Adopting Characters
Some of the applications up for adoption aren't current - meaning there could be information missing or a new template has been updated on the site. It will be your job, should you take on an adopted character - to read through all the information and fine tune it to suit the current site year and fix up any discrepancies which may occur.
Minor characters who don't have a lot of information about them from the Harry Potter series open up opportunities to write a history for them. If the information simply isn't there, you are allowed to make it up. If it sounds logical, go for it!
1. Read through the bio and make sure you understand the character before showing an interest in playing them.
2. Once you have picked the character you'd like to play, please register with a new account and copy the bio to a the Character Creation board as a new thread.
3. Once posted, OoM staff will review the application and accept or deny based on changes made.
Abandoning Characters
Have a character you're looking to get rid of? Don't just delete them! They may have relationships or significance to other players on the site! Try putting them up for adoption.
1. Make sure you're positive about giving up your character. This means you will have no more rights to that character, only the knowledge credit for creating them to begin with.
2. Message a staff member to let me know of your intention of releasing the character. We will move the application to the Adoption board as soon as possible.
3. Once the application has been moved, and someone has expressed interest in the character, they will proceed with the adoption process.
