These are activities that are driven by staff, usually small activities or "errands" (hence the name) such as cleaning up the library, maybe celebrating pride month, etc. It really varies. Usually there is a prompt of some sort and some small reward like house points or chocolate frogs or a small amount of money. Not a lot, just something because it is nice to have things.

Just to add to this, here is a link explaining the concept. If you're interested in participating, I would suggest subscribing to this forum so that you don't miss any updates, or to follow the Sitewide Announcements and Updates thread and subscribe to that. FAQ regarding errands can be found here, feel free to ask any questions that come up regarding this topic there as well.

Could the elsewhere forum be ANYWHERE in the world? Like could it serve as China, or Greece, or the Swiss alps?

Hi, Tina! Based on what I’ve gathered, yes! A lot of people use it as home, if theirs isn’t somewhere already listed. Staff can correct me if that’s wrong, but that’s what I assume!

Yes! I use it frequently to RP my iNPC at her home in South America or when Sage is in Kent.

Ok thank you!

Out of curiousity, what would happen in these senarios:
1. if your pc/inpc gets detention but doesn't show up
2. If your pc/inpc gets detention, shows up, but then sneaks out when nobody's paying attention

Just to know
How can I get pets? I have mentioned that I have an Owl in my ency... Is that all?

You can only obtain pets through the pet system we have on-site. Once you have enough galleons, you can select/purchase a pet, write a roleplay in the Magical Menagerie, and the pet will be displayed on your profile. You cannot roleplay having a pet without going through this process, so please remove any mention of a pet owl from your encyclopedia, unless the pet is staying home from Hogwarts.
