Recruitment Harry Potter: Wizards and Magic

"The year is 1996. The Dark Lord Voldemort has been seemingly resurrected. Actions and reactions are met with dread and concern. The MACUSA President Lauren Applejack's eyes turn to Great Britian as word comes of the Dark Lords return. In the social sphere, More and more social unrest arises within the Wizarding world as Magical leaders become increasingly frustrated with the International Confederation of Wizards's apathy in regard to dark threats such as the death eaters, as well as the insistence of staying hidden from the rest of the recent explorers have discovered a pool in the Dark Forest that may in fact be a gateway to parallel worlds and timelines. The clouds speak of Omens of Uncertainty the only thing that is certain is that for good or for ill the times are changing, and the wizarding world will never be the same

Meanwhile Harry Potter starts his sixth year as other students continue their own journeys. The question is, what part in this story will you play? What decisions will you make? Will you follow the same path as what occurred in the stories that we know, or will your choices change the course of history as we know it?"


Basically this is a harry potter RPG that I made because I had a harry potter Itch I wanted to scratch. While it takes place in the beginning of Harry Potter and the half-blood prince, it is an RP board meaning nothing is sacred. Harry can die, Voldemort can be killed much earlier than he did in the canon story, someone can find an alternate way to destroy the horcruxes, Dumbledore can survive, people can comeback from the dead, crossover events can happen, any number of things is possible. It's mainly a question of what players want to do.

it's on a Proboard. a link can be found here. Just for fun and potentially keep interest in it going, I figured I'd post some of the best thread lines on here. I might also have a thread for NSFW storylines if any of those end up being interesting enough to put up. If you like Harry Potter, I highly encourage you to join.

Rappaport's Law is temporally suspended so that Aurors can aid in saving both muggle and magical victims of the holocaust. All together over 3,000,000 people are saved from this action.
