Welcome to Potter's Army

We have been a Harry Potter Roleplaying site since 2007. If you're an old member we hope you come check out the discord link provided below. And if you're looking for a new roleplaying site, well, we're a little inactive. But every once and a while nostalgia sets in and a few of our alumni members will revisit the old stomping grounds and post together. Remember to stay safe out there. And please feel free to drop a line whenever!

What’s Happening?
Since every few months or so a few of our old members get the inspiration to revisit their old stomping grounds we have decided to keep PA open as a place to revisit old threads and start new ones devoid of any serious overarching plot or setting. Take this time to start any of those really weird threads you never got to make with old friends and make them now! Just remember to come say hello in the chatbox below or in the discord. Links have been provided in the "Comings and Goings" forum as well as the welcome widget above.

You know what made me laugh today? I realized I'd been misspelling the name of Vito Dee Symon's club for centuries. What is it supposed to be named, you ask? Satan’s. Satin... ha! Gotta love human error. Note the sarcasm in that last sentence. I'd apologize for misspelling it all this time, but I really don't thing anyone other than Vito was offended by this error. Aw well. That is what you get for cheating on your spelling tests in the second grade; maybe if I hadn't I would know what Satin was XD I'll be changing the name and the club's description, but as far as posts go, I will only edit them if I feel that the error has made the post too ridiculous.

Meanings of the word "Satin"
    n.
    1. A smooth fabric, as of silk or rayon, woven with a glossy face and a dull back.
    2. A garment made of this fabric.
    adj.
    1. Made of or covered with satin.
    2. Glossy, sleek, and smooth.


Meanings of the word "Satan" or "Satanic

    Chief spirit of evil and adversary of God; tempter of mankind; master of Hell

    Demonic; extremely evil or cruel; expressive of cruelty or befitting hell; "something demonic in him--something that could be cruel"; "hellish torture"; satanic - of or relating to Satan


I suppose in some cases "Satin" would work for the club, but certainly not "Satin's". I do hope most of you realized I was misspelling the word, and did not assume that I actually meant to name the club "Satin's". [mutters] Perhaps even "Satins", but not "Satin's"- never "Satin's". [/mutters]

I know, I always wondered. I figured the misspelling was sort of a clever little joke, but whenever I read it I would think of it as Satan's. Personally, I like it as Satin's. XD

I didn't link it with Satan, actually. I just thought it was Satin's and for me it worked. I wouldn't change it. Satin's flows better. xD

Personally, I much prefer Satins as well. I'd leave it.

I thought you were referring to how many people, when they want to dress up as the devil for halloween or something, get dressed up in red tights and a red cape and those little satin devil horns and tail.

I thought it was a play on words. </clarify>
