Willemina (Mina) Roebuck

age 2age 5

Mina is perhaps accidentally well-named, as she is indeed a mean sim. You wouldn't think it by looking at her, she looks cute and innocent, but get on the wrong side (or any side actually), and Mina can deliver one hell of a tongue lashing. She is outspoken and very active, hating to sit still for too long.

*Willemina was originally born a boy, William. My game crashed and I lost the play session after I'd backed up, so the baby was born again, this time a girl. I called her Willemina, which is spelled wrong, but ah well.

Jonathon Roebuck

Baby JonathonAge 2


Age 5Age 13

Jonathon is the second child of Richard and Marisa, and the family's bad-boy. Growing up in Robert's shadow wasn't easy, and then Poppy, the family dog, died when he was a child, plunging his mood. Jonathon is naturally selfish anyway, but definitely feels overlooked and ignored in the family and things got worse when he aged up badly into a teen. Now he seems to spend most of his time kicking over trashcans and picking fights, or looking for a date so he can get some attention.

Marisa Roebuck

Age 20Age 35

age 50

Marisa was a native of the Frontier who married the founder, Richard. She's a determined and ambitious sim who aims to achieve everything she sets her mind to and do it to the best of her ability. She has high hopes for those around her too, but it does mean she is easily disappointed when others let her down. She is currently the only businessperson in town - owner of the General Store of Buckstown. Although she didn't care much for children, she indulged Richard in his wish for a large family, although she is still happier letting Richard, Robert and Jon look after the little ones.

Richard Roebuck

Age 20age 35


age 50age 65

The founder of Buckstown, Richard arrived at the Frontier with his faithful canine companion, Poppy, ready to start a new settlement in the untouched paradise that he'd found. He built a small cabin and fell in love with a native, Marisa, who he married. Richard always wanted a big family, and so far he has four children. He's a confident and fair man who won't suffer fools gladly, but once you earn his trust, he's a loyal friend for life. He'd like to see Buckstown truly established as a small town before he dies and likes to see the community working together.

The Hipworth Family

Rhodri Hipworth
Broomstick Cottages (Hogsmeade)
Apothecary/Potions Shopkeeper

Rhodri is a playable-NPC in Hogsmeade. This means that he is a sim that I have created, lives in a house and owns a business, but I do not actually play him, unless it is to add skills/relationships or progress his business.

Former Ravenclaw and world-renowned Potions expert, Rhodri settled in Hogsmeade to 'retire', but ended up taking over the village's Apothecary and Potions shop. He lives only with his son, Alec, following the death of his wife.


Alec Hipworth
Broomstick Cottages (Hogsmeade)
Ministry Employee

Rhodri is a playable-NPC in Hogsmeade. This means that he is a sim that I have created, lives in a house, but I do not actually play him, unless it is to add skills/relationships. He may potentially be 'partner' material for a playable sim. =)

Alec lives with his father and works in the Ministry of Magic.

The Rush Family

Bernie Rush
Broomstick Cottages (Hogsmeade)
Fishmonger

Bernie is a playable-NPC in Hogsmeade. This means that he is a sim that I have created, lives in a house and owns a business, but I do not actually play him, unless it is to add skills/relationships or progress his business.

Bernie Rush is a mean-spirited and grumpy old man that runs Hogsmeade's fishmongers. He doesn't care much for the students of Hogwarts always invading 'his' village and can often go out of his way to be mean to them. On the other hand, he loves to fish and anyone that might share that hobby of his can be grudgingly welcomed to the ponds behind his shop.

He lives alone in the smaller of the two Broomstick Cottages, opposite the Three Broomsticks Pub.
