| IMPORTANT INFORMATION |
NOW ACCEPTING
MALES AND FEMALES, STUDENTS AND ADULTS OF ANY KIND...
but you should probably check out the full list of what we're accepting before you do anything crazy.
|
The ministry has been taken over by pureblood radicals and the entire world has been turned on it's head- for over eight years the Age of Wizardry has oppressed muggles and halfbreeds. Hogwarts has been infiltrated with government officials; half the professors straight from the Dark Army itself. The Order of the Phoenix is trying to reverse the seemingly permanent damage on the entire world, but is seen as a terrorist group among the population- how hard will it be to do the right thing in a world where 'right' and 'wrong' have no meaning?

character of the moment.
PANDORA LEIGH ROSIER ?
BIO -- PLOT
Pandora's fairly new to TTS, but her character and roleplaying style completely caught our attention. Britt dared to make one of the only DA characters on the board, who really turned out well. She's active and friendly, and has even given more material to the site. She makes being a slytherin look oh so tempting, again. Be sure to check out her owl post with Fred Weasley or her romp in the courtyard with Sebastian Crabbe. Good job!
duo of the moment.
JOANIE ALANNA WOOD & ZACHARY LUCAS WOOD ?
BIO -- PLOT ---- BIO -- PLOT
These two are awesome, really. Their sibling relationship is so realistic and hilarious. They've only had a few threads together, but each one seems to be better and funnier than the last. They have the most developed relationship on the board, to be sure. I reccomend their owl post. Funny stuff! Congrats!
member of the moment.
LEXY ?
JOANIE ALANA WOOD
Dude... Lexy's awesome. She was promoted to staff just recently, but she's been on the forum for so long and kept with it. Her character is fun to roleplay with, she's so nice to members and guests and all. Her character is really well rounded and makes for a good roleplaying partner whether it be in Diagon Alley or the Quidditch showers. Good job!
admin's choice.
ZACHARY LUCAS WOOD ?
BIO -- PLOT
Kat has been on TTS since before the opening, and stuck with it through... pretty much every single day. She plays Zack extremely well- and since my character's sort of head-over-heels in love with the kid, I'm sure that makes me a little biased, but seriously, just post with Zack, and you'll understand why I love this kid so much.

CHARACTER ADS ?
Because somewhere in the timeline of history, roleplayers got lazy and for the most part, ditched the plot pages. Ask for a friend, enemy, what have you, here. If you're still into plot pages, there's a subforum for that, too! I've got you covered.

OWL POST ?
No, there's no way around the magical fields that interfere with your precious cell phones. Put that bird of prey of yours to good use, your mother paid good money for it. Or better yet, just pass a friend a note in class, or etch something into the bathroom stalls.

JOURNALS ?
I'm sure you want to jot down a few memories from your time at hogwarts. Go at it! Please remember, though- these are private journals. Everything a character has written in these threads is not known to other characters unless they show it to them in the roleplay- You can read them as much as you like, but your character does know know the information.

GREAT HALL ?
Where everyone eats- it's a huge place. The ceiling forecasts the weather for the day, and underneath it all lays the four tables of the Hogwarts houses, and the one table sitting horizontal for the professors- behind the professor's table is the four hourglasses, holding the house points.

Now restored to it's full glory after the previous war, it recently has been the central hub for Dark Army propgaganda- everything is decorated in a dark green, with flashing posters sporting their slogans.

HOGSMEADE VILLAGE ?
The only all-Wizarding village in Britain. Hogsmeade is located at the northwest of Hogwarts Castle. Students may sometimes come on weekend trips, but only third year students and above with guardian permission are allowed to visit. The Village, like Diagon Alley, is got it's far share of posters with the Dark Army's slogan.

THE MINISTRY OF MAGIC ?
Once an impressive underground headquarters for the magical government, it's been magically risen so the majority of it sit above the ground- everything but the department of mysteries. It's a huge white building with long green drapery flowing from the marble columns.

ORDER OF THE PHEONIX HEADQUARTERS ?
The Order's headquarters is in a place unknown to even those who travel there- deep in a thick forest, one can only get to and from the place by portkey. While it looks small above ground, the underground portion is large and roomy.

AZKABAN ?
The infamous wizarding prison has long since gone through it's changes over the years. It's now mostly a hold for muggles, mudbloods and anyone who defies the government in any way. The dementors have been reinstated, and the place is as cold and dreary as it ever was.

THE MUGGLE WORLD ?
Not everyone has access to the wizarding world- and even if you do, sticking to just those places would mean that you miss a lot of action. Even with the wizarding world exposed to the muggles, their worlds are still very much segregated. Most muggles will treat wizards with apprehension, but it's to be expected.

DIALOGUE AND SHORT RP ?
Some scenes just aren't as long as you need them to be, I know. That's why this board comes in handy- this is the only play where you are allowed to post threads full of one-liners or any other form of short post. It's doesn't quite qualify as being active, but it's great for a fight scene or something.

get your soliloquy on! this is where you can post threads about your character's past- they're more to get a better idea of your character, where they're from, how they got to be the lovely creatures they are, than for someone to reply to them. it's sort of fun to do them nonetheless, and very interesting.
