Take your time no rush :)
Billy:
Even as you move into the room you can still hear thuds against the door. It's curious, you've blown holes in the wall but they seem in no hurry to imitate your efforts. It's like they only have a single thought in their head... get through that door. The door rattles on it's hinges and you can hear jinxes and counter jinxes being fired at the door.

The thought seems to have struck the beanpole next to you and he looks at you with a question in his eye. He moves to the far edge of the room and gives his wand a complicated little wave. The wall in front of you disappears. Your looking through it but you can tell it's still there. It's like your looking through water.

He shrugs as you look at him

"I got the idea from muggle police stations... it's like one way glass... wall for them... glass for us"

You turn your focus to what's through the wall. There are 12 wands there 10 focused singularly on the door. Your good but even with your talent 3 against 12 aren't favourable odds even if you can manufacture the element of surprise. The final two that haven't focused on the door are standing backs to the lifts... the only thought in their heads seems to be guard the lifts ... the other 10 are focused on the door... better odds if you can do it quietly

back up would take time to bring up... your running out of time... you need to find the minister. Get yourself into the lifts and up to the first floor which is oddly deserted

George

Your running following the path the death eater promised you, you keep running but you can't find her.... first corridor people filing towards the exits, take a left two wizards from the department of magical accidents and catastrophes come out sealing the door with an M, they raise their wands as you pass but you wave them down... another left... people filing to another exit.... then a right empty corridor filled with glowing red M's. You stop wand in your hand.... you can almost her his laughter in your head... bastard... absolute bastard...

Even as you turn to run back to the room you here a voice from the walls

"Never turn your back on a snake" it's not an unkind voice, empathetic but their is a hint of dissapointment in his tone and knowing in his eyes. You turn to the wall and see the famous face of Eldritch Diggory looking down at you. "they will always find a way to bite you in the butt. "

he gives you a nod a little chuckle

"Minister of magic for 14 years now reduced to the glorious position of owl. Blackwell needed information and they were shooting down the memos....they're bottlenecked up their.."

" First floor is a ghost town, 3rd and 5th are in chaos. They need you. Rally what you can... if we can open up the second floor we've got a chance"

duty heavier than a mountain
you've got caroline potentially in danger.... a man with the voice of a death eater that wanted you out of the way and talked of more here but they need you and as many as you can gather upstairs.... is it even a choice?
Morning all

Update will be coming today... first game of the new prem season yesterday so we had all my mates round and went out the night before.. first night out in about 5 months and I was sooooo hungover. Queue next weekend with the first nfl preseason game where I will once again be battered.

Fresh and ready to get this going today :)

I did however want to respond to the small influx of new people and their reasons for not creating characters. A couple of questions about gm style have been raised that I wanted to address and check you guys were ok with it or if you would prefer me to adapt a bit to the norm around here.

When i started rping and gming I was playing with a d and d based crowd where the gm was less a poster and more a guide.

I also find that the style I am using is better for smaller group rps with a set story as people can get bogged down and struggle for somewhere to go which causes them to loose interest. This is not so bad in a typical world based rp which can easily have high character turn over but in a small group rp can really destabilise the whole thing..

The way I gm is designed to ensure you always have somewhere to go and something to say but I do realise it's not the norm for round here. I am also very happy for you to pm me ideas and to change my updates if you have an idea you want to run with.

The idea is that we will move a little more away from this style of things anyway once the minsitry has fallen. I will become less of a gm and more Caroline and a variety of npcs once we get through this original part of the ministry falling which will in turn allow you to be more free.

If you do feel I'm not giving you enough freedom let me know or if you would prefer more free form updates just let me know.

As for any new people lurking, if you do feel you can deal with this we have 2-3 spots left and would be happy to have you. Any questions drop me a line.
Each to their own :) thanks for your time
I saw that this got bumped in the Interest Check section, so I guess it's open for new characters?

I should say, as per my sig, I'm shortly moving abroad, which might eat up my time but shouldn't result in any downtime. Worst case scenario, I swing by to say sorry I've not posted yet because I'm a busy bee.

Is there any kind of plot-thus-far or plot-for-the-future or 'characters we need' I should know about without ploughing through all of the OoC? :P


that's absolutely fine, if the move causes an issue just drop me a line to let me know... tis all I ask :)

this is open for two or 3 more characters. if there is any further interest drop us a line.

In terms of plot... I'm currently leading us through you know who's take over of the ministry once that is done, there will be a small interlude while we decide where we are going with the story.

The idea is we will create plans of what to do to rise against you know who together.

I have some ideas, so does dookie and any ideas you guys have we will discuss and implement if we all like them.

In terms of characters. I'm not going to cap what type of characters people make however considering our current set up I would prefer a character without a combat orientated job for a bit of variety as we currently have two combat specialists but if you have have an idea i won't stunt your creativity... let me know if you need any further info.

fyi.... Irish angel has decided against making a character.
It was a good post escha. I put you in a bit of a bind loosing your wand idea was to see how you reacted to it to get a bit more out of Billy

I plan to update Sunday
Not sure where Irish is at but am content to give her a bit of time

@eschatologist @thedookienut @IrishAngelQueen

okie dokey

myself and dookie are almost ready to post a short collab.
that should be up whenever it's been checked over etc

irish... glad to see you are starting a character, let me know when it's finished so I can check it over, then I will push you into the fray. As before any questions let me know :)

escha... sorry for the delay in the update... any questions about the update or struggling for inspiration let me know.
