Welcome to Salem!
NEWS: 28 March 2013

We closed for a couple of hours in order to bring you a shiny site full of new graphics and prettier colors! Wooo! We've also updated the plot, and we're welcoming former Death Eaters into our characters. They won't stay free forever, so claim them while you can!

NEWS: 29 December 2012

Well, with the damp squib that was the Mayan "apocalypse" and the glittering mid-winter festival season out of the way, we should see activity perk back up here at SI. Between family events and shiny new gifts that need playing with over the holidays, everyone's been a bit distracted. The new year will see some amazing new plots, and the introduction of some new allies for the Tarot, and some new enemies for them too!

SALEM TUMBLR

Salem Institute is now on Tumblr! We'll post graphics and ads for the site there, and maybe do a teensy bit of recruiting too. Follow us if you're on Tumblr!


Quick Start

QUICK LOG-IN:


Welcome to Salem! We are a literate, intermediate to advanced board set after the Wizarding War against Voldemort, located in North America. There is no wordcount, all we ask is that you strive for at least two paragraphs per post.

The current year is 2013, current season is Spring, and we follow what was canonically established in the Harry Potter books, while adding and embellishing the information J.K. Rowling has provided.

Please be warned, this site contains possible spoilers for all seven Harry Potter books (and the three supplementary books Quidditch Through The Ages, Fantastic Beast And Where To Find Them, and The Tales Of Beedle The Bard), and may contain spoilers for Pottermore. If you don't wish to be spoiled, we recommend you read the books, and register on Pottermore ASAP!

Please register with your character's full name, with proper capitalisation. Only staff can change your registered name after the fact, so it's easier to register properly straight off the bat.

The current year is 1000 AD.

Hogwarts has been running for 10 years, founded by four witches and wizards from each corner of Britain: Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw and Salazar Slytherin. The greatest wizarding families have sent their children to the school to learn how to use their magic, but there are tensions. The founders each prize one attribute over another, and Slytherin isn't happy that his companions have decided to allow half bloods and muggleborn students into the school. Will he learn to accept their decision or will he concoct something more sinister?

Outside of Hogwarts, the situation is just as volatile. In a time before Ministries of Magic, society is left with a Wizards' Council, a court that revolves around the Council Chief, the equivalent of the muggle Kings. Both England (combined with Wales) and Scotland have separate Councils and, whilst their muggle counterparts are at war with one another, the Councils aren't finding it so easy to work together either.


Many Canon Families available! Own Characters welcome and encouraged!
