Character Breakdown

 

Narrator: The host of the evening. They know everything about the Puffs and A Certain School of Magic and Magic. 

Wayne Hopkins: Our hero. An American 90’s kid obsessed with video games, pop music, and peak cinema like Free Willy. A kid with a great heart who is determined to be the hero, even if a certain boy with a magic scar keeps stealing his thunder.

Megan Jones: If a Puff could be moody and goth, she found a way. Sarcastic, angry, and embarrassed of being a Puff. Looks up to her missing mother, a Puff who works for the Dark Lord.  Deep down, all she wants is to feel loved and accepted.

Oliver Rivers: A math prodigy born to muggles; he struggles with basic magic. Spastic, nerdy, and very enthusiastic about advanced mathematics, he is Wayne’s best friend and develops a crush on Megan.

Cedric: The Puffs’ golden boy. Perfect smile, perfect attitude, and the perfect leader. A Disney Channel hero somehow stuck in the Wizarding World.              

Hannah Abbott: A socially awkward and painfully shy Puff. She doesn’t have the best social cues.           

Xavia Jones: Megan’s Evil mother. Similar to Bellatrix Lestrange if she was sorted into the Puffs as a student.  

Ernie Mac: An Irish boy who fancies himself as “the best Puff”.

Leanne: An energetic and very excitable Puff. She’s lived in a cabin in the woods her whole life and has never been around other children until being sent to Magic School.  Probably the most innocent and pure of heart Puff.           

J. Finch Fletchly: The youngest puff. Very sweet and fun loving. Ernie’s best friend.             

Susie Bones: A sad and creepy Puff girl. She has a lot of scary stories about her wizarding family and their bad luck. 

Sally Perks:  A near-sighted Puff who refuses to wear her glasses. She has a crush on Wayne and would do anything for him to notice.

            

Miscellaneous additional roles that will doubled with characters above:

               Mr. Voldy: The Wizarding Dark Lord. He’s a real Snake.

              Blondo Malfoy: Harry’s archrival. Very full of himself.

               Rita Scooter: A wizard Reporter.

               Bippy: A House Elf who randomly appears in the trio’s lives.  Loves to sing very annoying songs.

     Harry: A certain “Boy who Lived”. A well-meaning, but cocky boy who rules the school like he owns it.                 Doesn’t seem to notice the Puffs at all.

               Myrtle: The Ghost of a student who haunts the bathroom.

               Uncle Dave: Wayne’s crazy uncle from Cattlepoke Springs, New Mexico.

               Fat Friar:  The ghost of a Friar who haunts the school.

               Clumsy Longbottom: A shy and unconfident student.

               Viktor: A competitive Russian student.

               Zach Smith: The cool captain of the Quidditch team. Great improvisor.

               Mr. Bagman: The Tournament Announcer.

               Ginny: Ron Wesley’s sister. Kind of annoying. Wayne has a crush on her.

               Frenchy: A French witch who goes to school for magic French people in France.

               Helga: The very first Puff. A friendly witch who loves to cook.

               Scorpio: Malfoy’s son 19 years in the future.

               First Headmaster: The Headmaster of a Certain School of Magic and Magic. Very old and wheezy.

              Second Headmaster: Totally the same Headmaster of a Certain School of Magic and Magic. Nothing                             different about him at all, no sir. We definitely didn’t change actors midway through the show. Angrier and                 more active than First Headmaster

               Male Professors:  A Certain Potions Teacher, Professor Turban, Ghost History Teacher, Professor Locky,                         Mr. Nick, Real Mr. Moody

              Female Professors:  Professor McG, Professor Sproutty, Runes Teacher, Professor Lanny, Ms. Babble
