Adult System
After Hogwarts
Once your student completes their seventh year at Hogwarts, their story does not end. They are able to enter into the wizarding world at large. During the month of July and August, adults/graduates from Hogwarts apply for positions. Some positions require OWLS and NEWTS, others require neither, and there are multiple levels of positions to work towards. These levels are: entry-level, intermediate level, expert level and master level.
Once in a position, the user needs to roleplay their role in 3 threads during the year (before the next change period in July/August) in order to move up to another position. These threads can be solos (with very high word counts) or in threads with other members requiring much smaller word counts and usually a couple of posts. Alternatively, once a user reaches the level or job title they want to stick with for a long time, they do not have to "advance" to the next job every year and can choose to stay at their current job.
As the site remains "Hogwarts.io," a bulk of the activities, adventures and stories will be taking place at Hogwarts. Thus, in addition to your adult character, you will also be afforded the ability to make a new student character. This student character will become your new player character with your adult becoming a "bonus," reflective of the seven years of commitment you put into their development and their story. Once you have graduated, you will need to put the name of your new character in an application thread, so that it does not accidentally ping as a multi-account, and then you can start the journey all over again whilst also writing the continued story and epilogue of your adult character. More information on applying for your second character can be found here: [link]

Adult System
OWLs and NEWTs
In character, OWLs remain an examination that Hogwarts students take at the end of fifth year to measure their comprehensive knowledge of a subject. Achieving a passing grade (A, E, or O) in an OWL means that you will take advanced "honors-level" classes for that subject starting in sixth year, but here's where our site will differ slightly from canon. Instead of only taking your advanced-level classes in sixth year, you can still take all of the other classes at a standard level as well.
Why? This change is due to system limitations as well as our spell acquisition system -- classes give out our spells and house points and we have no way of "turning on" a class after the OWLS. So IC we had to explain why you are still gaining spells in your later years for classes you may not have an OWL for. Basically Hogwarts has changed in the way it works to give students more comprehensive knowledge, but the advanced honors-level classes granted by OWLs are what employers look for.
NEWTs operate the same as in canon, as they are given to seventh-year students at the end of their school career to measure their knowledge of whatever subjects that student chooses.
Some of the career paths in the Adult System require an OWL and/or NEWT in a certain subject or multiple subjects. Also, there are restricted spell/potion abilities where you must have an OWL in that subject before you can take the ability.
How do I take the OWLs or NEWTs?
Taking the report card OWL/NEWT and getting a passing grade is the way to prove your character's status for the adult system. This means you can IC say your character achieved the OWL/NEWT if your report card shows a passing grade. This is a notable difference between the report card homework and the report card OWLs/NEWTs - report card homework is OOC and you can have straight Ts but claim your character is a straight O character (or the other way around). But with the report card OWLs/NEWTs, you have to have it on the report card to claim that your character achieved it.
When do the OWLs/NEWTs unlock in the report card?
They are accessible as soon as you are a fifth or seventh year. However, they cannot be accessed through the report card itself until you graduate to the next year. To access the OWLs as a fifth year or the NEWTs as a seventh year, go to the class you want to take, and click on the Lectures button at the top. This will take you to a list of accessible lectures, and in that list you will be able to access the OWLs or NEWTs.
What if I never want to take a NEWT or OWL exam? What if I fail?
NEWTs and OWLs, like all classes and homework, are optional systems. You can circumvent this if you fail, are a terrible test taker or just really do not want to do it by becoming a librarian aide for a year as a profession. The librarian aide job is a place where you have access to literature and have an opportunity to study. Essentially taking this job for the year allows a player to claim they earned (by taking an off-screen re-test at the Ministry) their OWL and NEWT in three subjects of their choice. Players can do this for multiple years and earn all their OWLS and NEWTS in this manner if they wish.
Do I have to do the OWL exam if I do the NEWT exam? In other words - if I have passed the NEWT, am I automatically considered to have passed the OWL too?
You must complete the OWL in order to have your NEWT. Passing the NEWT exam does not automatically give you the OWL prerequisite. So, if a job requires a NEWT in a subject, you must have both the OWL and the NEWT exam in your report card.
What about iNPCs?
The OWLs and NEWTs that your PC has are shared by the iNPC, just like how spells are shared between them. The job requirements and all other aspects of the adult system will work the same for iNPCs. You can apply for iNPC jobs in the same place as PC jobs, in a separate application post. The job title of iNPCs will be found in their trunk.

Jobs
Upon graduation (not expulsion), a character ceases to be considered a student and becomes an "adult" character. All adult characters can get a job. They will apply for this job in [link], a thread where they will fill out a simple form.
