xxxBACKSTORYxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
EARLY CHILDHOODReggie has a sad beginning. He never got to meet his muggle mom she died when he was born. His magic dad tried to raise his son. Many years he tried, but the stress led him to drink. In his drunkenness he was abusive to Reggie but would always regret it when sober. This downward spiral continued till Reggie was 6.
Reggie was never sure how the aurors found out about daddy when he drank the stinky stuff. He was quiet and a good boy like daddy said. Though daddy was kinda loud last time and they lived in a neighborhood with lots of houses. Soon he was off to live at a new home but daddy didn’t come with. Maybe it won't be as loud there...
About a year after arriving Reggie not full understanding that he was not going to see his daddy tried sneaking out to go meet him again. As expected he got terribly lost. He encountered David as a wolf on a full moon night and got bitten. He was saved by a Wool's volunteer, Jer, and brought back to the orphanage where Reggie made a 'clean' break from his dad. Wolves and the dark were too high a price.

xxx𝓟𝒆𝓻𝓼𝓸𝓷𝓪𝓵𝓲𝓽𝔂xxx xxxxx⇾Bɪᴢᴀʀʀᴇ: Eion has some very weird quirks. He has odd collections and habits, but his strange ways of thinking are by far the strongest. His mind works in mysterious ways, but he always seems to have something to say, if not necessarily what one would anticipate. xxxxx⇾Iᴍᴀɢɪɴᴀᴛɪᴠᴇ: Eion tends to live in his head, as it's a world he can create without pain, sadness, or fear. Unfortunately, this leads to some clashes in reality when he's confronted with hard truths. xxxxx⇾Aᴡᴋᴡᴀʀᴅ: Socially, Eion has always been incredibly awkward. Be it the choices of topic he starts or his odd replies, he's never quite mastered talking to people without seeming like a total weirdo. xxxxx⇾Hᴜᴍʙʟᴇ: If ever congratulated, Eion is quick to give recognition to someone else. He never likes being in the spotlight good or bad, but he's more used to criticism, which he takes and accepts. xxxxx⇾Sᴛᴜᴅɪᴏᴜs: Eion loves learning, be it from books, TV, or other sources. He does his best to always study whatever he can get his hands on, if only to sate a natural curiosity. xxxxx⇾Sᴇʟꜰ-Lᴏᴀᴛʜɪɴɢ: While he's always civil and polite to everyone around him, there is one person Eion hates. Himself. After all he's been through, it's left him feeling dirty and disgusted with his own body. He can't stand people complimenting his physical form, and will often break down at serious insults to his person.

xxx𝒞𝒽𝒾𝓁𝒹𝒽𝑜𝑜𝒹xxx Sheldon Eion Linton was born to Felix and Tabitha Linton. He had a happy, healthy childhood until the age of three when his father tragically passed away due to an unexplained illness. Of course, Tabitha never went in depth on the topic, afraid of scaring her son. Shortly after Felix's death, Tabitha remarried to a man named Russel. Sheldon absolutely hated Russel, but unfortunately, his mom needed the money he made (which wasn't much, mind).
Unfortunately for Sheldon, Russel had a nasty temper and a horrible drinking habit, leading him to hit Sheldon a lot. He also touched him inappropriately whenever Tabitha left the boys alone together. Over the few years he was stuck with the man, Russel escalated to more than just touching, leading Sheldon to hate himself so much he couldn't even bear to call himself by name. That's when his preference to go by his middle name took over.
One night when Russel was especially drunk, he got in a fight with Tabitha (something she'd rarely seen as he preferred to take out his anger on Sheldon instead). Eion, being used to this torment from the man tried to stand up for his mother, but ended up getting pretty badly wounded. The next thing he knew, he was waking up in a muggle hospital with several injuries caused by both fists and a knife, including his left eye being missing. Russel was arrested for attempted murder, but the court wouldn't let Eion just go back to his mother, especially because she refused to say Russel had ever hurt her son before. While they were apart, Tabitha began sending her son several trinkets, including a glass eye she'd had made to match his other so he wouldn't be "freaky". This piqued an interest in him, and he asked for more and more in whatever colors and patterns she could find. Surely he was going back home eventually, right?
Sadly, this wasn't the case, and after a year-long battle, Tabitha was forced to give up her son as a Ward of the State. A teary reunion ended with him being taken away from the only home he'd ever known. He was left by the suit-wearing men at an orphanage, with only a backpack, his eye-collection, and a suitcase of his clothes. He was even forced to switch to a brand new school, supposedly for a "fresh start". Unfortunately, all the damage done stuck with him, and he quickly discovered his own self-loathing at having ever been touched and not brave enough to stop the torture. He's convinced no family will ever want someone as messed up and dirty as him, so he just waits sadly at Wool's, wishing he'd had a better life to share.

