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.

Purism:
None: Your character does not have purist leanings, or favours magical individuals over straight-up muggles. Soft: Your character generally favours purebloods and halfbloods over muggleborns and muggles. They would be iffy on marrying "down" blood-wise. Hard: Pureblood or bust.
Politics:
Liberal: Closer to 1980s than 1890s. Moderate: "Standard" for the era Conservative: The old ways are the only ways.
