I think they do work offline, but it'd be really hard anyway because there aren't any charging points or anything lol

"As JKR clearly explains, electricity and other muggle related comforts do not work in and around Hogwarts as there is “too much magic” around Hogwarts. Hence, mobile phones which need electricity (batteries) to work would obviously not work."

@Thomas Baines whats up good looking

Ooh, ok xD
Never mind then, I'm slightly guilty of that as well haha.
But yes, one of my pet hates is when people roleplay calling their Muggle parents on their mobile phones... Just no xD

Exactly! I think the best roleplay that includes it would be them on the train, going to Hogwarts and it just cuts off and their like "oh.. . guess we're close"

Quick question: How do I earn money? I know that I can earn a sickle every 24 hours, and I know about the errands, but how do the errands work?

Also: How do I get chocolate frogs?

Eee, welcome @Harmony Ruth! Good to see a new birb on the site. Basically, a mod (professor or prefect etc.) sets up a task to be completed by the students. Nothing taxing - usually just a great idea for a group roleplay to celebrate an event or just have fun. Examples might be the Professor Appreciation Assemble, where we're writing letters of appreciation to the Professors, or Artober, where we drew a Harry Potter related drawing every day of the month. The errands may have a prerequisite, like if it was set in Hogsmeade, you would need to be in at least 3rd year to do it, or own a Fake Permission Form (which grants early access to Hogsmeade and the Room of Requirement). But most of the time, anyone can do an errand! As for rewards, you get awarded either house points, chocolate frogs or money. May I link you to the Errands page, which is right HERE

As for chocolate frogs, errands are a good way to earn them. As well as that, I'm sure an older year would be happy to help you start your collection - on our discord server, we have a channel dedicated to chocolate frog card trading. Yes, you get cards in your frogs, containing a specific person from wizarding history. The cards are ranked from bronze, silver and gold, bronze being common, gold being rare. I'm sure many of us have quite a few bronze cards we'd be happy to lend! You can buy Chocolate Frogs, for 20 knuts apiece in Hogsmeade. You would need a Fake Permission Form or be in Third Year for this though. I will also link you to the invite to our discord server, HERE

Anyway, welcome Harmony. If you have any other questions, don't be afraid to ask me or anyone on here really! Enjoy!

that was long