xxx𝓟𝒆𝓻𝓼𝓸𝓷𝓪𝓵𝓲𝓽𝔂xxx xxxxx⇾Sʜʏ: Thanks to his mother's lack of socialization, Simon rarely speaks to anyone. It takes a long time and a lot of effort to learn so much as his name, thanks to his silence. Being in large crowds makes him panic, causing impulsive magic and general fear. xxxxx⇾Nᴇʀᴠᴏᴜs: Simon is skittish and wary of anything new or remotely different. If a big change is ever expected, expect him to freak out and try to return to a normal situation. xxxxx⇾Aɴxɪᴏᴜs: Simon has absolutely terrible social anxiety, and it is because of that that he rarely talks to people. When he does, he's incredibly awkward and quiet. He is quick to panic in social situations, and occasionally has full meltdowns. xxxxx⇾Tɪᴅʏ: Simon likes to keep his spaces clean. He may drop things, but he is known to pick up his messes and put his things where they belong. If he's ever in a messy room, expect him to begin cleaning it to the best of his ability. He cannot stand messes. xxxxx⇾Dɪsᴛʀᴜsᴛꜰᴜʟ: Simon is terribly wary of people, particularly new people. If he spends a lot of time with someone, he is better able to trust them, but he won't always. It takes a great deal of hard work and careful words to garner any trust from the toddler. Luckily, once you've managed to gain his trust, he'll remain by your side and hold you close. xxxxx⇾Qᴜɪᴇᴛ: Simon is an incredibly quiet child. He seldom speaks, and he's learned to move silently. He never wants to interrupt, so even if he's bleeding profusely, you can bet he'll stay silent until someone notices. He also communicates with non-verbal gestures rather frequently, including shrugs and uncomfortable glances.

xxx𝒞𝒽𝒾𝓁𝒹𝒽𝑜𝑜𝒹xxx Simon was born to Martha McKay, a young squib woman. She had a few dates with a nice pureblooded guy, but cut it off when his constant use of magic got overwhelming. A few weeks later, she discovered she was pregnant. Instead of raising the baby, she decided she'd set it up for adoption when it started showing magic. If it was a squib, she'd live with her mistakes and keep the baby. The plan wasn't well thought out, but it was her plan. When the baby was born, she realized the error of her choice. The kid was a metamorphmagus. It was too much for her, given that she’d been raised to hate herself due to her lack of magic.. However, Martha had a heart, and tried to raise the baby until he was at least five..
Another thing Martha never realized was how messy kids were, and her obsession with cleanliness meant that Simon got punished any time he made a mess or forgot to put away his things. He learned to cope with her, and as a toddler, would always try to help her keep the house clean, even when her mean boyfriend would come to visit. That man, Simon detested, as he liked to slap them both around. At the tender young age of two Simon had to learn to use his ability to hide bruises, even though he had no ability to change in any other form.
He unfortunately, thought differently of her, as she would punish him if he accidentally changed colors in public scenarios. Eventually, he would just wrap himself in hats and scarves with long clothes, regardless of the seasons. When he was three, she had a meltdown and she tried to get anyone at all to take him, before she eventually decided he'd be better off without her. She left him alone on the steps of Wools Orphanage without so much as a proper goodbye, let alone a loving one.

xxxBACKSTORYxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
EARLY CHILDHOOD Jasper has wizard blood in him but would have never known it. His parents were quite anti magic. His dad was the estranged squib son of a wizarding family. When he left and joined the muggle world he never looked back. He got married to a respectable muggle woman. Jasper was born and his father was more than happy to settle to his white picket fence life. Jasper however was not the kid he had hoped for. Jasper was the baby who would cry all night and run around all day. He was by their standards out of control. All Jasper needed was an outlet as he was successful in preschool and played well with others. Their worst fears came true when Jasper would come home with notes of him somehow being covered in paint but claim the paint jars exploded and he would suddenly have his favorite toy with him despite not actually bringing it originally. They tried to ignore his blatant magic but when he had a tantrum at dinner cause he really didn't want his peas and caused the peas to explode everywhere (much to his delight) they decided to give him up. Not wanting to arouse suspicions they packed and moved houses. Jasper however would be left at Wools without much ceremony.

His teacher launched investigations into the family when Quinn mentioned some of the things that went on at home. Within a few months, the Ministry had taken Quinn from his home and put into protective care at Wool's.

