Trianin House

**Trianin** is one of the six no-maj houses at Beaversdam Wizarding University. Named after Tilar Trianin, this house is home to the most beautiful and popular amongst the Beaversdam no-maj students.

Those sorted into Trianin are known for their great beauty and optimism. Often, these students show a talent for the arts and are very social people. They are social butterflies, as one might say. These students are valued for their maturity and their appreciation of humanity.

The patron planet of the Trianin House is Venus. With the pleasure and beauty-oriented planet as their guide, Trianins are *attractive* and unifying. They have an absolutely magnetizing energy that can turn heads and draw others towards them. They're also, uh, not great with conflict.

"They have a tendency to shun everything that's ugly or displeasing as a way to preserve beauty and harmony in the world". "For example, just severing old ties even they've outgrown because they don't want to have difficult conversations". They have a unique ability to bring together polarizing worlds, people and ideas, but they tend to be very choosy with whom they associate.

Many Trianin students tended to clique together (often acquiring leaders) which leads to the house having somewhat of a "mean girls" feel.

The House colors for Trianin are Pink and White. **Pink** relates to optimism and cheerfulness, **White** implies great beauty.

The house mascot is a unicorn, and the house crest is pink and white, depicting a unicorn, star, crown and a letter T monogram.

The house tends to reject "first generation" and minority college students and the bar is VERY high for such students to be sorted into Trianin House. The house also tends to favor the wealthy with a slightly lower beauty standard where wealth can make up for lack of beauty.

### Entrance

Trianin House features two entrances located off of the Linden Hall. These are ornately carved linden wood doors depicting a unicorn. Residents gain access to Trianin House via card swipe on the door. There is a 24/7 guard desk in Linden Hall which makes Tiranin House the most difficult beaverdam house to sneak into. The Mischief Map would not have even included Trianin House had Missy Meanie (Missy Johnson) not been a resident of Trianin.

Each of the two entrances leads to the stairwells and elevator areas in the north and south wings of Trianin House.

### Common Room

Trianin common room is a large room that is located on the 2nd floor and features large windows overlooking Diamond Point and the lake. The common room has rose quartz columns and white trim. At the center of the common room is a large fireplace with ornate metal filigree around it.

### Dorms

Dorms in the Trianin House are divided into the North and South Wing, each wing includes dorm rooms on 4 floors. Students live in private rooms with a bathroom shared between 2 or 3 rooms. Dorm rooms are part of suites, with each suite including a vestibule, off of which a bathroom and the dorm rooms are accessed.

Students often use this vestibule to house their private art and relic collections. Oftentimes vestibule doors are left open, and the Trianin House has the feel of an extensive museum.

#### Stars Hall

The third and fourth floor of the north wing is home to star's hall, this section of Trianin House was home to the star musicians, actors and dancers among the student body. Stars Hall is brightly lit, and includes peach colored walls, and is lined with white lace draperies along the hallway. Each dorm room doorway has a valence of white lace above it.

#### Furnace Room

The furnace room is where the Trianin House heating equipment is located, as well as the laundry machines that students use to do their laundry. Students can leave their laundry in the washer, go to bed and their laundry will be mysteriously clean and already folded when they come back to claim it. This is because of the house elves once owned by Tilar Trianin who was a squib who inherited a large number of house elves.

#### Oompa Loompa Quarters

The Oompa Loompa Quarters are a secret area in Trianin House where the house elves live, the space is accessed via a secret door in the west wall of the furnace room, and includes the accommodations for the oompa-loompasliving in the Trianin House. These elves only come into the furnace / lauundry room when the area is free of no-majs.

The Oompa Loompa quarters have room for the 10 or so Oompa Loompas that were left by the founder Tilar Trianin to serve the students of the Trianin House by folding laundry and cleaning the common room.

#### Study Room

The study room is located in the north side of the Trianin basement, and is a completely windowless room. This area allows student study groups to focus intently on their studies without distractions.

### Founder

Tilar Trianin was a very talented dark witch who was skilled in beauty related charms. As a teenager, she attended Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and was in the Horned Serpent House. She discovered a lost spell while searching for a book on the constellations of the Narnian sky. This spell was on a torn out book page that had allegedly been left behind by a time traveler named Lucinda visiting from England.

She had found one of the most powerful beauty spells, but the spell was very unstable, and needed much work to get it to function properly. Wizarding higher education was unavailable in America the the time so she had to seek out other talented witches, and was drawn to the powerful necromancer Nitzana in Beaversdam.

She founded the Trianin House which became the house for the beautiful and visionary amongst the no-maj students at Beaversdam. She had noticed how no-mages were able to use charmed objects and sought to improve cooperation between wizards and no-mages as a way to help solve the Scourer threat that plagued American wizarding society. As a dark witch, she cared not about the Statute of Secrecy seeing rules to be bent and not broken.

She was a powerful sorceress on par with Peverell Brothers and created many charmed items which ultimately found their way into No-Maj society. She wanted no-mages to be able to benefit from magic without necessarily being aware of its existence. Hence creating the Trianin House at Beaversdam.

### House Relic

The House Relic of the Trianin house is the Tiara of Trianin. This Tiara is the Miss Minnesota crown and is associated with Tilar Trianin's greatest achievement when she won the Miss Minnesota Pageant in 1924. Tilar Trianin was a very talented witch and was adept in beauty related charms and as such she enchanted the tiara to grant beauty beyond the lot of mortals when worn by a pureblood heir of her matrilineal dynasty.

Her niece Emma Trianin had won the Miss Minnesota Title in 1938, and was the only one to ever use the full powers of the tiara.

The charms on the Tiara are very powerful, and the Tiara's charms work even on no-mages and those with no blood relation to Tilar Trianin. However only a true heir of Tilar Trianin can use the full power of the Tiara. The Tiara is also Tilar Trianin's horcrux, and it is due to the effects of the horcrux that it is so powerful.

When a student of the Trianin House is the reigning Miss Minnesota, the Tiara is displayed in a glass display case in the Trianin Common Room.
