Faculty
Jillian Hulett Headmistress PB Lindsay Duncan Calculating and brilliant. She is frequently forgiving of her students and a bit lax about the school. She imagines if the machine works there is no use greasing the cogs. |
Irene Hulett Head Chef PB Helen Mirren Sister of the headmistress. She spent several years bumming around Paris and learning French cuisine. She could have opened her own restaurant along St. George's Way, but she opted to cook at the school (a decision which irritates her sister to no end). |
||||||||
Robin "Weeds" Fortin Groundskeeper PB Richard Dean Anderson It's not exactly his dream job, but he can smoke a lot of weed, drink a lot of booze, and still manage to do his work without getting into much trouble. He's been known to fix a lawnmower with a paper clip and a rubber band. |
Matilda Quinn PhD Doctor PB Fionnula Flanagan Tongue in cheek doctor. She knows her business and she knows what kids really get up to. As many wisecracks as she makes to the children she keeps patient confidentiality at the top of the list. |
||||||||
Michaela Rochette Librarian PB Kali Rocha Born a squib. She's too entrenched in wizarding society to give up her life among them completely, but she can't stand the snotty, little children playing so freely with magic. She doesn't allow any casting in the library. |
Nathaniel Dawkins PsyD Counselor/Psychologist PB Ben Kingsley Dr. Dawkins is a highly educated muggle born wizard who chose to pursue two paths. He studied psychology at an American university after graduating from a European magical academy. After attaining his PsyD he decided he wanted to work with students and took up a post at Dresden. He serves as psychologist and counselor, helping students with both the mundane details of school and their complex emotional interactions. | ||||||||

Alistair Burke Security Officer PB Aidan Turner Player: Nina on purist Transplant from England. Graduate of Hogwarts. Studied to become an auror and was offered a post at Dresden. |
||||||||
Christine Allen Muggle Academics/Studies PB Carrie Preston Muggle born witch who teaches openly about her experiences with culture shock from wizarding to muggles (and the other way around) and the best ways to adjust in either direction. |
Markus Behrend Latin Coaches Quidditch PB Moritz Bleibtreu He teaches curse words to the first years on the first day of class just to get them interested and engaged in the learning process. |
||||||||
Gerard Best Potions PB Jarvis Cocker Best is a little weird and not entirely "at home." He likes to test his experimental potions on himself. |
Val Crinshlow Herbology Coaches muggle sports PB Jason Momoa Known fondly by the students at Professor Pothead; Val loves his weed and he's very good about sharing it. He figures the kids are going to learn about it eventually, might as well let them get the full experience under supervision. |
||||||||
Orenthal Langley Transfiguration House parent for Hulett PB Jimmy Jean-Louis Extremely nice and very patient professor, though his size makes him an intimidating presence. |
Maria Morgendorfer Care of Magical Creatures Coaches cheerleading PB Karen Allen MILF wife of Seamus Morgendorfer. |
||||||||
Seamus Morgendorfer Life Science Oversees Dueling, Cooking, and Yearbook Club PB Bill Murray Married to Maria Morgendorfer, which seems to earn him instant respect from his students. Seamus has a great sense of humor, though he's very practical. |
Pilar Olivier Charms/Wandwork Coaches cheerleading PB Dichen Lachman Former professional cheerleader for a quodpot team (she won't say which one). She has a real gift for charms and discovered she had a talent for teaching it. |
||||||||
Frank Smith Flying/Environmental Studies Coaches Quidditch, tends St Georges Farm PB Mat Hoffman Likes to hang out with Crinshlow and Hernandez behind the herbology labs. He's a bit of a risk taker/adrenalin junkie. |
Lucy Tell History of Magic PB Sarah Lancashire She's a bit of a disciplinarian in her classroom, but out of the classroom she's a saucy broad (never in front of the students, mind you). |
||||||||
Gerlinde Von Brandt Defense Against the Dark Arts House parent for University PB Dianne Wiest Despite that she looks like a sweet, old woman, Gerlinde is an accomplished witch who worked for the League of American Wizards as an auror. She retired after a dangerous mission that lost one of her younger fellows and took up a post teaching. |
Douglas West Astronomy House parent for Clemons, oversees detentions PB Preston Lacy He's something of a badass despite his small stature. His motto is "once a Clemons, always a Clemons." | ||||||||
Jaime Hernandez Language I, II, III PB Lincoln Ueda Likes to hang out with Crinshlow and Smith behind the herbology labs. Knows more languages than you can shake a stick at. |
Marianne LaForte Music Runs Choir and Orchestra PB Ingrid Michaelson A bit of a free spirit. She accidentally flirts with her male students. |
||||||||
Clive Montgomery Spell Theory Oversees the Honor Society PB John Malkovich Doesn't have a sense of humor. He takes his classroom very seriously. |
Pete Rosenthal Art/Magical Crafting House parent for Hudson, supervises photography club PB Bill Bailey Whacky, fun, artistic type. He rules his house with an open hand and is given to fits of feng shui (rearranging all the furniture he can get his hands on and charming the walls to change their paint color every other day). |
||||||||
Pike Setzer Literature I and II Oversees the school paper PB Hunter S Thompson Many of his classes denigrate into impromptu stories from his youth. The students love the one about the three weeks he spent in the desert high on mescaline and looking for a ride home. |
Divya Singh Cultural Magic House parent for Putnam PB Padma Lakshmi Street smart, world traveler who loves to share her experiences. |
||||||||
Amalia Vass Combative Magic PB Toni Collette Used to work for the Eastern European Ministry of Magic. Has owned three wands, the first two destroyed (one in a duel and the other at her work). She has a false leg, a fact she doesn't hide but many students are unaware. The loss of her leg caused her forced retirement from the ministry and she moved into teaching. |
Brennan Weeks Ritual Magic Runs the Drama Club PB Amanda Palmer Typically reclusive visionary. Brennan gave up her career as a performance artist to teach, seemingly on a whim. She's very intense. |
||||||||
Octavia Whalon Divination I and II PB Cree Summer Something of a polar opposite to Mother Criss. She approaches her gift with warmth and kindess, though she occasionally blurts out the things she sees (and apologizes profusely if they were meant to be secret or were just embarrassing). |
|||||||||
Claudia Anderson Advanced Transfig I and II/Animagus Studies House parent for Champlain PB Mira Furlan An animagus herself, she tends to gear her transfiguration classes toward the end goal of turning oneself into an animal. |
Mother Criss Advanced Divination PB Maila Nurmi A terrifying woman with clear perception and a sharp tongue. She'll cut down any student to cross her. Rumor has it she was a great beauty in her hey day. |
||||||||
Lars Holden Advanced Herbology I and II Coaches Quodpot PB John Noble Frowns on Crinshlow's habits, especially when his students turn up to class bleary eyed with the munchies. |
Betsy Livingston Advanced Care of Magical Creatures I and II Oversees the Dance Troupe PB Susan Coyne Probably the nicest teacher on campus. She's very lenient with her dance students and wants them to enjoy what they do rather than suffer through it. |
||||||||
Templeton Morse Advanced Potions I and II Oversees Potions club PB Patrick Stewart Oftentimes he's the favorite professor of the student body. He's also the resident bad ass teacher, breaking up fights with a single, quiet word and hauling kids off to detention one handed. |
James Walsh Wandless Magic/Apparation Coaches Quodpot PB Terry Kennedy Another resident bad ass. Students don't mess with P. Walsh. |
