Ronyo Storm - Slytherin Sixth Year Quidditch Pitch/ Slytherin Tryouts Another year and another turn out onto the pitch with broom bucket and case in hand. Placing both nicely next to one another Ronyo looked around the familiar sight and found himself hopeful of another great year in Quidditch. Returning players coming to re-secure and retake their old spots, and new students looking to make a name for themselves. So far Ronyo had not felt he was doing that bad of a job as captain of the team, his players got a good deal of practice and he always kept them in shape. Even if they were not always the most skilled team they were surely the most fit and could go longer and keep up the pressure with the same ferocity from hour one to hour ten. They would also be looking to get some reserve players this year as well, which meant more people could be part of the team and help out should someone go down. After last year and Ronyo's own personal fall from the game the Captain knew it would be prudent to have stand by players so they were not playing with a handicap. Ronyo smiled as he mounted his Chinese Fireball with a great deal of pride and the hope of an even greater year for it. With a look to the sky Ronyo kicked off with some effort and shot off to test out the turning ability the broom was fabled for. He ducked and dodged invisible bludgers, did break neck turns and then followed it up with some daring dives towards the ground only to pull up at the last moment and head back to the heavens. It was a broom designed for a flyer like Ronyo, not for pure speed but agility and daring maneuvers. This time it would not be so bad if the returning and new players were a bit late, he would just enjoy a bit more flying time.

Dairus walked up to the pitch he looked at the older boy and gave a nod of greeting to him "I'm here to try out for the team if I may." He said truthful not sure what to expect from the older boy and not sure how much he could trust him.

So you wanna call me the devils' advocate But you don't even know the half of it I was raised to believe in miracles My life is so cold Fifth Year, Slytherin Seeker ╔════▄▀▄▀▄▄▀▄▀▄════════════════════════╗
Belle’s long, porcelain fingers firmly grasped her broom, one of the latest racing brooms to hit the shelves this year, the Nimbus Galaxy, but, because of her connections with her boyfriend, she had been gifted a model two years before it hit the shelves. The ivory polished wood gleamed like a beam of moonlight whenever she raced in the sky. Lithe, long, nimble legs reached the pitch, but, not without nearly tripping over her feet—
Glancing left and right—she had to make sure no one had seen.
With a sigh, she brushed golden curls behind her ear and joined two new first years at the center of the pitch, the captain was high in the clouds as he always was—it was times like these she honestly began to wonder how early he came before practice starts. ”You must be first years, hm? I’m Belle, Annabelle Rich, it’s a pleasure to meet you.” She greeted, bright, bouncing and enthusiastic. Her vivacious pale green eyes sparkled with earnest and genuine care. Hidding the layered masks of diamond and fortified steel that hid every urge to cringe at her surname. Like her cousin, Dominic, the Rich family was an ancient, old line, and nearly snuffed out, struggling to reclaim itself. For centuries, her family had cheated, bribed, extorted and stolen, manipulated and murdered, the woman of the Rich family always marry men, that suddenly die at the end of each wedding. Alimony, sudden widows of vast fortunes; her family name was notorious for it amongst every purebloodist family. And, for one more particular detail—debt. The Rich family owes more money to families than there are pureblood familes to pay too. Her expression hidden, she hoped no one would realize she was the sole surviving heir to that family, the Rich family.”That’s the captain up there flying, Ronyo Storm, he’s always doing drills before practices.” She explained.

Energized, Dominic jogged down the pitch to join the rest of the prospective members of his team of green and silver. A broom rested casually over his shoulder as he joined those out on the field gazing up at the captain and his daring challenges. A light layer of sweat beaded down his forehead and gently plopping down against his uniform on his broad shoulders; a quick jog around the garden started his morning, followed by a long stretch, and then running several laps around the lake before he finally reached the field. ”Heya mates,”

~_~ Vanessa Hopewell ~_~ Sixth Year ~_~ Slytherin ~_~chaser Her broom was securely placed on her shoulder, Vanessa made her way one to the pitch. A soft smile played across her face as she spotted some first years waiting eagerly for tryout. At least there was some interest amoung the first years. Besides the first years, The blonde haired slytherin spotted Ronyo flying laps like he always before tryouts and Belle as well as Dominic arriving shortly before herself. Once she reached the group she smiled a bit wider and waved. " Hello everyone," she said. Her soft voice was audible a bit more then normal. Setting down her broom, the chaser began to stretch out her arm so she would be ready to take on the potential chasers and keep her position on the team. She had played a key role in all of last year's matches so she didnt' think her spot would be taken over that fast or easily. But there was always that chance of it occurring. --/5 posts --❤-- --- --❤-- --- --❤--((OOC: My power returns and fist thing I do. find out whats up with the guild then post in tryout XD))

Darius looked at the first and second year then to the other's of his housemates "I'm Darius" He said to the people who addressed him. He was not really use to being around so many people all at the same time but it was nice to be around them also and to have them talk to him.

