| 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? You're currently viewing our forum as a guest.

Adrianne has entered the Grounds, coming from the Opening Dinner in the Great Hall Adrianne walked out of the warm castle and onto the chilly Castle Grounds. She was very pleased with herself to have met two new people already, on just the first day. She usually didn't meet a lot of new people the first couple of days at Hogwarts, it made her nervous. Usually Adrianne liked taking a walk around the lake on her first day, just to enjoy being back. Adrianne decided to do just that that evening, and so she headed towards the Black Lake. For a while she stood and looked around the grounds. She scanned the Forbidden Forest, the Lake, the Whomping Willow, and more famous landmarks of Hogwarts. Adrianne smiled to herself, glad to be back in such a beautiful place. Adrianne began slowly walking around the lake, thinking to herself about the new people she had just met. She was just thinking about how nice they had seemed when she heard something from behind her. Adrianne turned slowly around, but she didn't say anything or anybody. "Hello?" Adrianne called nervously and quietly. Maybe she wasn't as alone as she thought........ |

Running out of the castle , Melanie entered The grounds She felt a sign of relief as she breathed the fresh cold air . Walking towards the lake , she noticed that it was a bit chilly . She had her robe sleeves rolled up the whole time . So she slowly unrolled them and crossed her arms when a sudden chill went over her body . As she kept walking she thought about the conversation she had with her brother Brendon . She gave a giggle and said to herself in german "Ich liebe jenen Jungen" [I love that boy . ] While walking her head was down, suddenly she bumped into a figure . Automatic she took her wand out and put her head up "Who are you!?...... Lumos!" When the light came out of her wand she put it down , noticing that it was a fellow Griffindor as she looked at the girl's badge. "Oh , Im sorry. I hope I didnt scare you" she said in a nice tone. |

Adrianne jumped at the sudden collision. She turned to see a girl that looked about her age standing beside her. She didn't look like anyone Adrianne had ever seen before. Adrianne looked down at the girl's badge: Slytherin. Her tone sounded very nice for Slytherin, Adrianne thought privately. She was always a bit made fun of by Slytherins for being Muggle Born. Adrianne decided to take her chances with this girl, however. "Oh, it's okay. I'm Adrianne," Adrianne said shyly. |

Melanie had never really met Griffindor before. After all , Griffindors and Slytherins never got along very well . When the girl was done talking and introducing herself , she ,nicely again, said " I am Melanie, nice to meet you . " When meeting new people Melanie wasnt a very talkative person . "So what are you doing , here by the lake?" she asked curiously wondering if it was the same reason why Melanie was out there too . |

Adrianne smiled at Melanie, glad to see that maybe she had finally met a nice Slytherin. She could tell, however, that like herself Melanie wasn't really talkative when meeting new people. Maybe Adrianne would get a long well with this girl. "Oh, I usually go for a walk around the lake the first day of School, to clear my thoughts," Adrianne replied. "What about you?" |

Nodding , she said "Oh , so its like a first day tradition .... nice!" smiling , Adrianne's hair got Melanie's attention, it was long and silky . Looking later at the girls face , she noticed that the girl had a strange beauty and looked kinda native. Later she coming back to earth , she said "All the comotion in the Great Hall was getting me crazy . Plus in my table there was a few girls , planning something evil. "Evil talk" I call it . Unfortunatley one of them was my sister." She rolled her eyes then looked out at the lake . |

Adrianne laughed at Melanie's name for her walk. "Yeah, I guess you could call it that!" Adrianne said laughing. She noticed Melanie scanning her appearance, which made Adrianne a bit nervous. She must have noticed her Native American looks, Adrianne decided. No big deal. "Oh, yes, that would irritate me as well. I met some new people in Ravenclaw who seemed okay, but I decided I would rather be out here where there's not a lot of people," Adrianne said, talking more now that she was getting to know the girl. "So, who's your sister?" |

Melanie laughed too. Later she litsened to Adrianne, "I have a brother in Ravenclaw. Brendon is his name , you should get to meet him . My sister ... ugh .. " She gave a little shiver as she was going to start talking about her . "Well , Pinky ,or Precious is a Slytherin. Bitch , thats what she is like all of her friends. Pureblood freak, I just found out this summer that she was staying to live with me and my sister. After all I stayed the whole summer with Brendon in Germany." Wanting to change the subject she smiled "So, where are you from?" she asked curiously changing the subject. |

Adrianne smiled at Melanie's mention of her brother, but scowled at her description of her sister. She hesitated a bit before telling Melanie about her family. But she decided to tell her the truth, Melanie didn't seem like her sister. "Well..... you see, I'm full blooded Native American..... and I'm a Muggleborn," Adrianne said slowly, almost changing her mind. She hesitated for a moment about telling her where she lived as well, for fear of being made fun of. "I live in the Epping Forest of London, in a small cabin with my parents and sister," Adrianne said nervously and quietly. "What about you? And what year are your siblings in?" Adrianne asked quickly, trying to change the subject. |

