Six degrees of separation (also referred to as the "Human Web") refers to the idea that everyone is on average approximately six steps away from any other person on Earth, so that a chain of, "a friend of a friend" statements can be made, on average, to connect any two people in six steps or fewer.
In January 2006, Wizarding Great Britain is finally ready to move on from the events of May 1998. Hogwarts reconstruction has been completed, old shops have been restored and reopened and new shops have popped up in Wizarding towns. The community and commerce is thriving once more.
However, old prejudices die hard. School rivalries still ring true, Pureblood Supremecists still hold their views with utmost importance and Muggleborn Rights Activists still fight for complete equality. Not everyone gets along and this is no perfect world. Where will you fit in? Will you be the Boy Hero having drinks at a local pub with the Slytherin Prince? Will you be the Bubbling Badger secretly pining after the Raven Seeker? Will you be the Brawny Sidekick struggling to shed pretense in order to strike up a friendship with the Bookish Brunette?
Wherever you fit in, just remember that we are all connected. Where rivalries, prejudices, romances and friendships run, our steps from one person to the next run closer and deeper.
Welcome to Six Degrees! |

It's the future!
And especially in the wizarding world, things are changing faster than ever. First it was global warming and rising sea levels, then it was magical technology and the rise of the maskers -- muggles who know about the wizarding world. Before anyone knew what was happening, secrecy was flopping toward oblivion like a fish snatched by an sharp-clawed eagle.
And it's all coming to a head here, on the Island of Apples. Created using a mix of magic and nanotechnology, it's the first of hundreds, even thousands of unfloodable artificial islands built to replace drowning coastal regions.
And the real estate is going fast. The island already contains towns, a resort, a container port, and a population that's growing and diversifying in all directions. Wizards and maskers and even muggles living and working side by side -- how long can that last?
We're still waiting to find out.
In the Silver Sea is a canon-compliant Harry Potter RPG set in the year 2035 (next-gen grown up). We welcome characters of all ages, nationalities, and magical statuses.
