General Information:

The little City of Greens is a thriving college town set in a beautiful cliffside peninsula in North Yorkshire, England. To muggles, it's your regular little college town, but to the wizarding world; it's one of the most prestigious Academies in Northern England; taking witches and wizards to a higher level of learning. Witches and wizards from all over the world dream of attending such a find academy, but only the best of the best will make it through to graduation day. Are you up for a challenge? http://i254.photobucket.com/albums/hh87/fallingpettals/settle02big.jpg

Greens is an open RP site that is loosely Harry Potter “based”. We use the word based lightly because we have no site plot; we are simply a town where wizards and witches reside, where parents send their budding young students for a fine education. You can set up any cannon character that is not already taken, as long as it fits into our time frame, please ask for clarification if necessary. You are also welcome to set up one of many creature applications, from werewolves to centaurs. We would like to make the board interesting by adding in unique additions and see what people can come up with. We are hard on creature applications though so keep that in mind when posting up your application, you MUST make it good. http://i254.photobucket.com/albums/hh87/fallingpettals/9905_02_13---Staithes--North-Yorksh.jpg

Current Events:

It is frigid cold in the borough of Greens, with January drawing to an end. Snow is lacing the homes and buildings in Greens with white fluff and icicles hang from the roof tops. Brave souls who wish to weather the storm find enjoyment in winter sport throughout the countryside, from snowshoeing to ice skating on the lake.

Two rogue vampires have been stirring up all kinds of trouble, murdering students and ministry officials at will since the beginning of the school year. The female, Sydney Fulke was apprehended in her lair and dealt with by a young and up and coming Jr. Auror, Ethan Daniels, while Victor Reagle, her sire is still at large. Victor fled Greens on New Years Eve after a duel that left Junior Auror James Potter maimed and in the hospital for two weeks. James has since been released and is recovering, but there is no word on whether or not he will suffer permanent damage from the attack. It is rumored that Victor was last seen in Highlands, where Constance Riverdale, a former student of Green’s Academy was born and raised and where Constance fled to in her escape from the vampire. It has been confirmed the Veela is currently safe and in hiding while ministry officials have been staking out the area on the lookout for the rogue vampire.

Several new victims of Victor and Sydney were uncovered when Ethan Daniels and Lily Potter stumbled upon their lair in mid January. An investigation will proceed to process the cave and uncover the identities of all the victims. This brings the confirmed death toll to six at the hand of these vicious vampires, so please continue to use caution when traveling at night.

Wolves adorned in sheep’s clothing have been spotted wandering about seeking out the week and vulnerable and recruiting others that share the same love for darkness. These groups of dark wizards call themselves the Reapers and have begun to make their mark on the small town of Greens. A student was attacked on school grounds by one of the followers of Lord Vladimir and has recovered, but all residents are warned to keep their wits about them. Harry Potter has started dueling classes to teach both students and adults how to defend themselves against this dark force, so please sign up for those classes.

In other news, we have some budding young love that will enjoy the up and coming Grand Re-Opening of the University Night Club, that was temporarily shut down when the owner was murdered by the new dark lord. It was rumored that Larson Reynolds left his estate including the nightclub to Hermione Weasley who declined interview in the matter. According to county records a Warranty Deed transferring title from Weasley to Harry Potter’s godson Teddy Lupin indicating the rumor is true. If Potter has anything to do with it the party, it is sure to be hopping so don’t miss it!

According to reliable sources, it is also rumored that the Malfoy’s have purchased a Manor in Delshire Cove and that both of their kids are attending Greens Academy. Draco Malfoy will join Ronald Weasley and Harry Potter and their families in the once quiet town of Greens, so that should be an interesting turn of events in and of itself. Residents wonder if that famous rivalry stills exists or if Draco has learned to put his differences aside and joins hands with the Potters and the Weasley’s in the fight against Vladimir.

History:

Green’s is a unique quaint little village in Northern England that has been the subject of a full scale manhunt once before, the grounds shrouded by a very dark past. A very conniving vampire stalked these parts about 200 years ago and took the lives of hundreds of Green's residents. It is said you may happen upon the ghost of one of those long lost victims roaming through the forest. The vampire that took the lives of so many was never captured and may still be at large. It is said he likes to revisit old haunts, so he could return one day and you could be on his list.

We have many job openings, and a really cool way to play Quidditch, that involves all members. We just ask that you play but the rules and have fun and you decide the rest.
