I’m Genevieve, though most people just call me Nyx. It’s been so for a few years, so I’m pretty much used to it. My mother’s half French, so my brother and I ended up having French names, which is pretty cool, except no one says them right ever. I was born in Houston, Texas, and I lived my life in a mix between there and Mexico City, my current residence. I work part time in a flower shop and take art classes during my free time. I’m studying for the entrance exams at the uni. I chose arts as my career, and I plan to be an illustrator. Maybe we’ll all see my comics on every comic book store soon. I love comics and manga/anime, and I’m pretty fond of cosplay too. I’m in a cosplay group with my best friends. I also love music, but I’m picky. It has to really move me with the energy and style of it. My favorite bands are AFI, the Dresden Dolls (and Amanda Fucking Palmer), Patrick Wolf, Tegan and Sara, Paramore and some others. I love singing to my heart’s content and I tend to get weird looks for loudly singing on the streets, but I hardly care. This is my first time roleplaying on a forum, so I'd appreciate if someone could... tutor me on the basics, so to speak. I'm not quite sure of the Relationships part yet, though I understand of course why we need it.

Hey, I'm Jen the Admin. Nice to meet you Forums are superrr fun, you're gonna love it. Some of the coding and stuff is really obnoxious, but you'll get used to it. Basically, you apply first, which you've already done so you're all set with that. Then you make a relationships page, where all the other characters post on you with the "relationships" you have with each other, and you post back on them. It's kind of obnoxious, but in the end it makes everything so much less confusing. You can also sign her up for Quidditch and/or being a Prefect, let me know if you need help finding those boards. And once you're all set with your sign-ups, you can join in the roleplay It's pretty long term, we hope, so we'll be role-playing as much as we can, probably the whole year if the forum doesn't die. We'll put Dominique in one of the compartments, but I'm not sure which yet because she still needs some relationships. Once we see who she's close with, we'll put her with her friends. Most of the characters will end up being her cousins, but there's a few non-Weasleys and a bunch of made-ups too. Hope that helped Let me know if you have any specific questions, I'd be glad to help. Down below at the bottom of the screen is the cbox...it's like instant message, but you have to keep refreshing it. Everyone here is really nice and helpful, so if you have just a quick question then you can ask down in the cbox and I'm sure whoever is on can help you on that.

I was wondering about intros, too. Should I put it on King's Cross? Because seeing as you guys have been playing a bit already, it'd be weird, wouldn't it? And thanks a lot, it did help quite a bit. Sorry if I end up asking really simple things, though. I'll do my best!

Nah, I don't think you need one at Kings Cross. As long as you get your relationships set, we'll put you in a compartment to start.
