After a magical attempt on her life in 1877, Queen Victoria launched a crusade against magic that, while tidied up by the Ministry of Magic, saw the Wizarding community exiled to Hogsmeade, previously little more than a crossroad near the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. In the years that have passed since, Hogsmeade has suffered plagues, fires, and Victorian hypocrisy but is still standing firm.
Thethe year is now 1895. It’s time to join us and immerse yourself in scandal and drama interlaced with magic both light and dark.Where will you fall?
With the same account, complete eight different threads where your character interacts with eight different usergroups. At least one must be a non-human, and one a student.
Remember Fun February? I MISS IT! So let's bring it back, spring style.
May-hem is optional, but it would be fun in light of world events to do up some out of the box avs/graphics what have you. Silly faces, completely outrageous outfits, makeup whatever strikes your fancy! I've updated Elsie already XD
Go forth and cause Mayhem my darlings!

Welcome to May's activity month! The List is compiled, with deactivations and list cleanup taking place later today! If you lost a character you'd like back, you may post in Maintenance starting Wednesday, May 6th. If you have no currently active characters you can post in maintenance immediately! If you lost a character before the AC, you can post there whenever you'd like!
Posting Wizard will roll over tomorrow, meaning you can still sign up for May today! Keep your eyes peeled for April's results.
We have some solid events for May as well as a delightful writing challenge, so be sure to check them out!
And last but not least, we are looking for both summer banners and fond memories in advance of a particularly impressive milestone next month...

Just a few odds-and-ends things, my dears! First off, a reminder that our writing challenge this month is GLORIOUS, and runs until June 6th. We are also now taking submissions for our Summer Reading Challenge and seeking YOUR recollections for Project Memory Lane!
But I know why you're really here...
