ALLOWED CANON CHARACTERS TO BE CREATED

Those who create canons can skip to the year they're supposed to be in, but for them to advance in grade, you must attend class and participate like everyone else. Any characters not currently in school cannot be created until their 'year' is to begin. We will make announcements when they're available.



So how do you claim one? Well, just like any other character, you start by making an account and posting an application. While some of the information you need is already given, it is up to you to do any and all research to make sure that your descriptions, history, and timeline are accurate. You will need to make sure you are staying accurate to bloodlines, middle names, birth dates, and any other information that we've been given by JKR.

Admin is also willing to consider the children of any "reasonable" pairings of canon characters. We reserve the right to decide what a "reasonable" pairing is. Please PM one of us before making an application so that we can discuss this. As far as Admin can tell, there can be NO MORE Blacks, Crouches, Diggorys, Gaunts, Riddles, Dumbledores, or Crabbes (characters whose final lines were deceased). Also, according to JKR, there aren't any other Weasleys, Potters, Lupins, or Malfoys other than what has been noted. We will consider any children of OF AGE Adult Canons (such as one Theodore Lupin [but at current he is only 18 right now... so keep your timelines in mind!]).

Warning: Canon characters are held to the same requirements as original characters. If the character is formered due to inactivity, or given up due to inability to continue, it will be put back into the general pool and can be claimed by another writer. And, if your Original Character falls to the purge, your Canon Character will follow suit. No exceptions. If you are not role-playing as the character would, or doing something your character wouldn't, (ex; Hermione casting spells at muggles for fun) then you will be stripped of your privileges to play such canon. No exceptions, no argument, and no second chances.

So happy creating! Any questions, please PM one of the admins. The list will be open to current members (members who already have at least one character in good standing) for only for one month before we start advertising we carry canons.
