Em Mother: Braith (Malfoy) Carlisle
Father: Lucas Carlisle
Siblings: Fiona Braith Carlisle (twin)
First cousins: Melissa and Adelinde Ashling (who is still in school, age 17)
Pets: An Egyptian Mau named Osiris, a spotted Eagle Owl named Bagira, and a HUGE, drooling English Mastiff named Trace Adkins. The family has other pets, but those are “hers”.
How to describe her feelings for her family..? Really, deep down Blaire loves her family, but she feels that she would love them all the more if only she didn’t have a twin. Blaire is technically the younger twin, having been born a little over two hours later than Fiona. Fiona and herself are similar in that they aren’t considered the nicest people around, but Lucas and Braith believe Fi to be this perfect angel, because the girl fakes it 24/7 for them. Blaire, on the other hand, is real. She doesn’t care to hide who she is just to make people like her or to keep her out of trouble, and for that she is known in their eyes as the “problem child.” She consistently gets yelled at for talking back and not doing what she’s told. The other big difference: Blaire would much rather earn what she gets than go to mommy and daddy for it. The Carlisle’s are a wealthy family who like doting on their daughters and while she likes getting gifts from them, she rarely asks for things unless she’s desperate. Babysitting, house-sitting, and having a job all lets her earn what she gets and has the added perk of keeping her out of the house and away from Fi for a while.
For the most part, her and Fi can make it work, but they don’t do so very willingly. They are easily annoyed with each other and argue a lot, but as much as they can’t stand each other, Blaire probably wouldn’t go as far as to say that she hates her.
Lucas is more soft-spoken than his wife, but is firm and kind of scary. He’ll be the second to yell between him and his wife, but when he’s in a better mood he’s HILARIOUS. He has the very dry sense of humor that Blaire loves. Braith is a powerful, strong-willed woman who gets results when she wants something. Her confidence and hot temper is what’s really intimidating about her.
More Me! Through the continual yelling, arguments, and typical girl drama that comes with any family consisting of three girls and only one man to balance out all the raging hormones, Blaire has become rather hostile at times and honestly doesn’t give a rat’s behind what anyone thinks. She can’t care. If she did, she would be a walking tear duct after how many times she heard the total BS of “You’re sister’s so good to people and she listens! Why don’t you at least try to act more like her??”. But because she can honestly say that she doesn’t care all that much, she just lets them finish then brushes it off. She is basically 100 percent honesty and bluntness. She doesn’t like to sugar coat much of anything, so if you ask her how you look in a romper and you look like you a fatty, that’s exactly what she’s going to say. Typically though she won’t say anything unless she’s been asked or is intentionally trying to hurt someone (which tends to happen often).
Blaire is definitely more on the independent side, liking to be in solitude a lot of the time to read or study. She is a TOTAL nerd, even if she doesn’t look like one. Reading and learning about various topics is one of her favorite pass times. A lot of times these topics will include Greek, Roman, Chinese, and Egyptian mythology, micro-expressions, the lives of politicians, and much more. And she’s smart. Thanks to a photographic memory she can recite almost anything she’s read and she works incredibly hard studying and doing homework to guarantee top scores. She really is kind of like one of the Ravenclaws stuck in the Slytherin house (unfortunately with her sister).
When Blaire’s not studying or reading, she’s with close friends. (Yes! She has them!) She doesn’t have many, but those that she does have she is very loyal to and becomes a much more fun person for. She likes living on the edge and letting loose. What’s the point in worrying your life away right? And that’s part of what sports and working out do for her—they help her relieve stress and allow her to legally take all that pent-up anger out on other people! It’s a win-win! Because Blaire’s such a “jock,” a lot of people think that she’s super masculine, but she’s really not. She’s just not “Barbie,” as she likes to put it. Her mother constantly worries about her not being feminine enough because she doesn’t like pink and dresses, so she would attempt to get her in an overly frilly, puffy-sleeved, PASTEL pink dress that (even worse) matched Fiona’s! Let’s just say that didn’t work out. Either did Braith’s dream of Blaire becoming a ballet dancer. Ummm hell no. Blaire would bite at that age and has ALWAYS been ridiculously stubborn.
Can You Tell Us Apart? Hope So! Fiona and Blaire look very similar, but they definitely aren’t identical twins. Most can tell who is who.
Complexion: Lightly tanned and clear skin
Height: 5’8”
Build: Slender and small-boned, but toned
Eyes: Sea green
Hair: Dark chocolate brown (a little darker than Fiona’s), naturally wavy but she typically straightens it, layered, and falls to the middle of her back.
Dress: Nice-casual. She’ll usually wear figure-fitting jeans or shorts and a nice shirt or athletic clothes (after or before working out). She’ll wear a skirt occasionally, but rarely a dress. Those are for very special occasions.
