All right, fine, so I should be WRITING about the Founders, and instead? Would like to cast them. =P
Meaning I'd like some input and suggestions, o f-list of mine! =D
You may all blame
xenokattz and
scribophile for lighting this fire under me. ;)Now, first.
zoe_chan and I have been working on our Founders-fic(s) for well over a year now. We may not have much written that is ready for viewing, but it's there. We have Details. And Plans.
This being said, we've had pictures in our minds for all this time. Now we want to cast them. And this is where my subjective and ever-so-brilliant flist comes in. ♥!
There seems to be, in the limited Foundersfic available, a few common and popular choices for the way they look. There's a lot of red hair for Godric and Helga, and black hair for Rowena and Salazar, and sometimes blonde--particularly for Helga.
This is not what we envision.
So, please keep these details in mind when suggesting actors/actresses. Of course, any and all suggestions are more than welcome.
For the record, they are all pure-blooded witches and wizards from noble families.
Helga Hufflepuff:Normal height, light brown hair, hazel eyes, mostly average build (decidedly not waifish). Outgoing, friendly. Most at ease with children and animals. The mother-hen.
Rowena Ravenclaw:Slightly taller than average, dark brown hair, blue eyes, average build. Studious. Reserved around those she doesn't know very well.
Godric Gryffindor:Tall, light brown to blonde hair, hazel eyes. Broad at the shoulders, athletic build. Outgoing, friendly. Sometimes borders on obnoxiously courageous/chivalrous.
Salazar Slytherin:Taller than Godric (but not by much), dark brown to black hair, greenish eyes. Proud, cunning. Reserved.
Here is where
xenokattz came along and started this whole thing by suggesting Gerard Butler for Salazar. I had been envisioning Salazar slightly less broad across the shoulders, but I'm in love with this casting and now he has broad shoulders. ;)
And then another choice occured to me, so...
( Cut for pictures of possible Salazars... )Please comment and put your two cents in! We can use all the input we can get. =D
