"You're listening to the Wizarding Wireless Network, and you've just been enlightened by the song 'Hanging from Your Broom' sung by Trixie and the Troubadours.
"I regret to inform you that the Department of Hazardous Magical Disease Control has released another statement concerning the 'yet-to-be-named' illness that is sweeping through our cities. The HDMC reports that one known way in which this illness is spread is through bodily fluids.
"You heard me right, dear magical folk, this illness is spread through bodily fluids. This includes kissing, sweating, possibly through sharing cups, plates, utensils, and through more adult activities.
"The HDMC stresses the need for everyone to monitor his or her condition and be wary of such activities which involve the sharing of bodily fluids. If you experience flu-like symptoms, bursts of uncontrollable magic, magical failure, chills, nausea, or fevers, please proceed at once to St. Mungo's. This illness has been known to be fatal. The HDMC reports that at least thirty-one people have already succumbed to the illness.
"While the HMDC realises that witches and wizards will not stay in the comfort of their own homes at all times, they ask that if anyone needs to venture outside of his or her home, please be aware that one needs to cast the appropriate protective charms.
"Stay tuned for sombre music from Doxie Deidre, Wilma and the Weepers, and J. Basilbeak."

Bloodlines is a post-Deathly Hallows, non-epilogue compliant Harry Potter roleplaying game set four years after the Battle of Hogwarts. The focus of the game is on building strong, dynamic characters, exciting plotlines, and an overall good story as the characters move through their daily lives in a world thrown once again into upheaval. The mods are active both in playing and plotting, and players are encouraged to become involved in existing plots and to create their own stories and characters.
We are especially looking for the following: Draco, Padma, Parvati, Lee, Slytherins, older generation
