Summer. It’s only one, simple month away. Entering in to the final weeks of May, many students only wish it were that easy. For the younger years, the every day stress of just keeping up with last minute homework and studying for finals can be a major hardship. For the fifth years, one of the biggest tests yet is just around the corner: OWLs. Perhaps the seventh year’s worries are the largest of them all though, with NEWTs so dangerously close and cramming sessions becoming more frequent. Not only that, but with the close of another year, that means Hogwarts will be losing an entire year worth of students come graduation. It’s always a difficult time. But some…more so than others.
Every accepted character application is moved here. A complete list of characters is also included in here with listings for the Heads of Houses, Prefects and Quidditch Teams.
Once your character has been accepted, you may apply for extra titles and privileges for them to hold and take part in. These include joining their house Quidditch Team and becoming Prefects and Head Students.
Here you can create a Character Log for your character. It is a simple and organized thread that lists the relationships your character has with others.
This is the board where your character may spill their inner most thoughts out on paper. It is their personal journal published for all to see what exactly they're thinking on the current situations.
Want to know what’s going on around the schools – when’s the next club meeting, who’s playing who in the next Quidditch match, maybe you’ve lost something and it’s listed? All those academically inclined notices (as well as a few handwritten mentions from students) can be found here.
Ever wanna know about the happenings around Hogwarts? Rita Skeeter is here with the answers. “Around here we report nothing but the truth – the dirty, dirty truth.”
A nondiscriminatory and infallible paper presenting the real facts concerning the mundane and the fantastic. Monitored by Lilura Liridon and Xenophilius Lovegood.

A Large cavernous foyer with arching stone ceilings and stain-glass windows. Directly behind the giant oak doors leading into the castle from the grounds. First years assemble here before sorting.
With four grand tables particularly placed side-by-side and a high table at the very end of the hall, this place was donned with immediate superiority. All meals are eaten here and feasts occur most often on holidays.
Every single book is located in this library. It is commonly used for studying, but even if you need some peace and quiet, this is a great place to be.
A steep spiral staircase leads to the top of the tower, with a door (which has an iron ring as a handle) leading out onto the ramparts, which are crenellated.
Every winding stairway, every hallway, and every secret passage way leads somewhere within this castle. Whether you're roaming around or even trying to get to class, these are the paths throughout the castle.
A large lake in the front lawn of Hogwarts is a nice place to relax. A large tree is placed directly next to it for shading. But beware of the Giant Squid!
Once a month, every student who is in the third year or above is permitted to visit the village of Hogsmeade. Provided, of course, they have got their permission slip signed by a parent or guardian. It is the only all-wizarding community left in Britain and although not technically in the school grounds, close enough to merit a place in this category.
Built by Daisy Dodderidge around 1500 "to serve as a gateway between the non-wizarding world and Diagon Alley", the Leaky Cauldron has remained a famous and popular place for five hundred years. Located not in Diagon Alley proper but on the outside, on Charing Cross Road in the heart of London.
The tavern sees quite a lot of traffic and is frequently crowded. While this can be partly attributed to its reputation as a welcoming place, it also seems to largely be due to it location as a hub for Diagon Alley.
Diagon Alley is a magical highstreet, situated in London, but hidden from muggle eyes. The only way to reach this enchanted place is through the inn, The Leaky Cauldron. Once through, you can buy anything your heart desires. From magical pets to wands and school robes, this is an essential destination for all Hogwarts students.
Just around the corner from Diagon Alley lies a dark, twisting alleyway devoted to the Dark Arts: Knockturn Alley. the shops and the street vendors one can purchase, among other things, shrunken heads, poisonous candles, human-looking fingernails, and Flesh-Eating Slug Repellent.
Founded nearly 500 years ago, St. Mungo's Hospital is located, hidden, in London. With six floors of healers treating all kinds of magically-inflicted injuries, Hogwarts students sometimes visit the hospital on work-experience trips, or else to visit ill relatives or friends.
This board is meant to be your everywhere and anywhere – if you have a certain place you’d like to role play and isn’t included within our main boards (i.e. unlisted stores, houses/homes, rooms in Hogwarts – rarely used locations, in short) then please post threads here.
No plot history applies in this strange parallel-universe-in-a-board, so the sky really is the limit. Post games and strange scenarios for your characters to play out.
Eyes drooping as you listen to the sound of your professor drone on and on? Why not slip a note to the person next to you? You never know - they may just write back.
