Welcome to the student driven notice board, just especially for Hufflepuffs: The Hufflepuff Herald! The Herald is a notice board that is updated on a regular basis containing any and all information from the date and time of Quidditch tryouts/practices, classes going on in the school, homework, etc. By keeping you informed, it offers us the chance to gain the most house points in a term!
However, posting in here is restricted to the Hufflepuff Prefects and Quidditch Captain ONLY. If you wish to submit something for the Herald, then you must PM one of them or your Head of House (me!). This is the 17th of the Herald and your current editors are ___. |

Fall of 2072 (IC-wise) Welcome to Hufflepuff!
We would like to give our newest additions to Hufflepuff a warm welcome and hope you're enjoying yourselves so far! Congratulations on being sorted into our house of gold and black, we hope you're loving it and if not we assure you Hufflepuff and all it's members will grow on you before you realize it.
Welcome back to the older students as well, please make sure to try setting a good example not only for the first years but on how a true Hufflepuff should present our house. In other words Hogwarts is not a zoo, refrain from acting like monkeys outside of the privacy of the common room lounge.
As you should now be aware, there is no Quidditch to take part in this term. Instead we are welcoming our friends from Durmstrang and Beauxbaton to take part in the TriWizard Tournament. Please make them all feel at home, and if you are of age and entering the competition yourself- GOOD LUCK! The Herald's History The Hufflepuff Herald is your number one source of information concerning everything school-related. This is the 16th edition of the Herald, which has switched hands several times: Nabiya MacPherson, Raymond Luxury-Yacht, Evy Abagnale, Evan Cassels, Evzen Ferez, Caitlin White, Amelia Rose, Savannah Mae, Seth Paton, Kayla Winters, Dominic Denton, Tamzin Wood, Kaika Lockhart, Torin Kane and Miranda BelCanto have all been editors of the Herald. Your current editors are Sarah Griffin (MeredithRodneyMcKay), Cedric Leone (Wenzlebug) and Lori Bristol (Shanners). Helpful and Fun Links What in Merlin's Beard . . . ? (Term 26) Been a little absent or feeling as though you've missed something? Not sure what's going on around the school? Here's where you can get caught up as well as post things having to do what's been happening here in Hogwarts this term! Top Five Students Sent in you're homework and wondering how many points you've earned for your house? Or maybe your curious to see whose on the top five students list? Here's the place for you. Hogwarts, A History This website holds organized information about both current and retired staff alike, along with summaries from previous term plot-lines and past events you may find useful to know. SS Hogwarts RPG Archive This section of the RPG is where old threads and lessons have been placed from previous terms; please note that not everything from past terms were saved, the threads that were placed there are important in someway. Hogwarts School FAQ Find Sorting and Term Information, General School FAQ and Role Playing in the School info here. How to: Create a Character This thread holds tips and advice other members have shared in their opinion on how to start and develop a character. There's no right or wrong ways, just friendly suggestions for those who wish to see how others create their character(s). Question Thread Here's where you can ask any questions related to the RPG School you may be pondering over; whether it be a staff member or student, someone will answer your question. OOC Suggestion Box This forum is where you can make any suggestions you have to improve the school RPG. Please check the other threads that are already there before creating a new one, in case you're idea has already been suggested. Remember everyone has their own opinions and be respectful of that while discussing. SS Hogwarts Haven Where SS Hogwarts RPG fans can gather to chat about the school, professors and students (in a respectful manner, of course). There's also several other things, such as character bio's, games, school related graphics and more. -- For those who aren't in the FC, you won't be able to see this place. However, we encourage you to join! Go to 'User CP' towards the top of your screen, then scrolling down to the 'Miscellaneous' section you'll see 'Group Memberships' click that then find 'School RPG Addicts' and there you go! SS Board Rules All SS rules apply everywhere and anywhere you go around the site. I'm sure you've all read them before, make sure to keep them in mind at all times. (OOC) F.A.Q. Where can I find my member number?
You can find your member number by clicking on your username to view your profile, and then by looking at the number at the end of the link. For example, mine would be 92091. What year are we supposed to be in?
It's currently the year of 2072-73. Do I have to do the homework and attend classes?
