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.

Play-by means is the person either an actor or actress is chosen to play your character identity. Emma Watson is taken.

Yeah, and so is Hermione Granger actually.
Look for it in the members. Hermione Granger Weasley.
Guess that it's better for you to change the name into another, create a canon character and edit the application.

Miseria, I think what you saw when you looked at the members was Hermione's name, but it was gray. A gray name means it's either a ghost or inactive. Plus I think this Hermione already reserved the Hermione in the canon claims section. Very Happy

This is a Post-Potter era site so Hermione would roughly be 42/43 depending on the time frame. May I suggest having a look at the Canons List? There are quite a few canons left for taking (:

Okay guys let the girl breath i'll take care of this.

Out of Character Name means your name or alias in real life.
Now moving to in character.

Name: Hermione (Granger) Weasley
Year and Age: 39 (She is a canon here which means she is following the plot by age)
Prefered Houses: Ex, Gryffindor
Play by (any celebrity actress,singer...) in meaning you can choose any that's not already on this list https://www.pottersarmy.net/claims-f149/face-claims-t6640.htm

Apperance:
That one is generally based on celebrity apperance you choose.
General Apperance: Requires a paragraph which is 5,6 lines.So there you can put her hair length, colour, style, eye colour, height, skin, what she likes to wear or doesn't like to wear. You can add something like she has sharp eyes for example just for length sake. And anything else that comes to your mind about how does she look like.

Skills are fine
Weaknesses: Think of some..dunno Wizzarding Chess, a couple of things she doesn't do well
Likes: Well since she is a graduate you can't use so much of school stuff anymore
Dislikes: Don;t know Arrogant people, Draco Malfoy whatever pops onto your mind
General Personalitty: Here you make a full paragraph about what you already wrote or if you want to add something extra say she has explosive character, quick/slow emotions.You can base it on your own personalitty if you can't think of anything.

History (you missed that one)
Family Info: Parents or in this case you can put Ronald Weasley (Housband), Daughter (Rose Weasley) and Son (Hugo Weasley).
Childhood: How did she grow up in 6 lines. You start from when she was born (take your own birth date if you don't know hers) then you can write how she grew up in muggle famlily.that her parents were dentists and whatever fear or love she had in childhood untill she went to Hogwarts.
Hogwarts:You speak how she was at hogwarts what did she do and stuff. That she was the brightest witch of her generation, that she was outstanding at all classes you know the drill. Then you mention her friends Harry and Ron and anyone else..in general what she do or feel during school. You can even describe how she fell in love with Ron and how she missed her last year for going with them to find horcruxes. (6,7 lines again)
Adulthood: Well write what job did she find when she graduated, how her and Ron dated and got married. At what age she got her kids Rose and Hugo. On the end everything you consider it's necessary for us to know about her.Again in 6,7 lines.

I skipped those that you wrote fine because there's no need of correcting them.
For any questions i am still here!

Look pretty same to me apart you changed two, three things for the name and age and original.
Now this is a code you should be using because you missed alot of info.Also i told you to prolong your General Apperance and Personalitty into at least 6 lines.
My advise is to make a new topic because you keep looking at this one which doesn't have right info about what you need.I left you the code down there.
