Hey All
I don't know about you, but I feel like we could deal with a bit more activity. So I think the thing we need to do is advertise until there are no more sites left to advertise on. Here is a list of ways you can help.
1) Advertisement :: Here is the code for our site ad. Post it everywhere you can, but make sure you obey the rules of the board you want to advertise on. If that requires a backlink, please PM me their advertising code.

[b][center]From Harry Potter And The Prisoner of Azkaban[/center][/b]
[i]There was a terrible snarling noise. Lupin’s head was lengthening. So was his body. His shoulders were hunching. Hair was sprouting visibly on his face and hands, which were curling into clawed paws. Crookshanks’s hair was on end again; he was backing away.
As the werewolf reared, snapping it’s long jaws, Sirius disappeared from Harry’s side. He had transformed. The enormous, bearlike dog bounded forward. As the werewolf wrenched itself free of the manacle binding it, the dog seized it about the neck and pulled it backward, away from Ron and Pettigrew. They were locked, jaw to jaw, claws ripping at each other.
Harry stood, transfixed by the sight, too intent upon the battle to notice anything else. It was Hermione’s scream that altered him.
Pettigrew had dived for Lupin’s dropped wand. Ron, unsteady on his bandaged leg, fell. There was a bang, a burst of light, and Ron lay motionless on the ground.
“Expelliarmus!” Harry yelled, pointing his wand at Pettigrew; Lupin’s wand flew high into the air and out of sight. “Stay where you are!” He yelled, running forward.
Too late. Pettigrew had transformed. Harry saw his bald tail whip through the manacle on Ron’s outstretched arm and head a scurrying through the grass.
There was a howl and a rumbling growl; Harry turned to see the werewolf taking flight; it was galloping into the forest.
“Sirius, he’s gone, Pettigrew transformed!” Harry yelled.
Black was bleeding; there were gashes across his muzzle and back, but at Harry’s word he scrambled up again and in an instant, the sound of his paws faded to silence as he pounded away across the grounds. [/i]
[b]But what if Sirius didn’t get up?[/b] What if Sirius’s injuries from the Werewolf were so extensive that he was unable to continue the fight. What if Sirius Black, Padfoot, died trying to protect his godson?
Our main plot explores that alternate story that would have unfolded if Sirius Black had perished. Our role playing game picks up during Harry Potter’s fifth year at Hogwarts, while the tyrant Dolores Umbridge was made Headmistress. How will the absence of Sirius Black change the course of events, especially during the battle at the Deparment of Mysteries?[/size]
