Deadly Plague Spreads Through Hogwarts:
Not much is known about this ancient plague, though some theorize it was purposely created. Reports speculate that the Death Eaters plot to eliminate all magical forces of the world, beginning with Hogwarts School, in an effort to gain power, but is this really the case?
Sources report the current Order Leader, Karis Kaotic, might also be involved. Nasty rumor or cold, hard truth? Could our good girl have finally snapped? And if the rumors are true...is she being controlled by the Death Eater leader, Katarina Summers?
Well the Daily Prophet has the dirty truth! In an 'off the record' interview with the Minister of Magic (Off the record, yes. But we're the Daily Prophet! We do whatever we want!), it was divulged to the Daily Prophet that Katarina Summers and Karis Kaotic have been spotted on multiple occasions lurking about Knockturn Alley carrying dark bags of what are believed to be ingredients.
Ingredients to make a delicious pumpkin pie, or to create a leathal weapon strong enough to eliminate the competition? You be the judge. But my money is on the second. Watch out, Carrie Masters! Those girls just might be after your title!
Of course, the Minister is convinced there is no danger.
"We do not believe there is anything to worry about," the Minister said late Saturday night when the first outbreak was reported. "Stiff joints and headaches aren't enough to diagnose a plague. The Ministry is dealing with no more than an outbreak of the flu! We have Aurors keeping a close eye on Miss Summers and Miss Kaotic, as well. So rest assured, if any mischief were afoot, we'd catch it first!"
Ha! Flu, indeed.
October-December is:
Site-Wide Plot Month!
Please read the new section of the sidebar or the announcement for the "Daily Prophet" article!
Katarina Summers and Karis Kaotic are taking over as the evil on HOS for the next couple of months. Because of some spell fluke both of them have decided to kill off everyone so that they will be in charge. This includes both of their followers. Death Eaters and Order members are encouraged to work together during these couple months to help stop Karis and Katarina from destroying both ways of life. No longer is it about Mudbloods and Muggles vs. Pureblood supremacy. It is about staying alive and saving the world.
Members will receive PMs randomly if they have gotten the virus via Karis Kaotic. If you get a PM just follow the directions and enjoy!
If you have questions about the plot please PM Karis Kaotic (zanna).

Name: Emilia Albridge Username: ldymidnite House: Hufflepuff Tell us a little about your character: I grew up in Wammy's Orphanage and since i was there i was shunned and/or bullied by the other girls. My best friend there, well, he left for "boarding school". Black hair, cerulean eyes; I can't fully trust someone, i'm reserved too. Since you've joined how have you been treated on the site? Perfectly!! i made a friend just by requesting a graphic; i've worked up the gut to ask a person to RP with me; and i once got randomly PMed to RP with someone. When it comes to Role Playing what do you think your weaknesses might be? How about your strengths? uhh... well i know my weakness lies in the fact that i can't stick to my plan/plot-thingy. If i am quietly reserved, why would i randomly meet a person and actually stay for conversation? My Strengths, you say?? TONE! tone and description! name an object and where it is, i can give several ways to describe it!

Name: Rashelle Burrow Username: tobizumaki House: Gryffindor Tell us a little about your character: Rashelle Burrow is half-blood, and a tough chick who's rebelious and her father actually approves, whereas her mother, who's a witch, doesn't. Her father thinks she's at boot camp and her mother didn't even want her in hogwarts, but Rashelle wanted to no matter what it took. Since you've joined how have you been treated on the site? At first I tried finding open messages to join in, but then It never went for a long time. I would ask people to make a rp with me, but they either never respond to me or to my rping, which makes me think why people don't talk to me. I only have one friend here, and so far the only thing i've been doing is making siggies and avvies for everyone. When it comes to Role Playing what do you think your weaknesses might be? How about your strengths? I'm not really sure, but I think it's my grammer and the way I make my character alive. A strength I have is that I almost never misspell. .-.

Name: Alexis Aslan Username: alexisaslan777 House: Ravenclaw Tell us a little about your character: Alexis is a pureblood witch. Her parents are both part of the Order of the Phoenix, and her mother is an Auror Member. Alexis wants to learn as much as she can about DADA, Divination, and Potions. She eventually wants to become an Auror herself, or work for the Order of the Phoenix. Since you've joined how have you been treated on the site? I haven't been welcomed really. I had to reach out to others to be welcomed. When it comes to Role Playing what do you think your weaknesses might be? How about your strengths? I haven't RP'd before but I know what it is. I would like to learn more about it and techniques about it. I want to excell in this site and achieve what my character wants to achieve.

