Available characters have a background color! To place a hold, comment with the character and PB you would like held. A list of taken PBs can be found here.
Holds last 7 days with 1 extension of 4 days (which you'll have to ask for). We're challenge-friendly due to the length of holds.
Make sure you're familiar with the game's set-up (here) and read up on further plot details (here).
We are currently not accepting holds on original characters or Ministry-aligned characters (as we're in the process of phasing the ministry out). We are also not accepting applications for diplomats.
In processing apps (marked PENDING instead of having a date under 'until' and with a strike through them), can't be challenged.
Only 1 character can be held at a time, and you'll have to wait 2 weeks before picking up a second character. After this time, you'll have to ask mods whether you can pick up a third (which are reserved for very extremely active members).
Only current members can pick up temps/ characters abroad (as it's harder to start off with them).
With the exception of Severus Snape, try to avoid affiliating your character with another organization (ex. Order and Death Eaters who are also ministry workers) at this time.
While you're allowed 3 characters and 1 temporary character max, your characters should all have different alignments. Some exceptions may be made for characters involved with multiple organizations.
Due to time constraints, we no longer accept requests to re-write applications unless we request them.
Use the FAQs! You can find more information about character limits and what characters are and are not allowed, challenges, and PBs there.
