Welcome to Erised, a Marauders-Era RPG! It is May 1977. The Marauders are in sixth year. Hogwarts students struggle to recover from frightening recent events, but now there are rumors of new dangers lurking in the forest with an injured pupil to prove it. Several students plus one teacher have died or been injured in the past few months, including one girl as recently as the Easter break. Regardless, there are still classes, Quidditch matches, dances, illicit parties and even a student-published gossip column known as the Tattler. Meanwhile, Ministry of Magic policies are changing, and not all these new laws are meant to protect the wizarding population. Already, one student has been arrested because of these policies. Six students were mistakenly arrested for Muggle baiting. The law enforcement seems highly inefficient. Aurors are not performing their usual duties. Traitors are hidden everywhere one turns. Soon, staying out of it will no longer be an option. Now is the time to ask oneself the important question,"Where do I stand?" In the light of good or the shadow of evil

Current Roleplay Date:
May 1977

Wizarding Locations
[ ]Azkaban
Azkaban is a prison located on an island in the middle of the North Sea that serves the magical community of Great Britain. Using certain Charms, the prison is hidden from the muggle world, and is unplottable. It is thought to have undetectable extension charms placed on it (or similar types of magic) to make it bigger on the inside, as the prison seems to serve the whole of wizarding Britain. It is known that there are other wizarding prisons elsewhere, such as Nurmengard.
