[OOC] The Ministry of magic has fallen- they are coming- A Harry Potter RP

[TheDookieNut]

@Jannah do not worry! :) you have a character im totally suspicious of and we won't go far :)

[TheDookieNut]

@Eschatologist@Jannah

Hey guys! The IC is up!

Basically we're just starting off on a usual day. Its 9am on possibly a Thursday. I just wanted to set the screen. Also I apologise if that post was too long, I got excited because I haven't played George in over a year and he's up there with one of my favourite creations. :3

Feel free to create NPCs and interact with those, or even come join the conversation.

It's our story, lets see where it takes us :)

---------------------------

As a heads up, I will probably start introducing loads of new characters so random side characters I make that are important to the story or just get mentioned a lot, I'll make them character sheets but just real basic ones, they'll all be in the same post as George to make things easier to find.

[Jannah]

Alright, sheet is done.

[TheDookieNut]

@Jannah Sweeet! Wait for Crafty and we'll be able to set off :)

@Jannah
Overall I'm happy with that he's an interesting little character. I am very interested in how you will write his conflict and his way with words. I look forward to lots of hidden meanings that we have to ignore. I like his boggart alot, very nicely written.

I just have quick question regarding his position in the wizengamot as you say he is somewhat a lawyer. To my knowledge there are no/ very few wizarding lawyers so can you just clarify that part of the sheet and what his current role is.

Clarify that and I'm very happy for you to pop it in the character tab and get cracking on a post.

________________________
Just to say
3 offensive magic experts and caroline lol, might have to make this a slightly more combat based rp than I intended to get the best out of them :)

Lovely first post IDK, and good choices. As she also said

New NPC's- get a bit carried away and a guy/ girl you were interacting with to flesh out your posts has morphed into a monster of an idea your just dying to bring to life into the rp. Write up a charactor sheet post it in the tab I'm all for it. We have a whole ministry, snatchers and a number of unnamed death eaters to flesh out. Bring it on.
----------------------------------------------------

My intention is to let you both post once to get yourselves settled in then start leading the rp a little bit to take us through the early stages.
You will still have full control of your charactors obviously I will just start putting scenarios in front of you fairly early on to let you test out your new characters :)

If you are intending to take any really dramatic action like apparating everyone the hell out of there or using an unforgivable I would appreciate you either pm me to check your idea out or leave the post open ended so I can fit it into the story. I don't want to stifle anyone's creativity and if an idea is good I will sure as hell run with it.

If in doubt check with me I have a phone on me the majority of the time so will get back to you asap

It will then reach a point where we can all sit down in ooc and ic and decide where we are going to take our charactors as in our fightback against you know who. I have some ideas as does IDK but I want yours as well, the more the merrier

Thank you everyone for being a part of this. Really appreciate it and can't wait :) Hope you enjoy

[TheDookieNut]

Before too long I'll have the whole Hit Wizard team up and running XD minus one as he's in he hospital haha

Don't worry! We will have plenty of none offensive characters soon :3 <- I wanted that to be a evil face but it just didn't happen XD

[Jannah]

@the crafty pig lol I mean it in the context that the Wizengamot are essentially the Wizarding World's version of lawyers. They're the ones overseeing all the trials and such just like how lawyers would in real life.

As for my guy being offensive, I felt it more fitting. Especially if he's gonna join the Death Eaters' side eventually >.>.

[TheDookieNut]

@Jannah
I can imagine George and him do not get on XD They'd see each other fairly regularly and George doesn't do paperwork XD not unless he can help it. Oh they would be the best of friends :P

@Jannah

Had to clarify in case he had an additional role I wasn't aware of

Think it's a question of interpretation I guess I see them more as judges or magistrates than lawyers because they pass sentence

I'm fine with it
post him in the characters tab and your good to get posting

ta

[the crafty pig]

aware it's 4th of July for those you across the pond.
Enjoy your independence from your colonial oppressors or in this case your gm and co gm.



Have a great time.
Would like to get this rp moving sooner rather than later so an eta on post time would be appreciated when you get a shot

[Eschatologist]

I will try to get a post up soon: work has been pretty rough recently, but I have Monday off, which is the absolute latest I will be able to post.

Tangentially, I am not quite sure what Billy's up to, or what the general status of the coup is. Some extra guidance would be helpful, I reckon.

@Eschatologist

@jannah

No problem. Sorry if it wasn't clear, it's my bad, probably should have been more specific but the idea was to give you a bit of freedom early on. You can literally be anywhere doing anything and I will work into the story. The next events make it very easy to bring people together

All you need to know is it's 9am on the morning of a normal day at work so what is Billy's normal work routine. Literally he can be up to anything. When I begin to lead the rp you will have far more specific instructions but for now I really just want you to paint me a word picture.

Maybe 9am isn't a big deal to Billy, perhaps he is leading a training group and being a military man he starts training early so has already been there for hours. Perhaps he is writing a letter to people back home. Perhaps he is just working out, keep himself in shape before a day of standing around or filling out forms. Genuinely it's up to you, this is just a post to set the scene.

Does that give you something more to work on?....any further questions or worries just drop me a pm

[Eschatologist]

I'll get something posted asap. Thanks, that was all I needs to know.

[Eschatologist]

@the crafty pig Not particularly pleased with this first post, but it will have to do. I hope it at least approaches the required standard; if not, blame my shitty job for giving me 11 hour shifts.

[TheDookieNut]

@Eschatologist
I've not read it yet but I'm sure it's going to be fine :)

@Eschatologist

That's ok this was really just an intro and it gave me everything I needed so absolutely fine.

If you got higher standards than thats great try hit em next time but it was an interesting post and gives me something to work with

I will give @Jannah a little more time but will start writing the next update so we can move on sooner rather than later

[the crafty pig]

@Jannah @Eschatologist @TheDookieNut
hi guys,

just letting you all know

I have written the majority of the update so am ready to go sooner rather than later. I hope it gives you clearer guidelines this time and gives you somewhere to go. I do try and tailor my style to your so if you feel like I am giving you too much to do or too much information or taking too much control let me know and I will work something out. I would rather you told me early on than resent.

I plan to give Jannah 24 hours as she has been gone for 4 days and she did say she was busy. If she gives us an eta we will of course hold up for her. If not I will post the update at about 11pm gmt tomorrow and we can feed her in midway through.

[the crafty pig]

@eschatologist

hi escha

thank you for posting so quickly
sound post overall but there is one slight issue with your combat technique, you can't apparate in the ministry of magic only in the atrium so you wouldn't be able to pop up behind him.

it's a nice idea but better served for when we get to the atrium :)
you reckon you'd be able to get it editted?

thanks,

[Eschatologist]

Whoops. I did not know that, I'll get it all squared away right now. Sorry about that.

[TheDookieNut]

I'm sorry if my posts end up long..
I get carried away
