Xmas Invasion - The Prelude

[TheJoker?]

After the death of the dark lord at the hands of one, Harold James Potter it seemed that things would be fine, there was finally going to be peace and prosperity in the land, the Ministry was revamped with Kingsley Shacklebolt at the helm, Minerva McGonagall became the new Headmistress of Hogwarts School of Witchraft and Wizardry and all seemed well in the wizarding world.

Then is struck, some ancient curse put in place by the dark lord in case he was ever defeated, a most dark of magics, a plague that struck down the one who vanquished the dark lord and then spread like wildfire. (This plague eventualls kills off all the named book wizards)

There seemed like no hope for many, those closest to Harry Potter where struck down the fastest; being killed almost instantly by the curse, a magical cross between the bubonic plague and dragon pox. Then one man came forth with a solution, Octulus Lestrange came forther wielding a sceptre that had a power that was feared but also respected and wanted by many around the world. He cast a spell to save all of those who had never met Harry James Potter from the curse, the spell took it's toll on him and left him very weak. After this act though the curse died out, there had been a huge cull in the numbers of wizards left in Britain.

There where however enough wizards left over to keep the magic going. Hogwarts was reformed with some differences, instead of one head of the school two would lead the school, one headmaster and one headmistress, Trinity Lestrange and Jay Trelawney helped to found the new school, in the plague and the turmoil afterwards the original building had been destroyed so they set about building a new school, along with Leon Monsafa as High Inquisitor, Leon Brooks as Deputy Headmaster, Liberty Steele as Deputy Headmistress, Fabian Peverell as Senior Staff Advisor, and, after the departure of Jay Trelawney, Rennik Fairfellow.

The ministry was overhauled, after saving the wizarding world from the curse Octulus Lestrange went on to become the minister of magic, under him the ministry became like a well oiled machine, efficient to the point of being unnatural.

Thie worked well for a few years, there was a minor period of depression as a new wizard stepped into play to proclaim himself as the new Dark Lord. This new Dark Lord led a small reign of terror that eventually fizzled out to nothing. Two groups also sprung into being, the Order of the Phoenix and the Order of the Serpent these two groups attempted to gain power and influence.

Now, with Octolus Lestrange dead, and brand new Senior Staff members arriving, it seems that one way or another, dark wizards are still around, planning another attack , with this curse still put out, no trouble will come along, not for a while anyway

We don't even have a d/L

this is a silly story line, we should appoint a D/L

James I would thank you not to call my writing talent "silly" just because you are throwing a hissy fit over the fact you can't be Dark Lord.

We don't NEED a Dark Lord at the moment and throwing little hissy fits will not solve the problem.

James, shut up.
It'd do the whole universe - including the aliens - a favor.
Thanks, darling.
