HOGWARTS: A {F o r g o t t e n} Era
The year is 1977. The Marauders are now in their 7th year. Hogwarts is full of students, more students than they've ever had before. Of course, this only makes Hogwarts a bigger threat in the eyes of the Dark Lord.
Order members are secretly planted throughout the school, while aurors are visably planted. Dumbledore will go to any lengths to make his school one of the most protected places in the entire wizarding world. Fortunately, the students haven't really noticed any changes, excluding the aurors. They've certainly got their work cut out for them though, being at Hogwarts. The students simply see them as a whole new batch of people to play tricks on.
The Order is growing in numbers every day, and their power now rivals that of the Death Eaters. Dumbledore has several smaller groups formed within the Order of the Phoenix, who watch certain cells of Death Eaters and then provide their information to Order Members within the Ministry. Certain Hogwarts students have been made privledge to information given out by the Order of the Phoenix, but so far they haven't convinced Dumbledore to let them join.
Lord Voldemort is infuriated, because he's aware Dumbledore is plotting against him but has no information of the Order. However, he has a spy who's gaining tons of information from his friends, and he's just waiting for one last key piece to come his way before taking all of his knowledge to the Dark Lord. This "spy" is Peter Pettigrew, and the other three Marauders have no clue about just how bad it is to tell quiet Peter anything.
The Death Eaters have been given orders by their Lord to kill at random, and they certainly follow those orders. Deaths, both in the muggle and wizarding world, have increased by a tenfold in the past few years, thanks to this little gang of hardcore hoodlums. They've not only been using spells to kill people, but they've also started investigating muggle ways, such as shooting and poisoning.
As the first war continues to grow, so do the deaths, and the conversions. What part will you play? Come find out, and join in the fun at Hogwarts: A Forgotten Era.
