Amelia Simons | Annus Secundus (15) | Student | Astrid Bergés-Frisbey | Open.

“There’s such a lot of world to see. We’re after the same rainbow’s end, waiting ‘round the bend, my huckleberry friend, Moon River and me…”

Facts: 

• nationality: english
• blood type: half-blood
• major: dancing + music (secondary)
• brother: zachariah simons

The Story: 

Nobody touches Amelia as long as her brother is around. Shame, you’d think. Such beauty shouldn’t be underappreciated, but don’t worry – the lucky ones get through Zack’s protector arms and enjoy her innocent smile. She’s naive and childlike, probably the only pure thing at WADA. Tell her something dirty and she will probably just blush. In fact, tell her about the amount of boys fancying her and she will still blush only. Wonder why her brother is trying to keep her away from the hands of the arrogant and rich?

Growing up in the Simons family is one of the biggest adventures in the world. You get to enjoy both the muggle and the wizarding world. Her father is crazy and teaches his kids to seize the day and do whatever they want. They may lack money, but that doesn’t stop them to be a loving and strong family, always looking out for each other. When Zack was accepted to WADA, Amelia knew she has to get in as well. For others, it was only just a dream, yet she moved everything and succeeded. Not only she desired to be with her brother, her dancing skills are compelling. She looks like a porcelain doll on the stage, a perfect, untouched porcelain doll who bewitches the audience.

No matter what reputation you have, she will talk to you unbiasedly and even if you feel like the worst person in the world, there’s a chance for her to change your mind with her sweetness. Although she may be a doll, underneath the porcelain she has the heart of a lion, making her a person who would do anything for her beloved ones. No wonder she has the bravery to stand up against her “sometimes” annoying brother and tell him to show his protectiveness up his ass. She even dares to befriend the greatest enemy of Zack, the guy in love with his brother’s girlfriend: Bogdan Krum.

Jekaterina Fyodorov| Annus Quartus (17) | Student | Emilia Clarke | Open.

“And tomorrow’s just a mystery, but that’s okay, I’m alone on my own and I’m starting off. I’ll be strong, I’ll be wrong, but life goes on. I’m just a girl trying to find a place in this world…”

Facts: 

• nationality: russian
• blood type: muggleborn
• major: singing + dancing (secondary)

The Story: 

Singing has always meant life for Jekaterina – and not only in a poetic way, but in a strict meaning. When her parents died and she was sent to an orphanage, the matrons usually took her on the streets to collect money with her voice. She sounded like honey to the ears, something addictive and bewitching. As a child, she was quiet and rarely spoke. All you could see was how she did everything they asked her to do, but it was only on rare occasions she played with the other children. Although she didn’t talk much, it was her voice that helped the girls to fall asleep instead of bedtime stories and whenever a new child came, she was the first to try to dispel his/her sadness with songs.

Just when she got over her parent’s loss and learned to accommodate the circumstances, a nice but strange couple suddenly adopted her. They wore strange cloths, and stood out from the crowd. As soon Jekaterina moved in with them and began to call them her guardians, she learned that not only they are buggy, but also different from anyone else. They were both archeologists and crazy about collecting antiquities, they also happened to be wizards and the reason they adopted her was because she showed signs of magic.

Who would have thought that a nice but nuts couple could wash away all her pain and teach her to enjoy life and smile – because there is so much to smile about. When she became eleven, they immediately sent her to the preparatory school for WADA and it was no question that she would be accepted into the school itself as well.
Growing up, she learned how to fight for what she wants. Now, she’s determined to become a successful singer and repay everything her adoptive parents gave her. She is no longer the shy little girl she used to be, she’s loud and fierce, funny but also serious when the situation necessitates. And as people would expect a Russian girl to do, no one can drink more than her without being on the floor.

Igor Karkaroff | Magister (22) | Trainee Teacher | Joseph Morgan | Open.

