christmas at hogwarts
john williams
overview.
Another fall semester at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry has come to a close.
Many witches and wizards, including Hogwarts staff, will now board the Hogwarts Express train back to London to visit their families for the winter holiday. The number of students and professors wandering the great halls will dwindle, but this does not diminish the holiday cheer in the slightest. Only those who remain at Hogwarts for the winter break know and understand just how special the castle truly becomes.
Festoons of holly and mistletoe hang all around the walls within the Great Hall, and no less than twelve towering Christmas trees stand around the room, some sparkling with tiny icicles, some glittering with hundreds of candles. The dining table offers dozens of fat, roasted turkeys, chickens, and hams. Mountains of mashed potatoes and a fountain of thick gravy. Food and joy as far as the eyes can see. It will truly be a unique and unforgettable sight to behold for those lucky enough to remain at Hogwarts this year.

gryffindor
0/3
One of the four Hogwarts houses, Gryffindor was founded by Godric Gryffindor and favours students who possess characteristics such as courage, bravery and determination. The house colours are scarlet and gold, and the emblematic animal is a lion, which decorates the walls of the Gryffindor common room.
hufflepuff
0/3
One of the four Hogwarts houses, Hufflepuff was founded by Helga Hufflepuff who valued hard work, patience, loyalty and fairness over any particular aptitude in any of her students. The house's colours are black and yellow and its emblem a badger. These colours decorate the walls of Hufflepuff's underground common room, which features cosy burrow-like rooms, resembling a badger's sett.
ravenclaw
0/3
Ravenclaw is one of four Hogwarts houses and prized students whose focus is learning, wit and wisdom. This reflected the nature of their founder, Rowena Ravenclaw who was known to be a woman of remarkable diligence and intelligence. The Ravenclaw common room is decorated with the house colours of blue and bronze along with their eagle emblem.
slytherin
0/3
Slytherin was one of the four Hogwarts houses and is characterised by its silver and green colours and serpent emblem. The Slytherin common room is located in the castle's dungeons. Founded by Salazar Slytherin, the students sent to Slytherin are representative of his preference for characters defined by cunning, pride and ambition.
rules
rules.
rule one.
Roleplayers must be 18+ to join. This roleplay will require everyone involved to join a Discord server for socializing, plotting, and announcements. There will be designated channels for updates, absence notices, plotting, post notifications, and so on. I will contact you through Discord for any questions or concerns.
rule two.
There is no strict word count requirement, but this is not a roleplay for one-liners. Please provide your writing partners with enough content to write their own posts in response. Each scene will have designated posting orders for posting groups of 2-4. This means that everyone will have an individual deadline of seven days to post once it is their turn in the posting order within their respective groups.
rule three.
All characters will be seventh years and at least 17-years-old. This is canonically the adult age in the lore, but you are welcome to make your character 18 so long as their birthday is after the 1st of September. Characters of all sexual orientations, gender expressions, cultural backgrounds, etc. are more than welcome. No canon characters or families. Please help me in creating a diverse cast of characters. There will be a select number of magical traits available for people to claim. I will not be accepting anything other than what I list in the CS thread.
rule four.
The character limit will be one at the start, but I will likely open it up to two later on. We will be using real models and actors for face claims. I strongly advise avoiding the use of any A-list actors and celebrities to avoid character bias. No social media influencers will be accepted as a face claim unless they have a modeling contract. Given that this intended to be a fun, lighthearted holiday roleplay, the CS will be simple and will not require an extensive backstory. Please provide the information I require. Placeholders will be deleted after 48 hours to avoid any houses or magical traits being "reserved" for long periods of time without a proper CS.
