Hogwarts RPG Name: Robert Allyn Winchester First Year | Runs With Vampires Adam had been to nervous to eat before the opening feast, so now when he approached the table he was very hungry. Unsure of where he was supposed to sit, he took a seat near the right end of the table and hoped he hadn't taken someone's preferred seat. He looked over the table as the house tables started to fill with students coming in from the carriages and boats.

| Kitty Momma Rachel's Brain Twin A rather tall man draped in fairly odd tailored black robes, seemingly half tuxedo and half normal wizarding attire meshed, entered the hall and ran his right hand coolly through his black and spiky hair before making his way towards the staff table; his crimson red cloak swept this way and that and his boots made quite a nice reverberation with each step down the isle between the Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff tables. All the while the Professor was observing his surroundings and reliving past moments. The last time he had set foot within this room was little over twenty-one years ago, just after his graduation. Finally arriving at the head table and putting a stopper to old memories, Professor Onyx Frost quickly counted the seats and picked the one he thought would best suit him and sat down hoping that he didn’t just steal someone else’s place. “They really should have name plates on these here chairs” he thought. Onyx motioned for the goblet before him and filled it with pumpkin juice before slowly sipping. In his opinion, there was nothing better than a spot of Hogwart’s fine pumpkin juice.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Robert Allyn Winchester First Year | Runs With Vampires Adam looked up again as a tall older man entered the hall and made his way up to the staff table. If Adam squinted, the man looked a bit like Adam's father, but more... sophisticated. Adam watched as the man took a seat and drank some pumpkin juice. Not wanting to look overeager, Adam nodded in the man's direction and said "Hello, I'm Professor Dresden, Potions. And you are?". Adam rubbed his nose piercing momentarily while awaiting the other Professor's reply.

| Kitty Momma Rachel's Brain Twin Onyx sat his goblet upon the table and smiled at the man. “I’m Onyx, Onyx Frost, Arithmancy. Pleasure to meet you Professor Dresden,” he greeted, extending his hand for the man to shake if he liked. “Potions... I am quite fond of the art myself, actually. Nice and soothing it is, eh?” He said cheerily trying to make conversation.

You can call me Adam" Adam said, realising that he'd forgotten to include his first name in his introduction. He leant forward and shook the man's hand.
"I don't know about soothing, but I suppose that's because i'm always adding things to potions i'm making and hoping they don't cause the cauldron to explode" Adam said smiling. He certainly had a non-traditional approach to Potion making.
"Arithmancy, now that's a subject I was terrible at when I was at school. You were obviously quite good at it, seeing as you teach it, but I could never get my head around it" Adam added, realising he was rambling.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Armand Beta-Erikson Slytherin First Year Hogwarts RPG Name: Damien Beta-Erikson Slytherin First Year Ministry RPG Name:
Armand Erikson Ecological Protection Ministry RPG Name:
Slade Erikson Mysteries | Slytherin by heart With a quiet step he entered the hall. If not for his tall stature and the shimmer of his deep blue cloak he could almost be missed. He glanced about the hall at the students, taking a moment to take in the sight. At one time he'd sat at these tables, eager for the new year to start. His gaze lingered momentarily on the Slytherin table before he started moving once more. At one time this moment was only dream. But he'd become skilled in making dreams into reality, and he hoped to do the same for the students here.
A hand casually brushed a few long strands of hair from his face and adjusted his ponytail. Walking around the side of the table he tapped each chair as he counted, thinking of how he imagined sitting here so many times before. And he took his place, looking out over the other students, the view better than he had imagined.

| Kitty Momma Rachel's Brain Twin “Of course,” he said chuckling and shaking the man’s hand. “I see, must be quite nerve-wracking! Pardon,” he said reaching for his goblet once again and taking a drought of juice from it. Setting it back down he pondered his reply for a moment. “Well you see, my father’s quite an Arithmancer, and my mother an equally accomplished Numerologist...” he began, hoping Adam would have an idea of what that was. “So, by the time I came here to Hogwarts, they trained me up proper in both areas, and also in Arithmancy as far as non-magic fields of the subject would allow – didn’t know if I’d be a wizard or muggle, see. Probably wouldn’t have been nearly as well off in the subject now if it hadn’t been for that. Hook them young as my father always says!” At this he gave a hearty laugh. OOC: Not one of my better posts, sorry. *facedesk*

He was relatively happy with his lot in life at present, even though he had hoped to be a famous rock star by this age.
"Sounds like your father was a smart man, mine's favourite saying was 'Go entertain yourself, i'm busy', Adam said shrugging.
He looked past Onyx as another male Professor, even taller than Onyx, sat down at the table. Adam nodded to him in greeting, not wanting to break from the conversation unless Onyx wanted to also greet the newcomer.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Elijah Wilde Graduated | Farmer Carter | | Ama's Secret T. Hirty strolled in, head held high, his arms moving in rhythm with his steps. If he were perfectly honest he was nervous. All these younger students, and by the looks of it, younger professors. He took an appropriate seat at the staff table and smiled at the three men currently seated already.

