Overview
Grey Spell is a Harry Potter rp taking place years after Voldemort's final defeat.
The premise is that a collection of Hogwarts students form a secret group to experiment with, discuss, and explore the creative uses of a usage of magic that the first member calls Grey Magic.
It's not Dark magic, but it's certainly not good either.
Grey magic is the term created for when normally harmless magic is used in creative and unconventional ways, and is more often than not potentially harmful.
For example, the tickling charm is normally a harmless spell, used as a prank sometimes.
But, if you wanted to you could harm someone a lot by tickling, say, their organs?
Obviously this sort of magic would not be approved of in Hogwarts, and there's always the risk of the group being found out.
The group will not start out with a specific goal in mind, and members will join for a variety of reasons whether it be pure curiosity, or more more devious reasons.
This rp will be mainly character-driven, and the events that happen will mostly be determined by the characters.
Rules

Rules
In Character Rules-
- As this is a more advanced rp,
one and two liners will not be allowed.
I understand that sometimes there is not a lot going on, so when situations arise
where there's not much going on except for a conversation and
nothing else,
a shorter paragraph will be accepted.
However, if there's
action or anything to describe
your post should be
two paragraphs or more.
So, if there's things going on your posts should describe that, but if there isn't don't feel like you have to make yourself write a super long post. Please be
coherent in English
with both grammar and spelling.
- No god-modding, power playing, bunnying, or anything similar.
Remember, there's a difference between being
creative and obnoxious
. When a character dies or is injured is up to the person who role plays them, please just use
common sense
in this regards. We will not break the character making process down to a science, but please keep it realistic. This role play has fantasy elements, sure, but that is more for the environment than your character. If you have an idea that may help spur the plot along,
please PM it to Ghost before implementing it
.
- RpN's rules apply.
Embellish in gore and profanity at your own discretion
, but know how much is too much. Romance is allowed, but be sure to
fade-to-black
before something becomes too intimate.
- For consistency, stick to
third person limited past tense
. That's just a preference of mine turned pet peeve, but if anyone
really
wants to do things differently, then don't be afraid to ask.
- Do
not
color-code your posts
, or
use any color
. It's incredibly annoying and more often than not hurts the reader's eyes.
Out of Character Rules-
- Treat each other with respect. If you have a problem,
take it off the thread
to resolve maturely.
- Keep all posts in their relevant sections.
There is a section for you to speak out of character
, so please use that rather than speaking in the role play or character sign-up tab. If you've read these rules, link to a picture of Nick Cage at the bottom of your character sheet. Anything posted in the wrong tab will either be edited or deleted and you will receive a warning.
- If you intend to join the role play,
be active
. While school is starting for many people, we understand you being busy and not being able to reply too regularly, but we will have an active chat for you to keep us updated on your whereabouts so we know you haven't lost interest. If you plan on being absent for a while for whatever reason,
please drop a message either on the out of character section or message Ghost
to let someone know how long you'll be absent.
- Follow RpN's rules.
If you're not familiar with their rules, please read up on them
so that we don't get in trouble.
If you break any of these rules you will be warned. Ignorance of the rules is not an excuse. If you get multiple warnings, you will be kicked out of the role play.
