Hello! I am new to this community! I love Merope Gaunt, and though this might not be a theory.. I figured, I could ask other Merope lovers for help?

I want to play a girl similiar to Merope[Since, I can't play Merope in any RP on GJ or anywhere else :(!!!!] Any tips to how Merope should be roleplayed out? Like how to flesh out her personality?

Surely there must be a 1920s era HP RPG somewhere, lol. Or an AU where she lives.

Do you have specific questions about how she might act in a given circumstance? A lot can be learned from the way she behaves in the Pensieve, and the secondhand knowledge and speculation about her from the other characters.

I can find one :(! Yes, like is she always miserable acting? What can keep her from being a Mary-Sue?

My tips would be:

She comes with plenty of pre-packaged angst. I'd be careful not to pile on more.

Don't make her too magically powerful. She pulled off a really good love potion, but doesn't seem to do much else, and eventually probably gives up magic entirely.

Not too pretty. No Kiera PBs.

HTH
