Title: The Person Behind Kelsey


Kelsey Andersson - August 7, 2008 11:04 AM (GMT)

Welcome to After Graduation! Why don't you tell us a little about yourself?

<Hi! I'm Jemma, I play Kelsey Andersson. I'm a 25 years College Graduate/Student. I graduated in 2005 from Northampton University (the UK one) with Criminology & Sociology degree; then I worked as a Teaching Assistant/Communicator with Deaf children for two years and in September 2007 I started my second degree in British Sign Language. I start my second year this Fall.

I'm hoping to become an Interpreter, but it is another 1/2 years before that can happen...>

We love you already. <3

Now that you've told us about yourself, why don't you tell us about your character? Here's a quick summary sheet to make it easy.


Describe your character in less than a paragraph.
Kelsey is smart, nice, thoughtful, patient, sensitive, and likes to joke around. But when she get’s past her pressure point, she will explodeswith anger. She's ambitious, helpful and caring with it comes to toher people. By nature, Kelsey is an academic. She loves to learn. At times, Kelsey is reminded of her past and then becomes depressed; but this does not happen as much since she worked at Beauxbatons in France for over a year. When it comes to love and romance, she falls in and out of love very quickly, at her age she should be looking for a man to settle down with...but Mr Right has not yet arrived.

What's your posting style like?
I ahve good days and bad days - in which I can write loads and spend "hours" writing posts and then it can be the opposite way; writing about a paragraph. I am getting better at writing more as I ger more experience...

What sort of plots or roleplays are you interested in? Serious or light? Long-term or short?
I would like Kels to find a man and find some old school friends, but I like long and short plots and serious plots will help me improve my writings more. But overall I want AG to help me with my RP practice/creativity...


Fantastic! Now I hope you've prepared yourself. You're about to be bombarded with welcomes and thread requests from many wonderful roleplayers.

Hello. *gives you a brownie - the chocolate, caramel, cinnamon, and vanilla in it kind* My name is Reg and welcome to AG, Jemma. Here are my lovely little people that dominate my brain.

Mackenzie Dalton: Resident Blind Guy. 19-year-old ex-Gryffindor. WWN Radio Host and Petty Thief. He's a jerk, since he's impatient, stubborn, snarky, sarcastic, and very untrusting/untrustworthy. He gets angry easily and is (a little bit) sadistic. Yes, I put him in the wrong house. He, however, is redeemable. Mostly because he can be nice when he trusts someone or when happy-drunk or when he feels like it.

Scout Vinter: Healer at St. Mungos. 32-year-old ex-Ravenclaw. He looks after a four-year-old female named Addie - his 'daughter' even if she's really his muggle niece (because he's muggleborn and the like). He is very intelligent, but has no common sense or tact. He stutters and is very clumsy. A nice guy all around, but he can unintentionally hurt people from lacking in common sense and tact.

Yoshi Takenaka: Wandering Ghost. 56 years dead... 77 years since he was born... died at age 23. He was homeschooled. A very shy and curious being. He loves to tell stories - whether true, or made up. He can annoy people with all the questions he has, but he doesn't worry too much since people can't kill him. He can be a friendly, nice guy once you get past the fact that he's so shy.

Hello Reg *takes the brownie*, thanks for the Brownie; I needed it!

Do you think that any of your charries could get along with our Kelsey? Kelsey is also Muggleborn, so she could bump into Scout somewhere Muggleish

I love to RP a meeting between Kels and Yoshi...what do you think?

Hello, Jemma! Spiv here!

Lucy Ballantine, age 28, is my first, my darling, who I've been playing for years now. She is a recent newlywed, her husband being Dermot Ballantine. She is Irish and a former Free Blood revolutionary who teaches Muggle Studies at Hogwarts.

