[R u l e s]
Hopefully, this needn't be mentioned: Always respect your fellow members. We're all here because we have something in common: We love Harry Potter and we love to write!
[1.] You'll have a great deal of freedom in determining the details of your character's past and personality. Therefore, we hope that you'll familiarize yourself with the plot before posting your character application. While original characters are strongly encouraged, descendants of canon characters are also a possibility.
[2.] Use good judgement in assigning special abilities to your characters. This includes werewolves, vampires, parselmouths, etc.
[3.] Unless you are in agreement with a character's owner, killing that character is strictly prohibited. Of course, killing a character who belongs to you is perfectly fine. If a character dies, you should post about it in the Plot board so other members will be up-to-speed.
[6.] Though kissing and hugging is perfectly fine, be certain that you mark any thread that would be considered sexually explicit with a '(NSFW)' in the title, so that other members know what they're about to read.
[7.] Posts should always be made in 3rd person (as in not 1st person).
Bad: I walked to the window.
Good: Bryce walked to the window.
[8.] Take turns (don't double post)! Add to threads in an abc-abc fashion; there are no exceptions to this rule! If a member wants to skip their turn, they can simply post saying 'Pass' and the thread can go on. Your post is subject to deletion if you go out of turn without the consent of your thread mates.
[9.] Because there is a limited number of Hogwarts Staff positions, the number of professors and staff members you create may be restricted depending on demand for positions.
