I suggest we begin with sorting for any who wish to play first-years.


It was already said in the OoC thread that we're starting on the Hogwarts Express. The sorting happens when everyone gets to Hogwarts.


Oh... I missed that. :smallredface:


Out of curiosity, do we get to choose their house before they get sorted?


((You could post this in the OoC, you know...))

Can you guys delete these posts please?

My characters

Nicholae Creed
Age: 16
House: Slytherin
Year: 6

Description: Nicholae is tall for his age, and slightly on the skinny side. He has jet black shoulder length hair and shockingly blue eyes. When not in robes. he wears a black t-shirt and jeans, along with a pair of combat boots.

Personality: Nicholae is cold and detached from alot of other students. Those he is close with are usually drafted into his small strike force of Gryffindor bullying students. He knows how to crack a joke when needed.

Best Class: Potions
Worst Class: Divination


Marcus Defaux
Age: 29
Teacher (Was Ravenclaw when he went to Hogwarts)

Description: Marcus is the muscular Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. Per tradition, he is new this year. He has military cropped brown hair and brown eyes. He always wears a black or grey suit.

Personallity: Marcus has a disposition that doesn't match his appearance. He's funny, nice, and really a good guy. But in class he's a disciplinarian.

It's just Italian for "warmth," Italian being the closest to Latin in modern day languages.

Why don't you use the word tepidus? It's a latin word for warmth.

Hey, gimli, is the spell I made up OK?

I'm not planning on making up spells for every occasion, and the ones I will make up are simple and used more for day-to-day things.

Edit: Eh, I didn't find the Latin word. :smalltongue:
That's fine. When I say the word I went ahead and googled english to latin translation and entered warmth.

Hermione used that spell to repair Harry's glasses on the train and in Diagon Alley.

"They are fine with it. As long as I like at least one class they're happy." She says with a grin. She begins dealing the cards. One has a spyglass, one has two people holding hands, and one has a white wolf. "Hm. The spyglass means you are going to become captain of something. Probably the quidditch team. The people holding hands means you are going to become friends or perhaps more with someone. And the wolf means that you are going to have an encounter with a shapeshifter." She says.

True, but in most Tarot cards, rather than just a wolf, there's a person holding this, doing that, with this around him, and this on the ground, etc... and it all means a bunch of different things.

I apologise for being a jerk.

So... Could I play a methi-mutha- Tonksy character? I'll make him related to Tonks (exactly how is where the fun begins :smalltongue:)

It has already been pointed out to be this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spotted_****) but I just want to warn you, many a British dish have little to do with the apparent meaning of it's name.

Take Black Pudding, it's made of almost 100% pig blood.

Actually, if you have wizarding parents, you can do some magic without getting in trouble. The Tracer Charm doesn't know who casts the spell, just if it's in the vicinity of the underaged wizard, as evidenced by Dobby in Chamber of Secrets.

Oh come on, that's a bit cheap. Even though they're Aurors, his parents would get in trouble for letting him do that.

Corruption in the magical government has been shown to be incrediably common, I doubt it, maybe if he ignored the warnings and continued to practice all the time, or practiced in front of Muggles, but I doubt they'd get anything to horrible, and he's only maybe a year ahead at the very most. It takes about two or three weeks to learn a spell, let's say. So he practices for three weeks, gets a warning, lays low for three weeks, that leaves about four weeks left, so he goes again, that's two spells everysummer and non that are very powerful until recently he learned Finite.

@Kris: Yea, that sounds like a good anaglogy.

But a year in advance in all subjects? I don't know...

Not all, just Charms and maybe half a year in Transfiguration. The other subjects he's on level with the normal Ravenclaw such because they're unnecessary. And he takes a personal interest in Divination, so he does well there.

Oh, well, okay. I'd say him and Rachael are about even in Charms, because she's really really good at them too, and practices frequently at school. She's quite good at Transfiguration too.

Luc's best at Transfiguration and hexes.

I'm back! For about tn minutes T_T

Being the geeky-geek that I am (:smalltongue:) I would like to point out two errors I've seen since I left:

1. Harry Potter losing his scar after the battle does not fit with the epiloque mentioning him stroking it and being sure no harm will come to his children since it doesn't hurt anymore.

B. The first warning Harry got was because of a spell Dobby cast, later revealed to be because the magical government can't tell who used magic, just that it was used in the area. Learning spells from your parents is possible by that logic. It would be illegal, but possible.

And last, am I the only European here? Nine pages since I left to get sleepsies, NINE!

I pointed that out several pages back, but no one saw or cared, apparently!

Jack is meant to be sort of a Hermione in terms of magical prowess, except better at DADA. He's not as much of a workaholic, but if he has nothing better to do, he'll practice. (He's supposed to be me, remember, and I am unussaly gifted. It's part of why he's Muggle-born :smalltongue:)

He sucks at Quidditch, though. Terribly.

Isabella is reading a very thick textbook labeled Self Transfiguration: An Advanced Guide To Changing Your Shape in the girl's 7th year Slytherin dorm. The stack of books beside her include titles like To Become An Animagus and A Practical Guide to Animagi Training. An NPC could RP with her...

I'll need the classes she is taking besides the core ones. Make it three or less please. There are three seven years now so I'm making schedules.
And her first class is potions, with the two other seven year slytherins and assorted NPCs.

You might want to give him a substitute "dumb stat" to make up for the DADA one, good character's need a balance between Merits and Flaws after all. Hermione could (unlikely) have been too perfect to be interesting had she not sucked at the most important magic used in the books :smallsmile:

On another note, unusually gifted is the norm around these parts :smalltongue:

I was trying to remember, but I can't find my books. I would like to play the new goto wand maker if he is dead. For anytime we may need him, and if he is alive, we can assume most people didn't get their wands there, because he only uses phoenix feather, unicorn hair and dragon heartstrings as his cores for wands he makes.

I have decided to give a list of Arthur's advanced level spells.

-Furnunculus(The Furnunculus Curse)
-Finite Incantatem(Only used locally)
-Avis(Up to four birds)
-Oppugno
-Relashio

The first and last are actually fourth year level spells, Harry used them in Goblet of Fire, but he knew them before the year started, so it seems to be advanced.

EDIT: Oops, sorry for the double post...
