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?

If we see a man glorifying his race, gender, or creed, we can understand there is nothing about himself that deserves glorification.

Meaning that so many students who don't have professor accounts are left out? What is the point, it just sort of becomes a teacher based role-play because they are the only ones that could handle something like that. Another reason to hold this off and slow it down.


Not necessarily. If it is handled correctly, then a "mini game" of some sorts could be created. Similarly to another site I was on, the event member (which was the admin in this case) would chase after the victims he was about to kill. The victim(s) were allowed to run after they saw the presence of what was about to kill them, and then, the event would chase after them. To make something like this, I suppose we can use a similar ideal of the dueling club system, or the old Quidditch system. It will be the beasts vs. students, and I doubt that the admins would play unfairly against the members in a life-death/injuring situation.

In addition to that, when the dark creature attacks occur, we (myself and the rest in my year) will be fourth years. So, in return, I would believe that some of us, at least, would know offensive powers.

However, if the mini game is a rather difficult display to perform, that's fine. Something else can be developed before 4th year begins, I would hope.

Ella, hence the bringing in of smaller activities such as quidditch. The installation of a plot line as far as I can see is unanimous it is just the method of instillation and how we go about bringing in the plot is debated.


Events that would involve the entire student body, such in a plot, is what she was speaking of.

We can't just have these two groups.


Of course. We can have students, if they wish, erect their own little clubs with different beliefs. If I read correctly, Jake attacked Julian, yes? There we go, we have a leader of a spinoff of the Pureblood Fanatics.

People can create and then can make something that the members can place in their signature so we can tell them all apart.


As for what else to add, I'm not entirely sure. I want to hear more ideas from the mass.

Lol, chances.

Even I can tell that it's possible to make things that involve the student body under these activities, that doesn't necessarily mean plot line.

Jake attacked Julian,


When and where did this happen???? My guess is Slytherin common room seeing as I can't see it. Still Rofl.

However, after the Quidditch system was changed, only 3 people could participate in the matches at that time. The little events are able to involve numerous people, but it would have to be rather large.
