welcometo a new month! Time is moving along again. Clue is finishing up soon as a few are getting close to figuring out our who dun it. Term is well into the swing of things with many classes up and running, so if you're interested in getting some grades buttons at the end of term and some easy interaction with many other students, I suggest you check them out. (:

update! The Species/Abilities thread has had a bit of a revamp. Now species are listed separately than abilities because they now have different requirements. Species can only be claimed when applying (or bitten through roleplay, if werewolf or vampire). Abilities in training must now have a mentor and must get Flitwick's permission if they're being trained at school. Anyone currently in training can PM any Mod to get their mentor put in the list. Please note that you must have their permission, however. The descriptions of Occlumens and Legilmens have also been amended - make sure to keep to these rules when in roleplay.

update! Hogwarts has a new NEWT class: Dark Arts Theory. It will be taught by Aaron Lathen. Feel free to read the Daily Prophet for more information. To sign up for the class, simply reply to the Class Sign-Ups in the Registration board.

of the month nominations will be up in the next week or two.

in character events! Quidditch will be in January and May. Another Hogwarts event will occur later in the year. Hogsmeade trip will be in December before end of term.
