Welcome to Potter's Army

We have been a Harry Potter Roleplaying site since 2007. If you're an old member we hope you come check out the discord link provided below. And if you're looking for a new roleplaying site, well, we're a little inactive. But every once and a while nostalgia sets in and a few of our alumni members will revisit the old stomping grounds and post together. Remember to stay safe out there. And please feel free to drop a line whenever!

What’s Happening?
Since every few months or so a few of our old members get the inspiration to revisit their old stomping grounds we have decided to keep PA open as a place to revisit old threads and start new ones devoid of any serious overarching plot or setting. Take this time to start any of those really weird threads you never got to make with old friends and make them now! Just remember to come say hello in the chatbox below or in the discord. Links have been provided in the "Comings and Goings" forum as well as the welcome widget above.

Item Name: A computer, a computer charger, headphones, and a tablet
Item Type: It's a computer that actually works in the magical world. Considering electronics don't work near magic. This is awesome.
Creation: my dad made it last year. I wanted to bring my phone. He said nom but tthtten we worked on getting the tablet, computer, charger, and headphomes to work there.
Character Discovery: N/A
Use(s): It's a magical artifact so what does it do? It's electronics in hogwarts! Not actually possible! It's faster than other computers! And you can use one of those tappy screen styluses! But it is hard to start up. It's homemade. So is the internet. And the printing thing in her computer.
Roleplay Sample:
Asia grabs her computer and heads to her first class. Transfigureation.
As soon as she sits down she opens her computer up and powers it on.
"What is that contrapition?"
"A computer. Much more efficent than writting by hand. My hands don't get tired as quick. And I promise not to distract anyone."
"Carry on."
As the class goes on Asia types.
While surfing the internet that is.

Item Name: Invisibility Cloak
Item Type: Clothing
Creation: The original was made by death, or so is believed in the tale of the three brothers however Pansy's is made from demiguise hair weaved with cloth by Madame Malkin.
Character Discovery: Pansy requested that her husband make her one or find her one in some way. Of course any manmade invisibility cloak known apart from the own in ownership of the Potter's fades over time and loses it's ability. Of course Pansy doesn't have the original one, something she still wants from the Potter's of course, but is none the less happy with the cloaks her husband provides her with when it starts to fade, from which he pays Madame Malkin, the expert seamstress, to secretly make for him out of demiguise hair.
Use(s): The invisibility cloak conceals the person wearning it from the sight of others, allowing them to blend into the background as though camouflaged from view. This comes in use to Pansy when she is working because she can get the latest scoop as all she needs to do is slip on the cloak and intrude on people's private conversations, much like how Rita Skeeter did via the skill of being an animagus. One of the disadvantages is that she does need to be silent, making the scratching of a quill beneath the cloak noticeable and could give her away. Because of this she can't always use it in quiet situations. Plus she would need to go away and hide underneath before going to a private scene of some sort and she would have to walk slowly as to not reveal herself and may miss on important information by taking her time to get there - that is of course if she can get into the location. As a result Pansy will only use it when it is necessary to go to such a hassle to scoop a story and so doesn't usually have her cloak in possession unless she is purposefully setting out to investigate. It also is a risk because it could start to fade at any time and whilst she is waiting for another one to be made she can't use it, meaning it doesn't get used as much as one would expect.
The main con with her artifact however is that, because it is not made from death and is manmade, it requires more than the magic that the demiguise hair offers. As a result when worn it essentially feeds on the magic within Pansy draining her of her energy meaning that it can not be worn without having serious consequences - something Madame Malkin warned her of and of course Pansy doesn't want to find out what the devastating effects are in case she dies, is injured in the process (most definitely) or worse: her cover is blown.
Roleplay Sample:
One of her colleagues had beaten her to a story, by complete luck Pansy thought. Anyone could have easily been at St Mungo's the time when Khaat Lupin was taken in after almost being savaged by the rouge werewolf: James Blood. Thankfully Brooks, her colleague, hadn't gotten every detail. To the readers it seemed as though the Prophet was telling them everything, the whole truth. Being a reporter herself Pansy knew differently.

There was a promotion on the line to editor and to Madame Parkinson-Nott it was treasure, lost treasure with an 'x' labelled besides it. Pansy wanted nothing more than to own the Daily Prophet and the step to editor mean't a giant leap towards that. As a result she needed the extra information on what was happening, the mystery that surrounded the Lupins.

