A new Order rose up, lead by non other than Harry Potter's own son, Albus Serverus Potter who believed that the fight his father fought was to be conserved – Forever! The order was strong and the people themselves supported it – For a time at least. The year is 2038 -- and the wizard world is at the brink of war.

, General


,.Regarding the tense and person
All posts are to be written in the third person. eg. “Dylan opened his book. He felt a shiver of surprise when he saw that it belonged to his great aunt's fish.”
-- not “I opened my book. I felt a shiver of surprise when I saw that it belonged to my great aunt's fish.” Please please please... NO!
Your posts have to be in past tense. I see that a lot of people say. Dylan opens his book. He feels...
-- Again, big no. Must be “Dylan opened his book. He felt a ...”

,.How to display your name
Please make sure your display names are that of your characters. I really don't wanna see fluffytreehobbit676 running around. Also, one account per character.

,.Oh, for the sake of language
Grammar grammar grammar people! As well as spell check as he's your biggest buddy that keeps away grumpy admins.

,.We all think so much of ourselves
I promise all of you that you that the human mind is too complex to simply “walk into a room” without a thought. So my dear sweet children: I need you to describe like there's no tomorrow!!

,.You can't be a puppet controller
No god moding! I cannot stress this enough... NONE of it... zip, zero, capeesh? It's really one of the only things that is really going to annoy me.

,.Reality does exist
If we gonna go mature, please indicate [R]. Not every thread though. No unrealistic orgies and stuff with people screaming obscene remarks. No pornographic links. Keep it realistic and to a minimum. Please don't abuse the oppurtunity. Also, smoking, drugs and violence are a part of life. If your character swears, that's ok, so long as it remains in thought and spoken word. Note, pregnacy and and death needs to go through the admins. We do not want people's characters dying when they want them to live.

,.Seperate this world from that
Please remember, people are not their characters, so don't attack them personally for what their character did to you. Also, do not sort out your personally arguments on this site. I will delete all posts like that. Not everyone wants to know.

,.Give credit where it is due
All posts, graphic is copyright to the person who made them. You can be sued if you take anything off this site without permission. not really. Don't think you can. But they can set crazy rabid squirrals on you.


,.Keep what is important close
Respect! Everyone has feelings and personal attacks and affair are not to be dealt with on this forum, as I have mentioned before.

,.Order of posting
Right, i know sometimes you really really want to post next but please wait your turn.

This is how we post:

Person 1
Person 2
Person3
Person 1
Person 2
Person 3
Person 4 enters
Person1
Person 2
Person 3
Person 4
Person 1
etc etc etc. Get it got it good?


, in character


,.How many words to describe thee
We are a beginner to advanced site, but it would be nice of you kept to a min word limit of 200 words. If you reply to someone you has poured all their effort into their post, please do the same for them.

,.We all human in this world
Your character can’t always be the hero! They may have one moment but realistically don’t think that each bad thread your character is save the whole world with the twitch of an eyebrow.

NO MARY SUES! No! Every character needs flaws. If they don't, they won't be accepted. The end of it. Same with oh my life is terrible-- the world is against-- all the time! It's tedious and difficult to rp with. And you're character has no substance. Drama queens and kings too... No “my pet sneezed, so he's going to die and the world is going to end-- So hence, I shall jump off the nearest bridge unless someone kisses me and becomes bound to me forever in holy matrimony...”

,.Realism is closer to the truth
Be realistic please. You also need to understand that your character is limited just like you and me in real life. Unless you mention it in the app or apply for a special ability, it doesn't exist.

,.Oh sweet love
Ok, so another thing to consider: LOVE DOES NOT SPARK OFF THE MINUTE YOU ENCOUNTER THE OPPOSITE SEX! Love takes time to develop, so no lovers in one week thing.
[Yes, I'm aware of love at first sight, but that's not gonna happen with every freaking couple]
Lust on the other hand? Go ahead.

,.Spend a little time with me
Ok, so now we got the next thing.. Please read through the whole post you are replying to. Even if it's really long. In case you miss a very important detail and then-- the thread is useless.

,.So you think you're special
ANY special abilities are to be applied for. We are opened minded so don't worry. We need to keeps tabs on it though so we don't end up with an invincible demi god called ((fluffy hobbit)) Hint hint... Key word

And above all, enjoy yourselves!