EARLY CHILDHOOD Phoenix was an unwanted child before he even existed. His mom had a wild night and ended up in a one night stand. She regretted the sinful night being usually religious. She was greatly disappointed to find she was pregnant. Her family was delighted so she faked looking forward to being a mom. Phoenix was born and had a hard lot in life right away. He was cared for but was never truly loved by his mom. Phoenix started showing magic early, as young as three years old. Mainly having toys appear for him or things that spooked him either breaking or go missing. His mom was not pleased with the strange happenings around her son. She would discipline him whenever these thing would happen. Phoenix not understanding why or what he done wrong grew timid and afraid. He usually had wear stuffy sweaters if he had too many bruises. Eventually when he was six and on a kindergarten trip one of the other mom made sure he got a lunch when his mom hadn't made one for him. He made the mistake of telling mom about the nice lady and got a big punishment. He just wanted a nice adult like that one mom so he decided to run away. Being so young all he packed was his prized plush bear, his favorite blanket, and a box of cereal. He was found by a nice police officer who took him to the station. He was worried he was in trouble because he didn't wear the sweater like he should and they seemed very interested in the bruises. He just wished they wouldn't keep trying to hug him or touch him. He was scared when he thought he was going back to mommy he even tried to hide. He was only so well hidden by the soda machine when a nice man came and told him he didn't have to go back to mommy and would get a new home at a place called Wools. Where there nice adults there?

xxx𝒞𝒽𝒾𝓁𝒹𝒽𝑜𝑜𝒹xxx Harriette was born in Bibury, England to her parents, who had been visiting their own parents. Shortly after she was born, the family returned to their small home in Reykjavik, Iceland. Her parents, Enirs and Katrin, both worked on a fishing boat. When fishing season came around, she went to stay with a family friend in a small community near some massive ice caves. When she was three, her parents’ boat was capsized at sea, and unfortunately, neither survived.
The family that was watching her was unable to afford to continue without the family paying them, so she was sent to live with her elderly grandparents in England. The older family, unfortunately, was unable to care for Harriette due to her wild energy and their lack of help, so she was given up to the state for someone to adopt.
Now Harriette lives at Wool’s and is desperate for someone to understand her, or even for someone to give her love and attention. She often cries for her parents, still not quite grasping that they won’t ever come and take her home.

xxxBACKSTORYxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
EARLY CHILDHOOD Dywn’s birth was an accident. His mother was a daredevil and like doing things on a whim. His father was similarly so, he was young and rebellious by goblin standards. Lots of alcohol and some time later, his mom found out she was pregnant she had no idea who the father was as she hadn't exactly kept track of who all she slept with. She knew she didn’t want to be a mom but also felt she should have the child and perhaps give him to a family who did want a kid. During normal medical check ups she learned he was a small baby.. Not underdeveloped but just unusually small. Knowing who this narrowed it down too perhaps her child would be best with his goblin father. Unfortunately he was not ready to be a dad especially with the social stigma a half breed child would bring. Soon after being born he was named after his dad and given to Wool’s in hopes of finding a good life.
As he grew Dwyn knew he was different he didnt grow as much. He also looked different enough. Especially his pointy ears. He didn't like that he was the odd ball out. He see other kids get family's but he got overlooked. Beside who wanted the freaky short kid with those ears and other strange things. His magic showed relatively early when a toy broke cause him and a kid were fighting over it he hold on to it to not get in trouble but then it be whole again! Coming up on six years old he has taken to half hiding when adopters come in. If they don't see him then he won't be disappointed when he’s passed over.

Bridget did her best to take care of her daughter, but soon had to find a job, so Bethanie went to a local daycare every day. One day, on the way to pick up her daughter, Bridget was killed in a car crash with a drunk driver. The toddler was collected by some guys in fancy suits. They took her to the local police station, and while looking up her records, discovered her father had recently died in the war.
The fancy-suit men told her carefully that her parents had passed on to Heaven, and told her that she would be sent to live with her grandparents. Unfortunately, they quickly learned that they were poorly, and unable to care for a young child. Their next step was to send her to a special "home" called Wool's to live until a nice family could take her in. Once they arrived, she met the caretakers, Luke and Steffi, and was given a nice place to sleep. Now she spends her time there with the other children, doing her best to keep her spirits high.
When Bethie was just-turned 4, she met a lovely couple called Pam and Aster. It didn't take long before the girl was in love. It did, however, take what felt like forever for them to adopt her, but she was willing to wait if it meant they'd be her new family. Besides, she would be the only person she knew with two mommies, which made it all the more special. xxx𝒮𝒸𝒽𝑜𝑜𝓁 𝒴𝑒𝒶𝓇𝓈xxx n/a xxx𝒜𝒹𝓊𝓁𝓉𝒽𝑜𝑜𝒹xxx n/a