| T l Guitar ♥ l l Bed Police l S Professor Dainsie walked in quietly in muggle clothes and a red robe, taking her usual seat toward the middle of the table. She sat back in her chair and took in the students meeting each other in the hall, a sea of bright faces bubbling with chatter. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Bueller B. Betsworth Fifth Year | Jor!Jor! Queen Hermidana A tall young woman with long black hair could be seen entering the Great Hall. Her long sapphire robe billowed behind her as she made her way to the staff table. Taking her time as she walked, she managed to take in all the familiar smells and architecture that seemed to bring back so many fond memories from when she was a child.
Giving a polite nod to the students as she passed them, Maddison finally reached her destination. Her attention was immediately directed to the seats and their occupants. Giving them all a smile, she made her way over to an unoccupied chair, only hoping that she wouldn't be taking anyone's place.
She casually looked around and noticed that many of her colleges were already getting to know one another. Reaching for a goblet she proceeded to pour herself a glass of pumpkin juice. |

First Year | GWFC/BWFC My <3 Ophelia, bright eyed and wonderously gazing about the hall, made her way, rather gracefully it could be said, to the staff table. A halo of light blue, pink and red butterflies followed her faithfully, Frank perched within the braided coils of golden hair. Her lightly tanned face held high a merry beam as her dark blue robes swished around her ankles, and a quiet hum could be heard parting from her lips. She sat down, and looked down the table at the other staff members, right down to a very pretty young witch who seemed to be pouring herself a glass of pumpkin juice. She copied the womans actions, feeling herself suddenly parched. Pouring the glass, Ophelia Maline looked around the hall with curiosity, it had been a long time since she had been at Hogwarts herself, and the happy faces were welcoming to her. She smiled absently once more, and beamed at the rest of the staff.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Sirius Potter Fourth Year | Gryfflepuff Tolkien, who had just taken his seat, saw Wood walking in front of the staff tables. He shook his head. The boy was bright and witty but had a leaning towards the dark side of his gift. Tolkien had often wondered why the boy had not been sorted into Slytherin.
"Hello Wood," Tolkien said greeting the boy. "It's good to see you. Have a good holiday?"

Hogwarts RPG Name: Sirius Potter Fourth Year | Gryfflepuff Tolkien nodded and removed his wand from the folds of his robe. Rather than call attention by speaking out loud Tolkien just pointed his wand for a brief moment and the strain disappeared. Another quick flick and the boys uniform looked almost new.
"There you go, glad I could help," Jack stated.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Professor McFarlane Graduated | IndyEddie Hazelle hurried in, hoping she was not late. The only thing that could make this day worse would be running in late and everybody staring deep inside her soul. Her eyes were no longer bloodshot, but they lacked her usual twinkle. She did a good job of composing herself, but Merlin help the first person to cross her line.
She took a seat at the table, happy that many of the students and her colleagues were engrossed in their own conversations to notice. She took several slow, deep breaths, put on her best smile and waited for the feast to begin officially.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Elijah Wilde Graduated | Farmer Carter | | Ama's Secret A couple more Professors joined them and Trent smiled in recognition. One of them took a seat beside him, "Ophelia!" Trent smiled. He was glad he knew someone. "Good to see you again. Did you enjoy the rest of your holidays?" He asked, pouring himself and the Care of Magical Creature's Professor a drink. The whole scene in front of him was intimidating, and Trent wasn't easily intimidated.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Meredith Leigh Brooks-Byron Graduated | The Other Ari | | Cookie Monster Ariana walked into the great hall after she had gotten her rooms and offices set up the way she liked and set down in an available seat beside a new professor she didn't recognize. Apparently her name was Ophelia since the man seemed to know her. She gave her a smile and looked at all gathered. She looked over towards Hazelle and could tell something wasn't right. They hadn't had much of a chance to talk over the summer and would have to find a way to catch up.
She reached and poured herself a goblet of water and took a small sip before placing it in front of her. "I'm Ariana, the healer here." She said with a grin and holding out her hand.

"Hello Professor Maline!" She trilled at the professor who she had met in Diagon Alley.

Containing himself after a moment he turned back to Adam, unable to suppress a lingering wide grin. ”Sorry to hear that, mate. So...” he trailed off and turned to his left at seeing Adam nod, and upon seeing a new face he followed suit and nodded in greeting as well. Onyx had been so caught up in the conversation between himself and Adam as well as his fit of laughter that he hadn’t even noticed when the man arrived. “’Ello, didn’t see you there! I’m Onyx Frost, Arithmancy. How about you, then?” He introduced himself and fished for the man’s name and subject. OOC: lmfao!