No, it is not mandatory. However, if you want to earn house points for Hufflepuff, completing homework and participating in the classes is the best way to do it. What does OOC mean?
OOC means ''Out Of Character'', while IC means ''In Character''. How can I get involved in the school story? I feel so out of everything.
There are so many ways to get your character involved in the RPG! The best ways are having them join the Quidditch team, participate in the classes, and meet other students! Also, if you're confused about what's going on in the school's plot line, take a look at Hogwarts, A History; it should help answer a lot of your questions. Is there a Head Boy and Girl? Are there Prefects?
Indeed there is! They are Oliver Greenwood (noodles) and Sarah Griffin (MeredithRodneyMcKay) and can be identified by a Head Boy and Girl Tag, respectively, under their usernames.
In addition, there are still two Prefects for each house, and they will be designated by a Prefect's Badge under their username.
If you have any other questions feel free to PM myself, Wenz (Wenzlebug), Shannon (Shanners) or our lovely HoH (Tailzerr). You can also go to Question Thread as well. Classroom Tips 1. Respect your teachers and classmates. 2. If you come online while the class is already going on, do not announce that you are late. Simply act like your character’s been there the whole time, otherwise teachers will deduct points from our house. 3. If you’ve got to leave before the end of the lesson, do not announce it. 4. Unnecessary chatting in the classroom will not be tolerated. 5. Keep OOC comments to a minimum. 6. When the teacher asks a question, feel free to raise your hand and offer an answer. The quickest answers as well as the most creative answers can be rewarded with house points. 7. Please be patient if the professor doesn’t answer you straight away. We all live in different timezones and have other responsibilities in real life, so it is possible the teacher had to leave for a few minutes/hours. 8. Be creative and have fun!

If you encounter any questions regarding the assignments, feel free to PM myself (Shanners), Sarah (MeredithRodneyMcKay), Wenz (Wenzlebug) or the Professor of who assigned the homework. Extras Hogwarts Grounds: Our dear Groundskeeper Masterson has a lot on his mind lately. Make sure to keep an eye on these hot spots for any volunteers he might be looking to lend a hand or two or four in doing some light chores around the grounds. The Student Gardens: Professor Dodson likes the student gardens well maintained... Have a knack for Herbology? Then why not offer your assistance in helping to ensure the plants are well nourished? Hogwarts Library: Perhaps you are one who enjoys the books and spends way too much time inside reading/studying. If this is you, then try offering out your assistance to reshelving/organizing books to Madame Donovan.
Find anyplace else that you think would be good to add to this 'extra' list for Badgers to know? Please send a PM to one (or both) of your House Prefects, or Head Girl. Quidditch
If you hadn't heard yet, from our dear Headmaster's Start of Term Speech, or among your fellow students, there will be NO Quidditch this term. In it's place, there shall be The Triwizard Tournament. TriWizard Tournament
The champions have been announced, for the three schools competing and they are, as follows: Hogwarts:
Raiden Kururugi, Cameron Caddock, Duncan Fletcher and Miles Vorkosigan. Beauxbatons:
Brielle Lambert, Monique Bernard, Noel Laurent and Jermaine Rousseau. Durmstrang:
Danika Malik, Aleksandra Miroslav, Vladimir Petrov and Nikolai Ognian. House Points Gryffindor: -3 Hufflepuff: -5 Ravenclaw: -15 Slytherin: 0 Prefect's Note
A new term has started, and for many people it's their last, and many more their first. Whether you're a first year, or a seventh year, or any other year in between; welcome/welcome back! Personally, I'm going to tell you now, that I think that Hufflepuff is the best house, because it has me and without Quidditch this term, we evidently try to win the House Point cup. Already we're in minuses, but we have an entire year to get more points. So, do your homework, be good in classes, just be good in general!
On another note, I'd like you all to recognise that we have two of our visiting students staying with us. Please welcome Nikolai [of Durmstrang] and Brielle [of Beauxbatons] into the House of Hufflepuff, and treat them how you treat your other housemates. They might be getting lost every now and again, so point them in the right direction. Prefect Lorelai Bristol. ♥ PS, also, any glitter needs, come to me. I have endless supplies. Love to all.[/QUOTE]
