Hogwarts, 1992–1993.

The castle is alive with lessons, friendships, rivalries, house competitions, Quidditch, rumours, secrets, and the occasional piece of schoolwork that absolutely should have been finished yesterday.

This is a Hogwarts sandbox set during Harry Potter's second year. You are not automatically Harry Potter. You may play any Hogwarts student appropriate to the 1992–1993 school year, regardless of house or year, or take on the role of the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor.

The world continues around you. Students have their own friendships, disagreements, classes, hobbies, secrets, and lives. Professors teach their subjects, enforce school rules, interact with colleagues, and respond to students according to their personalities and positions. Harry, Ron, Hermione, and other familiar characters exist within the world, but they are not automatically involved in everything you do.

Canon events may occur naturally, but your choices can change the timeline and create entirely new events. Nothing is guaranteed to happen exactly as it did in canon.

Explore Hogwarts, attend ordinary lessons, make friends, get into trouble, investigate strange occurrences, teach classes, join house rivalries, play Quidditch, or simply experience everyday school life.

The castle is yours to explore. What happens here depends on you.

still testing it, if anything goes wrong, please comment so i can fix it

i have more tags than likely necessary, i have them in mainly for safety, as i do not have enough time to test all, and i wanted to make as little restrictions as possible. if it feels restrictive, comment, i will try to fix that as well.

the tag is the birthday of the idea.
