[quote=VenatrixXII] Jannah is close to finishing his essay, or if you would all rather he join later on, then we can start soon. Still never got a group vote on our meeting place. France, and we all already know each other (or at least to a degree)? Arlear and Fowlishness have not replied to my pm's but, again, if it's cool with everyone, they can join later. Drama could hinder their departing, etc. How would you all like this to start out? Instant, pulled to the core of the climax by being present when something crazy happens? Treat it like a vacation and wander until we get into trouble? Would you like to try and blend in with Muggle's and we all take a flight on a plane? [/quote] If Jannah has to wait a few days to upload a character it'll take a few days after that before the character is accepted and the RP begins - knowing RP's, it'd be another week before we can begin! I, at least, can't wait that long. :P France is a good place to start for me. Johann can be staying with his sister and he'll meet y'all there. Don't see why not. No idea; clearly there are some old plots from the last incarnation I'm not aware of so I'll go with whatever. I'd be surprised if a group of wizards wouldn't take a portkey, but if we start a little way in it almost doesn't matter.
