It's the new school year at Piffled and the students have a lot more to worry about than just a bunch of mandatory art electives. A student-run campaign, strengthened by the support of prefects, has changed the Hogwarts curriculum forever.

Now a mandatory sexual education course is in place for all students 16 and older.

Sex was previously a banned subject at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry under the assumption that "parents took care of that sort of thing" and the students were "too young to be having it anyway". That's old school now. This school year will go down in Hogwarts history as the year that the school expanded itself as being not only a magical institution with the artistic backbone established by the Ministry since 1998, but also as a place that truly prepares young adults for adulthood in the best way they know how.

If you thought having The Talk with your mum was awkward, try having it with the Headmaster.

***

Piffled has been open since June 2010 and is still running. Focusing on students from 5th to 7th year and recent Hogwarts graduates, it is about to enter the the 2023-2024 school year. An event oriented game, students are encouraged to participate in as many clubs, school activities, and events as possible. As a reminder, all students are required to take one fine art elective "club" to keep up with Ministry requirements as well as the mandatory weekly sexual education course.

Forgotten Gods Mod Journal [userpic]
Forgotten Gods


"People believe. It's what people do. They believe. And then they will not take responsibility for their beliefs; they conjure things, and do not trust the conjurations. People populate the darkness; with ghosts, with gods, with electrons, with tales. People imagine, and people believe: and it is that belief, that rock-solid belief, that makes things happen."

-- Neil Gaiman, American Gods



Forgotten Gods follows the deities of ancient mythologies, brought to America long ago by explorers or immigrants from their homelands and eventually abandoned or lost from memory. As their worshippers have moved on to new religions, the gods' powers have waned -- for a god, at its most pure essence, is no more than an idea, and an idea is worthless if there is nobody to believe in it. Some have passed, forgotten, from the world, while others have fallen into madness. Some have simply tried to adapt, to make a life for themselves in this place without gods, getting by on what little scraps of worship and belief they can garner. Others are more radical, intent on regaining the power that was once theirs and reviving their followings.

And then there are the New Gods. Gods of cars and computers, television and radio, cities and highways, all those things that modern Americans put their faith in. They are young, at the height of their power. These newcomers are regarded dismissively by some of the old ones, who have seen so many new deities rise and fall in their time; jealously by others, who wish to reclaim the power for their own; and by all with a deep, abiding wariness.

Inspired by the world of Neil Gaiman's American Gods, this game invites players to step into the roles of deities, old and new, to create their own modern mythology.

Hogwarts Carefree
A Next Generation Community
The Sorting has begun



As old foes come together
Only time will tell
If the wounds of the past
Have mended well
The times of tears and sorrow
Have all but gone away
As a new generation
Makes their way today

Is your home in Gryffindor
Where those with nerve shall stay
The bold and brave arrive
And always find their way
Or are you a true Hufflepuff
Fair and straight and loyal
You meet your best friends today
And share with them your toil
Perhaps you are a Slytherin
The purest of them all
But will your strive for power
Ultimately be your fall
Alas you may be Ravenclaw
Already read the books
Your wit and brains protect you
From others jealous looks

Unlike the past you will not find
Seclusion to your house
Unless you hide yourself away
Like a shy little mouse
As time goes and you grow
More similarities you’ll find
That all houses blend together
In a common frame of mind

And thus my words shall ring today
Forever captured in a tome
As you come up one by one
And find your brand new home

A new generation has come to Hogwarts filled with students who are full of life, ready to figure out who they are.
This game is for writers who want to develop an original Harry Potter character! The game allows you to develop your character through interaction not through your own character development journal. You can see exactly how your character would interact to various situations as they come to life in your brain. We want to write and have fun, while developing new characters. The application process exists not so we can pick your character apart, but so that you have the opportunity to outline who you see your character to be while giving the voting staff the chance to ask you questions that will help to develop your character.

Players are expected to be able to create their own plot ideas and any and all ideas from players are welcome. However, we do provide weekly challenges for those all too common writing blocks. We hope to see you soon!

Most wanted:
Albus Potter, Rose Weasley, Scoprius Malfoy, Victorie Weasley and Slytherins, along with original 1st years, 6th years, and 7th years
