Salem Institute of Magic (HP verse): Recruiting now!

[Bloodied Porcelain]

I'm cleaning out my inbox and getting read to do another round of sheet read-throughs today. This is a list of sheets that I know still need to be read through by the GMs and replied to. If yours is not here but you're still waiting on a reply, please tell me. My PM box has been fubared lately and I seem to have a lot of messages randomly go missing without warning.

EmberStar: Minnora Wentworth
Lady Lunarius: Damian Lockewells
ebpohmr: Thomsonicle Fawcett
TheHangedMan: Alfred Birche
AbsintheTori: Imogen Birche

Note: These are only the ones we've actually recieved revisions/first drafts of. If we haven't recieved the revisions we've asked for, your sheet isn't on the list.

GM Announcement

In the interest of making it easier for people to find the scenes they want for their characters, I've added a Scene Request section to this post. There is a code that should be used to request a scene in that post. Once you have filled out the form, post it in the IC-OOC thread. Every couple of days, I will go through and collect all the forms and add it to the Scene Request list. If a scene has been claimed, please quote your original claim and post it with a note that it has been claimed so I can update the listing.

[Bloodied Porcelain]

We are still accepting new characters! Get your sheets in! :D

[CurvyKitten]

Is this game dead, or should I assume I haven't gotten a response for several weeks about my characters because they were denied?

[Bloodied Porcelain]

The game isn't dead, the GMs have just been very busy. We haven't had much IC action lately for the same reason. I'm hoping to get responses about sheets done in the next couple days at the latest.

Should be noted that those several weeks were in fact two ::)  :P

[ebpohmr]

When waiting to get into as awesome a game as Salem, its easy to see why two weeks would feel like months! *nods*

[Amelita]

<3

The waiting's been on me, mostly. Life's been crazy for a couple of months but things are settling into a somewhat reasonable path ::)


I do feel bad about holding things up, especially you lovelies waiting on approvals and whatnot -cough-curvydarling-cough-

-hands out cookies and hugs-

[CurvyKitten]

Should be noted that those several weeks were in fact two ::)  :P

a bit more then that actually bit, yes it has been some time and I was wondering. I know there is always stuff to fix in these types of games, so I had wondered if I had simply written a character that was simply not approved or got looked over. i had hoped I didn't write that badly :P

[Amelita]

We'd never just ignore you, lovely.


If an application was too horrid to even have a shot at being edited into shape, (which hasn't happened so far), even that person would get a PM from us.

[Amelita]

There is still time to get into this before we close down recruitment!

Have a look, snoop around, fall in love ;)

[Josietta]

* Josietta is considering making one up over here. >.> 

Is okay I am my slow self?

[Amelita]

...you know I'm a GM, right?


(Is there anyone slower than the Ame? xD )

You're absolutely fine, darling, and we'd love to have you!

[Josietta]

*giggles*  Yays!

You think this one might fit in?

Chase

 

I need to figure out his year and such.. but I figure Chase'll be an older student like equivalent to a 4th or 5th year in HaF? 

He'd be a half blood. I'd need to find him a family to link to.

His family would have money but isn't filthy rich. He'd be more like upper middle class, in modern real life he'd be a lot like a boarding school boy whose parents are divorced. He hates his step-bitch (mother) and his father is a hardass Marine.  His mom is a pureblood whore who discreetly and sometimes not so discreetly marries older wizards only for their money then moves on to the next when he dies. She doesn't contact Chase except when she wants something and he has issues telling her no. ....

oookay... now I'm rambling... >.>

[Amelita]

I think he'd fit in nicely ::)

Salem has the same ages as HaF and is running on roughly the same time IC so you can easily figure that one out.
You don't need to find him a family to link to if he's halfblooded, but you of course can if you want to.

Your best option in that regard would be to go over the approved characters list and just pm or post in the ooc if there's someone specific you want to link to :) But you know this, of course ::)

<3 Feel free to PM or IM me if there's anything.

[Josietta]

Sweet!!  I'll work on a sheet and in the meantime pop up my Face Claim and say hello in the OOC.

[Amelita]

Sounds like a plan ;)

[Bloodied Porcelain]

This is just a not to let everyone lurking know that we will be closing the game to new characters once we get characters on the train to head to the school. We are planning to have this happen in roughly 3-4 weeks in real time. Those we know are planning to get us sheets will still be allowed to submit them during this time, and we will at some point afterward open back up to new players and new sheets from existing players. :)

I dont know if I'll have the time to commit to this game, I may become a fairly important person in August. But are there any specific characters that the game currently needs?

Specifically "needs"? Not really. We still have a ton of open staff spots though, and of course we are always open to more students. :)

[Chaosfox]

I'm taking a look right now over this If you need any kind of spot filled I could try and do it or make a student. Reading over stuff right now but this...Has caught my eye

[JamesSureWould]

Okay, this looks very interesting. I hope to get a character submitted in the next day or so.

[Josietta]

I am still going to submitt my Chase!!  But I have a girl I want now too.. I'm just slow to get sheets done..
