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?

Arriving at Hogsmeade

Kidnapped!

Tristan disembarked from the train and breathed in deeply, savouring the smell of fresh air. He overheard one of the Professors calling for the first years who would embark towards Hogwarts via the boats as he himself had done. He knew his luggage would be taken up to the castle and so climbed aboard a carriage to await his friends. After waiting for nearly ten minutes he decided he could wait no longer and allowed the horseless carriage to set off towards the towering castle in the distance.

Rule #76: No Excuses. Play Like a champion!

Fera Collis
Fifth Year

Fera exited the train. She took a quick look around, checking for signals of danger, which she didn't find any of. She went off to the professors and followed to the mighty castle ahead.

Ben stepped out onto the concrete platform of Hogsmeade station from the train he had just spent many hours on talking to childhood friend Stella whom he met again in the holidays and a first year girl named Savannah.

He looked around and almost headed to the boats, before relising he was no longer a first year, so he would be using the carriages this year, with that he climbed into one and headed towards the castle.

Savannah walked towards a voice calling first years. She had her camera ready as she was directed into a small boat which floated on its own towards the castle.

Ian exited the train

Perseus's screeching from under the the cover of his cage was now echoing throughout Hogsmeade Station. He approached one of the horseless carriages and boarded it, not bothering to wait for anyone else. The carriage began to move just as if it were a normal horse-drawn carriage, as if some invisible horse were pulling it. Ian was certain, however, that it was magic that was now pulling him towards Hogwarts Castle.

Ella exited the train and followed the long line of students towards the carriages. Here she boarded one along with some Hufflepuff fifth years who, for the most part, ignored her and rode on towards the huge castle looming in the distance.

Beau nearly slipped as she hastily exited the train. To her dismay, Brianna was nowhere in sight, so she decided to follow the string of first years and hope she ended up in the right place.

Third Year

Leslie came off the train carried along by the strong-flowing stream of eager students. She had lost track of her friends from the previous year, so she clung onto her little cat, Jasper, a little tighter and headed in the direction that most of the older students were.

Since this was her first time arriving at Hogwarts by means of the Hogwarts Express, the entire experience was new to her. She followed a small group and joined them as they sat down in one of the many horseless carriages. She gave a little gasp of surprise when it started moving off - seemingly of its own accord, but soon settled in and began chatting happily with her new acquaintences. Before she knew it, she had arrived at the castle.

Second Year

Jodi stepped off of the train amongst all of the other students. She knew that since she was no longer a first year, she wouldn't be taking the boats up to the castle, but she was unsure of where to go. Glancing around for a bit of guidance, she noticed that the older students seemed to be traveling in the direction of some horse carriages further along and she joined them.

As she approached the carriages, she saw the first couple start off... without horses pulling them! She completely stopped moving out of shock, but sense soon took over and after thinking for a moment, she came to a conclusion. "Thestrals," she breathed in awe, watching as the carriages proceeded, seemingly horseless up to the castle. She wasn't completely sure that she was correct, but it seemed like a reasonable guess.

Having grown up on a farm where her family raised horses (including thestrals) and being unable to see them properly, she had grown accustomed to identifying when the creatures were present. After analyzing the situation carefully for a moment, she was almost positive that thestrals were being used and she was thrilled at the thought.

Happily climbing into the nearest carriage, she began her ride up to the castle.

Bellatrix walked off of the train and began to look around for the carriages she knew should be around somewhere. She soon spotted on e of the last to leave the station and boarded it.
Some say the world will end in . . .
