Fifteen SLYTHERIN PUREBLOOD DISTRUSTFUL SINGLE
An educated and resourceful young man, Julian Mulciber was born & grew up in self-inflicted exile with his family in Strasbourg, France, following the naming and shaming of his grand-uncle as an active Death Eater many years prior. He has thus lived a quiet life, closely guarded and watched over by his family. As the heir, Julian is well-educated and has had every opportunity provided to him - bar the fact that he was not permitted to mix with Muggleborn or half-blood children. This severely hindered his friendship prospects growing up, meaning he spent a LOT of time alone. He was, too, brought up amongst practitioners of the Dark Arts with extremist ideologies and thus has a very skewed idea of right and wrong.
He attended Beauxbaton for the first two years of schooling, though following the death of his mother and subsequent falling apart of his immediate family, Julian has transferred to Hogwarts for his third year. As he was very close to his mother, Julian took her death hard and is still very much in isolated mourning.
He is afraid of letting anyone get close to him for fear of losing them like he did his mother, and therefore prefers to keep others at arms length. This is his defence mechanism but truly deep down Julian only wants to feel loved.
Julian is a passionate individual who appreciates honesty, and doesn't mind a bit of banter. He isn't fazed by cruelty or meanness - as he is largely desensitized to such approaches (his father has become a mean individual since his wifes passing, and his grandparents aren't exactly angels). He loves crisp, cold mornings and stimulating people. He appreciates the feeling of freedom that Hogwarts provides - where he has every opportunity to pursue new interests, and be surrounded by new faces.
He is not fully aware of who is who at Hogwarts in terms of blood, so is treading carefully when meeting new people. He desperately needs people in his life that may change his moral compass, or have him begin to question his extremist upbringing (alternatively others that pull him deeper into those ideas). He would like tentative friends or allies, a prospective rival or two and potentially someone he would come to care deeply about (this could be the catalyst of some inner turmoil if the person is not pureblood).

Hey there! So glad to see a purist Slytherin character, my favourite kind xD
As a pureblood and Prefect, MAEVE THORNE would probably feel it's her duty to guide Julian. She transferred from Durmstrang in her 4th year, so she knows how confusing it can be trying to figure out who is who at a new school. His family name would also carry some weight, since her own father sympathized with Voldemort and she has similar ideals. Maeve is into Dark Arts (she practices them secretly in the Room of Requirement and at home during holidays) and dueling (club leader, last year's tournament winner). If he is into those activities, she could become his mentor. Obviously, this would be pulling him deeper into purist ideologies (bwahaha!). Oh, and she values intelligence & ability above all else - Julian being intellectually inclined would mean they'd get along well. What do you think?

Hi!!
Amazing! I am so very keen to have Julian to have a very fractured moral compass. Would Maeve being a Slytherin Prefect perhaps mean that she might have been allocated to assist Julian in his transfer and subsequent welcome to the school (and just a check in every now and then)? Because if that is the case then we could definitely have them meet in that manner? It would be wonderful having someone who can understand the complexities of coming from a completely foreign place and not really having any bearings.
Julian is also into Dark Arts, and has been introduced to the subject at home, so that is definitely something they might bond over. As for duelling - it isn't something he has really thought about - but if it is mentioned to him, I am certain Julian would be interested in upping his skills for later purposes > So it would be great to have a super skilled mentor in that category.
I appreciate you responding to my post! MAEVE THORNE

JULIAN MULCIBER | MAEVE THORNE Yes, I think it's entirely possible that school staff would have asked Maeve to show Julian around. We could have a thread set either right after the Start-of-Term Feast or the next day, where she approaches him for the first time. They could eventually start talking about their hobbies/interests/education, which in time might encourage Maeve to tell Julian about her secret training sessions and invite him to join her. I can start a thread for them, if all that sounds fine?
JULIAN MULCIBER | DOMHNALL MCEVOY I just realized that these two will be dormmates, since they're both third-years. Don is a Muggleborn (got sorted into Slytherin while the Sorting Hat was missing, haha) and a prankster, plus not especially bright in academics due to laziness and distractibility. I doubt they will get along very well, though I imagine Don will try to befriend Julian from time to time - in annoying ways, too. We could show their interactions in class threads once you start posting there? The two would attend mostly the same ones, except for a few electives.

Oooh being a Muggleborn is going to be tough, but could also be a bit of fun. Julian is never going to be outright blood purist at school (for now, anyway) - he's a bit more socially aware than that, and cautious about making any unnecessary waves. So having someone try to befriend him repeatedly that he really wants to keep away from is actually hilarious lmao. Classes would be a fanstastic way that they could be paired up to work together (so no escaping haha)!
