Hello!

1. Because it is probably lost to F-List's of Doom, DMLE interview funtimes are all ready to go! Details for posting are there; don't hesitate to ask if you have questions/concerns. :)

2. To those waiting for applications to be processed, I apologize for the delay--we'll be getting new characters integrated within the next couple of days. Everything in RL always seems to get hectic when there's a bunch of things to do in-game :-/

3. Reminder that there'll be an Activity Check tomorrow! Additionally, tomorrow is the close-out date for character applications outside of the community. From tomorrow onward, new characters will come from inside the community (unless players are referred by one of you guys :)).

4. In case you missed this month's calendar, there's still a few things open here for your volunteering pleasure. Random log assignments will be posted here in the OOC (later today, after some sleeeeeeep).


PLOT-WISE: With the recent developments with Ed/Prewetts/Weasleys/Remus, the gala assassination won't be proceeding atm. Saving Sirius can be scratched off the menu (lol, meaning that it's planned, not that Sirius is stuck as Super Purist Yay forever :D), and the Dark-army massacre will continue when Tyra's back from her hiatus.



I think that that's it for now--more updates in the near future :)

Hey all! Mod!Robyn here.

Regarding the Narcissa kidnapping plot. So far as I figure, Narcissa knows most DEs because of the fact that everyone around her is a DE. Plus, before her father died, he figured he was head of the Black household and inner circle and thus untouchable and used to do cocky things like invite all the DEs over for dinner and then plotting or maniacal laughter to celebrate recent successes. Which would mean Narcissa would know pretty much everyone.

So! If there's a reason that she wouldn't know your DE character was a DE, please comment here. Even if she WOULD know your character is a DE, please comment here with to show you understand that means the Order may very well be getting confirmation they are, as mentioned, a DE. Also, any feedback regarding your character getting ousted can go here too.

That means, all players with DEs, please comment!

Comments will be screened. Thank you!



***Please note! Just because the Order finds out doesn't mean there'd be any immediate or noticeable repercussions. The Order has no power over many of them. Mostly it would just be giving them a list of people to watch. The Order currently has no one high enough in the Ministry to effect any change.

( Please read the following and comment on the entry once you have, so we know that everyone is aware of what's going on. :) Thank you! )

Please run the friend button; Anna has taken on Mundungus Fletcher (mrfletcher), Brooklyn has taken on Molly Weasley (mollywobb1es), and Caleb has taken on Rabastan Lestrange (imperiofury). Also, please welcome Taylor to the game with Christian Avery (stoicism), and Madeline with Caradoc Deardorn (ohdearborn)! :)



One remove: Kaylie and Fenrir (thefenriswolf) have left the game.

Please run the friend button and welcome Cassie to the game with Lucius Malfoy (lightofbadfaith! :)

Please run the friend button; Rick has taken on Barty Crouch Jr. (crouchoverme; journal name ftw & lulz!), and Chantal has taken on Rosalind Jugson (espionne), our third and final female DE! :)

OKAY SO. Invites to the party go out tomorrow afternoon in game. Just a quick note about it since I might not be around too much tomorrow to explaiiin.

The invites are addressed to played characters only, however, any top tier families and most tier two families, aside from any known blood traitors, are invited. That means if your charries get invites, likely their parents will be there too, as will other family members who are worthy. Keep that in mind as far as NPCs go! (The only exception to this is the Carrows. Their family is boo hiss pureblood, and it'd be known to all, probably, that the twins are only there because they're Narcissa's friends. I think it's common knowledge that she lets them ride on her coattails, so while it's nothing new and shocking, it may still be a topic for discussion.)

Furthermore, because it's a celebration for him being given MoM, all department heads (Head of DMLE, for example, but not Moody because he's head of Aurors, which is a branch of that department) would be invited out of obligation, regardless of blood status. She can't get around that one.

It is an unspoken understanding that everyone can bring a plus one!

Feel free to NPC any characters you'd like. In Narcissa's mind, though this is somewhat last minute, people damn well better attend. There'll be like, at least a hundred people there, give or take. Don't be shy to use lots of random people if it helps for fun times.

NOTE TO ALL: Alie and I are both going to be quite busy earlier in the day, Pacific time, so we're posting both the article and the invites tonight. However, please bear in mind that both will, in reality, not exist until Monday in game. Thanks! Any questions, just ask!

Hey all! Robyn, mod number two here!

I've been a little distracted, and I will continue to be for the next... ten days, approximately. I work at a hotel and we're getting a $110,000.00 new system, so there's a loooot of work getting trained and ready, etc, so I'm all over the map for shifts and overtime as I am one of the most senior employees and all. Which is the long way of saying that I'm sorry, but I have an excuse!

However, I also wanted to say HELLO! to all of the new people, as well as the new characters who belong to people who are not so new! I'm excited to play with all of you, and I'd love to talk about some of the possible plots! (See ideas beneath the cut!)

Feel free to comment here or catch me on AIM at a forgetful girl.

( James Potter )

( Narcissa Black )

Yay!
