[center][h1]Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry[/h1][/center] [center][img]https://static2.hypable.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Hogwarts-lake.png[/img][/center] Whatever your background may be, all of you received a letter in the mail. This may have come as a surprise of you and/or your family hadn't been introduced to the Magical World. Otherwise your family should be extremely proud; their child was accepted to the best school for Witchcraft and Wizardry in the World. [hider=Letter] [i]Dear Sir or Madam, We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Please find enclosed a list of all necessary books and equipment. You may also bring if you desire an owl, a cat, or a toad. Term begins 4 September. We expect your owl by no later than 28 July. Yours Sincerely, Miverna McGonagall Deputy Headmistress[/i][/hider] [color=skyblue]The idea here is that the RP will follow a group a students through their years in Hogwarts; Fighting off monsters, dealing with class and school-related drama and other such things. If you've always wanted to live in the Harry Potter universe but were confined by reality, then you've come to the right place. Just make sure you follow the rules and fill out the information in the Character Sheet. Sorting will be done IC based on the personality section. As a side note, it's important to say that you should follow whatever personality you set for your character.[/color] [h3][color=darkred]RULES[/color][/h3] [list] [*][b]GMs run the show[/b] [*][b]Regarding Godmodding and Metagaming:[/b] Godmodding will only happen in two instances: 1.) Things need to be moved along; 2.) With a player's permission. Do not, under any circumstances, take control of a person's character (this includes NPCs/Monsters) without written consent from the controller. As for metagaming, not a chance. When/if it comes to fighting each other, it can get boring to "leave it open" so if there is a clear winner then you can win. Killing is with GM approval. [*] [b]No spamming.[/b] [*][b]Characters[/b] Make them realistic. Everyone has flaws. I want well thought out characters, please. Flaws make for interesting roleplays and allows every character to have a moment to shine as well as fall. [*][b]Character Sheets[/b] The Character Sheet is placed here as well as within the Character Tab. I want to see detail within your character sheets. As far as pictures are concerned; if it fits your character, use it. [*][b]RP-Specific[/b] Anything goes in this RP. Gore, violence, swearing, etc. But moderation is key to making it have weight so keep that in mind. Please only post pictures with a post if it's really necessary. [*][b]Posting[/b] This is a High Casual RP so I'd like to see development in each post, unless you've run out of what you can do (i.e. a conversation). If you and another character plan on having a long interaction, please work out a collab post in OOC or PM. [*] [b]Realism[/b] This is a realistic RP, besides....the magic, monsters, etc, so keep it realistic. If your character is injured, they can't heal in thirty minutes (unless GM says otherwise). Nor can they fight in a battle for five hours without collapsing. Keep things realistic, it honestly makes it that much more interesting. [*] [b]Rule Breaking[/b] I understand there are slip-ups. Every now and then, a rule breaking post is allowed. However, repeat offenders shouldn't happen. [*] [b]Drama[/b] Keep it in PMs or the OOC thread if it's OOC, if it's IC it's totally fine.