“Eyes black, big big paws and it’s poison and it’s blood. Big fire, big burn into the ashes of no return…”

Facts: 

• nationality: bulgarian
• blood type: pureblood
• ships: cassie & igor 
• teaching: business related classes 
• brother: boris karkaroff

The Story: 

In most stories, the hero gets the girl, defeats the enemy and makes the wrong go right. It’s called a happy ending. Even in the worst, we hope for our ‘happily ever after’. The sad truth is, not everyone gets to live a fairytale. Igor Karkaroff could have grown into the man her deceased mother wanted him to be and become a foregoer to his little brother. He could have been the hero in this story instead of the villain, but the decisions he made and the paths he’s been lead onto didn’t give him the chance.

Kids may be cute, but they can also be cruel and abusive. Bogdan Krum had no idea of the effect he had on Igor. He was just a spoiled boy, getting out his frustration by terrorizing his best friend’s big brother. He had a treehouse (where Igor had no permission to step into), an awesome family, could ride a broom and got everything he wanted. On the other hand, Igor only had his mother. She was pure, sharing all the love in her heart with her children – and the only one able to control her husband. When she was murdered, the family fell apart. Mr. Karkaroff started beating his oldest son, Boris ran into the arms of the Krum family and Igor had to bear being left alone.

Cassie, as a child spent a summer on the Krum estate and captured the attention of the boys – only this time, Igor was the one to win. She played and shared her sweets with him, slowly growing to be his childhood love. While he was being nice, Dan as a true young boy had pulled pranks on her and stole her toys, until the day he had changed and started being nice out of the blue. Bogdan Krum defeated Igor again, humiliating him and Cassie disappeared mysteriously. 
Years later, his father ordered him to go to France and meet his future fiancée. He had no idea he would see her again. Every summer and the holidays he spent the time in Paris, so they could get to know each other better. Being his friend, she kept him of becoming the villain his father wanted him to become. But when life plays tricks on you, you can’t run. Dan and Cassie had met again, and they immediately fell in love. At this point, he snapped and lost control. All the humiliation and pain he had suffered before created a cruel monster. A monster, who raped Cassie when she went back to him crying with a broken heart. What happens when this monster arrives at WADA as a trainee teacher? Especially when his little brother, his biggest enemy and his Cassandra are his students…

Boris Karkaroff | Annus Quintus (19) | Student | Paul Wesley | Open.

“I see the blood in your eyes, I see the love in disguise, I see the pain hidden in your pride, I see you’re not satisfied…”

Facts: 

• nationality: bulgarian
• blood type: pureblood 
• major: music (composition) + acting (secondary) directing
• ships: boris & ivanna, boris & bachelority (endgame)
• brother: igor karkaroff

The Story: 

It’s not always the loudest who run the world. Sometimes power lies within observation and mystification. You’d think Boris inherited nothing from his ancestors and stands out from the Karkaroff family. In some ways, it is true: he indeed is a black sheep, but not for being less cunning than his relatives – Boris may even be the trickiest one – it’s for knowing the boundaries between good and bad.

Unlike Igor, he had a wonderful childhood, spending most of his time in the neighborhood with Bogdan Krum, playing in their famous treehouse. When his mother died, Mrs. Krum tried to fill the emptiness in the Karkaroff boy’s heart but succeeded only with Boris. Having dinners at the Krum mansion, getting an own room and calling his best friend his brother meant he belonged somewhere, he was a member of a real family. But the closer he got to Dan, the further he was from Igor. Weeks have passed without them seeing each other and although it bothered the young wizard, there wasn’t much he could have done about it.

In the blink of an eye, they both grew up. Igor was the puppet of his father while Boris achieved to become an independent person, with own thoughts and a path chosen by him. At first, he keeps in the shade and lets Bogdan shine but sooner or later, people notice him. Girls fall for his mysterious personality and gentleman ways, boys envy his talent in conviction: it takes him only one look, he stares right in your eyes and in the end, you’re going to be the one feeling guilty. If Boris doesn’t know about it, it doesn’t exist. If you have a problem, go to Boris – he’ll solve it in the blink of an eye. Only a few know about his powers, since his snobbery, pride and prejudice is not exactly turning him into an open person to others. He has high expectations and is not flattered by pretty faces. However, those who get under his skin, such as Cassie – or the way he refers to her: Smurfette, - and Dan, may find a true friend in him, loyal, trustworthy, fun and outgoing. Not only he is famous by his charming face, constant calmness and lady-killer behavior, but of the great parties he throws. Yet, underneath his soft voice and always relaxed tone lies a monster, waiting to get out. At least he has the chance to put all his pain and anger in music, while trying to use Cassie as tool to bring his brother, Igor back from the darkness, help his best friend win the girl of his life back and read all the books at WADA library.

