Hey there everyone! This is actually Amy (I RP with Amelia Brennan, for those of you that don't know) and have created an Order character! The link to her Profile is in my signature. Other than that, apply for anything below!

Acquaintances
If you're acquaintances with Charlotte, it means you work with her and she is rather fond of looking down at you. She'll give you a small nod and a wave if she sees you. You don't really interact.

• Alexander Graves

Roomate
Charlotte lives in a townhouse on Cobblestone Way located in Wizarding London and decided that she would tolerate another human being in her large home simply to split the rent. That human being, however, turned out to be her ex.

• Jonathen Rand

Friends
Your friends with Charlotte. For some reason, she trusts that you won't let her down. You hang out once in awhile, go for coffee, but probably take a detour to a bar. You guys will have a steady conversation about basically anything. You probably don't work with her, but it's not a given.

• Casia Sylas
• Jason van Zyl
• Lorelei Carlew

Best Friends
For some reason, Charlotte trusts you. You're obviously not a childhood friend (because she didn't really have any of those and even if she did, she usually wouldn't trust them) and you don't work with her (because if you did, she would rip out your heart and stomp on it... repeatedly). You often spend time with her and Charlotte's not afraid to talk to you about almost anything. She might even let you call her Lottie.

• Naina Roy

Mentors
One way or another, you've been there for Charlotte and taught her a thing or two, whether it was about the world, journalism, or watching out for oneself. She keeps in touch with you and, since you are most likely older, often goes out for hard alcohol with you because it's a lot more fun with a senior.

• Lorelei Carlew

Apprentice
Let's ignore the fact that it sounds very Dark Ages and get to the point. On special occasions, Miss Charlotte Camilla Sperling decided that sharing her expertise with a few protégés was a good decision. Long story short, Charlotte has mentored you, whether it was in journalism or the unfortunate happenings of life (this may mean she blackmailed you).

• Deborah Delaney (journalism)
• Theodosia Vega (journalism)

Hookups
Charlotte hooked-up with you, plain and simple. She was most likely having a bad day and/or got drunk and you were right there, handing her a good time on a silver platter. If not, you managed to trick her somehow. Either way, she regrets it all and pretends it never happened. And if you bring it up, hell will be let loose.

• Morphine Sylas (Hogwarts days)

The Exes
You and Charlotte were in a relationship and it ended. Most likely because she was too involved in her work and you didn't like it. Either way, Charlotte does not interact with you, or at leasts avoids to do so. Charlotte Sperling does not go back to exes.

• Jonathen Rand

Significant Other feel free to apply for this, but we have to discuss a plot
You are one of the following:

• currently in a relationship with Charlotte
• either you or Charlotte wants to be in a relationship with the other
• in a secret relationship with Charlotte that, for some reason (which we shall discuss), can't be revealed
• something else that your brilliant mind can come up with

Annoyances
You annoy Charlotte. It may be that you have tried to "one-up" her, have told her what to do, are bringing up a hook-up that may have happened in between the two of you, or really anything else that would annoy Charlotte.

Enemies
You have repeatedly tried to sabotage Charlotte's job or life. You know something about her and are using it to blackmail her OR vice-versa. You and Charlotte are absolutely venomous with each other.

Name: Casia Sylas
Age: 25
Applying for: Friends!
How you met me: They met at Hogwarts! Both were sorted into Ravenclaw, and while Cas is 3 years older than Charlotte, in my head they were at least somewhat close. Now, at 25 Casia has a 5 year old son and an on again off again relationship with Andrew Allister, another Order Member and fellow Curse Breaker along with Casia.
Where you met me: Charlotte sat down next to a third year Casia at Ravenclaw table when she was sorted.
A notable memory: No idea! Let's make one :D

I like it! I can definitely imagine Casia helping out a younger Charlotte and kind of being a second mother to her (seeing as Charlotte was never close to her own parents) and later becoming the sister Char never had. We could start a fun thread to make a memory! Maybe a heart-to-heart in a coffee shop between the two of them (Casia about Talyn and Devlin and Charlotte about her parents and brothers)? Or Casia spilling something on Charlotte's freshly typed article (which could result in shouting and then hormonal emotions from both of them). Any other ideas?