Logan Fletcher, age 26, is an Unspeakable, one of the ones working on the fourth unforgivable. He's going to get very screwed by the whole debacle, but will come out of it alright and as a changed man. Logan's pretty hard to get along with sometimes; he's too intelligent for his own good and it makes it hard for him to interact with most people.

Edward Garrow, age 29, is the Junior Undersecretary, and the bad guy behind the fourth unforgivable. He has a massive temper, is a raging alcoholic, and is obsessed with his wayward wife, Ivy Ballantine (long story there, but it involves the Irish Blood Revolution, which ended about five years back). Despite all that, he's a charming and well-liked politician, though his exterior is starting to fray a little bit. He employs Logan Fletcher, Astrella Snipe and Calixtus Ferox to work on the fourth unforgivable and other less-than-savory endeavors.

Will Channing, age 25, is the assistant to the Head of Magical Law Enforcement. He's basically a go-to guy for the Level Two kids, since he's pretty willing to help out anyone who needs it. He's a member of an unofficial "Boy's Club" featuring Wendell Darrow (criminal), Jasper Christie (black market criminal) and Apollo Sinistra (fashion guru). He's really just a lot of fun. As the Head's assistant, he tends to show his face just about everywhere on various Level Two errands. He’s currently investigating the murder of Judy Baines with E.B. Braun.

Constance Fallon, age 24, is a no-nonsense Auror. Her world view is very black and white and she has a rude and abrasive sense of humor. Her family was murdered in her seventh year, which is why she became an Auror. She’s currently sort-of dating E.B. Braun.

Patrick Everard, age 20, is pretty ambitious, but in more of a criminal fashion, and will probably be following in the footsteps of Jasper Christie. Regardless, he's very charismatic and a lot of fun, as long as it's playtime and not business time. He has a job at Dervish and Banges but is also sort of an unofficial curse breaker for the Russian Syndicate, a crime mob operating out of Knockturn Alley. He was sort of dragged into it.

Margot Blanchard, age 18, is a Muggle with the capabilities of a medium. She is calm, intelligent, and American (three things that don't often go together); she's traveled to England to pursue a photography career and also to develop her connection to the "spirit" realm. She’s currently employed by Atlas Caedmon as Rudolph’s translator and babysitter. She'll [eventually] hook up with paranormal investigator and wizard huntress Penny White.

Agatha Jarvey, dead, is a ghost who haunts Jarvey Estate. I don't think they'll interact, unless you goes to the estate very often.

We've already got some Logan/Kelsey plottage, and Arty gave the go-ahead for the Sinistra's Secondhand Shop thread for sometime later this week. We'll see what happens there! ^-^

James would dislike or be indifferent to Kelsey in principle - she's a muggleborn - but he would admire her desire to learn because it's something he himself has.

He wouldn't have romantic wants for her because a) he's gay but more importantly B) she's a muggleborn.

Perhaps there could be something there because James often frequents bookshops, museums et cetera in order to learn new things. Her ambition could possibly allow them to have a business relationship or maybe just allow them to know each other because James is about to start running a paper - maybe she'd have something of an interest there?

Kelsey Andersson - August 11, 2008 06:38 PM (GMT)
@Spiv - I'm rather excited about Rping with you...you sound like we can have some real fun with the plot...

@James - I think that business relationship, Kelesy too is trying to improve herself, so meeting a bookshop sounds like a good idea. I'll keep you posted about joining the paper...

Yoshi Takenaka - August 12, 2008 12:42 AM (GMT)
Hehehe... Scout and Kelsey would probably do all right... and Yoshi would probably get along all right with Kelsey too - and a meeting between them might be interesting (I'd like to see the reaction of different characters to a ghost - even if most who go to Hogwarts may be kind of used to them, he is a wandering ghost so he might catch them off-guard).

As far as Macky... I'm not sure... usually I'm never sure with Mack to be honest considering how unpredictable he is.

Kelsey Andersson - August 13, 2008 09:05 AM (GMT)
Yoshi could spook her while she's doing something on Level Three?
