      Ravenclaw Wins the House Cup!

      Ravenclaw are this year's House Cup victors! Well done to everyone who wrote in lessons, and earned house points in all manner of unusual ways in character. Thank you to writers of Professor characters for providing opportunities and adding up those all important points. More information, including which students earned the highest house points, can be found in this news post.



      Seventh Years - Time to Grow Up

      Several writers have already submitted career change forms for their seventh year Hogwarts students who are graduating, but for those of you yet to do so, we encourage you to post a career change form as soon as possible. As the timeline shift the curators will update the years on the cast list and move anyone without a career to 'witch' or 'wizard'. More information in the news here.



      What To Do With Tournament Characters?

      A few years ago when the Tournament began, many members created new characters from foreign lands to participate in our grand adventure! But by the end of June, most of them will be returning home.  What options do you have for them?

      Free Retirement: Any tournament characters may be retired for free, without a write-out. Send a request via the Contact the Staff form.

      Transition to Local Positions: Use a career change form to find a new career and life here in Wizarding Britain.

      There will be no transfers to Hogwarts permitted for visiting students.

      Please feel free to Contact the Staff if you have any questions or need a boost in deciding what to do with your Tournament character.
       


      Fancy a Refresh?

      When characters haven't posted in character for 4 or more months, they are eligible for a free retire. Just Contact the Staff and we'll take care of it. (Please let us know if you would like the biographies moved out of your member board).

      However, if you have a lonely character, you can alternatively revamp them or change their career to give them a new lease of life.
