| The Premise |
| It's the year 2004, six years after the war and life has moved on in peace since the defeat of Voldemort in the battle of Hogwarts. In this time of quiet, a sudden string of disappearances shakes the wizarding world. No one knows where the disappeared people are, what's happened to them, if they're alive or dead or even if they left by their own choice or not. Aurors stand without answers; newspapers and radio speculate wildly and the Ministry is in an internal uproar of power struggle and arguments. In these times, Aurors and hit-wizards are given more authority as more and more rules and laws are set aside as the Ministry tries to persuade people they're safe from harm. What is going on? What is happening to those who disappear? Why are some groups targeted more by the Ministry's new actions than others? Does the Ministry know something they're not letting on? And does perhaps the Minister himself have something to do with what is going on? Let your character help to sort out what is real from what is false... |

What should have been a day or reckoning and triumph quickly turned to chaos and mayhem. May 2, 1998, the final battle at Hogwarts took place. Many were lost and hurt, some barely made it out with their lives. But when it finally came down to Harry vs. Voldemort, the battle took a turn for the worst. Bellatrix Lestrange sacrificed herself to keep Voldemort alive, causing enough of a distraction to give the DE time to grab Harry. The fighting continued as Voldemort and his faithful escaped, leaving the Order and the fallen in the dust and wondering what had happened to the Boy Who Lived.
