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.

Jack showed up with her halfbrother Kip. Both were still very uncertain on how they felt about muggles joining their world. The Dyllan family was predominantly muggle, with a few magical exceptions - Kip chalked it up to a great-great-great-great-grandmother being a powerful witch, but their genealogy was a bit wonky. The betterment and proper treatment of muggles had always been important, but Jack was personally a little offput by the immersion of muggles into their world stemming from an unexplained accident. Kip was even less certain of their immersion as a rule, but both had agreed that if they were going to be apart of their world, they deserved training. There were too many people out there who were going to be hell bent on taking muggles down.

They needed to defend themselves. That much was obvious.

The two showed up just as the house elves filed out. Kip smiled pleasantly at the little elves, tilting his head and saying, "Hi, everyone. How are we today?"

A chorus of "Thank you, sir, very good, sirs" chirped up as Jack approached Monroe. She put a hand out for him to shake, as she hadn't seem him in awhile. "Alright? What are we looking at?"

Jack clapped her hands together, looking excited at the prospect of getting to meet these strange magical overlaps. She could deny that there was a part of muggle culture she missed. In comparison, the magical community seemed lazy, while the nonmagical community had to rely on their own labor to do what magic could. It was for this reason that Jack did so much of her tedious work without magic, why she enjoyed driving her car. It would be nice to hang out with some of her original people.

It'd be like hanging out with family. Except, not as cold and unwelcome.

Kip smiled pleasantly at the other man. "Pleasure. I'm sure I'd give her a great let-down were we to meet. But thank you."

The door opened and a man stepped in, introducing himself. Had to be a muggle, as Jack suspected anyone who would be coming in to help train would surely be a familiar face. Jack smiled, thrusting out a hand as usual. "I'm Jack." Kip nodded as well, saying, "I'm Kip."

Jack typically wasn't so welcome, but this was such an interesting, new experience. "So, you're a muggle?" Right into it, alright. "I'm actually a muggleborn, so I've been through the whole 'what the hell is this world' thing. Crazy, right?"

Kip slowly turned to look at his half-sister. Why didn't he get this Jack when he met her? He got a punch in the face, literally, as a greeting. He think he preferred the treatment he got, to this weirdly friendly Jack.

Hadley wasn't so sure about this whole training thing. James had told her it was a good idea, but she didn't truly think that he would be disappointed in her if she didn't go. However, the thing that really got her out of the door and into the training session was the fact that something was almost amazing about the fact that she was one of the few who seemed to have been taken in. Didn't they want her to be safe? Surely that would be one of the benefits that came from her agreeing to go.

And so, of course, she arrived. A bit later than perhaps she was expected to, but she had done her best. She pushed a section of her hair out of her eyes as she walked in, surprised somehow that she didn't see anyone she knew. That was ridiculous, though, and she knew James wasn't going to be there. Or, he hadn't said he would be. So it seemed that the only person she would actually 'know' would be one of the other so-called Muggles that had been walking around the Inn from time to time. At least, he looked familiar. At this point, she couldn't quite fathom how else to phrase it. Nothing in her life was genuinely familiar, and she wasn't sure if it was exhilarating or maddening.

She hesitated, mostly unsure how she was supposed to cast spells properly without a wand like the ones she had seen people use around Diagon Alley. Gosh, was ridiculous names these people had for things. Diagon Alley? Mental.

"Hello," she offered weakly, wrapping the fingers of her right hand around her left elbow as if it could make her a bit smaller and thus less different or in the way.

Teddy was running late. Oh, Merlin. He hated being late to places, especially important ones. And what could be more important than the first meeting in all of wizarding history to help muggles learn magic. Teddy had not yet fully decided on his feelings on the strange phenomenon, as there were far too many implications to just blindly accept the cultural change. He, as an advocate for muggles rights, obviously was not bigoted towards them and wished them all the best. He was merely afraid that if they joined the wizarding society, they would be in danger. And he did not want that, of course.

He arrived, seemingly moments after a woman in front of him. He saw Monroe and Kip, casting them smiles, when his eyes fell on Jack who gave him an eager grin. "Christ," he whispered. He locked eyes with the other woman and quickly smiled. "Erm, hi." He glanced about, before offering a hand awkwardly. "Teddy Lupin. Pleasure to meet you."

Hadley turned to look at the man who entered behind her, recognizing the fact that he must be one of the wizards who had offered to help out. He seemed to know the others, at the very least. He seemed nice enough, as far as Hadley was concerned, so she gave a sort of nod in greeting as she reached out to take his hand and shake it.

"Hadley Swan," she offered, trying to sound more confident than she really was. It was more her fear of failure than innate shyness. Typically she was very serious about proving that she was unafraid of difficult or frightening situations. But, in this case, she had no way to use any of her typical skills in order to help herself along.

She looked up in surprise, though, her hand still in Teddy's. That other man was quite direct, she realized, her eyebrows lifted slightly. Hadley did try to cover it up by looking back at Teddy and drawing in a breath as she released his hand. Her fingers curled into her palm and she turned back towards the rest of the group, tapping her heels together quietly as she waited for someone to get things started. In truth, she was slightly curious about his question, but she had sort of hoped it would have been explained along the way. This way, at least she would get the information in a timely manner, though.
