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?

Whole School Plotlines

Hey everyone,

We've been discussing alot lately how we need a plotline for the whole school and a couple have poppedup as not bad. I'll try and summarise and I'd like some feedback, additions, changes, more ideas etc.

Mascacra Demise, our resident crazy person, her father comes to Hogwarts to teach a new class, seemingly innocent or disguised as someone else, and is attempting to convert kids to the Dark Arts, or get at Mascacra, or some sinister purpose. And with certain students he succeeds and then accidents start to occur around the school. I quite like this one.

Something, maybe a competition, legend, informs the student body that there is a hidden room in the castle and the student who manages to find gains access to.....something good, still thinking here. The clues as to where the room is can be planted in the site itself and the room can be found once triggered and then created. I know this sounds very unthought but I'm thinking on my feet here. :)

Umm what else, some sort of charm on the school backfires and everyone in the school goes berserk, anarchy reigns.

OK so I'm clutching at straws now but this really needs top happen to keep the site unique and interesting. Quidditch is obviously still being tweaked but hopefully that soon will be a common part of the site.

So please take the time to pause for a second and really think up an idea for the site.

Cheers everyone. :)

Seventh Year. Lori rocks! But srsly, Morgan is the best! I love Malynne! But not as much as I LOVE ANNA AND LORI. BUT MORGAN STILL PWNS THEM ALL, THE END. I love Meg she is so awesome and epic. Did I mention how silly Jess is?

I personally would like to RP during actual canonical events, such as the basilisk outbreak, Sirius Black at large, the triwizard tournament, Delores Umbridge's reign of terror, the second rise of Voldemort, or even the events of the last book.

See they're ok but I think it's more fun if they're our own events. Having said that it doesn't mean we can't have similar events occur. It's from there that I got he few suggestions.

The first is similar to Umbridge, and the other two similar to Goblet or Chamber.

He's evil and obviously wanted. It'd be like when Mad-eye was impersonated.

I just got an idea for that, too. Charles (AKA: Chuck) Tortal is Mr. Demise except that he's disguised. That way, he can effect students in his own class and then others when he's substituting.

I very much like the first idea about Scacra's dad coming in to convert people to the Dark Arts.

Also, building off of your idea of 'charms breaking' and such, what if... the protective charms around Hogwarts broke, and all manner of evil/dangerous things slowly began to trickle in, whether in the form of a scary beast or evil witches/wizards. And we students and teachers are forced to... y'know, fight them off? That could be quite the adventure, I think. Only not all at once, as that would be a bit overwhelming, obviously.

I quite like that idea, Vieve. It means that whenever anyone wants to they can say they're attacked by something.

I like the idea of having the Triwizard Tournament. We could interact with students from the other schools, have a ball(have the drama of finding someone to go to the ball with!), worship our champ. I was thinking maybe people from the other schools might try to sabatoge him/her and we'd all be lookin out for him/her.

I dunno.....just a thought that I came up with there now.

I really like all these ideas though, they're definately things we could play around with.

Well, considering that fact that we can have several subplots going on at the same time... yeah. Blah. I can make a timeline that goes over what will happen when; just give me a few more ideas and then I'll start writing.


By the way, when is the second year gonna end?


--Also, I believe that this year (before it ends), we need something to happen. None of the ideas mentioned here, but something different. Maybe someone disappears or something; dunno yet. If anyone has a spare character that they rarely use, that would be great. ...Eh. I'll use Hellius.

I have made a small outline for the plot. Tell me what you need/want and I will edit it accordingly. (Stuff in parenthesis are thoughts.) ---Stuff like this still need to be decided on. I will ask permission and edit as it is said.---
----

Year One

Done and passed. Character development begins and rivalries and friendships grow.

Nothing major happens except that the troublesome students are exposed and that an arson is committed.
_____

Year Two

Sometime in the near future, (Hellius)[tell me if you want someone different. I just used him because no one volunteered] will disappear and a search (may) be conducted. (S)he will eventually be found bloody and beaten in the Forbidden Forest.

(I was thinking that this would just be a time to change and edit your plots as needed. We would start actual events next year.)
_____

Year Three

Professor Charles Tortal begins teaching his Spell crafting class. Half way through the year, the protection spell surrounding the school dissipates and dark creature attacks start happening randomly around the school.

---Julian, Abaddon, Mascacra, and possibly Hellius team up in a group. They blackmail a teacher and cause trouble around the grounds. They will eventually be apprehended.---
_____

Year Four

Mr. Tortal's class becomes a little more intense as he begins to teach complicated and rather mysterious magical incantations. The magical spell that was protecting the school reiterates but it seems to frenzy the students. They no longer obey the teachers and they do what they wish.


_____

Year Five

The anarchy continues and the Magical Law Enforcement come to try and figure out the problem. Fights and duels break out regularly and the Hospital Wing is normally filled to some extent.

---Dementors make an appearance and attack some students. ---
_____

Year Six

Anarchy ends even though intensity continues to reign as the Triwizard Tournament takes place at Hogwarts.

Dark magic seems to be taught in Mr. Tortal's class. There are spells that seemed to be used for only evil means; such as an Eyeball Imploding spell, a spell that split opens the heart of the victim, and a rather powerful knockback jinx. He encourages curses that inflict intense pain on the victim.

_____

Year Seven

--Mascacra Demise and Professor Charles Tortal disappear under mysterious circumstances. They are soon found in the Forbidden Forest and it is discovered that Charles is Mr. Lestat Demise.

Students that trust him turn to Lestat's side, while the rest of the students stand against him.---

Excellent stuff, mate. Really like them.

However it'd be awesome to see some others coming up with ideas that compliment these or just stuff for their own characters as well.

So please, even if it's just fo the current year, try and create something for your character or something for your character and someone else. (with their permission of course, don't just say your gonna hook up without asking ) :)

Wow, that looks like a great outline... I applaud you. :P

I do rather want something to happen with my character... I haven't got a whole lot of ideas, but... perhaps she's bitten by some sort of monster, like a vampire or a werewolf? That might make for some interesting scenarios.

Err, just for the hell of it, I'd appreciate if the planning for the plot itself would be hidden from the rest of the site. I'd rather have the impact unexpected than expected.

Hello my loves.....

do you honestly think it's wise to post a topic with a site plot, without informing me about it? Also "using" my character in a post-plot topic.....seems very flattering to say the least....but it does encourage my ideas to come about on how I will think that this year will turn up....My list seems to be growing with new names and images of people to meet.....I strongly advise you students to watch your back...you have no idea what you're in for.....

As the trees of autumn fade, the blood red leaves a mark on the ground, forever the evidence of true evil afoot.

*smirks*


((o.o I'm flattered, really......I'll just have to plan somethings out and tell you guys eventually. :) - Kat))

I too like the Triwizard idea, is there any chance people from another site could post on here, like openining it up to members of a specific site and having an interschool interaction. This could also mean the possibility of swapping students almost maybe some of the students will join and maybe some of us can join to another site. Like find BB RP and Durmstrang RP sites and join them with here, it'd be awesome.

Alternatively, we could expand this to a European Wizarding schools and open up a Durmstang and BB Academy grounds and have students signing up for one of the three schools.

I'm intriqued by Clifton's idea of having other sites as the other schools in the Triwizard Tournament yet it would mean that either we would have to abadon our site or they would have to abandon theirs, something neither would want to do.

Also the idea about the school wards going down is interesting. I think it needs to be started now with Professor Tortal starting soon with his new class. Mascacra this plotline depends a bit on you, do you approve someone RPing your father?
Are you my next victim? Are you my next prey?
