Read Today's Daily Prophet: Knights of Walpurgis attack Hogwarts; Belleford steps down as Hogwarts closes until further notice
Welcome to Hogwarts Interactive Role Play, one of the net's best in Harry Potter and Hogwarts role plays. We hope you enjoy your visit.

Here at Hogwarts our students are currently in their Seventh Year. Last year, the war against the Knights crescendoed into a direct attack against the school. Disappearances are still reported (or not) daily, and the Dark Lord and his Knights of Walpurgis have succeeded in spreading their message of "do as thou will" far and wide across the globe. Magical Law Enforcement, which is now the only authority in the wizarding world under Martial Law, has responded by tightening security, controlling the media, and strictly enforcing curfews and other laws. Their control is damaging to the people's freedom, and their hierarchy is a suspicious lot. It is clear that some members of the MLE like their new found power a bit too much, others see it necessary, but all are in serious danger of being consumed by it. But with the picture of just what Azariah Amaranth is after becoming ever clearer, and a third player in the form of a group called SAVIOR entering the scene, what will the MLE do next to ensure that they've got the situation under control?

The Elementium, the Higher Plane that had once been hidden just beyond the veil in the Department of Mysteries, and the Deathly Hallows. The pieces of the puzzle have been identified, but what picture do they make?

Today is Day 1 of Year Seven. Students have had time to recover from the Knight's attack, and are beginning to reluctantly return to the walls of Hogwarts. The safety of the school has been diminished, bringing up the question everyone must ask. Are you safe anywhere these days? It's up to each individual to decide their fate, where will you decide to go?

He pocketed his wand and remounted his broom, kicking off once more and hovering above the ground. He was eager to just let loose and fly high above the class but restrained himself, he didn't think the Professor could handle it today.

Usually Justine enjoyed class but today she was glad to get it over.

"Well done everyone, you all did really well. I can see we have some rising stars." She said, addressing the class. "Now if you could all just bring your brooms over here" She continued, pointing to the ground behind her, "and set them in a neat pile".

"Next class we'll be moving on slightly but as I'm satasfied that everyone can mount properly if there's any of you that wants to borrow a broom to practice you only have to ask. There's absolutely no problem with that but you must ask and you must have supervision. I can't stress that enough. Alright that's all" She finished gratefully, hearing the bell.

Standing back, she waited for all the students to leave up their brooms.

Slightly disapointed that class was over, V left her broom up. Standing back to let others past she waited for Eli and Nat.

Eli dropped the broom onto the pile, her expression bitter. "Why can't it just fly itself into the pile?" She muttered, walking over toward V. "I'm useless at magic. I couldn't even get the stinking broom into the air." She shot a glance at Nat, who had managed to do what she could not... or maybe she had been flying all her life, like she said. Eliana couldn't quite tell.

Tristan walked over and tossed his broomstick onto the growing pile, flashing a smile at the Professor. Turning to leave he waited for the others to do the same, wanting to talk with some of them about tonight before he left.

Pleased with herself for scaring Tristan, she too placed her broom delicately on the pile and joined him in waiting for some of the others.

"What a long day? Seemed like it was never going to end!" she commented to her friend.

With a Pop! Nate appeared outside the gates of Hogwarts and entered them with a sigh of relief. He was confident in his interaction with the centaurs but could not say he had not been a little nervous; dealing with them always was a trying business.

He entered the gatea and heard the final tolls of the class bell, indicating class was over for the day. He saw the flying class that had been on the lawn placing their brooms back in the pile and begin the tredge back up to the castle. He paused there for a moment and watched them.
Cheers to Savannah Edkins for the signature.

Liam placed his broom on the pile and hurried to catch up to Riley and Tristan. He felt extremely happy about the day being over, though not about having homework facing him. Still, he had survived the second day of classes with only minor misshap. He had made friends with Tristan, and everything was cool.

"So," he said, looking around and lowering his voice cautiously, "What time is it going down tonight? I'm assuming you've found somewhere the teachers won't intrude?"

He glanced around to make sure nobody could hear them and replied, "Yeah Riley did. Meet in the fifth floor corridors at 8pm tonight in the hallway with the statues of Gregory the Smarmy and Barnabas the Bewildered. You can come with us from the commonroom but we'll send out owls to the others to let them know how to get in."

He flashed a grin at his fellow housemates, tonight was going to be fun!

OOC: Perhaps I had a seizure but I'm sure I typed: "He glanced around to make sure nobody could hear them and replied..."

Yet Sam with super hearing did...funny.

OOC: that tends to happen a lot around here. People, myself included, have to read previous posts more carefully. Now whenever Justine can wrap this lesson up and head upstairs to the neglected student that she has probably forgotten. She'll recieve a nasty shock when she finds him in her office.

Feeling the cold in the dying hours of the day, he didn't want to wait around to talk with everyone about tonight, particularly because the wrong people could overhear.

I'll send them an owl explaining where and when, more secret that way.

Turning to walk back up to the castle he gave a farewell wave over his shoulder and left the Grounds.

Professor Aphelion watched the students he would soon know well for a while, trying to determine the various personality types within the group. He saw one girl place her broom onto the pile and assumed she was a lover of flying or Quidditch, as she treated the brooms with respect, almost reverance. He saw another girl chuck hers rather angrily onto the pile and figured she wasn't such a fan and things hadnt gone as well as she had hoped. He also saw a boy throw his onto the pile with what he was sure was supposed to be a cool grace and saunter off, this one he assumed was a boy who saw himself as rather popular, or attempting to be so.

Every group has the same types, he thought smiling to himself, sure as clockwork.

Nate knew what it was like to be at school with others your age, it was the same when he was at Hogwarts. Hell, it's the same at this age! Things never really changed, you just care less about it with age and experience. Still, he always found it rather amusing to watch, always so obvious, even from this distance.

Time for a meal I think, he decided to himself. He continued on past the group of students and entered the castle, heading for the Great Hall.

Watching Tristan be led away by his stomach, she turned to Liam who was next to her, "Coming to dinner? We'll write the letters afterwards."

Motioning him to follow her, she too left the Grounds and set off for dinner in the Great Hall.

"Right," Liam said quickly. He looked around for a moment, wondering if he should wait for Nat. Then shrugging his shoulders, he followed Riley across the grass and exited the grounds,

"What do you wanna do after dinner?" V asked Eli as she jpined her, "I don't think we have much homework, do we?" She continued, trying to remember.

"Anyway, I'm not in the mood for doing any, I'm feeling kinda restless." She slowly made her way to the steps with Eli then hesitated and asked, "So you really don't think it was John then?".

Justine waited untill most of the class had dispersed, then gathered up the brooms. With a swish and flick of her wand she levitated them into one of the nearest broom sheds and locked the door.

Slowly she made her way back up the stone steps and into the castle.
