I just don't know what the GM wants and I don't want to get anyone's hopes up, since I'm only helping, hoping to be one of the Co-GMs when this goes up. But I'm actually really down for a Salem school! It's all sorts of ironic humor I don't like Arizona heat D:

From what I see you're doing a fantastic job. ^^

@HushedWhispers *gasp* You joined the party!

@HushedWhispers *gasp* You joined the party!

Yeah. I gave in after constant lurking. Haha.

We are definitely getting there guys! I want to post a list of possible schools soon to see how you guys like the line-up. =)

Oh my gosh! Do it xD

Still praying on Egypt

These are my favorites: Arizona, Italy, Chile, Argentine, Polynesia, Germany, Maldives, Russia, Egypt, Australia, Japan, Beijing, and the Lousiana school.

And these are @PhunkyPhoebe's: Italy, Japan, Arizona, Egypt, Greece, Beijing, Chile, Mexico, South Korea, and Amsterdam, and Ireland.

Still waiting to hear @dee's favorites =)

Using a character from Egypt I would think that we'd have the advantage in the curses category right? We the people of the great ancient land are known for taking curse breaking up as an occupation, in order to break a curse you'd have to know how to cast it correct?

I would guess we'd be the top tier at deciphering prophecies also. Due to possible run-ins with the sphinx (problem solving and theory skills) and immeasurable catalag of magical text and scrolls (vast access to lost and historical knowledge) in the library of Alexandria, applying all aspects together we'd be a pretty threatening community. Comparing intellect I would think South India would top us though.

Magic has been all over the world in various types of folklore. The fey of the Gaelic, the spirituality of the Chinese and Japanese, South America's Incas and Aztecs, the golem of Judaism, the shamans of Native Americans. Of which I personally think is one of the oldest, considering they crossed over to the continent via the old ice bridge that eventually collapsed due to continental drift and such.

There all sorts of ways that each of these schools could be top in their respective fields. Egyptians, though known for their curses on the pharaohs' tombs, are more known for their huge advances in medicine, crafts, and time keeping at the time.

As for curses, there are defensive spells and offensive spells. Knowing the best defense wouldn't mean knowing the best offense, inherently. =) Say your character knows hexes up the wazoo, but barely has an any defensive knowledge other than a basic protego, he/she could be easily overwhelmed by a spell that doesn't directly affect the user, but possibly the area around the target, like Transfiguration.

Well it looks like I've got probable cause to have a Phoenix feather wand core. Phoenixes being native to Egypt and all, it goes hand and hand with medicine (magical healing tears). I'll be using alot of unknown/forgotten spells in this RP. I'm currently attempting to create my own little world of wizardry right now for this topic so I'll have quick notes and material to pull from to throw in IC. This is soo fun, I get to duel wield studying and roleplaying.

As for other locations though I hope we don't have access to all the same opportunities, spells, and items as other students. The Japanese being masters of wandless magic is one reason I want my wizard to interact with those hailing from the far east, to obtain the knowledge of such, and it'd be lame for everyone to be able to walk around wandless throwing fire balls.....just saying. There's a piece of knowledge I want from all schools to achieve my own goals within the RP. And don't fret, my personal goals will not conflict with any plot you and the other GMs are crafting.

@M00N Just try not to make your character magically infallible, it sounds like you want to make a super wizard here lol Remember, these are going to be basically kids like the HP crew was, so there wouldn't have been as much time as would be necessary to learn all of the subjects you want your character to be versed in. Hermione herself needed a TimeTurner to keep up with her course studies and she is possibly the brightest witch of the age! Secondly, our characters will be traveling to each of these school anyway, where you'll get the chance to learn their advanced courses when not trying to save the wizarding world

I absolutely hate OP characters. So not at all would I be even attempting to make a super wizard. I just wanna exceptional one lol. @WittyWolf knowledge is power, with knowledge anything can be accomplished. I only seek wisdom and information, for mischevious reasons of course. Also, are there going to be any student from Hogwarts? Just wondering.

Alright, then I can't wait to see your character in action! ^_^ And yes, Hogwarts will be included in the list of schools sending representatives.

The list of schools being toured are in, but may be subject to change ^-^
Ireland, Chile, Beijing, Italy, Arizona, Egypt, Polynesia, Caribbean, Germany, Russia, South Korea, and Japan!

Now I'd just like to get a roll call from all interested so we know the minimum amount of students going on the tour! That way we know to include more schools or raise the cap of students per school. Thanks a bunch! =)

Here!
