@emelicious Wolves aren't a legal pet at Hogwarts sadly. I'm
allowing Snakes, Toads, Owls, Cats, and other common pets. You're
character is accepted though!
For now, I want to stick with what I said before due to trying to
stick with what the book said about Hogwarts, but maybe if everyone
else is okay with you having a dog then I'll allow it. I don't want
anyone to think it is unfair.
(This comment is totally irrelevant now that you already came to an
agreement but I feel like adding my two cents anyway.) I wouldn't
think it would have been 'unfair' per se but I can see how some
people could get upset by it. However, what I think it would have
been is 'weird' and 'unfitting'. Like Darkness_Arisen, I'm more
comfortable sticking close to the canon so someone having a dog as
a pet would feel completely out of place. Also, with one such twist
it's easier to allow others to follow and things might end up being
ridiculous in the end if that makes any sense. :p
@emelicious: I think you can just sort yourself like the
rest of us. Just have Mcgongall call Clover's name yourself and
then have the hat announce which house Clover will be in. If you're
unsure about how to go with it, just look at other people's earlier
posts and how they 'sorted themselves'. For example, here's how
Darkness_Arisen herself did it and the rest of us went with a
similar thing:
"Ravyn bounced, waiting in anticipation until her name was
called. "Smith, Ravyn" Ravyn felt a surge of butterflies fly into
her stomach, but she shoved them away and made her way to the
sorting hat. The hat was silent for a few moments, before calling
out, "Well there is no doubt about this one. HUFFLEPUFF!" Ravyn
went right to her table when the hat was taken off her head. She
had a huge grin plastered onto her face, even though from what she
heard a lot of people made fun of Hufflepuff. She didn't care. She
was just glad to have the opportunity to even be in this
school" (^I hope Darkness doesn't mind I used
her as an example.)
I hope this wasn't confusing for you and I could help. :]
Unease swirled and churned in Jada's stomach.
"Riversong,Jada!"
She made her way to the stool and placed the hat on her head.
A small voice spoke in her ear."Hm,you'd do good in Ravenclaw,you
would...But it seems you'd do better in GRYFFINDOR!"
She took the hat off and made her way to the Gryffindor
table,feeling like she was melting.
@Capricorn: I think you posted that in the wrong thread.
;]
Also, regarding that, Darkness you should probably rename this
thread "Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft and Wizardry (Set-up)"
or "Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft and Wizardry (OOC)"
and then rename the
RP thread "Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft and Wizardry (RP)"
or "Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft and Wizardry (IC)".
That way people wouldn't confuse the two and it would be clear
which thread is which. :3
