The year 2000 was an eventful time for the world. For Muggles, digital technology began to hit its peak, placing computers, laptops, and cell phones in more homes than ever before. For wizarding folk, the scourge of Voldemort had been eradicated for three blissful years, and the residents of magical Britain were finally getting used to peace once again. The new millennium marked a time of change and innovation for all, heralding new ideas, blessings, and challenges for both sides of humanity to face.
In the year 2000, a couple gave birth to a squealing baby girl. Far away, an enchanted quill marked her down in a book with infinite pages. And history was forever changed.

Welcome to my quest! It'll have a more concrete name once the protagonist's name is chosen -- 'Hogwarts: 20 Years Later' is a working title I picked to have an initial thread title. As you probably gathered, this is a Harry Potter quest starting in the year 2011, following a girl as she studies at Hogwarts and saves the world. You know, the usual.
The system for this quest will be Harry Potter and the Tabletop RPG, along with some house rules that I will introduce as they become relevant. For those of you who don't want to read the pdf, I'll explain the appropriate mechanics when they come up and edit them in here when I do.
Character creation will mostly be done narratively, with a character sheet posted at the end.

Good combo, LordPanther, but I changed the last name so that we're not the daughter of Zacharias Smith.

Sounds appropriately witchy.

Half-bloods tend to be rather powerful.

Though I still want her to grow up in the wizarding world.

Oh, by the way, specify if you have a preference for a middle name. Otherwise, the first name that gets the second most votes will be the middle name.
