Hey, I was thinking about Shakespeare and think that it's time to do something that is nothing near Romeo and Juliet (for those Twilight fans). Here's the plot...

Joshua Gray, a Hogwarts fifth year, isn't having the best of time at Hogwarts. The Headmaster has died and he suspects something, or someone behind it. Everyone saw it happen the year before when the poor headmaster fell at the podium the last day of the school year. But no one doubted, no one dreamed. The new headmaster seemed to get everyone on his side (mostly Julius Flitwick, the hardest, and toughest professor at the school was even joining him). The whole school was changing. Many professors were fired and rules were appearing daily. And then one day, Joshua asks his friend John if he remembered the last headmaster. "What last headmaster, there hasn't been one for forty years." Is Joshua going mad? (If you haven't made the connection, it's Hamlet). He must find the killer and teach the whole school a lesson.

I'd like posts to be atleast one or two paragraphs long, thank you.

Have you gotten bored of the same Romeo and Juliet idea? Well, join this! I wish for this to be a fast paced rp, so be commited! Join!

I join! I don't know who as though...maybe Ophelia? I've never seen or read Hamlet though...

Don't worry, I'll explain it later. Ophelia is good, she is a nice person but ends up crazy like Hamlet in the play and drowns picking flowers. I am hoping for a better future for Ophelia in this one, but you would have to choose to be her... :-) Please, invite people!

Alexander was married at one point however he lost his wife to Dragon Pox. They had a young son who died as well.

Hey, am I still the head of Ravenclaw? I am doing the bio, but you might have to wait a while...

If iheartdan isn't still in for Ophelia i'd gladly be her
Something fun too, like maybe a professor/professor romance not allowed? aha i dunno. Huffie HOH, female.

Hey! I KNEW I would LUV this plot cause you always make the total BEST RP's, sneeze! Can I be John or Ophelia?

Thank you, griffindorgurl. I'd be glad if you could be Ophelia. If you want you can be John too if you want.
Lania, I can permit it. You can be a prof. Thank you!

Hi, this sounds like a brilliant RP. Fantastic, Potter and Shakespeare combined.
Would it be possible for me to play John Windlow please. I'm unfamiliar with Twilight but I've just finished a dissertation on Shakespeare's Villains, a chapter of which was on Hamlet. I assume John is Horatio?

I'll just take Ophelia, best deatheater can take John!

You have assumed right, best deatheater. You surely can be John! Thank you! I might even have to ask you for help on this. I need bio's now that we have the main characters. Start sending them in!

I take it Joshua is a Gryffindor. Shall I make John a Gryffindor too or Ravenclaw?

Name- John Windlow
Age- 15
Year- 5th
House-
Heritage- Half-Blood. Son of a pureblood wizard and a muggleborn mother.
Appearance: Like this but without so much grey:

Personality/History- Very studious. He has a logical mind and is reasonable, he has already had an article he had written on the restriction on transfiguration published in the book 'Transfiguration Tragedies'. He is incredibly loyal to Joshua. He is especially good at transfiguration. He was brought up with both parents writing books on different branches of magic.
