Welcome to Potter's Army

We have been a Harry Potter Roleplaying site since 2007. If you're an old member we hope you come check out the discord link provided below. And if you're looking for a new roleplaying site, well, we're a little inactive. But every once and a while nostalgia sets in and a few of our alumni members will revisit the old stomping grounds and post together. Remember to stay safe out there. And please feel free to drop a line whenever!

What’s Happening?
Since every few months or so a few of our old members get the inspiration to revisit their old stomping grounds we have decided to keep PA open as a place to revisit old threads and start new ones devoid of any serious overarching plot or setting. Take this time to start any of those really weird threads you never got to make with old friends and make them now! Just remember to come say hello in the chatbox below or in the discord. Links have been provided in the "Comings and Goings" forum as well as the welcome widget above.

    GENERAL APPEARANCE: Henri has the appearance of most fourteen year olds- she's not yet perfectly proportionate as she is still growing. She's not exactly short, but she's on the smaller end of the spectrum. She still has baby fat on her face, giving her round, pink cheeks. Her eyes are hazel and usually lined with expertly applied makeup, having been taught by her elder brother's girlfriend. She has slender, bony limbs and a pointed chin and nose. Currently, her hair is short and razor cut; she has her nose and ears pierced; and she dresses however she damn well pleases to dress. Her fingernails are a bit short, as she finds long nails cumbersome. She also has an American accent - not exactly appearance, but a part of her physical traits.

    MIRROR OF ERISED: GREATEST DESIRE: Herself, wearing a crown and a smirk, unable to be stopped by everyone.

    PERSONALITY: Henri is, in simple terms, like every other fourteen-year-old girl. She knows what she wants, and she wants it at any cost. Unlike every other fourteen-year-old girl, she has the ability and the will power to get what she wants through her own refusal to take no for an answer, and her uncanny ability to manipulate those around her. Henri has a large ego due to her general tendency to get away with whatever she pleases; those times she does fail usually turn into memories of great rapture and fun- getting away with something is thrilling, but getting caught is more entertaining. She is very laid back socially, not wanting to appear as anything to anyone. She is lazy in class, sloppy in habit, and continually bored with the events of her life.

    She likes to play people off of each other. Though she has many people who dislike her, she has an equal number of people who are intrigued by her and enjoy the entertainment and thrill factor she adds to their life. Henri doesn't take long to figure out how to manipulate these people, and she likes to create little plots for each acquaintance, and then does all she can to keep up the game.

    She has a penchant for change which, if analysed, might reveal her to be a bit insecure with her own personality. She seems to constantly reinvent herself- new hair length, color, new piercings, new clothes, etcetera. Though she appeared to not care of the opinions of others, she likes to project the image of the untouchable bad girl, because it is easy to survive when people are afraid of you.

------------------------------------------------------------
CHARACTER HISTORY
------------------------------------------------------------


    Early Years: Henri was born into an already strained, malfunctioning family. Married out of obligation after the birth of their illegitimate son Benjamin, Henri's parents had long decided their marriage was without love. Why they stayed together was unbeknownst to the young Finches, who assumed their bickering parents stuck together because they had falsely assumed it would be easier to have two parents together.

    The marriage didn't last though. By the time Henri was nine, her mother decided she had no way out but to try and end her own life. Henri was the one who found her mother convulsing in the bathroom. She called for her nineteen year old brother, home for Easter vacation, and he was able to get her medical attention. Soon after, the divorce was finalized, and Henri opted to live with her brother in Massachusetts. (The family were American natives). Her parents paid for her expenses, but were too busy attempting to rebuild their own lives to really desire to take care of her.

    Henri received an acceptance letter to the Salem Witches' Institute. Her brother was a bit worried- she had already displayed a penchant for trouble in her public elementary education, but he was also distracted with his own escapades.

    School Years: Henri soon found she thrived in SWI. The teachers somehow knew of her troubled childhood and pitied her. She was able to play them like fiddles- getting extra time for homework and forgiveness for trouble-making. By her second year, the pity had run dry. At twelve, Henri had a small, but nasty clique of friends. The girls in said group were constantly in some sort of crisis, and at the root of the trouble there was always one excuse. "But Henri Finch told me-" The investigation stopped there.

    At home, Henri was surrounded by her brother and his older friends. None of his acquaintances were very conscientious about the effect they had on little Henri. She soon aspired to be like them, especially Benny's girlfriend, Zanna. Zanna wore outrageous clothes, had short colored hair, many piercings, tattoos, liked to smoke, and like to talk about how happy she was. Henri began taking up her bad habits, and took them to school with her.

    It was the beginning of her fourth year when the trouble worsened. Near the end of her first semester of school, she was smoking one of Zanna's cigarettes outside, when a peculiar thought struck her. She followed the impulse and dropped the lit cigarette in some clippings in the greenhouse. The greenhouse burned down.

    The school recommended the usual - the breaking of the wand with an expulsion. Benny and Zanna protested, drawing on Henri's unstable beginning, and pity was given again. She would be expelled, but she could retain her wand and attempt to find another school to take her. Hogwarts agreed.

1. I meant to edit that in. Whoops. I don't have a preference anywho.

2. I always write my descriptor of the wand as what she heard from the wandmaker. Ollivander would often say "great for Charms; skillful Healing wand" etc. I can easily edit that out, however. I didn't mean to say her wand really was made for offensive magic anymore than any other.

3. Out of curiosity - why? I changed it on my own, as I have with all of my other apps simply because it's awkward to call them Strengths and Weaknesses. I can change it, but I'm curious as to why I must to have her accepted.

4. Understandable. I was trying to get it all out and didn't mean to make her the dictator she sounds like. That speed is also my penchant mistake. Fast fingers make for a sloppy app.
