Hello, my name is Invidia Thorn
I'm a daughter of Thorn family.
I'm 11 years of age.
This is my first year attending Hogwarts.
The house I'm in is yet to be decided, though I basically know where I'm going.
People say that, in a nutshell, I'm composed. I neither ooze nice feels or are unnecessarily mean. I don't really see the point doing either. This makes me seem a bit lacking in compassion, but I do show it to those I feel deserve it. I am a person though with a cutting sense of humor and have tendency enjoy other's slip up. Nothing bad or malicious, just the kind of event that I'd make sure never happens to me and is done with (some) lack of ill will. Some would say I can come off as selfish. I'm not selfish, just reluctantly to let go.
My background story is simple. I was born the third daughter to James and Circe Thorn, on a early November day. I have lived a privileged life in our tucked away manor. I found it all rather dull. We lived none to far from other pure-blood families. We went to gatherings with other pure-blood families. We went on trips to the continent with other pure-blood families. We even hosted parties, with the same people. The same thing over and over and over again. The only person who made all this slightly barely was the rare times when Erik Bonecraft. The boy was a darling, still is.
My Father isn't fond of his mother, a pure-blood to be sure, but doesn't seem to hold fast to the traditions that have led to us close net group of overly paranoid and seedy families. In truth, I think she is brave to have turned her back on the whole thing or perhaps it is just common sense. 'We are a dying group, with our privileges and our mask now removed,' my mother is always saying. Yet we continue, my oldest sister is due to marry within our circle and my second oldest sister is set to the same. I know that is expected of me to follow suit and I don't want to fall short of the goal, but I'll do it in my own way. I will not be a mere accessory or token, I won't play the perfect little daughter forever. No I know of a way out of this and it starts with getting to Hogwarts. Which is perfect since I just got my letter.
I enjoy my solitude or rather I enjoy being with a small group of trust friends, who are willing to play chess with me, read the same books, and maybe even a few games of snap. I do love a good surprise and a sparks to go with them.
I despise loud, large and noisy groups. It explains why I've never been able to get into Quidditch, enjoy parties, and I despise yelling. Screeching, screams, scratching all set my teeth on edge. Nothing pisses me off more, except maybe whinging.
I look like me. I have rich, long black hair that I keep pulled back into a tail. Black eyes, straight nose, pretty lips; plus given my average height and lean form...I bound to be a beauty.
My wand is a beech wood with unicorn core and is about 10 inches and a bit brittle.
My pet is a none at the moment.

Hello, my name is Locke Gale Thorn
I'm a great lady.
I work in Freelance for the moment.
I'm 31 years old.
The house I was in was Slytherin
I may seem witty, easy going and nearly come off as lazy at times but I'm really very hard working and can get very serious when the time calls for it.
My background story is is one of immense easy. I grew up the youngest and only girl in the Thorn family. My father sometimes over looked me in favor of my older brothers, one of whom were already half way through their Hogwarts career. The rest of my family however didn't forget me. My brothers would come home and show all sorts of things that they learned at school or had caught outside. Especially Nyle's, I know I'm not suppose to acknowledge that he is in fact a live, but he wasn't my closest sibling. James always seemed more the father figure, there to scold Nyle when he did something wrong or to heal my cuts and bruises. He still is that figure for me.
My mother, well she tried her best to make me a fine lady. I was tutor by the best dance, piano, etiquette, music and broom riding instructors that my family could afford. I spent the years dreaming of my 11th birthday and the escape I'd have one I was at Hogwarts. Sadly, the lessons really didn't stop, except the broom-riding, dancing and etiquette. They were simply replaced with different types of lessons. How to hold oneself when being slighted, how to insult someone without appearing too, and the most important how to escape embarrassing social situations. Entering the endless games that that those in the Circle played were far more tiring than Professor Binn's class, sadly I couldn't fall asleep for them.
