Hogwarts is home to hundreds and hundreds of students. Therefore, it is impossible to assume that we (the players) are the only ones attending the school.
For example, let's say there were five active students accounts on the board, and two active professor accounts. We cannot assume that school is being run by two adult wizards and has enrolled only five students. So, if you walk into a class and your the first player there, even though it's possible that you are the first student to class, it is not in anyway possible that you're the only student that shows up. Even if no other players show, you have to pretend that there are other students.
Otherwise it becomes ridiculous. Same thing goes for professors, it is unthinkable to assume that Hogwarts would not have a Arithmancy Professor or a Caretaker. There may be nobody playing them, but they have to be there in order for it to be realistic. Don't forget that there are also students in older years that roam the halls, and are invited to Yule Balls, etc.
If you yourself want to temporarily play one of this non-player characters, feel free to do so. We have here provided a list of all the NPC's various players have made up, or interacted with. Please, the objective is not to fill this up with as many names as possible, if you need your character to interact with somebody and it can "just be anybody" try to use one of the NPC already listed here.
This is a list of current NPC's floating about Hogawrts that have been created by students and staff alike already should any of you need them in your classes:
Hufflepuff:
Katherine Nanette - 7th year
Angelina Warwick - cherub faced young lady, 6th year
Sebastian Gregoire - 7th year
Melissa Bay - 3rd year
Gryffindor:
Albus Severus Potter - 2nd year (Assumed he's in Gryffindor) Canon
James Potter - 4th year Canon
Victoire Weasley - 7th year (Assumed she's in Gryffindor) Canon
Rose Weasley - 2nd Year (Assumed she's in Gryffindor) Canon
Graham Dedric - 1st year, unsure of himself for the most part.
Marie Devenpeck - 3rd year. Very bright student who will argue she is thought to be wrong.
Nicole Wood - Patient, model student, Hufflepuff kindness with a Gryffindor heart, 6th year.
Fred Weasley - almost identical to his father George, 6th year. Canon
The Weasley Horde - there's a lot of them, don't know their names or anything, but I would assume there's a lot
Gavin Woodward - gives respect to those who deserve it (Slytherin too), very much into what Nicholas has taught about honor and respect, not easily creeped out, 6th year
Alexander Perkin - 5th year
Sarah Alomar - 1st year student. Resentful towards her older sister apparently, who graduated from Hogwarts some time ago. Very proud of her individuality
Ravenclaw:
Maria Caldwell - 2nd year
Jason Finchly - astute, very scientific in thought, 5th year
Rodolphus (Rudy) Maynard - 6th year
Samuel Hackford- 1st year. Broke his nose while attempting to broom surf.
Oscar Ricketts- Friendly 3rd year, likes to look for the advantage in things.
Mary Prawett- (6th year) Best friends with Isabelle Wesker and Sera Jotte. She's the goofiest of the three, and she's a big day-dreamer.
Sera Jotte- (6th year) The more studious member of the trio.
Slytherin
Hector Davenough - Atypical Slytherin jerk, dislikes Donall, is all talk and constantly doing so, 6th year
Anthony Corenthos - bit of a prejudiced prick towards Gryffindors, thinks Donall's a traitor for warming up a bit to Nicholas, 5th or 6th year
Malcolm Zinnoy - 1st year
Scorpius Malfoy - 2nd Year Canon
Leon McDonnel - Best friends with Claire Walsh. He is seventeen and very evil to muggle borns, even moreso than Claire. Can get very serious, always pays attention in class. (7th Year)
Doctor NPCs from St. Mungos:
Dr. Rick Tyhee (Dr. Eric Foreman)
Dr. Alice Campbell (Dr. Alison Cameron)
Dr. Bobby Hunt (Dr. Robert Chase)
Dr. Gary Castle (Dr. Gregory House)
Please note that these four doctors are blatant, blatant rip offs of the characters that appear on House, M.D.
Feel free to post your own NPC here, and they will be added, your post then deleted.
