Car here!My name is Carleigh, but I go by Car virtually everywhere online. I'm 27 and have been roleplaying since I was 10 years old. I started out roleplaying wolves, then vampires, then some other sites I don't remember very well, and lastly HM. I joined HM around 2010-2011 while I was still in high school. I've always loved to read and write, but since the original site closed down ages ago, I haven't been doing much of either. I graduated in 2012 and didn't start college until 2017 because I wanted to be an actor, but gave up that dream pretty fast. I graduated with my associates degree in nursing in 2019 and worked on a neurosurgery/orthosurgery floor (we took urology and general surgery cases, too). I am currently taking a long needed break from the bedside after the stress of this past year, but I plan to one day get my nurse practitioner license in mental health.
I also sing, play guitar, play video games, and spend time with my lovely fiance, Justin, and my dog Penny and cat Lady. I am a night owl. Uhhh... idk what else.

A Wild Travis Appears!My name is Travis (he/him), it's nice to meet you!
I started role playing way back in 2001 on the official Warner Bros. Harry Potter message boards. I was nine years old and the majority of threads were preteens looking for girlfriends and boyfriends. It was weird. In 2004 I discovered the vast world of Proboards role playing, I don't remember much from that site except that my character was the oldest looking thirteen year old in the world. Anyway, I joined the first iteration of this site when I was 16, and wrote happily there for the next five or so years.
When I wasn't pretending to be a teenage wizard on the internet, I was busy studying at The Ohio State University. I started college in 2013 shortly after the original HM closed down and received my bachelors in English in May 2019. Today I work in sales for a Fortune 100 and dream of returning to college to be a professor, but y'know, Covid.
I was born and raised in the cornfields of central Ohio, but I moved to the city when I was 25 and have never looked back. I share a townhouse with my fiancee and two dogs, Gigi and Frankie.
As a writer my favorite subjects are comedy, crime, and postmodernism. I like to think my characters are fun. I'm super excited to write with all of you guys again, and to our new members: I can't wait to start plotting with you!

Hello! My name on the streets is Ella, I started on HM in 2010. HM really got me into RP, which probably kept me out of trouble as a youth. But, before that I was on a couple Harry Potter forums on Xanga, but honestly those were very... let's just say that my little mind was not ready for that R rated content. My first character was Rose Parkinson on a Marauder's site. It was pretty fun, but kind of awkward that after you wrote your post, people on the forum commented below it being like, "that's not what he meant!" "what's wrong with you!" I mean, I guess it really gave you a sense of what the other characters thought of yours.
I digress. I have a bachelors in English and a minor in Creative Writing, but I work in sales, which is creativity draining if I do say so myself. But at least at the end of the day I get to sit on the couch with my husband, two dogs (Wicket and Jellybean) and our three cats (Fat Steve, Wade, and Queenie).
I am not very exciting, but I have been compared to Ann Perkins from Parks and Rec, Jessica Day from New Girl, and Ginny from the Harry Potter books (not the movies, they destroyed that girl). I'm a Slytherin, I have a wolf patronus, I would not be an animagus, and probably would have some crups as pets, because they dang cute.

Hi HM!
My name is Lindy (she/her) and I played Rose Zeller, Margaret Gadsby, Portia Donaghue, Matilda Beake, Jackie McKinley, and surely many other neglected characters on Old HM. Thankfully, I kept in touch with a few other original members and have found myself here! (I could not have kept up with this in school, but post-graduation... yeah.)
(So now I play... Rose Zeller, Portia Donaghue, Jackie McWilkinleyson, Florence Sang, and LM Adler. More to come, I expect. I have been told that there's a general unhinged Nancy Drew vibe to my characters? Also most of them are Hufflepuffs for some reason.)
In Life, I am a biological data scientist and an amateur violist and I have a lovely old lady dog in Massachusetts.

Hey it's JC!My name is Jessica (she/her), but I go by JC. I'm 25 and I joined HM around 2010-2011. I was devastated when the site closed down years ago and so I stopped roleplaying since then but when I saw this revival pop up I couldn't help myself but coming back to Hogwarts! I graduated in 2015 and started college in the graphic design/marketing field. I'm graduated now and am out working with Disney travel doing graphic design and social media coordinating.
I've been pretty sluggish during the pandemic and haven't really been doing much outside of work and trying to see friends. Excited to reconnect with some of the OG HM members and meet new members as well!
I currently only play Silas Valentine but plan on bringing some of my OG characters back once I get back into the swing of roleplaying again.