xxx𝓟𝒆𝓻𝓼𝓸𝓷𝓪𝓵𝓲𝓽𝔂xxx xxxxx⇾Dʀᴇᴀᴍʏ: Calliope always has her thoughts tangled in some sort of dreamland. She has issues focusing on reality simply because her mind is always elsewhere. She often mentions tidbits from her daydreams as though they were part of reality, thus making her seem strange.
xxxxx⇾Sᴏꜰᴛ Sᴘᴏᴋᴇɴ: Calliope rarely speaks up for any reason, both because she's got a quiet voice and because she's pretty shy. She speaks in what seems like riddles when she does, usually taking odd routes to get to the point she's trying to make.
xxxxx⇾Cᴜʀɪᴏᴜs: Calliope loves to learn, though she prefers learning on her own, rather than in a question-and-answer scenario. She can often be seen trying to figure things out on her own terms, usually while humming.
xxxxx⇾Cᴏᴢʏ: Calliope loves to be warm and snuggly. She can often be found in small hiding places that she either discovered or created. Usually when no such spaces are available, she's tucked in a too-big sweater or has a blanket wrapped all the way around herself.
xxxxx⇾Dᴇʟɪᴄᴀᴛᴇ: Calliope is incredibly fragile, both physically - due to her thin, almost unhealthy physique - and mentally, since she spent her childhood in such odd circumstance. Harsh words or sarcasm have the power to hurt her far worse than they'd hurt anyone else, and teasing is a good way to get her to hide away.
xxxxx⇾Gᴇɴᴛʟᴇ: Thanks to being so terribly delicate, Calliope is also incredibly careful with the world around her. She keeps everything perfectly organized and often uses sweet, quiet words so as not to offend anyone. She is also careful with anything from nature, from trees to sticks so as not to upset the delicate balance of nature.

xxx𝒞𝒽𝒾𝓁𝒹𝒽𝑜𝑜𝒹xxx Calliope was born to a lovely little magical family in Gloucester, England. The small family was full of love and happiness. Unfortunately, at the young age of two, she was kidnapped from her family home without so much as a trace of her whereabouts.
What she didn't know, and would not for years understand, was that her captor, Tomlison, was a vampire that had previously been wronged. He had been a vampire hunter for years, but finally he angered the wrong group. He was attacked by the group and forced to become a vampire while the clan killed his family. For years to come, he often took children that he believed reminded him of his young daughter, Anja. Calliope would never learn the fact that she hadn't been the only child.
She was brought to live in the abandoned home of Tomlison Southwark, nestled on the outskirts of Godric's Hollow. He raised her in the dark and shadows of his mysterious lifestyle, perpetually afraid he would be caught and murdered for everything he had done. He never let his worries fall upon Calliope, though he did teach her that they could only step outside in the dark.
Every so often, Tomlison would begin to grow angry and short tempered, which would always end with Calliope being left alone with the cranky old house elf for a few hours at a time. This allowed her to become more independent as she grew, learning to be able to take care of herself better.
As she got a bit older, Tomlison wouldn't leave as often, instead sitting with the young girl and gently biting into her neck. They would only spend a few minutes together, always ending in Calliope passing out and being lovingly tucked into bed by Tomlison, who felt guilty that he couldn't better control his needs.
One night, Tomlison got upset and left, though he didn't come back for a couple days. Finally, Calliope panicked, trying to leave the house to go find her father. She struggled with the door locks, then magic exploded out from her, knocking the door outward. She ran into the small village, searching for anyone who would be able to help. After a while, a kindly older lady stopped to help her, wrapping her in a warm scarf. As she did so, the woman gasped softly and frowned, but kept trying to warm the frail girl.
Just as the woman was asking questions, Tomlison swooped in, handing the woman back her warm clothes and taking Calliope back to their home, a small growl in his voice. He scolded her for leaving, though she could vaguely discern the upset in his voice. She was marched off to bed, but woken up only a few short hours later by a bunch of people storming in.
There were a group of Aurors, Hit Wizards, and a few people from the child protections team. One of them gently pulled Calliope aside, leading her out of the small house. The girl whined about being out in the daytime, but allowed the adults to take her away. It seemed to happen so fast, but ended up with Calliope being moved into Wool's Orphanage, since she had no family readily found.

