Calling all students, Dark Followers and PA members!

So I have Pavo here- 6th Year Slytherin, wannabe Dark Lord, pureblood supremacist, and a bit (a lot) of a bully. He's just named himself the new leader of the Dark Followers, who haven't been active since last year, and is out to cause trouble for everyone. That means antagonizing Potter's Army members and any other students who don't agree with his aims/get in the way, as well as members of staff who attempt to prevent him from achieving his ambitions.

He's pretty much wide open for anything, but what he needs most right now are DFs (old members or new recruits) for some DF/PA drama, DEs to mentor/help him, and random student threads of any sort. He's not one for 'friends' in the usual sense of the word- he will surround himself with people he sees as worth knowing (aka purebloods or other more distinguished members of society) and uses people as he sees fit, but since he thinks of himself as better than pretty much everyone else these are probably shallow connections at best. He definitely has a fair amount of enemies or people who dislike/fear him and can easily be drawn into conflict, whether arguments or duels for whatever reason. He's probably known to most students, since he's not nice and has always caused trouble though isn't always caught.

So if you need someone to fight with, or would like to have your character join him in his dark aims, hit me up! I'd love to chat any and all plots

Charlotte! OMG I have idea for them, I'll send you pm as soon as I get to my computer

It will be amazing, trust me
I can't wait to tell you, I think you will love idea

*throws everyone at him*

Hit is a PA member so he can bully her if he wants XD

Cronis is neutral but I want him to be influenced in a bad way and join the DFs.

Freyja and Evander are neutral but I think Evan might be able to be influenced as well. Maybe it'd be better for Evander to join instead of Cronis. Hm.

Anyways, they're all at your disposal cx

Casually stepping in to ask that people who have characters they want active in the PA should PM me. Christian and Ace are the only ones up to stuff but we've been trying to get people to join up again since the PA basically shut down last year.

Edit: it's probably fair to say that the only people known to be in the PA right now are those two. People know it's a thing, but members aren't allowed to share with anybody where or when the group meets.

^^What Addie said. Christian is likely the one bringing people in, but if your character wants to approach Ace, they can also do that.

So, yes, Ace v Pavo forever and ever.

I have a DF in the works that I'd like to get up this week. I'm pretty sure she'll be replacing Casey Weasley to free up a canon family for people who want canons.

Okay I sent you pm

^^ what Addie & Jackles said XD Everyone join PA (or the DFs, not fussy) for all the drama XD

Also, @Addie, re: the edit- I was going with the assumption that Ace and Christian are the only public faces of it, but I'm also gonna say that since the DF revival is super recent, no one knows who's leading it yet. I'm guessing Ace has strong suspicions which may or may not be confirmed soon. It won't be a surprise to anyone, I don't think XD

@Kim- *grabs everyone* XD

So, going off what Addie said, even if Pavo didn't know Hit was a PA member he'd still look at her with scorn, I think. Mainly because she's such a black sheep, so he'd think she wasn't worthy of her surname but he'd also probably pity her for being so lost (in his eyes). So I can see him being unpleasant if they ever came into contact, and possibly even taunting her into some kind of fight. Same with Freyja, who I think he's more likely to clash with than Hit, just from reading up on them.

As for Cronis and Evander, we can see who ends up being more susceptible to the DFs and go with that. I'll probably get up some kind of open thread where Pavo makes their return clear, and we can see who wants in on that and who doesn't. I feel like Cronis wouldn't be hard to persuade, but Evander would also be interesting! I actually might have an idea for Evander, which I can PM you if you like


@Jackles- PaceHate (Pate?) is my new OTP.


@Everyone- I'm going to try to get some sort of open thread up soon where allegiances can start to be drawn out (by the DFs, at least) or where we can get a rough idea of who's headed where. I'll link here once I have it! And then hopefully we can have some DF meetings and PA/DF shenanigans later on

Uh, yeah it would be a surprise, since the last leader of the DF was my character Liesl, and if Pavo had tried to join them while she was there, she'd have kicked him out.

All my characters are just going to think he's an idiot, that's all I'm going to say.

Also Selwyn and Destrey will be giving him loads of detentions.

Yep, from what I've read of Liesl, they wouldn't have gotten along at all. My idea, actually, was that he either joined and left pretty quickly (not respecting her approach, since they differ so much), or didn't join for the same reason, but saw his opportunity now that she's left. But I actually think having her kick him out would work even better, since it would give him more motivation to usurp her aims after she's left. He has, after all, just randomly seized power ("just named himself" the new leader, basically) a term into the year, so hardly the poster child for cooperation (on the other hand, his NPC sister might have a lot more in common with Liesl, I think).

Because he is an idiot, let's be real. He's awful. They should hate him. I hate him. I'm under no illusions as to how ridiculous he is as a character and a person. The main aim in making him was to elicit conflict with other students (and authority figures), so that's also great. His delusion and self-importance (as well his misguided aims and beliefs) mean it's pretty much inevitable.

As for Destrey and Selwyn, that's perfect! Honestly I'd love to get him in trouble as often as possible. It would frustrate him and just make him act out more, culminating in an annoying game of cat-and-mouse. Would probably teach him to be more subtle, too.

If you'd like to thread any of your lot, students or professors, with him and air the dislike or disapproval I'm up for that! We could easily find a variety of excuses for any sort of conflict or punishment to occur.
