Harry Potter and the Rise of the Light (AU, OCs and select Canons Wanted!)

Harry Potter and the Rise of the Light

That year was supposed to be the end of everything. We were about to head towards Hogwarts to end it all. We were to find a horcrux and face Voldemort. We were late. The Light, as we call ourselves, had already destroyed two horcruxes before we broke the locket. And the break in to Gringotts was hardly a quiet affair. So when Bellatrix alerted her master of the loss of another horcrux, Riddle didn’t hesitate to move on the final hold of the light, the castle meant for learning where he had stored one of his many horcruxes, Hogwarts. He couldn’t risk losing another and having the target come closer to him. Nagini after all was usually close by at all times and her death would mean four pieces of his soul obliterated. Not even including if they did manage to destroy the goblet or the diadem.

This RP was inspired by this group of pictures. This is the timeline that is set in stone as of right now:

• Gringotts Bank was robbed by the Golden Trio. However, instead of heading to Hogsmead, they lay low for a few days. This was a mistake.

• Voldemort attacks the castle, intending to reclaim his diadem. Knowing Harry is not in the castle due to the Horcrux in Harry, he doesn’t wait and instead storms the Castle immediately and without warning. Details of the battle are unknown as of yet. Casualties unknown.

Currently we're going to be looking for Death Eaters/Dark characters (canon and OCs), and Ron. I want to keep this balanced for now so 7 total Death Eaters will have to be accepted before we begin as I already have one OC who's on the side of Light. Keep in mind that this will be an International RP. The main focus in the beginning will be Britain, but keep in mind that for the purposes of this RP, Britain is essentially lost save for the underground rebellion. Foreign supporters may come in, and maybe another group could even attempt to ally themselves with old Tom. Just tossin plot bunnies out there.

I’m willing to take volunteers for the following Canons:

Starting Canons:

• Hermione Granger (RoTWS)
• Neville Longbottom (RoTWS)
• Harry Potter (RainbowRian)
• Luna Lovegood (Ember Star)
• Ginny Weasley (Miss Kaia)
• Draco Malfoy (KCKolbe)

Available Canons:

• Ron Weasley
• Tom Marvolo Riddle (Google)
• Bellatrix Lestrange
• Lucius Malfoy
• Narcissa Malfoy
• Any Death Eater not listed will most likely be accepted

I have a co-GM: KCKolbe. This is intended as a long running RP running years of Game Time. As such elements I wish to implement: Torture and Non-con. I intend for people to get caught at some point or another. If you don't want to play it out, I will ask, you will decline, and we will say it happened and that's perfectly fine. You do not have to participate in the scenes, just accept that they happened.

That being said:

• This will be in the Non-Con section


• When I open this up for OC’s, All gender types and Sexualities will be accepted.


• Canon Players: I expect you to have fun. These kids are going into what we expect to be college age. Any experimentation you want to have, as long as it’s mutual between players, go for it.


• This RP is not a sex RP: This is meant to be highly emotional situation so sex will happen. It’s not the focus. Story/Character Development is.


• See this page for the system I am using. All characters will have to make a sheet and I will allot points based appropriately based on Canon backstory or Age/experience for OCs. Any flaws or advantages not in the system yet let us know and we will discuss adding them.[/color]


• A minimum post requirement of once a week (barring emergencies and the like) will be implemented. I will ask after one week of no posting (if you’re not waiting for someone else) if something’s going on/check A/As. To CLARIFY, if I don't hear something back within a week of no posting, I will assume that you are no longer interested and start recruiting again, especially if I see you around E. Might assume CPU troubles for an extra week, but after that and still no contact, I will have to drop you.

Here's the code for the character sheets. Feel free to add pics if you like. PM me sheets and I'll approve them as we go. Once I get a few, I'll set up an Approved Character thread. Maybe sooner so that you have examples to work off of.

Nooo! You can't take Luna! *throws a fit* LOL, JK. How close are you wanting the cannons to the cannon personalities/ect?

[Rogue]

I would like them to be similar at least in the basics. Obviously whoever's Harry is gonna have a lot of work because there are more details given to his thought process but... I'm more concerned about base aspects of personality being there versus minute details. I'd like known cannon feelings to be there initially.... But players are more than welcome to change things especially as characters grow. (Like I expect Ron to like hermione. His reasoning can be whatever but that should be there. That type of thing.) Draco I kinda want to be a budding blood traitor but we can take that however slowly that player likes. Who you thinking about Ember?

