Title: Oh Being New


Sparrow Honeysett - May 1, 2009 06:26 PM (GMT)


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

Oh let's see, I suppose I'll start with my name: Amber. It's nice, it's simple, and it's my real name, so feel free to use it. I'm 21, happily married, and live in the middle of nowhere in the heart of America. I'm a youth leader at a small country church and by the end of the month my secret plan is to beat all of you over the head with my Bible and convert you to Christianity.
Okay, that's just my little joke. . . I poke fun at Christians, homeschoolers, and military kids because I was/am all of those things. In short, I like to laugh at myself and you are more than welcome to laugh with me. People are funny creatures.
Uhh... I'm not the best at these introductions so I'm gonna move right along and start talking about something far more interesting than myself.

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.
Sparrow is a kind, friendly, good-listening, muggle-born, Quidditch playing, cherry cola craving, military kid. She's one of those people that has the appearance of being good at everything and it's a blessing and a curse, something she'd give up in a heartbeat due to the curve balls it throws at her when it comes to her relationship with her older sister.

What's your posting style like?
You know, I've never in my life been asked this question before and have no idea how to properly answer it. I tend to write up all my posts in Word, read over them several times, and make an effort to make them interesting and easily replied to. I guess I also try to get inside my character's head and really explain things from their perspective. But I dunno if that's a style or not, it's just the way I've always done things. :3

What sort of plots or roleplays are you interested in? Serious or light? Long-term or short?
Both! All! Every kind! It really just depends on what's going on in my life at the moment and what plots are floating around the forums at the time. If I've got the time I love to delve into a long-term plot with a lot of twists and details. But. . . if I'm working to organize summer camp for my youth group I'm happy to join in a few single-thread plots that are rather light and fun.


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

*wild cheers!*

hi and welcome to AG!

I only have one character here, and she might be a bit hard to fit in with your character but what the hey!

Shallah Kosa, shes a veela, old, mercenary and is currently leading a terrorist organization hell on bent on bringing chaos and destruction to britian.

But shes also rather fascinated by all things human, and her first introduction to the human world was at a quidditch world cup match. So there might be something we could do with that. Maybe she could attend a game or run into sparrow somewhere.

Again Welcome to AG! And let me know if you ever want to do some threading.

Hey I'm Jemma...

I've currently got two characters here:

Kelsey Andersson: 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. Kelsey is the youngest of two girls (sister is Mattie Andersson) and is cousin to Nessa and she is currently working on Level Three of the Minsitry as a member of the Accidental Magic Reversal Squad.

Derek D'Ambrosio: Derek is a six foot and 2 & half inches tall guy, with large hazel-green eyes; which any girl could fall right into. He has short, bed-messy brown hair, he doesn't usually use any product unless he is on a date or something. Derek is always clean shaven, unless it is the morning after the night before. Derek is known for his athletic build and is huge smile, even though he is naturally slender, you know that he is strong. He can bench press 290 lbs and deadlift about 300 lbs and also Derek is very fast for his height. Derek has recently had to have glasses, not telling anyone...but he has chosen to have contacts. Derek is a good looking boy, but he has never really believe it. When he was younger he uses to have acne, but due to the wonders of modern medicine his skin is all clear. Derek has a few childhood scars and no holes where there shouldn't be holes. He does have one tattoo of scriptive writing; the word is 'Loyal' and it is on his left wrist. Derek is American and attended Tagetes Academy and graduated in 2014. Derek is currently the Quidditch world Cup Organizer at the Ministry.

*feeble wave*

Sorry it took me so long to respond! The day after I post my intro post my computer catches a nasty virus. Had to wipe the whole thing.

Buuuut, he's back now. *pats her computer* Which means, I'm back as well and ready to get posting here!

Shallah, it'd be really interesting to see Sparrow and Shallah interact. They're quite opposite, Sparrow is a bit of a noble sort. But she's also ridiculously naive so Shallah could easily keep it a secret that she's involved in anything underhanded. And anything involving quidditch sounds like fun to me!

Jemma, your characters sound fascinating! Of the two of them I bet Sparrow would run into Derek first. What do you think of having them bump into each other at the ministry and seeing where it takes us?

Sparrow is a new character for me so I'm really looking for some laid back, fun threads to write her in first so I can get the hang of her and break her into this place.

Derek is a new charrie to me too! I have some threads open, but I am happy to start one afresh for him and Sparrow if you want? The Minstry sounds like a plan!
