You asked for it! You got it! TADA!

Here in Gryffindor are doing something a little different. Instead of permanently pairing you off with one another, your Head of House and House Moderator hope that this will help encourage more house unity and bonding among us lions *RAWR*

So how will Big Lions, Little Lions work? This thread will be updated from time to time with RP tasks for you to try and complete with your housemates. The catch? You need to RP with someone who has a character that is either older or younger than your own! Bonus points for wider gaps in years!

Wait...POINTS?! Sorry, these RPs are not for house points...BUT the member(s) with the highest score(s) at the end of the term will get a special prize. What will that prize be? You will just have to sign-up and give this challenge a try to find out!

The point is to HAVE FUN and get to know your housemates better IC and OOC. So branch out! Play with as many different people as possible! BE OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE AND EXPLORE ALL THE POSSIBILITIES!

How to play:

• Make a post in this thread. This is where you edit in all your game play as challenges are accepted and completed.

  on
• Once you complete a challenge, edit into your post the challenge number/subject, a link to where you completed it, and the date completed. You may also put the username of the lion you RPed with along with their year, but it is not entirely necessary
• You may only complete each challenge once
• You may not RP with the same person two times in a row. The point is to meet and play with the rest of your housemates after all!
• You do NOT have to RP with a housemate who is participating in the Big Lion, Little Lion challenge. All Gryffindors count. That includes your Head of House. House Moderator, and House Ghost!
• When new challenges are added either your Head of House or House Moderator will bump the thread. Challenges will be edited into this post for easy viewing.
• Each challenge will be worth a certain amount of points, but your Head of House and House Moderator may award bonus points for various SECRET reasons that include RPs that are 'especially Gryffindor-esque'.
• "Sign-ups" will never close, so you can jump in and join at any time!

The Challenges:

• CHALLENGE #1 : SPELL-bounding
  Who says learning has to take place exclusively in a classroom? Grab a Gryffindor and work together to hone your magical skills! This can be an older student mentoring a younger, friends discovering a fascinating spell in a textbook that they just HAVE to try out, trying out a new dueling technique in the Dueling Area, or whatever reason you and your RP partner can think up! Just remember that all spells and RP must be SS appropriate...and don't purposely go LOOKING for trouble. Flamsteed has had quite enough of these raging Gryffindor hormones and angst already
• CHALLENGE #2 : Slimey Yet Satisfying!
  Everyone knows that Gryffindors are bold and daring in persona...but what about their palates? For this challenge, grab a fellow Gryffindor and head out to the grounds (or around the castle if you prefer) and RP one of you daring the other to eat one of the creepy crawlies you find there. Bonus points if you can, secretly and without informing the other RPer(s) about this being for a challenge, convince student(s) from another house to eat a bug as well. Even BIGGER bonus points if you convince a staffer to eat one! Even bigger bonus points if you get Professor Flamsteed to eat a bug unknowingly! - Professor Romanos
• CHALLENGE #3 : Sweet Dreams are Made of This
  It's getting to be that time of term where studying for exams and longing for summer can drive a Gryffindor mad. Just how mad? That is in all your capable hands! Grab a lion buddy and start a RP where this phrase "I just had the weirdest dream about you" is used. Everything else is up to you!

So what are you waiting for? Come join the fun and get your ROAR on!
