New Journals:
corazon_de_luz Miranda Serrano, a healer who was also a Spanish Civil War veteran, came to Britannia along with Amadeo Luna--she works with him helping refugees, and as a healer at St Mungo's specialising in psychology. She often works with refugees and veterans suffering from war-related problems, and she is also called in on cases by Magickal Law Enforcement. (PB: Paola Krum)
domini_canis Dominic Prewett is an expert on blood-based magick who works for the War Bureau and is occasionally consulted by Magickal Law Enforcement, where his sister and one of his cousins work as Aurors. He is completely and utterly loyal to Ned Kyteler. His father was an Unspeakable working in Eastern Europe during his childhood and he attended Durmstrang rather than Hogwarts, leaving school in 1933. Unbeknownst to most people, he is actually adopted. (PB: Michael C Hall)
en_el_fuego Raziel Mendizabal, older brother of Serafina Mendizabal, fought long and hard in the Spanish Civil War, and is now making his living as a bartender and innkeeper at the Hotel Valeria in Londinium, one of the finer establishments...on Knockturn Alley. It is frequented by all sorts of expatriates, especially hunters. (PB: Julio Chavez)
lw_cryptomancer Frank Abbott (Gryffindor 1915) is a diviner and cryptographer in the employ of the War Bureau; he is the cousin of Aristotle Moody. (PB: Eugene Robert Glazier)
Journals Renamed:
beckys_lw_npcs has been renamed voci_umbrarum, and lucifer_risen has been renamed demonabaddon (which used to be the name of a different character's journal, but that character is in aranxta now).
New Graphics:
inimperioesse, madwatchmaker, pendle_mist and rcmp_wizard have new userpics (as usual).
I am desperately seeking good screencaps of Lisa Darr from either Profit or Popular.
Under New Management:
We are still recasting Becky's characters but haven't recast them all. We have deleted a lot of journals that had no posts or very few posts and comments in them in order to make the game run more efficiently, particularly abandoned journals that no-one else has shown the slightest inclination to take over--many have been on the adoptable list for over a year.