It is the players' responsibility to provide links to relevant threads and include screenshots of any OWLS or NEWTS that they might have accomplished. Users have two months [July and August] each year to place an application for a job. If they do not do this, they will simply keep the job that they already had, or if they have never taken a job, then remain an unemployed "adult."Character Name:
Encyclopedia:
Job Title: (the title from the official list)
Job Description: (you should provide a sentence or two on the specifics of where your character will be working and what their job is - eg if you choose Athlete you may want to specify they will be a Football player for team x, or if they are an Artisan you will want to specify that they sell crochet toys, etc)
Proof of Prerequisites: (link to rp threads, screenshot of OWLs/NEWTs, etc)
All new graduates from Hogwarts will be able to access Entry Level jobs. Entry Level jobs are jobs that any new graduate can do as long as they have met certain prerequisites. You will notice that some jobs (such as working at a shop) will require no additional prerequisites beyond being an adult and graduating from school. You will notice that other jobs (such as being an Auror in training) will expect you to have OWLS or even NEWTS in certain subjects before you can be accepted.
During the course of the year, your character would be in-character working in that role. To move up to next-level positions where you need to have experience at a lower-level, you will need to complete three roleplays over the course of a year and link them in your annual application. These threads can be solo threads where the roleplayer needs to write 2000 words, or they can be a thread with another player where they need to make 5 posts, meeting the site minimum of 200 words each (total 1000+ words from you, but takes longer to complete). The posts can be longer, but there needs to be at least 5 posts in the thread. This thread needs to be job related, so selling items in a shop if you are working in a shop, or mixing drinks if you are a bartender.
I wrote a really long solo thread related to my job. It is 7k! Can I use that to meet my three thread requirement?
What if the job I want is not listed? Can I make up a job?No, you need three separate threads. These threads cannot be "continuations" of previous threads where you purposefully split up your post into multiple parts or after making 5 posts in a single thread asked players to start a new thread to continue the present scenario.Can I claim to work for a canon or real-world store/sports team?No, but you can flavor the job that you presently have. If you want to do something specific, look for where your job idea would fall. If there is nothing that could represent the job that you are looking for, feel free to add a suggestion, particularly during the early-release time before players become adults in the next year. There are no promises that the profession will be added, but if they are, please be aware there will likely be several prerequisites to the job and it might not be tailored to your build.Can I make up a store or team? Can I make up dNPC coworkers and colleagues for my RPs?Yes, you can. You must add it into your job application itself in the "description" section so that staff are aware (eg you claim to be a first-string seeker for Holyhead Harpies). In the event of multiple people claiming the same role for the same team or shop, you would be coworkers and can RP as such (eg two first-string seekers might swap out during games, two bartenders at the Three Broomsticks can share/swap shifts etc).
You cannot be the singular owner of canon or real world stores/sports teams (eg, you cannot own Ollivander's or own the Weasley's joke shop). While you can work at the Daily Prophet, you cannot be the proprietor.Is there any OOC pay difference between levels of job?Yes to both, you can make up a store or sports team that your character works for/at. You can also have dNPC coworkers and employees. Be careful of giving them excessive dialogue or presence in your RPs.What about iNPCs?No. You gain 10 sickles a day and can collect that in Gringotts.The OWLs and NEWTs that your PC has are shared by the iNPC, just like how spells are shared between them. The job requirements and all other aspects of the adult system will work the same for iNPCs. You can apply for iNPC jobs in the same place as PC jobs, in a separate application post. The job title of iNPCs will be found in their trunk.
Stats and Abilities
As long as your adult character is on our official index, you will be able to advance yearly. A roman numeral will be added to your job title for every year you are on index and "move up," so that stat gains and ability gains can be easily tracked.
Adults update their trunk with new stats the same way they always have. Adults can advance in one of three ways every year (+5 stats, moving 5 stats, or one ability in exchange for end-game stat reduction). There are hard end-game caps (110 for humans, 105 for special race/talents) in addition to the individual stat cap (25). There is a point where a character can gain no more stats. This does not mean that they can no longer advance in the game, only that advancement looks "different." The advancement changes you choose will be tracked by a log in your trunk, noting which option you choose to take every year.
Adult characters can do one of three things with their yearly advancement:
Your trunk post must include an "Adult Advancement Log" that tracks what advancement you choose to take every year. Example:
- Gain 5 stat points.