After apparating two streets away from St Mungo's, finding the disused store and stepping through the glass window Pansy found herself in the hospital reception area. Now was the difficult part: finding the Lupins. For some the difficult part would be sneaking in unknowns to the Ministers daughter and her many, many, bodyguards but not for Pansy, for the reporter had something the petty peasants could only dream of: an invisibility cloak.

Following the signs for the toilets Pansy slipped into one of the cubicles, turned the lock and extracted the cloak from her bag. It was so sleek, luxurious. Her husband really had out done himself with this one, who knows how much it would have cost. Not that Pansy cared, it was his money, which ironically made it hers. The perks of having a weedy, infatuated, rich worm of a husband.

Leaving the bathroom Pansy began to walk the halls of St Mungo's. They would be here somewhere, most likely a high security room away from the main walkways. If only she had Lupin's medical files. If only. A grin gleamed across her face for she was Pansy Parkinson-Nott and could get whatever she wanted right now.

Heading up a flight of stairs Pansy followed the directions for the directors office, which given the fact Lupin wasn't in any fit state to work, would be empty. How convenient.

Item Name: Yin & Yang
Item Type: Ring Set .
Creation: Crafted from mainly silver, the ring set was created over a two year time frame, one year for one ring and another for the other ring. One was created with an onyx jewel that was set in the center meanwhile the other was created with a pure white opal in the other. The unseen magic of Love was actually 'poured' into the ring set, and grows stronger each time it is passed on to those that have the connection of true love.
Character Discovery: Leven's grandparents had the ring set since they were teenagers, her grandmother having handed over the Onyx ring meanwhile Leven has but does not wear the Opal ring.
Use(s): The ring set was created with the sense of Love, a strange magic that has lasted for many years. The rings sense each other when both are finally worn by a couple that have intense and in love emotions towards each other. The rings allow for the couple to find each other if they ever become separated by a sensation; it also allows for each other to sense the emotion that the other is feeling. It isn't unusual for the other half to become in pain if the other feels some type of physical or mental pain. If the rings do not sense love between the couple, then there will be no sense of longing for sense of needing to find the other half. If one ring is taken from it's original owner or the owner's lover - then it would have a deep burning sensation upon the other.
Roleplay Sample: Her eyebrow raised, curious by the object that rested heavily in her palm. It was pure silver but it seemed to have become dull over the years of being worn; almost to the point of it being considered dark like the rock that was in the center. Her cloudy blue eyes glanced upwards to the aging couple in front of her. Despite the fact that they were only half blood magical, they still retained the youthful glow that some pureblood grandparents would have. "Take it dearie, you'll need it more then us."

Her grandmothers confirming voice made her frown, Leven wasn't expecting trouble in England thus found it to be oddly strange why they'd want her to carry it around with her. But yet.. there was a more comforting feeling that it carried despite it resting in the palm of her hand. As if the two of them would be there in England and in the new school along with her. Leven though was surprised when her grandfather placed another ring off of his bony finger into her hand, right on top of the onyx ring. Instead of a pure black like the onyx, it was a pure white Opal.

Both just grinned slyly despite the haphazard look that they were carrying, as if they couldn't tell what the other was thinking any longer. "You see now, you give that to a good boy, ye hear?" Her grandfather grinned, fully aware of what would happen when his grandbaby found that one special guy in her life. Leven blushed darkly, thrusting on the onyx ring in haste as she said her final goodbyes. Already aware that she just might not want to return back home.

RJ, in the "uses" definition for describing the item, we ask you to give us pros and cons. Please tell me what the cons are of this item. At this point, it does appear to not have many apparent disadvantages for Pansy to use it constantly and indiscriminately. That could potentially make this easy to be used to make her overpowered. Help me here a bit, please?

I have added a few cons with the cloak, hopefully it will be enough as I can't really think of many others. If needs be she doesn't have to have it I just thought it would be an interest quirk to roleplay with every now and again and she could offer it's uses on any death eater missions.

the other thing that came into my head, and this might be a bit weird, is that the original cloak was made by death. since pansy's is basically an "artificial" cloak, and humans would have no way to duplicate the real power in death, perhaps wearing the cloak pulls on the wearer's own life energies and therefore can only be worn for short periods without significant harm to the wearer.

thoughts?

Ooo I like the idea of that, as though it sort of uses magical energy from the wearer?

well, if it wasn't created by magical powers of death, then it has to be powered by mortal energies, which means those energies are temporary and certainly wear out a lot sooner, with far more dire consequences.
