Welcome to Gaia! ::

Characters Involved: Richard Drage, Mirzam Owens, Kenji Apostol

Usernames of each character, respectively: Diamond Wales, Julian Galaksylph

Have each of the above listed members fully agreed to the following plot?: Yes

What is your plot idea? Please explain in great detail: Mirzam, after the one-year trauma he went through, has come back to Hogwarts being very different. He became less friendly, more distant, and more silent. Mirzam had a lack of coping mechanism and couldn't bring himself to trust on seeing a mind healer, so his best solution was to throwing himself to work and leave little to no time for himself as a way to "prove a point that he can still handle himself" (he doesn't). He and his roommate Kenji were also having rougher times than usual because Kenji wanted to help after being informed by Matteo (who was his Auror bestfriend who heard about Mirzam's incident), but Mirzam took it as an insult and pushed him away as a result.

Scared of what might possibly happen to Mirzam, Kenji went to contact Rick- telling him to at least keep an eye on him if he could. So Rick tried to talk to Mirzam, only to be snapped at as a result. Until one time, Mirzam was sick but went to work anyway- that it bit him in the arse, passed out, and end up having to be sent home. Rick visits Kenji & Mirzam's home and get to properly talk to the recovering Mirzam, talk things out, and would end up Rick assuring Mir that he wasn't a crazy ticking bomb and/or alone. At first, Mirzam wasn't ready enough to visit one so he's take Rick's offer of maybe talking in the office when they have time. But don't worry, in a few years, Mir will take Rick's more recommended advice and visit a Mind Healer.

When do you plan for this idea to go into effect? Start of School year 2040

What are the idea's drawbacks? Mirzam's hurting himself health-wise due to ignoring his well-being and facing the health consequences I learned from overworked people. I think some staff members might freak out.

Why are you interested in doing this idea? It's an aftermath plot after everything Mirzam has gone through and how it damages him so bad (Dead family members, his favorite sibling dead, being tortured by your own sister for a year...). HOWEVER, it is also to have him learn that he is not alone and not a crazy ticking-bomb waiting to happen. And he needs to earn his happy ending.

Anything else you would like to share about this idea? This is like Mirzam's darkest point, though after that he'll get better especially when Rui was dead.

Characters Involved: Felix Geary, Edgar Farquarson, NPC bully

Usernames of each character, respectively: Kungfudemoness, Julian Galaksylph

Have each of the above listed members fully agreed to the following plot?:yep via skype

What is your plot idea? Please explain in great detail: Eddie and Felix are best friends and of course join up for the hogsmeade trips. When on one of these trips a bully of a older year starts picking on them as he thought, Eddie who had been trying to read a sign, was staring at him funny and pushes them around. Felix being finally tired of being a doormat and his best friend is involved, he gets fed up and defends Eddie resulting in Felix taking a gut punch that had been intended for Eddie and gets called twerp or something. The bully gets bored and leaves. Felix ends up reassuring Eddie of their friendship and they grow closer.

When do you plan for this idea to go into effect? Fall 2041

What are the idea's drawbacks? (e.g. Does anyone get killed? Is Hogwarts going to have to suffer? etc.) Poor Felix gets punched again. (I should really stop letting this happen) and Eddie get a bit traumatized. All will be ok by the time they return to the castle

Why are you interested in doing this idea? It's to help Felix grow a backbone and to ease Eddie’s mind that he protecting Felix too much and not letting him grow.

Anything else you would like to share about this idea? Hopefully this is the last time I make an NPC hit poor Felix.

Characters Involved: Hikaru Nakano, Driskol Abrams, all 7th years

Usernames of each character, respectively: Kungfudemoness, Miss GryffindorK, everyone with 7th years

Have each of the above listed members fully agreed to the following plot?: Very much so! We planed this over Skype

What is your plot idea? Please explain in great detail: N.E.W.Ts are hard and stressful. Why end the last at Hogwarts with stress. Always suspect the plotting Ravenclaws cause Dris and Hikaru have something up their sleeve. PARTY! Not just any party. The best party. Now that the hardest tests are done join in on some refreshments, music and sliding. You read that right, sliding. Using various charms a hallway in hogwarts will for one time only become a super slick slip and slide. All 7th years are welcome. NO UNDERCLASSMAN! PLAN YOU OWN PARTY 6TH YEARS!

