Ilvermorny Quest Rules, Characters, and Cast

Rules:

 There are two basic types of checks; to perform an individual action, we are going to use Bo3 d100s
plus any relevant bonuses vs a set DC. This may also be used when fighting non-wizard enemies in
general. The DC may go up or down due to prior actions. For figuring out certain non critical competencies, it is Bo3
d100 where high rolls will grant a future bonus. Examples would be dancing, cooking, sewing, ect.


For combat against a wizard it is usually Bo3 d100 vs
your enemy’s own rolls. In combat there can be up to 3 rounds depending on how many checks you win. 3
successes will normally end combat immediately, 2 is a win for that round with the other party
sometimes receiving a malus to further checks or being narratively made more disadvantaged, 1 win is a
loss and proceeds to another round, 0 wins is a total defeat. In the case that the fight goes all the way to
3 rounds the party with more total successes wins or the fight may end in something like a draw,
depending. Clever write ins or suggestions can have
positive effect, possibly even negating the need for a battle roll.


For narrative decisions, a list of options will usually be provided, the one with the most votes gets used,
though if it is 1 vote away or something, the losing choice may have some of it used in the winning
choice when narratively appropriate or a timed final destination vote may be used depending on how
important the vote is. Write ins are always welcome though I reserve the right to veto ones that have no
 chance of working, would break the game, or are pants on the head and would end the game, like using
 the Killing Curse in front of the entire student body and the teachers. I will not stop you if everyone
decided to do something fairly dumb because I want real choices to have consequences and characters
can die due to decisions made.


Dramatis Personae


Jennifer “Jenn” “Jenny” Sanders


A pure blood 16 year witch with light blue eyes, long blonde hair the color of straw that goes past her shoulders, to just above the middle of her back which has a very, very slight wave to it, though she does straighten completely it sometimes; usually wears it loose, in a fish-tail braid, or tied up into a messy bun, if she is fighting or such. Fair skinned to the point she doesn’t really ever tan. Has a handful, literally, of freckles on her cheeks and bridge of her nose. Conventionally pretty. She has her ear lobes and cartilage of her ears pierced along with her navel. Jennifer is quite thin with a small bust, slightly above an A cup, though she does have some curves; her butt is her best feature she believes, and is perky.


Has Veela blood from her great grandmother; only manifests in being more attractive than average, a touch more charm, blonde hair and fair skin, and being able to go from being nice to a terror instantly. Speaks fluent French.


 5’3 and weighs ?? pounds. Typically dresses in a somewhat preppy manner when not in robes though she is not above a tee, jeans, and all-stars to dress down. Former Gryffindor, yet to be Sorted at Ilvermorny. She is brave and adventurous, somewhat to the point of foolishness but has enough cunning and deviousness to be offered Slytherin as well as Gryffindor. Greatest goal in life is ??? Can have a somewhat foul mouth and act kind of stand-offish until she likes you, after which she is a loyal and true companion. Very skilled at charms, good at Battle magic, and smart enough to be competent at every thing else. Has a NEED FOR SPEED due to her dad showing her the wonders of going fast in his vintage muscle car as a girl. Fiercely loyal to her friends, over protective of her sister Emily and “sister” Macy. Loves both her parents very much, though she is more of a daddy’s girl. Somewhat sheltered. Due to her upbringing, has a considerable amount of knowledge about muggles compared to most born into the magical world.


Shares a magical connection with her twin sister, Emily, due to circumstances of their birth. Can feel trickles of emotions and to a small degree, thoughts. Can usually tell where to go in order to find her and gains an advantage when fighting alongside Emily. Can throttle or mostly shut off said connection though doing so is extremely uncomfortable, like losing a limb as part of her soul is mixed in with her sister’s and vice versa.


Enjoys Charms work, sparing with her sister, rubbing it in that she is older by two hours, giving Emily shit, breakfast foods, especially crispy waffles, acting like an older sister to her twin and young friend Macy, thrill seeking and adventure, not dying to trolls, and going fast in her dad’s car, Sally. Dislikes flying practice, losing to her sister at anything, pushy men, tomatoes, her dad flirting with Macy, nearly dying to trolls, and people bullying those she is close to.


Bicurious with a slight preference to ??, possibly due to Veela blood.

Emily “Emmy” “Em” Sanders


Identical twin sister of Jennifer, though born 2 hours after her. A half inch shorter due to not eating her veggies as a kid, according to her sister at least. Slightly bustier due to drinking her milk as a girl, according to herself. Keeps her slightly wavy straw blond hair just a touch shorter than Jennifer and puts it up in a ponytail when playing Quidditch or dueling. Enjoys muggle baseball caps and dresses similarly to her sister though she like skirts a bit more. An ace at transfiguration and a decent enough flyer to make the Hufflepuff team as a chaser, though the year she got in was a pretty bad one for the quidditch teams in general. Has a NEED FOR SPPED due to her dad showing her the wonders of going fast as a girl.  Slightly more of a social butterfly than her sister, befitting a former Hufflepuff; yet to be sorted at Ilvermorny.


