Obviously, things have been sorted out now. I would bet that you attempted to click on the link before site had time to full process your member status, which can take a couple of minutes after you make your 10th post

1) Is the Hogwarts biography forum a must or just for character building?
2) A part of my background is a family history in the UK which I am claiming again. So I was planning to have an "OLD VAULT" opened in Gringotts but am I too late for that?
3) Another part of my background is a house elf I grew up with after my parents' death. Can I include him in my RP?
4) I was wondering if I could play a legilimens or a parselmouth. If I could, what do I have to do and what would be the limits of these abilities, especially of legilimency?
5) Do I have to RP purchasing my books (due to time constraints)? Also, if I can be a parselmouth can I have a snake as my familiar, thus the pet I am taking to Hogwarts?
Once again, thanks so much in advance.
Hello there! Before I dive into all of these, please keep in mind that outside of maintaining and respecting the Snitchseeker.com rules and guidelines (as well as each RPG forum's respective rules), there is nothing that you
must do for or in the RPG - everything it meant to enrich your experience.
1. Utilizing the biography threads is not a mandatory task, but it is encouraged. People love to read biographies about other characters and it helps enrich the lore here on Snitchseeker. It is also a good way for you to keep track of character details.
2. I am not sure what you mean by 'old vault' exactly, but the Gringotts vault application is open year round without a time limit. You can read more about the process
over here.
3. You may include references to your character's house elf all you wish and even RP him if the situation suits. You cannot, however, RP them in the School RPG forum without explicit permission from the Hogwarts RPG Admin but other RPG areas would be okay.
4. These character traits fall under the category of 'special characters' (
please read more about there here in the FAQ) and require explicit permission from the Hogwarts RPG admin to be played in the school RPG.
5. Again, nothing is absolutely mandatory and you can assume your character has completed their shopping just fine
as for pets, anything other than an owl, cat, rat, toad, or pygmy puff must receive permission from the Hogwarts RPG admin and Care of Magical Creatures professor. Please see
this part of the site FAQ for full details.

As stated above, these things are not mandatory and instead are additional services we provide to enrich your RPG experience here on site. Please see the Gringotts information post linked above for full details. These are all little details that you can utilize however you see fit to your character as well as create RPG opportunities between yourself and other members who have employees at Gringotts and any other shop where currency is used
