plot drops
#information hub
tidbits of the chaos in hogwarts.
Plot drops are simple: these are school year, storyline-related events that are more easy going and restricted to smaller groups. More plots will be added as the spaces fill up and time passes. These are first come, first serve, and must be done in groups to allow inclusivity.
All of the plots are pretty open-ended, with very little restriction. Of course, you have to work with the guidelines provided in the description below. Think of these as the backbone to your threads, just as plots normally are.
A few guidelines:
» the plots are first come, first serve.
» there must be at least three members per group, and only one group per plot. each section has a separate restriction.
» once the spots have filled up, the admins will add you in a group pm specific to your plot. there, you can discuss the plot any further if you want to add any details with your group members, or if you have any questions regarding the plot.
To reserve a spot, comment down below with this format:
» name // year // plot grouping // plot name
* example: emerald de lisle // fourth // little adventures // the creature in the black lake

weasley's
defence against the dark arts
defence against the dark arts
it's professor ronald weasley's first year teaching, and we're sure a lot of students have questions for him and his experience with fighting alongside harry potter and hermione granger in the second wizarding war.
but while the professor is more than happy to share stories, he is your professor first.
for this class, you are assigned partners or groups to practice deflecting hexes or curses, starting with the bat-bogey hex.
* note: for this plot, you must use the dice room to determine the outcome of your hexes and / or counter spells.
» restriction: fourth years only
» status: closed (5/6)

longbottom's
herbology
herbology
so maybe professor longbottom's a little clumsy, and maybe he hadn't had much sleep the night before, so maybe he was just a bit absent minded that morning. one second he's demonstrating something for the class in one of the greenhouses, the next second, well... the venomous tentaculas make several swipes at him during the lecture.
what are you going to do? just stand there?

slughorn's
potions
potions
once upon a time, when the famous chosen one was a student, professor horace slughorn awarded liquid luck to whoever was able to successfully make the draught of living death.
it is your turn to attempt this. the first person to successfully make one will be awarded one vial of liquid luck.
the brewing instructions are as follows:
» cut up the sophorous bean
» pour in 250 fl.oz. of water and add 5 oz. of African sea salt to the beaker. set the beaker aside after all the water has been added. be very careful not to shake or move the beaker now.
» leave the water and salt to rest for five minutes.
» slowly pour all the water into the cauldron
» with your right hand, hold the cauldron at a slight angle and pour ten drops (20 fl.oz.) of essence of wormwood.
» now with your left hand, hold the cauldron at a sligghtly different angle and pour another ten drops of wormwood essence.
» chop three valerian roots into small squared pieces. after cutting place in a beaker with water. leave it to settle for five minutes. your potion should not be resembling a smooth blackcurrant-coloured liquid.
» carefully pour the sophorous bean's juice into the cauldron.
» add seven drops of the reduced liquid from the beaker; make sure there are no traces or fragments of valerian root.
» stir the potion ten times clockwise; your otion should now be a light shade of lilac.
* note: for this plot, you must use the dice room to determine the success of your potion. here's the catch: you must roll for every ingredient you put in the pot.
** note: you will not have access to the half-blood prince's notes. so this is based on your character's intelligence or luck.

mcgonagall's
transfiguration
transfiguration
the professor was nowhere to be seen by the time you got to class, so the lot of you take this opportunity to do something reckless in the classroom for once.
little did you know, professor mcgonagall was watching all along, in the form of a tabby cat — who you assumed to be her pet — seated on the headmistress' desk.

an encounter with the giant in the forest
so you find yourselves in the forbidden forest, fooling around, doing whatever the hell it is you're doing. that is, until one of you bumps into the massive giant in the middle of the forest.
little did you know, he's hagrid's gentle giant of a half-brother, grawp, and initially think he's a hostile.

the creature in the black lake
so you decide to fly your brooms even if it's against the rules and maybe one (or two, or three... or all) of you falls into the black lake and becomes temporarily concussed from impact.
the second you open your eyes, a large tentacle is reaching for you. little did you know, it was trying to save you from drowning. but of course, you didn't know that: there are stories about the "bane" of hogwarts.
so you're scared of it. what now?
* note: remember that the giant squid is semi-domesticated and not hostile.

strange encounters
maybe you have been meandering around in places you shouldn't be in and, to your luck, you accidentally encounter something suspicious—or maybe even dangerous.
the cloaked figure
they're hauntingly recognizable, and images from the first quidditch game are resurfacing. the forbidden forest is forbidden for a reason, and you have only one chance to either fight or run.
* note: there are two to three dementors, depending on the size of your group.
» restriction: must be done by people who were not able to discover their patronus during the dementor attack event

the centaur
you've only heard about the creatures that dwell in the forest; half man, half horse. but you've never come across one up close. you think you're just seeing things—you either had too much of what you were drinking (or smoking), or that is really a centaur.
