The Wizarding World is more peaceful than it ever has been since before Lord Voldemort's first rise to power. It has had twenty-five years to heal and rebuild. Instead of preparing for a war that has been looming over their heads for years or hunting for pieces of a damaged soul, the students of Hogwarts have the chance to do what many of their parents missed out on -- being normal.
They're loving and hating every minute of their adolescence like a proper bonds that will last a lifetime. They're busy doing important things like studying for N.E.W.T.s, having parties, playing Quidditch, visiting Hogmeade, using Nosebleed Nougats to get out of class, attending school events, participating in clubs, smuggling in Wild-Fire Whiz-Bangs, and sneaking around the castle in the dead of night.
The year is 2023, Albus Potter's seventh and final year, and things are finally normal... well, as normal as they can be at Hogwarts. Because really, how normal are the enchanted Chocolate Frogs that end up in the girl's dormitory in the middle of the night or the missing bones in Rose's hand from a dueling gone wrong?
Game officially opened September 15th!
Needed: Sixth years, prefects, Quidditch players! |

As the 2005 New Year approaches, the Wizarding World prepares to celebrate seven years of peace. But despite the pretty words put out by the Ministry and the songs and the memorials commemorating the Battle of Hogwarts and the end of Voldemort, all has not been peaceful. Surviving Death Eaters have plagued the country, a reorganization of the Ministry has left everyone feeling unsure of how to proceed, and a bull economy and international conflicts have left everyone feeling a little burned. The muggle government is getting harder and harder to keep separated from the Ministry of Magic, surveillance technology is catching up to wizards left and right, and the wisdom of the Statute of Secrecy is being called to question for the first time in centuries.
To make matters worse, there's a new player on the field. Former and suspected Death Eaters are showing up brutally murdered and no one knows why. Suspicions are running high as people remember the terror of Voldemort's war, but at least innocent people aren't being targeted. Yet.
Still, in the midst of all this, there are people just trying to get by. To live and laugh and love with their friends and family. No period can be perfectly peaceful and one must make the most of what quiet time they have. Especially those who realize their 'quiet time' is rapidly coming to an end.
The 8th Floor is a DH-compliant, post-war game that aims to take a look at the interplay between the magical and muggle worlds and the myriad of problems something like the Statute of Secrecy could cause. We plan to meld plot, politics, and social aspects into an intense gaming experience.
