[i][/i]Hi! Thanks for your interest.

All characters will come available at somepoint during the rp with the probable exception of Dumbledore. I think his character needs to remain with the gm.

I would prefer to build a core with the 7 above and then expand but i would stress I'm l not averse to peoople having multiple characterw 

If remaining with the 7 above proves a sticking point that prevents the rp from getting off the ground I will reevaluate.

I would add that as the above characters are not described in the books they are near enough original characters in all but a few details so you will have free reign