Zachariah Simons | Annus Quintus (18) | Student | Chace Crawford | Open.

“You rip it from my hands and you swear it’s all gone and you rip out all I have just to say that you’ve won. Well, now you’ve won, but I gave you all…”

Facts: 

• nationality: english
• blood type: half-blood
• major: music (composition) + acting (secondary)
• ships: cassie & zack  
• sister: amelia simons

The Story: 

When you’re a scholarship student among the rich kids, people have expectations. They want to see their investment benefit, they expect something extraordinary from you. Although it was hard to match the high expectations at the beginning, Zack fought hard for many years until he became one of the most appreciated students. He started out by playing musical instruments and attending Magister Mikey’s acting classes. It was a long way till he earned the respect he owns today. They barely noticed him until the end of his second year, when he revealed his composer skills to the world. He has the special talent of impersonating his pieces. He’s full of feelings, fire and dilemma, which reflects in his music. No wonder he’s asked to write the soundtrack for all the plays. 

He may not had been appreciated before as a musician, that still didn’t stop him to get popular. Possibly for his adorable smile, open personality or loose attitude, a fact is a fact: everyone adores him. The girls stand in queues to go out on a date with him. Why wouldn’t they? He’s charming, honest, caring – maybe a bit too impulsive and stubborn, but these are neglectable when he seems so perfect.

The most important rule if you wish to be his friend: don’t touch his sister. Amelia and Zack grew up together and developed a very strong sibling relationship.  His protectiveness over her is not something anyone questions. Zack just wants to keep his sister safe and it may get annoying after a while for Amelia, no one else dares to judge his word in it. Will he take this defensiveness with him in his new relationship as well? Cassandra Ledger is not someone you can lock in a cage and he knows that – this, next to many other things is the reason he had fallen in love with her. After being her closest friend for many years, he finally came to terms with himself and admitted his feelings. Now, they’re at the beginning of a rocky road with a surprise guest on his way…

1975 is a life-changing year in the Wizarding World. Many have joined the Death Eaters to follow the Dark Lord, who’s power grows stronger and stronger every day. The wind of change has reached England, and the people fear the future with a good reason. Although it affects the rest of the world as well, the students of WADA couldn’t care less about the problems of England.

Once upon a time, many years ago, on the magical lands of France, a school named Wizarding Academy of Dramatic Arts opened it’s gates for the talented children. Back then, it was only an acting school but it has grown to be the home of the gifted ones. It’s really hard to get in and it’s even harder to stay. There are high expectations at all the courses. Talent isn’t enough, you need to be hard-working and ambitious, you need to have something in plus, an extra that makes you outshine the others.  Apart from the majors, the students get to pick plus classes so they could satisfy their thirst of knowledge in subjects they are interested in.

You couldn’t be more mistaken if you think that they don’t enjoy their time spent in the institution. WADA has it’s own traditions of balls and shows, the students are convergent and always find a way to go on a bender and break the rules. But where do ambitious students, love triangles, hot teachers and social differences lead in a community of teenagers? Guess it means a lot of off stage drama…

"

And I hope that she runs to Damon, and he says no.

Seriously, I hope that he says it’s too late, and that he can’t take her rejection any more and that she has to spend the entire season proving that she in fact does love him, and that she wants to be with him and only him. Because right now, I really don’t think she deserves someone who is so unbelievably selfless that he would continue to hide a piece of information that might make the girl he loves more than life itself change her mind about him, even when he is dying and knows he will never speak to her again.