They can allocate those 5 points to their stats as long as this does not break their individual stat cap (25) or the end-game cap (110 for humans, 105 for special race/talents), which is the sum of all of their stats. So if someone has 10 to their stamina, accuracy, evasion, arcane power, wisdom, and strength they would have a sum of 60. When that sum is 110 for humans or 105 for special race/talents, they have reached their cap. Once they have reached their end-game cap, then they can only do #2 and #3.- Move around 5 stats points.
They can "move" 5 points of stats from one stat to another. Essentially a player that has 15 in stamina and 9 in accuracy as an adult can move 5 points from stamina to their accuracy and have 10 stamina and 14 accuracy as a result. This is done with capped players that earned 5 stat points at the end of the year, as they cannot add more stats to their character they can instead move their stats around. How is this explained? Simple - with practice in the above example you became a better shot, but you're not running around like you used to any more. So you do not have as much stamina as you used to but you are a way better shot from years of practice. The same can be said for it to go the opposite way as well - you have not been practicing nearly as much as you used to so you are not as great of a shot as you used to be, but you have been eating healthier and joined a gym so your stamina is better than it has ever been.- Remove 5 stat points from your maximum and gain an ability instead.
You can reduce your character's caps and get a new ability instead. Abilities cap at your last year as a student. So you do not get both 5 points and an additional ability slot. However, you can forego gaining these 5 points at the end of the year and state you have lowered your end game cap so now you are able to flesh out your character's abilities a bit further. What is an end game cap? The end game cap is how many total stat points you can have. As an adult you have a cap of 25 per stat, however you cannot have 300 stat points as an end-game user. That would mean you are "the best" at everything. The cap is 110 for humans, 105 for special race/talents. This means that you can have 25 stamina, 25 wisdom, 25 accuracy, 25 arcane power, 10 evasion, 0 strength as a human at end game for example. There will always be places where others will be "better" than you. By reducing your cap by 5, you now have an end-game cap of 105. You will need to take those 5 points away from somewhere, your stats might look like this now: 20 stamina, 25 wisdom, 25 accuracy, 25 arcane power, 10 evasion and 0 strength.Adult Advancement Log:
2023/Adult I - gained 5 stat points
2024/Adult II - moved 5 stat points around
2025/Adult III - gained an ability in exchange for 5 end-game points
FAQ
Can my student forego their annual +5 stats to get a second ability for the year?Can my student change their stat allotment like in the adult system?No. This is something that is being used for the adult system to ensure long-term game play.
Do I have to be capped as an adult to make use of the stat allocation option or the additional ability option?No. This is something that is being used for the adult system to ensure long-term game play. In addition, your stat gains are a reflection of your growth and "growing up."
Am I limited on when I can make trunk updates to July and August?No. As an adult you can do either of these things while uncapped, however you will need to clearly document this.
I feel that I should not graduate from Hogwarts (as that is not the story I wish to have) but that I should be able to access any/all of these jobs.No. You can make trunk updates as you always have as a student. However, you can only update your vocation (job) once a year.
I am already capped and I am a student. What do I do?What you are talking about is the expulsion system. Information on the expulsion system can be found in [link]. You can do so, however the road will be longer and harder for a drop-out or an expelled student.What if I choose to keep my former professor as my second character?Starting stats are 30-35. You can gain up to 4 points in a given year from sports. You gain +5 annually. So by year 7, the highest you can possibly be is +24 stat points from sports and the expected +30 from graduation. This is not possible, until you become an adult, because you should have 89 stat points if you were very lucky. Your senior year you might earn another 9, so as you breech adulthood as a graduate you should have 98 stat points. You should be fine, don't worry!If a user chooses to keep access to their former professor account as one of the two accounts they can have, that former professor character will be expected to follow the adult system. They can find information in the job list's Staff at Hogwarts section.

Staff at Hogwarts
These roles are unique. They cannot be applied for through our adult job application, they are only available through our site's staff application process because they are actual site moderators. These characters automatically have a OWL and NEWT associated with their role listed below. If the character ends up holding different adult staff positions during their tenure, they only automatically gain the OWL and NEWT of the first position they held.
Users who resign from their site moderator role and have a former Hogwarts Staff account can choose to keep this character as their second character rather than making a new student character. In these cases, they can transfer into the adult system during the next summer when jobs can be applied for. They must meet the job prerequisites like any other character.
If your character was in staff for at least one year total, you can claim three more NEWTs (as well as the OWLs in the same subjects) and will be able to start at the intermediate level of any job path you meet the OWL/NEWT prerequisites for. This effect does not stack with the number of years you are staff, it is a one-time acquisition when you resign. These NEWTs (and corresponding OWLs) can be applied for using this application after you have resigned: viewtopic.php?t=27775