Name: Alexander Graves
Age: 30
Applying for: Acquaintances
How you met me: Alex is the sort-of second in command for the Order when Dumbles is off doing Dumbledore things, it stands to reason that Charlotte would know Alex
Where you met me: First meeting Charlotte attended, he would have given off a very stern and authoritative impression.
A notable memory: Since Alex is generally in charge of the day-to-day running of the Order he's probably supervised her work at some point or another. He's a perfectionist so that may have either driven her or pissed her off depending


I'd like her to maybe be friends with one of the following, but can't decide so I'll let you pick(?) You could probably go for both, but I can't imagine someone simultaneously being friends with Matt and Jason

Name: Jason van Zyl
Age: 22
Applying for: Friends?
How you met me: Jason is a member of the Order of the Phoenix perhaps despite everyone's better judgment. He can be cruel and sadistic, but if he gets to the point of friendship (rare) he's the kind of guy who would either kill or die for you. Preferring the former of course. They also both speak English, French and German which is kinda neat.
Where you met me: Jason is fairly new to the Order, so maybe around his first meeting
A notable memory: Jason delights in pushing people's buttons, whereas Charlotte seems like the type to push back. That might win some respect from him

ALTERNATIVELY (maybe)

How you met me: Matt occasionally does stuff for the Order, but he was, back in the day, a Ravenclaw only a few years older. Maybe they knew each other somehow?
Where you met me: See above
A notable memory: I don't really have as much here, Matt is a much more laid back character than Jason, so if you find him too pushy and assholish Matt might fit better XD

Alex and Charlotte as acquaintances works and I think that Charlotte and Jason would be better friends than Charlotte and Matt. We should do a thread for Char and Jason and maybe even Char and Alex!

I can start up a Jason post today or tomorrow --

And maybe I'll get Alex to have an OOTP meeting so that everyone can meet up =)

Yaaaay, sounds good

None that I can think of at the moment! But I definitely think we should set something up. Order Members are crazy and definitely should be posted more on the boards. The plot I have currently with Cas is she just had to rescue Devlin from Max (a death eater). Devlin never knew that Casia had his son, but now he JUST found out... so maybe they could be talking about that over coffee? They should also go on a mission together or something.

I like it! It would be an interesting conversation and they should definitely do a mission together. I started the coffee thread: http://beyondstonewalls.com/index.php/topic,4884.0.html

Name: Naina Roy
Age: 24
Applying for: Friend, maybe Best-Friend eventually
How you met me: We met at a party or St. Mungo's, and bonded over our lack of family ties. We'd eventually get the occasional coffee or glass of wine, grateful to have an intelligent woman to confide in.
Where you met me: -
A notable memory: Crashing on each other's couches, being too tipsy to walk home.

I like it! I think it would be good for Charlotte to have an amazing and relaxed friendship that not many may know about. I'll put it under Best Friends And would you like to do a thread with something of the sort?

Great Now that we've established that they have a sturdy friendship....let's put it to test, shall we? I'm trying to think of a conflict that is between petty to really serious. Maybe you make a comment about Naina's personal life in a joking manner, but it really hits her right where it hurts...and then she's crying at the bar, blah blah? Anything else would be fine too!

Yeah, I like it! Would you like to start it?

There ya go!

Look, feel free to turn this down if it doesn't seem like it would work. I'm overtired, and I acknowledge fully that my ability to judge logic and such may be impaired, leading to ideas that are really crazy and improbable.

Name: Lorelei Carlew
Age: 44
Applying for: Friend (of an unusual kind)
How you met me: It's really a two-part thing, that. At the start of your 7th year at Hogwarts, you met me dropping my eldest daughter off at King's Cross. It was little more than a passing brush, in which little Leontine (my second daughter) knocked over your trunk, and I apologized, introducing myself. Those Christmas holidays (as you don't sound the type to go home for those), you were Apparating around Hogsmeade when you Splinched. (Entirely not your fault, you were hit by a snowball, which distracted you.) I happened to be shopping nearby at the time. It was very minor, and I helped you reattach the fingernail (It did have to be your wand hand, didn't it?) and, upon recognizing you, offered to buy you a Butterbeer. We chatted a bit, and remained in sporadic contact afterwards.
Where you met me: King's Cross, then Hogsmeade
A notable memory: Recently, I found out you joined the Order. Don't ask how, an ex-Hit Witch never reveals her contacts, but anyway... I turned up at the same coffee shop as you, and gave you a gift of several Potions the purchase of which is restricted. I said they could be useful at some point, and congratulated you, offering you any assistance I can give. (I am not only exceptional at Potions, I have very good contacts in Russia who can supply me with various "hard-to-acquire" items.) You see, I am not an Order member, nor do I wish to be, but I'll give them and you any help you ask for. You are also aware that I'm perfectly willing to help you without expecting any return of service. However, I'm not just a business associate. I love having coffee or vodka with you.

So there you have it. Eh...
