Professor Severus Snape

Snape was entrusted with the task of smuggling the Dark Lord's daughter out of Durmstrang, keeping her safe over the summer, and delivering her to Hogwarts. During the summer, he began to experience feelings for his charge. The feelings were mutual and resulted in his doing something he would later come to regret. His lack of emotional support pushed Marcella toward her father. (see Light met the Dark and Shone)

Arriving back at Hogwarts, he distanced himself from Marcella and used his daughter, Kristi, to spy on her. Eventually, Kristi's identity was revelaed and Snape found himself in close contact with Marcella once again. His love for her was rekindled and he made some more poor choices.

Kristi was dead and he presumed Marcella dead, as well. In his grief he used the Cruciatus curse on one of Marcella's friends. Marcella was not dead, however and the two went into hiding from the ministry. Eventually, he went with Dumbledore to turn himself in. As this RP starts, Snape is in Azkaban Prison, awaiting trial.

Kristi

The embittered daughter of Snape, she has spent her entire time at Hogwarts as her father's spy. Quiet and skulking in corners, to the other Slytherins, she was a weakling who belonged in Hufflepuff. Little did they know that she was monitoring their every move.

For several months she had managed to keep her cover after Marcella had arrived. However, as she formed her first friendship with a first year, Kristi found herself face-to-face with Marcella and her freinds. Ditching the first year, Kristi makes her way into Marcella's circle of friends. Eventually, her true identity as Snape's daughter is revealed and she finds out about Snape and Marcella's relationship.

Believing that the only way her father and Marcella could be together would be if she were gone, Kristi faked her own death and planned to run off. However, she ends up in the wrong place at the wrong time, by being at her father's cottage when he and Marcella arrive to hide out from the ministry. She aids in their escape to 12 Grimmauld Place, but her efforts were in vain as he decides to turn himself in, anyway. As this RP starts, Kristi is at 12 Grimmauld Place with Marcella and Archie.

shall i make Archie new potions teacher or Defence against the Dark arts cos i don't know if snape will come back and resume the potions teaching post.

Snape is, unfortunately, going to be stuck in Azkaban for the majority of the RPG, so maybe it would be a good idea if Dumbledore asked Archie to take up the position. It would also make for good humor, perhaps making it seem as though at a later stage, Marce confuses Archie for Snape. Although, obviously she wouldn't, but that might be the funny impression the situation could give.


Sorry for typing in your post, Emma, but I wanted to keep these ooc posts to a minimum and this is just my affirmation of what you've just said: I think that would be a great idea- it further enhances the similarities between Archie and Snape. Perhaps that's what Dumbledore likes to do with all ex- Death Eaters: make them teach potions in penance. lol (Kris)

Jennifer_w will be taking over my other character Nicholas Lestrange, who I used to type in purple.

Nicholas Lestrange

Son of Bellatrix, also Son of Lord Voldemort. He is Marce's half brother and therefore very protective over her and all who touch her life. Even though he is slightly younger than her, by a month, he very much plays the part of the older brother looking after the younger sister. Nick, like the others, will suspect Darrin to be a DE, but wont be able to prove it. He is friends with Archie, but it wary of him around his sister, and tried to protect her desparately from making a terrible mistake with him. He recognises she is heartbroken over Snape but knows she loves him. He fails in preventing them from making that mistake and thus after becomes annoyed with her. They have a fight in which results him backing off but still being there for her. In amongst all that, he befriends and then forms a love connection with Andriel, who is a vampire. He also helps her out with the transistion as she is a newly become vampire and still has all the adjustments to go through. Unlike the others, he doesn't trust Kristi wholly and is constantly watching her, trying to suss her out and decide whether she is for their side.

Nick is not like his father, murder is not what he is capable of. But he does dislike mudbloods greatly and feels they shouldn't be in the school. He wants to find a better solution to the problem. But, he would kill at a push if someone threatened Marce's life (although if we're going to kill someone I will let you know beforehand).

He had blonde longish hair, shoulder length, blueish green eyes and is rather tall and slim.

I just thought of something. At this point in the story are Marcella and Andriel the only ones that know that Kristi is Snape's daughter? I can't remember now.

Emma: Yeah, I think they are. That's a very good point actually Kris. Let me ask you, does Kristi plan on coming out about it and her death and being honest, or is she going to keep her dad secret? Because obviously she's going to be a bit torn about him being in Azkaban and people will grow suspicious as she's supposedly only his student. <s>Myself</s> Marcella, Archie and Snape are the only ones who thought she died so that really isn't a problem.

Well, now that you mention it; I don't think Kristi would come clean with everyone. I think she'll just try to keep it secret and let people have their suspicions. It's more fun that way :D .

Emma: That complicates matters, but what they hey, it'll be more of a challenge that way!! Right, I'm going to kick things off! All characters to type in the same color/font/text they did before!

Feeling numb, lost of any words to utter, she let go of all reason and lashed out, smacking Darrin right across the face. "How dare you! How dare you show your face around here after what you did!" She found herself unable to control her mouth and proceeded to swear at the boy, as he merely looked a little shocked and bemused at her.

It was the most Marce could do to hold her fists back as she watched him push his way through the door and stand by the bottom of the staircase, looking rather pompous, pleased with himself.

"If you children will excuse me, I have to see Dumbledore about a pressing matter. Business with the order, nothing for you petty creatures to concern your minds over." he added, a cocky grin creeping onto his face as he watched their faces fall.

Archie narrowed his eyes at Darrin ,he felt hatred beyond anything. "and why don't we need to know ?"Archie asked "i'm an order member ,why not tell me?"Archie said in a confident voice.

Darrin ignored Archie and turned to Marce instead. "Look, I honestly dont know what your problem is with me. I'll let you get away with not apologising for hitting me, but I'd really like you to tell me where I can find Dumbledore."

Marce clenched her fists once more and only just managed to prevent herself from hitting him once more. She turned to walk away and mumbled under her breath, "He's got some bloody nerve."

"I'll wait in his room for him then." he said, walking away, feigning a baffled look at the tone of her voice.

She walked to the living room and threw herself on the couch. Throwing a pillow into her lap, she proceeded to punch it, imagining it to be Darrin and then picturing Dumbledore. "How dare he enroll Darrin into the order! The stupid, selfish, self-obsessed idiot!!" she bellowed, angry tears streaming down her face. "This world has turned upside down, Snape, the man I love, is locked in Azkaban for defending me and that scum is walking free when he threatened my life!"

Archie was shaking with anger he was on the verge of roaring with anger but he decided to go and comfort marcella "can't stand that ... "Archie sat on the arm of the sofa of which marce was crying on "hey marce i know it's not fair but Darrin will get what is coming to him"Archie said comfortingly.

Archie put a comforting arm around her "i know, i know, i hate Darrin as much as you ,hate isn't even the word ,Darrin better not say anything else or i don't know what i'll do "Archie said "why don't you put your head and get some sleep a rest will do you good"

"don't worry i'll stay here, no way am i letting Darrin near you whilst you're resting"Archie said .

Archie noticed Marcella crying in her sleep he conjured up a tissue and dabbed her tears away trying not to wake her.
