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.

Ruby nodded to Angus as he spoke then saw Robert return from upstairs and start to explain what Jada knew and how she came to be as she was. Ruby looked to Robert and spoke " well she could do that here" she said " in a safe, protected environment" she looked to Aria who glanced to Marcus and nodded.

"safest place is right here, you have the fae right out side so she could learn from them, while recovering and not hunted by that Faepyre" Aria said with her arms folded across her chest as she spoke to Robert.

"You lot don't have any vacant rooms here," Edward said. "I happen to have three. She can use one of the rooms on my side. Now, we need to see about going back and getting her bag. It might not be much, but if it's all she has, we need to try to go retrieve it."

"Agreed," Robert said. "I think we should see if Jack can pop into London, go to the Leaky and get her bag and do that or if he has someone who will go. We don't have any idea if the faepyre is gone but I see little sense in him hanging around unless he is stalking out the room waiting for Jada to come back. What room was she in?"

"Second room on the right," Marcus replied. Robert scribbled a quick note to Jack, asking Jack to either go or send a fierce fighter to the Leaky, to the second room on the right upstairs, to retrieve any personal belongings left there and bring them straight back. He warned Jack there could be a new type of magical creature who could be extremely dangerous, so it wasn't a job for Sam or Victor. Then he sent the message as a paper bird to Jack.

"Now, hopefully Jack can send some to take care of that," Robert said. "In the meantime, though, Minos, how likely is it that Jada Brown is her real name?" Minos shook his head, meaning that he did not believe that Jada Brown was her real Fae name. "I didn't think so," Robert said. "Her story makes me question if there are any records son her at all. She states she has vague memories of her mother, but she states that was when she was quite small. She states she doesn't know what happened to her mother, but she states she was also very small when she was taken to an orphanage and left there. She ran off from there when she was still minor age. She states the 'creature,' as she called it, has chased her for a number of years now. She's been living off of cookies and such. She does not remember when she had a hot meal last. She was, however, receptive to staying with you lot, and when I said we might be able to teach her a sort of improvised sign language, she was receptive to learning that too."

Ruby watched Robert send a note to Jack and nodded at Roberts words to warn him of the new foe. Hearing Jada was receptive of staying but they didn't have any room she heard Edward speak and nodded she agreed. Aria smiled when Robert said she was receptive to learning sign language so they could communicate better. When Robert spoke of her not having hot food Ruby remembered they had some of Simone's soup still in the kitchen " I can heat some soup for her with home made bread if she's hungry." Ruby said.

Not even an hour passed before Jack knocked on the door , Ruby opened it and he walked in with a purse and a box. " this was all I could find in the room you mentioned." he said to Robert as he set down the items " also no sign of that Faepyre you mentioned , I came back via Paris." he added

"Thank you, Jack," Robert said, as Jada came downstairs wearing a pair of Anise's jeans and a pink pulllover sweater that also belonged to Anise. Her creamy blonde colored hair seemed to cascade perfectly around her shoulders, and the pink sweater made her turquoise eyes seem to be a deep, vibrant shade of teal. For himself, Elwood had always wondered what a human sized fairy would look like. Now he knew. She was hard for him to look away from.

"Jada," Angus said, "this is Jack. He works here, and you can trust him. Jack, this is Jada. Jada is a new friend, and she's going to be staying with us. The things you retrieved are hers. Thank you." Angus glanced at Jada who cast him a rather helpless look. "Oh. I think she wants you to know that she is mute. We hope to teach her the same signing system that Minos uses."

"She is the one the faepyre is hunting," Marcus told Jack. "And from what we're learning, he's been damned relentless."

"I should teach you lot about faepyres and what they are and aren't capable of," Elwood said. "But do try to wrap your minds around a vampire who has also developed Fae magical abilities. They're just damned dangerous, and underestimating them would be a fatal mistake."

Jack looked at Jada as she walked down the stairs " nice to meet you Jada" he said as Robert introduced her. "Understood, I'll let the grounds men know and we'll see what we can put in place to stop this creature from infiltrating the grounds." he said he looked to Robert " she defiantly had that Fae look about her" he said.

Ruby heated the soup and smiled seeing Jada in Anises clothing placing a warm bowl on the table with fresh bread she looked to Robert " soups ready" she said smiling as she pulled out a chair for Jada.

