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.

CHARACTER HISTORY
------------------------------------------------------------


    Early Years: Rayasha, when she was 5, saw her mother's death (because the Death Eaters murdered her) and cried until she was 9, and she discovered she had to live with her rotten father. So she went to her father's house and he bossed her around all the way up to 10, when she set off to Hogwarts. In the holidays she visited her Aunt Beth and Uncle John so she was perfectly safe until her 11th birthday, when they moved to Australia and couldn't make it in the holidays, so Rayasha has to cope with her dad.

    Hogwarts Years: In first year, she liked singing and kept on bursting out with 'Jessie J ft. BoB - Price Tag' and also went to hip hop dancing lessons in the school holidays. In second year she was so advanced the class was to beginner for her. She went to an expert class for dancing and carried on. She still does it now, in third year. She visits Hogsmeade a lot. In second year, she also joined Dueling Club but quit when she decided it was too rough. She took up Quidditch then, practising - taking Flying Class, as well.

    Adulthood: Not yet adult.

    RP SAMPLE: Rayasha entered the Great Hall, ready for the Sorting Ceremony. She was so excited! She listened through as the others got sorted into their houses.
    "May, Rayasha," the professor said.
    Rayasha stepped up and sat on the chair. The professor carefully placed the Sorting Hat on her head and it talked to her!
    "Hmm...are you cunning enough for Slytherin? Or maybe Ravenclaw? Gryffindor? No, there's much more to you than that. HUFFLEPUFF!"
    Rayasha jumped off her seat and rushed to join her fellow Hufflepuffs on the table.

Hey Maisy,
Welcome to Potter's Army!

So far the app is good but it's quite vague. The history seems a bit rushed to me. You need to take more time with it, read over it and go more in depth with it. How did her mother die? Where was she born? Where did her father live? <-- questions like that. Then there's the Hogwarts part. You have to do that too as she is a third year. You only need to do from first year to third, though. Also, with the early years, what was the family like? It sounds as if her mother and father weren't together and her relationship with her father is strained as a result. I'm not sure on that.

You need to add more to the appearance. She doesn't have a play-by so you need to explain more or less exactly who she looks -- for your own benefit as much as everyone else's. I like her style though. It says practical rather than stylish. I like it. Wink

Personality! She interests me a lot. She clearly had a very close relationship with her mother -- perhaps that's something you could talk about in the part that lists her mother or in the history -- and she seems to have no personal trauma despite seeing her mother die. What specific moment conjures the Patronus for her? You put just simply being with her mother -- is there a specific time or place with her mother that makes the Patronus take form? The Boggart is interesting. Why exactly is she so scared of Death Eaters? I can only presume that they killed her mother. If she's so terrified, how does she handle being around children of known Death Eaters?

Those are just my queries! xD No worries, there. And as per the Half-Veela request, you won't be able to make Rayasha a Half-Veela but we can discuss another character with those genes at a later date. It's good so far!

Hey, Maisy! Welcome aboard!

I've read your app, and I have some questions that we really do need to have you answer before we can aprove this.

1. Who's your playby? Got a pic you're going to mount up there? Or do you prefer your character to not have any sort of playby? If you need help with that, speak up.

2. You've made it very clear that she thinks her dad is a prat, but why, exactly? its a huge part of her history that you have left out. You need to tell us so we can understand her.

3. She was just 5 when her mom died? If she loves her aunt and uncle so much, why is all of her thinking revolving around her dead mom? If she was just 5, she would barely remember her mom.

4. You do realize that she is 13 and the site is set in, like, 2022, right? There is no way she could possibly have won a poetry contest in 1999. she would not have been born yet. And if she was 5 when her mom died, she would not have been able to write poetry yet. Please fix that.

5. Please mark any family members as deceased, if they are--such as her mom. Just put (deceased) behind their names.

6. cat? is it with her at hogwarts? does it have a name? what kind of cat?

7. rp experience? Give is a specific idea. 6 months? 1 year? What? Newbie? There's no wrong answer here. Just be specific.

Thanks,
K.