■ CHEERFULSummer is very much a happy carefree kid. She’s always smiling and hardly bothered by anything. Not much brings her down and her cheerfulness can be quite infectious. Overly bubbly she enjoys even the most mundane things that others would find boring. ■ FORGIVINGIf things do go wrong with someone, Summer is genuinely one to forgive. Though she’s hardly one to be bothered by what someone says, she’ll accept most forms of apology. It doesn’t take much to convince her to move past an issue. Not wanting to let it get in between a friendship she’ll move on before you know it. Water under the bridge as one would say. ■ NURTURINGWith a gentle hand Summer cares for every living creature and plant that comes her way. Especially plants as she’s got quite the green thump. She helps any and all who need it and is always there for encouragement. You’ll never be shot down by Summer. In fact, she’ll assist someone with whatever task they are trying to get done. No matter how crazy. ■ GOOD NATUREDSummer is a gentle soul. She could never hurt a fly never mind a human being. As such she’s also kind and patient. She’s open to what others have to say and is very easy going. There is no need to feel rushed around her as she’d never make someone do so. She’d definitely be a decent friend with the amount of kindness and flexibility she has towards others. She loves hearing another’s ideas and happy to support the idea in question if she finds it to be a good one. ■ GENIUNEIn short, Summer is an honest individual. If she doesn’t think something is a good idea, she’ll be sure to say so. She won’t go about knocking down someone the hard way, but she’ll be open and upfront about her feelings. She tries her best to be as authentic as possible. Even if that means shooting someone down. ■ SHYSummer can also be quite timid at first when meeting new people. She starts out quiet and works up to being talkative. She can be nervous around those she doesn't know but despite her hesitance she comes around rather quick. ■ QUIRKY Summer can also be a bit of an oddball. She’s quite the plant lover and spends her time talking to any sort of plant life. She spends a lot of her time appearing to be out to lunch. Seemingly staring at nature like it has something to show her. She might even say that nature talks back to her as if plants could have a conversation. Though they may not actually speak, Summer is certain they are speaking in their own way.

CHILDHOODTrent and Jocelyn Sweetwater were two Americans that liked to travel. They met each other at a very young age and evidently became college sweethearts. Eventually the two wed and found themselves in the United Kingdom. It was there Jocelyn found herself pregnant with Summer. They were blessed with a little angel and were happy as could be. One day something happened, and everything changed for the family. Summer’s parents had disappeared from her life, and she’d been dropped off at wool’s orphanage.
The days that followed were not the happiest for Summer. Though she didn’t let that stop her. Instead, she looked to the world around her for better spirits. Anything to do with nature from, the flowers, the birds, and even the bees. Nature was always a constant and on that she enjoyed immensely. The fact that she was cooped up with many other kids wasn’t about to change that. As she grew the memory of her parents faded, though she held on to what little memory she had of them. As she watched many kids leave to have families of their own, she too hoped to have a family some day. Though Summer wasn’t one to push for it. The day a family would come would indeed come. It was just a matter of when.
As she waited for that time to come, Summer had experienced odd things. Things she couldn’t understand like seemingly turning sad looking flowers around. She didn’t get it but one day she was told it was magic and that she’d be going to a special school for witches and wizards. Hogwarts, they called it. It seemed like fun, perhaps she could find a family there.
SCHOOL YEARS I am indeed a magic hat! Don't worry, you're in good hands, though I've got none There's no need to be nervous, child In fact, I already know exactly where you'll go Hufflepuff!
First Year Summer was sorted into Hufflepuff. She managed to have fun and make some friends along the way. She learned about all sorts of new things her favorite being all the new plants she never knew existed. She was looking forward to next year. The next few years were for the same. She continued with Herbology club and enjoyed her electives. Turning fifteen and heading into her OWL year, Summer had yet to be adopted. At this point she didn't think anyone would adopt her. Everyone wanted the cute little kids after all. She was already a teenager so best not to dwell on the negative of it all and just accept things for what they were. At least she had Hogwarts.
Summer managed to get through her exams with minimal trouble. She was not going to talk about Transfigurations. Needless to say she made it into her sixth year and with less of a course load. Sixth year she had less of a course load which gave her a lot more free time, but her year was mostly the same.

xxx𝓟𝒆𝓻𝓼𝓸𝓷𝓪𝓵𝓲𝓽𝔂xxx xxxxx⇾Cʀᴇᴀᴛɪᴠᴇ: Kai has always had a creative way of thinking. Sometimes it manifests as coloring with whatever colors he wishes, sometimes it's doing math upside-down. His creative thinking sometimes lands him in trouble, but luckily it also works well for getting out of trouble too.
xxxxx⇾Cᴜʀɪᴏᴜs: Kai loves asking questions and learning how things work. It allows him to learn at his own pace, picking up knowledge as he chooses. Sometimes he'll interrogate for hours, but he absolutely thrives on it.
xxxxx⇾Sɪʟʟʏ: Whether it's a mid-day dance party or an odd song of his own invention, Kai has a knack for bringing a smile to everyone's faces. He can tell when people need cheering up and he usually knows just how to do it.
xxxxx⇾Lᴏᴠɪɴɢ: When Kai finds someone to love, he loves deeply. He'd do anything at all for someone he loves, even if it's a self-sacrificial move. His love is innocent and pure, and usually manifests with little "gifts" Kai thinks the person might enjoy.
xxxxx⇾Cᴀᴜᴛɪᴏᴜs: Thanks to his strict upbringing, Kai is incredibly careful about doing things. He often asks permission before touching things, especially when it's something he doesn't know much about. Sometimes his over abundance of caution causes him to delay in his critical thinking, since he's scared of getting in trouble for his choices.
xxxxx⇾Cʟɪɴɢʏ: Kai was pretty dependent on others before the big accident, but now especially he's almost completely reliant upon them. No matter his emotions, he seeks out other people for help and affection, especially when he thinks something bad might be coming. Sometimes his clingy nature can be subdued with stuffed animals, but usually a big hug or a pat on the head will cheer him up.

