There was no warning, no hint of what was going to happen the moment the clock struck midnight. All at once, everyone appeared standing, sitting or laying on the cobbles of Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley. All those that lived there unconnected to the spell was removed in the same instant. If you try to apparate away you will simply appear a few feet away within the alleys. If you look out of the door of The Leaky Cauldron you can see Charing Cross road, but attemping to walk through will result in you walking into a different random shop in Diagon or Knockturn Alley. Every other exit has apparently been blocked with an impassable, unbreakable brick wall. If you attempt to fly you will become disorientated and find yourself turned around heading back into the Alley. There is no way out...  » Please use this thread for all initial reaction RP (unless you feel you need your own, please tell the mods)! » Every character in the game has been transported to Diagon and Knockturn Alley in the middle of the night! They should all be there. » Your character can duck between threads if they're running around looking for answers. » This is a great time to use the Grab-Me Policy if you want to bump into someone randomly in the street. Please put a small OOC note in the title of your comment if grabbing someone! » There is strictly no communication with the outside world! » If you weren't wearing or holding something, it didn't come with you. |
Discord has spread through the masses, and the time has come for the people to express their disapproval of the Ministry's most recent actions! Of course, a crowd of angry witches and wizards cannot be allowed to storm the Ministry and so all Floo entrances have been redirected to Diagon Alley. A small Auror presence has been put in place in order to keep the peace.  Disgruntled, the protesters take to the street to chant and demand the positive change they want to see. The cobbles are packed with people, some holding signs, others shooting sparks into the air or flying banners above the heads of those marching. The actual subject of the protest seems a little confused. Some are there specifically against the release of Lucius Malfoy, others against the Wizengamot and more against the DMLE. All that matters is that you get a chance to be heard. |