"Fighting them is like fighting a many-headed monster, which, each time a neck is severed, sprouts a head even fiercer and cleverer than before. You are fighting that which is unfixed, mutating, indestructible. Your defences must therefore be as flexible and inventive as the arts you seek to undo." ~Snape 1st DADA Class!~

Name: Aurora Poure (it was supposed to be Aurora Black... but since there are SO many Blacks... I decided to go for something a little more original.
Username: aurorapoure
House: Slytherin
Tell us a little about your character: Aurora is a decent person, or at least she tries to be. She comes from a Pureblood linage, that have all been in Slytherin, but they are decent people as well. The Poure's don't really care about muggles or muggleborns of the sort, they are indifferent towards them. They neither like or dislike them. Aurora however, remains bitter towards Muggles and Muggleborns, due to a mishap with her ex-boyfriend who was a muggleborn, Aurora clearly isn't over that. One great thing about Aurora is that once her loyalty is gained, it's there to stay. Aurora is loyal to a fault, some people claim that it's a personality default, but Aurora doesn't think so.
Since you've joined how have you been treated on the site? Well! Seriously I love this site. I was on another Role Playing Site. It was a Marauder Role play... and I swear they treated Newbie's like crap. Clearly I don't post their anymore... they are too full of themselves. Not here though... at least not yet.
When it comes to Role Playing what do you think your weaknesses might be? How about your strengths? My weakness would probably be grammar and word count. Right now, I average about 280-350 words per post, and 500-600 on the starting post... I don't know if that's good or not. Hopefully the mentor person can help me with that!

Name: Wyatt Halliwell Username:wyatthalliwell House:S Tell us a little about your character: Wyatt is a very dark and gloomy person, and he absolutley hates Gryffindors. He always jinxes them or curses them. Wyatt was bron in San Franscisco, in a Victorian Manor. He then moved to Australia, then got the letter from Hogwarts. He then moved to Hogwarts, leaving his parents behind. Since you've joined how have you been treated on the site? Very nicely. I have had some meany mods annoy me, but that is all. When it comes to Role Playing what do you think your weaknesses might be? How about your strengths? Well my weakness is detail and length. I really need to work on those two things. My strenght is punctuation. I am very good with grammar and spelling. I do get mixed up with typing words because I am very fast typer.

Wyatt, for the sake of our Moderators and Crew, could you please go into detail about how those Mods were impolite to you and who they were so that we may fix the problem? It'd be very helpful. Otherwise, this problem will go un-fixed and could possibly happen again. We'd like to avoid that if at all possible. Thanks.

Name: Marissa Laura Coyle Username: someone House: Hufflepuff Tell us a little about your character: She was raised a Slytherin up until the age of seven. At that age her father died and her mother, distraught, put Marissa up for adoption before disappearing. Marissa was taken in by a Hufflepuff family. A poor Hufflepuff family, with nothing to offer but knowledge and love. Marissa adapted slowly, her heart turned more Hufflepuff than Slytherin, that was why she was placed in the house of Hufflepuff. She has looked for her father numerous times when she was 7/8, she soon after gave up. Now, her Slytherin side is kicking in, without her Hufflepuff family around. She can get quite rebellious, obnoxious and rude at times. She is a pure blood. Since you've joined how have you been treated on the site? Not at all really... no one has talked to me..., but I suppose it must be hard, there are a lot of new people. I am a bit scared to talk to people, they have their own lives, that is why I am coming here. When it comes to Role Playing what do you think your weaknesses might be? How about your strengths? My weakness would be my creativity and lack of vocabulary. My strength... I could talk for ages? I don't know if that is a strength...

Name:Neil Stoughton Username:william House:Ravenclaw Tell us a little about your character:I am a muggle born, first wizard in my family.I have a distant grand Aunt who is a witch, apart from that nothing else I have decided till yet. Since you've joined how have you been treated on the site? It is okay. I mean there are too many newbie in the site that it is hard for Mods to get to know you. However i have asked a few members to Rp with me and they were politely agreed to do so( Thanks chace). People and Mods seem nice. Cordelia was ready to help me at once and I should thank her once again. I hope I have a wonderful time here. When it comes to Role Playing what do you think your weaknesses might be?

Name: Erin Miller Username: wonderfulworld House: Ravenclaw Tell us a little about your character: Erin is a muggle-born, she didn't know anything about the wizarding world but it totally up for a new challenge. She grew up in the states, surrounded constantly by her friends, who became her family since both of her parents died in a car accident when she was 8 years old. She didn't have any family left but somehow she managed to escape the orphanage and live with one of her best friends. But since she arrived, she looked forward to learning anything and everything she could. Since you've joined how have you been treated on the site? So far so good, just joined so I don't know. When it comes to Role Playing what do you think your weaknesses might be? How about your strengths? Haven't really RPd before and am looking forward to different techniques and getting some helpful pointers.
