Act two of the original three is done. It is about 100 pages and 23k words. I'll be merging the first two acts into one and the book will end up being about twice as long as originally projected.

Act 1 of 3 is done. It’s about 100 pages and 23k words and has a prelude, 8 chapters, and an interlude. I’m looking at 100k words as an approximate goal.

Bio

Thrawn: "I have read about the nightswan. Have you?"

Nightswan: "You refer to the fact that it sings only as night is falling?"

Thrawn: "Yes. You do not expect your stand to succeed, do you?"

Nightswan: "I know that it won't succeed."

Thrawn: "That does not necessarily mean the end. I can give orders for you to be taken unharmed."

Nightswan: "They will be ignored. Half the troops here are Batonn Defense and Restos is determined to get rid of me."

Thrawn: "Then come with me now!"

Nightswan: "A man must do what he must, Admiral Thrawn. Even if his stand is against the fall of eternal night."

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry




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.



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.

RULES

  • GMs run the show
  • Regarding Godmodding and Metagaming: 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.
  • No spamming.
  • Characters 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.
  • Character Sheets 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.
  • RP-Specific 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.
  • Posting 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.
  • Realism 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.
  • Rule Breaking I understand there are slip-ups. Every now and then, a rule breaking post is allowed. However, repeat offenders shouldn't happen.
  • Drama Keep it in PMs or the OOC thread if it's OOC, if it's IC it's totally fine.


Characters




@Nuriko I'm sorry to see you go. You're welcome if you have a change of mind.

@All - I started working on the OOC last night but fell asleep at my computer. I'll finish it up today.
@mskennedy615@FreeElk Both accepted.

@Nuriko Sure, just know that it would be unreasonable to assume a prof would take part in the adventures of first years - I wouldn't recommend it, but I won't tell you "No".

@All - I've got a while of free time now that I'm done with my work-project. I'll definitely have an OOC up tonight.
@KahleenCuthald@MissCapnCrunch I'll go ahead and say that both of yours are approved. So when I get around to getting the OOC up I'll go ahead and add them to the character section. I'm kinda swamped with work for the next day or two so I'll get around to it when I'm able.
@MissCapnCrunch I get it, but as the GM I'd prefer if you split it up xD It's much easier to read when they're split up like that.
@MissCapnCrunch Your CS looks good to me. Though, when you write, you should give people their own paragraphs with their own quotes. I don't know if there's a better way to explain that - someone else! Help! xD
It's not too late. We're just getting off our feet.
Alright then, I'll start working on a OCC. I'll post a CS here in a little while so you guys can get started on your characters.
@KahleenCuthald I don't mind being the main GM lol, just as long as there's a strong co-GM. I have a similar disposition towards GMing that you do. As a GM my final decision is the decision but I am absolutely open to discussion from the co-GMs and players, even post-decision.
If no one else wants to GM, I will so long as Kathleen co-GMs. But I'd rather let someone else do it lol
