Plot & Premise
Welcome to RIDDIKULUS! We are a Hogwarts-centric rp set during 1991 in an alternative timeline. Here, the books never happened. Instead we are forging our own path through the Wizarding World set up for us.
Rather than having a big, overarching plot we're giving you the freedom to do anything at all with your characters. Want to be the next dark lord? Get recruiting! Want to start a revolution for the acceptance of magical creatures? Start handing out those badges. The world is your oyster.
We are incredibly character and story focused here on Riddikulus. So much so, that things work a bit differently. For one, we are very big on immersion, we have no discord, no plot pages & the only want ads are for family requests. Another thing we do a bit different is we don't pre-plan our threads, all interactions happen organically and all threads are open. Anyone at any time can barge into your thread (within reason! hufflepuffs would not be in the slytherin common room for example).
All of your characters friends, enemies, loves & acquaintances will happen naturally as you roleplay. We hope that you will enjoy this challenge and it adds a level of fun to your playing as you dust off those improvisation skills with us.
A GROWING WORLD • Hogwarts is the only area open at this time but more areas will open up for events & sub-plots that we throw in. Hogsmeade weekends will run as an event, while they won't be only up for a weekend in real life time it will still be a limited time event. As the site progresses & it comes time for the seventh years to graduate, eventually the whole Wizarding World will unfold along with you.
SECRETS • There are many more mysteries at Hogwarts than what was presented in the books, discover all the secrets Hogwarts has to offer & keep an eye on hat pesky Peeves. Mischief Managed is our NPC account to guide you to discovering these secrets & jump starting events.
ATTEND CLASSES • Professors can actually teach classes and have characters attend, we have a couple guides on this both for Professors and for Students interested in participating. Classes are meant to be fun, a way to earn house points and provide other ways for you to develop and play your characters.
PLAYING QUIDDITCH • Being on the quidditch team is more than just a title for your character, you will actually get to play the game! This will be done with a dice roll system that we will roll out closer to our first match.
HOUSE CUP COMPETITION • At the end of each year which ever house has the most house points will be awarded the House Cup. The winning house will have their colours decorated all over the sites skin to honour their victory. See our current standings as well as how to earn them here
