idlehands & idleminds & idlepens & idlethoughts
Five years after the fall of Voldemort. Lives are rebuilt, families reforged, loves rekindled. Wizardfolk are finally learning to live in a world without fear. But not everyone is pleased with the new sunshine-and-smiles lifestyle of the post-war Wizarding world.
Despite a successful career and a promising future, Romilda Vane is bored. Life has never been more dull since the confusion and distress of the War have died down. And everyone is so. Bloody. Cheerful.
But Romilda has a plan – an experiment of her own concoction, and for her own amusement. A way to test out some of her most creative potions – brews that would never be approved for testing by the Ministry. But what the Ministry doesn't know can't hurt them, right?
Under the brilliant ruse of forming an honor society for the heroes of the war, Romilda has invited what she hopes will be the first of many "test groups" to a very special banquet. Little do they know of the special ingredient that has been added to their meal.
And the results? Well, not even Romilda really knows…
About the Game
With the series finished, and the future of Harry Potter and his friends all tied up with a neat little bow, what's left for those of us who still see infinite possibilities left in the world JK Rowling created?
Idle Hands is a game where players can come to explore all the closed and unexplored options of Rowling's world – for those unsatisfied with the happy, cheddar-cheese ending given to us in the Deathly Hallows epilogue. For those who still hold a secret hope of seeing Harry and Draco together. For those who believe Neville and Ginny's date to the Yule Ball meant just a little more to Neville than he let on, if only he'd had the nerve to say something. For those who just want to see their favorite minor characters given the chance to shine.
In the world of Idle Hands, anything is possible. Through the use of Romilda and her personality-altering potions, players are given the chance to take their characters outside the realm of Rowling's small box, to explore even the most unlikely relationships and situations – even if only for a little while. Potions that remove character inhibitions, let them fall in love at first sight, and open many more realms of possibility will be unleashed, affecting characters for up to a week, and leaving repercussions that can last as long as the players are willing to explore them.
Even though we all know how it's going to end, doesn't mean we can have fun in the interim.
Available Characters include: Katie Bell, Hermione Granger, Angelina Johnson, Alicia Spinnet, George Weasley, Seamus Finnigan, Neville Longbottom, Parvati Patil, Ron Weasley, Hannah Abbott, Susan Bones, Justin Finch-Fletchley, Ernie Macmillan, Dean Thomas, Zacharias Smith, Terry Boot, Mandy Brocklehurst, Cho Chang, Michael Corner, Padma Patil, Lisa Turpin, Millicent Bulstrode, Marcus Flint, Gregory Goyle, Daphne Greengrass, Theodore Nott, Blaise Zabini, Gabrielle Delacour, Viktor Krum, Bill Weasley, Charlie Weasley and many more!
