Read Today's Daily Prophet: Knights of Walpurgis attack Hogwarts; Belleford steps down as Hogwarts closes until further notice
Welcome to Hogwarts Interactive Role Play, one of the net's best in Harry Potter and Hogwarts role plays. We hope you enjoy your visit.

Here at Hogwarts our students are currently in their Seventh Year. Last year, the war against the Knights crescendoed into a direct attack against the school. Disappearances are still reported (or not) daily, and the Dark Lord and his Knights of Walpurgis have succeeded in spreading their message of "do as thou will" far and wide across the globe. Magical Law Enforcement, which is now the only authority in the wizarding world under Martial Law, has responded by tightening security, controlling the media, and strictly enforcing curfews and other laws. Their control is damaging to the people's freedom, and their hierarchy is a suspicious lot. It is clear that some members of the MLE like their new found power a bit too much, others see it necessary, but all are in serious danger of being consumed by it. But with the picture of just what Azariah Amaranth is after becoming ever clearer, and a third player in the form of a group called SAVIOR entering the scene, what will the MLE do next to ensure that they've got the situation under control?

The Elementium, the Higher Plane that had once been hidden just beyond the veil in the Department of Mysteries, and the Deathly Hallows. The pieces of the puzzle have been identified, but what picture do they make?

Today is Day 1 of Year Seven. Students have had time to recover from the Knight's attack, and are beginning to reluctantly return to the walls of Hogwarts. The safety of the school has been diminished, bringing up the question everyone must ask. Are you safe anywhere these days? It's up to each individual to decide their fate, where will you decide to go?

Aurexus Xerinox
Member Avatar


Full name: Aurexus Uther Xerinox
Nickname(s): None at the present moment (obviously Rex for a pet name if he ever has one)
Gender: Male
Birthdate: April 14th
Age: 15 years old
Year: Fifth Year
Blood: Half Blood. Mother is a witch and father is a muggle. (see family below for further details.)
Wand: 14" Yew wand with a dragon heartstring as the core material.
Preferred House: Slytherin

Appearance:
Height: 5'9"
Eyes: Emerald with a slight natural shadow that really make them stand out.
Hair: Black hair that is normally worn at a shorter length but in a messy style.

Physical Description:
Aurexus has a fairly solid build about him, due to his healthy diet and extremely fast metabolism in addition to working himself to the bone for quidditch. His skin is fairly tanned though it is all natural as he does not spend an abundance of time out in the sun. There is a scar on his right shoulder near his chest from an injury that he sustained playing around on the pitch when he was younger. When he is wearing his robes, he wears his tie a little loose as well as his shirt untucked from his pants so that you see the tails from underneath his house vest.

When he is not wearing his robes, Aurexus still prefers to wear nicer clothing, mainly wearing either a suit with no tie or on really casual days wearing a polo and a pair of blue jeans. When his is lounging in the Slytherin common room or if he is wandering the castle after hours you will find him in long lounge pants and either a t-shirt or a sleeveless athletic shirt (a bit more tight fitting than the t-shirt)

Personality:
Aurexus was once a kind a gentle young man, and amongst his friends when he feels that he can let his guard down, he still can be. However, in the public, to the faces of those who he will not let befriend him or just outwardly dislikes because of one reason or another he is a smug, sarcastic and loathsome human being. Never one to miss a moment where he can insult a muggle, he will go out of his way to mock them and their bloodline. However, he does have a very long fuse and is surprisingly not quickly angered by what other say back to him when the mud slinging contest commences.

His hatred for muggles stems from the death of his father and older sister, which can be very sensitive buttons for him, so he prefers to stay off the topic. He is not an individual that enjoys being a downer or depressive to those around him. In the face of discussing how he really feels, he will normally shut down and not discuss it. However, if you happen to get inside that wall, as previously mentioned, then you will find that kinder and sweeter side of him that he really would love to express.

In the face of danger he is calm and cool, and prefers to be on the offensive end of a confrontation than on the defensive side of things. He takes those around him seriously and at times can be a bit too serious and too the point, but never spoils the fun of those around him. All in all, he feels as though he has had to mature fast than those around him, which shows at times depending on the situation.

