I am indeed interested. I will be a good friend of Harry, who is rivals with Hermione over who does better in school. my name will be Pam (an abbreviation for Pain and Misery...what are the odds?) Yes...Pam the witch...sign me up please!

I would like this RP to be a "Hogwarts" RP as well, but first we need to see what other people think. ;)

Right now.

Thoughts, anyone?

If we do Hogwarts:

We need a really good RPer to be Harry. That should go without saying, but I'm saying it anyway.
Pain and Misery
26-07-2005, 06:38
I can already see it...here is the opening:

Harry awoke with a start one morning after his scare had been hurting. Harry sat up in bed. He had absolutely no idea what had happened the previous night, or what was making his scar hurt so badly. He looked around his room. It would have been normal except for the fact that there was wizard shit all over the floor and walls. To his right, there sat a note from Professor Dumbledore about Hogwarts. On his night table and floor, there were beer bottles everywhere, and to his left...

Suddenly Harry remembered everthing clear as day. Yes, thats right... He had gotten smashed at that neighborhood party and Laid his neighbor Pam in the process, and there she lay next to him in bed, with a pile of clothing in a heep next to her on the floor. This also explained why Harry's head was hurting so much.
"Fuckin hangover" he thought to himself as he pulled on some clothes...

---------------------
Tell me if you think its good so far? lol
The Great Sixth Reich
26-07-2005, 06:41
LOL!

But in all seriousness, that's completely out-of-character for Harry! He dreams about making out with girls, but rarely actually does it. So I don't think he'll be in bed with Pam anytime soon. ;)

---------------------------------------------------------

Now, any objections to a Hogwarts RP?
Pain and Misery
26-07-2005, 06:45
oh alright, I guess you are correct on that one. He needs to get contacts in place of those huge Bifocals he wears before any 'magic' happens.

Anyway, back to reality. I am a rather inexpierienced RPer. I started one a loooong time ago but it quickly died. I don't think that I would make a good Harry. We need someone reaaly good for that. I think I will simply stick to Pam for now.
Oh yeah, another thought I had was that we could make up spells and stuff along the way like in various classes, after all Rowling does it ;-).

I am going to sleep for now. I will check up on this thread tomorrow morning and see how its comming along. For now, night night.

-Pain and Misery

PS. no objections to a Hogwarts RP. I am sure we are all more familiar with Hogwarts than any other place in the book.
PPS. The defense against the dark arts teacher can be Professor Hanshundunjunson...(maybe not)

There is one-hundred spells available here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_spells_in_Harry_Potter). I think it will be left to who ever role-plays the professors if they need to invent new spells (using Latin words, or variations of).

As for the time, I think it should be right at the start of Harry Potter and the Half-Blooded Prince.

I'd like to be a transfer student if at all possible... I'm MUCH better at RPing as a character I make up rather then someone else...

I've read a few of the books and seen the movies, and I know 4 different spellcasting systems (Harry potter style, zorkian, tolkienesque, and Gygexian.)

(no offence to you harry-potter fanboys/girls out there, but zorkian spells are cooler. I could turn purple things invisible... or invisible things purple with simply reading the same spell backwards)
The Great Sixth Reich
26-07-2005, 07:31
but zorkian spells are cooler.

In your opinion. :)

This seems lighthearted and relaxed enough to match the quality of the people here... so I think I will jump in and just have fun if at all possible...

I was going to opt for Professor Binns... but when it comes to minor and uninteresting he is too much to handle...

So can I get Firenze before some random furry takes it or something?

Well I can handle more then one character if needed.
The Great Sixth Reich
26-07-2005, 19:25
We don't need everybody. We just need a few more people minimum. I would prefer at least three more, so we can have the major characters covered (Hermione, Harry, and Voldemort).

However, just two more (Harry and Hermione) is all we need to start. Draco and Voldemort could be paired up.
Pain and Misery
26-07-2005, 20:42
Pam's last name will be 'Walker'

I can also play an important character if you want. I like playing bad guys, so I could be Lord Voldemort or Snape if you wanted. Just a thought.

You need to RP extremely good if you are. The whole RP pretty much depends on you if you do become Potter.

You can make up your character even if you arn't a transfer student. There's plenty of Hogwarts characters that are not named in the Harry Potter books, simply because they didn't play any role at all in the storyline.

In other words, either way you choose, the answer is yes. ;)

Pam was sitting in the Train compartment talking with Harry, when she heard the commotion outside.

"I will be right back, Harry", said Pam as she opened the compartment door, stepped out, and then closed it again.

"EAT THIS YOU FILTHY BASTARDS!!!" heard Harry from outside the compartment.

This was followed by several red and yellow flashes. Pam stepped back into the compartment with her wand at her side and her head high in the air.

"They fired a jinx at me of some sort," she began, "but I simply deflected it and turn them all into walking baked potatoes."

Harry looked out, and indeed, all over the floor, were baked potatoes with legs. Suddenly Nevil Longbottom came around the corner and stepped on one of them, turning it into mashed potatoes.

"Who left these all over the floor?!" he yelled.

Harry and Pam grinned at eachother.

"This school year is already starting off wonderfully" said Harry to Pam.

Humor is fine, but "waking baked potatoes" is too farfetched. In fact, any transformation spell is too usually too farfetched, as a rule of thumb, just to let you know. ;)

Also, Harry isn't on the train yet, so that post doesn't even belong yet.

Write a quick RP about him getting on the train. As I said in the RP thread, I'll RP the "free" characters if they are needed (AKA: If you talk to a person who doesn't have a person RPing that person, I'll reply as that person).
