What in Merlin's Beard? Term 24 (2070-2071)
 
http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y28...rlinsbeard.jpg



A bit confused about the plot? Housemates talking about a mysterious something going bump in the night? Here's where you can catch up on happenings around the Castle, Diagon Alley, and Hogsmeade -- out of character, of course.

This means that unless your student character heard this stuff from other students or witnessed the actual event, your student character doesn't know about it.

Also, this is a reminder to everyone to only post updates on the school plot here. Please do not post the happenings of your student character in here - that kind of chat goes in the school chat thread.

Have fun!

It seems that someone will take over the position as Headmaster, and someone else will be the new DADA teacher! *gaspeth*

Mr. Duskurk will take the open teaching position, considering he actually does have experience as an educator.

Tommy Duskurk aka Lord Voldemortist and Captain Gaellen Tate :shifty:
Take a looky in here for the rest of the conversation

DH Vixen 12-28-2009 04:07 AM

It seems one of our favorite ex-professors is in some trouble.

Headmaster Tate has spoken!

Quote:

"You are as eloquent as you are good-looking, and that's saying something right there," Tate mumbled, giving Kade the eye roll he deserved. Shut your pie hole? Really? The Ministry was getting letters about that one for sure.

"Good day, Hogwarts students." That was a very promising start right there. "You may have noticed that I am a new face here at Hogwarts. In fact, you probably have noticed a number of new faces. Such is life, que sera sera, and all that. My name is Gaellen Tate, and I am the Headmaster."

He should probably introduce the new professors.

He didn't know the new professors.

"And here..." he gestured wildly to the table. "Here we have our returning staff, who are eager to help you settle back into your routines, and your new professors, who will require your patience and good will. Feel free to drop by their offices any time you seek council, just as I encourage you to drop by mine." Oh. But don't visit Thomas, because he probably bites... could he say that?

Probably not.

"So... anyway. Welcome back, and welcome for the first time to all the little firsties. I know we had a hard time of it last year, but chin up and steel your spine for another good year. They can't all be cake walks, can they? I sincerely doubt anyone will die this year, so that's already a silver lining. And perhaps you'll actually learn something. I occasionally did."

Chipper enough? What was he talking about?

"Can we eat yet?"

And the food appeared.

Maxilocks 01-19-2010 04:05 AM

Something is up in the Headmaster's office.

:shifty:


LilFox06 01-19-2010 11:17 PM

has anyone else noticed those creepy free vouchers? :shifty:

I find this kind of interesting. Duskurk NEEDS to be at Hogwarts? I wonder what this is all about :shifty:

Updates on our former professor

Lezleighd 01-26-2010 03:31 PM

Interesting....
 
Is the Headmaster coming back?

Owl from the Headmaster to the Deputy Headmaster

imaginarynumb3rs 02-16-2010 11:12 PM

After mysteriously disappearing out to the grounds after hours, several students (specifically: Dylan Denver, Jakers Upstead, Tiberius Pryce, Madiison Winloch, Oliver Greenwood, and Miranda BelCanto) were found critically injured.

Earlier, these same students had made trips to the Hog's Head with coupons handed out by teachers who found them in the Staff Room.

And also:

More updates on our former professor.

An interesting conversation in the library.

And then she was gone.

:gasp: Ravenclaw Prefect is now GONE!

demented_death_eater 02-23-2010 02:36 AM

There is a school-wide slumber party happening in the Great Hall complete with plenty of food, Twister, karaoke, a story, and making smores over the fire.

Maxilocks 02-23-2010 07:12 AM

What is this?

:shifty:


CruppieMom89 02-27-2010 04:19 PM

It seems another student has shown up with odd symptoms and injuries. Who will be the next victim?

Struggling to take a breathe, she closed her eyes and fell over the bench.

EDIT 1: Another student turned up in a bad state.

She was only able to see from one eye so she was making a slow go of navigating the entrance hall. Not to mention her GINORMOUS bare feet were hindering her a bit. THe worst thing of all was that she had no clue how she got that way. None at all! Her eye was oozing gunk and her pyjamas were ripped and she was bleeding profusely.

EDIT 2: Headmaster Tate was summoned to the ministry?

Lissy Longbottom 03-01-2010 12:05 AM

The Slytherin prefect has reappeared, and she's definitely not in good shape!

Click meee

CruppieMom89 03-01-2010 02:54 AM

Mina seems to remember a little about what happened when she disappeared.

Luna Laufghudd 03-01-2010 02:14 PM

Another VERY HURT student has been found :(

Lislchen 03-02-2010 06:08 PM

A few students found some interesting stuff near the Forbidden Forest. :shifty:

Ivory found a Slytherin Prefect Badge along with a small piece of torn robes.

Furthermore, Destiny found a very suspicious piece of parchment.

