Ye Olde Death Eater Code of Conduct
Welcome to Potter’s Army

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.

I'm not going to beat around the bush. Being a Death Eater on a Harry Potter RPG is a sought after position. On some boards, they make you audition for the privilege. So in accordance with that, we should be upholding a high standard of RP.

That doesn't mean I'm going to read through everyone's posts and give creative criticism. It just means I'd like it if you check the Malfoy Manor forum whenever you get on the board. I'd like it if your Death Eater character had as much of a private life as your student character. Feel free to run threads in the Manor, and plot non-battle threads with the Order members occasionally, because they're just as bored as us, which is why they're so keen on "battling" all the time.

If you are in an attack thread, make sure you don't let your ego get in the way of your character. Unfortunately, it happens to everyone and it happened to me the other day. So I think we should make a loose rule that if you're fighting someone who's about as powerful as your character, then every third spell or so should hit. You don't have to stick to it religiously (especially if the spell that's about to hit would kill your character), but keep it in mind as a guide if you need to.

Also remember, if your character is a student, chances are they're weaker than most of the Order members, even if they do know dark magic. Lucius' stance on the student members of the Death Eaters is that they shouldn't be going into battle, just so you know. You have a metaphorical escape route. Whether you do or don't fight is entirely up to you.

If there's anything you'd like to add, please feel free to post it below.

You know what else? It's nice, if you're in a fighting thread, to footnote it with which spells you used and what their effects are so your opponent doesn't have to spend time looking it up on the Lexicon or in the Potter's Army spell list. After all, you probably just did that yourself and have the effects right in front of you anyway.
