| | |  Meet Droo
Hello everyone!
My real name is Cassandra, but people on here call me Droo. I am 37 years old and I live in the Washington DC area.
In the school, I play Hecate Lafay, the Potions Mistress and Slytherin Head of House. I also play, Ian Amoroso, the Senior Undersecretary and Secretary for the Board of Governors of Hogwarts and Atropos Trelawney, a dark wizard in Knockturn Alley.
Out of Character, I am the Head Auror for the Department of International Cooperation Forum, the Italian Forum mod, the FanFiction Moderator for the Epic and Adventure section, the Other Stories section and the Script Crypt poetry section, as well as coordinating the Detention section of the school. In the past I have served as Slytherin Prefect, Nurse's Intern, Runes Professor, The Madame Malkins and Olivander's shopkeeper and the Department Head for the International Department of Cooperation and the Special Ops department, which is no longer in use. (Some of these links may not work until you become a full member.)
In real life, I work at a Hotel as a Sales Manager. I have been a theater actor, director, choregrapher, house manager and costume designer. A fundraiser, a funeral director's assistant, a wedding coordinator and a marketing director. I have been married now for the past 14 years, I have a black cat named "The Kittem," a Pitt Bull named "Tosca," and an annoying brother who teases me constantly about my Harry Potter fascination.
Ok... I think I've said enough. If I say anymore you won't have anything to ask me!  Quote:

Ok, so I was in a chat with Ern Kris and Touz and they were saying they couldn't call me Cassandra in IM it was just too long, and they couldn't call me Cass (and I hate that name) because Angelwing was Cass. So someone said Dra! cause we were "Cass and Dra." Touz then said she couldn't call me Dra, but maybe Drool but she typo'd it and forgot the L. and that stuck...

As for Books I like to re-read books, so I'm re-reading the Artemis Foul series again. Rabbit?  I could never eat rabbit. It would be like eating one of my diseased pets. I used to have two rabbits when i was younger.
Artemis Foul series...Not sure i've read them, what are they about?
Oh and another question:
Which of your current 3 role-play characters (Ian, Hecate and Atrops) do you like playing most?

Well, my question is..
1. How Slytherin are you?
2. How can you discover Harry Potter for the first time and also snitchseeker?
3. from all of your charries, which one is your favorite and why?
4. Since you are Head Auror of foreign languages here.. actually how many languages that you can speak? I'll be back when I have other question ~~

Oh and another question:
Which of your current 3 role-play characters (Ian, Hecate and Atrops) do you like playing most? Artemis Fowl is about a boy millionaire who knows about the fairy world. When I'm in the mood, I enjoy Atropos the most. He's just so purely evil, and sooooo unlike me. Quote:

2. Harry Potter, was word of mouth, my friends took me to the movies, Snitchseeker was different, I had read all the books in one week (One through 5) and I needed more so I went searching for Fanfic and found SS.
3. Cassandra Trelawney, My first. I grew her from an 11 year old to now.
4. I know English and Italian Fluently, I know some Spanish, I know some Russian, some Latin and some German... very little French... Mostly hotel French I'm trying to learn Moroccan but I can't make sense of it yet. Quote:

Hello Droo! Since you said you've been a costume designer, and your picture is of you in costume--do you actually cosplay? And if so, what's your favorite costume that you made?

And if so, what's your favorite costume that you made? I don't cosplay really, unless you mean Halloween, the Renn Fest and my shows... ok maybe a do a bit... The favorite costume I made was for a show I did in college. "Les Liaisons Dangereuses" (Dangerous Liasons) and I made the Vicomte de Valmont's attire for his last meeting with the Marquise de Merteuil. Now the women's costumes were fabulous, but you have no idea what goes into making a true pair of those men's pants. The stitching, the BUTTONS! The art... I wish I'd have taken a picture of the outfit on the actor, but I was young and didn't think.
My favorite costume I made for me, is my HP robe, pictured above. I messed up the lining, but had enough for the Hood and Sleeves. So it works.

Droo!!
I have some questions for you!
What was your inspiration for Lafay? Or for that matter, any of your current characters?
Why are they all so.. so evil-like? though I prefer such characters! Atropos and Lafay are two of my favorite charries on SS!
What type of music do you like? Which is your favorite? 
And.. do you like emoticons? 'Cause I use a LOT! | |

I don't really have an inspiration for Lafay. She just sort of came to my mind as someone who is neither black or white, but totally gray. I like layers in the characters I portray, and I have found many in her. She isn't totally evil, though she does make some evil choices.
Now, Atropos, he's purely evil. I need to pull back sometimes cause I don't want him to be unlikeable. My inspiration for him is Part Lucius, Part Voldermort.
Amoroso is based on a friend of mine in college. He had a girlfriend back home, but he was a total flirt, but when one of the girl tried to kiss him, or something, he's tell her he was sorry, but he was in love and no one could make him risk that. He just enjoyed the flirting.
Gina was loosely based on what I knew about my gran. I didn't know her well so some parts I filled in.
Alessia Lupa was based on me. She was me.
Ariel is based on my mother's next door neighbor who once forgot her name at a football game while she was cheerleading... yup... She's a sweety.
Cassandra Trelawney, she was my first... I wanted to have an antagonist, without her being a villain... Maybe a little Draco there... but without the charm.
As to why are they so evil? Well, I'd consider only Atropos evil. And it's because he wants power... lots of it. Hecate and Cassandra were my other "evil" charries... if you want to call them that. Hecate is just trying to survive, and Cassandra is really just misunderstood and frightened.
I really don't have a favorite type of music, just favorite songs in each genre, though I seem to be very partial to Evanescence and P!nk. I LOVE EMOTICONS!!!

now I come to ask you more random question 
1. What's your favorite scent?
2. Since Gina always provides fresh-baked cookies to the fellow level 5 employee (damn, Dimitri and I missed her.) can you bake?
3. tea or coffee?
4. Have you ever thought to play as a student?

I just know 4 of your charries... Lafay, Atropos, Amoroso and Gina.. of which, for me, Lafay is best! followed by Atropos! I always seem to like the bad guys
But its just very surprising and inspiring even.. that you have had such wide spectrum in your charries! Its great!
And see, I do use a lot of emoticons! But I'm not alone!
Now.. time for a question:
If you could choose, which magical creature would you have as your pet? You can choose ANY!

Droo-- I have to say that your list of SS characters as well as your RL jobs sound so interesting. I honestly don't know many people who can say that they did so many things.
My question is what did you find most satisfying in each job and why?

3. Cassandra Trelawney, My first. I grew her from an 11 year old to now. *seconds the HoH thing* Though i don't know of my child-rearing abilities, but I don't want to. BUT ....... yay for uhh, badger babies (in my case) <333
and
yay for first characters!
Soooo my question; if you could do ONE thing different with how you played Cassandra or what happened to her during her time at Hogwarts, what it would be and why?
