“I feel very strongly that there is a move to sanitise literature because we’re trying to protect children not from, necessarily, the grisly facts of life but from their own imaginations… And the child that has been protected from Dementors in fiction, I would argue, is much more likely to fall prey to them later in life in reality.” – J.K. Rowling on BBC Radio Dec. 10th 2005
The setting of this game is a mixture of three concepts. It is an Old World of Darkness game in which, instead of mages, there are Harry Potter witches and wizards and rather than having ‘just mortals’ we embrace Lovecraftian Mythos – or, to look at it another way, it’s a Harry Potter game in which mortals, vampires, werewolves, and faeries are much more than the simple stereotypes shown in the books!
Obviously, this takes a little bit of work, but it can lead to truly fun stories if we work together! In these pages, we will go over the basic house rules and setting information.
There is also a FAQ page that will hopefully address most common confusions, and a character creation guide with specific rules for various character types.