Edit: Realized a better way to say this...

Everything up until just after the Gringott's escape on the dragon is cannon! I expect the Cannons to be played similar to however you interpreted the characters at this point.

[Ember Star]

Off that list? Ginny, Ron, or maybe Neville. Though I usually don't play males on E. Further on, I might take a different female cannon. Or perhaps I can just make a OC. Some perky American witch who came to Britain to help.

[Rogue]

*grins* Figure out whoever you're most comfortable with. I might have people submit character sheets so that I know the personalities people will be expecting to use when this gets more bites. :)

I suppose I'll say this now, because I've seen really silly things in my times, there will be no bashing of the Weasleys as characters please. This goes for all characters. So far, all of the cannons are expected to be on the same side with the exception of Draco in the beginning. And more importantly, we're expecting them to be on the same side in the long run (barring IC events of course). These are our good guys. :)

[Ember Star]

I think I'll start off with an OC. I have a urge to use Jenifer Lawrence as a play by and an idea of a personality. I'm not the biggest Ginny fan, and while I feel like I could pull off any of the boys except Harry, I don't really wanna play a male. I my pick up an OC later as they open up though.

[Rogue]

I'll shoot you a PM when/if we get to that point. Thanks Ember. :)

[Ember Star]

*nod nod* I may change my mind depending on what other people pick up. But right now I worry about playing a male if sexual aspects come into play. I'm experimenting more, but step by step. I'm not sure I could carry a sexual scene as a male.

Rambling, sorry

[Rogue]

*nods* I understand those feelings. Fortunately I've had experience writing het porn on my own!

I honestly don't know how big a thing sex is actually going to be. Like I said, most of this will be plot driven. Kissing and such, sure. Sex might just end up being something that two players do in their inboxes. It depends on who we get.

Tell you what though, if you can convince me to let you have Luna I'll consider using Ginny or Neville as my plot bitches manipulators for Hogwarts side. Do it in PMs though (and preferably sometime tomorrow. I'm supposed to be asleep.)

[Ember Star]

ooooh Luna <3 my very favorite character in all of HP aside from Snape *dibbles up ideas* Hahaha. I'm fixing to hit the hay myself. But I'll try and send you something tomorrow

[Kaia]

I am interested in playing Ginny.

[Rogue]

*grins* Thanks Kaia. :)

[Kaia]

Of course :)

[apygoos]

MY plate is pretty full, so not sure about joining, but i will definitely be following with great interest :)

[Rogue]

*grins* Hey Apy! If you know anyone who'd be interested in joining please send them my way! *grins* Good to see you hon.

[kckolbe]

Definitely considering playing an OC, but that's all I have right now.

[Primarch]

I'll be keeping an eye on this one.

[Ember Star]

Sorry I didn't get the Luna thing to you today. I got adsorbed into other things. I'mma try to get it finished tomorrow.

[Rogue]

Thanks for showing interest. :)

You're fine hon. My girl got back yesterday so I was fifty million kinds of distracted.

[Primarch]

Think I'll go with an OC Auror, either one that's now retired but was infamous for his treatment of Voldemort's supporters during the last war, or someone a touch younger and now just arriving on the scene properly.

[apygoos]

i find it funny that theres no Harry yet. and in THIS setting...Draco would be very intersting to play...
*sighs* i think i can make room to ease my potter fix~
/is a part of JWA/when the ic new schoolyear comes around, HaF
sign me up for harry, between ember and rogue..how can i resist? especially gettign to play with a new face in Miss Kaia :)

I like that concept, a new unknown ally for those who would fight in the darkest hour.

*grins* I'll be happy to see that actually. Be nice to have an older character in the ranks. I'll shoot you a PM with some questions I'll have.

OCs won't be introduced for a bit after... giving the canon some time to get together after the loss, but I'll be happy to start setting up with you now.

Perfect.

[Ember Star]

Yeah, Draco would be interesting here. I almost took him because of that. But I figured I'd leave him to somebody else. I'm actually not a big fan of Harry himself, though.

[Rogue]

On that note, we're probably going to end up going with a system similar to one that KCKolbe has used in the past. He's agreed to assist me with modding it for now. He will also be Co-GM.

OCs will be given a base amount of points to play with where as Canons will just be told to roll dice and I will have numbers set up for them. (Because let's face it, Harry and gang had plot armor out the butt.)
