THE RULES


001. The first rule is all about RPG rules, which applies in this roleplay. Nothing too graphic shall be written here.

002. This roleplay is labeled mature, which means that romance is encouraged, but please note that we're dealing with teens in the roleplay so anything after making out must be faded to black. Swearing is okay, drinking is okay and drugs are okay. If any of these makes you uncomfortable then please do not join. There also might even be character deaths, NPC though. Probably PC, as well.

003. Be respectful to all writers involved. No OOC drama, at all but IC drama, is definitely encouraged and welcomed. No God-modding, metagaming or auto hitting and do not write another character's actions besides your own.

004. This roleplay is also labeled semi-lit to literate. A few mistakes here or there are fine since we all make them but please, do not let it be in every single post. Please be able to post at least two to three paragraphs per post and per character. Writer's block is totally understandable but absolutely no one-liners.

005. Be active and communicate with us, please. Not asking for a post every day but every two or three days will make me happy. If you are unable to post for an extended period of time please let us know via OOC.

006. If you want to reserve a face claim, color or whatever, better let me know and I'll jot it down for you. Let's at least try to have a little bit of diversity in the roleplay, not just with ethnicities but also, sexuality, personalities, and backgrounds.

007. Lastly, just have fun with the roleplay. Do not take anything seriously here. Contribute to the roleplay, too as this isn't just my roleplay, it is our roleplay.

008. Okay, this is the last rule, which isn't really a rule but you are allowed to portray as many characters you can handle. The character sheet is located in the character tab, by the way.

Welcome to Salem Witches Institute, the sister school that is equivalent to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. It's considered one of the biggest institutes in the United States for witches and warlocks alike and it's a bit more modernized than Hogwarts and accepts students from various kinds of cultures. A new era has dawned upon the institute and this year has been deemed to be quite a shocker for the oncoming students. Their uniform policy is not like that of Hogwarts but there is a dress code, which is much more formal than anything else. That means that guys dressed up in all black suits, with white buttoned-up, collared shirts and a black tie with black dress shoes and socks while the girls dress in a white buttoned-up, collared shirt and a black skirt that's at least two inches above the knee with black heels and socks. Also, forget the stories you have heard about the ghosts of witches stalking the building because it's not true. No ghosts or ghouls lurk the hallowed halls of the institute.

The never forgotten stories that still exist from the Salem Witch Trials time period still hangs over the town of Salem like a dark black cloud. The ones that we're able to escape and flee far away from the ongoing witch hunt, only to return whenever the madness had folded. But they weren't crazy enough to return back to Salem, instead, they dwelled in a nearby town, called Boston. This is when the preparations began between these four witches to open up a magic school, which they succeeded to do so. A few years passed by and the school increased in the year of 1952 and relocated to an area where many witches were burned at the stake in Salem. The four founders of the school designed it to be specifically an all-girls institute, teaching them how to hone their abilities, along with giving them an education in safety and defense. Around the time, wizarding or magical schools in America were only opened to men so Salem Witches Insititute was the first and only school to be all women.

Although, today a new era has dawned upon the institute and things are bound to be shaken up. Originally an all-girls school for witches, it has now opened it's doors to accept men or warlocks. Many people were distraught upon receiving the news and some even took their daughters out of the school because of the recent change. The outrage lasted for an entire summer but died down once the letters were sent out for the upcoming school year. Another change to the institute is that they only accept witches and warlocks as early as fourteen years of age. Since the boy's entry into the prestigious institute, a string of disappearances has occurred but only among the warlocks. People are left stunned, well not everyone because the girls are fine and dandy and is not worried by the disappearances in the slightest bit. Though, most feel and fear for the warlocks and also wonder what the hell is going on. If only they knew that someone among their own ranks is behind the disappearances, will the girls finally coincide with the boys? Or will the girls band together and not make it their problem? This year is shaping up to be on the highway to hell so you better buckle up and be in for one hell of a ride.

THE HOUSES




House Danvers was founded by Alyssa Danvers, who believed that the institute should provide newer ways of teaching toward the students. The witches and wizards that are placed in this house value helpfulness and sacrifice. Its members are known for being very passive and fun-loving and healers along with entertainers. The house animal sigil is a crow and their rooms, there is a boys and girls side, reside on the east side of campus and the warlock headmaster office resides here, too.



House Ipswich was founded by Emilia Ipswich, who was also credited for the idea of an all-girl institute in America. The members of this house value loyalty along with good deeds and honor above just about anything else. This house consists of pure-blood witches and wizards, which usually means that its members are really serious and very judgemental of others. Their rooms, which are co-ed, are located on the south side of the campus and their animal sigil is a black labrador.



House Andover was founded by Rebeka Andover and it's the only largest house. Its members value leadership and independence much more than anything else. This house consists of scholars above anything else and that's really about it within this house. Their animal sigil is a white stallion and rooms, which are co-ed are located on the west side of the campus, which is also where the headmistress office is.



It is no doubt who this house was founded by and if you think Sarah Goode, you'd be dead wrong. This house was founded by Isabella Goode and its members favor traditional magic much more than anything else. This house is also known for producing some of the best minds in modern magic in America. Members that are in this house value curiosity and creativity and most of them are rather aloof in a sense. The animal sigil is a red fox and their rooms, there is a boys and girls side, are located on the north side of the campus near Witch Lake, which can be seen from their windows.

ACADEMICS


The institute, just like any other wizarding school in America has different forms of testing. In the sixth year, students can decide to take MAPS, which is Magic Advancement Studies, and are rigorous courses than your regular studies that are taken for a full year instead of half a year. MAPS courses are available to prepare students for a higher-level job once they graduate and the scores range from 1, which is considered Troll through 5, which is considered Mentor. In the last year of school, students are required to take one or two tests, the International Wizarding Empirical Performance (I-WEP) or American Wizarding Test (AWT). These tests are taken into consideration for any job or career that requires post educational witchcraft or wizardry. The I-WEP test consists of one written portion and the second portion is a physical study of the student's choosing, like potions or charms or whatever. The AWT consists of two separate tests as there is one with transfiguration and one without transfiguration. Both tests are scored between 0 (Okay) to 50 (Outstanding).

Astronomy
Herbology
Apparition
Care Of Magical Creatures
Arithmancy
Muggle Studies

OOC INFORMATION


I just wanted to give a brief premise of a few things here. There is no wand-waving magic here because this isn't Harry Potter. Everything magic wise is either through casting a spell, chanting a spell or a simple thought because we are dealing with witches and warlocks. At the beginning of the roleplay, a total of four boys have disappeared already with a recent disappearance just being discovered. The school is at a bit of a panic and the warlocks are practically blaming the witches for the disappearances. Just to add a dash of drama to the roleplay at the beginning. But we will be starting with it being the third week of school ICly.
