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 1894. It’s time to join us and immerse yourself in scandal and drama interlaced with magic both light and dark.

Unspeakable Mysteries
With the tragic passing of Balthazar Urquart during the dragon chaos of 14th September, one of Minister of Magic Ozymandias Dempsey's first tasks will be appointing a new head and assistant head of the Department of Mysteries. Between the lukewarm public perception of Bernard Prewett and general ignorance regarding what the department actually does, however, he has his work cut out for him.
But who are our candidates? Well that, fair Charming, is up to you!
Unspeakables may not always actively put themselves forward, but between self-promotion, Balt's hodge-podge personnel notes, and low-key general neopotism, candidates for the position of Department Head will emerge! These candidates will...

Kayte, why is this in the SWP thread? Think of this as an unpredictable choose-your-own-adventure for the whole board...