When do you plan for this idea to go into effect? while in character its spring of 42, I would like it open for the 2 month school year

What are the idea's drawbacks? (e.g. Does anyone get killed? Is Hogwarts going to have to suffer? etc.) a hallway suffer for a short bit and it may end up being a mass detention for the attendees. Hikaru and Dris for sure would get the longest as they are the masterminds. Unless of course the teachers and Steele want in the fun.

Why are you interested in doing this idea? seeing as there is no special thing for the 7th years other than more tests they deserve better besides this is the class of 42. They are the answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, The Universe, and Everything. Does that not deserve a party?

Anything else you would like to share about this idea? this is like the only class of 42 for a looooong time.

Characters Involved: The Kinsley Twins, Professors Steele, Hill, and Laslow

Usernames of each character, respectively: Cara MiaKitty, Diamond Wales, Devlyn Maycry

Have each of the above listed members fully agreed to the following plot?: Yis

What is your plot idea? Please explain in great detail:

Celeste's betrothed Hermolaos (NPC) is not thrilled that her brother Sorin was named prefect over him, partially because ego and partially because to be perfectly honest Sorin's a bit lazy so he doesn't think he deserves it. But, handily enough, Celeste is a metamorphmagus. Hermolaos is going to overhear a discussion between Lazy Mouse and Industrious Mouse Sorin and Celeste wherein Celeste agrees to impersonate her brother and perform his practical examinations for him, so that he can avoid doing it himself. This is going to give Hermolaos the idea to have Celeste impersonate her brother for other purposes, namely so that he can abuse Sorin's prefect status via Celeste. He is, of course, going to threaten to inform the professors that she is planning on taking her brother's exams if she doesn't comply. Celeste, being both so loyal to her brother that she absolutely wants to take his exams for her, and browbeaten enough that she feels obligated to do whatever her betrothed says, reluctantly agrees.

He'll spend the school year ordering her about, taking advantage of her (Sorin's) ability to move about the school more or less unhindered thanks to being prefect, and finding excuses to cause problems for students he doesn't like. Eventually it'll culminate in Hermolaos forcing her to agree to take his exams as well, under the threat of him ratting out her and her brother if she refuses, as well as threatening to tell the professors about her impersonating Sorin under the guise of a concerned student as opposed to an involved party.

Things go more or less according to plan, aside from suspicions being roused by Sorin's supposed odd behavior at times from his housemates, but given that he's not particularly well liked most don't think to question it. But things fall apart when Hermolaos overhears another conversation between the twins, this time discussing Celeste having purposefully failed her betrothed's exams. Out of revenge, he gets them caught by telling a professor where to find Sorin while he's supposedly taking one of his own. The twins are brought in to the Headmaster to discuss their actions and to discipline them. Celeste realizes very quickly that things are not going well, and knows she is already on thin ice with her father. In a moment of desperation, to attempt to punish Hermolaos for whatever might happen to her due to his getting them caught, she confesses to everything she did at his behest during the school year. In the end, she and Hermolaos are both expelled, while it is decided that Sorin, whose only wrongdoing was dodging his exams, will be held back a year and have his prefect status revoked.

When do you plan for this idea to go into effect? Immediately

What are the idea's drawbacks? (e.g. Does anyone get killed? Is Hogwarts going to have to suffer? etc.) Two kids get expelled, the Kinsley twins have to suffer the consequences and their father's wrath (a second plot will be posted at MoM regarding this), general unpleasantness.

Why are you interested in doing this idea? One, this has been the plan more or less from day one with these two. Two, I don't want to take their exams. Three, what is even the point of metamorphmagi if no one ever impersonates someone to actually do something bad. Four, exams. Ew. Five, this is going to set up a lot of future drama and fun for the guild. Six, did I mention the exams? Because the exams.

