Friendly House rivalry through our monthly House Cup!

Members can earn House Points through a variety of activities on the server. The winning House earns several benefits, including:

• Their House will be hoisted for the following month, showing their members above the other Houses.
• All members of the House will receive 2,000 Galleons (server currency). Uses for server currency are explained below.
• The server icon will be changed to the color corresponding to the winning House.
• The monthly House Cup winners also get bragging rights for the following month, and a shiny House Cup decorated in their House colors posted in their House Common Room.
  

Optional Classes based on the actual curriculum students studied in the books!

Our Class Prep and Professor volunteer teams work together to create google slides classes that have similar content to what students learned in the books. At the end of each class is a quiz that is based on the information presented. The classes are optional, but are a fun way to learn more about the Wizarding World and earn House Points at the same time.

Active VC, including VC Events!

Members gather in the VC channels on the server frequently to listen to music, sing, karaoke, and hang out with friends. Anyone who has chatted on the server for a bit will receive the VC role, which provides them with the opportunity to join in these fun, impromptu VCs.

VC Events take place regularly, with the most common being a Homework VC, where members get together to listen to lofi music while doing work. Other VC Events include karaoke, bingo, and spelling bees.

Harry Potter themed Werewolves/Town of Salem Mafia games!

Our Mafia games are a fun, engaging, long-term game that takes place over the course of approximately two weeks. Members sign up in advance, and then are randomly assigned a character role with varying special abilities. Based on the role they're assigned, members are part of either the Order or the Death Eaters.

The Death Eaters work together in a private channel during the game nights to kill members of the Order. They get one kill per night, with bonus kills from other Death Eaters depending on their abilities.

The Order are unknown to each other, but have abilities that allow for information sharing during nights. During the day, the Order must work together to weed out the Death Eaters for a daily lynch. Information gathered during nights can be used to sway the day decisions, but revealing your role unless absolutely necessary is prohibited.

The games rely heavily on attention to detail, cunning, and the ability to stay calm under pressure. These games have become a staple of the server, and there is usually a waitlist for members who weren't able to sign up in time.

Hidden channels & features unlocked through purchasing roles from our custom, interactive bots for more fun!

Hogwarts School is home to three private, custom bots.

• Stars is a self-hosted Nadeko bot with personalized customizations for the server. Stars is used for many moderation features on the server, as well as some other fun features. A lot of words and phrases have been added as custom reactions, and members have the ability to purchase quotes.
• Gray Lady is a second, self-hosted Nadeko bot. Gray Lady is not used for moderation at all, however, our secondary currency is set up with her. Gray Lady spawns galleons in many of our major chat channels, as well as having many spells as custom reactions. These spells can be used throughout the entire server (with some exceptions).
• HogwartsBot is a fully custom bot coded specifically for us. The majority of the commands were coded by our former admin, ghostbot#2292. These commands include a variety of moderation and fun, including a special, role limited command for slapping people as an obscurus, or adding bonus House Points for achieving the high honor of Order of Merlin. HogwartsBot is also used for general utilities, such as modmail, adminmail, Muggle Relation requests, tracking the House Cup, and more.

Daily Trivia & Games and Weekly Movie Nights!

Thanks to our amazing team of volunteers, we are able to host games and events multiple times every day. The times vary, but we do our best to accommodate members in all timezones. A typical week on the server will look something like this:

Weekly Audiobook Club and Script Reads!

I hope you noticed that the schedule above shows two events that are longer than usual and have the same name. The Audiobook & Script Read events are a set of two events that rotate and repeat weekly.

The schedule for these events is as follows:

Week One:

Friday night from 9:00 - 11:30pm EST: Audiobook VC Event

Saturday morning from 10:00am - 12:30pm EST: Script Reading VC Event

Week Two:

Friday night from 9:00 - 11:30pm EST: Script Reading VC Event

Saturday morning from 10:00am - 12:30pm EST: Audiobook VC Event

The script reading and audiobook sections that are done in week one are repeated in week two. Alternating the schedules this way allows us to accommodate all of our members, regardless of timezones.

Book Club to read and discuss the books we all love together!

Join our members as we reread the Harry Potter books, with discussions for each section. The weekly discussions ask about various themes and topics, designed to make you really think and question various events from the storyline.

