Hello Everyone! I am on the hunt for some juicy harry potter role plays, so here I am. Please be sure to read through at least this and the ‘rping with me’ section just below before contacting me. My plots are underneath this whole section, and they’re written out both in a short version and a detailed version so you can look at the plots you like and skip the ones you don’t. I do plan on posting more here as I think of it.
PM me or comment below if interested! - RPING WITH ME

Please write with detail and good description; I don’t care about your grammar/spelling (I have good grammar/spelling though in case that concerns you).
Please write in third person.
I work full time during the week (CST), please do not bug me about multiple replies a day, but I believe I can give you one a day/every few days. I will notify you if it will be longer.
All of these plots are romantic.
All of these plots are in the Golden Trio Era and entail you playing Neville Longbottom for my male OC. Some of these plots I will double with you, some I will not. If you do not want to double on a plot that I am willing to double with you on, that is fine with me, but I will still ask you to play Neville for me.
If you want to see more about the OC I will be using for all plots, please check the section below marked “my oc.” - MY OC
-
Name: Arthur McCross
Nickname: Art
Birthday: November 22
House: Slytherin
Blood status: Pureblood
Sexuality: Bisexual
Personality: He can be cocky and sarcastic, and has sometimes been known to have anger issues, but he can be weak under the thumb of authority unless he has someone backing him up. He has a wicked sense of humor and is fiercely loyal when finding someone that he considers "worth it," though those people are far and few in between.
DoublingExcitement *****TL; DR: Neville is the chosen one and he and Arthur go through an edited/heavily time-skipped version of the entire series.
In this role play, we would be going through the years of the two boys in Hogwarts. My OC, who is usually a pureblood, will be a muggleborn, just for the sake of the plot. They meet in first year, and young Arthur, who doesn’t understand the house rivalries, ends up befriending Neville. The two end up going through an edited version of the events from all the books, but with us just role playing parts that are deemed important (as trying to role play 7 whole years with many repetitious parts would be… well, repetitious). Below is a simple outline of how I think we should go about planning this, though I am plenty open for suggestion and changes.
First year: Friendship begins at start of year; the pair defeat Voldemort and Quirrel at the end.
Second year: Arthur is the one who receives Tom Riddle’s diary, most of the year is gone through with jumps over the lulls.
Third year: This year would be majorly or entirely skipped, as most of the drama is “Harry specific.”
Fourth year: Neville is the 4th champion of the Triwizard tournament; house rivalries begin to tear the two apart.
Fifth year: Neville and friends start the DA, Arthur agrees to join but this only creates more friction and house rivalry.
Sixth year: The two would be completely separated this year, not talking to each other. Perhaps Neville suspects Arthur of being a death eater. This year would be nearly entirely skipped.
Seventh year: Arthur does not go to school because of the muggleborn ban and Neville recruits his help for the search for horcruxes. As their friendship begins to repair itself, romantic tension also forms.
DoublingExcitement ***TL; DR: Neville, Arthur, and any others get in trouble at school and their punishment is to switch bodies and walk in each other’s shoes.
Neville and Arthur (and for the sake of brevity, I won’t keep mentioning “and other characters”) get into a fight at school, over something. The reason can really be anything, but it should be something more serious. A professor catches them and decides to bring them to Dumbledore so he can decide what to do them. In classic Dumbledore-fashion, he is cryptic and vague about their punishment, simply saying “you’ll know when it begins and you’ll know when it ends.” Perplexed, the students leave and go to their respective dorms. It isn’t until the next morning that they figure out what exactly their punishment all entails. They wake up in an unfamiliar place, realizing eventually that they are no longer in their dorm room, rather, they are in a different one. But not only that, they’re in another body too. The point of this role play is to have the other characters live in each other’s shoes and have to get around the difficulties of the others’ lives.
As an addition to this plot, a side effect of the ‘body switching experience’ may be vivid dreams that are actually the other person’s vivid memories. For example, Arthur may dream about Neville visiting his parents in the hospital. These memories will usually have a lot of significance for the person. This part though, is optional.
DoublingExcitement **TL; DR: Neville, Arthur, and other characters are dealing with the stress and trauma that is provided by Hogwarts run by Snape and the Carrows. In the interim, they find their soulmates and have to learn to work together, even if they don’t want to.Note: This is obviously a soulmate AU, though it does not have to be under this context. If you don’t like this idea but still want to do the AU, feel free to suggest something.
Neville and Arthur (and for the sake of brevity, I won’t say “and other characters” every time) are in their seventh year. Neville, trying to spark a rebellion, and Arthur, just trying to keep his head down and nose clean. This is when they discover the they are soulmates, an unfortunate timing indeed. The soulmate AU I had in mind (granted, this is easily changeable) is that every person with magic is born with a black and white tattoo of the thing their soulmate is most passionate about. Once the person’s soulmate sees the tattoo, it is ‘colored in,’ so to speak.
Once this happens, a bond is formed, that draws the two soulmates together, whether they want to be together or not (typically they do, but in our case, they wouldn’t right away). The bond can be ‘half formed’ meaning that only one person has seen their soulmate’s tattoo while the other has not. This bond grows stronger the more time soulmates spend together. It is like a magic within oneself, feeling warm and fulfilled when the two are together/touching, feeling turbulent and restless when the two have been apart for a long period of time, or one person is in trouble, or feeling guilty/betrayed if someone else was to touch their soulmark (the tattoo) or one person was to be intimate with another person. Prestigious pureblood families often ignore the soulmate bond and continue with their arranged marriages as the bond does not discriminate against blood status or sex.