xxx𝒞𝒽𝒾𝓁𝒹𝒽𝑜𝑜𝒹xxx Born to a single mother, Malakai had to learn to deal with not seeing her often. She worked three jobs, and whenever home was usually too tired to do much beyond cuddly naps. Normally, time was spent with his elderly grandmother, who honestly didn't like Kai, since he was a b*****d child. That usually manifested in strict rules for the child, despite his budding curiosity.
His grandmother's annoyance came to a boil when he accidentally broke the tv in an attempt to change to cartoons. The woman was furious, threatening to hurt Kai until his mom came home and decided they'd try to stay somewhere else that night. On the way, Kai tried to sing along to his favorite songs, a game which usually his mom participated in. After driving for what seemed like forever, she spoke, quietly apologizing to him. Of course, this confused the four-year-old, though he initially blamed it on being really sleepy. Suddenly, lights in front of the car got really bright, then he heard the screeching of metal as his body rattled in the car.
It took a while, but Kai was pulled to safety by a fireman and taken on a ride in an ambulance. His mind was full of worry, but he didn't have Mr Phant to snuggle since he'd been in the car too. Luckily, the ambulance doctor was really nice and let him snuggle in her jacket. While at the hospital, a nice doctor told him the fate of his mother and held him while he wept. As the day went on, the boy overheard some doctors saying it was a miracle anyone survived, which confused Kai. A few days later, a professional looking guy took Kai away from the hospital, taking him to a "special home" for kids without parents. Kai didn't really understand, especially with his odd new diagnoses of tourettes. He just wanted to go home and stop hurting for a while....
While at the orphanage, Kai had to learn to deal with his new tics (at least that's what the doctor had called them), which included making odd noise and twitching. His biggest issue was not being able to control any of it at all. Plus, he was pretty sure that Wool's had extra monsters under their beds, despite people saying they really didn't. He just wanted to go back home, but even Grandma didn't want to care for him since his mama wasn't there anymore. For now, he'd stay... at least until he worked up the nerve to run away....
After being at Wool's only a few short months, Kai met a lovely couple called Finn and Caty. They helped fix a toy train, then they played and talked... a lot. And they didn't even comment on his weird twitches! A few more visits cemented their mutual affection, and shortly after summer fell, Finn and Caty officially adopted Kai, saying he'd never feel unloved again. Plus apparently they had a huge family, which was super awesome!

