CHARACTER SPOTLIGHT: Liam Darrow
Angel's character,
Liam Darrow is a quieter wizard found in The Yelling Compass in Diagon Alley. Born on the Isle of Skye, he has a pleasing accent to the ear, and a most pleasing appearance to most witches.
Sometimes he's too cute for his own good. However, Liam has been floundering lately in seeking out a possible partner, with a tendency to put his foot in his mouth. It has led to some odd
blind date attempts! However, should you drop on by to our favourite
Give Me Your Best Shot game, Liam's quite the stir of late with the new Ministry wizards...
"However, the birthday boy seemed none too keen. He had scrubbed up well (not that Johann had ever imagined Liam Darrow might not, he had certainly received the best of both from his parents) but he suffered a social shyness that was not entirely fitting of his flirtatious approaches from behind his shop counter. Alcohol was helping loosen up the former Ravenclaw, at least he thought it was." - Kit's Johann Storm in
Still No Cure for the Common Birthday"How anyone ever managed to get Liam to leave his shop, Elliot would forever wonder." - Mayonne's Elliot Blair in
Still No Cure for the Common Birthday" Liam seemed nervous to dance. Andromeda tried to convince him it was fun." - Milly's Andromeda Gamp in
Still No Cure for the Common Birthday"Now she understood why Johann had led with his height. That was not first date behavior. Was he raised in an Abraxan barn? Honestly, who talked to women this way?" - Jessica's Theodosia Fortescue in
Oh What a Night"Lexus hesitated as he offered his arm but only briefly, barely noticeable. He was being a gentlemen. She had almost forgotten what that was like." - Amberlee's Lexus Dale in
Not all who wander are lost
FEATURED: End of an Era
While AO's legendary seventh years have graduated in June, their lives haven't gotten any simpler post-Hogwarts!
If you're still lingering in their final month at school, keep in mind that the winners of the
Seventh Year Bucket List Challenge have yet to be tallied - and there's still time to sneak in a few more tricks! Of course, there is also
Hogwarts Exams 2011.
Students from third to seventh years will be able to unwind afterwards at the
End of Term Feast. There's also the chance for an American adventure not long after, thanks to the
Hogwarts Summer Trip! While this hasn't been threaded, feel free to assume your students enjoyed a wonderful June getaway to New Orleans!
As the post-school months are in full swing, this is now a convenient time to think about the
Ministry of Magic Mixer and to socialise with some new colleagues. MoM employees are also welcome to join in the discussion. Come and stare at the fresh meat! Love 'em or hate 'em, they're here to stay!
Exam results will be sent by owl on July 15th! Decide your character's fate...
You can also check out what other students will be doing after graduation in the
Dazed & Confused thread.

Class Thread Calendar & Other Hogwarts Resources

New Hogwarts timetable, school calendar, etc. to come as we approach September timeline, along with year group transition of character titles etc. Career changes for leaving students are welcomed.
