All species are listed here (abilities are listed below with their own requirements). You may claim a species only when applying. If you want to have it for your character afterward, you cannot, as that wouldn't make sense to suddenly be a Veela, for example, when you weren't before.

However, being turned into a werewolf or vampire via roleplay is acceptable at any time. Simply link to the roleplaying thread where it happened.

Please note that there are some natural abilities (Metamorphmagus, Seer, etc.) that aren't necessarily 'species', but are natural abilities that cannot be learned and therefore are in this section, as the claims for them go the same as the species (werewolf, vampire, etc.).

We have limits because it's not realistic for there to be so many special species and abilities. There were probably only 2-3% of the book characters with them, so the fact that we allow 28% of our characters to have them is lenient enough. Also, to be fair to the other writers, any writer may only possess up to five species/abilities listed here (not five characters - so if you have one character who has 3, that counts as 3/5).

If you've been accepted within the last seven (7) days, you may sign up for an ability. If you've been here for a while, though, I'm sorry, but you can't. It wouldn't make any sense if suddenly had a power and never did before. However, you may begin training for an ability at any point in time.

Also, if your name isn't here and it says it in your profile that you have an ability, please reply here. However, not everyone will be accepted.

If you are a student and want to be trained in an ability, you will need to get Eliza's permission if your mentor will be a faculty member. If you are secretly learning it out of school on holidays, you won't need Eliza's permission. However, it will take longer (not before graduation). At the moment, Eliza will not accept Legilimency training without very good reason, as that is an offensive and intrusive ability, while Occlumency is strictly a defensive ability and much more encouraged.

The year beside training is when they will be finished. So 2022/2023 means that at around Sept 2022, we will adjust that they have finished their training.

Whether you are a student or an adult, you will need a mentor. They can be NPC, but it's always more fun if it's someone to write with. Feel free to request this plot from someone who already has the same ability.

Some people are rather exceptional at something. But only a select few are a prodigy. One in 5 million, actually. Which would round out to being 0.12% of the wizarding world in the UK which means no one can be this. However, as we already have a few, we see that we need to put a limit so that it's realistic. Very few characters can be a prodigy. But more can be gifted.

Please note that an admin will look over your application and posts to determine if they are a Prodigy or Gifted and their say is final. You must apply for this when you create your character as this is something a character is born with, not something developed. Each writer may only have 1 character who is a prodigy or gifted (not one of each).

NOTE: There are many extremely talented people in this world who are not prodigies or gifted. This is not necessary to make an intelligent or skilled character.

PRODIGY -- This is someone who is absolutely one in a million. Their skills and abilities come at a very early age. 'Exceptional' doesn't even cover it. No one else can really compare. No one will come along with their natural skills and abilities for another 50 years or even more. Ex. Mozart, Harry Potter.

GIFTED -- This is someone who is rather exceptional at a skill or subject and always have been. They aren't just great at it, they are really one of the best at their subject most people have ever seen. There won't be another person like them for at least another 20 years. Example: Hermione, Dumbledore.

Please note that you cannot have a skill/ability that is too close to another one to get around the timing rule.
