This plot is where you play yourself if you were to go to Hogwarts, so you play yourself in the Harry Potter World.
You can also make one other character preferably of the opposite sex.
All Cannon Charcters are to Be NPC.
The way we're setting up the ages is I'll be startin in Third Year with the Twins, Paige and Kiz will be first years with Harry, Draco, Ron and Hermione and Lisa can be any year or a teacher.
Also to make it more interesting first years are finding out their animagus forms by pairing up with the older years to make an animagus potion to discover their animal. Also you can play as a werewolf if you feel your character would have been bitten.
This is not set in the original Harry Potter time. This RP is set in modern day, our time right now! Also laptops and iPods DO work at Hogwarts!
As for powers you can add things that might be possible in the wizarding world such as parsletounge, control of an element, seer ablities, astral projection etc but nothing too extreme. Something too extreme would be like superpowers (abilty to stretch, superspeed, telekinetic etc) You can also make your person wiccan or interested in the magic that is Wicca.
