Society for the Preservation of Antiquities
Welcome to the Society for the Preservation of Antiquities. Better known as the S.P.A. An organization dedicated to the discovery and recovery of priceless artifacts from around the globe. The Society was founded just recently by an anonymous billionaire with a passion for history and archaeology. This mysterious founder has turned an English manor house into an astonishing headquarters equipped with the latest in technology blended with the charm and majesty of the past. Employees of the Society are the best and brightest in the fields of Archeology, Anthropology, Occult Studies, Mythology, and History. The society is also staffed with a brilliant technical and support personnel. Staff members are given housing on the grounds of the facility to better devote their time and effort to the case work the society takes on.
The headquarters is located in beautiful Manchester, England on the grounds of an old manor house. But don't let the antique exterior fool you, this is no museum. The interior has been modified to include the latest technological marvels. To the public the Society is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to the restoration of relics, but the employees know the real deal going on behind the scenes. So if you have a passion for the relics of the lost worlds and your idea of a good time is pouring over ancient texts, or getting your hands dirty in the soil of a dig site, then come one down and submit your application.

The world has become a smaller place.
Entering a meeting of the Wizengamot to urge that the wizarding world go public, Harry Potter is assassinated in June of 2007, ten years to the day after Dumbledore died. His killer, a Muggleborn witch, tells authorities that she was not willing to accept a world in which Muggles would have been enslaved to wizards.
In the ensuing anti-Muggleborn riots, eventually called the Summer of Rage, persons unknown set off a charm bomb widely assumed to be more powerful than they’d intended. The thought that they knew how powerful it would be and set it off anyway does not bear considering.
The United Kingdom is cut off from the outside world. The islands are about to be encircled by the ghosts of soldiers – who watch, and who wait, and who sometimes kill.
No one has left Albion’s islands since the charm bomb dropped. No one has come in, either.
Albion is uncomfortably alone. CONTINUED...

"The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches...born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies...and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not...and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survive..."-The Prophecy
Our story begins as 1980 dies, as the final year of the first war against Voldemort is underway. Lord Voldemort and his followers strike fear into the hearts of all. Giants and werewolves serve the Dark Lord, doing his bidding. The Death Eaters roam free, killing Mudbloods, Muggles, and Blood Traitors as they please. Hundreds have died and disappeared. As each day passes, the resistance grows weaker. Voldemort seems to be invincible and all hope is lost.
That is until a Prophecy was made; a child with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies to those who have thrice defied him and with a power that the Dark Lord will not understand. This child would bring an end to Voldemort’s reign. And so the Dark Lord set out to kill this child before he can grow into a threat.
The problem lay in discovering the child, for two couples who had twice defied the Dark Lord were expecting children, both due in July. In order to seek the answer, Lord Voldemort kidnapped the Unspeakable assigned to the Prophecy, assuming that there he would find the truth, but the Dark Lord did not expect Marlene McKinnon to be brave enough to deceive him.
How could a child born to either the Potters or the Longbottoms be the supposed Prophecy child when their parents had only defied him twice? And the probability of them doing it a third time was inconceivable, who would be foolish enough to defy the Dark Lord that many times? She insisted that a wizard as great as he was, was foolish to waste his time on the silly words of a false seer; she believed the prophecy was false.
With that lie, the children remained momentarily safe with their parents none the wiser to the fate that potentially awaited their children. Until the night of the Autumn Equinox; Halloween, 1980, when Lily and James Potter will once again defy the Dark Lord Voldemort and make the Prophecy a reality.
Now the Dark Lord hunts for the couple and their son, his focus distracted from his original goal of ridding the world of those whom he found to be unworthy; all that matters now was his immortality. This leaves room for the resistance to grow stronger. And just as it seems that there is no hope for the Potters to come out of this alive, Alice and Frank Longbottom thrice defy Voldemort, sending them into hiding as well.
The fate of the Wizarding World lies in the hands of two small infants and a group of vigilantes working for Dumbledore. How can they stand a chance against Voldemort and all of his forces?
It’s time to find out.
