Well, with the new site we have a fresh start and a new term. So, that can only mean one thing - a new term plot!
Now, this doesn't have to come into effect right away, and I'm sure for a few weeks at least we'll just concentrate on small dramas and trying to get dates for the up and coming Start-of-Term-Ball.
But - having said that - does anyone have any ideas for our main plotline? Perhaps a student or teacher is murdered, there's scandal Death Eater plots from inside school are uncovered or maybe all the little character interactions come together in one big climax.
The sky's the limit and I'm willing to consider absolutely anything...
so, post away!

Okay, I was thinking if we could possibly carry on that complex plot which involved Sirius, Vonna, Severus, Adri and people that we formulated last time? I don't know if its still feasable or not, but I'd like to continue that. Is it possible to shift RPs across the sites? Like the one at the Lake with Sev and Vonna or the one in the entrance hall?

Yeah, I would definitely be willing to carry on with that one. I was having rather a lot of fun with that character. Oh, and Trish? On the canons list, you listed Avril Lavigne as Narcissa Black's celebrity, but that's Adri's.

Well celebrities are going to be moved about a lot anyway in the run up to the Opening.
But, I'm afraid as mentioned in the announcement, no celebrities or characters have been auto-reserved for who played them on the old site. This applies to original characters as well.
Yes, I was thinking of carrying on that plotline. Are we still going with the idea of a teacher dying to spark it all off?

I think that's a good idea. And Jack - Avril Lavigne is no longer the celebrity for Narcissa Black, so she's up for grabs again if you want to use her. Which reminds me... should put up a celeb claim list....

I'd love to be involved with something to do with the killing of a teacher *evil grin*

I think it's high time this thread was revived.
The fact of the matter is, we need a term plot more detailed than - 'The Marauders are in their 7th Year and the shadow of the rising Voldemort is weighing heavy on their minds.'
The plot needs to allow students to really do what they want within the main plotline, but it has to affect everybody.
We established that the suspicious death of a teacher would be a great starting point, so - is anyone willing to submit their character for murder?
I'm more than happy to kill off Diable, but we can come to that later.
The pressing issue at the moment is - how does the teacher die? Are they poisoned? Bitten by a venomous snake/plant/creature left in their office? And who would be responsible?

At risk of sounding clichéd, I think Slytherins have to dirty their pristine little hands in this plot I mean, Narcissa can be indirectly involved in the death of the teacher, who could've died by poisoning? On his food, or perhaps something that was unsuspiciously left uncorked in his office? A mysterious gift by an anonymous? Definitely not the DADA teacher, since it would've been immediately discovered. Or if it is Diable, it would have to be something more subtle... Also, there's a motive needed
Hmm, now you've got me brainstorming...

Does Bella already work for Voldemort? If so, perhaps he could order her to kill the teacher and Narcissa could help her, as a good sister.
Oh, and if you guys don't mind...I'd just luuurve it if my charrie got to discover the body?

Yeah, I don't see why that wouldn't be a good idea - someone's gotta find it.
Here's an idea - how about a whodunnit? It could be like a big site feature for a few weeks - evidence, witnesses and all that jazz.
By the way - Cissa and Trix have to be a big part of it, you're right - but as actual murderers?

Maybe if they helped the murderer, kept him informed of the victim's movements...?

mmhmm. i like the idea of the teacher dying. if i had a teacher character, i'd volunteer them. OH. if we want a whodunnit, we can have like..it happen somewhere. in a class. =P okay, in a class with amos key player's in it. and a couple of innocent bystanders who see it happen. that way, you'll have evidence, witnesses etc. if you decided on a poisoning, you could say the teacher took a sip of "water" or whatever, and fell to the ground twitching or something like that. few students try to 'help' but really murder them.
okay. that went a bit...off. =P ahaha... [/blockquote]

I volunteer Narcissa to be one of the suspects in the murder. Also, I like the idea of the whole 'whodunnit' thing. Oh! How about all the other people who volunteer their characters as suspects get together and discuss over PM or whatever, who is responsible? That way, only a limited amount of people would know how the murder came to be, and better yet, who is responsible for it! The whole site can be trying to remember where they were the night/day it happened and if they saw something suspicious. Though, are we going to RP the actual murder? Or like only the beginning and then we leave the rest to the imagination? Then the after effects can be RPed? Hmm... I'm popping too many questions, and I'm not sure if I'm making sense. Anyway, Cissa as a suspect!
And yeah, it can happen anywhere. In a classroom it would be sooo dramatic, lol

I'll add Trix to that list...after all, there's hardly anything bad that happens that you can't blame her for. It sounds like a lot of fun as well.
