During this plot, I ask that all information be kept strictly FOIC. That is, do not discuss these things OOCly or share information in any way other than between characters, in character. To do so robs yourself and others of role play.
I will post in this thread once in a while as the general RP develops, to let you all know what to be RPing in the days to come.
Rumors spread quickly among the entire wizarding community: Hogwarts has been destroyed, the Ministry was distroyed, London itself was attacked, towns across the wizarding community were attacked, Professors Moody, Snape, McGonagall and Dumbledore were killed, the Magical Law Enforcement is in shambles, and only a handful of Aurors remain. How much is truth and how much is simply rumor is hard to tell.
As you log back into the server, if you were not present at the latest event, it is likely that your character would have been at school. You may choose to RP that they were elsewhere if you like, but they would have pretty easily found out that all Hogwarts students are supposed to be at Saint Mungo's. Hogwarts itself is off limits. ALL STUDENTS ARE -REQUIRED- TO BE -AT- MUNGO'S AT THIS TIME. ICly, this is to help keep the IC chaos at a minimum to make sure everyone is accounted for. Parents of students will be kept informed and slowly reunited with their children in the coming DAYS, but very unlikely within the first 24 hours. Please RP this, as well as the panic involved in such a situation. If your character's parent(s) work at the Ministry, please contact a DM. Even when reunited, parents are encouraged to meet with their kids briefly and let them stay at Mungo's, -for now-. In the coming days, they will be released to go, if the situation warrants it. Until parents are reunited with their kids, it will be unknown if they made it through the attacks safely! Even though there may only be a handful of people logged in, remember that -all- of Hogwarts is crammed into the ground floor of Mungo's. If your character hasn't seen a particular PC, then RP that- they don't know if they are safe until they have heard otherwise.
(The following lines are out of date, this whole post is now considered common knowledge) If your character wasn't at the attack ICly, then please feel free to read no futher, but please proceed to Saint Mungo's and learn what you can ICly.
If your character was ICly at the school even though you could not be there, then please RP the following (DO NOT READ if you wish to find out in game, if your character wasn't there):
Suddenly, mid-day, the school shook with an explosion. Then another, and another. The sound of a tower falling could be heard. Then in the chaos, McGonagall's voice commanded all students to head to the Great Hall, only to be cut off as she screamed, followed by another massive explosion. Students swarmed to the Great Hall, where Professors Moody and Snape were seen clearly very injured, or worse- but it was hard to tell their condition. As the explosions continued, it felt like the very castle was falling to pieces as chunks of rock hit the roof of the Great Hall. All students evacuated by floo to Diagon, and once regrouping there, on to Saint Mungo's.
The staff of Saint Mungos was in no condition to take on the sheer number of students flowing into the building. Students made every attempt to find their friends to make sure they are ok, and questioned staff about the condition of the professors. But before too long, more blasts could be heard in the distance. Blast after blast resounded through Saint Mungo's, and the first of the Ministry officials walked in through the doors, greatly injured, followed by another, and then followed by the flood. The Ministry was under attack the same as Hogwarts was. The injured from the Ministry flooded the already overwhelmed hospital, and made connecting with friends and family even harder.
Beyond that, all information should be found out in character!
