Hi, welcome to Trio's Hogwarts. If you're having trouble figuring out what to do, you're looking in the right place.
So, here's what you do to get set-up.
1. Read the Rules and the Backstory to get an understanding of the site.
2. Post a bio in the Biography Bastion
--If it's approved, your bio will be marked with approved. Then move to step 3.
--If there's something wrong, it'll be moved to the Waiting List with the reason it's unapproved. Fix it and then PM me to recheck it. Once it's moved back to the Biography Bastion, you can move to step 3.
3. Post in the Sorting Hat. You can choose from one of the following:
-Shopkeeper (Own your own shop in Trio's Alley, Hogsmeade or somewhere around the Wizarding World)
-Job (Ministry, St. Mungo's or somewhere else)
-Staff for Trio's Hogwarts (read special notice)
-Student (Ages 11-17)
{{If you want to be a Book Character or a Scrap Character, you start at Step 3}}
4. Have fun role-playing.
Optional things to be aware of:
1. Celebrity Claim: This allows you to claim a celebrity as your character. Be warned, your celebrity claim can be challenged if you're inactive for more than a month without notification.
2. If you want a break from Role-play, there are special boards dedicated to that here in the Impressions board.
Other important notations:
1. Don't wait around for permission to do something. If it's not prohibited by common sense or the rules, go for it. If there's something wrong with it, one of the mods will let you know.
2. If you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask others (ie veterans- many have been here over a year-, staff or myself.) We're here to help you.
