Posse Name: The Masters of Magic

Posse Member 1 Blaise Zabini
Posse Member's House Slytherin
Why he/she is on my posse The quintessential ~cool~ kid. While everyone else is running around frantic, I imagine him just sort of sitting back and watching the show take place, but then fighting fiercely when the time calls for it. Sort of sardonic and self-confident without needing to be the center of attention, which works well with a couple of my other members.

Posse Member 2 Draco Malfoy
Posse Member's House Slytherin
Why he/she is on my posse The leader of the pack who tells everyone else what to do (not implying that everyone else always listens!). I think he'd be good in a fight with some practice, and I'm sure Lucius has already provided him with a ton of knowledge/training. Plus he has that intimate knowledge of the dark arts, which'll be useful & balance out a few of the other member's pure-book-knowledge.

Posse Member 3 Terry Boot
Posse Member's House Ravenclaw
Why he/she is on my posse The bookworm-sort who will be the provider of knowledge / useful spells & such. I'd say Hermione, but I think she'd get on everyone's nerves, so! I think he'll be the practical one of the group who tries (in vain?) to keep everyone else down-to-earth as well.

Posse Member 4 Zacharias Smith
Posse Member's House Hufflepuff
Why he/she is on my posse The challenger to balance out Draco's bossiness. I think he's the type where we're not really sure why he's there, but we've sort of just gotten used to him, and maybe in the end he'll prove to be loyal and trustworthy. Maybe.

Posse Member 5 Luna Lovegood
Posse Member's House Ravenclaw
Why he/she is on my posse The dreamer who wanders into the middle of the battle looking dazed and somehow ends up defeating everyone there. I think they're temporarily baffled by her craziness, and that brief moment of weakness is all that was needed~ I think the other members of the posse would eventually grow rather fond of her.

I love what you wrote about Luna! She seems, at least to me, like her oddness and the things she would say to her opponets would just make them stop and say "Huh?" and then she'd go all lethal on them.

I can totally see Blaise being super laid back. Also since his mom was not faithful perhaps he would be! Zacharias is a very interesting choice. You never quite know what you're going to get out of him.

I love your posse! It's great! You've got all natural born leaders here, except for maybe Luna but she's amazing in her own way. I think Terry and Luna would be great researchers to have to give Blaise, Draco, and Zacharias the information they would need to do great things.

Hm, your choice of Zacharias Smith is intriguing. You could sure count on him to point out the flaws of any plan you might make, which may decrease your chances of failing at anything. And TOTAL YES to Blaise. I can't get over how pretty he is he would so be the rock of any group.
