CHILDHOOD. | Priya was born on the first day of the Year in 2004. It was a snowy night as she and her twin brother made their way into the world. She came first, and then her brother followed minutes later. Twins ran on both sides of the family, so when Ernie and Parvati found out they were having twins, it was no surprise. From the moment Priya was born expectation hung heavy over her. After the war, the MacMillans decided now more than ever they needed to cling to their blood status. Her grandfather, Albert MacMillan instructed his son Ernie to marry someone suitable and rebuild their image as one of the proper wizarding families. While Ernie himself didn't believe that muggleborns or half-bloods were less than they were, he understood what the desire to keep their line pure meant to his father, especially with other pureblood families dying out post-war. And while his father hadn't aligned with the Death Eaters during the war, he warned his son about the dangers of becoming associated with Harry Potter. Ernie felt conflicted on this, wanting both to be a part of the revolution that might free their world, and wanting to uphold the honor of being a pureblood family that his father imparted onto him. He married Parvati Patil, a friend from school, and she agreed to his future plans of rebuilding the families status. Ernie got a job at the ministry and worked his way up while Parvati agreed to stay home and see to the raising of the children and working on their social standing by attending various charitable balls and events. Priya and her brother were put in etiquette lessons since their were old enough to walk and talk. They were trained in social graces and taught from a very young age how to behave in society. Her days were structured with lessons on various languages, dance styles, and musical instruments. Priya took particularly well to the piano. While her brother got to partake in other, more adventurous subjects, most of Priya's free time was spend reading alone. Once her sister was old enough to join her in her training Priya appreciated having a friend; though her sister was lot more rambunctious than Priya ever dared to be. She supposed that was the freedom that came with getting to be a younger sibling and having older siblings ahead of you to fulfil family obligations. |
SCHOOL YEARS. | Whether Priya would attend Hogwarts had been up in the air for quite some time. Her grandparents wondered it maybe it might be better to enroll her in Beauxbatons where she could continue her study of etiquette along with her magical education. But her mother insisted that their children go to Hogwarts like they did. Priya and her brother boarded the Hogwarts express together that fall with very different expectations. Her brother was grateful to get out from under their parents thumb and be able to be his own person. Priya however, the people pleaser that she was, thought better than to be do anything that might ruin the reputation her family so badly wanted her to uphold. She made friends easily, being a very sweet and charming girl. However, she was careful about those she let close enough to truly know her. Her father had made a comment once that the people you surrounded yourself with showed the world who the real you was, and while that comment hadn't been directed at her it did stick with her. Priya loved her classes and loved getting to learn about magic and actually use it. She made sure to keep at least slightly above average marks in all of her studies so that her parents wouldn't worry about her class standing. Having grown up studying, she was good at the academic part of school, but the practical bits were challenging at first. Though, through the years she began to excel, particularly in Defense Against the Dark Arts, Herbology, Potions, and Charms. She also loved flying, though Quidditch, she knew, was out of the question for her. Though more recently, conversations surrounding arranged marriages have been coming up more frequently at home. For both her and her brother. While Ernie had chosen a suitable wife, his parents wanted to make sure their grandchildren didn't make any mistakes when it came to continuing the hard work Ernie and Parvati had put into their rebuilt image. While none had been set in stone yet, Priya had a sinking feeling in the pit of her stomach; they were coming. She wasn't sure she'd be able to stop it even if she wanted to. |

RP SAMPLE (200 words min.)
Abi had got back to town for good just a few days ago. She had been around for the holidays and then went back to Boston to pack and sort things out there. And now, just a few days into the new year she could officially say that she was back. It was a weird feeling and not something that Abigail had ever expected to be able to say again after she moved to Boston after graduation. But she also never expected to say that she had a dead mom and was now helping to raise her sister for the next few years. She had done fairly well staying under the radar for now. She wasn’t sure what had her so anxious about being recognized. It was a small town afterall. There was no way that she could hide. Not while she was about to start working at the bookshop on Mainstreet, and, especially not now that they had almost completely run out of groceries.
She walked into Bob’s market and wondered if any time had passed at all. It looked nearly the same as it had when it was her and her mom doing their weekly grocery trip on Wednesday nights. Abi shook that thought out of her head as she navigated her cart down the aisles. Abigail crossed items off of her list as they landed into the cart and once she had tossed in the final item, she turned down the alcohol aisle. She had never legally purchased Alcohol in her hometown, but she had perused the shelves with friends before paying older guys to get the goods for them back in her highschool days.
And then it was like she was back in highschool as the familiar voice floated down the aisle to her. “Same bad taste in beer huh, Iris?” Abi smirked before casting her old friend a glance as she pulled a case of PBR out from the shelf in front of her, tucked between a case of white claw and a row of Coors bottles. There didn’t seem to be a great organizational system to this aisle, but then again, the whole store was kind of that way.
