Welcome to Charming, where swirling petticoats, the language of flowers, and old-fashioned duels are only the beginning of what is lying underneath…
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.

SEEKING: Junior Creature Keeper to assist Prof. Brierley with care of creatures used in classes. This is an opportunity both for hands-on experience and some coin for Hogsmeade weekends. Interested parties should be in fourth year or above, and enrolled now or previously in Care of Magical Creatures. Should expect to spend two evenings, two mornings, and one week-end afternoon each week on task. Training provided.
Interested parties may send a note of inquiry to Professor N. Brierley, who will then contact candidates with further details.
Professor Brierly, I wanted to reach out in regards to the ad you posted in search of assistant. Working in animal care is something I've been considering for a long time now and I would love to work with you this year. In regards to my experience outside the past four years of O.W.L.s I have also spent the past two summers completing an internship with the Podmore Zoological Gardens and I'm sure they would be able to provide character references if needed!
I know that in your ad you ask for a fourth year and above, but I couldn't let my current year keep me from trying to get my dream job!
I love magical creatures and I want to play a part in making their lives better. I would even happily do the job free of charge, as it is my biggest joy in life to spend time with creatures. I intend to one day fight for the rights of all creatures and make sure they aren't treated with cruelty by horrible people!
It would be my honour if you considered me for the position! (Or any position that would have me spend more time with creatures!)
Professor Brierley,
My father would be most upset if I took a paid job while at school, however, I should like to offer my assistance in anyway I can, and while I should not need to be paid I believe I could be of assistance to you.
I am the president of the magical creatures club and have good practical experience.
