Hogwarts Carefree OOC

Thought I would put out a general challenge each week until official game start just for anyone interested in the game to begin character building. Back date these scenes (in your own journal) to any time prior to August of the year we are entering so as not to possibly interfere with game play. You can set these up for interaction.

Challenge 1 (Apr 28): Get a new pair of shoes
Challenge 2 (May 6): Attend a sporting event
Challenge 3 (May 13): Get fitted for wizarding robes for the occassion of your choice
Challenge 4 (May 27): Have your character interact with his/her favorite family member
Challenge 5 (Jun 16): Enjoy your favorite meal.
Challenge 6 (Jul 30): Experience a mishap with an item from Weasley Wizarding Wheezes.

Here is the birthday list. Please reply with both your birthday, and your character's birthday. Birthdays will be posted each month.

Remember to fix your journal profile to show your character's information.

For new AND old members:

Here is the friends button. Type your character's journal name in, and automatically your friends list will be updated. This is easier than friending all the journals.

Thats all folks!

Just thought we needed a place to list all past challenges and allow people to give their challenge ideas. This post will be linked weekly with each challenge post to remind you to give your ideas.

Challenge 1 (May 22): Visit someone else's home.
Challenge 2 (June 4): Every returning student would have been assigned to keep a summer start chart. Update that star chart. If you a first year ponder the skies.
Challenge 3 (July 17): Choose one of your classes and create an assignment that is somehow linked to personal hygiene. This could be a homework assignment, a neat thing you can use, or a major malfunction.

Please comment below with any questions about hgwrts_carefree.
NOTE: As they are asked, questions will be posted for others to see what has previously been asked.

( I noticed on your ancestry page, you didn't use information from the JKR's family tree. Are you disregarding that and allowing people to make characters not based on that? )


( Is it possible to hold parents? )


( Am I allowed to write in siblings for my character? )


( Can parents be played as NPC's? )

Below you will find information that links Harry's generation to our current players.

Please note that we are using only the Epilogue for our reference on parantage. You are by no means bound to anything JKR put on a family tree or released in subsequent interviews.


( Who's who in our world )

Canon Disclaimer
We are well aware that JKR put out other information through her website and various other interviews.

However, not everyone agrees that things should have turned out as such. When you get into a post-war game, you aren't bound to have the pairings JKR set forth. This game allows you to choose your own OTP that isn't specified in book and create it.

Examples: If someone thinks Draco should have married Pansy, since that isn't secifically stated in the book, they can do that here. If they play Hannah Abbott in a post-war game and she and someone other than Neville fall in love, they can have that child here.

We are serious about this RP thing. We just chose to recognize the creativity of those who choose to come and play over what was later dictated by JKR.

We are not saying you can't use her pairings as long as they havn't already been disrupted. So, if you want to have Draco marry Astoria that's fine, just get to that parentage before anyone else.

The only thing a player is bound to thus is actual book canon and subsequent game canon.
