EVENT: Winds of Change

[modofthehat]

Spring is in the air, children. The weather is changing and though it's still fairly chilly, there's certainly a feeling of transition in and around the school. Of course, it's not limited to the halls of Hogwarts! Springtime is a big deal for many wizards, particularly those in a more..traditional sort of magic. When change is in the air, many witches and wizards will seek a voice of guidance to take them along the right paths. Past lives in particular offer a great deal of information many curious minds may delve into.

As such, many curious minds had gathered together in Hogsmeade for a brief but enlightening festival. Perhaps too enlightening for the students, as the professors seem quite keen to ban them from attending. This isn't your mother's carnival, my friends. This is a summoning festival. Many methods of magic are passed around and not all of them are quite as safe as one would hope.

On the final day of the festival a large seance was held between a considerable number of these funky wizards, enough to generate an incredible amount of magic between all of them. However, in an attempt to contact themselves from alternate universe, they managed to being about a wind of change more powerful than any of them had ever dreamed of. The effects spread throughout Hogsmeade and even made its way to Hogwarts, bringing about an incredible summoning enough to draw alternate selves from any realm.


In case the story fluff wasn't clear enough, this will be a CANON SELVES EVENT   running from the 20th to the 23rd of April!. The selves from an alternate universe will be your characters canon selves and bodies. So if your character is a crazy, green alien in canon? Yup. They can be a crazy, green alien. There will be varying effects, given that some characters are more volatile than others and obviously they are not free to wander about killing people. For example, Thor could be canon Thor. He could be buff and manly....and have the brain of 14 year old Thor. OR he could be 14 year old Thor with the brain of regular Thor. The possibilities are endless!!!!

You're free to opt out, as per usual, but we encourage involvement!
