Second Years
Full HOL Name: Alexander Backwood
HOL ID: al1116
Year Joined: 2009
Year: I kinda lost track. Second year I think
Positions Held: RPG moderator, if that counts
Nicknames: People call me Alex, but I don't really have any nicknames as far as I know
Personal Quote: "80% of people in high places think I am an arrogant snot. I'm famous!"
Short Bio: I'm a 19 year old student of Cognitive Artificial Intelligence. A huge Harry Potter fan of course, as well as Twilight, Artemis Fowl and, as of late, Doctor Who. Besides reading, I love playing the piano and playing/making computer games. I also enjoy RPG and writing very much. On HOL, I'm almost exclusively active in the Roost Roleplaying section. To be honest, I couldn't even tell you who the new headmaster is since Ulol left (or is Ulol the new one? I forget). Even though I'm moderator of Roost RPG, I try not to act like it if I can. Some will argue that I was acting like a moderator even before I became one though, so the difference may not be that big.

Personal Quote: "I was born this way."
Short Bio: With his charming GAGA personality and passion for female pop stars, Annovien Fang took HOL by storm when he was sorted into Ravenclaw. He is the lovable wizard with a passion for pop and lets everybody know it. But he never fails to brighten a person’s day when casually hanging about random channels and the roost. This fierce and fabulous second year enjoys biting, well, everybody and constantly yapping about his latest obsession.

Personal Quote: "Remember that it doesn't matter where somebody comes from but where that person is going."
Short Bio: I joined HOL in the summer of 2009, after I saw it on someone's facebook status and wanted to find out what it was. I had no idea how much I was going to love it! Soon after I joined, I started discovering all of the fun activies, beginning with Adopt-an-eaglet, PPC, and RPG. I didn't make it on to IRC until my BBO team dragged me in there, but soon I became addicted to that, and at some point I started learning quidditch, which is now one of my favorite parts of HOL. I've loved getting to know all of the fabulous people around here and I'm looking forward to more excitement in years to come!

Nicknames: Nora, Brat, Norie
Personal Quote: "Rules are meant to be broken."
Short Bio: I discovered HOL on a beautiful summer of 2009. I was immediately attracted to the idea and signed up as soon as applications were opened. I signed for as many classes as I could. I applied for the Roost and started participating in many activities, such as Trivial Pursuit, Adopt-an-Eaglet, Secret Santa, and many more. Sometime in winter, I became a staff writer for Alte and I tried botting. RQT co-captains persuaded me to try out for the RQT and to my delight I was accepted in the team short time after. I was soon hooked up into quidditch and this is my favourite part of HOL. Into my second year being on HOL, I began assisting classes and now, I am a proud student teacher of Dark Arts. I am looking forward to my future years on HOL and meeting new and fabulous people.

Personal Quote: "Shut up and let me see your jazz hands!"
Short Bio: I was lost in January 2009 when I wandered past HOL in my 5000th Google search for a decent virtual Hogwarts. I was very thankful that it was time for a newbie influx and joined right up. After six months of procrastinating and forgetting, I actually joined up and I got my, well, butt into gear, signing up as a columnist for the Alte, joining and actually passing classes as well as finally downloading IRC and joining the Ravenclaw Quidditch Team in which I also managed to stay on my broom during practice, somehow. In the year 2010/2011, I was lucky enough to start teaching a class as student teacher.

Nicknames: I HATE nicknames xD
Personal Quote: "The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt." Not mine but Russell's, of course, but I feel close to it xD
Short Bio: I joined HOL during summer 2009. I was studying for the Medicine SAT, so I didn't have a lot of free time... but HOL charmed me, just as Harry Potter did ten years ago. I was sorted into Ravenclaw - that was what I wanted! - and then I started this wonderful experience. I'm not so active as I'd like to be, but I try to do my best. Moreover, I don't speak English very well, so chatting and doing homework is not so simple. Anyway, I'm always in search of new friends! I passed my first year earning a total of 1013 point for my house - and I won an unexpected Excelling Eagles Award for it! I'm a member of the Pen Pal Club and the Hol Book Club. I try to give a hand to the newbies with the First Friend Project and the Adopt-an-Eaglet. If you want to know something else about me... you'll just have to ask!

Personal Quote: "The reality of magic is in the mind of all of those who accept it"
Short Bio: How can I bore you today? In HOL, I try to be as productive as I can, but RL gets in the way a lot. On top of being a student, I am a "football" referee and I play in a wind ensemble. I have much pride in Ravenclaw and I am sure we can take the House Cup back from Hufflepuff this year. I swamped myself in too many classes this year and will be sure to only take two three classes per term next year.

Nicknames: Mara, Marapants, one-half of 'The Marens'
Personal Quote: "My memory has a mind of it's own."
Short Bio: I joined HOL in February of 2010 after a long Harry Potter movie marathon, a few hours trying to convince myself that my Hogwarts letter had gotten misplaced, and a successful Google search. I jumped into classes and joined RQT and became a regular "face" on IRC in record timing. I met Karen Circa (the Harry to my Ron) the first week of classes and we quickly became inseparable, working together in every partner/group activity since we met. As a 1st Year eagle, I won seven awards, earned five quills, received a Silver Quill and was a member of the SQL championship team, the Quiberon Quafflepunchers. This year I'm continuing with a full schedule of classes while also assistant teaching two other courses, remaining dedicated to RQT, and being a Staff Writer for Ex Memoria Scientia.

Short Bio: A friend of mine mentioned the place and lured me here with promises of interesting classes. So far, I've studied everything from Geophysics to Hungarian -- and I'm not sure which one of those was harder! I majored in English in college, and I still love to learn things, so I think I'll stick around for a while.

Short Bio: Rin joined HOL in 2010. She became a part of the HOL Pen Pal Club and has really enjoyed taking to others on IRC. Her favorite part of HOL, however, is the classes. She especially enjoyed taking Fairy Tales, and working on original pieces for it. Other than that, she loves the friends she has made, some which she has found very encouraging for the times that she has had to spend more time on real life homework than HOL work. She loves being a part of the Ravenclaw community, even though she also values her interhouse friendships. Also, she feels strongly about the plight of the elves and reindeer and the goodness of coffee.

Classes Taught: Care of Magical Creatures, Duelling 101
Short Bio: I joined HOL in the summer of 2009 hoping to add a little magic in my life. Well that was fully accomplished. I was soon out earning points and taking part of any activities I could join. I found my way to IRC and now I'm hooked. I saw the reserve prefect application one day and didn't wait one second. I signed-up and was soon apart of the PiT program. I enjoyed the entire process with my fellow eagles and the then Head Prefect Alexia Riaper. I was made a reserve prefect (No longer an aRMPiT [A Reserve Male Prefect in Training]) on July 6th 2010 along with two other wonderful eagles, Arielle Lemoyne and Catriona Watson. I now have the pleasure of working with all of Ravenclaw's Prefects, Reserves, and Professors. In the early months of 2011 I was then promoted to a full fledged Prefect. As of the 2010 year, I became a student teacher and plan on continuing my studies at HOL long after I graduate.