What is this all about? :shifty:

CruppieMom89 03-04-2010 04:10 AM

UH OHS!

Headmaster Tate finally admits to students that something bad is happening. He's thinking about putting the castle on lock down.

Go here to see that specific post. Though I recommend reading back to when Mr. Masterson enters and go forward.

Destiny 03-06-2010 02:55 AM

Hmmmm.

Seems some more shifty things have been found at the Flying lesson.

Jacob found some trash.. Yep, that's trash alright..

Marie found a flask with some initials on it..

Miranda found a piece of parchment that is probably NOT talking about Quidditch..

and

Fia found some bloody robes.

:shifty:

That's what she learned. Hide in the shadows, and you will make it to your destination.

Dressed in her dog pyjamas, she arrived at her destination; the entrance hall, and she was definitely unnoticed. She knew she had to get out of the castle, and it had to be now. With her wand held at her side, Destiny sidled against the wall, making sure no one was about, pushed open the door, and left.

She was gone.

Jump over the Vanishing step,wait for the revolving stairs to come her way, sidestep the creaky steps, slide down the banister a bit on the second floor, and creeping down the final level.

Her small feet light on the floor, she grinned like a Cheshire cat, happy she had worn her jazz flats. Merlin, she barely even heard herself.

Sticking to the shadowy areas, she poked her head through the rungs of the stairs and looked around. As her eyes roved this way and that, her tense body relaxed as they found that there actually wasn't anyone at the bottom of the stairs. About to pull her head back she was furious to discover it appeared she was trapped.

Her head was trapped between the banister rungs. Agh!

After a few minutes of pulling and angling and holding her breath, and sucking in her cheeks and attempting to flatten her ears, she finally had the common sense to look up.

Well, that was new. Harrumphing a little as she lifted her head higher to where the space between the rungs was larger, she looked around suspiciously. Someone had plotted this she was sure, because obviously there was no way that that had been there the whole time. Someone had magicked the rungs to close in on her head thinking to keep her here! She was sure of it!

Extra cautious now, she pressed herself back against the wall, and made her way down in a sideways crab walk. Without even noticing, her body out of its own accord used everything at her disposal to help conceal itself. Her hair was darkening subtly to take the hue of the wall behind her, and she was none the wiser.

Her subconscious mind was recalling the old 'Mission Impossible' song playing in time to her sneakiness. But of course that was only her subconscious because the Ivory that was on the exterior wasn't letting her through.

The exterior Ivory had planned and manipulated her timing to coincide with a suspiciously loose screw on a light fixture on the first floor landing.

It was just a matter of minutes, before gravity itself did short work of the lamp sending it careening down the stairs with a crash, leaving her a distraction and ample time to slip out the front door. Something she did quite easily thanks to her small size.

And with a small breeze of spring night air and the gentle closing of the door she was gone into the night.

Placing a hand on the door she turned to look back down the hall, letting out a breath she didn't realize she was holding. Pushing open the door that lead to the grounds she quickly steped out and was gone.

Leaving the castle? Hmmm :shifty: I wonder what they're up to.

LilFox06 03-08-2010 05:17 AM

and there goes another one

instructions from the headmaster

Lislchen 03-16-2010 05:44 PM

Three of the four missing students have returned to the castle...and they are not in a good condition. :worried:

Destiny and Evelyn in the Entrance Hall.

Arya in the Courtyard and Hallway.

What's going on? :worried:

CruppieMom89 03-16-2010 11:39 PM

*gasp*

What's going on?

Who is this man?

Clickey!

EDIT: The man who brought Cela back with him has made it to the Courtyard and, as of now, looks as though he's planning to enter the castle. eek!

EDIT 2: Jeezum Crow! What is going on?????

She didn't need to do anything...just yet, at least.

She giggled as she watched Raiden and Lina. Silly people!

Time for what exactly, Destiny didn't know. She only followed where her feet took her, and it was the Entrance Hall. At least the blood she and Evelyn had left there from last time was gone, and that was good.

Leaning up against a wall, Destiny drew her wand and folded her arms.

Waiting was annoying.

She looked at the door with a blank expression, all to aware of the presence of the other students but she made no motion to acknowledge them, not yet atleast.

He leaned up against a wall, watching the door, taking in the students around him. Popular place, it seemed, as student after student showed up.

Suddenly, he saw Jake pounce on Raiden and he unholstered his wand... waiting.

"Jake!" she called out, seeing the familiar Hufflepuffs hair and...two more people that well...

"Hey Jake. I found something that might be yours-" she started, holding up a newly polished wand that he might find QUITE familiar. Well that didn't work out so well. The kid went and jumped at the Prefect she recognized.

Eh well, she would just have to wait until he was done having his fun to give him his wand back. Walking over to Destiny, already bored of the little fight, she leaned against the wall and waited like everyone else.
