I just wanted someone else's opinion on who I should include in my Rtb.
It's basically people in the afterlife reading the books, I'm most definitely including-
Lily Potter James Potter Ariana Dumbledore Kendra Dumbledore Percival Dumbledore Estrella 'Ella' Lovegood (Luna's mother) (She was never named, so I gave her a first name.) Merope Gaunt
I was just wondering what people thought about including the founders, or any other suggestions. My only rule is they have to have died before Harry's first year. Thanks for helping.

Regulus Black, Regulus' parents, Marlene McKinnon, Lily's parents, James' Parents, Fabian and Gideon Prewitt are the ones off the top of my head

The founders would be a nice idea. What about the Peverell's?

Edgar Bones, Marline McKinnon & family, probably Arthur's parents, maybe Vernon's parents because JK Rowling never mentioned Vernon's parents at all and if they were anything like Marge, they'd love to come and see their grandson (probably not torment Harry though).

Never even thought about Vernon's parents! That would be brilliant! They'd get shat on for how they raised their kids.

Ooooh, Good ideas! My only problem is I don't want to many people. I'm currently considering Mrs.Crouch, but I'm not sure. The story starts with Estrella's death, where she appears in heaven in a conference room. I have most of the prologue down, just not completely done because i haven't decided on who will read / EDIT: And whoever said Regulus' parents- probably not them . I think that they wouldn't be in heaven, much less allowed in a room reading about Harry, anyways, they'd just cause trouble.

You're probably right about Regulus' parents but it would have been fun

Tough job there. I think it depends on where you want it to go.

I'm looking to address the more parental aspects. It's for the 'Lily learns' challenge.

Thanks, but I've already named the charries without one. I've decided on by top 11 plus the peverells. Luna's mother is already named Estrella (Meaning star in latin, like Luna means moon). Cadmus' wife is Concordia, because the Greek Cadmus wife was Harmonia, and Harmony in Latin is Concordia. Thanks for the offer though . I'm almost done with the prologue, and I'm quite proud of it if I do say so myself .

Oh well. At least I helped. Luna's mothers names sounds like Astalla which is the name of peaches geldofs child..

I've finished my prologue . Now I just need to find a beta, I'm to paranoid of my own writing to just post it.

Just post it and then we'll all help you with advice. That's the good thing about this forum. Its not as intense as FF.Net

If you say so... I just went through is with spell check and looked over it for obvious grammar mistakes, so I guess I'll risk it.

Its what we all do. Most of can't spell to save our lives or we forget to add parts of the story but still do it. I forgot some of mine in my latest chapter and once it was pointed out to me I went back and modified it. Everyone's happy otherwise they'd have said...
