Obscure Era - Riiiigh?

[OE Admin]

‘OBSCURE ERA,
…and the darkness shrouds the sun…

It’s 2317… [/font][/size]
…and it has been hundreds of years since any major Dark rising. Actually, this has been the longest streak of safety in the history of the wizarding world. Eventually people stopped waiting for something bad to happen. They started to focus on the arts, the advancement of spells, and the discovery of the old ways. Now witches and wizards are more informed than ever and it is showing clearly.

The Ministry is at its greatest point, being filled with young bright minds of exceptional skill and potential. The Aurors are more effective than ever and at any whisper of dark deeds they are dispatched and they eliminate the threat before much can be done. The Daily Prophet is no longer in the Ministry’s pocket, mostly because there is nothing to worry about. They report the news as they see it, whether that is good or bad.

Since the Ministry is younger and more refreshing than ever there is a higher tolerance of the “creatures” of the world. The vampires, werewolves, centaurs, goblins, and giants are not just tolerated; many of them have joined the rest of society and are allowed wands. The only creatures that still have their station are the house elves and that is by choice. They are required to be paid, now.

The advancement of potions has taken away the liability of the werewolves and vampires. The Wolfsbane potion is more effective than ever, nearly be able to cure the werewolves. In time there will probably be a cure. As for the vampires, the Nightshade potion relieves them of their thirst for blood, but it does not help them against the weakening of the sun or their strength.

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is still a fortress and probably always will be. However, since the great Albus Dumbledore there has not been any note worthy Headmasters or Headmistresses. Then again, no leader of the school has had to face what he did. Not until now.

There have been more unexplained deaths in the wizarding world. The Ministry doesn’t like the threat that this could entail, but they have no reason to believe that there is another who is picking up Voldemort’s reigns. But there is and when the true terror shows himself the world will be at his or her mercy. No one knows what he or she truly is, but they will know, and they will not be able to save themselves. They’ve grown weak during their sunny life…
