premise
After the end of the war a peculiar calm settled over the Wizarding World and they were left to pick up the pieces and try to return to normality. Those who had missed school were given a chance to go again while everyone else re-built their world. Those connected to Voldemort were investigated and placed on trial before being sentenced to time in Azkaban. For two years there was calm, peace. And then, one day, a brand new building showed up overnight and along with it people from the past and future. Suddenly, there were multiple copies of the same people around, people who were in the present dead, come forward from a time before their deaths. No one has an explanation for how this has occurred, but it’s brough other strange incidents with it, as well.
basic timeline
Aetates is a multi-generation Harry Potter game set in the year 2000. The game is canon compliant up through the start of the game, but from time to time, we will be inviting characters to be brought in from various AU canon points. Characters from any era are welcome - past, present or future. Things will be kept lively with random challenges - genderswaps, crazy magical goings on and someone potentially trying to get the war re-kindled.
On the [date] February a relatively large building appeared out of nowhere, nestling itself in the crux of Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley. Where it came from exactly nobody could say, it was a mystery how a fully built apartment could spring out of nowhere. On the outside it fit in with the other buildings; slightly old in style, orante and brightly coloured, finding a home where there hadn't been one previously. Across the door was emblazed The Phoenix Rising. Inside it is clean, a friendly mix of modern and traditional and much, much, much bigger than anyone expected. It is a maze. Much like Hogwarts rooms and floors seemingly popping up at random when they are required. Each apartment has it own flavour and seems to be highly influenced by the occupant.
arrival
On arriving to 2000 characters from the past/future and AU worlds wake up in an apartment in the Rising Phoenix which has been randomly selected by someone known as The Master. Beside them is a journal, a communication device which has become popular in the last few months. Tucked into the journal is the following note;
Welcome, welcome, welcome to your new home my little pet. You might be wondering what you're doing here... but that would spoil the game and you wouldn't want to do that so soon would you? Now have fun. Don't do anything I wouldn't! ~ The Master
the eras
There can be up to three versions of the same character at game start assuming that they are ALIVE at each point in time. At game start the only time someone who dies can be played is at a canon point before their death. The three versions of the characters can be played by the same player or three different or however players wish to do it.
pbs/journals/characters
If you are picking up an already played character you must speak to the original player and honour their history and canon they've put in place. Each version must be at least 10 years apart in age. Currently there is no set character limit and it is likely there never, ever will be. We're here for the fun!
join!
Not every character is expected to have a character journal; it is entirely up to each player whether every character has a journal, if you have a catch-all infinitus journal or a Aetates journal. Pick whatever is best for you. Original characters are allowed! We've also decided to make it so there was not only 5 of each sex to each house each year however if any year gets "too full" we will place a ban on that year. Please consider filling the years of Ginny or the older years. There is no true application here merely a form to fill out and comment with here. We do however ask that you have the basics in your journal somewhere (house/years/name/blood and history or a brief blurb).

All in character posts go in aetates this includes both 3rd person story book posts and first person journal entries. Everything IC (owls, letters, presents, random drunk conversations etc.) will be in that community. You will need to join infinitus via praetor to play in Aetates however you don't have to play in any other game than Aetates if you don't want to. |
