A few things to keep in mind as we begin to structure the site again.
Regarding Timeline and Plot:
- We are cannon to the end of Deathly Hallows (meaning that deaths that occurred in and leading up to Deathly Hallows are fact, and those characters are no longer playable)
- We do not accept Cursed Child as cannon (Delphi is not a character we will be adding to the canon list, and the events of that story are not applicable to this forum.
- Regardless of whether you are an existing or returning member, all members should reapply for A. Face Claims, B. Magical Abilities, C. Job Placements (Students or Staff), D. Status as a Dark Wizard.
Regarding Timeline and Plot:
- We find ourselves set in 2020, 22 years after the Battle of Hogwarts.
- Harry Potter's two eldest children, James and Albus, are 15 and 13 respectively.
- Since the fall of Voldemort in 1998, there have been inconsistent rumblings from many of his followers, many suggesting a resurgence of dark magic, but nothing concrete had been formed.
- Late in 2019, these rumblings became more prevalent as a group of students whose families had been deep rooted in the dark arts banded together to form an underground society, They call themselves the filii tenebris, latin for Dark Children, and find joy in terrorizing fellow students who are not of pureblood status. They are known only among themselves and operate secretly.
- Several attacks have occurred in varying degrees, in some cases they appear to be pranks, buckets of much being poured over groups of students by seemingly no one, changes to other student's physical appearances (spells to cut their hair, shave their eyebrows, swell their fingers, etc.), in other instances things have been more aggressive: scrawling "The Chamber of Secrets has been opened, enemies of the heir beware," on many bathroom mirrors castle wide, charming the armor to follow students and chant mudblood and other such things as they travel from class to class. And in the most recent and alarming of the attacks, a student was found stupefied and tied up outside of the Gryffindor common room, the letters FT etched into their left wrist.
- Parents and teachers alike are becoming more and more concerned about the events related to the FT as the number of incidents begin to climb.
- This year, the FT will continue to terrorize Hogwarts' students, and if they are not properly discovered, may pose a real threat to the safety of those within the school
