I miss playing Millicent a lot. She was really fun to play, especially her letter threads. And I've always shipped Mill/Goyle. I find them so cute in their mutual stupidity

I have a 35 year old character who's penniless and struggling... does that count?? xD


I'd like to see more older characters, but then whenever I get an older character wip, they end up getting usurped by another younger character wip. =/ I blame it on the fact that old characters sheets are so intimidatingly long. Thinking what Oscar did between hogwarts and his 50s just makes me weep. x.x I kind of just want to write 'then he was a badass for 30 years.' and be done.

Lario spent 30 years in a fireplace. Does that count? ;)

more lgbtq+ characters

and i'm not only talking about their sexual preferences (i'm not putting this in the nc17 section bc i'm not talking about them doing the dance with no pants so that's ok right >>) but also their romantic preferences. i firmly believe that everyone lies on a spectrum and i'd like to see more of characters confused about their sexualities and experimenting and being all clumsy but ultimately accepting themselves for who they are. or badasses who are comfortable with their identities from day 1 and aren't afraid to show it. basically everything, gimme everything pls *grabby hands*

i want to see more chars who struggle. no i'm not an evil driver who likes to torture my chars >>

more chars with cool jobs? i feel like mh is really creative with magical jobs and such so i'd love to see more~

I thinking going with that struggle, I would love to see characters that don't fall into cis gender. I'd especially like to explore the struggle of being a young trans witch or wizard and being angry that magic doesn't offer a quick fix for this (like instantaneous reassignment). I'd also love to see genderfluid and non-binary characters that explore the perception of sex and gender within the magical world.

Couture designers that specialise in menswear.?á There seem to be a few designers on the board, but every time I ask one if they do men the response is usually "well, they could. But really they specialise in ball gowns for women" or something along those lines.

There was one but that char got deleted in the purge a few purges back. But now i'm thinky. Hmmm

Also so i'm not spamming. Real chars that struggle but arent depressed all the time. Or sad all the time.

And chars that are enamored with magic, especially muggleborns.
And more former de/muggleborn conflict
And more spanish chars
And more chars that can play in multiple relationships either platonic or romantic, and not get focused on just one major one.
And Cyrus needs a pureblood marriage arrangement.
And more tall women so Chance can climb them like trees >>
And more service jobs? Magical n stuff

?íSiiii, personajes espa??oles! Debo trabajar por sumayya.

And please yes to more properly poly people.

Demeter is short, but she can actually *be* a tree. Chance is more than welcome to climb her. Zina does.

And obligatory non-spam thing: more politicians. Enough to do cool politiciany threads debating stuff or having elections. [/stuck record]

well pretty much all of mine are lgbt+ soooo xD (one gay, one bisexual/homoromantic, two bicurious/questioning, one asexual/demiromantic, one pansexual/transgender... and then there's vin who balances it out with his extreme closemindedness.)
sometimes I feel like I should be playing more het characters x.x

on the topic of lgbt+ though, I'd like to see more closeted chars or struggles... I feel like MH generally is a very accepting atmosphere, which ends up translating into really openminded and accepting characters. And then I feel like an epic jerk playing Vin who is outspokenly homophobic. Also, I feel like I kind of upset the balance here because I have stupidly-brazen dieter, and very confident Pike (although he wasn't out and proud when he was younger). Motya flirts with guys ooc, but ic he'd be terrified of acting on his male crushes. He comes from two very anti-gay cultures and he definitely wouldn't want anyone to think he might be bi.

As an lgbt+ person myself, I did not come out in school. Very few people did... and they were bullied because of it. It's amazing reconnecting with lgbt+ people from my school who all came out after graduating and sometimes being totally surprised. For example there was a girl who seemed really homophobic - she's now married to a girl, so yeahhh. Denial/self-loathing/projected hatred... all that interesting stuff I honestly like to see it all develop and progress.

I'm hoping to do this with Jude (my trans/non-binary wip). I'm playing that magic does offer him a quick fix - but it's temporary in the form of potions that wear off.

Ugly characters! Because we use models an actors for our characters models, you never see really ugly characters. The real world isn't like that! We need more ugly people!

there may or may not have been a reason why I put this in the 'characters you'd like to see being played' rather than the 'characters you would like to play' thread *cough cough cough*

People with normal jobs? Lawyers, cleaners, hotel managers / workers, restaurant owners, recuitment staff? im so boring

we use them, not only because they're good looking, but because the rules basically prohibit using non 'model' esque people. And by this I mean we discourage using pictures of what you're considering 'ugly' people for just that reason, feelings get stepped on too easily XD and, people's perception of different models isn't always that they're gorgeous XD


and don't forget, normal jobs are different in the magical world than they would tend to be irl, too.


so this isn't spam...

people with more physical disabilities? Or something like that? Cause while I tend to think magic can offer a fix for everything, it probably cant.

Frey is lame and wheelchair bound, as a result of curse damage.?á He's also scarred from a splinching, earlier in life and was never supposed to be attractive (which is why I can never find a model for him I'm happy with). And he is unemployed at the moment, and mooching off his boyfriend with no direction in life. Hes pretty much what a lot of people are asking for.?á He needs some threads, and some friends.

I'd like to see more played parent/child relationships, with adult children and their parents.?á Bring out your over fifties, people!

How far are we allowed to go with this? I'm asking because making characters with mental disabilities is a bit of a touchy subject here

i feel like i have a problem bc i can easily check off everything that's been listed
maybe except the men's couture, sorry zi >>

on the topic of lgbtq+ jkr has mentioned that bloodism/classism outweighs any racism/homophobia, which is why i tend to think hogwarts is more accepting of them? but definitely i'd like to see more internal struggles too ^^my wip list is p much mostly lgbtq+: polyamorous pansexual, polyamorous panromatic demisexual, demiromantic asexual, aromantic asexual annnnnnnd i feel like a lot of the rest might be panromantic and/or pansexual? i'm trying to throw a gender fluid/non-binary char somewhere in the mix but yeah, i have too many ><

i also had this idea for this mute girl who speaks with a special magical device like the oods from doctor who but i haven't really done any work on her beyond that. magical sign language how cool would that be?

ummmmm so this is not spam: plus size characters? i'm guilty of this myself and i'm trying to swap out one of the models i'm thinking of using at least >>