Shares a connection with her sister which lets emotions and some thoughts slightly leak through; took some of the burden when Jennifer used the Killing Curse due to that. Can throttle or mostly shut off said connection though doing so is extremely uncomfortable, like losing a limb as part of her soul is mixed in with her sister’s and vice versa.

Tries not to curse though when it really matters, she can have a mouth like a sailor. Momma’s girl, though she loves her dad dearly, especially since both can speak Parsletongue. Has been known to play pranks with her twin involving doing their hair the same, dressing identically and confusing their classmates; has taken Transfiguration exams for Jennifer while her sister handled Charms for her a couple of times.

Likes being somewhat lewd. Enjoys Transfiguration work, dueling her twin, flying and Quidditch, giving Jennifer crap, pranks, teasing people, her dad driving way too fast, adventure, her sister not dying to trolls, and dinner foods, especially Sunday roast. Dislikes losing to Jennifer at anything, vegetables aside from tomatoes, dress codes, indecisive men, people bullying those she is close to, waking up early, her sister and David nearly dying to trolls. Slight pervert even if she doesn’t use foul language.

Macy “May” “MayMay” “Mace to the Face-y” Wright


4th year Gryffindor, 14 years old, about to turn 15 in the summer. Daughter to a pair of working-class muggles; mom is a nurse and dad is an accountant working to clean up after various companies. Her parents were often away from home when she was young and even now; as such she suffers the effects of some emotional neglect and likely a touch of autism. A certifiable genius with a near photographic memory; being shy and being the smartest person in the room put people off when she was young, before she discovered she was a witch. Was befriended by a concerned Jennifer when she discovered a small first year near tears and halfway across the castle from where she should have been. Jennifer quickly became here first real friend and a positive influence on Macy; while she is still somewhat introverted and has difficulty with others or processing her emotions, Macy now has a small friend circle, is more confident and outgoing though still shy at heart. Dislikes being touched though she makes exceptions for Jennifer and Emily.


Good with the technical aspects of virtually any subject though she can struggle with the practical aspects of spellwork and is a hair magically weaker than normal due to chance. Absolutely no sense of direction, to the point she could get lost walking down a straight hall and has trouble remembering faces, in part due to avoiding looking directly at people in general or making eye contact.


4’11, ?? pounds, straight, dark brown hair with a touch of red which falls to just over the top of her shoulders past the nape of her neck, very slightly olive toned but fair skin with a few beauty marks on her body and light green eyes. Has the kind of awkward lankiness teen girls all experience, though she does have decent proportions in her bust and butt. Wears small square framed glasses, and normally doesn’t use make up aside from some lip gloss or concealer for blemishes perhaps, unless it is a special occasion; in her muggle attire, she dresses basically and in neutral tones or simple outfits like jeans with a tee, almost like she doesn’t want people to pay attention to her. Because her friendship with Jennifer and Emily has influenced her some, she does have a few more flashy outfits as well as some simple accessories. Likes dresses or long skirts if she is feeling confident that day.


Enjoys reading muggle novels, being around her “sisters” and friend David, being included in things, brewing and chemistry, sweet foods and candy, having handsome, older blond men say she is pretty, seeing her parents, having her own money, adventures of the non-lethal kind. Dislikes conflict, flying, physical labor, going fast, people leaving her out of adventures, being touched aside from her close friends or parents.


Speaks conversational French, German, Italian, and is competent in reading Latin.


Sexuality is unknown as of now, though she has kissed Jennifer and Emily in a friendly, non-sexual manner, believes both are beautiful and has talked of some boys she thought were handsome before; blushed terribly at Lucerne complimenting her.

David “Davy” “Dave” Adams

16-year-old 5th year Gryffindon with dark black hair he keeps long enough to fall just over his ears, olive skin, and hazel eyes. Half-blood, son to a mother who is part of the Wizgemont, on the Board of Hogwarts Governors, and a very wealth muggle father who is part of the House of Lords. 5’8 and relatively fit. Considered by more than a few girls at Hogwarts to be quite handsome.


A fast friend of Jennifer and Emily since their 1st year and shares their sense of adventure as well as sense of humor. Loyal to the point of being injured to protect Jennifer when he pushed her out of the way of a troll’s club and had half the bones in his body broken for the effort. Seeks to prove himself as more than just a spoiled rich child of his influential parents; has a contentious relationship with them, especially after they pressured Hogwarts to expel his friend or possibly even get her jail time. Dresses posh when not in robes and can act out-going though he is actually more reserved and thoughtful in truth.


Currently walks with a slight limp on his left side though has been assured it will fade with some time. Brave to the point of self-sacrifice. Had a small crush on Emily Sanders in 3rd year though after a date in Hogsmead and talking with her, chose to simply remain close friends as they did not really click though he is still somewhat interested in the blonde Hufflepuff girl.


Enjoys using his wealth to treat his friends, helping them out with problems or studying, having people like him for more than his money or parents, herbology, cooking, watching Emily play quidditch, doing the exact opposite of what his parents expect of him, not dying to inferni or trolls, and soft pretzels. Dislikes preferential treatment, seeing his true friends hurt, not seeing Emily for a year, seafood, how over protective his parents are, and Giant Finnish Prikka Bees.


