Breakfast is now out of time. Feel free to continue all plots as planned.

IMPORTANT: Re-Vamp



Feel free to finish all plots out of time.

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?

Dinner; Day 1, last meal before quidditch

OOC: Classes are about to finish, if students can make their way to dinner and wrap stuff up before we head into the quidditch match. I'm not sure of the time differences but either M.A, Tristan, Addie or myself. Will be starting the match threads. Once again, I reiterate, Tristan is going to commentate the Gryffindor Versus Slytherin match, and I will be commentating the Ravenclaw Versus Hufflepuff game.

Again, if you are confused read through the instructions, if you are still confused PM me. (I won't bite, only nibble). If a beater posts and interrupts a goal in any stage the bludger cannot be avoided, however, if you want to post that your chaser dodged a bludger and one of the beaters hasn't posted you are allowed to do that.

EG

Chaser:

Chas (short for chaser), caught the quaffle, he did a loop the loop and narrowly avoided the bludger shaking his fist he performed a look-away pass.

Kidnapped!

Tristan walked through the large double doors of the Great Hall, his Nimbus 2000 slung over his shoulder. To his surprise his entrance resulted in large cheers and applause from the Ravenclaw table. He grinned broadly, though a little embarrassed at the attention, and took a seat at the table. Various house mates wished him good luck and patted him on the back. One particularly pretty girl saying, "Good luck, Tristan. I'll be watching you closely. And not just because you'll be playing." She wandered away to sit with her third year friends, leaving Tristan a little punch drunk.

Tristan placed his broom beside and began to fill his plate, not overly hungry due to nerves but he knew he should eat for his strength.

John entered the great hall

John spotted Tristan after entering, he decided not to go up and speak to him, he felt it was best if they just stuck to their houses in preparation for the match. Besides, people from Gryffindor were waving him over to sit with them. John shrugged his shoulder slung his broom and bat over his shoulder and sat down with the other Gryffindor students. They all wished him luck and tried to make him eat.

For the first time in a meal, John stared and poked his food more then he ate. His plate filled with food stuffs that had been put onto his plate by older students encouraging him to eat for strength. John merely pushed his plate away and gazed at the door, he longed for Addie, Eli and V's company, what he would give for Clif, August, Lavender, anyone of the house mates he was friends with just to sit so they could distract him from the quidditch and not have the older kids trying to force feed him food he did not want.

Riley entered the Great Hall to tomultuous applause and cheering of her name. This caused her to stop in surprise and check herself for exposed underwear, a sign on her back, or strange markings on her face. When she couldn't find anything she asked one of the clapping Ravenclaws what it was all about,

"Tonight's game. You guys are going to wipe the floor with Hufflepuff!"

Once she realised that she wasn't being made fun of but rather cheered on she thanked everyone before taking her usual spot acorss from Tristan. She grinned at her friend, "Well that was unexpected. But nice."

She wasn't very hungry but felt like a nice apple. She glanced arounf the table but couldn't find any. However, she spotted an orange and grabbed it, tapping it with her wand, "Mumobula," whereby it morphed into a shiny red apple.

She happily took a bite and faced her friend. "Ready to win?"

John saw Ben enter the main hall. Not who I was asking for but thanks anyway John thought, he would have preferred a member of his quidditch team to sit in solace with him. He stood up, John thought it was best not to have the conversation with Ben at the table as the older were already glaring at him.

"How are you? How have classes been?" John asked, he noticed the boy was carrying a broomstick, the boy must be on the Hufflepuff team John thought, but he saw no badge.

I wonder who the Hufflepuff captain is? John wondered.

"Absolutely! We have this in the bag!" Tristan felt very confident in their ability to beat Ravenclaw after practicing. He found he couldn't stop grinning as every few minutes a Ravenclaw would walk by and pat him or Riley on the back with words of encouragement and well wishing.

He felt like a celebrity, being the captain of the team. His shiny badge reflected the candle light and he noticed that more than a few others were glancing at him in admiration.

Riley noticed his friend soaking in adoring looks and reached across the table, gently slapping him on the cheek, "Don't get too out of it. We need you on the Pitch," she said teasingly.