History:
Born to Uther and Mariemaia Xerinox, young Aurexus came into a family as the only son, and youngest child out of the three children in the family. His mother and father had meet when they were both in school at Hogwarts, which now seems like ages ago. Mariemaia was sorted into Slytherin where she could show her true colors. She was always underhanded and quick to make advances that would move her through the class ranks. She could be quick manipulative to those around her which she played to her advantage on more than one occasion to shatter relationships that her friends had taken up with lesser blood. That all changed when she got to know Uther, a bright young Ravenclaw that had a knack for charms and the arts of the mind. From that moment forward Mariemaia knew that she had found her match, for she loved everything about him and also thought that she would not find a better man for her bloodline, even if she sorted through all the pure bloods in the school. They got involved with one another twenty years before Aurexus was born and were actually amongst the quickest to have children after their marriage. When the two tied the knot, they kept the last name of the bride as is the custom for some families that still have one full blooded witch in the family. Mariemaia's two beautiful daughters were born first, Celeste just moments before her sister Beatrix. Three years later, the missing piece of the puzzle, Aurexus came along to complete the family.

The Xerinox household is actually very well off, making it easy for their children to have everything that they desire. Celeste and Beatrix were spoiled all through their years at Hogwarts, showing up with a new broom almost every year and having enough casual clothing to fill up two trunks each. Aurexus has a much simpler taste and is not nearly as taxing on the family's finances though if he ever did want something his mother would see to it that he had it next day. She always wanted a son and would do anything for him. She even saw to it that he was learning the ways of magic at an early age. One day when Celeste was teasing her younger brother, his mother taught Aurexus a jinx to put on her (something which Celeste has never figured out)

As for his earlier years at the school, Aurexus seemed to be too much of a bookworm to be worried with all of the details of the "politics" that some of the other students already seemed so tied up in. For all he cared, it was enough for him that his family had seen both sides attend the school, and that his sisters were upperclassmen, Celeste belonging to Slytherin while Beatrix was in Ravenclaw. Sure enough, he had it easy. If anyone laid a finger on him or so much as cast him an ill look, Celeste would make sure that she had them dealt with, or on rare occasion would confront the person herself. It all seemed to be so easy when he was young, but getting older has ways of changing things.

As he aged, Aurexus wished that he was a Pureblood since so many of the other Slytherin students seemed to be. He wanted nothing more than to be on the same level as those in his own house, so much so that from time to time he would go out of his way to impress his fellow snakes by either exceeding in his academic expectations, or when the chance arrived, make life harder for muggle-born witches and wizards. Celeste could not have been happier with this behavior since she always felt the same way. Aurexus had been luck enough to have a life void of tragedy, until the day came when an accident would change his life. Summer between second and third year, Uther and Beatrix had gone to visit Uther's parents. Mariemaia had always said that the muggle world was far more dangerous than the world of magic, and on this day she was proved right. A drunk driver managed to slam his car onto the sidewalk, taking out two cars as well as all the pedestrians on that sidewalk. Two of the bodies were identified as Uther and Beatrix and when the news reached the rest of the Xerinox family, sorrow engulfed them. Some say, that was the true turning point for the Xerinox bloodline, and that on that day, Mariemaia, Celeste and Aurexus, began a seething hatred for the muggle world and all those muggle born. In a mad rage over the loss of her husband and youngest daughter, Mariemaia renounced that her two remaining children were half bloods and has since, in her mind anyway, seen them as pure as she was when she was born. As for Celeste and Aurexus, they returned to Hogwarts with new perspectives on the students, and to be honest, ideals that were not only wrong, but misguided.

Now Aurexus has fallen in with those in Slytherin that make it public just how much they dislike muggle born and any that would stand with them. He devotes a fair amount of time to quidditch, and would tell you that it is a good way to get out some of his pent up rage. His academics have not faltered which can make him even more dangerous because he is becoming a more and more talented Wizard with each passing year and now, unknown to those at Hogwarts, is being tutored in the ways of even darker magics than those they learn how to ward off inside the safety of the school.

Family:
Uther. K. Morris (deceased, killed by car accident in muggle town)
Mariemaia L. Xerinox (supporter of the KoW)
Celeste M. Xerinox (supporter of KoW)
Beatrix M. Xerinox (deceased, killed by car accident in muggle town)
Aurexus U. Xerinox (active character)

Other notable family members include:
Kenethor O. Xerinox (Uncle, Azkaban prisoner for the use of the killing curse)
Edwenor O. Xerinox (Uncle, Azkaban prisoner for the use of the torture curse)
Orlan V. Xerinox (Grandfather, Azkaban prisoner for the use of the killing curse)

Pet(s): Aurexus owns an owl for the sake of sending and receiving mail as well as a python that he uses as his familiar.

Possessions: The latest model Firebolt, a special set off sheets that have been enchanted to help the person who is covered by them sleep (stress induced insomnia remedy) as well as several other small items (things that I need to run past an admin at a later date)
