The conditions House Elves are forced into are frankly appealing and shameful. They are treated as slaves due to their non-wizard status, which is borderline - no, obvious racism.

Are you willing to participate in meetings/gatherings?
Yes

Any previous interactions with house elves:
None, outside of reading

Upon reading an old issue of Daily Prophet—intending to be more well-versed of the Wizarding World—about Hermione Granger and her setting her foot down from her position as the Minister of Magic after Harry Potter was convicted of the murder of the former Hogwarts Inquisitor, Dolores Umbridge, I've been curious about her; although I'm a half-blood, I pretty much lived like a muggle in my earlier years. I was drawn to S.P.E.W., I had just known that house elves are oppressed and underrepresented slightly, and I don't see one around the castle. Latest issues in the Daily Prophet sealed the deal for me.

Are you willing to participate in meetings/gatherings? Yes! I'm kind of chronically online.

Any previous interactions with house elves: No, unfortunately, as I mentioned earlier, I don't see one running around the castle.

Why would you like to join? I love elves, and other mythical creatures, I respect the folk. This seems like a cool idea!
Are you willing to participate in meetings/gatherings? Of Course!
Any previous interactions with house elves:I had encountered a few in the Diagon Alley, they had been mischievously playing hide-and-seek with me as I tried to get my shopping done.

Thanks! I just have a few questions for you:
What -or where is this Zonko's? And how do I get a badge?
Also, what do I write about?

Thanks for letting me join!

Hey there! Zonko's Joke Shop is in Hogsmeade, and you need a fake permission form to access Hogsmeade, but don't worry about the badge! Once the meeting ends, everyone who participated would be gifted an S.P.E.W badge!
As for the RPG, you can write your character entering the meeting and interacting with the other members! We'll be (IC) painting badges in the meeting, so maybe you could write about your character taking badge (these are available for everyone in a bag Elisa brought IC), then painting it. These are just examples though, you can write whatever you want!