xxx✬PERSONALITY✫xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx EMOTIONAL Susan has always been very sensitive and feels very strongly. Her emotions and instincts guide her, and her thinking always falls in line with feelings, however they swing. Whether or not she intends to, Susan spends a lot of time ruminating on her life and past. She remembers her life very vividly, and relives it over and over, immersed in memories long past and searching for anything to explain the magic that apparently isn’t there. Some days she has better control of her feelings, both other days she drowns in them.
STRONG WILLEDSuzie doesn’t give up, pursuing her goals and interests with undeterred determination. If she knows what she wants, she will get her way. She believes quite strongly that she is in control of her mind, emotions and memories and chooses to drown in them instead of just being consumed by them sometimes-- and no one outside could possibly know her better than she knows herself. Once decided, Suzie has a habit of digging in her heels and doubling down on things. She hates to be wrong and hates to apologize.
PARTICULAR Susan’s space is always immaculately polished, her clothes are always pristinely pressed, and her hair is washed three times over and done without a hair out of place. While what constitutes “perfect” may vary with mood and place, she is very consistently particular about organizing and cleaning and often bothered when other people--particularly her younger brother--do not share the same standards. As such, she has a tendency to get controlling as she works through details and it’s usually easier for her to work alone.
JADEDFrom mean kids, her grandparents’ superiority complex, her parents’ arguments, her father’s disappearance, to the unforgiving child protective services agent, Susan has learned over and over that reality is unsympathetic. This underlying distrust with humanity’s intentions manifests in an early cynical attitude towards the world. More recently it has led Susan to make decisions based on what she feels is safe for herself, even if it doesn’t feel very good.
CURIOUS Susan has always been captivated by all things magic. She eagerly soaks up anything she can and goes through the motions the best she can. While it can take her a while to get her mind around more abstract or invisible ideas, she works well when she has something to physically or visually work with. Her passion has given her an odd reputation with her muggle classmates and while this has made her more solitary, it can’t dampen her curiosity about magic.
✬✫HOBBIES ■ Learning about/ Doing/ Pretending she can do magic ■ Dressing up ■ Cleaning
✬LIKES ■ Magic ■ Flowers and fashions ■ Rainbows ■ Glass figurines ■ Heights--for the view and the serenity
✫DISLIKES ■ Not being able to cast magic ■ Anything out of place ■ Group projects ■ Weather -- any kind of weather effects ■ Rushing
✬STRENGTHS ■ Very good memory about her own life, and about all things magical ■ Independent -- despite her emotionality and preference for people, Suzie has always been able to stay organized and (mostly) take care of herself.
✫WEAKNESSES ■ Jealous -- She might be friends with them still, but that doesn’t mean she won’t resent just about anyone. ■ Overthinking -- Susan spends a lot of time in her own head, and she can overthink anything.
✬DREAMS ■ Being magical ■ Being loved
✫FEARS ■ Disability--going blind or deaf particularly ■ Abandonment--including learning that her parents didn’t just leave, but abandoned her.
xxx✬BACKSTORY✫xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ✬✫EARLY CHILDHOOD Suzie’s earliest memory was when she was five, scattering flower petals in the breeze at her parents’ wedding. She remembers the lacework on her mom’s dress, the corsage on her dad’s suit, the smiles on their faces. Over the next few years, she watched those smiles turn to tears and heard the laughter fade to silence.
The three of them seemed happy enough together, living in a small townhouse in Winchester, England. Her mother, Halinor, made floral arrangements in a flower shop she had worked in since high school; Suzie loved helping, even if it was just making sure tools and books always went back to where they came from. Her father, Guillian, was an herbologist and cursebreaker consultant that ran his family’s gardens in Stirling, Scotland; Suzie loved how he would swing her onto his shoulders and “fly” around with a tennis ball charmed to hover around.
She remembers the first fight. A casual conversation grew heated, and finally, Guillian left through the fireplace. One fight led to another until finally they stopped fighting at all. The separation had been amicable, but inevitably ended in divorce.
✬✫SCHOOL and WOOL’S Amongst her mother’s frequent visitors was one Nari Siddall, and Suzie occasionally saw her son Nimbus at school. Nimbus’s best friend was Wren Winchester, a rude boy who always called her socks and outfit “mismatched”. Once, she overheard the pair talking to snakes. She told their classmates, thinking it would be fun information, but no one believed her. Then in second grade, Suzie overheard the boys talking about how Nim’s mother’s death might not be an accident. This time the rumors started like wildfire. Wren confronted her about starting the rumors, and she lost the fight--no doubt because the boy used magic, Suzie blamed— but he left the school afterwards anyways, leaving her free to befriend Nim for herself. Even though the kids in the class still thought she was weird, Suzie was happy to thereafter have a friend-- at least for a while.
Suzie herself didn’t show any signs of magic as a young girl, no matter how much she tried to make magic happen from the moment she knew it was a thing. At first, it didn’t bother her. She was just a late-blooming child, her wizard-father had always assured. She learned as much as she could about magic in the meantime. Her brother though, almost 7 years younger, was a mere toddler when he started levitating pudding boxes into the shopping cart. Galen was different: His face changed, his hair changed-- everything about him seemed to shift fluidly along.
Galen had other health problems, ones that Halinor struggled to manage. While Guillian was still paying child support, the man himself had gone missing on an extended cursebreaking job. Halinor was caught playing a balancing act between keeping Galen hidden at home (or magical homes nearby) and risking exposure. Ultimately, the child support services witch assigned to their case didn’t think Halinor was doing a good job. Halinor had tried her best to cooperate with the support services--up until they tried to take Galen away. She reacted violently--desperately--and finally they stunned her, and removed Galen and Suzie to Wool’s Orphanage. Suzie found out later that Halinor had been obliviated, and they were to be left at Wool’s.
Initially, Susan was angry but ambivalent, saying that in a few months she’d be going to Hogwarts anyways. When her letter didn’t come, she felt confused and betrayed. Surely this was some mistake. She continued studying what she could, as though knowing the magic would allow her to do it, but the years passed, and still no letter. She doesn’t know if she wants a new home and is constantly back and forth. Part of her insists she’d be fine on her own, but the other half is desperate for a fresh start. A new home, a new family, maybe even a new name.
For a while she was friend with another metamorphmagus called Cassidy; then she was friends with a girl called Harmony. But both of them got adopted without Susan. Bitter and angry, Susan didn't answer Harmony's letters for a long while-- her former friend was off sailing the high seas and she was stuck going to a stupid muggle school.