Weekly team building activities to promote friendship and camaraderie within your chosen House!

Members are asked a question each week for discussion in the common rooms. These questions are to help everyone get to know each other better, with the added bonus of earning House Points for it!

Senior Staff

Our Senior Staff team is made up of nine individuals who have been on the server for the majority of its life. These members have helped create, build, and shape the server into what it is now, and are vital to the survival and integrity of how we operate.

Meet the Senior Staff!

Brill (Brill#8888)

To you, I’m Brill. To them, I’m Brill... unless I say otherwise. I probably won’t though, so don’t get your hopes up. I only love two things: my dog, Winnie, and sarcasm. If I can't contribute to the conversation without using either of those, I’m out. I’m a loyal friend, although I’ll never admit it. I’ll never say "I love you" or give you a hug because I show affection through sarcasm. With that being said, you can easily tell which people I love. Certainly not Motions, and it sure as hell ain’t Genie. Keep shit organized and out of my way and we’ll never have a problem. Take what's mine and get ready to feel the pain like a pimple that will never reach the surface.

Brill is the Founder of the server, and is both a co-owner and an admin.

Motions (Repetitive Motions#4040)

Heyoo! I'm Motions! Some people call me RM, others will call me Healing. I worked with Brill to create this special little corner of the internet for our members to call home. I manage most of the day-to-day operations of the server, and do a lot of work behind-the-sceens. I'm so proud of what the server has grown into, and it has been amazing getting to know our userbase.

Outside of the server, I'm a Graphic Designer and a student. I love photography, and have started to realize that web development and coding are quite a lot of fun. I have an adorably mischievous kitten named Misty, and I'm a huge Cleveland sports fan.

Motions is the Co-Founder of the server, and is both a co-owner and an admin.

Phoenix (Phoenix#1817)

Hi, I am Phoenix (but everyone only ever calls me Nix). I break quite often. When I am not breaking you can find me in a lab, or doing art, all the while listening to an eclectic collection of music. Serverwise, I am a jane of all trades.

Phoenix is a member of the following Staff Teams: Admins, Prefects, Quidditch Captains, Head Professors.

Shen (Pika Shen#0025)

Hai, my name is Pika Shen! You can call me Shen for short. I enjoy playing all kind of video games, including: PUBG, Fortnite, Minecraft and League of Legends.

I have a huge amount of Pikachu profile pics and emotes, however my favorite Pokémon is Totodile!

Genie (DrunkenGenie#0201)

I’m a Genie by the name of Rachel. I reside in an old tea pot in a dainty cafe somewhere in New York City. If you tell me a dirty joke I’ll grant you a wish. But if your joke is terrible, prepare to spend 1,000 years forced to walk on Legos. I’ve been told I can be intimidating, but I promise I’m very approachable. Wanna sit and talk? I’m your gal. In the mood for an adventure? I’ll lead the way. I love neo soul music and my imaginary pet raptor, Jasmine. No matter how I word this it’s going to sound like a dating profile. Oh well.

Genie is a member of the following Staff Teams: Muggle Relations, Head of House (Gryffindor), Prefects, Head Professors (in training).

Sonic (supersonic9678#9363)

Hi, I'm Sonic. I write, do art, and can play multiple instruments. I tend to be a very private person, however, and only really tell anything about myself to the people I trust. I'm also the person responsible for repairing Phoenix when she is broken.

Maddie is a member of the following Staff Teams: Prefects, Quidditch Captains (in training).

tsanami (tsanami#1403)

I’m tsanami, and no that’s not an accidental typo on "tsunami". I’m in my second year of college. I’m from California and when I’m not chatting in the Hogwarts Discord server, I’m observing penguin politics, reading, or riding my bike. I have a black cat who is my feline problem child and he’s the only pet I currently have, probably because he’s a handful. I have a love for jokes and puns of any sort (for those who know, my name "tsanami" is a pun). I also enjoy keeping people on their toes with sarcasm, though I usually try not to take it too far to avoid unintentional drama. I’ve travelled to a lot of different places both in and outside of the United States, one of which is usually the Netherlands for visiting family members.

tsanami is a member of the following Staff Teams: Prefects.

Wolfie (Wolfie#9393)
