In the aftermath of the Second Wizarding War, the Malfoy family didn't have many options in the career world. With the money that was left, Lucius ventured into the stock market world and Draco, after much planning (and a little begging), opened Ame Noir, the wizarding world's first club in the heart of London.

After three successful years and two more locations in France and Germany, Draco was ready to conquer America. Boston was the place to start. The city had a thriving magical community and lots of old world charm. Ame Noir Boston was opened in 2004 and has been the favourite of young witches and wizards for five years running.

Ame Noir is an AU Harry Potter-based game set in present day Boston. All original characters with a player driven plot. Be a member of the staff or one of it's regular patrons, be anything you'd like. Ame is many unique lives connected by one bar. Opening soon, we'll save you a seat.

Update on MA thesis on HP fan fiction

2009-05-09T14:11:46Z

Hi!

With this message, I would like to thank all of you who answered my questionnaire at http://fanfiction.frontexperts.com (see the original message below) and have given me helpful feedback. Many of you who sent me emails with comments let me know that my questionnaire did not fully embrace your experience with fan fiction. Because a survey is a highly standardized research instrument, there was no way of avoiding this problem but I decided to broaden my research design according to the concerns conveyed to me. Thus, I would like to conduct a group discussion with fan fiction authors where they will have the opportunity to freely talk about their experience without being bound by narrow questions like in the survey.

Therefore, I am looking for Harry Potter fan fiction authors who will attend the LeakyCon 2009 from May 21st-24th in Boston and who would be willing to get together for an hour or two as a group to discuss their experience with me and the other fan fiction authors. As far as I can tell from the LeakyCon schedule, Saturday morning would probably work best to meet for the discussion. Also, it would give us a chance to get to know each other on Thursday or Friday. I will provide a space at the hotel where we will be undisturbed and make sure we have drinks and snacks. A group of 8-12 people would work best but if there are too few people for a group discussion, I would be happy to meet with any of you informally at LeakyCon to talk about your experience as a fan fiction author.

By participating in a group discussion, you would make an immense contribution to the quality and accuracy of my research. I am looking forward to meeting you in person and hearing about your life in Harry Potter fan fiction. If you want to participate please let me know until May 19th by replying to this message or at fanfictions@ gmx.net or petra.baumann@edu.uni-graz.at.

Thank you so much for your repeated help!
Best,
Petra

Harry Potter Fan Fiction - Help with MA thesis!

2009-04-15T23:18:27Z

Hello!
I hope it's OK that I'm posting this message here. I do not have any financial interest whatsoever, this message regards academic research only!

My name is Petra Baumann and I’m doing research for my master’s thesis in sociology on Harry Potter fan fiction at the University of Graz, Austria. As a sociologist, I am especially interested in the social background of fan fiction authors: where they come from, how old they are, etc. Through my research I found that, many studies on fan fiction are done in the fields of literary studies, women studies, or cultural studies but there are very little sociological data available, especially on the Harry Potter fan fiction community.

In order to gather sociological data on Harry Potter fan fiction authors, I developed a short online questionnaire. If you are an author of Harry Potter fan fiction you would immensely help me with my research if you could answer this questionnaire at
http://fanfiction.frontexperts.com

The questions will take about 10 minutes to answer and there will be no spam or advertising when you click the link. The evaluation is done anonymously and the data will be used solely for academic research. If you have any questions regarding the questionnaire or my research please feel free to contact me at fanfictions@gmx.net or visit my LifeJournal.

Thank you!
Best,
Petra

Fiery Inception HP RPG, Canon to HBP, AU after, post-war

2008-03-11T16:22:26Z

Fiery Inception

Banner by Woody, x24hoursx

Nearly two years of role-playing excellence!
Canon-compliant through the events of Halfblood Prince, AU to Deathly Hallows.
If you are looking for quality writing as well as fun play, Fiery Inception is the game for you!

Are you tired of one-liners and no character development? Tired of games that die after a few months as Muns get bored and move on to the next round of inspiration?

Our game setting began three years after the end of HBP. We are AU to the events of Deathly Hollows. We have a LOT of fun exploring the Wide Wizarding World beyond Hogwarts (no Mun-played students or classes), dabbling in politics, character-developed businesses and careers, Ministry idiocy, scary situations with Greyback and other still-lingering Death Eaters and much more.

We are an epic-style game, nearly two years old and going strong! If you are a long-term player with a dedication to character development and in-depth character exploration, this is the game for you!

Game * Plot * Rules * Available Characters * Application * Lurker Community
Admin Contact Information: fiery_inception@yahoo.com

--No 'one liners'!
--Slash-friendly but realistic!
--Very involved plots - both admin and player-driven!
--Creative game premise with plenty of room for player sub-plots!
--Excellent writing quality!
--Player and Admin dedication is exemplary!
--Paid Main community for better layout, organization and commitment - we are here for the long haul.
--Strong Admin commitment to accept only high-quality players to keep overall game quality HIGH.

"In ashes of despaire, though burnt, shall make thee live." --Sir Philip Sidney, Arcadia

Canon through HBP. Please note: As the game setting began three years beyond HBP, Muns have complete liberty in regards to HBP romantic and interpersonal relationships.
Game-time began in 2000, now is 2002, began the day after Voldemort's defeat, March 1, 2000
ALTERNATE-UNIVERSE TO DEATHLY HALLOWS! Some of your favourite, post-DH-lamented characters are alive and well with us!
Age 18 and up, only
Original adult characters permitted, must be at least 5 years older than the Trio, see rules for specific guidelines.
Please Note: The Admin team for this game consists of three individuals ranging in age from 27 to 40, most of whom have played together for over three years. This is not a fly-by-night, quick to die game! Apply with confidence!

