[center][b][u]Finite Incantatem
An AU Harry Potter RP[/b][/u][/center]

The date is December 1st, 1999. Exactly a year since our last hope, Albus Dumbledore, was murdered and what remained of the Order of the Phoenix torn to shreds. We can no longer stand in the protective shadow of a great hero, openly speaking out against the Dark Lord's new, unopposed dictatorship.

Voldemort's tyranny has not lessened over the past twelve months – no, it has only grown more daring. 'Blood traitors' previously scorned but left untouched have been disappearing. Previously integrated Muggleborns vanishing and leaving only dust behind them. Something is going on in the Dark Lord's home, Castle Hogwarts, and we must find out [i]what[/i] before it is too late.

We are the The Ashes – a rebel group operating under an ambiguous shade of grey on the moral spectrum – and we are the last hope for the survival of the magical world.

Hello! I've seen a lot of Hogwarts slice of life RPs around and thought I could maybe come up with something a bit different and more action-oriented – that's how this plotbunny was born. Basically in this alternate universe, Harry Potter was never born/died in the initial attack on Godric's Hollow so Voldemort's rise to power was much simpler.

It's really going to be OC centric with an adult cast of characters going out on various missions – sabotage, theft, rescue and so on and so forth – while including all the neat magic that the Harry Potter universe has to offer. I'm also playing with the idea of custom Horcruxes (ones not in the canon universe).

Well, this is as far as I got with the planning, but if there's enough people wanting in, I'll work on an OOC soon complete with timeline and banners and all that jazz! So would any of y'all be interested in it?

EDIT - Flippin' ignore the fact I can't spell [b]incantatem[/b] to save my life.

EDIT 2 - Another possible option would be having it set in roughly 2010 (or present day), with Harry Potter having had existed but died during DH.
