Quidditch Registration

[Leovwin]

Welcome to your respective Quidditch teams Wren, Lev and Octavian. To Octavian, sorry but your elder came before you. I'm sure you'll make captain when Zach leaves Hogwarts.
OOC Congratulations to Gryffindor for making a full team.

[Ammon Levy Malfoy]

Name: Ammon Levy Malfoy
Username: Ammon Levy Malfoy
House: Slytherin
Year: Sixth
Position applying for: Beater
Reason why your character should be chosen: Because he wants to prove that he was worth something and that he can be a team player if it means a win shared. He may be hot-headed and can be whiny but he has power beneath his appearance and he wants to show that he can do it.
RP sample: Ammon knew that the team would be demanding not just the mental part of him but also the physical as training to keep up with the rest wasn't as easy as it seemed once before. But he knew that he needed to do this for himself. He was a Malfoy and Malfoys don't hide behind their names alone. They show their opponents what brought them to where they were and showed them that they deserved to be there. It wasn't as hard to accept the fact that his Captain was his roommate but if it meant that they'd have the win over the other Houses, Ammon was going to cooperate... even if it meant having to play nice with van Helrov as well. Listening to the speech, Ammon smirk, "That Cup was theirs!" he mentally cheered.

[Oliver Dominic Travers]

Name:
Oliver Travers
Username:
katarinar3
House:
Hufflepuff
Year:
Second
Position applying for:
Seeker
Reason why your character should be chosen:
Oliver has been flying since he was about five years old, and spent his first year perfecting these skills. He has quick reflexes and a good eye, and notices details that most people tend to miss. Oliver is also fairly small, and thus can fly fast and make quicker turns and recover easily from dives.
RP sample:
Oliver Travers swallowed nervously as he walked onto the pitch for tryouts. He mentally scolded himself. He shouldn't be nervous. He'd practiced, practiced, practiced at home with a snitch of his brother's all summer. The night before he'd been completely confident, not worried at all. And now, as he gripped the handle of his broomstick, standing off to the side, he felt out of place and awkward. Some students were already in the air, flying with one another and putting in some last minute practice. Oliver swallowed. They were good. Could he be that good?
He tried to straighten up, ignoring the anxious feeling that was knotted in his stomach, and walked over to the captain. "I would like to try out for the Seeker position, please," he said, hoping his voice was confident enough.
When the time came for it, he mounted his broom and rose up a little ways, closing his eyes for a few seconds until he got the okay. Immediately, his nervousness melted away. This was just another practice, just like in his backyard. He ignored the buttery-yellow robes beneath him and instead searched for that little glimmer of gold. And then, he saw it. Banking hard to the left, he leaned over his broom, diving toward the ground, gaining speed, and pulled up just in time to see the snitch go up above his head. He went upwards, stretched out his hands, and felt his fingers envelop the smooth metal with its tiny, feathery wings. The next thing he knew, he slipped back, tumbling on the ground as he landed, and stood up, his hand still gripping his broomstick, his other fingers clenched around the snitch. He looked around with a smile. Yes. Just like practice.

Congratulations to Ammon and Oliver for making it into the teams. May your skills help your teams win the house cup

Name:
Inna Rusakov
Username:
inna
House:
Ravenclaw
Year:
4th
Position applying for:
Chaser
Reason why your character should be chosen:
Because she loves flying. From the first time she held a broomstick, Inna has wanted nothing more than to fly in the sky. She still attends flying classes each school year, simply because she enjoys it so much. After waiting a few years, she believes that now is the proper time for her to join the team.
RP sample: Inna held the broomstick her grandfather had sent in her right hand. It was the one she was going to use when she stepped out onto the field, ready to take flight in front of the large crowd. She was nervous, as evident by the slight shaking of the fingers that curled around the wood, grasping onto it tightly. But this was her first time going on the field. It was to be expected. She was going to have many eyes on her, but most importantly her family. They'd watch her from the stands - Lev was likely to be the most critical, seeing as he was already on the Gryffindor team.

When it came time to entire the field, she took in a deep breath. "You can do this," the girl whispered to herself, mounting her broom and flying out behind the others on her team. The crowd cheered loudly and she smiled. The anxiety began to dissipate. She was up in the air, the quaffle was about to be thrown, and for the first time, she told herself that she was ready for this.

I would like to welcome Inna Rusakov to the Ravenclaw Quidditch team! * Cheers* You go Glen Coco

Name: Elliot Moreau
Username: elliot
House: Gryffindor
Year: 6th
Position applying for: Seeker
Reason why your character should be chosen: Elliot doesn't come from a wealthy family, but he's appreciative of what he has and flying has always been that sort of getaway for him. When he's in the sky, he feels like nothing can touch him, as if he's immortal with no limits.
RP sample: Elliot mounted his broom and took to the skies. The cheers of the students filled him with about as much excitement as flying did. This was it. The first game of the season and he was going to give 110%. The brown haired male nodded at his fellow teammates, watching for the quaffle to be tossed into the air. The moment it did, Elliot started in search for the snitch. It was always fun to search for the little bugger. It was quick as lightning, but he'd catch it before the other seeker did. He flew through the air, brown eyes searching for the golden snitch. He caught sight of it, flying past a beater on the opposite team. He shot after it, keeping close to his broom so that the wind wouldn't slow him down. He dodged an incoming bludger, making a sharp right and reaching out, just out of reach of the snitch. He swore under his breath, but didn't stop. Elliot had no intention of giving up. They're team was up by ten, and all he had to do was catch the snitch and if he didn't, that was okay too. They were all just having some competitive fun.

Congrats for making it on the team, Elliot!