xxx☻PERSONALITY☺xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx KIND Galen would like to be the kind of kind that heals hurt. Less concerned about nice words or following rules, Galen wants to encourage people to play the game of life to their best -- he listens to people and tries to find what is hurting and help them solve that, or at least face that. This isn’t always what people want or think is right, but it does come from genuine care.
DIPLOMATIC Galen is happiest when everyone can work together. He listens to what people need and looks for opportunities to bring people together for mutual benefit. He’s always willing to compromise or help negotiate a compromise, believing the best plans are always those that have the best parts of many plans. Especially when it’s just him, he’s quick to yield or concede if he thinks it’ll make people work together better. He always asks why people do mean things and is usually willing to make an excuse for them.
PLAYFUL Along with his optimism, Galen has a relentlessly playful spirit. He likes having fun, and he likes getting other people to have fun. Small pranks and jokes are always welcome, and even though he doesn't say rude joking things, he's willing to play along. Due to a heart defect, he can’t always run around and play for very much, but he does what he can-- whether it’s an impromptu dress up session or a meticulously detailed Dungeons and Dragons campaign, Galen just wants people to enjoy themselves and enjoy life.
PHILOSOPHICAL While at his age no one would call it philosophy, Galen does enjoy thinking about abstract ideas or just thinking about things “like an alien”. He tries very hard to make a metaphor out of everything, and to see something deep and meaningful in every whim of the universe.
HONEST Despite just wanting to be kind, Galen has basically been conditioned into honesty -- His meta ability meant his body literally telegraphed everything he felt, from guilt over a small lie to hurt at an offhand comment. Even without this though, he thinks it’s always best to be honest, and “white lies” are cover ups for deeper issues that could be better off discussed or accepted. The only time Galen will ever even try to be less than honest is for some in-game strategery.
☻☺HOBBIES ■ Playing make-believe games ■ Dressing up ■ Reading comic books/ Watching cartoons
☻LIKES ■ Stories about his parents ■ Horses ■ Quidditch ■ Different weather ■ Ice cream (which he can't have)
☺DISLIKES ■ Any arguing or conflict ■ Trying to control his meta changes ■ Authority figures (police, child support services) ■ Spoil-sports-- he’s actually okay with cheaters, but it’s people who don’t want to play the game and spoil it for others that makes him upset. ■ Cheese (which he can't have)
☻STRENGTHS ■ Optimistic-- he chooses to see the good in everyone ■ Resilient-- Strike him down and Galen will get up asking how you did it.
☺WEAKNESSES ■ Rationalizer-- Galen always tries to understand why people do things, or, failing to do that, makes excuses for them. ■ Defiant— Kind doesn’t always mean polite, and good doesn’t always mean lawful, and Galen definitely has his own childish ideas about how things ought to go.
☻DREAMS ■ Of rainbow horses ■ Playing Quidditch
☺FEARS ■ Of people forgetting who he is because he’s always shifting? ■ His sister-- he loves his sister, but he’s a little afraid of her, of making her upset, but also of losing her.
xxx☻BACKSTORY☺xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ☻☺EARLY CHILDHOOD Galen was three when he was taken to Wool’s. He doesn’t remember his parents at all, even if he has their pictures memorized. He doesn’t remember levitating pudding and baby food around, to the amazement and horror of the muggles around. He doesn’t remember shifting colors and faces with every giggle. From Suzie's stories, he knows a little about Winchester, and a little less about Stirling. Instead, Wool’s has been his home, and the Wool's residents his family. He asks Susan a lot of questions about their mother or father, but sometimes she doesn’t reply, saying it’s better for him not to think about things that aren’t true anymore.
As he struggles to control his meta ability, Galen is happy to be homeschooled by Steffi and Luke. He can't read or do numbers very well, but he shows good interest in learning stories, playing games, and helping out around the place. While he can't run around too long without risking heart issues and spends more time sick than he'd like, Galen has proved to be a fairly curious learning and persistent--if forgetful and irresponsible-- about his training--the way he figures, if he wants any shot of playing Quidditch, he has to train up slowly!

EARLY CHILDHOOD Cass was born to a wizard mom and a muggle dad fifty miles north of London, they didn’t intend to have kids, they just didn’t really want to be parents. So when Cass was discovered they were not the typical happy parents. They opted to put the kid up for adoption once he was born as it wasn’t the kid's fault he was here. Another wrench was thrown into their plan when Cass was born with the rare Xylander family meta gene. Born with pink hair and changing every hour or so they couldn't take him many muggle places.
They felt terrible if they kept a kid and had them grow up with them as parents. So with hopes of him finding a good family that needed a child they gave him to Wools with a name and a stuffed dino. He grew up in the orphanage and eagerly awaited a family. He wasn't mad at the parents that made him because didn't keep him, no parents are better than bad ones. Sure it was a bit disheartening to see others get adopted first but he just assumed his family must not be ready yet. He hoped that soon they would be ready to take him home.
