Welcome to Potter’s Army

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.

He would usually enter his classroom without anything specific troubling his mind. He would observe the empty seats, prepare himself for another term of teaching, sit down at his desk and, eventually, start teaching his subject. This term was different, very different. Although the Dark Army practically controlled the school last term, Wilson did not have much trouble with keeping everything in line because he had no respect for those idiots and he wold easily both ignore and defeat any possible obstacle that could interfere with his classes. Also, he had the backing of the majority of the staff and the Headmaster. This year was different. William McCoy decided to retire after the devastating battle, witnessing the slaughter of both students and adults, explaining hat he had had enough. He was a strong man, very brave and righteous, but that righteousness cost him his job, or his willpower to do his job. He decided to resign because it was better not to work than to work improperly. If and when he will be back, he did not say, leaving, thus, the possibility of his return sometime in the course of Wilson's tenure at Hogwarts. Edgar Doyle was initially sacked, not officially, but it was obvious to everyone, even Doyle himself, that he would not get another chance after such a catastrophe within the castle. But, to everyone's amazement, the Ministry of Magic has proven itself somewhat worthy by not sacking Doyle and giving him another opportunity this term. He was, though, under surveillance and it was, indirectly, clear that he had no space for a mistake. Also, there was the question of the new eminence that was circling around the country, but that was something he would worry about later. Doyle was his back-up, but he had been visibly weakened. The new staff members also weren't people he could trust, with the exception of his former pupil, who had his trust and thereby Doyle's also, so he was left almost alone in the new situation that would surely escalate in due time.

For now, though, he had to worry about the classes. With a loud sigh, he walked to his desk and sat down. He put his wand on the desk and then, with a flick of his hand wrote the title of today's lesson. He then took a book he kept in hid drawer and started reading it, waiting for his new-old pupils to arrive.

To say things had changed about the old room would've been like saying that a baby dragon was adorable. Perhaps that was just a case of personal preferences, but James could not consider the possibility of an "adorable" baby dragon. They seemed horrid enough in books alone. James Wake found that he was the first to enter the class, a fine way to begin the term, and chose a seat in the front row. It would have seemed rude not to sit forward. After all, besides the professor, he was the only other person in the room.

"Morning Professor," he offered in way of greeting.
