Firstly, sorry about all the questions I've been asking lately. Secondly, I'm recoding my ency. If I wanted to change the trunk post, how would I do that? I'm aware that there is an Encyclopedia Update Thread, but I'm worried that it would be a waste of time HiO's hardworking staff to simply recode a post without actually adding any new spells or abilities. I would, of course, provide the new code I want for the trunk, so perhaps it wouldn't be too much work?? Thanks in advance.

Also one thing to note for trunk coding, they do not accept any trunk coding that have tables in them because they tend to break the code for trunks. In other words, your code for your trunk can't say [ table ] in the code. Or they won't accept it!

Okay. Would something like this work?

As far as I can see that adheres to the guidelines. An Index member might notice something I missed, but I *think* it looks ok

Yup! That's the code I use too and it doesn't have any tables.

I just looked at your ency and I have to say it's pretty cool.

I'm applying for the wandmaker ability and since my character is Muggle born, I can't have a member of the family make her a wand. So is it possible for Lucy to have bought a wand and let it on her desk one after noon and her 2 years old brother would find it and accidentally break it in two? If not I have another scenario in mind.

Sure, it can be broken by physical force!

Yes that is fine. You do not need to have a family member make her a wand. Your character can gain it through other means such as buying a new wand, finding a random wand etc.

I have a question about the Uagadou lore:
1. It says "On the 1st January every year, every ten year old witch or wizard in the continent receives their Dream Messenger with a notification of their selection to start in the coming academic year. "
Does the school year also begin on September 1st like at Hogwarts?
If so, the kid needs to be 10 before January 1st of the school year they are starting, right?
Example, they are born on December 31, 2010, they were 10 years old on December 31, 2020 and got their dream messenger on January 1, 2021. Then they would have started the school year of 2021/2022 as 1st year. Is that correct?

Another question relating to Uagadou:
2. It also says "As there are many small wizardry schools in the area, students now have to 'accept' their offer within that calendar year in order to formalise their offer. "
So, does that mean that if not accepted within that calendar year, one can not attend Uagadou anymore? Or would it be possible later on as well?
This question arose during the writing of the backstory I am crafting and I am unsure whether I could let the mother attend only from age 15 after her (grand)parents die.

Can students cast spells out of Hogwarts (eg. at home) if I say that a magical tutor or parent was supervising them?
