The Marriage Law

A Harry Potter alternate universe where the bad guys won

The idea of the marriage law is a forced marriage of a half-blood to a Pure-blood due to a new decree passed by the new Ministry of Magic to help preserve the magical population.
(Used to be muggleborns, but I'm changing it to strictly half-bloods. No exceptions. Muggleborns were slaughtered and any discovered by death eaters would be put to death immediately. This is Voldemort's Wizarding World after all)


Harry lost. Voldemort won. The 'criminal' Harry Potter is dead. The 'criminal' muggleborn and bloodscum Hermione Granger is dead. The 'criminal' Ron Weasley is dead for association and aiding the enemy Harry Potter.

In a twisted and warped act of 'mercy' towards half-bloods after his gruesome genocide of muggle-born witches and wizards... Voldemort has decreed that all half-bloods must marry a pure-blood within a year after turning 17 or they will submit to an arranged match... if they refuse the ministry chosen suitors offered and outright refuse to obey the law, they face criminal charges and execution.
Those over 18 at the time of  the decree have one year started from the day the decree was issued. Basically all applicable to the law of marrying age will have one year. Everyone from that point afterward will have precisely one year upon turning 17.

This method in the mind of Voldemort would eventually filter all muggle blood from Wizard family bloodlines, eliminating the filthy stain upon their glorious legacy forever.


This would all be taking place the year after Harry Potter's death after all castle repairs have been made, Harry and his loyal comrades will have perished on that final Hogwarts show down.



Rules

1. No childish behavior. If you have a dispute with anyone, do not begin a war in the OOC, settle it yourselves if you can. Bring issue directly to me if it concerns anything that can or will impact the game.
2. Absolutely no god modding, you may not control anything another person's character says, does or may have said in the past without the player of the subject character's clear permission. I will warn you once for a first occurrence and you'll be expected to retract the god-modding. actions/words/etc, a second complaint from a player with proof I can see for myself will see you removed from game.
3. No meta-gaming, I absolutely abhor it when people attempt to meta game, don't do it. I will warn you once in game and you'll be expected to retract the meta-gaming actions/words/etc, a second offense will see you removed from game.
For those that do not know what meta gaming is, to meta game is to go into an 'in-game' scene armed with knowledge obtained out of game that your character could never actually logically know.

For example, if a character had a deep dark secret and never ever told a single soul... but you somehow guess this deep dark secret with no logical explanation. That is meta gaming. Do not do it.

4. This is not an excuse for your characters to go bed hopping or treat this like a Harry Potter themed porno. Treat this like the serious situation it is meant to be. I reserve the right to ask people to leave if they cannot respect this. This is not the game for you if you are looking for non-stop and rampant smut all over the place in total chaos.
5. I am the GM here, I will be making the rules around here. Do not attempt to bully me into doing what you want, odds are that if I say no on something, my answer will not change and you'll just annoy me. (Sorry if this is kinda cranky, dealt with this crap before)
6. No canon characters- Most canon characters are dead and players are forbidden from attempting to request to play one, be related to one or have connections of any kind to any of them. We are accepting original characters only.
7. Photo representation- Real people or artwork only, no anime permitted.
8. Orientation, for the logic of the theme of this particular game being the marriage law and Voldemort's purpose for the law, it would only make sense that we deal in Heterosexual characters only. I am not homophobic, I have a gay brother whom I love more than anything and would fight somebody for, I just think this makes sense in this case.
9. Character sheets- PM the character sheets directly to LamentingQuill for viewing and I will get back with you ASAP on anything needing discussed or if you're all set. Please fill out the sheets exactly as I issue them, do not alter anything or decide to omit anthing, please. If you'd like anything added, please send me a PM and I'll happily discuss it with you.

Please mark characters sheets as "Marriage Law" in the PM subject bar.

{New rules may appear as they become necessary}

GM note: Group will be placed the NC section just as a precaution, it does not mean that NC is the big theme.
