Hello! Welcome to Hogwarts.io! This site is full of wonderful people to guide you through this new role form of role playing experience if you are new to text rpg, but in other words, Getting to know the rules is a good idea, so come read it here: R U L E S Want to start somewhere? I’m always free to role play, just owl me. But before you do, read this. By the way, in this guide, there are boxes named REDUCIO, click those. Those are dropboxes. Reducio Get to know people, for instance, Noah Jupe is in a family whose dads have adopted seven boys, all purebloods. Therefore, making it a pureblood family. Noah is a mentor for all Gryffindors, but he will mentor other Houses. Noah was a Dueler for the Gryffindors, and he excels in Herbology, giving him Incendio and Incendio Duo. Noah is, and will always be, as I DONT WANT TO CHANGE HIS TINY SIZE, four foot two inches. He has a twin brother named Billy Jupe, and Billy, Wally, and Theodore love to pick on him. So if Noah interacts with your player at London, then you are bound to run into them. Or, my current account- Cody Stevenson is a young boy, who is in first year, and is, at the moment, a muggleborn. He has a twin brother named Freddy, and he doesn’t talk all too much about his family. He strives for perfection, but he is also one who falls under the curse of leading Chaos. He is a member in a lot of clubs and is a member of a top secret, elite club, named BOOM. Upon his arrival, he met Juniper Kelly, who got sorted into Ravenclaw, and he got sorted into Hufflepuff. These two are the Chaotic Duo. If you want to order something, we, as part goblins (application approved), will make things to your expectation.

When designing your Encyclopedia, you have to have two of the four posts in order to be registered in the index, where you can then participate in main story events. Also, to prevent any confusion, you can be a species other than a human attending Hogwarts, but you have to apply for it in the first thirty days. How?	Do you want to make money onsite? By this, I mean wizarding currency as in Galleons, Sickles, and Knuts. Read this article as it will tell you all you need to know. Plus, as people keep asking how they make money, a simple way to do it, is to show up onsite every day, go to your dormitory (boys/girls) in your House (Gryffindor/Ravenclaw/Slytherin/Hufflepuff). At the top, of the list is a pencil for New post, A silver circle, or time until you can get your sickle (silver circle.), A bell, to be notified of every post in that forum, a check mark to mark every threads in that forum as read. And a magnifying glass to search for specific words or things mentioned in that forum. But back to the sickles. Just click on the silver circle and you’ll gain one sickle at first year, two at second… to be fair, I don’t know about the rest of the years as Noah was a second year. With a Part Goblin as your race, you can make 5 sickles a day for your first year, in addition to the one sickle. If you have a moderator position, or are a writer, you get paid for your hard work. Positions open frequently, I recommend subscribing to the Bulletin Board forum to get notified of every post there. Reducio
Want to have pets at Hogwarts? You might want to save up your Galleons first, but once you have enough, refer here as it gives you options on what to buy.	Want to take classes here at Hogwarts? Check this article out, here to inform you of what you need to know. Also, you do have to be onsite for 10 days and have 20 posts. Then you unlock your report card. And classes.
Is your character planning on getting detention? You might want to talk to the Professors, Headmaster, and/or Prefects as a consent between whoever you are threading with that can give you detention. Check here.	Make sure you have your stats, and this article explains what your Stamina, Evasion, Strength, Wisdom, Arcane Power, and Accuracy are for, and how you use them. (also includes what you roll, add, multiply… it's a math thing. But it’s fun! I promise!)
This article for Quidditch is really meant for those who are playing Quidditch and the Team Captains and just about everyone who is spectating, but you can read this and then this spectator thread rules/guidelines.	Ok. Now, if you want to duel, you’ll have to complete some classes and get your grades in return in order to have spells. Then put them in your trunk, and provide proof for the mods. Then go to your common room and from there, you have the dueling application thread. Read the first post and read the application process. Then you input your character’s ACCURATE information. I’m going to show you an example application, and not my real one. NOTE: These pictures are taken from the Gryffindor Common Room, your house common room would be similar, but would still contain applications on there. Reducio

Now, we explore one last part of Hogwarts, and what they have to offer. There ARE a lot more out there, I was just pointing out what might interest you. Let’s go to the Bulletin Board, where you can keep up to date with everything, and even find a staff application or two. Go here. It is the forum of a ton of threads, read through them and you’ll discover some interesting treasures.

The Leaky Cauldron

* * *

The Leaky Cauldron NOW! We are out of Hogwarts, and we are going to explore the Leaky Cauldron. You may have visited this place, but that was to receive your items you needed for entry, same for Diagon Alley. To arrive there, just hover over the icon of the Hogwarts Crest and go down to Wizarding World. NOTE: In the pictures, I have Hogsmeade even though I am Year 2, and that is because I have the Fake Permission Slip. Reducio

Clans And Clubs, and Game Room.
At The Counter
You are where you are, talking to us. You are in the OOC Lets Chat! Thread (unless you got it by Owl). But, let’s explore outside of that, shall we? If you want to go shopping and buy unique things, I recommend that you explore the shops in the ‘At The Counter’ section. I recommend EVERYONE, but some places will let first year students get items for free. Here is a list.
Alice Grimmshaw’s General Store (moodboard is free)
A Splash of Color (all free)
Part Goblin Crafts (Select items free, others half off for first years)
Daydreamer Inc (just owl)
Scarlet’s Custom Aesthetics
Banners, Moodboards, Outfits, Photo Collages
Sunshine Shop (First post and HiO anniversary is free)
The Aesthetic Corner
Crowning Glory
Raven’s Shop
Quote Quarry
Rachel’s Randoms
Fanasty Creators (special deal 5 sickles)
✵ Kerr & Co. Banner Boutique ✵
There are more, so get looking! Have fun finding shops that will offer it, but also consider the shops that don’t offer it, as they might be amazing as well!


Also, a very helpful coding and designing guide by Winnie Harper, is found at Winnie’s Tutorials and it comes in parts.

Clans and Clubs Want to create a club for others to join? Create it, then register the club info here. Guidelines Explore the list of clubs here, and have fun with it! Games Room Follow these rules for the Game Room, and you will be set to play ANY games on here. Diagon Alley Welcome to Diagon Alley! Did you tap that specific brick on the wall to get here? Did you travel by Floo Powder? The steps are the same as it was for Leaky Cauldron and Hogwarts. There isn’t too much to cover, but I will say, you can thread in any shop, including Ollivander, but you can’t get a second wand. Ministry of Magic You travelled to the Ministry of Magic, but yet, it is filled with offices and courtrooms. Entrance to the Ministry of Magic is the same as the entrance to Leaky Cauldron, Hogwarts, Diagon Alley, London, and Hogsmeade. London Did you ever leave for Hogwarts? This is the location of Kings Cross Station, Platform 9 ¾ and the London Quidditch Station. But if you look closer, there are several different locations to go, one is not in London at all. City of London, City of Westminster, West London, East London, and Elsewhere. Hogsmeade I am not going to spoil your fun by telling the secrets that only Third Years and Fake Permission Slip users know about Hogsmeade. But I will say, Butterbeer is for sale here. Have more questions? Owl me! Just click THIS. But don’t forget, everyone is available and is willing to help. But I would ask a member of staff, such as a Prefect, Professor, or the Headmaster, for assistance.