Melanie's eyes widened . "Native american?!!! Now thats ...cool! Muggle born eh? My brother is half-blood so I enjoy being around muggles." she smiled , she did mean what she said"You live in London ? I live in Liverpool ! Though I spend time in Germany. But you live in the forest? Amazing!" She smiled once more and looked over at the lake once more "Well, I am from here, England , but I am half Russian and half German . My mom was from Moscow, Russia and my father was from Madgeburg, Germany." She looked up at the sky as she talked about her parents who were ,well, dead. "Both of my siblings here are as 4th years just like me ..... By the way , what year are you in ?" |

Adrianne couldn't help but grin at the girl's enthusiasm. It lifted her spirits to see how interested her new friend was in her background. Most people thought it a bit odd. "Yeah, the Native American history goes way back. My parents even hold rituals once in a while that I'm required to attend," Adrianne explained. She was proud of her culture, and if people liked hearing about it, she enjoyed explaining. "That's really cool though, we're neighbors! And that's also really cool about how you're half Russian and German. What's Russia like? I've never been there." Adrianne asked enthusiastically. "Oh, and I'm a fourth year as well," Adrianne replied. Adrianne had noticed Melanie's past tense speaking of her parents. She wondered if maybe they had died, but she thought it best not to ask. |

Melanie was happy to see Adrianne grin . "That is so interesting , really you should tell me more. " she smiled , thinking of how cool her now , friend's culture was. Afterall her own culture was plain , the only thing she knew was that she was Russian and German and a little bit Jewish from her mom , but celebrated Christmas because she liked it ."Yeah , we're neighbors! " she gave a little giggle , before answering Adrianne's question about Russia "Well , Russia in my opinion is not a good place to live. Huge country but there are many many poor people . Though you should go for a little holiday . Red Square is my favorite place to visit, its in Moscow." She smiled , it has been such a long time that she hadnt talk about Russia "Though I dont know Russian , unfortunately , but german , I do know." |

To Adrianne, this was much more interesting then her everyday Indian Traditions. She listened intently, and her eyes widened at Melanie's mention that she knew some German. Adrianne looked up at the sky, the moon was out, and it was getting late. She was going to have to leave and get organized for tomorrow soon, but she decided to ask the girl about German first. "You know German? Can you show me something?" Adrianne asked excitedly. |

Smiling , she was happy that Adrianne was interested in german language. Happily she said, "I can show you something , sure .... Um. " Melanie thought for a few seconds what she can teach Adrianne. "Hallo , mein name ist Adrianne " She gave a little giggle before telling her what it meant . "That means , Hello , my name is Adrianne. " She laughed then crossed her arms together tightly so that she can get a bit warm. It was getting a bit late and cold. |

"Wow, that's really cool! Yeah I'm Native American, but I can't really speak any different languages. All I know is that my family were Cherokee Indians...." Adrianne explained. She glanced back up at the sky. It was getting very late and cold. "Well, I think I'm going to head up to the Common Room, and get organized for tomorrow," Adrianne said. "It was really nice meeting you, maybe I'll see you around soon." |

Melanie smiled as Adrianne told her that her family was Cherokee Indians . She thought that it was very interesting . "That is so interesting ." she said with another smile. "Yeah its getting pretty late and cold, I should get going too . It was a pleasure meeting you. See you around." Slowly Melanie turned around and headed back to the castle deciding in her head if she should go back to the great hall. |

Adrianne waved goodbye as she headed up to the castle. She couldn't believe she had already made three new friends on the first day. It looked like this would be a fun year at Hogwarts. Adrianne has left the grounds, and is heading up to the Gryffindor Common Room. |

Feeling he needed some fresh air, Tristan checked to make sure his wand was still in its holster before heading outside into the Grounds, breathing deep that of the Scottish mountains. He loved the Feast but felt it would be nice to digest his meal in quiet. Taking a seat underneath a large elm tree, he looked out peacefully over the lake, feeling totally at ease. |

Constanta slumped down the gentle slope from the castle, coming to stand by the lake. She wasn't hungry for supper, though she hadn't eaten at all that day. The train ride had been nice, riding in a compartment with no one but some exhausted Hufflepuff who fell asleep as soon as she sat down. The full moon had been only a few days ago, and Constanta still felt shaken by her transformation. It usually took her up to a week to fully recover from the shock it put on her system, and it seemed this time was no different. The stress of last-minute packing hadn't helped her mood. She was feeling sullen, which was hardly a far cry from how she usually felt, but usually she felt at least neutral. She noted an elm tree by the shore of the lake and went to sit by it, except there was someone else already there. "Excuse me," she muttered, her voice hoarse from disuse, "do you mind if I sit here? I won't bother you." |

Tristan glanced up from his thoughts, finding a Slytherin looking over him. His initial reaction was to be wary as most Slytherins were cause for concern or his wand, yet she seemed quite genlte and polite - not at all Slytherin-like. "Sure. Pull up a patch." He pulled his legs in, crossing them under himself. "I'm Tristan." OOC - A werewolf huh? Cool. |
