Please use the new version of this application thread if you want to register for index:viewtopic.php?t=29084
INDEX REGISTRATION

Registration is the process that gets your character added to our site's Official Index by writing a Character Page in the Character section of the Encyclopedia (Link). Once your character has been approved, your name will be added to the Official Index by a moderator. Registration recognizes your character's place in the site's timeline and grants you access to parts of the site that cannot be used otherwise. This step is mandatory for those who wish to participate in:
  • Main Story
  • Sports (Duelling, Quidditch, Broom Racing)
  • Seasonal Events (Fall Ball, Spring Ball, some summer camp activities)
  • Graduation
  • Casting spells
If you decide to not register, you will still be able to be part of the community by doing homework for house points and by writing roleplays with the condition that you keep your background story from validation on your profile in the "additional information" section. However, you will not be able to graduate with your character's peers and will end up repeating the school year. For this reason among others, registration is highly recommended.

So what do you have to do to get registered? You must create a character encyclopedia page and post in this thread to let the index team know your page is ready to be reviewed! If your character page does not meet the below requirements when you register, an index team member will owl you and work with you to fix any problems.

ABOUT THE CHARACTER ENCYCLOPEDIA PAGE

The Character Page serves as a 'one-stop' area that chronicles your adventures here in Hogwarts. It also shows other players who you are and serves as a location where you can place your stats and spells so that you can enter moderated situations such as duels, Quidditch, adventures, etc.

The following is the information we expect to see in your character encyclopedia. There are two required posts - Basics/Pre-Hogwarts History and the Trunk (which will hold your character's stats and abilities) - that have to be in your character's encyclopedia page to get approved. You are allowed to add on "extra" posts if you require more space or information to suit your needs and play-style, such as an RPG tracker post or a Relationships post.

In order to keep the same template for each character page, your title will have to respect the following order.
Title of your character page: Firstname Surname, School Year, House
The following two posts are required, but you can have more posts that expand on other aspects of your character.
(Post one) Basics and Pre-Hogwarts History (Mandatory)
(Post two) Trunk (Mandatory)
The first post of your character page has to include the following information:
Full Name:
House:
Age:
Wand:
School Year:
Patronus: (Not applicable until 6th years - leave this empty)
Species: (Human, Part-Giant, Part-Veela, etc.) Must [register] and get approved if you want to play a non-human or special talent.
History/Background Story: This would be your character’s life prior to Hogwarts (Including their first accidental magic) as well as what has happened during your time at Hogwarts. The backstory section must be over 220 words, not including the personality, appearance and your time already spent in Hogwarts!

For pre-Hogwarts history, please include when and where they were born, describe their childhood, describe their lineage, relatives and friends, describe what kind of education they received prior to attending Hogwarts (please keep this canon—no invented magical schools), describe your character's personality and interests. If you are including your character getting their acceptance letter, please remember, muggle-born students (or students whose families were unaware of the magical world) do not get owls, they get a professor to personally hand deliver the letter and explain what being a wizard entails. Unless you get OOC permission from a specific professor, you can simply say an unnamed professor gave them the letter. Lastly, include your character's early instances of accidental, wandless magic as a child and the reaction of their family to it. An example of what we're looking for concerning young, accidental magic is below.

Reducio
"The problem was, strange things often happened around Harry and it was just no good telling the Dursleys he didn't make them happen. Once, Aunt Petunia, tired of Harry coming back from the barbers looking as though he hadn't been at all, had taken a pair of kitchen scissors and cut his hair so short he was almost bald except for his bangs, which she left "to hide that horrible scar." Dudley had laughed himself silly at Harry, who spent a sleepless night imagining school the next day where he was already laughed at for his baggy clothes and taped glasses. Next morning, however, he had gotten up to find his hair exactly as it had been before Aunt Petunia had sheared it off. He had been given a week in the cupboard for this, even though he had tried to explain that he couldn't explain how it had grown back so quickly."—Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Chapter 2, J.K. Rowling
Young wizards have random, uncontrollable manifestations of magic, which most commonly occurs any time from birth to the age of seven. For wizard families, these moments are celebratory milestones. For muggle families, however, they are often considered odd, inexplicable, or even fearsome phenomena. When describing your character's first instance of accidental magic, please keep in mind the family your character comes from, and make sure the incident follows these rules:

