Name: Deesey
Role: Receptionist
Background: Deesey is the receptionist at the Prophet, since the last one never returned from a vacation at the Bermuda Triangle. With help from an advocate at the House-Elf Relocation office after the passing of her mistress, she has managed to become the first house-elf to ever work for the newspaper. Naturally, she is very excited to be back in the work force. She knows that there will be challenges along the way (such as not being able to read or write), but she is willing to do whatever it takes to make everyone happy.

Name: Maurice Dancewell
Role: Copy Editor
Background: Maurice started his work as a news reporter, often focusing on art, cryptography, and conspiracy theories. His factual writing has caused him to work closely with many Curse-Breakers and goblins in the past and also wind up in a number of heated debates in the middle of the Leaky Cauldron. Though still producing the occasional article for publishing, he has since danced his way into an editing position at the Prophet and is very prudent about fact checking and properly citing credible sources.

Name: Gloria Leblanc
Role: Copy Editor
Background: Gloria has been in the publishing business for quite some time, her roots originating at Obscurus Books. At this point in her career, she has published thousands of written works and has even written several herself. An avid reader, workaholic, and self-proclaimed grammar police, she thoroughly enjoys the fast-paced atmosphere at the Prophet. She is quick to make sure the articles written contain no errors and are perfect in every way before hitting the printing press and being read by the populace.

Name: Cameron Grail
Role: Lifestyle Reporter
Background: Cameron started writing and publishing her work shortly after graduating from Hogwarts after joining the staff at The Quibbler. After working at the tabloid for a number of years, she grew tired of the company's oddities and the joking manner of the content they produced. Wanting to do more serious writing about the wizarding community and really dive into the trends that were catching on fire, she resigned and switched her loyalty over to the Prophet. She hasn't looked back since.

Name: Wallace Fletcher
Role: News Reporter
Background: Wallace is very much a political writer, his articles for the Prophet typically have honed in on the Ministry and how the decisions made within the underground headquarters are impacting the general wizarding population throughout the United Kingdom. The beautiful thing about his writing is that he doesn't make his own beliefs clear, but rather maintains a neutral position and gets readers to look at both sides of the coin and make well-informed conclusions on their own accord.

Name: Elfrida Plaskitt
Role: News Reporter
Background: Elfrida is known for her profound writing at the Prophet, which often highlights the injustices taking place in the world and encourages wizardkind to change their ways. Before writing for the newspaper, she was an activist for a number of organisations that focused on obtaining civil rights for the downtrodden. In fact, her involvement in this line of work is what led to her becoming a reporter. A former editor-in-chief hired her on the spot after hearing her powerful voice in a speech she delivered many years ago.

Name: Brutus Trimble
Role: News Reporter
Background: Brutus has a workload that is almost as heavy as he is. A long-time veteran of the Prophet, he is known to take more writing projects than the normal reporter can handle. Whether it is yet another sugar rush (likely caused by the eating of several doughnuts) kicking in or the fact that he is a naturally gifted and speedy writer, he always has the scoop on the latest occurrences taking place in the wizarding world. Not to mention that he is in the middle of writing another book for his esteemed fantasy series.

Name: Brian MacGuaire
Role: Sports Reporter
Background: Brain once in a blue moon publishes an article about Quidditch, though his primary focus is on the other major sports and games played throughout the wizarding world in the United Kingdom. Duelling, Gobstones, Shrunken Head Bowling, Winged Horse Racing, and Wizard's Chess are commonly written about in his articles. His goal is to spread the word to readers that there is more to life than just flying around on a broomstick and encourage them to try something different for a change.

Name: Jordan Thomas
Role: Sports Reporter
Background: Jordan lives and breathes Quidditch. Though not the best at hiding his blatant bias for the Montrose Magpies and occasionally receiving hate mail for not staying neutral, he still nevertheless produces detailed, play-by-play coverage for most of the matches in the British and Irish Leagues. When it is off season, you can bet your Galleons that he is keeping tabs and writing about trainings, draftings, and speaking to players for the Prophet to build up to hype for the next season.

Name: Kazuma Akagi
Role: Photographer
Background: Kazuma has made for himself quite the reputation through decades of hard work and dedication. In every issue of the Prophet, this Mahoutokoro alum's photography stands out. Having tinkered with several charms on his camera and experimented with potions used for film development to enhance his craft, his photos are always top-quality. Because of this, he is often asked to go the Quidditch League matches as he has a knack for getting the sharpest, clearest shots of the fast-paced gameplay.

Name: Tinley Banks
Role: Photographer
Background: Tinley has been with the Prophet for a handful of years. Her passion for photography sparked when her parents gifted her a camera on her seventh birthday. Her love of capturing life as it happened has taken her all across the globe. Her deep, raw photos always have a message behind them and they have captivated hundreds of witches and wizards and caused many to question their world. For over a decade, her portfolio has focused on the conflicts of wizardkind and civil rights issues.
