In September 1979, at the height of the first war, the Death Eaters assassinated the Minister of Magic and took over the wizarding government. Two years of terrorism followed, until that fateful Halloween night in 1981, when the Dark Lord vanished, Lily and James Potter died, and Harry Potter was left a scarred orphan.
The war was over, but the consequences of those two years the Death Eaters spent in power were just beginning. After claiming to have been Imperiused, most of the Death Eaters retained their positions of power within the Ministry. They headed nearly every Department, from Magical Law Enforcement to International Cooperation to the Department of Mysteries. There was no escaping the arm of the Dark Lord, even after he was declared dead.
The Death Eaters tried to retain the laws that had been passed during those two years, and the Order of the Phoenix tried to use its influence to push progression and equality. Neither side overtook the other, and even though the Wizarding World thought the war was over, the real battle raged as they fought for control of the government.
But in June 1998, Voldemort returned to the world stage. His first act was to find the prophecy that had eluded him for so long, and he attacked the Ministry of Magic. The raid was a success, and in the chaos, Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge was killed.
Ex-Auror Caradoc Dearborn was declared Minister of Magic. Finally the Order had what it wanted; power over the Ministry. But with the Death Eaters still running every Department, there is little they can do to help stop the war.
It has been seventeen years since the last war, but the battle for England has only just begun.

On October 31st, 1999, a group of eco-terrorists released a biological weapon at every major airport in the world. 48 hours later, the true nature of the weapon became clear. The infected became violent, infecting others through bites and scratches. 50 hours after the first contagion was released, governments across the globe initiated states of emergency. Sites were designated as shelters with troops and Aurors sent to protect those sites at all costs.
Radio broadcasts gave the locations of the Ministry of Magic and Buckingham Palace as 'safe spots' but they were really processing centers screening out the infected and sending the uninfected via the Floo network to hidden shelters. Those lucky enough to find shelter must now wait it out – the 28 long days for the infected to starve to death or kill each other in their madness. Then they will have the unenviable task of rebuilding society and the world.
Plus 28 Days is a Post DH HP-based RPG began on October 31st, 2009. We have a small, friendly, active core cast. Currently, our "most wanted" include Ron Weasley, George Weasley, Blaise Zabini, Hannah Abbott, Lavender Brown, Dean Thomas and Bill Weasley. |

1978 had been a brutal and bloody year. The Dark Mark was a regular appearance, families were torn apart and storefronts were closing down because witches stopped shopping for fear of their lives. Each issue of the Daily Prophet seemed to be filled with portents of misfortune. Another death. Another Dark Mark lighting up the sky. Another missing persons poster on the lampposts of Diagon. The signs of the war, so easily overlooked previously, were becoming impossible to ignore. The wizarding community became painfully aware that the next body in the morgue could be their own.
It grew difficult to stay neutral. Some managed to remain unaffiliated, while others split on either side of a stark division. The Death Eaters were on a quest for the domination of purity, led by a power-hungry Dark Lord. The Order of the Phoenix was a guerrilla group to the Death Eater's organized ranks, taking them out in secret, attempting to neutralize the threats in the name of equality.
But what happens when the threat simply vanishes? Without Voldemort to lead the Death Eaters, will things be better or worse? Will the attacks stop or become more frequent, more deadly? And what of the Order? Sensing the fading threat, will they dissolve into obscurity, splintering off to live their own lives, or will they remain a unit, ready to defend against the return of darkness?
1978 is nearing a close. What will the next year hold?
"Just picture coming home and finding the Dark Mark hovering over your house, and knowing what you’re about to find inside... Everyone’s worst fear...the very worst."
—Arthur Weasley

May 1, 1998; a day that changed the Wizarding World forever. Muggles, with the help of several inside sources, have infiltrated the Wizarding World. Large Magical cities across the globe were attacked in the wee morning hours, and many were captured or killed, while others somehow managed to escape and go into hiding.
It is now two years later, December of 2000, and the wizarding world as it once was is no more. But there are those out there, renegade wizards who escaped the initial attacks, who are determined to reclaim what is rightfully theirs and save their race from extinction. |