So of course the minute I was free of my duty to Hogwarts and my brother became the head of the Family, I got out of town. I traveled to Egypt first, explore the many amazing sites and helping to explore newly found ones. Then I got the offer to go join a dig in Northern India, which was followed by a trip to Chile (the Andes), Spain, Germany, and a small trip to Russia for source references. The trips proved that I could accomplish much with my N.E.W.T in History of Magic (one of my 6). Would sporadically pop up at home, share my adventures and tales then leave again. That changed when I was 26. 5 years ago, I was told not to return. I spent it in Italy, reading about the events that changed by brother Nyle's life in the Daily Prophet. At the end, I felt like I couldn't not go home. So I did. For once I stayed for more than a month, just to be around and supportive of my older brother. I could see the strain the whole thing had on him, that was the year he gain that ugly white streak in his hair and that he also got promotion to be Head of the Witch Watchers. After that I left again for two years to help with the study of ancient runes in some ruins in the Andes which turned out to be curses and some kind of potion. As I helped document the findings to be published, I realized that I had no further interest in globe trotting. The whole world tour thing had lost it glamour after the feel of home. So I returned. For about 3 years now, I've been part of and hosted lectures for the varies projects that I took part in over the years. Now, as I watch preparations of Mercia's wedding going on I can't help, but think of all the moment I've lost thanks to my travels. Along with the one about the possible marriage I gave up.
I'm just lonely now, I guess.
I enjoy finding things out. Whether that what will light up the faces of those I love, things from the past or just completely a puzzle. Its the feeling I enjoy, that feeling along with the warm glow I get when I've completed something or when I come home to see the eager faces of my nieces.
I despise barriers, insults, paperwork, long broom rides and when people dig through old wounds.
I look like a mix of my parents. I have my father's black hair, stern chin and straight pert nose. While I have my mother's violet eyes, petite form and frizzy hair. My skin use to be pale, but now I have a rather nice tan.
My wand is a 10 3/4 inch Fir wood with dragon heartstring core. Slightly springy.
My pet is a yet to be decide. I had an owl, but she died. Then I got a snake, I think he was eaten.

Hi, my name is Mercia Moon Thorn
I'm a lady.
I use to work as a Lobby and Reception Area Secretary.
I'm 19 years old.
The house I was in was Slytherin
I may seem direct, almost mechanical when I'm working but I'm really an open and interesting person. I'm organized, playful and I love to make things look pretty. I have ambition, don't get me wrong, I just can't figure out which way to go with it.
My background story is simple. I grew up in the proud pure blood family with the idea firmly printed in my head that I was to carry more than myself, I was too carry my family's legacy. I carried it well through out all of Hogwarts. Seven years of joy, that I spent being rather self-absorbed. I'll admit it, I didn't hold back on my opinion of others and neither did many of my friends. I suppose I've gotten better, especially since I must wear a uniform.
During those years, I found my love. Fashion. I started at first with just knitting finding that I loved mixing colours and textures. I learned both the magical and the muggle way of knitting, the stitching, then sewing. By the end of my 7th year, I was taking request for specially made dress by my fellow Slytherin girls. To say the least I was popular. Still when I left Hogwarts, I found that I was at lost with what to do with myself. It had always been my intentions before I had found my passion, to go into the Ministry. I had wanted to follow the path of my Great Aunt. Who had started as secretary and ended her career as a Chief in the International wizard Court. So I entered the same path. Which explains my job and how I found my love. He had been offered a job when he had left and by the time I had first seen, well he had been doing it for awhile. I use to watch him every time he came into the Lobby. I swear I could feel when he arrived and I knew when he left. Slowly, we formed a greeting with each other, then we chatted, then we started to snog in corners...I'm never quite sure when we made the jump. Yet we're here now and my mother couldn't be happier, she loves helping to set up a wedding. I am making my own wedding dress. It's a challenge since I keep changing my mind, but I know that Cygnus will love me in just about anything. Except a bin bag, I don't he'd like that.
I enjoy my family, parties, clean slates where I can use my vision to make it look pretty. I seriously hope we get our home after we're married. So I can as pretty as I like...with little bits of Cygnus's opinion here and there.
I despise barriers. They come in all forms insults, obstacles, disapproval. Normally I shake them off and keep moving forward, but sometimes I need to come up with some backhanded ways of getting what I want. Of course Cygnus already knows how forceful I can be when I'm determined.
I look like a black haired, black eyed, lean and pale girl. I'm about 5'6" and I am sadly a little too pale.
My wand is a Elm wood at 9 1/2 inches, with Unicorn tail hair core.
My pets are two lovely black cats named Jub-Jub and Snatch.
