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?

General Information:
Full name: Philippa Jenny Saunders
Nickname(s): Call her Pippa.
Pronunciation: Pih-pah Sawn-dahs
Gender: Female
Birthdate: August 8th.
Age: 16
Year: Sixth Year.
Blood: Half-blood.
Wand: 11", Cypress wood, with a dragon heartstring core.
Preferred House: Slytherin.

Appearance:
Height: 5ft 3"
Eyes: Brown, average size.
Hair: Brown, comes to just below her ear.

Physical Description:
Pippa is short. A lot shorter than she wishes she was, but she's accepted that she can't change how she looks, so it's not a big deal. Up until quite recently, she had long, rather bushy brown hair, which annoyed her immensely. Eventually, she got tired of how dry and split her ends got, and how it was difficult to style. So she had it cut short. The change of hair probably made her look a lot better to other people, but she doesn't consider herself to be attractive. She's got a slightly too square-shaped face, eyebrows that should be plucked more often than they are, and more weight on her than she would really like to have. At the end of the day, though, Pippa is okay with how she looks, and dresses (which is normally just shorts--with tights--and a t-shirt), so her appearance really isn't an issue.

Personality:
Pippa is quiet, mostly - not shy, just quiet. The sort of person that prefers listening to other people talk than actually getting involved in the conversation herself, mostly because she's not always sure what to say. She's not fantastic in social situations, sometimes just coming off as being awkward, which she dislikes, because in that sense, she's also kind of insecure. People's thoughts and feelings mean an awful lot to her, and she hates to come off the wrong way. That said, however, Pippa herself can be very judgemental. She tries to keep an open mind, but generally, the first impression you give her is the one she tends to go by. She'll judge you on how you look, dress, speak, or even act to her, and once she's made that judgement, she tends to stick by it.

Philippa has a mean streak. She doesn't take well to people who confront her angrily, and responds in a similar manner when talking to them. She's been horrendous to people (even friends) in her past, and has very little patience. She's reigned in her temper somewhat from her younger years, but there is a certain amount of malevolence, which often shines through in moments where she lacks patience. She's quick to snap, and prefers to do things herself, on her own. Pippa can hold a mean grudge, but she's always quick to forgive, because really, she loves her friends, and she loves helping them.

Pippa has an inquiring mind, and is much too curious for her own good - something which she knows, but does little to change. If something sounds interesting to her, chances are, she'll question you about it. Or if she walks in on a conversation that sounds vaguely cool, then she'll intrude on it, and ask you what you're talking about. If you don't tell her, though, expect to be nagged. Or at least be ready some neat little reverse-psychology tricks, because if that information seems important to her, then by Merlin, she's going to get it out of you.

History:
Philippa was the first child of John and Anne Saunders, a witch mother, and a muggle father. They met when Anne (an auror) was assisting the British Police Force in capturing a killer (who just so happened to be a wizard). Sean, at the time, was a volunteer for the police department, and the rest, as they say, was history. A couple of years after their first meeting, they married, and a year-or-so after that, gave birth to Philippa, who was... a rather difficult child. If she was a muggle, it would've been bad enough, but the fact she had magical powers which were running haywire, was enough to put any parents through their paces. And then, four years later, Dominic came along. It was great for Philippa to have company, but eventually she grew sick of her annoying younger brother - especially when her parents had another boy, named Scott, three years after Dominic was born.

Life in the Saunders' home was average, if a little crazy. They weren't rich, but nor where they poor, and they lived in a quaint little village for a lot of Pippa's childhood. She was, admittedly, a little spoiled. At least, she hates it when she doesn't get her own way these days, so she's sort of assumed that there must have at least been a little of spoiling going on.

Family:
John Saunders, Anne Saunders, Dominic Saunders, and Scott Saunders.
Pet(s): Well, her cat gets around a lot at home, so there's a bunch of kittens there. But she didn't want to bring one with her, and just uses the Hogwarts owls whenever she wants to send letters.
Possessions: Just the usual.
