Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry discussion

Any ideas for plot development? :)

Perhaps this is the year of the Tri-Wizard Tournament? Or should we save that for later?

That would be coooool.

And maybe there's something going on among the teachers? Like, there are rumors that there are Death Eaters in the faculty, and they're secretly taking information about the students (like strengths, weaknesses) to Lord Voldemort and the other Death Eaters?

Yes, yes, yes.

So should the Tri-Wizard Tournament be going on at the same time? Or would that be too much?

Hmm.....we'd have to wait and see.
cos like, in the Goblet of Fire they had the Death Eater scare going on. :)

Did they? Hah, I thought that was an original idea. XD Personally, I think it would be too much, especially if multiple teachers were supposedly DEs. I don't think the other schools would come if that was the rumor.

Okay, your idea. :P

And maybe because of that there are people from the ministry showing up at random times to poke their noses around and be obnoxious?

okay okay okay okay okay

:)

So Voldemort is at large currently, right?

Yep. :)

Fun *rubs hands together manically*

Has the Order already been established or should they begin to make it this year?

I don't remember...

I think there would be an Order, but it wouldn't be as strong as it is after Voldemort's return on the Goblet of Fire.

Right, because Voldemort isn't as active right now.

I thought that meant he was

He is, he's just still on his way to absolute power. He was at his height when he went and tried to kill Harry, remember? So that wouldn't be until Lily and James are adults, get married, have their kid.

So, still about 10 years, then?

Right now he'd be in his recruiting stage, and he'd also probably plan a few attacks with low to medium mortality rates so that the people know he's a threat, but not yet a really high threat

About, yeah, I think. He's probably got a reasonably big force, but not big enough to make his move to overthrow the ministry.

Yeah. And that would explain the rumors of some Hogwarts staff being Death Eaters and trying to recruit students.

Okay, that makes since.

Should there be some sort of prophecy? Oh, that really does sound like a weak idea. :D Maybe Sirius, James, Reamus, and Peter could raise a DADA class like Harry did in book 5?

We've gone over that

Oh, okay.

Great minds and all that :)

Maybe we could stick with just the Triwizard Tournament?

Doesn't that mean we nees people from other schools?

Yeah...that could be an issue...

We could do the House Cup tournament, not to be confused with the Tri-Wizard tournament. See AVPM for refrance.

Oh, that's a really good idea! Yeah, we could just do a House Cup tournament where one person from each house could participate and we could make up some of the stuff that they'd have to do. Then who ever wins the tournament could earn their house lots of points? Or even just win the House Cup?

So...it would be a Tri-Wizard Tournament, except with four people, and only between the houses? Or the usual House Cup tournament?
