.:: PHOENIX RISING ::.
A Marauders Site for Advanced RPers
We have many canons available and are accepting originals - students as well as teachers.
Everyone knows that getting older means more changes. That is what faces the Marauders as they enter their seventh and final year at Hogwarts. Besides preparing for the NEWTS, they must also deal with typical teenage drama that goes on inside every school.
Sirius attracts hordes of girls, including the naive first years bedazzled by his smoldering looks. He has grown to enjoy the attention, and flirting has become a reflex. Will Sirius be the eternal womanizer, or will his heart be tamed by someone special?
Lupin, always the reserved and perceptive one, must deal with his werewolf affliction. His generous and loyal friends will obviously help him through, though. Will he be able to move past his unfortunate condition and accept who he is?
Poor Peter, he has been constantly overshadowed by his friends. Until now, he has been the follower, the unimaginative fourth wheel, the side-kick. But recently, his powers have been getting stronger, and he is starting to prove himself to be a competent wizard. The question is, how has he done it? Have the Marauders heard the rumors swirling of Wormtail's sinister loyalties? Or are those just, well, rumors, and nothing more?
Contrary to everybody's expectations, James has been appointed to the position of Head Boy. Lily, the Head Girl, was also bemused when she found out who she'd be working with. Perhaps Dumbledore has seen something in James that even she hasn't? So far Lily has managed to convice herself that James Potter is the last person on earth that she could ever see herself with. Now, though, as she spends more time with him, she sees that her previous thoughts might be wrong.
To add to all of this, Voldemort’s power grows with each passing day as well as his number of followers. The people of the wizarding world are being faced with the question of joining the dark lord, or risk the chance of losing everything they hold dear. Students and teachers begin to grow more weary as the trust that was once there begins to disappear and friendships and strained.
How will Hogwarts be affected by the changing times?
