We are happy to have you as a member of our site and hope you enjoy your visit here.If you are a new member read this following message to get started and what you need to do and know before applying for a character.
If you are a current member with a new account, welcome back. I look forward to seeing your application for your new character.
Getting Started Guide
1) Rules and Information
The first thing you need to do upon joining our site is reading our Rules and Information thread. These have to be read and by creating your application for your character you are agreeing to these rules. Also read what is in this message for further useful information.
It is also recommend you read the Plot Information thread which explains why the site is slightly AU (Alternate Universe), especially if you did not come on Hogwarts On The Web, where this site is continuing on from.
2) Which Character?
If you wish to take on a canon character, Which we would prefer at first if it is possible, please take a look at our Canon Characters List to see which ones are available. If you wish to make a original character, please look at our Detailed Membership Statistics To make sure we don't have enough Gryffindors for that year or too many Aurors etc.
3) Creating & Applying for Character
When you know the character you want and have checked it's available, please head to our Pending Applications to create your character profile. Both the Student and Adult applications can be found there, copy and paste the code from the second posts and start a new thread. Please add > (WIP) < at the end of your thread subject until your application has been finished. So we know when to review it. If there are any problems with your application we will PM you about them, the same goes for when you are approved.
4) Wait Patiently
Please be patience as when your application is finished we could take around 48 hours to read and approve. Once this is done, or while you are waiting. Feel Free to Claim a Celebrity Face For your character, even if you are applying for a canon we still need you to claim. You can not post anywhere else other then Information Centre and Applications boards. This includes the cbox, if you do you could find yourself losing credits or house points before you are even approved!
