New and confused? The New Player's Guide houses information that will help you get settled on Magical Hogwarts during your first few days. Additionally, you're welcome to come here and introduce yourself, spam, chat, and hang out while working on your sheet.

To start playing on Magical Hogwarts, all members must have an approved character sheet. For more information on creating your character's profile, check within. This is also where you'll go to get your character approved.

The Established Family Background (EFB) system has been developed to give an outline of social status within the characters on the board and to ensure that there is a wide variety of professions portrayed in the role play forums. Not all characters are required to have an EFB, however if your character comes from an influential or rich background they will require one.

The forum is where you can claim a model for your character, request account deletion, archive or unarchive your character, view the class roster and MH/canon timelines, or request a badge for your accounts!

Hogwarts is a seven-story stone castle with four high towers and one-hundred-and-forty-two staircases. The castle itself is imbued with magic and over the many, many years has become semi-sentient, known to protect itself and its inhabitants.

The Hogwarts grounds contain a large lake teeming with magical wildlife, courtyards and greenhouses, the Quidditch Pitch, and the Dark Forest, which is strictly off-limits to unsupervised students.

Hogsmeade is a picturesque village with cottages and shops, with enchanted candles hanging in the trees during the holidays. Visits are restricted to 3rd years and above.

The Beauxbatons Academy is a beautiful and palacial building. It is bright and welcoming.

Fields and gardens cover the Beauxbatons grounds in Southern France.

Where the Alpine foothills meet the Mediterranean Sea lies the bustling wizarding port city of Chatoeil. Only a fifteen minute walk from Beauxbatons, the elegant cobblestoned city is a favorite haunt of students and wealthy holiday makers as well as the home of artists, performers, and merchants alike.

Temporary home of the Beauxbatons Academy. (from December 5th until further notice)

Come explore the many areas of Durmstrang including the Grand Hall, Common Rooms, Dormitories, Classrooms, and Miscellaneous rooms.

The sea, the sands, and the mountainous range of Döttrar Vik surrounding the school.

The wizarding village closest to Durmstrang, named for the Siren tribe that lives nearby.

An expansive granite castle with extensive woodwork, open air hallways, and lots of natural light.

Dense evergreen forests, rocky streams, and varying elevations include small level clearings, gentle sloping hills, and dangerous vertical cliffs. Well defined hiking trails wind their way around the mountain. Don't miss the abandoned and haunted Puritan settlement a little ways down the mountain.

Shackamaxon is an underground town accessed via floo or through an enchanted stairway system only visible by magic, just north of the school.

All other areas in the British Isles except Hogwarts and Hogsmeade. Hogwarts students and most staff live here.

For all locations outside Britain, here you will find the homes of the Beauxbatons, Durmstrang, Ilvermorny, Castelobruxo, Koldovstoretz, Mahoutokoro, and Uagadou students and alumni.

For letters written to and from penpals.
