[font=Simonetta][justify]The year is 1989, eight years after the end of The First Wizarding War and two years before Harry even learns he's a wizard. Though a scarcely acknowledged fear of you-know-who still lingers in the air, the wizard world is operating mostly as normal. Perhaps you are a new first year student, entering Hogwarts with the likes of Fred and George Weasley, Cedric Diggory, and Angelina Johnson. Or, maybe you are soon graduating alongside Bill Weasley, studying vigorously (or not) for your N.E.W.T.s. Either way, you've found your way to Hogwarts and are welcome. Now please, make your way to platform nine and three quarters.[/justify][/font][/color][/div][color=black]

[font=Simonetta][justify]This is a Harry Potter universe role play, without the Harry Potter. The events of Harry's life, as depicted in the books, have not all occurred yet. This RP will be focused mostly on life at Hogwarts as the students come of age and attend their classes while trying to keep out of trouble. There will be certain plot points (such as feasts, trips to Hogsmeade, and Quidditch matches) to push character development and interaction. OCs, especially first years (please refer to next tab), would be wonderful, but canon characters are most welcome too. Drama between characters (romance, rivalries, etc.) is highly encouraged.[/justify][/font][/div][/Column][/color][/row][/bg]

[center][size=7][font=Meddon][color=#999172]Guidelines & Rules[/color][/font][/size][/center]

[font=Simonetta][size=5][b]1.[/b] All first years will be sorted upon arrival at Hogwarts, as per the Sorting Ceremony. (This means that canon characters will be sorted into their respective houses, but OCs are at the mercy of the Sorting Hat.)
[b]2.[/b] If you've joined our RP after we've done sorting for the year, you can join as an older year (2-7) or part of the staff. All canon teachers are in place, but I will allow OC assistant professors in each subject who can teach the lower years (1-3) under the supervision of the canon teacher.
[b]3.[/b] You are allowed 3 characters in total. They may be whatever year you like, or even a teacher, as long as they follow the above rules.
[b]4.[/b] This will be a detailed and (I'm hoping) long-term RP. While quality is more important than quantity, in the interest of substance I am expecting at least a full paragraph (6 sentences or more) per post, at least once or twice a week. Please let us know if you'll be inactive for a while, in advance! 
[b]5.[/b] Let's all be polite to each other and work together to have a good time.
[b]6.[/b] I'm sure you know the usual rules by now, but just in case: no GMing, Mary Sues, or controlling/harming other people's characters without consent. etc..
[b]7.[/b] Less of a rule and more of a suggestion, but the group discord can be found here: [URL="https://discord.gg/k3k67hT"]Discord - Free voice and text chat for gamers[/URL]. You are not required to join at all, but it's a handy tool for communication.[/size]
[/font][/div][/bg]{/slide}{slide=center|[bg=#30593f][FONT=Simonetta][size=6][color=#1c1c1c]And learn until our brains all rot.[/color][/size][/font][/bg]}[bg=#2a623d][div=width:65%;padding:35px;margin:auto;line-height:20pt;border: 6px solid #b5b5b5][center][img]http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2v0ld1i5m1qg1krko6_250.gif[/img][/center]
[font=Simonetta][size=5]Hm. I don't believe I've seen you here before. I don't know you. First year, then?

[b][He looks you up and down before giving you a knowing smile to ease your apparent nervousness.][/b]

It's alright, I get it. My little brothers are first years too. George and Fred Weasley. Little troublemakers, they are. Maybe you'll meet them on the train. But on second thought, it's probably better that you don't.

[b][He laughs.][/b]

Here, let me help you with your bags. Don't worry, they'll be sent up to your room when we get there. Now, when you get off, you'll be looking for Hagrid. He's a [i]big[/i] guy, you won't be able to miss him. He'll take you on the boats to the Great Hall, where you'll get sorted.

What? Yeah, sorted. You know, into one of the four houses. You don't know? Blimey, well. There are four houses. Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, Gryffindor - that's the one I'm in - and Slytherin. You'll probably want to stay away from that last lot. Huh? Oh, no, you don't get to pick. The Hat will, at the ceremony.

[b][The train's whistle blows sharply, a final warning to all intending to get to Hogwarts.][/b]

There's probably still room in one of the compartments of this car right right here. In you go. Chin up, you'll be fine. Just remember to stay as far away from Peeves as you can. What's that? Nevermind, you'll figure it out for yourself. Good luck, and [b]welcome to Hogwarts[/b] [USER=12487]@avira[/USER][/size][b][/b].

What did you say your name was?

Ah, yes. We have been expecting you [USER=12487]@avira[/USER].

[There's a twinkle in Professor Dumbledore's eyes, as if he truly recognizes your name.]

I remember you especially - your name, that is. I was there in the tower when it happened. I was enjoying a cup of chamomile tea when the Quill of Acceptance wrote your name down in the Book of Admittance. Sometimes I enjoy small escapes to the tower, it's a very quiet place to think. There has been no child ever born with magical ability that wasn't recorded in that book. That is how we know you are destined for a place here, at Hogwarts.

[His brow furrows, as one does when they remember something important, dreadful, or both.]

You've spent enough time listening to the ramblings of an old man. Off to class with you.[/size][/font][/bg]{/slide}{slide=center|[bg=#38485c][size=7][font=Simonetta][color=white]The Quill of Acceptance[/color][/font][/size][/bg]}[bg=#5c3848][font=Simonetta][size=4][center]Character Profile
