It's time for a summer roleplaying contest! This one is to encourage plots and threads with lots of different people, so there are some specifications. And even when it's not stated that it has to be with a character you haven't roleplayed with before, it's strongly encouraged! (And that's not just that your particular character hasn't roleplayed with, but you in general.)
-- You must reply to the thread at least 5 times each for it to count (so 10 posts in the thread).
-- You can only claim one per writer you're roleplaying with. So for example, I can only claim one of the tasks with Sarah, one with Xandra, one with Zhang, etc. I can't claim 2 with Sarah.
-- You can only claim one task per thread (no doubling up if it could qualify as more than 1).
-- Threads started before today can count, but the 10 posts must be from today onward.
REWARDS
The point is to complete the most tasks. (:
First Place - 1,000 Sickles; 50 House Points
Second Place - 500 Sickles; 25 House Points
Third Place - 250 Sickles; 15 House Points
Participation - For every task completed, you get 25 Sickles and 5 House Points
This will go until September 30th.
GENERAL
-- go on a blind date
-- roleplay with a character you never have before and change your relationship through the events of the thread (ex. strangers to friends)
-- kiss a character you never have roleplayed with before
-- share a secret with a character you've never roleplayed with before
-- teach/tutor a new skill to someone privately that you are great with (even if you're not great for your level, a seventh year tutoring a second year would be fine too)
-- try to get rid of a boggart together
-- accidentally eat chocolates infused with a love potion and become infatuated with the first person you see (it's charmed to only work for 2 hours)
-- accidentally drink a forgetfulness potion you thought was blueberry juice and lose your memories from the last 12 hours - someone you've never roleplayed with before helps you get on your feet
-- you took an aging potion but it backfired and you look 30 years older than what you wanted it to be, the other person is trying to help you fix it but they aren't any good at potions
-- after an adventure the night before you can barely remember, you both wake up and can only speak in mermish (feel free to interject flash backs in italics in your thread about the night before)
HOGWARTS
-- get caught in a bad situation in the forbidden forest
-- try to find the owner of a lost pet who keeps following you around
-- get trapped in devil's snare in the dungeons
-- wind up in the hospital wing for a week and develop feelings for the person next to you through conversation, also there for a few days
-- get stuck in detention with a character you've never roleplayed with before (both students)
-- you discover that a mirror is actually a doorway into a secret room and go inside but get trapped in there together
-- you overhear the prefects saying the password to their bathroom and sneak in later when it's empty, but then when you're going swimming, one of them comes inside
HOLT'S CASTLE
-- rescue someone who nearly falls from the parapet
-- get lost in one of the dormitory towers (the stairs can be confusing and rooms aren't labelled)
-- after a particularly large earthquake, try to calm down the owls together in the owlery
-- sneak out for a midnight swim
-- discover that some gnomes are ruining the vegetable patch - it's up to you two to get rid of them
-- you accidentally exploded your room from a magical experiment and have to share a room with someone you've never roleplayed with before for the next week
-- you go out flying but one of you has their broom cursed and keeps pulling you towards the barrier
YESTER CASTLE
-- explore the forest and find a magical creature that shouldn't be there (dangerous or not - up to you)
-- be tasked together to take inventory of the wine in the cellar but get drunk together instead
-- have a race (flying or running) between the estate and the castle - a high stakes bet of your choosing
-- come across a pack of wolves in the forest
-- get stuck in a large web that belongs to a medium-sized solo acromanula
-- one of you is a werewolf and forgot to take your potion, the other is trying to subdue you/prevent you from harming others
-- you find a baby creature in the forest with someone and you decide to raise it together in secret
