“Yeah, it’s weird that we were each drawn to a specific colored crystal,” Tommy agreed. “We should definitely go ask Professor Cranston.”

“I’ll call him and let him know we’re coming!” Eddie added excitedly.

The teens loaded up into their vehicles and headed for the Youth Science Lab at Angel Grove High School. They brought the strange metal container and all the weird glowing crystals to Billy Cranston, who studied them with awe.

“So what do you think, Professor?” Eddie inquired.

“Well, I would be worried about glowing crystals giving off potentially harmful radiation, but the container you found them in doesn’t seem to have any warning labels. Still, it’s best to be cautious and keep them in a sealed containment unit for now. This isn’t my particular field of specialty, but I know a nuclear physicist who is an expert in dealing with radioactive materials. Let me give her a call real fast.” Professor Cranston placed the crystals and their container in a sealed unit and then pulled out his phone, retreating to his office while he made the call.

“I hope those crystals aren’t actually radioactive,” said Eddie as the teens sat around a table in the lab waiting for the Professor to finish his call. “That would suck if we all got cancer or something.”

“It didn’t feel harmful, though,” added Tommy. “It feels almost like there is something bigger going on here. I have this growing urge to open that containment unit and take that red crystal back. Like, destiny calling out to me or something. I don’t know, it’s hard to explain.”

“I gotta admit, I’m starting to feel the same way,” Eddie confessed. “Like, being separated from the blue crystal is giving me a growing sense of unease. What about you guys?” He turned to the rest of the group.

Sorry all, got caught up in the Throne and Liberty Open Beta with some friends and lost track of time. The Beta period ends tomorrow and we're trying to get as far as possible before the servers close, but after that, getting caught up on RP stuff will be my top priority.

My next post should be along at some point tonight or tomorrow.

Wizard Mafia (Harry Potter Organized Crime RP)

Sorry all, been trying to come up with a good intro that gets all our characters together, been having some brain farts LOL. Starlance's character is just starting out and Belial's character has 9-12 years experience but only officially joined up with the Family a few years ago, right? Is he Made yet or no? WhiteAngel, did you have an idea how experienced your monster collector character is? Is she just beginning as an Associate or is she already a Made Member? If none of your characters are Made yet, and if Belail is okay saying his character is only just now officially joining the Family as an Associate after working 9-12 years as an independent agent, then my character could be an Acting Capo who is put in charge of the new recruits. That would be four people on our mini crew, but we could also play extra characters to bolster the numbers up.

So, assuming we go that route, here is my idea starting out: The Blood Pack are a low-level street gang of criminal Animagi who all turn into creatures you would normally see in New York City, like rats and birds and other little critters. Normally they know to stay out of the Family's way and just target No-Majes for pickpocking and petty theft. But now it's been discovered that they opened up their own speakeasy in Central Park, which is a huge no-no - the Family has made it clear to all the smaller gangs that they control all magical alcohol coming in and out of the city. So the Boss promotes my character to Acting Capo and gives him some new recruits and sends them off to wreak a little havoc in the speakeasy. They think the Blood Pack is small fish and it's mostly just supposed to be an easy mission to test us out as a potential crew. But after we ransack the place and throw a few Unforgivable Curses around, we find a coin in the pocket of the gang leader with a black raven sigil on it - the sigil of the Corvonero Family from Boston. Why would a lowly street gang have a Corvonero coin? From here we begin to unravel the mystery, come up against other street gangs, before eventually stumbling into an all out gang war between the two Families. What do you think?

No worries!

I'm so excited for this RP you guys don't even know! :D

@CaptainManbeard When can we expect a base CS? I mean I have the basics but I would like to flush out my character. :)

@WhiteAngel25

I was going up upload it with the intro post but was waiting till we figured out exact how our characters get together. But to give you an idea, the CS will be very similar to the ones from my Power Rangers RP here, but replace Ranger Powers with Magical Specialties: https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/192732-power-rangers-dragon-morphers/char

And here is a list of spells in the Wizarding World, but don't worry about listing which ones they know, we'll just pull from this list during actual play as needed: https://harrypotter.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_spells

@CaptainManbeard

I suppose a compromise is, he's got some knowledge of Goblin locks. Not fantastically quite yet maybe? Say enough to work at it.

But those Goblin locks are going to take a little longer to work through let's say. He still has to carefully step his way through it, Every Goblin lock is a learning experience. But with every Gobby lock he learns something new or gets to hone what he knows and gets better everytime.

I mean 38 is plenty of time to learn true. But it's still lots of time to learn and get better.

As for lots of students fighting during the BAttle of Hogwarts. You know the real implications right? Lots of Firsties fought...without any combat spell knowledge. Alot of them would have died because they didn't know how to cast anything more then MAYBE MAYBE MAYBE an Expelliarmus. 3rd year and up they have more experience with casting Reducto, and other combat spells. The 3rds and up would have had more likely chances to survive. But alot of 1sts and 2nds. Not so sure. So alot of those Firsties and Seconds? May have died during the BoH...

Makes ya think huh?

@BigPapaBelial

Well, Harry did have those private DA classes he taught in 5th year, and some of that knowledge may have been passed down. Plus the entire school year leading up to the BoH, dark wizards were influencing Hogwarts classes, they even taught them Dark Arts and forced students to cast Unforgivable Curses against each other. But even before that, they had Defence Against the Dark Arts classes, and we can take a look at Harry and Draco's duel in 2nd year to get an idea.

As for your character, we can see how it all plays out once we get the RP going, but your character should be prepared for much more than simple safecracking, given that they'll be going up against fellow magical criminals and dark wizards who play dirty XD.

@CaptainManbeard

As awesome as it sounds to have those skills. I am beginning to think that's a little op boss.

Being able to feel out a mechanical and magilock with wand work and a lock picking kit sure. But I feel like having an in depth knowledge of goblin mechanical locks would be abit overboard for a 38 year old wizard. Maybe someone in then 80s who has had time and has stolen siblin, dearven and gnomish lock text sure.

But I'm trying to make my guy have a little experience not tons of experience. He still has some room to grow.

Personally feel like if he's got knowledge on how to crack a gringos safe he's been working way way way longer then I want to portray, you know?

@BigPapaBelial

Well, you said he's got 9-12 years experience, so if he's been cracking magical safes that long without dying, he has to have gathered at least some knowledge on all different types of locks and safes. Otherwise he would have touched a safe that turned out to be a portkey right into a monster's lair ages ago XD. After all, magical criminals would likely go to great lengths to protect their Dragots (US magical currency). And a 38 year old wizard is capable of MUCH, even kids can do some powerful magic in the books, movies, and games lol. Voldemort was able to create his first Horcrux at only 16 years old. And of course plenty of young people fought in the Battle of Hogwarts at the end of Deathly Hallows.

Here's a bunch of American wizards repairing New York City:

Here's Newt Scamander repairing an apartment:

Here's Gellert Grindelwald vs Tina Goldenstein and Newt Scamander:

Here's a younger Dumbledore vs Grindelwald:

And of course there's Fred and George's fireworks display:

And here is some Dark Arts combat in Hogwarts Legacy:
