premade characters
#rosmerta
the new proprietress of the Three Broomsticks. while friendly and cordial as can be, you'll be sorry if you're a rowdy drunk and try to bring something foul on her establishment.
#wandworks
a talented wandmaker and owner of Wondrous Wandworks in Diagon Alley. he is no ollivander and he isn't trying to be. his wands are not only perfectly customized to the witch or wizard, but they are ornately carved.
#bookworm
with dreams of being the Hogwart's librarian dashed because the old one refuses to retire or die, this person had to settle for working in flourish and blotts. it drives them mad how carelessly the store handles their tomes, keeping the piled floor to ceiling instead of neatly alphabetized on shelves. not only that, but most of the customers are students and have no respect for literature.
#staytuned
a popular, late night radio personality on the wizarding wireless network. they spout some controversial views and wild conspiracy theories. it is unclear whether they truly believe them or are just playing it up for the fanatical fans, but after the propaganda from the Wizarding War, one could do with a healthy dose of skepticism.
#theprophet
an up and coming reporter for the daily prophet. they are ambitious and have a nose for sniffing out a good story. they aren't afraid to put themselves in questionable or dangerous situations if it could lead to uncovering the truth.
#nailinthecoffin
many were hesitant about branching out into Knockturn Alley after the war. Not this person, however. They saw opportunity. Countless businesses & buildings were left abandoned after all the Death Eaters were shipped off to Azkaban, so they decided to capitalize on it. they made a creepy old shop into a cafe in the hopes of encouraging more people to venture to the dark side.
#truelove
a lover of all things obnoxiously cute, this person took over for the late madam puddifoot at her tea shop and is the new haunt of happy couples. it is rumored that they have incorporated the use of love potion into the tea now.
#burkessuccessor
for some time after the war, borgin and burkes was left vacant after its owners were apprehended for their connection to the dark lord. most of its artifacts were confiscated by the ministry of magic, but this loyal collector has amassed many peculiar items since then and reopened the iconic shop.
#bedsidemanner
an eccentric apothecary employed by St. Mungo's, who gets along better with plants than people. they are a gifted gardener and potioneer, but lack a compelling bedside manner.
#draco
voldemort may be gone and the ministry may have tried to silence those loyal to him by locking them away, but his beliefs live on. the owner of the White Wyvern is appalled by the wizarding world's acceptance of half-bloods and mudbloods.
#inked
the successor of markus scarrs indelible tattoos. no, they will not give you a dark mark for grins and giggles. they run a legitimate business. *if you pick this character, you may change the shop's name. PM an admin after you've been accepted.
#howler
the Hog Head's new owner... and resident werewolf. don't expect service to be too fantastic around the time of the full moon. actually, don't expect it to be fantastic ever because it hasn't changed over the years.
