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?

The Grounds; Day 4, Hogsmead

Alastor entered the Grounds and looked at the drunk Professor and groaned slightly. What on Earth happened? he asked the girl who'd tapped him with her foot. Oh, he said as he saw the whiskey in his hand. Nevermind. He looked at the girl solemnly. Why didn't you help him? Why not put down your Prophet, and help him up? Why not call someone else? He groaned and picked the Professor up, placing him on the ground so as he would not crush a body part on the jagged rock. He pulled out his wand and pointed it at the air. Accio chair. He said blankly, picturing his mother's lawn chair. It zoomed through the air and landed on the grounds with a thud. He smirked and picked up the intoxicated and incapacitated Matthew Concordus and placed him on the lawn chair. He looked at the girl. Take the whiskey. He tossed it to her and pulled out a mirror from his bag. He said a name quietly. Lucy. He looked at the mirror with the image of his mother burned in his mind. The mirror fogged up. His mother's face appeared in the mirror, a profile show, and he saw her washing dishes. Mum. he said quietly. The woman beamed at him. She obviously noticed that he had taken something. Mum, first of all, I want to say I'm sor--

She cut him off, nearly screaming, shaking the mirror. Alastor Steven Maxwell II! Where is my lawn chair!? Why did you take it!? Bring it back right now! She took her wand out and began to say the charm Acci--

Alastor stopped her. Mum. Stop. One of my Professors is drunk, so I took your chair to hoist him up. He was lying on a rock, mum. The rock is jagged, he could've been hurt. He groaned, hoping that this would be a sufficient explanation. He looked at her solemnly. Mum, I learn't my lesson the first time I took it. It's bad, I know. I'm grounded, I know. But it's a Professor, mum. I couldn't just leave him there. And this girl was no help. He said, pointing to the Ravenclaw girl.

Lucy stared at him through the distorted glass. Hmph. She scoffed. Fine. You've let off the hook this time, Alastor. But mark me, her voice boomed as she said the last words, Next time you act like a bumbling buffoon, I'm taking you straight home! Alastor gulped.

Okay, mum. I'm sorry. I apologise. I'll talk to you tonight. He tried to smile, and then pointed his wand at the mirror. Bye, mum. Finite. he said, and the picture of his mother disappeared. He grinned and looked at the girl. Sorry I snapped. I'm Alastor. Nice to meet you. He extended his hand to meet her's.

Savannah suppressed her laughter into a small snort and recieved his hand.
"Savannah.." She smiled, then crossing her harms to cover her bare stomach.
"Just get back from Hogsmead?" She asked, moving towards her things.

Alastor smiled. Hmm. No. I didn't come from Hogsmeade. I actually just woke up. He fixed his cloak with the name Maxwell written on the back, and the sweater with the M on it. Did you go to Hogsmeade? he asked curiously. He smiled at the girl when she covered up, assuming that she was shy. He walked over to her coloured towel and picked it up. He strolled back to her. Here you go. If you're that shy. He extended the towel and grinned. He smiled and waited for her to take it, his eyes drifting on the whiskey that Concordus had possessed when he entered the grounds. He chuckled and picked it up, walking to Concordus and placing it in his hand. He chuckled and walked to the girl, the towel still in his hand. He handed it to her and smiled. Here you go.

"Thanks." Savannah said and wrapped her towel around her waist.
"Sure is a nice day - a pitty you slept through most of it..." She started.
"But it was a loong week! Would you care to sit down?" She motioned to her blanket.

Alastor smiled and walked to the blanket, standing. I prefer to stand, thanks. He grinned. So, were you planning on going to Hogsmeade? Because I was thinking of going later, if the weather allow. He grinned and looked onto the Black Lake and walked to it slowly, kneeling and running his hand softly through the water. Water fascinated him. It was like a thin web of life, vibrant with organisms and beings. He looked at the water and stared deep into the recesses of the Lake. He saw fish swimming underwater in large schools. Hehad begome distracted and immediately realised he was with somebody. So. You didn't answer my question. Were you planning on heading to Hogsmeade? He stood and looked at her solemnly.

Savannah smiled at the invitation. Alastor seemed like a nice enough guy.

"Sure..." she said and smiled.

Happy to have her bag of everything with her, Savannah threw on a pair of shorts and a sweater, instantly ready to go to town.

Alastor smiled that the girl accepted. Great. Let me just get to the Common Room and get changed. I don't really like wearing this. I'll meet you in the Great Hall so that we can leave. See you! He smiled and picked up his bag. He looked at Savannah. Make sure that Concordus gets the chair back to me. He got out a parchment and wrote a note.

Professor Matthew Conrcordus,

Hi, it's one of your fellow Gryffindors, Alastor Maxwell. You know that chair you're sitting on? It's my mum's. So, if you are done with it when you wake, just put it in the Common Room. Thanks!


He smiled and placed the note on Concordus's nose. He looked at Savannah. Okay. I'll meet you later. Alastor smiled and walked up to the Gryffindor Common Room.

Professor Matthew Concordus
Unregistered

Matthew suddenly woke up and rolled off of whatever he was now on top of, he whipped around and pulled his wand out, thinking he had been attacked, now on the floor due to being some-what confused under the influence of the alcohol, he slowly made himself stand up on his feet.

Looking around he noticed his vision was blocked by something, he relised that upon his nose was a note, Matty pulled it off and began to read. The note, from one of his Gryffindor student's explained why he awoke from a chair instead of the rock he faintly remembered falling a-top of earlier. He grumbled and picked up the chair, slinging it over one shoulder as to make it easier to carry.

He slowly made his way back towards the castle to drop the chair off before returning to his look-out spot, he walked past his centaur friend, Bannishtar, who had just exited the entry hall and gave him a drunken wave, whisky still in hand, with him slowly taking more drops he entered or to say the truth, stumbled through the big, wooden - main doors.
