NPC DIRECTORY
MINE:
--Keiran--
Julie Andrews: Bridget Hayes
--Oliver--
Amy Adams: Natalie Fletcher
A Ravenclaw in Oliver's year, Natalie caught his attention and led him on for over a year. When one of his friends asked after her regard, she explained that she didn't actually care a whit, and the entirety of Oliver's acquaintances found out about it. His intention to go to University was thrown away as quickly as she had given it to him, so he never went. Instead, he took up on his boat and stuck to writing. Witch.
--Katherine--
Chris Pine*: Mesut Avery
Confident to a fault, Mesut is the sort to spend more time worrying about how he's seen by others than how well he does in classes. He's typically the most socially savvy of the brothers, and is far more outgoing than Kit, even on a good day. As heir, his duties often pull him away from his siblings, but he is frequently the one that initiates activities between the three of them. Wizard.
Shawn Ashmore*: Lucas Avery
The younger of Kit's brothers, Luke is the quieter of the two. He's less self-assured than his brother, but both are very close to Kit. Because neither he nor Kit will end up with the majority of the family money, they are known to mess with Mesut, occasionally convincing him that they're upset with him or whatever the case. Usually, though, Luke surprises everyone with his troublemaker mentality. Wizard.
*note: These playbys are for when the twins are in their late 20s or so. Just here for reference.Nathalie Emmanuel: Ellorie Perot
Ellorie is a woman who moved to the UK from France, and is now a wonderfully horrible influence on Katherine. She is quite good at Divination, but pretends to be a full-blown Seer with visions that always come true. In order to do this, she tells people she had a vision, and then makes sure it happens. For example, she predicted the attack on "a pureblood party," and Katherine ensured it happened at the Zabini Christmas ball. Witch.
--Bentley--
Meg Ryan: Nancy Ashford
Ben's adoptive mother, Nancy is married to Derek - the CEO of the company Ben is set to take over down the road. She's a hugger, and spends her time making and selling crafts and all sorts of things. She doesn't need the money, but she enjoys doing things for others, so things like scarves fit in with that mentality. Witch.
Tom Hanks: Derek Ashford
Adoptive father of Bentley, Derek took to the man as soon as he started working for him. As Ben rose in the ranks at their company, Derek paid more and more attention to how driven the Slytherin Graduate was. Derek is a little on the quiet side, but always means well. He is less judgmental than Bentley expected regarding Baldric, and he's eternally grateful for Derek (and Nancy, of course!). Wizard.
--Declan--
Chelsea Kane: Danica Tross
Danica is essentially Declan's greatest mistake, regret and heartbreak in one. Because Declan was never close to Henry's family, he had no idea that the woman who worked in a salon in their hometown was married to Henry's brother Ryan. And of course, she didn't see fit to tell him, either. Now, she lives down the street from his parents' house, again, as she's decided that she regrets losing Declan and no longer wants Ryan. She took Declan's advice back in the day, so she now runs a catering company. Witch.
Morgan Lily: Anette "Ant" Belmonte
Declan discovered Ant outside the Leaky one day after one of his now-former employees, Charlie, tried to hit her for stealing from them. Turns out, her family is a bit of a mess and she's lost a brother to the Werewolf attack on Hogwarts a few years ago. She's young, but looks even younger, and is more or less staying with Declan until he can get her to tell him where she lives or who her parents are. She's a witch, though of course untrained and without a wand. Declan isn't so sure, though, as she seems very surprised by magic and has never accidentally used it.
Thanks to Khaat for the idea. Love this a lot.