-Typically happens when a young wizard or witch is feeling strong emotions such as anger, fear, or sadness, or is acting in self-defense.
-If a child has magical ability, they will usually exhibit it by the age of seven, but it can happen from eight to ten, and must occur before the age of eleven. We will not accept "squib" characters who have never done magic, because these characters would have been skipped over during the Hogwarts selection process (see the Quill of Acceptance and the Book of Admittance resource below for more detail).
-Must be accidental.
-Must be wandless. Your character cannot pick up their parent's wand and successfully repeat a spell they once heard and this moment will occur before your character gets their own wand.
-Must be mundane. See Harry's hair growing back. We will not accept anything extreme like your character blowing up buildings.
-Must not result in death to another character. Minor injury is accepted.

Here are links to additional wiki/pottermore resources for your character backstory development:
-First Magic Tutorial
-Underage magic and accidental magic.
-The Quill of Acceptance and the Book of Admittance.[/size]
The trunk post of your character page must include the following information:
Character Stats (a numeric value for stamina, evasion, strength, wisdom, arcane power, and accuracy)
Spells
Potions
Abilities

You must have your character's stats filled out (more information in the reducio below), but the other sections are likely to be empty.

You must follow the trunk standards laid out beneath the Standardised Trunk Post heading below.

If you are an adult character, you will have a 5th section called the "adult advancement log" which you can find out more about here: viewtopic.php?t=27669#stats.
Reducio
Character Stats: This is your character’s stats (stamina, evasion, strength, wisdom, arcane power, and accuracy). You choose these stats yourself based on what your character would prevail in. If you are playing a human, you start your first year with 35 points in total with no more than 10 points per category. If you are playing a part-human or a special talent, you start your first year with 30 stat points total with no more than 10 points per category. Please select stats as whole numbers—we will not accept decimals. More details on the 6-Stat-System can found here.

Reducio
Stamina: This serves as a numerical representation of how durable a player is.
Evasion: This is how good a player is at avoiding attacks.
Strength: This is how physically powerful a player is. This is used in grapple checks and non-magical physical actions.
Wisdom: This is a representation of how good someone is at casting a spell, controlling magical items and finding/noticing things that might otherwise remain unseen.
Arcane Power: Much like how strength demonstrates how powerful a player is physically, this stat is used to determine how damaging a player’s spells are.
Accuracy: This represents how accurate an action is, physical or magical.


Spells Known: This is a list of your known spells. Spells can be learned by doing homework. For new users, the homework module is unlocked once the user hits both 20 posts (doesn't have to be role-plays) and 10 full days onsite. Spells can also be learned by graduating. Once your character graduates to the next year, they will automatically learn all spells offered in the previous year's homework even if you did not complete it.

Potions Known: This is a list of your known potions. Potions are also learned by homework or graduation, like with spells.

Abilities: This is what makes you a little different from other players. By taking on a special race or by remaining human, each have statistical as well as roleplay advantages. Players who chose to play a special race must do so within 30 days of validation onto the site. This is an important measure because being a special race is a very big part of who your character is and it will be hard for your character as well as the other players who have roleplayed with you to reconcile the fact that you have suddenly become a half-giant for instance. More information regarding our special races and abilities can be found (here). You can apply for special abilities or a race here: viewtopic.php?t=6271


When your character is approved, a moderator will change the poster of your trunk to the Game Master account, meaning the post will look like it came from the Game Master but all of the content YOU wrote will be in there. Once the trunk post is under the Game Master account, you will lose access to the edit button. This is done to prevent cheating. If you would like to update your trunk with new spells/potions and stat updates after it has been locked in this way, please go to our Encyclopedia Update Thread!