The Ministry of Magic, determined to prevent the rise of yet another 'Dark Lord', has gone to extremes to try to get control of the more 'dangerous' segments of the population by implementing a strict Registry and tracking-device program.

There are many Death Eaters and their supporters still at large who have avoided the Registry process altogether and are just waiting for someone to lead them. Fenrir Greyback, too, is still quite at liberty and has his own brand of fear-wielding power.

Hogwarts School, Headed by Minerva McGonagall, reopened after reconstruction and the Headmistress has enacted sweeping changes to the Sorting System. Minerva McGonagall has planted herself firmly against the Ministry's institutionalised prejudice.

The 'average Joe' just wants to be left alone, to rebuild their lives, work at their jobs, raise their families and not live in constant fear anymore!

Tired of the chaos, Arthur Weasley and Lucius Malfoy have both begun to pursue the path toward Minister for Magic. The season leading up to the summer elections promises to be very interesting.

With so much Ministry, Political, Death Eater and Werewolf plots in which to play, there is always room for more characters to join the fun!

Hyperlinks take you to any relevant, existing history of the characters and/or general game information regarding character-types:

Neville Longbottom, Bill Weasley, and other Death Eaters, Order of the Phoenix Members, and general adult populace and Ministry workers.

We have a player-driven request for more politically neutral characters! The world is in flux and with the current race for Minister, the swing vote is essential! If you've ever thought there was no place for your Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw to shine, then look here! With so much going on, they are sure to get plot and activity!

Luna Lovegood would be welcome and would walk into a society more willing to believe and subscribe to the Quibbler than the Prophet due to recent events!

We also have a request that Daphne would love to have her little sister about! Astoria would walk into a mesh of plots regarding love, politics and family!

Kinsgley Shacklebolt, Sturgis Podmore, Alastor Moody, Sybill Trelawney, Malcom Baddock, Vincent Crabbe, Blaize Zabini, Theodore Nott, Padma Patil, Parvati Patil, Angelina Johnson, Stewart Ackerly, Eddie Carmichael, Michael Corner, Ernie MacMillian, Justin Finch-Fletchley, Emma Dobbs, Eloise Midgen, and many others are still open.

Original Adult Characters! - Non-Sue/Stu Original adult characters (at least 5 years older than the Trio) are welcome! Join one of the few SERIOUS CANON-honouring games which actively recruits for and allows OC's!

Harry Potter fanmix

2008-02-22T15:08:00Z

Medium: Books/Films
Fandom: Harry Potter
Subject: Angsty!Harry Potter
Title: Sympathy For The Martyr

Notes: This is for those few who appreciate angsty, angry, depressed Harry - specifically during OOTP. Because, really, what do you expect from a teenager with the world literally on their shoulders and a madman on their backs? The songs become more angry/desperate as the mix progresses, and if you're being lyrics-specific, they all relate to different relationships or situations in Harry's life (of course), and some songs relate to multiple aspects. There's some stuff about Voldemort, Harry's friends, etc.

What have I become, my sweetest friend? Everyone I know goes away in the end.

The final battle was not the end.
It was only the beginning of a state of anarchy. When Harry defeated Voldemort, the Wizarding World was left with no one to lead. People naturally assumed Harry would take charge, but Harry wanted no part of it. He’d accepted his destiny and he was ready for a normal life. No one was comfortable trusting the Ministry of Magic now despite their attempts to get everything under control. Order was restored at Azkaban, but so far, that was all that the Ministry was capable of doing. Many of the Deatheaters had been forced to go underground and determine a new plan to rule and continue to purify the Wizarding race. However, other Deatheaters have denied allegiance to the Dark Lord, saying that they were under the Imperius curse, similar to the last war. The few that were captured and imprisoned were left to the Dementors.

The general Wizarding community attempts to rebuild. The deaths were numerous; including Mad-Eye Moody, Rufus Scrimgeour, Vincent Crabbe, Dobby, Hedwig, and Tonks. Remus Lupin and Fred Weasley were severely injured but after some time at St. Mungo’s managed to survive. Everyone was affected by the war in some way. Many people lost loved ones, but businesses and homes were also destroyed. Hogwarts was almost completely in ruins and is only beginning to be rebuilt. The students are being taught in homes or have moved to attend other schools until Hogwarts can rebuilt. Many people are broke and re-establishing their businesses for those who have the money.

Voldemort may be dead, but the cause is not. In the Dark Lord’s wake, the Wizarding community is left in shambles. His death was not the end, but the beginning of an era of uncertainty, reconstruction, and turmoil.

Come check out Scar of Conquest, an unrated, anything goes RP Soap Opera! Het & Slash friendly. We’ve been open for 2+ years and are currently revamping. We will be mostly canon from DH (with a few exceptions). No OCs are allowed, but there are lots of characters to choose from. If you're a novice or experienced player, you'll fit right in. Players must be 18+ years old. Mature themes and dark themes exist within this RP.

Interested? Application can be found HERE. Fill it out and E-mail it to us!

A Harry Potter ezine

2007-12-20T21:54:03Z

Hi everyone,
A few months ago, I was toddling around LJ asking people's opinion about starting a fandom magazine. The general consensus was that it would work better as an ezine, at least to start off with.

Well, it's been a few months in the making, but the debut issue of "Cauldrons and Chocolate Frogs" is now available here if you're interested! It features an interview with cleolinda, as well as a fan fashion spread and a quick interview with The Whomping Willows, among other things. There's also a livejournal group to join for updates, and sneak previews, over at ccf_chocolates.

I hope you like it, feel free to comment either way :)

~Lauren.
