[OOC] Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

[paigesweetheart]

Oooh. I love the trains xD

[-AcE-]

I think boarding the Hogwarts Express would be cool :D but I'm flexible with anything

[Rune_Alchemist]

I'm going with boarding the Hogwarts express as the first option.

But I'm cool with anything.

Wow, you guys like to make me read hahaha...Thestral hairs are not going to pass... i'm sorry i didn't see that, i was looking more of the "Elder" wood that the elder wand has, and not the core haha....And if its a class at Hogwarts, and has been mentioned, no matter how difficult it is, people can still be interested in it haha, and with that said, if it really is a difficult thing to master, you can't be a pro at it, and it'll probably be kinda depressing haha, so i recommend being easy on yourself hahahaAnd since there's been modifications and new additons of the CS, It'll take me a bit to read through them all again hahaha, so please be patient with me! hahaThe IC will be up soon, and I think applications will also be closed very soon

It's not a class. There is no class to become an animagi. That's why nobody knew the Marauders became animagi. That's why it's worrying. Just thought I'd point that out to you, but again, you are the GM. It's your decision. (:

at Harry Potter world in Universal Studios, they gave you wands based on your birthday and my wand was made out of vine, but my Pottermore wand is hazel. i might change it to that.

I went to HP World over Spring Break and....

I GOT NO WAND!

Well, not like you did anyway. I bought one, Voldemort's wand.

[Soul]

A bit late, but I wouldn't mind the Hogwarts Express starter either. I'd assume that people would be saying their tearful goodbyes, boarding their own compartments, and generally waiting for the Express to take them to school?

If so, I'll start on my starter post right now. I'm extremely bored, and I have to wait for Larfleeze to come back on tomorrow before I start the creation of my Lantern character.

haha oh, i was thinking of transfiguration :I gahd its a good thing im re reading the books!! haha i'm sorry... I'll still let people play out that kind of thing though, i don't want to be too strict on the Potter world, this is supposed to be fun! haha

I also read through everyone's CS again, and will PM the ones who have very minor things that seem to be incorrect haha, and i also updated the list of characters, and put their years, and updated my a little bit, starting to remember some Potter knowledge hahaha

I'll post the IC soon to start us off, so stay tuned!!

Sooo...wait, you're allowing Animagi? Now I'm tempted to have Acacia either learn or have her secretly be one.

Having her secretly be one would suit her, I think xP

[-AcE-]

Quick question: What year are we in? Also for the Hogwarts Express, all compartments are free to anyone right? I know that there's a special carriage or something for the Slug Club but when you board, you can basically sit anywhere right?

Yeah, but Apokalipse said that its very hard to learn, so keep that in mind haha

So Hogwarts Reopened the year 2017, so lets say..... 2024, because we have a 7th year in the RP haha, and yeah, all compartments are free to sit in, but most usually go in to their own little houses and friend groups like that haha

They'll have to find out first xP

And I'm reading up on it now~

[Apokalipse]

I'm going to make mine probably become an animagi. though, it doesn't specify how your supposed to do it. I just know that its difficult because J.K. Rowling said it was...Hm. I won't do it right away, maybe later on if the RP going on for long.

[Rune_Alchemist]

It's also dangerous, and may backfire and cause the transformation to go horribly wrong. xP

Hrm...

[Soul]

I wonder what my Animagus form would be.

Hn...

Probably a crow, or a sort of wolf. Maybe even a snake.

[Rune_Alchemist]

I'm going with a Red Fox for Acacia's.

Now to decide whether she'll learn it or have her already know how to do it xP

[RumikoOhara]

If you're forth year an above you should list your Patronous

It'd be interesting if she were to be learning it in secret. Makes for interesting interaction. :D

I may have Artemis read about it in the 'Restricted' section of the library. I think you have to make some sort of potion for it.

http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Animagus

Only very powerful and skilled wizards and witches are able to become Animagi. The process of becoming an Animagus is long and arduous, and has the potential to backfire and cause the transformation to go horribly wrong. Many witches and wizards simply feel that their time might better be employed in other ways, as the skill is of limited practical use unless one has a great need of disguise or concealment. Once the initial training is over, an Animagus can change at will, with or without a wand.

Just says very difficult training is involved. Nothing about a potion.

However, it would be awesome if they learned how to do it together. They could sneak into the restricted section together or something xD