Once your character has been approved, you cannot make any major backstory changes without alerting index to theses changes. To be clear - you can write things like your dad gets married in future and add that to your story on your own without running it by index. But if you are changing things that were approved during this registration process - like you originally wrote your character is an only child, but now you want them to have a mysterious older sibling - you need to alert index to these changes. To propose these backstory changes, you'll need to go to this thread: Index Re-Application

STANDARDISED TRUNK POST

We realize that the Trunk is part of everyone's Encyclopedia and thus people naturally desire to make it fit with the overall design. However, fixing broken trunk codes takes up a lot of time on the end of staff with updating your profiles, and makes it more difficult for moderators and other players to quickly refer to your stats and abilities. As such, all trunks must adhere to the following guidelines (note: those trunks that have not been updated since 17 May 2020 are grandfathered in with existing designs, any amendments to update those stats must fit to the standardised guide):
  • Your trunk should have four clearly labeled areas - statistics, abilities, potions and spells. If you are an adult character, you will have a 5th section called the "adult advancement log" which you can find out more about here: viewtopic.php?t=27669#stats
    • If you have won extra stat points through sports games, those games must be linked in your trunk code for clear papertrail.
  • Your trunk post may contain one picture.
    • This can be a header, a picture at the bottom, or in the middle. It does not matter if it's a small picture or a large picture. However, It is not allowed to create a picture with all information and post that as the trunk! The picture is meant for decoration. Stats, Spells, Potions etc have to be written out - not posted as a picture (this is to account for the event that the picture link breaks).
  • One reducio under each category may be used.
    • Countless recudios within reducios have been the cause of broken trunks. Since the lists get longer the older the students are, one reducio is allowed for easy access to spells and potions.
  • No more than two quote boxes within each other is allowed.
    • You can either do a big one and one for each category or one for each category and then for the spells, it does not matter. As long as there are not more than two layers of quote boxes.
  • The order of things can be chosen freely.
    • It does not matter if you sort your spells alphabetically by name or incantation or if you want to make separate sections for Jinx, Charms, Curses etc, as long as they are written out in a list form. You can use the coded list form or any other punctuation.
  • No tables.
    • All information has to be in list form. Tables tend to break the easiest and are therefore not allowed within the trunk.
  • No colored font, no special font, no font under size 100%. No inline code.
    • You can go bigger, but not under 100% of size for all your text. The trunk mainly is for mod use, therefore the moderator has to quickly read and see the information of each student. Trunks have to be readable on all platforms alike.
Here's a look at a trunk that follows these guidelines:

REGISTRATION APPLICATION FORM

After you have created your character page, you must let our team know that it's ready to review. To do so, you must write a post in this thread with the form below:

Code: Select all

[b]Character name (First and last name):[/b] 
[b]School Year or Adult Level:[/b] 
[b]Link to the character page:[/b]
[b]Character Statistics:[/b]
[b]Character Backstory:[/b] 
And then you're done! Please allow up to two weeks for the staff to review your registration. You will get an owl if edits are needed.

IMPORTANT NOTES
  • All mandatory pieces of information must be provided for your page to be accepted. We will not be accepting owls concerning this; you will be expected to post it in your character page.
  • When you first create your character page in the Characters section, a link to it will automatically generate into your profile (it is the button that looks like an ID card underneath your profile picture), so you will not be required to add your own direct link to your encyclopedia anywhere. However, do NOT delete the first post of your existing encyclopedia thread or create a new encyclopedia thread, as this will override the generated link. If you want to make changes to your character page, you may edit/delete the existing replies or make new replies within the existing thread, but do not delete the first post.
  • Your first post's background story must be coherent and respecting the basic rules.
  • Your trunk post must abide by the guidelines laid out in this thread
  • Your character stats must be included in your registration post
  • You will notice that blood status is not on the Index registration form, that is because your profile is considered to be the source of truth regarding your blood status. In character you may think you are a different blood status or even lie, but out of character we will use this as a source of truth.
  • If something on your profile is in error, during your first month and initial registration (please note the AND) you can ask Index with your registration for changes to your residence, nationality and blood status. This needs to make sense in your bio, match the setting (you cannot live in Miami and go to Hogwarts, sorry) and does not contradict anything you have already written.
QUESTIONS?

The following tutorial goes into even more detail about what we are looking for in a character page: viewtopic.php?f=169&t=6534. If you have any other registration-specific questions, please owl Opeila Winters or Emery Featherstone.