She swallowed a chunk of her apple and took another, flicking her head towards John and Ben talking acordd the Hall, "I think John is quite a good player. He'll be tough when we play them. But I didn't know that first year, Ben I think, played Quidditch. Wonder if he's any good." She stared at him appraisingly for a moment before taking a sip from her goblet.

"Well thats potions for you" John said eying off the broom, he certainly did remember that day because he brought his quidditch robes that now created a bulge in his bag.

"Good luck" John said

"Cheers John", He turned round and noticed Riley staring at him for a moment, he raised an eyebrow.
"The only problem I have is that I've never played quidditch" He said while rubbing the back of his neck in embarassment

Kidnapped!

Tristan tore his eyes from the pretty third year who had spoken flirtatiously with him before and glanced at Ben, "Not sure. He's light and nimble, could be a good Seeker, maybe a Chaser. But every advantage has a disadvantage. In less than perfect weather he'll more easily go off course and be affected by wind and such."

Tristan scooped up a large mouthful of mashed potatoes, swallowing with difficulty before continuing, "Still, after tonight we'll have a good idea of our opponents. I actually have to commentate the second match between Slytherin and Gryffindor so I'll have a good appraisal of their teams for future matches."

Professor Kelly had spoken to him earlier about commentating the second match and John would do the first. He figured it might be fun and had accepted the task.

OOC: Hope that's ok Professor Kelly. :)

A delighted look spread across her face, "You get to commentate? That's cool! Congratulations!"

She finished her apple and downed her juice, "I don't think I can eat anymore, I'm too excited!"

Her stomach was full of butterflies and she was anxious to get out there. She wanted to release some of her energy but knew she couldn't yet, not until she reached the Pitch.

Tristan nodded in understand; he too felt the same. He looked around the Great Hall expectantly, hoping to catch Abaddon and Maffer before the Match. As Keeper and Seeker they had pivotal roles and he wanted to discuss a few things with them.

OOC: Abaddon and Maffer, post here ASAP.

"Well I'll be watching your game and looking out for you, I'll be commentating the Ravenclaw Hufflepuff game." John said. "I'm sure you'll do fine, you've had a practice run, it's all you need" John said, not really concentrating on Ben's problem, he had his own. John was getting his endorphins pumping, this often happened before sporting events or competition with John, though when this happened John was very fragile.

Butterflies flew around John's stomach and he felt as though they were clearly breaking the speed limit. "Excuse me" John said to Ben before walking into a corner and taking long deep breaths.

COMC Professor

Adelina entered the Great Hall, her robes sweeping about her as she strode briskly to the front of the large room, taking her usual seat at the staff table. She noticed, her heart sinking slightly, that Nate hadn't arrived yet. She scolded herself inwardly; she had no reason to believe that their flirtatious (at least that was how it had seemed to her) conversation on the first night had been anything more than the friendly banter of colleagues.

She shook her head, focusing on her plate which was just now filling with delicious food. As usual, she thanked the house elves in her mind for the delicacies laid out before her, and then tucked in.

V entered the hall with her broom in her hand, her nerves mounting.

She nodded in passing to Tristain and Riley then made her way over to John.

"Hey" She said, trying to sound calm.

Ella entered the Great Hall and walkd over to the Slytherin table. She was carring a school broom, a slightly batered cleansweep. Mentally cursing the first year ban on brooms, she tried to strighten out the twigs and pick off bad ends when she sat down. Looking up and down the table, she noticed one or two older students nodding in her direction or wishing her luck. She smiled nervously, ignoring the food in front of her-Ella's stomach was fluttering so much in anticipation that there was a good chance that her dinner woudn't stay down too long.. :ph43r:

Professor Aphelion strolled through the doors into the Great Hall and headed for the Head Table. He gave an encouraging nod to his Quidditch team players before taking a seat beside Adelina, a fellow Professor an extremely beautiful witch.

"Ah, Adelina! How lovely to see you! How was your first day of classes?"

He was quite drawn to the witch and they had shared a moment the previous year which was unfortunately cut short by unforeseen circumstances.
Cheers to Savannah Edkins for the signature.