Straight as can be. Has gone on a date with Emily in the past and got a quick consolation kiss when they mutually decided they didn’t click and the twins have seen him flirting with female classmates several times.


Patronus: A Red Kite


Bonuses:

Herbology +10

Battle Magic +5

Cooking +20

Brave. Is unaffected by normally terrifying situations. Has literally tossed himself in front of someone to save them.

Physically fit. David is in good shape and physically far stronger than the girls. Grants a bonus to opening stuck jars or moving heavy boxes for Emily.


Lucerne “Lucey” “LuLu” Sanders


Pure-blood father to Jennifer and Emily. Former Slytherin. Relatively tall compared to his wife and daughters at around 5’10. Dark blond hair he keeps short, deep blue eyes and normally clean shaven though he would grow a bit of scruff if not for his wife telling it tickled too much when he “kissed” her. Is in good shape considering her is over 40; likes dark muggle tee shirts with his favored bands or funny quotes along with fashionable blue jeans when he doesn’t have to wear robes or dress professionally. Wears a simple gold band on his left ring finger and always has a necklace strung with his murdered parents wedding rings under his shirt.


Speaks enough French to get by and some German. Parslemouth.


Has been accused by his wife, rightfully so, of spoiling his daughters rotten though they try not to take advantage of him too much; emphasis on the too. Loves both equally though he dotes on Jennifer a bit more just like she shows a bit more outward affection towards him; enjoys that Jennifer still calls and thinks of him as ‘daddy’ instead of something more mature as he still thinks of her as his little girl.


Deputy Director of the Department of Muggle Affairs for two decades; after the War ended, the Ministry started cleaning house and he ended up with the position despite having only worked there for a year due to under staffing. Inheritor of a decent fortune from his mother and father after they were killed by Death Eaters for assisting Muggle-born and their muggle neighbors in evading Voldemort’s minions, helped take down the Death Eaters who broke into his parent’s mansion after his father and mother fell to them.


Lucerne incredibly protective of his wife and daughters. Despite being a certifiable goofball and a bit of a pervert most of the time… Jennifer and Emily have seen him truly angry twice from them or their mother being threatened. Neither ever wish to see it again; despite his normal demeanor, Lucerne is the head of field operations for his department, fought off the people who killed his parents when only 17, as well as three Death Eaters later to save his future wife. Has Auror training. Can be very scary if he needs to be. Skilled in charms, battle magic, potions, DADA, muggle studies, and is an Occulemens.


Owns a black and silver striped 1967 Mustang Fast Back which has been tuned and possesses a few enchantments named “Sally”; has a Need For Speed. Can be kind of a lecher, though he has complete loyalty to his wife such that he would make Helga Hufflepuff herself proud.


Patronus: A grey wolf pup


Nymeria “Meri” Sanders


“Pure-blood” mother to Jennifer and Emily. Former Hufflepuff. Very petite, 5’0 with extremely light blonde hair and soft blue eyes; a hand full of freckles which the girls inherited. Keeps her hair long, well past her mid back. Loves muggle fashion, culture, and TV dramas like General Hospital.


Has Veela blood from her grand mother; manifests in having vaguely supernatural charm, beauty, slowed appearance of aging to the point she could be mistaken for being only in her late 20s or early 30s, a particular proclivity for pyrotechnics, and small birds liking her. Speaks fluent French.


Has been accused by her husband of being too strict with her daughters, rightfully so given they were both spitfires as children; loves her girls unconditionally however, and is supportive of them both. Dotes on Emily a bit more simply because her slightly younger child is a mama’s girl and Emily reminds Nymeria of herself a tad more as a teen; tries to be stricter with Jennifer just because she is the elder sibling, even if it was just by two hours. Former Chaser and Captain of the Quidditch team for Hufflepuff, helped them win the House Cup in her 7th year.


Inherited a decent sized fortune after her mother died on a crusade against Voldemort and his followers; her grand-father passed away in his sleep during her 6th year. Had her life saved by her future husband in the Battle of Hogwarts and began dating him shortly after. Despite her “pure” lineage, she has never subscribed to the ideas of blood purity or wizard supremacy; along with her husband she passed those ideas on to her daughters. Has a number of muggle friends in the neighborhood and participates in dinner clubs, girl’s night out, and other activities with them.


Nymeria is a competent duelist and extremely skilled with Transfiguration, a trait her daughter Emily shares with her; good with Herbology, Care of Magical creatures. Fiercely protective of her husband and children. Strongly believes her husband’s car will be the death of him given his proclivity for maxing out the engine. Can drive well enough and is still very skilled on a broom. A top-of-the-line Firebolt custom sits in her closet which has had its charms limiting speed removed as well as being personalized for her small size and flight habits; has A NEED FOR SPEED on broom, at least.


Wished for more children but a difficult pregnancy with the twins left her unable to have any more without a very high risk of miscarriage; has never told Jennifer or Emily that fact out of fear they would blame themselves.