Anything else you would like to share about this idea? The followup plot has murder

Characters Involved: Calum Murdock, Vincent Cloutier, Aeryn Quinlan

Usernames of each character, respectively:
Cara MiaKitty, Kungfudemoness, Miss GryffindorK

Have each of the above listed members fully agreed to the following plot?:yep

What is your plot idea? Please explain in great detail: as per tradition the first years will travel by boat. What not per tradition is students to get wet. Vinny will initially take a boat to himself thinking he is simply too big to share a boat. Aeryn joins him making it a boat of two. The boat ride is normal enough but things change when they exit the boats. When Vinny goes to exit the boat it ends up rocking and throwing off Aeryn's balance who starts to fall. Vinny attempts to rescue her but also loses his balance and both fall out of the boat into the water. Calum dives in and rescues them

When do you plan for this idea to go into effect? pre sorting boat ride 2042

What are the idea's drawbacks? (e.g. Does anyone get killed? Is Hogwarts going to have to suffer? etc.) while a drying spell will help. They both get soaked. Calum also gets wet in the rescue. Both kids can swim but will need assistance getting out of the water.

Why are you interested in doing this idea? It kicks off Vinny and Aeryn's friendship and adds some drama to the boat ride for once.

Anything else you would like to share about this idea? nope xD

Characters Involved: Enid Lambert, Ada Whitethorne, Ceallachán Ó Madaidhín & Jason Hill

Usernames of each character, respectively: murruelecreuset, Cara MiaKitty, Diamond Wales

Have each of the above listed members fully agreed to the following plot?: Yes.

What is your plot idea? Please explain in great detail:

With Enid’s deep rooted fear of vampires, she began avoiding the Whitethorne twins Desi and Zach. When first finding out she was in a big stage of denial. However, it wasn’t long before she couldn’t deny that they were half vampires. So, there was no way she was going anywhere near their mother Ada Whitethorne. Now in fourth year this means evidently skipping her potion classes in attempts to avoid her.

Of course, her lack of attendance won’t go unnoticed by Professor Whitethorne. After talking with Enid’s head of house Jason, Ada asks Enid to come to her office after dinner to talk. With convincing from her friend Cel to go, she went to her office. Once there Enid will explain why she’s been skipping classes and get a talking too from Ada about it. Being threatened with having to deal with her head of house, Enid will go back to attending her classes and work her butt off to keep herself from failing.

Chloe will also be getting written notice about her daughter’s stint of skipping class. As such Enid will be getting a talking to from her mother and be grounded for the majority of the summer.

When do you plan for this idea to go into effect? During the 2042 school year

What are the idea's drawbacks? (e.g. Does anyone get killed? Is Hogwarts going to have to suffer? etc.) Enid’s grade will suffer. She’ll have to deal with Ada and possibly her HoH Jason (if she fails). Plus being grounded for the summer by her mother.

Why are you interested in doing this idea? Because Enid is afraid of vampires and it is well known that Ada Whitethorne is a vampire. Plus, this girl needs to face her fear.

Anything else you would like to share about this idea? She might end up with detention if it goes to Jason.

Characters Involved: Sonora Li, Squid, Groundskeeper, and any first years that wanted to join up.

(expecting not all explicitly confirmed: Jonah Lane, Iggy Hepburn, Vinny Cloutier, Kam Hepburn, Gideon Edgeworth, Vespera Salazar, Aeryn Quinlan, Priscilla Richardson-Connelly, Charlotte Richardson-Connelly, Stella Connelly)

Usernames of each character, respectively: addaellis, CaraMiaKitty and Trickblues, Kungfudemoness, The Forgotten Weasley, Stefan Lee Salvatore, Miss GryffindorK, murrelecreuset.

Have each of the above listed members fully agreed to the following plot?: Most approved and everyone listed expressed interest in the premise which was listed pretty similarly.

What is your plot idea? Please explain in great detail:
The first years invite their family and new friends to a hang out some weekend. The plot would take place in "The Forbidden Forest, "the Lake", and Surrounding Area" forum areas. They meet up as a picnic on the lawn (probably the Black Lake thread) where they run into the Giant Squid, then stroll towards the Forest until they run into Groundskeeper Callum. (Covered Bridge > Stone Circle> Groundskeeper's Hut)

Something seasonal could also happen, like a short snowball fight at the stone circle if it's winter.

When do you plan for this idea to go into effect? 2042 school year

What are the idea's drawbacks? (e.g. Does anyone get killed? Is Hogwarts going to have to suffer? etc.) A few kids might decide to break the rules or sneak off into the Forbidden Forest. If they get caught they might get detention or lost house points.

Why are you interested in doing this idea? It'd be an opportunity for some of the students to meet up and hang out.

Anything else you would like to share about this idea? I was running off of the map provided in the main thread and this map for a path option.
