All the rules of the site will be posted here. This is where you should look first when you join.

Need to talk to a staff member? Or perhaps you just want to drop them a friendly "hello"? Post here with all your wants and worries.

Do NOT pester the staff about accepting biographies.

If you want to put an ad up on our site, but don't want to affiliate with us, then post it here.

Guests may post in this board.

Have a question about the site, or you don't know how to achieve a certain goal IC? Or perhaps you have a general question to ask about Proboards itself? Make a thread here and your question is sure to be answered.

All character biographies must be posted here.

Remember that you may not use your character until it's been accepted by the staff.

All accepted characters will be listed here, according to category (ie Muggles, Hufflepuff House).

If your character is not listed here, please inform a staff member.

It's not required, but we would like you to create a character gallery if you create more than two characters. Simply post some information about one character on their account. Then post again - on your second character's account - with some info on them, and do this again for all of your characters.

Have a character you don't want, or do you want to adopt a character? This is the place to make all your dreams come true!

Newbies can also adopt from here.

Do you need your character to get a letter from Hogwarts? Do you need a roleplaying buddy for a thread that no one's replying to? Or do you need some... relations... for your single character? Here's the place to do it quickly, if you don't want to plan it out IC.

Accumulated Galleons can be spent on in-game items here. If you wish to purchase something, please make a thread stating what you'd like to buy, then a staff member will subtract the appropriate number of Galleons for you, and award you with the item of choice.

Main plots, mini-plots, big plots, small plots, whatever kind of plot it is - post it here. You can recruit other members to play a part in it. Any plot involving over 8 characters is categorized as a group plot and must be accepted by staff.

In a secluded section of the dungeon lies the potions room. It is an average-sized room. You can usually find something bubbling, boiling, or simmering in the potions classroom, whether it be a hot cauldron of Amortentia or a flask filled to the brim with Wolfsbane Potion.

The dungeons are pretty desolate. There are no lavatories, a winding labyrinth of corridors, around three unused classrooms, and of course, no balconies. Please role-play these places [ and others like them ] in this board.

Located off of the spiral staircase, the Gryffindor common room is hidden behind a large painting of a large lady. The Fat Lady, as they call her, will swing open to admit you into the common room if you give her the correct password. The red-and-gold-clad common room is full of big armchairs and a warm fireplace. This common room seems to have a warm, welcoming feel to it.

Ravenclaw tower is light and airy with a somewhat refreshing aura to it. The Ravenclaw colors are draped around the room generously. If you look up, you'll notice a large glass dome that serves as the ceiling for the intelligent Ravenclaws.

A spacious entrance hall marks the beginning of Hogwarts. Great pillars hold up the giant stone walls and create a wonderful and large space for students to be greeted by the wonderful school of Hogwarts.

The courtyard is a large square with an elegantly tiled floor and is open to the sky for students to come and relax outside without really being outside.

Herbology lessons are held in the many greenhouses of Hogwarts. Beware though, when you're in here, anything can happen!

On those days when the weather doesn't permit Care of Magical Creatures, the students hold class in a classroom that isn't used very much. It's like any other classroom, really. Four walls, a ceiling, a door - oh, and a huge window covering pretty much the whole wall. There are posters covering the classroom - moving ones of course - displaying the actions of many magical creatures.

The first floor is one of the largest. There are two lavatories, three unused classrooms, no balconies, and many corridors. Please role-play these places [ and others like them ] in this board.

The transfiguration classroom is larger than most. Books on transfiguration practically border the room; most of them are filled with very precise instructions as to how to perform most spells. There are many tables for use, all framed by straight chairs and ready for students to try their charms.

The second floor houses large and wide corridors, one lavatory, three balconies, and one empty classroom. Please role-play these places [ and others like them ] in this board.

The third floor is a very large one. It holds three bathrooms, a single, large balcony, three empty classrooms, and the large corridors of every floor. Please role-play these places [ and others like them ] in this board.

The fourth floor is pretty average. It has many corridors, no lavatories, two empty classrooms, and three balconies. Please role-play these places [ and others like them ] in this board.

The fifth floor is also pretty average. On this floor are two lavatories, three empty classrooms, two balconies, and the corridors of every floor. Please role-play these places [ and others like them ] in this board.

The sixth floor is one of the smallest. Nearing the top of the castle, there is one lavatory, a balcony, two empty classrooms, and some wide corridors. Please role-play these places [ and others like them ] in this board.

The seventh floor is mainly used for astronomy. There are no lavatories on this floor, four balconies, some corridors, and one empty classroom. Please role-play these places [ and others like them ] in this board.
