Hi Raffaele,

Your application looks great, there's just one thing we'll need to resolve before we can get you accepted.

You've currently got 3 subaccounts sitting under Jack's parent account and the maximum allowed for a regular member account is 2. You can choose to retire one of your characters, move one of them to a different regular account, or purchase a subscription. If you're retiring, please follow the instructions (linked above). If you're moving one to a new account, please submit a helpdesk ticket stating which character you would like moved and provide a valid email address not already in use on site. If you'd like to purchase a subscription, please follow the instructions here.

Once you've made the required change to your accounts, please flag this below and we'll be more than happy to take another look (there's no need to repost your entire application). Thanks!

Hi Callum, welcome to the site!

Your application looks great and has been accepted!

I just want to flag that if you choose to pursue a storyline in the future where Callum finds any sort of success in finding a cure for his mother's illness, you would likely need to submit a special request for this, as finding a cure for cancer could have the potential to drastically alter the site canon and other people's personal plots as well. Happy to discuss further if needed, feel free to PM me or DM me via Discord (Yas#4887).

Looking forward to seeing Callum in action!

Hi Philippa,

Your application looks great, there's just a couple of things we'll need you to edit before we can get you accepted.

Firstly, you're writing in the present tense in your RP sample. As per the roleplaying rules, we ask that our members write in the third person past tense for most of their writing (excluding things like journals and letters). With that in mind, please could you rewrite your RP sample into the past tense?

Secondly, you've currently got 3 subaccounts sitting under Bracken's parent account and the maximum allowed for a regular member account is 2. You can choose to retire one of your characters, move one of them to a different regular account, or purchase a subscription. If you're retiring, please follow the instructions (linked above). If you're moving one to a new account, please submit a helpdesk ticket stating which character you would like moved and provide a valid email address not already in use on site. If you'd like to purchase a subscription, please follow the instructions here.

Once you've made the required changes to your RP sample and accounts, please repost your entire revised application below and we'll be more than happy to take another look. Thanks!

Hi Aspen,

Your application looks great, there's just one thing I need to check before we can get you accepted. Do you have permission from Jack Greenberg's player to create this character? The character backgrounds/family history are very similar, so I'm assuming that Aspen is Jack's sister!

No need to repost your whole application, if you could just respond to confirm that Jack has given permission for you to create Aspen, we can go ahead and get you accepted. Thanks!

Hi Robert,

Your application looks great, there's just a couple of things to clarify before we get you accepted.

Firstly, if Robert is currently 32, he would have been born in 1935, not 1936. If he was born in 1936, he will currently be 31, not 32.

Secondly, can I just confirm that you have permission from Jack Greenberg's player to create this character? The character backgrounds/family history are very similar, so I'm assuming that Robert is Jack's brother!

No need to repost your whole application, if you could just respond to confirm the correct age/birth year for Robert and that Jack has given permission for you to create Robert, we can go ahead and get you accepted. Thanks!

Hi Disa,

Your application looks good, there's just one thing we'll need you to clarify before we get you accepted.

You have requested sixth year for Disa and put her birthday as October 1950 -- this would make her 16 years old, not 15. If you could confirm that you want her to be 16 and going into sixth year (rather than 15 and going into her fifth year), we can go ahead and accept your application.

No need to repost the whole application, if you could just post below to confirm, that would be great. Thanks!

Hi Jax, welcome to the site!

Your application looks good so far, there’s just a couple of changes we’ll need you to make before we can get you accepted.

Firstly, in your biography, you write:
Quote
His family tried to hide the fact, but once he had gotten older and had accidentally summoned a working pocket watch for his father's birthday, the Ministry got involved. It had taken a lot of talking from his father with the Ministry to convince not punishing Jax, nor send him to Hogwarts. But eventually, they gave in, with explicit instructions that his father teaches him to use and control his magic and to not at any circumstances use it outside the house. He was also required to give a report each week. And so Jax slowly learned how to manipulate his magical powers, the family had to move out in the middle of nowhere and have their lessons in the dead of night to not rouse suspicions.

As per HP canon, children under the age of eleven are exempt from the laws around underage use of magic and the Ministry cannot detect who has performed the magic, only where it was performed. With that in mind, the Ministry would not have gotten involved in Jax’s displays of accidental magic when he was a child, nor would they have punished him for exhibiting signs of magic. Magical children are also permitted to be homeschooled in our canon and weekly reports on progress are not required (although there would likely be some form of review to ensure the child is being schooled to an appropriate standard). If you could edit this section of your biography to remove the references to the Ministry getting involved in Jax’s schooling, this would resolve the issue.

Please could you also remove the line in the next paragraph about the Ministry keeping a watchful eye on Jax, as they would not be doing this unless there was a specific requirement for them to do so.

Secondly, you write in your biography:
Quote
That is, until one night, as he was walking the streets of London by himself, a muggle mugger showed up and stabbed him. Unable to contain his anger and in pain, he had casted a spell at a river nearby and summoned a Water Elemental. It was not soon after that the Ministry had caught wind of it and sent Elena Jangleton. With her help, Jax was able to stop the Water Elemental from causing too much damage and erased the mugger's memory of what had happened that night.

Water Elementals are not present in our canon, so please could you remove all references to this from your biography. You could change this to a different creature in HP canon, for example a Kappa or a Grindylow. You mention that Jax and Elena erased the mugger’s memory, however an Obliviator is typically called in to erase memories of Muggles, and Elena is an Auror — if you could edit this to reflect that an Obliviator would have helped them with this, that would be great.

Thirdly, you write that Jax was instructed to take a Muggle job — the Ministry would not require someone to do this, so please could you edit this to make this Jax’s choice (or perhaps a family member’s suggestion, if Jax wouldn’t choose this by himself) instead.

Fourthly, can you please also confirm that Elena Jangleton’s player is content with the application that you have written, as there is significant powerplay within it.

Once you’ve made the required changes, please repost your entire revised application below, and we’ll be more than happy to take another look. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to PM me or contact me via Discord (Yas
#4887). Thanks!
