Character: Rachel Berry Age (yours, not the character’s): 17 Time Zone: BRT Preferred Ships (if any): Faberry, Pezberry, St. Berry and Puckleberry, but open to others House (Hogwarts-equivalent, make an intelligent argument for your character’s sorting): Colson. The way I see it, Rachel’s most prominent trait is her ambition – exactly what would put her in Slytherin, or, in this case, Colson. Even though she’s generally a “good girl”, she also doesn’t hesitate to break some rules to get where/what she wants (for instance, when she sent Sunshine to a crack house). Her love for fame is also quite characteristic of the house. 2-3 Para Writing Sample (in character or best representation of your RP skill): To Rachel, being sad was something much more deep than just sulking around corners until the day was over and being generally closed off to people. No, when she was sad over such silly, small things, she’d make sure she went over the top. And, that night, being over the top meant hugging a bottle of fire whiskey at the Astronomy Tower while singing a bit more loudly than it was wise to, given the conditions. So maybe it was exaggerated to be upset over the fact that Quinn didn’t interact with her at all in the past few days, and her Runes teacher gave her a grade that wasn’t as good as expected, and her friends were too busy with their own lives to pay much attention to her. Nonetheless, the brunette was never one to hold back, and she thought that the night called for some mindless drinking and an act as if she just got her heart broken. “Some days aren’t yours at all… they come and go as if they’re someone else’s days, they come and leave you behind someone else’s face, and it’s harsher than yours… and colder than yours…” Even though she was slightly intoxicated, Rachel managed to maintain a perfect pitch as she sung and semi-waltzed around, the bottle kept firmly in her hand as she danced alone. However, a little bump on the ground made the girl trip and fall on her butt on the ground, which seemed immensely funny to her at the moment. Laughing a bit more that the situation called for, Rachel went on, this time sitting on the floor and waving the bottle to a non-existent crowd. “They come in all quiet, sweep up, and then they leave… oh Merlin.” She started giggling again for no reason at all, this time shaking her head slightly and taking another sip of fire whiskey, making a face as her throat burned with the alcohol.

Salem Witches' Institute

The Salem Witches' Institute is a magical institute, possibly a school [1] , presumably located in Salem , Massachusetts. Based on its name, it presumably only accepts female members. Some of the institute's members attended the 1994 Quidditch World Cup, and were gossiping happily in between two tents bearing their school's name.

Bassnectar's live performances are legendary, with his bass-heavy beats reverberating through massive sound systems, captivating audiences and inducing a collective sense of euphoria. The artist's concerts are known for their elaborate production, stunning visuals, and high-energy atmosphere. Ashton goes beyond simply playing music, using his performances as a platform for artistic expression and connection.

Behind the scenes [ ]

• Some fans believe this to be the American wizarding school that J. K. Rowling claimed in an interview would be mentioned in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. However, assuming she meant "American" to mean the Americas in general rather than merely the United States, another American school is mentioned in the same book. Additionally, the only known members of this institution are described as middle-aged (though they could be teachers or alumni).
• Assuming it is not a school, the institution may be a magical counterpart to the Women's Institutes, though these primarily exist in Great Britain and Canada in the real world, though muggles would not actually know if there was a magical women's institute in the United States because it would have all kinds of muggle repellents on it.
• The banner which displays the school's name is described in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire as a "spangled banner", possibly the American Flag, which is "spangled" with stars and referred to in the American National Anthem as "the star-spangled banner".
• If it is indeed a school, the name "Witches' Institute" would suggest it is a girls only school, probably indicating that there is indeed a boys school too.
• It is also possible that the name is merely derived from the Salem Witches themselves, and may in fact have nothing to do with the students that attend it.
• The name of the school, based in Salem, Massachusetts, is most likely influenced by the infamous Salem Witch Trials.

Reviews for "The Role of Bassnectar's Magical Realm in Building a Community of Fans"

1. Jenna - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with Bassnectar's "Magical Realm". The whole album felt disjointed and lacked cohesion. The tracks seemed to jump from one genre to another without any clear direction. It felt like Bassnectar was trying to appeal to too many different audiences instead of staying true to his signature sound. Overall, I found the album to be a confusing mess and not enjoyable to listen to.

2. Steve - 1 star - I am a longtime fan of Bassnectar, but "Magical Realm" was a huge letdown. The production quality was subpar, with the beats and melodies sounding amateurish at times. It felt like Bassnectar was rushed to release this album without taking the time to really polish and refine the tracks. Additionally, the album lacked any memorable hooks or standout moments, making it forgettable and uninspiring. It's a shame because I had high expectations for "Magical Realm", but it simply didn't deliver.

3. Ashley - 2 stars - "Magical Realm" by Bassnectar didn't live up to the hype for me. The tracks felt repetitive and formulaic, making it difficult to differentiate between them. The album lacked any real surprises or innovative elements that I usually associate with Bassnectar's music. It felt like he played it safe and didn't take any risks with this album, resulting in a forgettable and unoriginal listening experience. Overall, I was left feeling underwhelmed and unsatisfied with "Magical Realm".

4. Mark - 2.5 stars - While there were a few tracks on "Magical Realm" that I enjoyed, the majority of the album fell flat for me. The production quality was solid, but the overall sound lacked depth and complexity. The tracks felt too formulaic and predictable, lacking any unique or standout elements. It felt like Bassnectar was playing it safe with this album instead of pushing boundaries and experimenting with new sounds. While it wasn't a terrible album, it certainly didn't leave a lasting impression on me.
