Messrs. Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot & Prongs would like to welcome you to the age of the pirates.

"Mr. Moony presents his compliments to you, and begs you to take a look at some plottage."
The year is 1978. The place is Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where Albus Dumbledore is Headmaster. The four pirates, Severus Snape, and Lily Evans are in the middle of their seventh and final year at Hogwarts, while outside of the school the Dark Lord Voldemort is gaining power and recruiting followers. Wizards and muggles alike are falling victim to his evil prowess, and terror is spreading through the Wizarding World like wildfire.
Three students were killed last year, all three in light of suspicious circumstances. Narcissa Black was scandalously tied up in the entire affair and suspected by many students to be the culprit. She was innocent, however, and the real criminal was never located.
Scandal blanketed Hogwarts like a thick fog. Remus Lupin had been dating Narcissa Black, a relationship that was fraught with difficulties, including Narcissa’s disapproving family and a strained relationship with the other pirates for Remus that continued until the relationship ended in the fall of the current term. Andromeda Black is falling apart due to the increasing pressure from her family to be a person she doesn’t want to be. James Potter is hopelessly chasing after Lily Evans who is denying any positive qualities within the boy. Peter Pettigrew has been gradually separating himself from the other three to pursue a forbidden love affair. With Remus now out of the way (and becoming heavily involved with his best friend, roommate, and fellow Marauder Sirius Black), Lucius Malfoy is starting after Narcissa, all the while thinking about Voldemort and getting the mark.
The others have also begun to take sides in the fight between good and evil...between The Order and Voldemort's dark regime. Several students now wear the Dark Mark. Friendships have been destroyed. Lines have been drawn. It's only a matter of time before Hogwarts and the Wizarding World alike are up in arms. With an attack on Hogsmead during the school’s Winter Social, those who haven’t been thinking of the war have been forced to open their eyes.
With the start of a new year, the students of Hogwarts and the outlying wizarding community have important decisions to make.
Do the walls of the great castle protect it's inhabitants, or has Voldemort's sinster presence penetrated deep within?
No one can be trusted. [/blockquote][/size][/font]

"Mr. Prongs agrees with Mr. Moony and would like to add some details."
MWPP pirates has been active consistently since July 2007. There are many canon characters currently available and OC's are welcome. We are seeking both student and adult characters. We are also expanding our out-of-school conflict between the Death Eaters and the Order of the Phoenix.
LITERACY & EXPERIENCE LEVEL NEEDED:
Intermediate-Advanced. Most of our players are quite literate, but we are open to letting relative beginners join and develop their skill as long as they make a significant effort. Players must be able to make posts meeting a minimum 150 word count, though most posts range between 250-600 words. We request that applicants have good grammar and spelling, be familiar with Proboards, and understand basic Role-Play rules, courtesy, and procedure.
"Mr. Padfoot would like to register his astonishment that you have read through all of that, and would like to say some more about the site."
The MWPP pirates RPG plotlines begin with canon and deviate as players see fit. We are not an AU RPG, so we do intend to keep things somewhat canon, however we do understand and support the desire to take liberties. We do not discriminate against anyone's personal 'shipping' preferences, and are open to allowing players to explore those as long as the characters can eventually return to canon.
We assume things to be true as they were at the end of the seven-book Harry Potter series written by J.K. Rowling, as well as all of her supplementary texts and interview revelations.
We invite anyone who is interested in a low-stress and fun pirates Era RPG to join us. Our staff is very friendly and open, our players are easy-going and dedicated, and our C-Box is active and entertaining on a nightly basis! We feature a simple, clean layout with multiple skin choices at the request of our current players. [/size]
