Students: Important Reminder & Information

Students

If you are planning on being a student, there are a few things you'll need to know while filling out your profile. First, if you're going to be a canon student, please make sure to put the correct age of your character. Remember, we're starting our story during the summer of 1999 (Harry Potter would have just turned 19) If you're not too sure what age or year that makes your character, we have put the year each canon student was in for the 1996 term at Hogwarts in the Canon Character List, so that should help you out.

If you're planning on creating your own character, you should take a look at the master character list, to determine what year and age to make your own character. While for the most part we will allow you to choose your own age and year, we don't want everyone to be a Senior or Freshman. And we do want to try to keep the years as even as possible. So while you may seek to make your character a senior, you may be asked to change that, depending on year needs. This is just a little helpful hint and a reminder to keep these things in mind when creating your character profiles.

In order to make things easy, we will allow you to choose your own age and year. However, it will work on a first come, first serve basis (with the exception of canons, who have to be in a certain year for obvious reasons)
