 * Motor Mouth
 * Stepford Smiler: BIG time!

Clifford Wilcox St. Grottomire The Third

 * Love At First Sight: For Evadne.
 * Prince Charming Wannabe

Jack Hollows
A sixth-year Hufflepuff of indiscriminate taste. Is... err, friendly with everyone and has a talent for Transfiguration.

 * The Ace
 * Nice Guy
 * Official Couple: With Starla.
 * The Rival: To Phil.
 * Not anymore.

Starla Saffron
A first-year Hufflepuff at the age of sixteen and not what someone would describe as the brightest crayon in the box. Despite the fact that her head's a bit off, her heart's in the right place.


 * Cloudcuckoolander
 * The Ditz
 * Official Couple: With Gideon.

Ephraim Reeves

 * Love At First Sight: Possibly for Alicia Moondust.
 * Only Sane Man: In Phil's group, shared with Rafos.
 * When You Coming Home, Mom?

Evadne Aquarius
A sixth-year Ravenclaw. The daughter of a rogue Death Eater, she's a tough loner with a bit of a mean streak, but her heart is in the right place. She's a bit of a brainiac, particularly when it comes to Potions.


 * Accidental Athlete
 * Brutal Honesty: As Monty Baron finds out.
 * Deadpan Snarker
 * Kuudere
 * Nerds Are Sexy
 * Really Gets Around

Adam Rinaldi

 * The Ace
 * The Casanova
 * Only Sane Man: Quite possibly, along with Amaris.

Colin Moon
A fourth-year Ravenclaw with a crush on Isabella Spindel. An insatiable student, particularly in Charms.

 * Cloudcuckoolander
 * Stepford Smiler: Her mother was killed by Death Eaters. She tries to put on a brave face, but is still suffering.

Caligula "Cal" Flanagan
A sixth-year Slytherin werewolf, a son of the ruling family of one of Britain's most notorious packs. Like his younger sister Livie, he is a "Runt" as a result of a genetic abnormality and suffers a lack of self-esteem because of it. However, he is clever enough (albeit quite ditzy), and is a hit with the ladies. Excels in Charms.


 * Chivalrous Pervert
 * Embarrassing First Name: His full first name is Caligula.
 * As if that wasn't enough, his mom calls him Cali.
 * Our Werewolves Are Different
 * Really Gets Around
 * Shipper On Deck: For Glenn and Isabella.
 * Stepford Smiler
 * The Casanova

Isabella Spindel
A sixth-year Slytherin, the school's resident Alpha Bitch. Like Evadne, she is the daughter of leftover Death Eaters (who are indeed implied to be flunkies to Evadne's mother). Likely as a result of this, she is proficient in Defence Against the Dark Arts.


 * Abusive Parents: Her mother and father are both Death Eaters.
 * Alpha Bitch
 * Dumb Blonde
 * You Need to Get Laid: According to Gabriel, anyway.

Odessa Vanloan
A fifth year Slytherin who is a member of Isabella's Girl Posse. Very quiet, she sticks to her own agenda mostly. Likes Defence Against the Dark Arts.


 * The Quiet One
 * Surrounded By Idiots: What she believes.

Agrippina "Rippa" Flanagan
One of Cal's younger sisters, a fourth-year werewolf. Can be cruel in an icy sort of way, but that's not to say she lacks her hidden depths and maybe even a few dark secrets. Has a knack for Ancient Runes.


 * Morality Pet: Edwin's certainly mellowed her out...
 * Promoted to Love Interest: Played a relatively minor role in the forum's original incarnation, but is getting much more airtime as a result of her relationship with Edwin Growley.
 * Surrounded By Idiots: Or so she would say.
 * The Snark Knight

Drusilla "Silla" Flanagan
The middle Flanagan sister, a third-year. Like the rest of her family, she's a werewolf... and a loose cannon. Her abilities lie in Defence Against the Dark Arts.


 * Bi the Way
 * For the Evulz

Glenn Blakeny
Sixth year and Isabella's best friend. Like Isabella, his Dad is a rogue Death Eater. He has admitted to having a crush on her. Tries to be a tough guy, but is a softie. Likes Herbology.


 * Big Brother Instinct
 * I Am Not My Father
 * Odd Name Out: His siblings are all named for Greek Gods and Goddesses. He, quite clearly, is not.
 * Only Sane Man: Of Slytherin house.
 * Promotion to Parent: Of his own volition.
 * Unlucky Childhood Friend: With Isabella. Though he admits that he likes her, he has no intention to act on the feeling.

Abel Cross
Seventh year with a grudge against vampires and werewolves. Tries to act nice, but is really conniving and power hungry. Is proficient in Charms.


 * Affably Evil
 * A considerable YMMV. Most of the characters can't stand the guy, and not without solid reason. Even fellow Slytherins Glenn, Cal, and Rippa are among his fervent haters. The only major character who seems to like him is Isabella Spindel, who herself is the resident Alpha Bitch.
 * The Casanova
 * Foe Yay: With Cadwyn.
 * Manipulative Bastard
 * Not So Different: Is very much like Tom Riddle.
 * Smug Snake

Charlie and Henry Woodward
Rafos and Emilie's cousins in third year. Though they are Rafos' relatives, they hate him with a passion, and would want to do anything to make him a bloodthirsty vampire like his sister. Both are on the Slytherin Quidditch team, and both have big crushes on Silla Flanagan.


 * For the Evulz
 * Trickster Twins

Minerva McGonagall
The new headmistress of Hogwarts.

 * Badass Teacher: Before he was a teacher, he was an Auror that put four Death Eaters in Azkaban.
 * Papa Wolf: Towards Phil.

Lucia Card
The new Transfiguration teacher. Tries to be a Stern Teacher, but is very clumsy. She is McGonagall's great neice. Head of Gryffindor house.


 * Ms. Fanservice: In Cal's opinion.
 * Stern Teacher: But more of a Bait and Switch Tyrant once you get to know her out of class.
 * Suspiciously Similar Substitute: Lucia Card compared to Minerva McGonagall.
 * Somewhat justified as she is McGonagall's great-niece though.

Rubeus Hagrid
Hagrid still works as the Hogwarts gamekeeper and Care of Magical Creatures teacher. He has more creatures that live on the grounds now and is good friends with Monty.


 * Gentle Giant
 * Papa Wolf: To all Hogwarts students.

Filius Flitwick
Professor Flitwick is still the Hogwarts Charms teacher.

Still the acting Divination teacher, Professor Trelawny is now a recovering alcoholic, but her strange predictions have been more pronounced of late.


 * Cloudcuckoolander

Lachesis Aquarius
One of the death eaters who escaped in the small scale break out, she looks out only for herself. She knows what she wants and makes sure that she gets it.

Death eater who has been on the run since the fall of Voldemort. He is particularly cunning and ruthless with a take-no-prisoners attitude.


 * Abusive Dad

Septimus Spindel
Isabella Spindel's father, he escaped Azkaban in the small scale break-out. He's more of a doer than a thinker and will be the one more likely to execute plans.


 * The Brawn: Between him and his wife.
 * Dumb Muscle

Arcon Bradbury
The last Death Eater to escape in the break out, Arcon is sadistic and insane. He delights in destruction and chaos, and is easily the most dangerous in the group of rogues.


 * Ax Crazy: Emotionally unstable with a fierce desire to kill? Check.
 * Cloudcuckoolander: A much darker version.
 * Loves the Sound of Screaming
 * Psychopathic Manchild

Germanicus Flanagan
