Who: EVERYONE
Where: Various locations (see subthreads)
When: 28th Feb
What: Forcefields Day #1
Rating: Probably high (especially with certain characters)
Open: YES. There will be subthreads for each group

Inside the complex, flashing lights accompanied by a rhythmic warning alarm begins to sound. An electronic ‘voice’ can be heard briefly but the words are unintelligible and in a language that even the linguists amongst them can not decipher.

The force-fields (once characters find them) are see-through unless touched and will take on a momentarily bluish opaque appearance before reverting back. They will also be soundproof, so characters will not be able to hear from one section to another. If a character just walks into a forcefield it will feel like hitting a solid structure - it may hurt depending on how hard they impact it. Direct interference will be perceived as a threat and treated as such.

Who: EVERYONE
Where: Pub/Bar
When: 14th February Early evening onwards
What: 'Get together/Getting to know everyone' Party meets Valentine's Day
Rating: TBD
Open: YES. Multi-threads welcome.

The Pub has taken on a bit of a make-over for the day. As promised, nothing 'over-the-top' so that the Valentine's Day vibe overthrew the general party atmosphere. With the supplies they had gathered from the Complex and through the Hogsmeade, Bristol and Glasgow rifts, the organisers have managed to compile a good assortment of food and drink. The food is laid out on a few tables that had been pushed together at one end of the room while the drinks were set out across the long, curving bar that ran parallel with the back wall.

Cleo's influence was clear to see with some cobbled together Caribbean themed treats, intermingled with a selection of items supplied by Lacey and Abigail, and an array of Wizarding delicacies - Honeydukes sweets, pumpkin tarts and some cakes - courtesy of Archie - who was also apply to use a multiplying spell to increase some of the food items.

Archie and Dora had lent their wands to the subtle but pleasing decorations to give a hint of a party atmosphere but nothing that made it distinctly a Valentine's Day event so - as per Cleo's intention - not to exclude or upset anyone who either didn't have a significant other or was missing theirs.

Who: EVERYONE / ANYONE
Where: Potterverse 2006 Rift.
When: 20th January to 2nd February (feel free to make individual/separate threads to this one for the time period of the rift being open)
What: Supply runs. Exploration. Experiencing post-Battle of Hogwarts Potterverse.
Rating: TBD
Open: YES. Multi-threads welcome.

The portal that led back to Archie and Dora's world was still present within the beach cave. Ocassionally a glint of light would catch an edge and give the impression that something was there but for the most part it is difficult to spot.

Upon stepping through it, you find yourself no longer feeling soft sand beneath your feet but rock and dirt. You are still in a cave but it is darker, with no seabreeze wafting pleasantly through it. Archie explains that the cave is one of several in the mountains that are on the outskirts of the village of Hogsmeade - the only all-wizarding village in Britain. The same mountains that surround Hogwarts castle.

It isn't a long walk to the village but apparating would be quicker (of course, you can't apparate into Hogwarts). It is up to you if you wish to learn first hand how it feels to be 'forced through a very tight rubber tube' but do expect to throw up on your first side-along.

The Village of Hogsmeade is still a popular visit for Hogwarts students, so expect to see third to seventh years excitedly running around and probably a few Hogwarts staff in the Three Broomsticks or the Hog's Head enjoying a drink or five. The latter of which used to have a tunnel to the Room of Requirement within Hogwarts, however, this was destroyed during the Battle of Hogwarts eight years ago. There are plenty of shops and places to visit.

As well as living in Hogsmeade, Archie used to work as a barman at the Three Broomsticks before the Seconding Wizarding War so he has a good relationship with Madam Rosmerta and a lot of villagers. Which should help with supply gathering and assuring people that the newcomers are not dark wizards or some such.

Note about paths: Through hogsmeade they are paved and flat - sloping in places and most doorways are street level. The roads from Hogsmeade station towards Hogsmeade and Hogwarts are pretty flat or windy, country path style but bear in mind the carriages pulled by thestrals go along them to hogswarts so they probably aren't too bumpy. The mountain paths are probably not ideal for Jake's chair so he may have to brave side-along apparition.
Nexus side, sandy beach and sandy, little bit cobbly cave interior.
