If you could create the perfect world for House Elves to be safe and live free, what would that world be like? |

Elijah Wright Department of Mysteries | Haha oh my gosh. I need pages to answer this one. But for now I'll keep it simple.
If I could create a perfect world for my house elf ... well, it really depends on the elf. My elf is 2"8, so everything in the world would be very short so she can reach it. There would also be a lot of blue, because it's her favorite color. Now, my house elf Gama likes her work, so I'd make sure to messy up some things for her. 
More to come later! |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Kai Riichiro Jameson Fifth Year | Ohhh man good question... soo much to say...
I think if all elves were free to do as they like they might still want to take care of everyone... it might just be something they like doing... but I think they would help on a vastly larger scale if they were all free to do as they please... But I agree with ^ a lot of houeselfs are short so things would need to be sized for them and all... I had somthing else to put here but as of this second I forgot it sooo....yeah I will comeback to that later...
You know what would be cool... If a house elf made it really high in the government and what not... |

If I could create the perfect world for my house elf…
Well, I have three house elves but one of them is just a baby. My house elf Sally loves pink and giant overstuffed chairs. I would make sure she had a giant pink chair in every room of her house. Yes, I said her house. Since Sally and Ralph are married and have a baby, Charlie, they need their own place. Granted it’s the guest house behind my house, but they love it just the same.
Now, the perfect thing for Ralph would be to have all the counters in his workshop lowered a couple of feet so he would be able to work on his projects a bit easier. He doesn’t care much for cleaning the house, but he does love running errands, so I would make sure he had a better way to get around.
As for baby elf Charlie, I don’t know what he likes just yet. I would want to make sure that Sally and Ralph could spend as much time as they wanted with their baby. I think that would make Charlie very happy.

Well, I would creat a world for House Elves where they were made the center of attention. Everything would revolve around them for a change. Anything that they would need or want would be provided for them at their whim. I know how much House Elves like to work so I would create a House Elf amusement park that catered to that. It would have rides,games, and such that were work themed. There would be a cook off, and cleaning contests and all sorts of fun stuff for them.  More later.  |

Hmm, let's see a perfect world for my Elf Misty...well since she loves potatoe chips for some reason I would always keep one room full of all her favorite flavours so she'd never run out. Since she loves doing homework even though I'm not in school, I would allow her to become a study-buddy to some children and allow her to do the work for them, but I would ask that she takes a break everyday at 3pm so we can watch Relic Hunter since that's one of her favorite shows.
Her world would be beautiful; great oak trees where she can climb up and watch the sun set, which would always show a picture of a House Elf smiling and waving at the other Elfs. There would never be a need for work, unless the Elf wanted it, then one space would open up and they would get good pay and vacation time.
Hm...that's all I can think of for now, be back later with more. |

Shane O. Dalton Magical Law Enforcement | Hmm ... I'd make my House-Elf's dream come true. Everything she wants and likes will be right by her side. If she wants a beach-like home, she gets it. If she wants something odd, she'll get it. It'd be full of all sorts of clothes. Everything from aprons to zippers. (Zippers are clothes right? Well, now they are!) |

Pippa Havishaw | For my house elf I'd make everything dirty because most house elves adore cleaning. I would also have some house elf acrors because I think there's a need for famous house elves. I would also make Dobby the Minister of Magic, but that's some wishful thinking on my part. But hey this is my world and Dobby will be Minister of Magic!!! |

Rhiannon Knight Department of Mysteries | Oh and in my perfect world for House Elves there would be a school for them to learn all sorts of things, kind of like a Hogwart's except for House Elves. And there woulf be Humans in the kitchens that serve them instead of the other way around. I would help out, I can make a killer bowl of Mac and cheese!  |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Aurora Kali Rissa Third | I think in a perfect world, there would be a Six-Flags kinda place for all HE to go. Two days a week it would be open with no cost to the HE. They could ride roller coasters and go down huge water slides. They could eat all the cotton candy and hotdogs they wish. All the games would be free and every HE could go home with their choice of prize. (Man sign my kids up for that as well!!) I know my house elf Stormy would love it! |

Emily Castior Magical Creatures | Oh, just thought of another one; a fountain that only served the drinkers deepest craving. If my Elf craved let's say caffine, then the fountain would turn into a fountain of coffee, with an endless supply for her to drink. There would also be food in all the kitchens, which never ran out, and a nice confortable bed which never got lumpy and stayed warm through the year. You see, my Elf likes being warm so I'd need to make sure she's comfortable.
There would be servants who would serve her, but they would also get two days off a week, a big paycheck if they wanted and a weeks vacation every season. There would be nightly concerts which she could go too and no one would make fun of her for her large droopy ears. |

Rhiannon Knight Department of Mysteries | While babysitting my niece and nephew I realized that a perfect world for a house elf would be a house full of toddlers! 
Because all I have done in the last 2 hours is clean, pick up after, make food, clean again, take out garbage, make more food, and clean some more... it is a viscious cycle it tis...

Jake Reilly Accidents & Catastrophes | Ok, so I never shared what I think would be the perfect world for a House Elf. Well it would be one where the Elves would be surrounded by only the nicest of wizards. I think perhaps in a tropical destination - kind of like an all inclusive resort. It's a great place for house elves and wizards to live together in harmony and a great place for those house elves who choose to be free. Just imagine the places they would have to go and relax. As well as an unlimited amount of activities for them to keep themselves busy.
This resort would also cater to those house elves who still chose to work. There would be plenty of places for them to work at including kitchens, bedrooms, dining halls, laundry rooms, pools to clean, ect...
We want to make the house elves happy, so we'll do whatever we can to cater to there every need. House Elves around the world will want to come running to his safe haven. Ahhh if only it were real!  |

Jordan Woodrow | You all have some great ideas. I like the house elf shopping mall. Everything HE sized, so they wouldn't have to make their own clothes. I also like the idea of a HE day. I'm not sure about a once a week thing, but once a year to celebrate them like we do Mothers day and Fathers day. A big HE party. |

Elijah Wright Department of Mysteries | I agree with that! Every house elf deserves the chance to relax, but I bet some of them wouldn't like ot do it for too long. It's in their nature to like to work ... so maybe leave a few jobs lying around? |

Emily Castior Magical Creatures | Oh! their own hockey leaque! Yes, we'd watch the House elves skate around the ice, scoring goals, it would be fun for them plus great excersize as well. If they wanted, they could work on the teams, designing the logos and do everything themselves  My House Elf would love that! |
