Meet the Travers Family. They're a rather large, happy bunch, but, like all families invariably do, they have their flaws. If you want to claim any member of the family that hasn't been claimed yet, be my guest! I'm leaving a lot about them blank, just doing a basic outline.
Just please remember, all of the Travers are heterosexual. It's the 1800s and they're a very respectable family.
Elliott Thomas Travers (1834)
![]()
![]()
Spouses: Alyss Hannah Parkinson (deceased) and Mariana Lyra Prewett (alive)
Other relatives: He has ten siblings and half-siblings of his own, and more than a few uncles, nieces, nephews, and cousins.
Job: Works as an Auror at the Ministry
Elliott is somewhat stern, but in general a thoughtful, kindhearted patriach to his family. While not particularly a purist-- he has nothing against associating with muggle-borns and the like and thinks they're just as much of wizards as purebloods-- he does believe in keeping the old families pure. He tries not to show partiality, but his favourite children are Mathias, his eldest and following after him in the Auror profession, and Alyss, his little angel, named after his much-beloved first wife who died in childbirth. He tries to be fair and just in raising his family, but is by no means perfect.
Mother
Mariana Lyra Travers (nee Prewett) (1843)
Suggested Face Claims: A.J. Cook, Natalie Dormer
Parents: Adam Geoffrey Prewett (deceased) and Lyra Elisabeth Longbottom (deceased)
Spouses: Only Elliott
Other Relatives: She has an older sister, but doesn't see her much.
Mariana is a kind, caring woman, who will always make a batch of cookies for her children and their friends on a cold day. She is a step-mother to four of the Travers children, but she has always treated them like they were her very own.
Mathias is the perfect son. Intelligent, leaderly, and athletic, he's always been his family's pride, but they all love him still. He has a good deal of ambition within himself, and works as an Auror alongside his father in the Ministry. Still, though, he tries to be a good older brother, if a bit obscure as he isn't often at the Travers family manor.
Alan Reginald Travers (Age 20)
Suggested Face Claim: Nat Wolff
Job: Shopkeeper (Of any kind you'd like)
Alan is personable and a goofball, often joking around. He's definitely a people person-- helpful, generous, and extremely extroverted. He doesn't tend to take things very seriously, though, and often jokes about things. He's a bit of a prankster as well, and when he was younger he enjoyed playing all manner of pranks on his younger siblings-- and older ones as well.

Maximus "Max" Parkinson Travers (Age 17)
Suggested Face Claim: Douglas Booth
Suggested Face Claim: Sasha Pietrese
Suggested Face Claim: Douglas Booth
Mother: Mariana Prewett
Relationship Status: You choose!
Year in School: Seventh
Max is the first child of Elliott's second wife, but he really doesn't know the difference. As the Travers were raised without any sort of separation between the half-siblings, it isn't exactly much of a factor, except in the case of Bellona, the second-oldest of the Travers children. Max has the same good-naturedness as most of the Travers children, albeit he also has a good bit of pride.

Face Claim: Freddie Highmore
Mother: Mariana Prewett
Relationship Status: Single as of now
Year in School: Third
Oliver is the epitome of the Travers' training. Of most or all of his siblings, he's taken on the traits that his parents had schooled into him the most. He is a model son and student, but has the tendency not to stand up for himself and to let people walk all over him. He comes off as quiet and respectful, but is really very outgoing and fun to be around.

Abel Max Travers (Age 5)
Suggested Face Claim: Max Charles
Mother: Mariana Prewett
Abel is the youngest of all of the Travers, and so a little bit spoiled. He has a naturally sweet disposition, though, like Oliver, which will counter that fact to a degree. However, Abel is known to pout when he doesn't get what he wants. For the most part, though, he behaves almost angelically in public. His siblings don't tease him much, but they do have a good relationship with him and show special care to make sure that he's not left out at all.

Daughters:
Bellona "Bella" Tamara Travers (Age 22)
Suggested Face Claim: Danielle Campbell
Bellona "Bella" Tamara Travers (Age 22)
Suggested Face Claim: Danielle Campbell
Mother: Alyss Parkinson
Relationship Status: Open for courting/possible marriage
Job: Graduated and unemployed
Bella is a difficult Travers, almost the Black Sheep of the family. She was closer to her mother than any of her full siblings, and was completely devastated after her death. She absolutely despised Mariana Prewett at first, and even now refrains from referring to her as "Mother". For a while, she didn't have much contact with her half-siblings, but eventually she became rather close to Oliver. Still, though, she is quite broken and misses her mother extremely.

Catherine "Cate" Marie Travers
Mother: Alyss Parkinson
Relationship Status: Open for courting/possible marriage
Job: Graduated and unemployed
Cate, more than any of her siblings ever had, feels an almost constant sense of guilt, knowing that her mother died in her childbirth. She's the least happy, after Bella, of all the Travers, and while she is just as kind as they are, she's far more of a softspoken young woman. Her health, as well, is rather delicate, and she gets sick often and easily, but she manages to pull through alright-- Cate is much stronger than she seems to be.

Hannah Catherine Travers (Age 11)
Mother: Mariana Prewett
Year in School: First
Hannah described in one word would be bubbly. She's almost always in constant motion, excited about one thing or another, and has an almost hyperactive demeanor that is hyper enough to be adorable and childlike but not quite enough to be annoying. She shows an intense curiosity about practically everything and loves learning. Her Hogwarts letter was probably the most exciting thing that ever happened to her.

Alyss "Ali" Mariana Travers (Age 7)
Suggested Face Claim: Kennedi Clements
Mother: Mariana Prewett
Ali is the little princess, the youngest girl with the adorable freckles, named after the two women Elliott loved more than any others. She, like Abel, is a little bit spoiled, but she doesn't throw tantrums. Her temperament is like a younger version of Oliver's, though not quite as helpful. However, she does enjoy helping mother in the kitchen whenever possible, and one of her proudest moments was when she "cooked supper" with Mariana watching her every move.
And so, there you have them. Simply post below if you'd like to claim one of my babies. Please do, as Oliver will be rather alone.
