Welcome to Potter’s Army

Welcome to Potter's Army

We have been a Harry Potter Roleplaying site since 2007. If you're an old member we hope you come check out the discord link provided below. And if you're looking for a new roleplaying site, well, we're a little inactive. But every once and a while nostalgia sets in and a few of our alumni members will revisit the old stomping grounds and post together. Remember to stay safe out there. And please feel free to drop a line whenever!

What’s Happening?
Since every few months or so a few of our old members get the inspiration to revisit their old stomping grounds we have decided to keep PA open as a place to revisit old threads and start new ones devoid of any serious overarching plot or setting. Take this time to start any of those really weird threads you never got to make with old friends and make them now! Just remember to come say hello in the chatbox below or in the discord. Links have been provided in the "Comings and Goings" forum as well as the welcome widget above.

Hey Terry.
Just a few things, your character is 14 right? So he's in 4th year? So you need to do your Hogwarts History, of the first four years at Hogwarts.
You also need to make your early history a bit longer, and your RP sample longer too.

Other than that, I can't see any problems.

Well, your PB pic does not look like Daniel Radcliffe to me. You might want to double check that too.

Thanks,

Yes, I'm double posting. Ok, Terry. Your app looks good except for a couple of issues that, I think, will be easily repaired.

First, as Jess said, we do need to see more in your history for him so far at Hogwarts. Please lengthen that section. Please lengthen his early history section as well.

In your RP sample, they're always written in the third person, past, from your character's point of view. You need to shift the tense of how your sample is written so that we know you understand how posts are written here.

For example, here's a paragraph from a recent post I made. Maybe this helps.:

"Merely protecting myself," She said, pausing to conjure herself a cup of French Roast. She hated conjured coffee, but it was better than nothing. "You want a cup?" She didn't know of Rob to ever much like French Roast coffee, but she thought she woudl at least offer. " I had picked out that little skinny black dress you liked so much, but I can't hide a bloody thing in that," she sighed. She pushed her own wand into her right boot and Remus's into her left. "I don't want to hurt anybody, and I do not want to make it anybody else's responsibility to keep me in one piece. I need to take that piece of my life back. If I don't, I'm going to be running from little guys like Barker for the rest of my life. And you know what, he's not entitled to that much of me. Not ever again."


BY the way, thanks for changing your PB pics. Those looks much better. Its nice to have Dan Radcliff on here. I'm anxious to see him on the boards.
