Founders Legacy – an AU 4th Year RPG on Insanejournal
* What if Gideon Prewett had survived the attack that killed him and his brother? - how would it affect his sister and her family? - how would he be, if he were still alive, but had lost his brother? * What if Arthur and Molly had divorced before Ron was ever conceived? - how would Harry deal if one half of his support system--Ron--had never existed? - how different would the Weasley boys be if Arthur remarried--Blaise Zabini's mother? - how different would Hogsmeade be if Gideon and Molly ran the Three Broomsticks instead of Rosmerta? - how would the twins be different if they grew up with different names, not even meeting until the Hogwarts Express, never knowing the other existed before that moment, and were subsequently sorted into different houses? * What if Bellatrix had had a child? - how would she be different if she escaped being sent to Azkaban--because she had to raise her son? - how would she respond if Andromeda had divorced her Muggleborn husband, and was trying to reconnect with her sisters? * What if Harry's circle had included Slytherins?
Welcome to a world where everything might seem familiar, but everything has changed. Harry’s still in a fight for his life, but without the strong support of the Weasleys, where does that leave him? Instead of one set of Weasleys, there are two: the brothers raised by Arthur and his new wife, Cordelia, and the ones raised by Molly and her brother and renamed Prewett.
The twins have since been reunited, but the animosity between Molly and Arthur is strong. Add in plotting Malfoys and Lestranges, an orphaned boy who only longs for a home and people who love him, and the Tri-Wizard tournament, and you have our world.
Harry must find his way with a different set of friends. Is it possible? Will he want to? Will he even survive his fourth year?
We’re particularly looking for: Hermione, Neville, Molly, Percy, Moody (/Crouch), Fleur, Viktor, Bellatrix, Lucius, and Arthur Also – any Teachers, students in Harry’s year, or Weasleys (and Prewetts – check with mods before applying for any Weasleys). Tons of characters are free!
Official start date is January 1, 2008, but the Past Community is open for roleplaying now!