"Go get some food," Robert suggested to Jada gently. "It's fine." Angus saw her glance at the remaining slices of the honey bread sitting on the plate on the coffee table. Angus smiled and he floated the plate of honey bread over to the table.

"I think that honey bread would be lovely with that soup. Help yourself," Angus said. She forgot herself and flashed a quick smile. Angus laughed gently. "We all have sweet tooths too. We completely get it. Go tuck into some food. You really can't live on cookies forever." Minos fluttered to her and made a couple signs at her, and she watched him for a minute and seemed to get the message and she nodded. He beamed and clapped, pleased with her, and he followed her to the table to continue to try to begin communicating with her while she ate.

"I'll have Michael get busy on a background check to see if we can find anything helpful," Robert said. "In the meantime, I have things to do. If you need anything, you let me know."

"Thank you," Angus told Robert. Robert left to go back to work. Angus floated the sketch to Jack. "Thought you might like to see our newest target. Meet Tall-Dark-and-Creepy."

Ruby chuckled as Angus floated the honey brad over to the table and she nodded as Jada moved with Minos to sit at the table to eat the soup. Jack took the sketch from Angus and looked at it " well that's defiantly a good description of him" he said studying the image closer before handing it back to Angus " I should go talk to the guys " he said " nice meeting you Jada" he said and headed out the door and across to the guard tower.

Aria sat down and took up her paper and began to read. " well there's nothing about an attack in the paper" she said " but there is about a creature hunting the alleys " she showed them the article about a dark creature reported stalking women in Diagon ally.

"Thanks, Jack," Angus said as Jack left. Jada had most of the soup that was in the bowl, and two slices of honey bread. Marcus went out to the kitchen and offered her a strawberry soda. That seemed to make her happy. Marcus didn't want to tell her that he was starting to think her Fae side might be bigger than she knew. When she finished her soup, Marcus took her dishes to the sink. She watched how he had done it to try to learn how things were done here.

"Don't get overly concerned about knowing all the rules," Marcus smiled. "There aren't many. Really, there's only a couple. Be honest and be yourself. That's pretty much it." She looked at him, expecting there would be a list of things. After all, the only other place she had lived in with other people was the orphanage and there were loads of rules. But there were none here? That was different.

Minos motioned to her to follow him, and he took her outside to show her the Fae village. Angus took it upon himself to open Jada's bag and look in it. He found two pairs of jeans, a tee shirt, a pullover sweater, two pairs of socks, two pairs of underwear, and a rather threadbare looking denim jacket. There were a few toiletries and a loose handful of galleons--57 to be exact. There was a very battered copy of a paperback book. The pages were all dogeared, and the cover had apparently worn off a very long time ago. He read the first line on the first page. "This copy of David Copperfield saw better days decades ago," Angus said. "Two changes of clothes, 57 galleons, and a sad little copy of Dickens. That's all this child has in the world. I mean, not even a wand. Nothing."

Ruby smiled as Angus told Jada what was expected and she nodded when he told her all she had to do was be honest and be herself. " we don't ask much" she said as she then saw Minos walk with Jada outside to the Fae village. Seeing Marcus looking in Jada's bag and spoke of what was in it. She sighed hearing how little the woman had. " that's bad , would have thought she would have a lot more than this" she said picking up the well worn book.

Aria looked up and walked over taking the book from Ruby " maybe we can replace this with a new copy." she said turning it over in her hand as she looked at the dogeared corners and well worn pages.

"That's not a problem," Angus said. "I just sent an order in to Flourish and Blotts yesterday. Why don't you find out what she likes to do, if she likes to read, and if so, what sort of books would she like? We can add some to the order I just sent in, and they'll just deliver them. Maybe I can take her over to Clive's so I can see what sort of clothes she likes and Clive can hook her up with an initial wardrobe. It strikes me that it could be a tad difficult for her to find clothes that look good on her. I think her fae features makes her look particularly delicate, and I think heavier clothes, like sweaters and such, will keep her warm, and that's a necessity. I get that. But I think they won't necessarily look good on her. She'll look horribly overdressed. Rather like trying to put a parka on a butterfly. Maybe Clive can find a happy midground somehow."

"I have books and books in my lab up in the tower," Edward said. "She might find something up there to start on today if she wants to read that soon. She's welcome to look. I am curious about something, though. I wonder how old she really is. She looks really young. I know that Fae can look young even if they're not, but she just seems really young."

"Agreed," Elwood said. "She looks to me like she might be close to Anise and Ginger's age."
