Designing an Encyclopedia
Encyclopedias are an important part of HiO. They give you an opportunity to explore your character, and they're also very helpful when you begin to start roleplaying! Also, they are mandatory if you want to register into the official index. When designing your encyclopedia, you have to have at least two specific posts, which are explained in this very helpful guide! If you want to know how to make your encyclopedia and posts fun and aesthetic, keep reading!
Applying for Special Races
Yes, you can be a different species (other than human), but you have to apply within the first thirty days. So what are the benefits of being a part-human? This guide explains it well! However, here is a quick run-down: you can apply for a dhampir, Metamorphmagus, parselmouth, part giant, part goblin, seer, part-Veela, and a werewolf. There are several perks to each, so make sure to read the linked guide. Abilities are also explained there!
...
*.✧ Earning Money ✧.*
Do you want to make money onsite? On HiO, you can earn wizarding currency, as in Galleons, Sickles, and Knuts. Read this article, which will tell you all you need to know.
A common question that people ask is how to make money. To answer that question, the simplest way to do it is to show up on site every day and head to your dormitory (boys/girls) in your house Common Room. At the top, there is a silver circle or a timestamp, as well as several other icons. Just click on the silver circle and you’ll gain a Sickle. You can only collect the scholarship once every day, so the timestamp tells you how long you have to wait before being able to collect it again. The amount of Sickles you can collect will increase with each year. You can also earn extra money by participating in errands, being a part goblin, a member of the staff, or a part of the Hogwarts Headliner. Staff positions open every once a while, so I recommend subscribing to the Bulletin Board forum to get notified of every post there.
Pets
Want to have pets? You might want to save up your galleons first, but once you have enough, refer here. It will give you many options on what to buy, from a common toad to a Pygmy Puff. The prices also vary, and your pet can cost anywhere from 5 to 20 galleons.
...
Classes
Want to take classes? Here is an article that will inform you of what you need to know. Completing certain classes will give you certain spells to add to your arsenal, but remember that they are completely optional and OOC (out of character)! Also, you do have to be on the site for 10 days and have 20 posts to you unlock them.
[quote][b][i]You put two links at the beginning, are they mandatory?[/i][/b]
Make sure to read the following articles if you’re interested in becoming a Quidditch player, team captain, or even just spectating. You can read this and then these spectator guidelines.

nah- it's not required- i don't think most do anyways, but if you want an image for your trunk, which is used onsite when you graduate, join sports, go to the balls, etc, you can pick one image to use for your trunk. This is a guide- and should answer your question, as well as explain how to create one. How to make Ency

EDIT: please don't doublepost, if you have more to say, wait til the next person posts, or click the pencil on top of your post to edit

also no double posting- if you wish to add to a message you can edit it with the pencil icon on your post

edit: dang you beat me to it- @cody Stevenson

mhm, that's in your timezone though I think - where I am it was definitely 11 or 12 at night

Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise.