Try-outs were always interesting. Mostly, due to some of the drama that tended to start because of them. Spotting a nice patch of grass just on the outskirts of the group that had assembled, Jasmine sat down and took out her servicing kit. She started to work on her broom. It had been a few weeks since she had last flown, and so she knew it was probably a good idea.◄

± : . : ± : . : ± : . : ± Eretria Whitethorne Third Year - Slytherin ± : . : ± : . : ± : . : ± Eretria stepped onto the quidditch pitch, the set of her shoulders and her walk determined. She hadn't had a chance to try out last year, and she was more than eager to try out this year. She had her Nimbus slung over one shoulder and she looked around curiously. Yep, there was Ronyo, as well as Jasmine and Vanessa. She vaguely remembered others from the common room, and spotted some first years as well. Well, here was a chance to show that she knew what she was doing. She started stretching a bit as she stood there, thinking that at least she should be a bit limber. ---------------------------------- Location: Quidditch Pitch State: Eager OOC: ... ---------------------------------- Let's see what I can make of this...

Virgil walked to the pitch he saw his half brother and he sneered. He walked to Darius and said "I did not know they let dogs on the pitch or where you hoping to be a cheerleader." He snickered as he walked past.

Ronyo Storm - Slytherin Sixth Year/ Team captain, beater Quidditch pitch Seeing a fair gathering assembled already Ronyo made a quick snap turn in the air and pulled into a falling drift as he continued to pull up slightly on the broom to cut his speed and then leveled out a few feet from the ground. He had been practicing that falling drift wanting to try and put it to use this year, he had performed tied drift turns normally but falling into a drift added a new degree of difficulty Ronyo wished to attempt to keep his skills sharp. Dismounting his broom the boy moved to take up the forms as he always did and passed them out to the new comers. "Good to see you returning players, and welcome to the ones trying out for the first time. First things first, if you haven't been told some odd things about me I'll go ahead and get them out of the way. I'm not your typical Slytherin by any stretch of the imagination, so for anyone looking for some inner group politics and secret plots you've come to the wrong place. My returning players know this well so you can ask them to reaffirm this, I don't care where you came from, what you did, or who your parents are. On my team we work together as comrades and leave the selfish and stereotypical snake stuff in the locker-room. I hold firm to the belief that this house is better than the snide self centered idea many people have about us. If you have a problem with that please leave because we have no time for personal drama on this team. Now then with that out of the way, please fill out the form and turn them in to me so I can get an idea where we stand. First years, know that the returning players have priority when it comes to spots, fortunately for you we are also looking for reserve players this year. If you get placed on the reserve team don't think that means I think your not good enough or what have you. You're on the team, and that is not something just tossed around here. Reserve players will train just as hard as the rest of us, and also provide the much needed additional training of having another group to skirmish against. I run a tough and endurance driven training time out here, we will be able to go longer and harder than any other house so when time get long we will still be at our best. We came in second last year, but more importantly we beat Gryffindor and I aim to go one higher and win the trophy and beat the lions. On that note I don't take to bad mouthing other houses, you always respect your opponent or you will never be able to beat them."

± : . : ± : . : ± : . : ± Eretria Whitethorne Third Year - Slytherin ± : . : ± : . : ± : . : ± Eretria nodded at the older teen, understanding what he was talking about. It was one of the reasons that she seemed to constantly be at odds with the more ambitious members of her house, but with her usual caustic attitude toward what she felt was idiocy, she seemed to survive so far in the house. She grabbed a form and filled it out, returning it to the captain afterward.

((For those wondering, we are currently still using the old system until the new one has all the kinks worked out of it. It should be ready by the next RP year, hopefully! >_<))
