Yes, I have only just joined. However, I'd still like to think I have experience of RP, and will dedicate myself to the site, Etc, etc.
So...
Full Name of desired teacher: Remus John "Moony" Lupin
Subject: Defence Against the Dark Arts
Personality: Remus, as a werewolf, obviously displays unrecognizably horrendous behaviour once a month. However, usually, he is kind and thoughtful. He puts others before himself, and is always willing to lend a hand to those who need it. Lupin is loyal to his friends and students, and tries as best he can to teach all he knows about defending oneself. Despite all this, he sometimes appears to be agitated, depressed and ill, mainly due to his monthly Transformations.
History of teacher: Lupin's significant history begins at a very young age, when he was bitten by perhaps the most well-known werewolf in the world, Fenrir Greyback. He feared he would not be let into Hogwarts, but Albus Dumbledore, the headmaster, ordered the building of 'The Shrieking Shack' and a tunnel leading from it the the newly planted Whomping willow in the Hogwarts grounds. At Hogwarts School, he made three best friends: James "Prongs" Potter, Sirius "Padfoot" Black and Peter "Wormtail" Pettigrew. To begin, he did not tell them of his being a werewolf. But finally they worked it out, and became Animagi to accompany him to the Shrieking Shack, where he went each month so as to avoid his attacking anyone.
In later life, Remus joined the Order of The Phoenix to fight Voldemort. In 1993, upon request from Dumbledore Remus returned to Hogwarts to teach defence against the dark arts. At the end of the school year, Severus Snape 'accidentally' let slip that he was a werewolf, resulting in his resignation. In 1997, he married Nymphadora Tonks, and the next year his son, Teddy, was born. Remus died the same year while defending Hogwarts from the Death Eaters.
(Erm, were the last two sentences irrelevant to the time of the roleplay?)
RP sample:
Remus sat in the chair behind his desk, staring out of the window next to him. With each moment of gazing at the clouds in the midnight sky, he grew paler and more apprehensive. Any moment now, he thought nervously, any moment.... His right arm gave an involuntary twitch, and his fist closed around the note on the table, held in place under an empty potion phial. Lupin, it read, I have taken the trouble of procuring your potion again. Thank me later. Snape.
Suddenly, Lupin's eyes jerked wide open. A sliver of white moonlight was creeping around the edge of the cloud. Slowly but surely, the rest of the full moon followed, and soon it was hanging naked in the air. Remus began to twitch all over now, and his mouth slid open. He felt a horrible rush of heat run from the bite scars on his neck and all around his body. With the last of his free will, he stood up from the chair, and the transformation began.
AAAAAAAAH!
Sorry, Accidentally put it here. Will repost in proper place. wherever that is?
